:. in this story, the characters will be totally out of character in most parts for the sake of 1) the message and 2) to portray more about my life (mainly me and my girlfriend). Some aspects of the characters are changed, such as sakura's hair being more of a red than pink, and ino's hair being cut to about her jaw line. please only give constructive criticism, the reason these aspects were changed is because sakura portrays my girlfriend (whom has red/brown hair) and ino as me (whom has jaw line blonde hair). some of the ideas of the story were taken from a movie called "But I'm A Cheerleader". please enjoy .:
. . . . . . . . . .
It felt like the school day was never going to end…and Ino Yamanaka was getting more and more impatient! This was her day, every Friday in high school: get up, go to school, try to listen, spend time with her girlfriend, go home, go to bed, and then start all over again in the morning.
Yes…girlfriend…you heard me right!
As of two years ago, when she first started junior high in the eighth-grade, Ino realized something about herself. She began to truly notice how much she looked at other girls. "Isn't her hair lovely? What a nice outfit!" Little things like that brought her to this conclusion. Oddly enough, though, she wasn't the only one she knew that was a lesbian or even bi for that matter.
Temari Sabaku was the first girl she met whom she could tell right away was also…well…just like Ino.
It has been almost a year since they'd started dating. People at school, like Chouji and Shikamaru, already knew from the beginning. The problem was, even though Temari lives on her own with her younger brother Kankuro, Ino lives with her father and step mother who really aren't all for the homosexual idea. So…Ino's family has no idea and if they found out…anything could happen!
But for now, Ino sits waiting and watching the clock, counting the last few seconds until the bell would ring and she could finally get out of school. As she packed up her stuff quietly, so the teacher wouldn't notice through his lecturing, the bell rang suddenly and Ino immediately was out the door before the bell even stopped.
A quick stop to her locker and a make-up check, and Ino was on her way outside. As usual, the heat around her was evident since school had just started once again and summer was only just ending. As the students around her plowed out of the school or stuck around the entrance to talk to friends, Ino went straight for the old oak tree and as she had hoped, Temari was waiting for her.
"Ready to head to your house?" Temari asked, running a hand through her dirty blonde hair. Ino smiles and nodded. Right now, Ino and Temari were having a pretty decent relationship for the most part, but they fought a lot over stupid things and Temari was rarely in the mood for anything but sex. She wasn't complaining or anything, Ino is all for sex when the time is right, but not for every minute they are together.
The walk to Ino's was a decent one, no fight or even much talking involved either, which Ino figured was better than fighting.
"Was your day alright?" Ino asked politely.
Temari just shrugged, "Yes, I guess so."
There was no, "How about you?" after that. Just silence. Ino was used to it, however. She'd try to start a conversation with Temari, but it always ended with blunt answers or worse, stupid fights about the question. Rarely did Ino even bother to ask her, "Want to know how my day was?" because she figured that if Temari really wanted to know…she'd probably ask.
When they got to Ino's, Ino quickly went into the flower shop and told her father she was home. He just lifted up his hand and waved, and spoke over a pot of flowers. "Loraine is making dinner tonight, and I've got a lot of work down here," he said, obviously stressed out with planting and paperwork.
Ino nodded, knowing he was talking about her step mother and said quickly "Alright. Temari is spending the night." And before he could argue, Ino was gone, running up the stairs with Temari and down the hall into her bedroom.
Like always, Ino's roomed smelled of lavender, a sweet and heavenly scent that always made her feel better after a stressful day or even just a day or thinking way too much. Ino stepped out of the way to allow Temari entrance into her room, softly closing the door behind her and turning to watch Temari.
As usual, Temari went straight for the bed, and since the walk home took about an hour an a half it was going on 5 so there was slightly dim lighting coming through her open window. Temari flopped on the bed and crawled to turn on the radio so they could listen to some music. Ino went to her desk to empty out her school bag and brush her hair.
Her room was a mixture or purple and blue, her two favorite colors. The covers on her bed were purple velvet, and the curtains on her window she made from blue fabric of old children's clothing she didn't fit in anymore. She had a dresser, a small closet, a twin sized bed, and a standing lamp; all a teenage girl really needed besides a few stuffed animals, books, CD's, and magazines here and there.
As the music came on, it was a soft melody of slightly romantic, slightly techno, music and gave off just the vibe Temari probably wanted for the room. While Ino brushed her hair for a few minutes and read through some notes, Temari ran her hands around Ino's stomach and pulled her back against her.
"What do you say we have some fun?" Temari chuckled, nipping her ear.
Ino shook her head and gave a whimper, "Temari…not right now, I've got homework and things to do." She said, making up excuses to not have to get into sex right then and there.
Temari gave an annoyed sigh and stepped away from her, back over to the bed. She grabbed a magazine out from under the bed then crawled on top of the bed and just began to read. Ino sighed, worried Temari was mad at her.
Ino made her way over to the bed and sat next to Temari, kissing her cheek and shoulder softly. "Listen, Tema, after dinner, okay? Please?" she used Temari's nickname, hoping that the promise for sex later on would help lighten up the mood in the room and keep Temari from being too upset with her.
Luckily, Temari gave a satisfied smile and forced a deep kiss on Ino, pushing her down on the bed slightly as she kissed her. As quickly as it started, it had ended, and Temari was back to her magazine.
Ino got the right idea and decided to get up and go visit her dad in the flower shop. She walked passed the kitchen and nodded to Loraine as she cooked lasagna and the scent of garlic filled the air.
Walking down the steps and into the shop through the back way, Ino noticed her dad wasn't in sight. A note sat on the door to the shop that said, "Back in 40". Ino decided to help and take this as her shift, and she wanted to help out her dad too of course. She grabbed an apron and began writing down orders of customers as they came in and wrote down addresses of people who called.
In the short hour that passed by, her father finally walked through the door. Ino was tallying the amount of flowers she'd sold or would sell and it came to about three-dozen roses, one-dozen blossoms, five bags of gardening seeds, one bag of garden soil, and two flower pots.
"Thank you so much Ino, I really needed the help," he said, giving her a slight hug and a kiss on the forehead.
"It's nothing dad, you needed it," she said, taking off her apron and heading back up the stairs and to her room.
Ino always had a love for flowers, and after her mom passed away, it was all she could do to make her dad keep the flower shop. She promised to take care of it on weekends and after school, but eventually her dad couldn't keep up with his job, and decided to take care of the flower shop himself. Ino still tried to help her dad as much as she could though, straightening up files, water plants, and making deliveries that might have been late if she hadn't done them.
When Ino got to her room, Temari had magazines all over the bed, the music had changed to some hiphop, and the sixteen-year old girl was eating candy out the ass. Ino shook her head and grabbed the bag of candy from Temari, who gave a protesting "HEY!"
"Temari, I bought this candy for me to snack on, the least you could do is ask." Ino said, trying to keep her annoyed tone down. Temari just rolled her eyes.
"I would have asked if you were up here, but all you tend to care about is the stupid flower shop!"
Ino glared, "It's my mothers flower shop and-"
But Temari cut her off, "I know the story Ino. Chill out, alright?" she said, laying back on the bed and shaking her head, "I'm sorry, alright? I'll ask next time." She growled.
Ino just turned away and back to her desk, grabbing her backpack of the ground and taking out her geometry and biology books. "I'm going to start on my homework…" and after that was said, the silence kicked in. Ino and Temari read and worked in silence, Ino doing homework, and Temari humming to music and reading magazines.
Sadly, things like this happened a lot between Ino and Temari. Temari never was very sympathetic about Ino's mother's death…then again, Temari's mother died when she was very young, and she never met her father.
But Ino's mother was in her prime. She died in an accident, a freak accident in a bar that involved way too much to drink and a stove catching on fire. It happened when Ino was twelve, only four years ago; but it still feels like forever since she heard her mother's voice. She never even got to say good bye…
Ino shook her head. Now was not the time to be thinking about her mother. She swore to herself that she'd try to be the best girl she could, for her mother. After her father met Loraine, the house was never the same. Ino and Loraine fought all the time, never getting along until it involved Ino actually doing things around the house that Loraine knew about, even though it was none of her damn business. Ino and her dad weren't even as close anymore, but being a sophomore in high school, she really wanted to fix hers and her fathers' relationship.
When you're doing homework and trying to keep your girlfriend from blowing up at you, an hour and a few minutes can feel like only moments. Ino hadn't realized the strict silence in time to be able to know that Temari was right behind her.
The blonde wrapped her arms around Ino's waist and raised her up, turning her around so she was facing Temari. Temari's teal eyes looked into Ino's blue ones as Temari whispered seductively, "I'm done waiting…"
The room was quiet as Temari's hands ran over Ino's body in the dim sunset light of the room. The passionate kiss between them seemed to last forever as they lay on the bed, Ino on the bottom, and Temari leaned down close to the smaller girl's body. Temari's surprisingly soft moans ran shivers down Ino's spine as she anticipated what was to come.
First Ino's shirt was removed, followed by Temari's shirt and sweater. It could fell hotter in the room then it had been before, when you're slightly under the covers and in the arms of your girlfriend, both of your body heats rising.
Temari left soft kisses over Ino's skin, nipping in soft spots on the pale blonde's skin. Ino's whimpers and moans were making Temari match her moans in song. This was normal for the two girls. Sex was regular with them; it's just how things always were for Temari, no matter who she dated, and now it was the same for Ino.
As Temari sat up, taking off Ino's bra and flinging it across the room, she began removing her own bra as well, taking it teasingly slow as Ino watched.
"Ino, Temari, dinner is-" Loraine stepped in the room, turning on the bright light, causing both girls to shoot up and grab for their clothing. Loraine began to choke as she spoke and then…screamed.
"OH MY GOD!!"
