First Encounters - Ino
The first time Ino saw Naruto in the Academy was at the tender age of six, he strolled in the classroom like he owned the place with the most ridiculous grin on his face and an over-confident swagger while he ignored Iruka as he yelled at him to be in the Academy and in his seat on time.
Naruto scanned the rows of students as he found an empty seat near the little Yamanaka. He made his way to her casually with his hands deep in his pockets and his sandals dragging on the ground lightly.
He stopped right beside her and she looked at him skeptically. She took in his ratty old black shinobi sandals, cuffed and slightly dirty khaki shorts and his one size too big plain white shirt. She huffed a bang out of her face and lifted a slender eyebrow at him.
"Well are you going to sit or not?" She barked at him, the way he looked at her was kinda creepy, besides shouldn't he be scared of her cooties or something.
"Sorry it's just… you have nice eyes anyways I'm Uzumaki Naruto!" He introduced himself with his megawatt smile, his eyes crinkled slightly at the stunned face of the young heiress.
"Th-thanks Naruto, the name's Yamanaka Ino, remember it cuz I'm gonna be the best interrogator Konoha's ever seen."
"Oh yeah? Well I'm going to be the Hokage!" He puffed his chest out as he pointed to himself with his thumb.
"Please like yo-"
"UZUMAKI, YAMANAKA STOP DISRUPTING CLASS!"
"Hai sensei!" Chorused both blondes.
Ino gulped at Iruka's demon head jutsu as she cursed Naruto to hell in her head for getting her in trouble the very first day. She glanced at her fellow blonde sideways to see him smirking at their sensei's back as he took out a straw from his pocket while he popped in crumpled little paper balls in his mouth.
Oh lord. She just knew this boy was going to be trouble.
