I Can't Get You Off My Mind

Author's Note: Hey guys! I was bored so I decided to write a romance/humor/drama story. I hope you guys like it!

"Is she here, yet?" Shikamaru asked the 100th times. He, his mom and Inoichi (Ino's dad) were all waiting for Ino in a fancy restaurant. They were all ready seated, but didn't order yet. Shikamaru groaned, "What's taking her so long?"

Yoshino sit up from her seat, "Please, Shikamaru; wait a little longer."

"I have been waiting." He replied.

Inoichi glanced at the entrance and saw a familiar blond. He smiled, "Aahh, she finally came." He rose up from his seat and walked towards his daughter. He hugged her and whispered something in her ear, "You're late."

She pulled away from him. "Sorry daddy, I had cheerleading practice and I-…"

Her dad cut her off, "Explain it later. Let's just enjoy dinner."

Ino nodded and they both walked towards the table. She smiled, "Sorry I'm late. I had cheerleading practice."

Yoshino smiled back, "Oh it's okay Ino, please have a seat."

Ino nodded and sat in the chair that was available. Next to Shikamaru, her worst enemy. She turned her direction to his and notices that he was wearing a light blue v-neck with shorts under. "Hey Baka."

"Hi Blondie." He smirked. This was a routine. He or Ino would call each other names and they would reply back with an insult.

Ino rolled her eyes. She hated that nickname ever since he called her that. "Ugh, don't call me that, lazy-bum."

Shikamaru was going to say something back, but the waiter cut him off. "Ready to order?"

Inoichi gave him the menu back and they all ordered. Once he left Ino and Shikamaru were back arguing. Inoichi got tired of this and said, "Okay, that's enough. I have an announcement." They both stopped and turn their direction to him. He cleared his throat, "The reason why I called everyone to meet up at the restaurant is because I have something important to say."

Ino groaned, "Dad, we know. Just get to the point."

"Fine, I have been thinking… I think it's time for Yoshino and Shikamaru to move in my place."

The Naras jaws were wide open and Ino's eyes widen, "D-Dad, what are you t-talking about?"

"Ino, didn't you heard me. I said Yoshino and Shikamaru are moving in with us."

"W-Why?" She asked.

"Why? What do you mean why? Yoshino and I are getting married next week and I think they should live in our house, Ino." Inoichi replied back. "And our house is big enough to fit 2 more people in."

"I'm fine with Yoshino living with us, but there's no way that lazy-ass is moving in with us too." She pointed at the lazy-ass.

Shikamaru rolled his eyes, "For once I agree with Blondie here."

"Sorry, I made up my mind." Inoichi said. "This weekend Ino and I would help you pack."

Yoshino nodded, "Maybe Shikamaru and Ino would finally get along."

"Great, I have to see his face every single day." Ino said.

Shikamaru put a hand on her shoulder, "I can't wait to live with you. It's going to be fun torturing you." He smiled.

Ino kicked off her shoes while entering her house. She had the worst night. She still couldn't believe that Shikamaru was living with her this week. It would be impossible that could get along. That would take maybe 1 billion years if that happen. She looked at the time and it was already 10pm. She sigh, "I guess homework can wait till' morning." She walked to her room and decided to sleep.

Ino woke up to the sound of her alarm clock. She turned it off and headed to her bathroom to take a quick shower. When she was done; she did her hair. She put her hair up and clipped her bangs to the side. When she was finished with that she got dressed. She wore a yellow off shoulder with a smiley face and jean shorts. She did her makeup and she went downstairs. She didn't see her dad downstairs so he must be at work. She doesn't really eat breakfast so she decided to go to school. She grabbed her bag and headed for the door. She walked to her car and she drive to school.

Once she got there, she parked in the parking lot. When she got out of her car, she felt someone hugging her from behind. She smiled and she already knew who it was. She turned around and fined her raven-hair boyfriend smirking at her.

He smiled. "Did I scare you?"

She smiled back, "Nope."

He holds her hands and walked towards the school. Everyone was staring at the cute couple and how jealous they were.

Shikamaru rolled his eyes at the couple when they past by him.

Naruto nudged him, "Oi, Shikamaru what's wrong?"

"They disgust me." Shikamaru said.

"When you say they you mean Ino and Sasuke." Naruto guessed.

"Yeah." He replied.

Naruto run his hand through his hair. He laughed, "Come on dude, they're the most popular people in Konoha High. They're a good couple."

Shikamaru sigh, It's true. Ino and Sasuke and some other people they hang out with are the cool kids. As for me and my group, were not. Were known as the nobodies. Were not losers or nerds, were just not popular. "Naruto, let's go to class."

"Right."

Naruto and Shikamaru had the same class together. They both have math class. They walked inside and sat together. They saw other people coming in the class taking their seat.

"Oh that reminds me." The blonde boy said. "How come you couldn't come to my house yesterday?"

"Inoichi wanted to talk to me, my mom, and… Blondie." Shikamaru replied.

Naruto knew 'Blondie,' was Ino. "About what?" Naruto asked.

"He said that this weekend my mom and I are moving in with him." Shikamaru said with an unhappy voice.

"Damn, you're lucky." Naruto said.

Shikamaru had a confused look on his face. "How am I lucky?"

"You're living with the hottest princess in Konoha High. Dude, if I was you I would-…" He stopped when he sees the 'hottest princess,' with her bitchy friend. He didn't get why Ino, a down to earth girl, would hang out with a bitch. This 'bitch,' he was referring to is Karin. Ino and Karin sat close to Naruto and Shikamaru. Naruto smiled, "Hey Ino…" He glanced at the red head, "Hi Bit-… err... Karin."

Karin rolled her eyes, "Don't talk to me."

Naruto smiled, "Glad to."

"Hey Karin, don't be mean." Ino told her red hair friend. "Hey Naruto…" She looked at Shikamaru. "Hi lazy-bum."

Shikamaru shot back at her, "Now Blondie, don't be mean." He said with a smooth voice.

"Hn, whatever." She turned her head back at Karin and started a conversation.

Naruto rolled his eyes, "I can't believe you and Ino are still fighting. You guys been going at it since… when you were 7, don't you need a break from that?"

"I wish…. But that's not going to happen." Shikamaru leaned back in his seat. "She's my enemy, enemies can't be friends."

Shikamaru put his head up when he heard the bell rang for lunch. He was in English class and instead of him doing work, he slept. "Hn, the teacher was stupid; he didn't even notice I sleep during his class." He said to himself. He walked out of the class and headed towards the cafeteria. He saw his friends and he sat next to his chubby friend.

"Shikamaru, aren't you hungry?" Choji asked.

"No." He replied back. He just wanted the day to end so he could enjoy his last peaceful Friday at home.

"Hey guys." Everyone turned around and saw Sakura sitting in the table with them. She smirked, "Hey TenTen, I see your future boyfriend."

TenTen blushed and saw Neji with Sasuke sitting at they're table. "Shut up Sakura. I don't like him, I just find him attractive."

Hinata looked at the guy they were talking about and she gasped, "You like my cousin?"

"Neji's your cousin?" Kiba asked.

"Yeah, but we barely talk." Hinata replied.

"No wonder you guys look alike." TenTen said while staring at Hinata, then Neji, then Hinata, then at him.

Sakura laughed, she turned her head to Shikamaru, who was already sleeping. She laughed, "Hey Shikamaru."

He groaned, "What is it?"

"I heard from Naruto that you're living with Ino." Sakura said.

Shikamaru turn his head to the loud mouth blonde, "You told her?"

"Y-Yeah." Naruto replied.

Kiba smirked, "Shikamaru! You're living with Ino! Damn, you're fucking lucky!"

"That's what I said." Naruto high fived Kiba.

Shikamaru rolled his eyes. All of his male friends find his soon-to-be stepsister attractive.

TenTen smiled, "Shikamaru, you should be happy. She's my lab partner and she's so tight!"

"Didn't I tell you all that we hate each other?" Shikamaru questioned.

Sakura laughed, "Yes Shikamaru, you told us that like the million times, but you should start being nice to her."

"Why the hell would I be nice to her if she acts like a bitch to me?" He raised his voice.

Choji eye's widen, 'Shit he's pissed.' Choji gave a shut up look to the group. They all nodded and they all changed the subject.

Shikamaru sigh when he read the text that Kiba sent. School was over, and Kiba wanted him to meet him at the yard where the bleachers are. Shikamaru closed his locker and walked to the yard.

When he got there, he saw cheerleaders and football players. The football players were far away from the cheerleaders so they could practice. There cheerleaders were practicing too. He saw a familiar blonde practicing too.

"Shikamaru, over here!" He heard his name being called and turned to see Kiba and Naruto. They were sitting in the bleachers.

He walked up to them, "Why are we here?"

Kiba laughed, "Isn't obvious; were here to watch the cheerleaders." Shikamaru rolled his eyes and sat next to him.

Naruto had a perverted look on his face, "Yeah, I can't believe the principal let them wear those sexy uniform."

"I know right." Kiba was looking at the girl's legs. "They're legs are sooo fine."

"Hell yeah they are." Naruto said. "Who do you think is the sexiest cheerleader, Kiba?"

Kiba scanned every girl, but he was having trouble finding the sexiest girl. "They're all sexy, but I think Ino is the sexiest cheerleader."

Naruto smirked, "I agree with you, buddy."

Shikamaru angry at what he heard stood up from his seat. "You know what. I'm leaving." He starts to leave.

"Were just having some fun, Shikamaru." Naruto said.

Shikamaru turned back to them, "You call this fun? Drooling over girls that never looked at you. You guys are just wasting your time." He turned to leave. The exit he's leaving was near the cheerleaders. Shikamaru didn't even bother looking at them. All he wants is to go home. He stopped because he heard his phone ringing so he picked it up.

Ino looked around and she saw Shikamaru. 'What is he doing here?'

"Ino, come on. We're going to do the Main Base." Karin said.

"Alright." She ran up to them. Karin and Ami held out their hands so Ino could step on them. Once they were set, they threw Ino in the air so she could do stunts. She landed back on their hands. "Karin, Ami, one more."

"Are you sure?" Karin asked.

"Hell yeah." They threw her in the air again, but this time a football hit her while she was trying to do a stunt. "Owww." She looked down and she was still in the air. 'Oh, no I'm going to fall.' Ino closed her eyes ready to hit the floor, but she didn't feel the ground. Instead, she felt two warm hands wrapped around her. She opened her eyes and she saw the person who saved her from falling. She blushed, "Sh-Shikamaru?" All the girls even Kiba and Naruto ran to the scene.

Shikamaru was just staring at her. He still has his arms around her. "Ummm…. Are you alright?" He asked.

"Y-Yeah." He stands up and he helped her up. They just kept staring at each other. They never had been this close or they never had stared at each other in that way.

Kiba cleared his throat and that made Ino and Shikamaru back to reality. "What's going on?"

Ino notice how Shikamaru and she were close so she stepped back a little. "I was about to fall, but he saved me."

"I know that, but the way you-…" Kiba got cut off from an angry voice behind him.

"Hey Nara!" A deep voice yelled.

Shikamaru turned around and he saw an angry boyfriend walking towards him. "What do you want, Uchiha?"

Sasuke took his helmet off and threw it on the ground. He walked close to Shikamaru. "Why were you touching my girlfriend!"

Shikamaru rolled his eyes. He didn't want to deal with this. "I wasn't touching your girlfriend, I saved her from falling."

Sasuke ignored him and continues yelling at him. "No one touches my girlfriend except me!"

Ino blushed at this. She looked at Sasuke and he was ready to throw a punch at Shikamaru. Ino rushed in front of Sasuke. "Sasuke, please stop."

"Ino, get out of the way so I could beat Nara's ass." Sasuke said while trying to push Ino out of his way.

"Hey Blondie, you better calm your boyfriend's ass. His face is turning into a tomatoe." Shikamaru joked.

"What was that, Nara?" Sasuke asked.

"Your. Face. Is. Turning. Into. A. Tomatoe." Shikamaru said, but slower. "Is that better for you if I talk slower."

Sasuke was even more angry. "Gaara, Neji, back me up when I beat Nara's ass."

"Hn, he was getting on my nerves." Gaara said while cracking his knuckles.

"You guys just stop. This is going too far." Karin said.

Gaara and Sasuke were about to charge at Shikamaru, but Neji stopped them.

"What the hell?" Sasuke and Gaara stopped.

"It's pointless to fight. Let's not waste our time beating a loser up. We should go back to practice." Neji said while turning back to the rest of his team.

Ino was relief, 'Thank you, Neji.'

Sasuke walked up to Shikamaru, "Just stay away from her, got it?"

Shikamaru smirked, "How can I? I'm already living with her."

Sasuke had a confused look on his face. He turned his head to Ino, "Your living with him?"

Ino nodded, "But babe, don't worry. We… don't really get along."

Sasuke smiled, "Good." He kissed his girlfriend on the cheeks, "When practice is over I'll walk you home."

Ino smiled, "Okay." Sasuke turned around to leave and go back to practice. "Hey Shikamaru, I just want-…." She stopped because he's already gone. Ino half smiled and went back to practice as well.
