Hey so after reading a bunch of fics I got inspired to write….this is a shikaino fic….a sweet cute romance….hope you enjoy it! Oh and just to let yah know…the person's name at the beginning of the chapter is the person's POV in that chapter.
Chapter 1: The Stars
Shikamaru
The light was dim, but I could still see her inside. She was sitting at her desk grading papers. Since she was a teacher and I was a jouin constantly out on missions I hardly ever saw her. She was still beautiful...
'Looks like she let her hair down. She looks so sweet. Hmmm….I miss her.'
She got up from her desk and turned my way. I did not have enough time to hide…so she caught me staring. She shut her blinds and turned off her lights….
'Crap see saw me! Man I only wish things were the same as they were a year ago…'
I continued to walk into the night. The stars shone brightly in the night sky.
'Heh…she loved looking at the stars…'I looked back up to the sky. The stars were a bright as they were…then….'man I miss that girl…it just reminds me of that night….'
-Flashback-
"Hey Shikamaru!" She yelled when I walked onto the roof.
"Hey…what are you doing up here?" I asked with curiosity.
"Hmmm…watching the stars. I love them." She smiled. I smiled. She looked back up at the stars. I sat down next to her and whispered something in her ear.
"They aren't the only thing that you love. I'm sure that you love someone and that that someone loves you." She look my way, blushing."Ahhh….so I was right! So you like me and I like you. Will you go out with me then?"
At first she was shocked and said nothing. She thought for a moment then in a split second she threw her arms around my neck. She was blushing and smiling. She seemed so happy.
"I thought you would never ask me that. But you're right! I love you! Shika of course I will!"
-End Flashback-
'Hmm…wow I miss her that much…I'm crazy for thinking we could last. She didn't like most of the things I did. She was just too much for me…too energetic…too girlie…to her…too much in love with me. I loved her with all of my heart…with all my soul. She completed me…' Tears started to fill my eyes 'Damn it! Why am I crying! God damn it Shikamaru! She was just one girl. Just one heart break...just the one…' I wiped my tears and sat down on a nearby bench.
'This bench…is it in the park…?' I looked around…it was 'wow I have crappy opinion on a good seat…' It was the bench that was the problem…it may have happened nearly a year ago but it still hurt me.
-Flashback-
It was a perfect day to go cloud watching…that's what I would've been doing if I hadn't had to ask her something. She had asked to talk earlier so I said yes and asked if we could meet around 3. She agreed so here it was 3:15…had to get some stuff…and she was waiting for me right were she told me she would be…our bench in the park.
"Hey."I walked up and sat down.
"Hi Shika…look can we…"my finger went on her mouth.
"Wait, please…"she begged, but I had paid no attention. Instead I got down on one knee and pulled out a box containing a beautiful diamond ring. The ring had a one caret diamond, surrounded by 2 sapphires, and set in a gold band.
She gasped. She started to cry. She looked at me, then back down at the ring, started to cry more and shake her head. "Will you marry me?" She started to cry more and shaking her head harder.
"Shika..."gasping for air, still crying very hard, she started. "Look...I love you I do...but I can't! I can't! I can't stand the thought of us being split! Shika...I can't! We can never! We will never! I can't! You can't! Can't you see it would never work out?!!!" She ran off.
I immediately got up and ran.
'How could she say no? She loves me. So why would she say no. Why? Would she say no?'
I continued after her but I couldn't tell were she went. "Wait! Please show your face! PLEASE!"
When I had finally caught up to her she was still in tears. I grabbed her wrist to insure that she wouldn't run off again.
"Why?" tears beginning to fall from my face. "Why did you say no?" No answer just the sound of crying. "Answer me! Answer me go damn it! Answer me!!!!!"
"Shikamaru!" she was still crying."Let go of me! I said no that's final! Goodbye! I never want to see you again!"
"But the team?"
"Forget about the god damn team! I quit! Stop trying to hold on to me! Goodbye! Never speak to me again!!!!!" I let go...of her. But not because she scared me...but because of what she said...because she left me broken...
-End Flashback-
I looked up at the moon. It was full, bright and all alone tonight. The moon was much like me all alone, just sitting there without anything to do. But the stars...they were together...shinning showing off there life...having a purpose. The stars weren't alone they were together...not alone together.
I got up off the seat. I began to head home...as I was walking him I was staring at my feet...She broke me apart...I loved her and she didn't. I stopped...right in front of her house.
"Ino I know that you still love me...because I still love you."
I walked away...still broken...still unloved...still alone. Ino killed me inside. She had meant so much and so when she said no and told me to get out of her life I was hurt. I still love her very much and can't understand why she let me go. I will never stop loving her...I will never forget her...she will always be my Ino.
'Ino you were my world and still are...'
