A week with Shikamaru
Ino Y. Uchiha "Ami Sano"
Ami's POV
*RING!*
My alarm clock went off as I jumped out of bed.
I feel so excited about having to hang out with Shika today.
He wasn't even going to accept my offer…
…Not without a little persuading—and also Ino's short temper--that is.
~XOXO~

Normal POV
"Come on, Shika!" Ami begged, kneeling in front of him like a desperate beggar asking for food.
"For the twenty-second time Ami..." Shikamaru said. He didn't really like this girl bugging him into an interview anymore. "No!"
"But Shika…" She said, making that puppy=dog face at him again. "…It's only for one week!"
"One week?!" He repeated, spitting some of the tea he was drinking.
(Ami: I forgot to tell you that we were at Ino's house at that time)
Ami nodded. "Uh huh."
"It's just too troublesome."
"Shika!"
"No way."
Luckily, Ino stepped into the room just in time to hear us. "Give the girl a chance."
"But Ino—"
"No buts." The blonde woman said with so much threat in her voice, which scared Shikamaru; who knew what was going to happen next.
"Fine." He said in defeat. "I'll do it."
Ami smiled. "Really? You would."
"Yeah..." Shikamaru said with a bored tone. "…If it's the only way to escape Ino's wrath."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Ino cut in our conversation with clenched her fists and a vein popping out from the side of her forehead.
"Uh oh…" Shikamaru said.
That was the last thing said as a hit was heard.
You would probably know what was going to happen next.
There in the center was Shikamaru, with a lump on his head and a pissed Ino, being comforted by Ami.
"I'll remember to always be on her good side." Shikamaru said to himself.
Ami just giggled.
=End of Flashback=
~XOXO~
I got my video camera, pencil and pad of paper and headed out.
~XOXO~
It was just 6:40 in the morning and we weren't to meet until 8.
You could say that I was early. A little too early.
So I decided to hang out by the Ramen stand first.
~XOXO~
=Ramen stand=
"Hey, Ami-chan!" Naruto said, waving his chopsticks in the air.
I waved back. "Naruto!"
I didn't notice that the others were here as well. Namely; Ino, Sakura, Hinata, Kiba, Sasuke, Shino, Neji, Tenten, Lee and Choji.
"Glad that you can make it!" (Ino)
"Hello, Ami." (Sakura)
"G-good m-mo-morning, A-Ami-chan." (Hinata)
"AMI!" (Kiba)
"…" (Sasuke)
"Hey." (Shino)
"Hn." (Neji)
"Hi, Ami!"
"AMI-CHAN! Glad to know that you want to spread your youth with us!" (Lee)
"*munch munch* Here to eat? *munch munch* (Choji)
I guess it was a good thing that I went first here. A least my day wouldn't start out boring like what it would be later when I hang out with Shika.
I sat down on a stool next to Ino.
"Aren't you going to order?" She asked.
"I already ate."
"Okay."
"So…" Naruto interrupted. Though, Ino and I didn't talk a lot just now. "…what brings you here? I thought you were going hang out with pineapple-head for a week."
"I came in early." I said. "It isn't until 8."
"Oh." Naruto said, not really having much to say.
I take back what I said earlier. Today is just plain boring.
"Where's Shika anyway?" I asked, trying to bring up a subject.
"Probably out cloud watching again." Ino said, bored.
"Is that all he ever does?" I ask again.
This time, everybody replied. Even Sasuke and Neji. "Yes."
"Is that so?" I raised a brow and they all nodded.
Seeing an interest at what I just learned, I stood up from my stool, which made the gang look at me.
"Leaving so soon, Ami?" Tenten asked.
"It's not even 8 yet!" Kiba complained.
"I know." I replied. "But having to learn that just now makes me want to start early."
Ino sighed. "Okay. Suit yourself."
"Good luck on that interview, Ami-chan!" Lee said, waving goodbye at me.
"Thanks. I'll need that." I waved back at him and was off running.
~XOXO~
"What person would be actually interested in seeing Shikamaru cloud watch?" Naruto said, while slurping on his ramen.
"Probably someone like Ami." Sakura replied.
Next time...
Day One: Sunday
A/N: Why am I so interested in knowing what he does anyway?
It seems so…boring…
Anyways, thanks for reading this!
Love you Lots!
