Blood; it was on the walls, the ceiling, and, of course, the floor. By now the girl was just wondering who's it was, not that she cared any. She grinned madly at the mangled corpse and whispered, "Was she worth it?" in his ear. She bit her lip and kissed his bloody ones in one last, dieing kiss. She glanced at the girl whom was positioned in an unfathomable way and scoffed. "He thought you were better than me? I think not, you poor pathetic wretch."

She stepped through the doorway and grabbed her cloak, masking her bloody form and ran to the hideout where all of the "crazy" people stay.

The rain was cold and bit her skin, washing the blood away and making the red stain her bleach blond hair. She sighed as she walked through the door and hung her cloak on the old wooden coat hanger. A young-looking man saw her

appearance and rolled his eyes, "you can't keep doing this, Ino; Killing random men just because of a mistake." "Mistake!"

she screeched, "I found him kissing the stupid whore on our bed!"

The brunette sighed and took a drag of his cigarette, "and how long have you shared his bed?" She glared, looking relatively threatening with the blood she was still covered in. Her lips twitched, "a month." He clamped his fists together and punched the wall. "Damn it, Ino! You just met the man and you slept with him?! What's wrong with you?!" She just rolled her eyes, "Oh come on, Shikamaru, I did not just meet him. Why are you getting so worked up about this anyway?" The man twitched, "you come home covered in blood and ask me why I'm getting worked up?! God, Ino, what's wrong with you?" She pouted, "Well I'm over it now so no need to worry." With that said she kissed his cheek with her crimson covered lips and skipped off down the hall to her room.


A slightly bigger male came out when the girl left. "Shikamaru, this shouldn't be new to you, it's been like this for 9 centuries." Shikamaru sighed and took another long drag, "yeah, I know, Choji, but I care about her, and I still don't know why she sleeps with random guys." The boy frowned, "you still don't know? I thought she made it obvious when she yelled out her problem." Shikamaru decided that Choji was of no help so he left the hideout if not just for the night.

He walked along the dark, lonely streets with his black trench coat tightly around him and kept his head low. It was still raining and he was getting went, even through his coat so he walked through the least crowded bar he could find and made himself comfortable in the nearest corner.

"So, girl troubles?" an old man with long white hair asked, taking a sip of his beer. He rolled his eyes, "something like it." He old man sighed and nodded his head, "go on and tell me what happened." Shikamaru started hesitantly and told him about what goes on most of the time, of course leaving certain details out, "…I care for her and stuff, but she goes and sleeps with random guys not knowing how if affects me," The man nodded slowly, "and how does it affect you?" he asked seriously.

Shikamaru rubbed his temple and sighed, "It makes me want to kill myself," he said quietly, "if I could," he whispered to himself. The man nodded solemnly and ordered another drink for them before giving Shikamaru his advice. "Maybe you should set her aside and explain to her how it makes you feel and try to get her to see things from your point of view."

He nodded the left the old man, paying for both their drinks and heading out to go for a short walk away from everything before heading back home.

...

Rining out her hair Ino sighed and gazed at her clock. "It's already two-thirty five, where is Shikamaru?" she asked herself quietly. She looked at herself through the fogged mirror and rubbed her head. Ino waltes back into her room and changed from her towel into a sleek black nightgown. She grabbed the black ribbon the Shikamaru had given her and tied her hair up in a long pony-tail. The bloody clothes on the floor were starting to dry and smell, she grimmanced and tossed them in the washer to clean them.

Hearing the washing machine go on Choji walked slowly up to her, "Ino-chan, why don't you get some rest. It's already two-forty seven." She frowned, her eyes showing that she was worried, "exactly, it's late and Shikamaru's not here. He's not that mad at me, is he?" Choji sighed and rubbed her back, "Ino, I don't think you understand how much he wishes you wouldn't sleep around." Ino clenched he fists and pushed him away, "Choji, I was in love with all of those men!" He only sighed and shook his head, "Ino...please..." She layed her head against the wall and closed her eyes. "Why can't he see what I'm trying to do?" she asked quietly. He gave a slight smile, "He may be an old vampire, but even if he had all the time in the world he still wouldn't understand how you or anyother female in the world works." Ino nodded agreeing when the sound of a door poening was hear faintly. Her eyes snapped open and she sprinted down the hall into Shikamaru's suprized form, nocking them both over.

"Shikamaru! You were gone for so long! I'm so sorry!" She yelled frantically at him, hugging his neck tightly.

Shikamaru smiled, "Troublesome. It's alright, Ino."

She glanced up at him shyly. "Thank you."

"Of course."

She grinned and jumped up, then offered Shikamaru her hand to help him. Choji stood near the doorway and smiled at the two. "I've been up for like, ever now. I'm going to bed!" She kissed Shikamaru's cheek and hopped up to Choji to give him a hug. "Night, lovelies."

Grinning at him knowingly, Choji patted his friend on the back before bidding him a good night. Shikamaru rolled his eyes and forced his blush down and followed the too shortly after.
