*Friends Forever*
... ... ... ...
As the summery says these are just bits and pieces of ideas that might or might never become full blown stories. Each is a single unconnected idea unless stated otherwise at the beginning. Updates will be fairly irregular, then again, that's normal for me.
#The least you need to know before reading - Um, nothing really for this one.

"…wait…"
She obeyed, stopping just before the door. Her back was to him, an unseen playful smirk on her lips. She waited, pretending to fix her strappy short dress. All she needed was a short phrase. One word would suffice.
~ Stay ~
But it was the meaning this simple phrase/word implied that she needed. She needed to know that she still stood a chance. That his heart didn't already belong so completely to another. That maybe there was space enough for them…and maybe her heart wasn't going to be shattered.
She knew him better than most anyone. He wouldn't say it. He couldn't. He wouldn't ask her to say. He wouldn't lie just to keep her near. Both of them already knew the truth. He cherished her friendship but she wouldn't be satisfied as "just friends". But still, she waited, her heart pumping anxiously in her chest.
Holding out hope for a second longer, her smirk finally dropped. A sad smile stretched her glossed lips. She was right, of course, he wouldn't say it. Releasing a soft sight she finally broke the silence as she reached for the doorknob, "Goodbye, Shikamaru."
His voice carried across the room, reaching her as she crossed the threshold, "Goodbye, Ino." It was a good thing he hadn't moved an inch the whole time, otherwise he might've seen the silent tears that now spilled down her cheeks.
Very short, I know...for once. Let me know what you thought.
Should I continue posting ideas that have a possibility of becoming stories?
Review?
Please?
