By: SpiritA2
Tonight it's very clear I am a man who would fight for your honor You keep me standin' tall I am a man who will fight for your honor
'Cause we're both lyin' here
There's so many things I wanna say
I will always love you
I would never leave you alone
Sometimes I just forget
Say things I might regret
It breaks my heart to see you cryin'
I don't wanna lose you
I could never make it alone
I'll be the hero you've been dreamin' of
We'll live forever, knowing together
And we did it all
For the glory of love
You help me prove it all
I'm more strong when you're beside me
I have always lived in you
I could never make it alone
I'll be the hero you've been dreamin' of
We'll live forever, knowing together
And we did it all
For the glory of love

Afternoon at Church
'Dum dumda-dum… Dum dumda-dum' wedding chores
The skies were blue and it was a sunny afternoon. And out side you could just hear the galore of the church bells. Birds were singing with joy as they celebrate their love for mother earth.
And now there he was, shikamaru standing next to the aisles where sweet melody are being played.
He actually doesn't know where he was.
While out of a sudden there came this lovely and beautiful fair girl walking towards him.
She was pretty, an angel to be exact. She was wearing a beautiful, clear white wedding gown.
Her blonde hair was tied up in four cute tiny meat balls with flower ribbons that sway underneath them. She walked gracefully down the aisle, excited that everyone could see her wonderful sparkling baby blue eyes. After that Shikamaru noticed…
That face, that angelic face of her.
I know this lady, he thought to himself.
She's no other than…
'Shocked'
Ino, yamanaka Ino! He couldn't believe what he was seeing, whether it was a dream or not. Cos' practically he never imagined himself getting involve with these kind of things, especially in a…a Church?
I can't believe it… Ino is getting married?
But to whom! He thought to himself.
Suddenly,
Whuh...huh! Why am I here by the way? Why am I wearing such an itchy outfit?
Why I'm I standing...standing next to this… this guy…
This guy! Fat and…wait, I know him…Chouji!
Ino's getting married to Chouji!
He was shocked to imagine, but then realized…
No way, No no! Not Chouji! She's walking towards me.
Then this means… 'Shocked again'
I can't believe it…I'm getting married! When? How! Uuhh…her?
No wait this is wrong…why me and Ino! Stop! I'm dreaming again!
Ok she's facing me right now. What do I do!
"Honey… is something wrong?" Ino asked
"Huh wuh…oh oh yes, yes... I mean NO! No!" Startled.
"That's right, nothings wrong. Now shall we?" Shikamaru asked,
Offering her his left arm to proceed with what ever is going on (which he actually doesn't know)
Where the heck did I learn to do that?
You got to be serious man!
Troublesome…awww!
"Will you take this lady… as you lawful wedded wife?" Asked the priest
Say what? As if He was hearing things.
May you mind repeating what you said Mr. Priest?
"I do" Shikamaru replied.
I what! Did I just? I just can't stop talking! I can't control myself! Hmlhmllmhmhlm… (Words were starting to distort)
"I now announce you, man and wife" said the priest
"You may now kiss the bride."
And there the Priest ended the wedding ceremony.
Echoing 'kiss the bride' x4.
The words were stuck in shikamaru's head, swirling and echoing.
He's starting to feel dizzy, thinking maybe he's going to lose his mind or something.
Till…
No stop…!
Uh oh… here it goes… I can't stop now! Eekk! I can't do this to Ino
Troublesome, troublesome... what is happening? Then he finally noticed,
Oh would you look at that, how beautiful her lip looks…
Really smooth and…I just really wann--
FLASH! It started to blur clearly white.
Saturday Morning
'Tweet… tweets…' Birds singing
"Honey wake up! Wake up!" said Mrs.Nara while nudging Him.
"RISE AND SHINE!" she said, opening the blue curtains wide enough for everyone to see him in bed and how messy he looks when he sleeps. She smiled… but then
"ARRGGG….WAKE UP YOU LAZY BUM!" Mrs.Nara started screaming.
"YOUR GROWING UP INTO A LAZY NINJA MR.NARA!" his Mother said… getting really pissed at the moment.
"Hhhmmmmhhhmm…mwah….mwah…" shika mumbled. While hugging his pillow real tight as if he doesn't want to let go. )
"Arrgg…your totally going to pass up Ino's phone call… you really care about nothing at all do you?" Mrs.Nara sighs. If Mrs.Nara's son was more active and obedient, she wouldn't have any problems in her son getting a Girlfriend.
Wish Ino would notice my lil kiddo... she thought with a smile.
"HUH WHAT INO!" shika answered back. (In a very not Shikamaru way) and almost fell out of bed.
"Uhh… what's with you today?" asked Mrs.Nara, finding her son really strange these days. I wonder if my son's in love ) she thought.
"Uhh…oh…Ino…BhAH! That annoying woman again troublesome..." Pretend to be careless.
"Oh well… if you still want to talk to her, she's on the phone waiting you know." Mrs.Nara reminded.
"Oh yea! Why didn't you tell in the first place Wait, I'll go get it" He said.
He jumped out of bed, rushed down the stairs and hurried for the Phone.
"Hehehe… ok honey, and make sure you talk nice!" Mrs.Nara reminded. Giggling so hard that wished that Ino was the girl for Shikamaru.
"Yea, yea, yea…how troublesome" shika said, then smiled.
Of course I will, she's my teammate, my friend… and I —err shikamaru no! Stop thinking about it! It was just a dream! She's such a troublesome girl…Ino.
Ahem...ahemm… Clearing his throat to make it sound real lazy… as usual.
"Uh… hello? Ino?" he said. Making sure if she was still on phone, In fact that Ino has a short temper and has no patience.
I bet she'll be screaming at me once again.
"Hey shika-kun! I got great news!" Ino said in a jolly tone
She's actually not screaming ) that's great news.
"Hhmm…you seem real happy today Ino, what's up?" he asked
"Well… I don't feel like telling it to you right here on the phone, so if you'd mind.
Let's meet at the inn shall we?" Ino suggested.
"Aww alright, you say so." he replied, holding the phone real tight hoping that it was something important.
"Ok see ya then bbye" she ended.
The Phone hung up.
"Yea… bye…Ino-chan" shika said, even knowing that she wasn't on phone no more.
Yippee! A date… hehehe… ARGG... Stop it shikamaru! What are you thinking sheezzz!
It's not a date especially not something your hoping for ok.
Hoping for what? Girls are troublesome… troublesome, troublesome.
Yep that's right; she'll just blabber about sasuke again as always.
Hmmp!
Hope not…sighs.
Man that was a weird dream... somehow I feel lightened up…)
At the Small Inn
'Tic tic tic' Shikimaru watching he's watch patiently.
Ino late? Hah! You got to be kidding me… where is that annoying girl!
Shikamaru leaned by the wall next to the lil inn where He and Chouji usually hang out.
"I wish Chouji was here right now…" he Sighs.
"SHIKA-KUN!" Ino shouting from meters away. She was actually waving at me for the FIRST time. Smiled
"What on earth took you so long? This is the first time I see Miss Yamanaka late for a meeting" He teased, happily.
"Uh sorry! buh whatever! shikamaru-kun. I had to dress up to make sure I'd look good as always" she shot back with a wink
Wow...that wink kindda made me feel good, she sure looks real cute )
Buh uh wait no! Don't even think about it!
"Uhh…You're still wearing the same old dress, so what?"
"Hey! I put make-up on! Can't you see!"
"Oohh…that, I thought it was some dirt on your face" He mucked her.
"ARRrggg…What did you say!" she asked.
Ok she's mad.
"Nothing! I said you look great… aS aLwAyS!" Shika said in an annoying way.
"Hhhmmp! Well then, about what I was going to tell you" Ino started.
I bet it's about sasuke again… gees when will this end.
Hello! Earth to Ino I'm not a play toy that could listen about sasuke always.
Sasuke-kun, sasuke-kun, sasuke-kun! Bla bla bla!
Geez what did she see in him, he seems so… eeww why am I thinking about it
I'm not gay, definitely not gay at all! Yuck! If I was a girl I'd go for myself… lol
"Hey! Are you even listening to me?" Ino exclaimed.
"Oh, yea I am… yea go on" Shikamaru startled forgetting that Ino was just in front of him.
"Ok here it goes!" Ino ongoing
"I gave sasuke a home made soup and He actually accept my gift and even thanked me! This is the most wonderful thing that ever just happened to me!" Ino went on and on about sasuke.
"He said he appreciated the soup I gave!"
Shikamaru was kind of astonish of what Ino was actually telling him. He went all this way for her "Great news phone call" and just gets dumbfound stories from her.
Sighs… I should have known… sasuke, sasuke, sasuke… when will this end?
And she keeps on blubbering, does she even know whether I'm listening or not? Gees how troublesome…
"…And so as I was saying, I guest I have a chance! Oh I love him! I'm In Love" Ino cheered.
Love him…love him…love him… (echoing in his ears)
Did I just hear that? She what! Oh she's totally screwed by that uchiha kid.
Man why do all girls go crazy over that dude anyways?
"Uh hey Ino…" shika conjested. "Did I just hear you right? You LOVE this guy… I mean have you gone berserk? Out of all your suitors who go crazy for you, you chose this sasuke who doesn't even like you..!" Shikamaru asked insanely
"You've gone nuts!" he added, with a very weird look on his face.
Uh ok, did I just say that? Shikamaru was surprised and didn't know what to do next. So he shoved his hands in his pockets and started to think.
"BAKA! HIS A VERY INTELLIGENT AND CHARMING GUY, YOU HEAR!" Ino recommended
Ouch…that was something mean to say… as if I'm not intelligent! Hey Miss yamanaha, for your info I have an IQ of 200…if you still remember!
"Hey are you saying that I'm not smart!" Shika retorted.
"I wasn't saying that you aren't smart! And hey! I wasn't comparing you to him? Who puts you in the subject!" Ino Snapped back.
"Oh yea? Well I don't need any troublesome girls like you!" shikamaru defending himself. Aww…chouji where the hell are you? I'm tired sick here…
Both their faces were getting reddish cos of arguing. Shikamaru was really pissed that he doesn't know how he feels about it, was he jealous of sasuke or is he just defending himself of being intelligent. And Ino Seems really pissed too cos of shikamaru's bring down of sasuke. Both were starting to sweat, but doesn't really care.
What do I say next? She might think that I'm jealous or something. Shikamaru thought.
Ok ok ok now this is going way down my nerve. Sighs why doesn't he like sasuke-kun anyways? Gees this guy really doesn't know anything. Ino thought.
And so the moment of silence.
Pock pock pock! A Chicken passed by... And so the Silence has been broken.
"Hhhmp Fine then! All I wanted to tell you is how happy I am, and now you here just knocks me off!" Ino yelled in a disappointing tone with hands on her hips
"Well I went here because you said it was important!" shikamaru replied way more disrupt as Ino
"Fine, no wonder you get no girlfriend! You're too sissy!" Ino teased
"Huh…are you jokin' I'm serious here!" said shikamaru, but relief in a way…
"C'mon lets go home…you ruined my day" Ino whispered weakly
"Uh hey Ino! I was just … kidding!" said shika with a smile, but felt a bit sorry
"Let's have a ramen first…umm…my treat!"
"Hehe! Cool alright! Let call Chouji to join us!" Ino suggested
Awww…man! I knew she would say that! How troublesome now I gotta pay real big, not just for Ino but for Chouji…that lil eater…)
And so they went over Chouji's place and asked him to join them for a bowl of some hot tasty ramen…
"hey hey hey… this is the first time your actually going to treat me out!" said Chouji to Shikamaru.
"I'm soooo glad! Gee thanks lol" added Chouji
How troublesome…bye bye my lil pocket money…Sighs…troublesome troublesome…
"Nah its ok buddy! Thanks to Miss troublesome you're with us" answered Shikamaru (with a dead smile) hehehe this is going way far…
At the Ramen Inn
"Yum! Hhmm dis hmm is mhmmgoood…" Chouji delight in eating up his ramen.
"Yep hehehe by the way thanks shika-kun!" Ino thanked and jumped on Shikamaru giving a Hug.
Dum-dum Dum-dum His heart beating impulsively.
Wooow shikamaru! Way to go she hugged you baby! Arrgg stop it!
Shikamaru blushed.
"Hey whatchu' guys doin'?" someone from behind asked
While every one turned their head in a funny way, which they hope wasn't the person their thinking, but yet that tone really is no other than;
NARUTO!
"oh hey naruto!" greeted the three.
"So who's with ya?" Asked Shikamaru
"Hey guyz!" Sasuke appeared from behind of Naruto
"oOoHh…Hey SaSuKe" greeted Shika
But deep inside Shikamaru's Feelings
HOLY S! WHAT THE HECK IS THIS GUY DOING HERE! NO NOT NOW! I'M WITH INO CAN'T YOU SEE! ARRGG! AND… AND starting to sob… ' (
"Oh hey SASUKE-KUN!" Ino Greeted
"Hey…" sasuke greeted back
"Two Ramen please! And the bills on Skikamaru by the way" ordered Naruto
WTF! WHY THAT BAKA! GRRRRR…I DON'T WANNA TREAT HIM OR SASUKE EITHER! Thought Shikamaru
Ino really can't take her eyes off of sasuke…sighs
"Arrgg…." Shikamaru muttered
"Is something wrong Shika-kun?" asked Ino
"you really seem down right now"
"huh…?" shikamaru stared into Ino's Eyes and Sighs
To be continued
Maybe it's intuition I knew I loved you before I met you
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life…
