Characters: Ino
Summary: Ino is over-sexed.
Pairings: None
Author's Note: This is not crack. Nor is it smut. I respect Ino a bit more than that, though I am going to be brutal here. This is meant to explain Ino's, ah, "clothing", in part II.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
A false, Barbie Doll-esque smile plasters itself across Ino's pale oval of a face as she selects lipstick from her vanity. Pale pink, the color of sakura petals or Sakura's hair.
Then, a shard falls from the wide mirror, and the illusion that everything's fin cracks for just a short time.
Everything is not fine.
Ino was not the first kunoichi of her "group" to be sent on a seduction mission (that dubious distinction belongs to Sakura, though Ino was sent on a seduction mission for the first time just a month after Sakura; both were fourteen), but as she developed a body men found desirable she was put on missions to wind her body around one of a man she had never met more and more.
She could feel hands over her all the time now, phantom sensations that had nothing to do with Shintensin no Jutsu, just memories of when she'd given her maidenhood and everything else away for the sake of the village.
Everything for Konoha, everything.
Some simply write it off to Ino being a teenage girl who's proud of her body. Asuma, and Choji, and Shikamaru especially see a little deeper and are uncomfortable, but are too awkward—and just a touch guilty, though none will admit it—to ask. Those wiser see the truth and know that kunoichi like Ino are a dime a dozen, though usually they're at least twice her age.
She wears tight, sparse clothing, revealing the firm, flat stomach (not yet sagging or scarred as in the case of older kunoichi) and the rounded, budding hips. Here is a nubile young woman, Ino wants to proclaim. This is the only satisfaction she knows, with mascara thick across otherwise colorless lashes, blush bright on pale cheeks.
Here is one who is broken and seeks to be broken, again and again and again.
Here is one who puts all her worth in sex, and only in the deepest of her subconscious wishes it wasn't so.
The vicious cycle for a kunoichi.
Ino looks at the tube of pink lipstick for a moment, then puts it down.
She will wear red across lips today, for the allure of it.
