I made this story because one of my friends hated Sakura, so that's why I wrote this story. Heehee. Hope you like it Ino & Sasuke fans.

Komara

The "Romantic" Novel (sneak preview)

For hours, Ino had laid on her pink bed; her hands sandwiched between her head and pillow, and stared blankly at her floral wall border. Her squad had finished their missions earlier than the other teams in the village, so this was her day off from Shikimaru and Chouji. Though she had that happy thought in her mind, she was bored and desperate for real action.

Ino's team had finished first, but with the fact that they had the worst missions. They had the most pathetic "missions" like feeding Mrs. Shibuyio's hamster or volunteering for Konoha's annual weapon polish day. Rumor said that Team 7, Sakura's team was issued to protect a bridge builder who was being hunted by the highest class criminals. And of course they beat the stuffing out of them because the famous Copy ninja Kakashi and Sasuke, Ino's crush were there. Of course, Ino knew Sakura and Naruto wouldn't stand a chance. Right?

'I know Naruto would never improve from what I've seen all those years in Ninja Academy, but what if Sakura improved? Naw! Mrs. Billboard-brow wouldn't. She couldn't' Ino laughed at the thought though with half belief.

Ino gathered her energy to hoist herself up and off her comfy bed. The sun was shining warmly on her skin as Ino walking bare footed across her carpet floor. Her head ached as she picked up the phone on her drawer and dialed with one pointer finger. In one ring, the receiving phone picked up.

"Nara residents. May I help you?" The woman answered.

"Hello Mrs. Nara, this is Ino Yamanaka speaking. I Shikimaru-kun here?" Ino spoke in her politest voice. She knew how strict Shikimaru's mother was. She could just imagine her frowning while using her sharpest kunai knife to chop up carrot sticks congruent to fingers.

"No. Shikimaru has gone off to training with his father and you should be training also." She replied.

"Um. Yes, Mrs. Nara. Could you tell Shikimaru I called?" Ino asked, trying to sound urgent.

"Ok, bye." The phone buzzed as she heard the other phone click off. Ino slumped back on her bed and let out a long sigh. 'Great. Shikimaru's gone off training. His mom probably forced him, and Chouji is off eating. I really need to practice my Mind Transfer Jutsu. There always is a flaw to it. Maybe I could get Asuma Sensei too--'. Suddenly, she heard Sakura and that idiot Naruto arguing about training together and training with Sasuke. Ino smirked. 'This is the perfect time to practice…'

She creped up to the open window and peered out to see her hottie, Sasuke, Sakura-Chan, and Naruto. Kakashi, the Copy Warrior vanished.

"Then I'm going home." Sasuke said and was walking away. 'Perfect, I'll get him now, so Naruto and Billboard-brow won't notice. Not that it even matters.'

"Mind Transfer Jutsu!" Ino whispered and slumped against her wall fast asleep. Z-zap! Sasuke felt a tingle in his body and his mind separated from his body. 'What?' He thought.

"Oh," Sakura said in alarm. "Hey! Sasuke, wait up! I…was wondering if…"

She giggled as Naruto looked on helplessly and bummed out.

"If we, you know…you and I…just the two of us could work on our, um…our teamwork?" Sakura coed. 'Oh, Sakura, only if you knew. Sasuke-kun is mine.' Ino thought.

"You're as bad as Naruto-kun. Even his skills are better than yours!

Why don't you two practice together? I have to meet Ino-Chan for our date today." Ino said disguised in Sasuke's body and voice.

'WHAT!! That Ino-pig!! Sasuke couldn't fall for her!!! NO!' Sakura screamed.

Ino walked away with a smile that was shown on Sasuke's face. After turning around the corner, Ino headed into the building and into her room. She picked up her body and carried it outside of her door. Obsessed with Sasuke, she examined him in her mirror and smelled the scent of his navy blue shirt. Then she sat on her bed and released her mind from Sasuke's body, returning herself to her usual white and skinny body with her favorite purple clothes.

Opening the door and closing it once more but with a click of the lock, she saw Sasuke-kun sitting on her bed in silent confusion.

"Oh, Sasuke-kun! What are you doing in my room?" Ino said in her sweet voice. She walked up to Sasuke and sat down on his lap facing chest to chest. Ino took off her pony-tail and let it flutter down as it draped around them. She wrapped her two arms around Sasuke and got up close to his face and showed him her bright blue eyes, and kissed him right on his warm lips. The best part was that Sasuke didn't struggle, but kissed her back.
