"Ino! Hurry up or you'll be late!", my mom said frantically almost shouting, i don't know why would she shout. We live in a shack with two bedrooms a small kitchen,living room and bathroom. You could just talk normally and i would hear it inside my room the walls are paper thin but i love our house it's perfect for me we have a small garden full of different flowers the neighbors always compliment us, everything is perfect for me except that we are in debt that's the only downside of my life, ah oh well! It's early in the morning and i'm into drama already.

"umm.. Ino i'm really sorry but i didn't packed you a lunch.. we uh.. we have nothing." My mom said sadly, i just looked at her and smiled. "it's okay mom. I'll just pick apples from school because they're everywhere! I'll make sure to bring you some! You too dad!" i ran to them and kissed them on the cheek.

"bye!"

"bye darling!" they said to me.

Walking to school is like my time i can think of everything and no one will "disturb" me. That moment was short lived as my school appeared into view as i got nearer. Konoha High the most prestige school in Japan only the wealthiest can go there and well for me i'm a scholar i get to go to school with no tuition and what so ever and i'm thankful for that, i study hard so that i can pull our family up and no one will despise me.

When i walk to the school hall i always feel like i'm in a laboratory ready to be test on , everyone is looking at me like i'm a deadly bacteria, well they could suck it up because i'm already half-immune to it since the first day i was accepted here.

Oh! sorry i forgot to intruduce myself properly. Hi! I'm Ino Yamanaka i'm 14 years old and i live in a shack just like how i explained it a moment ago and the school also, and as for the looks well i'll say i'm different because i have a platinum blonde hair and i wear it in a low ponytail with bangs covering almost my whole face except for my left eye(ino's hair style is like from road to ninja) and the bluest eyes ever (my mom said so) and i wear our uniform like how the school told us to do so with no frills,ruffles,lace,sequins,silly looking socks, etc...

"ugh! Ouch" i mumbled.

Shikamaru's POV

There she goes again, Tsk, troublesome.

Why does she always do that? Always let the other kids do that to her?

It's like her daily routine. Walk through the halls like sadako(her hair) and fall to the ground where (in Que) the others laughs at her (and there goes the taunting)

"eww! Garbage!"

"why does the school guard let you in?"

"POOR you"

(insert laughs here)

Ino's POV

"!"

"get up" i looked up from where the voice came from.

"!" i got up and bowed to him "s-sorry for getting on your way"

Then i looked up at him and he looked at me like i was reciting a bad joke to him.

"you're not getting on my way"

"gasp!" i looked at him more like scrutinize him and just then he smiled at me!

Shikamaru Nara smiled at me! The wealthiest kid next to Hyuuga's smiled at me!

Dang! That was like the highlight of my day! Not that i have a crush on him or anything but when you're enrolled in Konoha High and the richest kid smiled (more like smirk) at you it's like a really big deal.

"this is so good!" i said mostly to myself as i started eating the apple i picked from one of the many trees here in school.

"really?"

"eek!" i squeaked from the voice

"sorry, for scaring you...umm i'm Shikamaru Nara" he extended his hand at me.

"i'm Ino Yamanaka" i wiped my hands on my skirt and offered it to him but before our hands could touch he withdraw his hands back.

I looked at him almost hurt that he played a trick on me but i realize he was doing something else.

He was wiping his hands on his slacks and extended it back to me.

I was shocked to see that. He took my hand and shake it "it's nice to meet you Ino".

"i-it's really nice to meet you too Shikamaru-san". I bowed a little after we shook our hands

"Oh just drop the suffix it annoys me" he said calmly

"o-OK" why do i stutter when i speak out loud but when comes to my thoughts i am completely different?

he pick an apple from a tree. "this is your lunch?"

"yeah" i looked away

He took a bite and said "Hmm.. they're healthy and juicy, mind if i join you here?"

I looked at him like he's out of his mind. No one ever said that word to me and i mean it no one.

"umm.. i don't think you would want to sit here with me" i said to him

Now it's his turn to look at me like i was out of my mind

"why not?"

"because everyone. . . because no one would want that especially you"

"especially me? What about me not wanting to sit here with you?"

Ugh! He ask questions like he's a child wanting to know everything!

"because you're Shikamaru Nara one of the wealthiest and popular kid in here"

"tsk, troublesome. I really hate it when people judge me by my name, just Because i'm a Nara you already think i'm like the rest of them, small minded?"

"No! That's not what i really meant! I just... I.. I.. Ugh! I don't know! My head is just like programmed to those things."

"tsk"

"fine, i don't mind you joining me here." I offered a small smile.

"hmm.." he almost smiled he looks like his holding it back.

"you're really troublesome you know?" he picked his bento box opened it and nudge it a little at me.

"... No I'm not."

Hey!

So how was it? Want me to continue or just end it?
