Why did we split up, we were always together even our fathers did every thing with each other, so why did it end up like this.
It all started on that day...
"Hey Shikamaru what's going on." Asked Choji walking up to Shikamaru, he was smiling; his body armor gleamed in the sunlight.
"Nothing's happening, im bored as usual. The fifth is not giving us any new missions so I decided to hang here."
Said Shikamaru who lit a cigarette, he took long drags letting the smoke drift into the air.
"So why are you so happy Choji? Did the Ichiraku noodle shop add a new type of ramen to the menu?" asked Shikamaru as he flicked the ashes off his cigarette.
"Nope, my father taught me a new jutsu, I was hoping that I could spar against you and Ino. By the way, where is she?" asked Choji looking around; Ino was always with Shikamaru
"She decided to help her parents out at their flower shop; we could go get her if you want to." Said Shikamaru; he flicked the cigarette away, he and Choji walked to the flower shop.
As they got closer to the shop, they happened upon Ino rearranging some flowers.
"Hey Ino, whats going on" asked Choji looking at Ino, who looked better than usual in her flower shop uniform.
"Im Working for my parents, what are you guys doing here so early in the morning?" Asked Ino, who had a quizzical look on her face, she scratched her head.
"It's a drag but we would like you to train with us for a while, can you do it" asked Shikamaru who was looking up at the clouds.
"Sure I can, my parents' wont mind if I leave for a few hours, this should be fun" said Ino with a smile on her face as she told her parents that she was leaving.
"Ok let's go! I need a good fight. Girls have got to stay in perfect physical condition you know!" Said Ino who was skipping down the road to the training ground, She hummed a tune as they went along the road.
Ino sure is happy; she looks so pretty when she is like this. I wish that I could convey my feelings to her; I just have to figure out how to do that.
Thought Choji as he watched her skip and dance her way into the training grounds, they stepped on to the soft grass of the training grounds, and everything was going great until…
"CHOJI YOU IDIOT!" screamed Ino, her face turned bright red as she continued to yell at Choji, who had gotten in her way while she was preparing to attack Shikamaru.
"WHY CANT YOU WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING YOUR SUCHA FAT A- " Shikamaru stopped her from finishing her sentence.
"Ino, you know we can't use that Phrase in front of Choji… you know how he gets" whispered Shikamaru. He looked over at Choji who was now crying, he was trying to hide his tears from every one.
"YOU DON'T HAVE TO PROTECT HIM" screamed Ino who was jumping and pointing at Choji
"That's what he is... a fat-ass" Muttered Ino, her face was beet red. Choji stormed off leaving Ino and Shikamaru in the training grounds alone.
"You didn't have to say that Ino! You are always like this, Choji didn't mean to trip you up and you know it," said Shikamaru who was glaring at her Ino glared right back at him
"Well it was about damn time that some one told him the truth! Ever since Asuma-sensei died, you have been going too easy on him" said Ino who had no remorse for what she had done
"I don't know how he could love a girl like you Ino. You're always mean to him and you don't really care about what he has to say" Shikamaru Paused. He knew what he had to say.
"He is always in the forest training to impress you. You're the one he wants to protect, Can't you see that Ino!" said Shikamaru. Ino looked down at the green grass, then back at Shikamaru. She did not want to hear what he had to say.
"You know Shikamaru im leaving. I have had enough of you trying to lecture me" said Ino as she teleported back to the flower shop leaving Shikamaru alone in the training grounds.
"Stupid Choji" said Ino with tears in her eyes as she ran up to her room
"This whole thing has turned into one big drag…damn it." Said Shikamaru as he lit a cigarette and blew the smoke into the wind.
This whole thing started with a stupid fight. Will I be able to get my friends back together and will Choji work up the courage to ask her out. Or will their fighting finally drive me insane. Who knows? All I know is that I have to end this. I will lose two of my friends if I don't.
