Shikamaru Thoughts

Ino Thoughts

I DO NOT OWN NARUTO OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS

-Chapter 2- What?

As Shikamaru leaned towards Ino he started to softly sing the song "I Dont Care" By Apocalyptica. He didnt know why could sing this to Ino. SHIKAMARU! NOOO! She silently screamed. Shikamaru walked out of the house and he was mentally killing himself by doing this. Ino ran out the door and screamed, with tears in her eyes, " I LOVE YOU YOU IDIOT! WHY CANT YOU SEE THAT!" Shikamaru turned around and mouthed the words," Goodbye. I love you to. You need to know why." He had to. He had to wait for her to see what would happen. She needs to realize what could happen... Shikamaru thought.

- 1 week after Shikamaru left -

Ino was in the flower shop counting the money she earned and thought about stuff that happened recently. Both are gone.. One just left me... The other was arrested to sexual assult. Ino smiled to herself and then broke down crying. She lie on the shop floor crying as hard as ever. She then heard a knock on the door. She went to see what it was and saw Sakura. She opened the door and let Sakura in and then tackled her. " I-Ino! Whats wrong.." She hesitated for a minute then said," It has to do with him doesnt it..." Ino looked up at her and nodded. " I-I cant stop thinking about him... He told me to think about it. I have no clue when he's going to come back..." Ino burst into tears again.

- 1 month after Shikamaru left -

Ino sat in her shop. She finally got enough money to cut and dye her hair. Ino jumped up and closed the shop up and ran to the hair place. " What can I do for you today miss?" " Umm... Id like you to cut my hair to here," She pointed to where she wanted it. ",and it to be dyed black please." " Im sorry miss we are out of dye right now but I can cut your hair?" Ino smiled. " Yeah.. That works. Thanks." As Ino left the hair place she felt her hair and how short it was. " Ahh. So nice!" It was the middle of summer and Ino wanted to be a bit cooler with her hair short. I wonder when Shikamaru's coming back.. She wasnt to upset now because she knew Shikamaru would come back to her sometime. She finally realized 3 weeks ago what he meant when he said, well mouthed," You need to know why."

- 3 months after Shikamaru left -

Ino was sitting on the couch when her doorbell rang. She stood up and looked in the mirror before opening the door. Her hair got longer. She then opened the door and tears came to her eyes. Shika... She leaped at him and hugged him tightly. " I-Ino! You cut your hair!" Ino then realized what she was doing. " S-Shikamaru! YOu baka!" She tackled him again. " I know what you meant now! But... You.. Didnt have to leave for so long did you?" Ino looked up at him. Shikamaru blushed and lightly kissed her hair.

" Well... I got caught up in some stuff. I went to neighboring villages and asked if they needed any help. Ahaha..." Shikamaru laughed nervously. Ino looked at him and smiled. Damn... Shes gotten... Beautiful... Ino walked away and sat on the couch. She spread her arms. " Shika? Whats wrong! Come sit with me!" Ino smiled and giggled. " WAIT! I bet your hungry! Lets go to dinner! It'll be our first date!" Shikamaru frowned. " What happened to Gaara?" Ino looked at Shikamaru with a small look. " H-He's in jail for sexual assult.." Shikamaru walked over to Ino and grabbed her hand.

Knock Knock Ino cocked her head and went to the door. " Ah! Sakura! Shikmarus back!" Sakura looked in and saw Shikamaru scratching his head with that dumb look upon his face. Sakura frowned and slapped Shikamaru hard, but not hard enough that he would fly out the window. " OWW! SAKURA! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!" Sakura smiled and hugged Ino and left. Ino stood. laughing. " I-Ino?" Ino turned and smiled at Shikamaru. He blushed again. She really matured... Shikamaru walked over to her and grabbed her hands.

" S-Shika?" Ino stuttered. Shikamaru leaned over and kissed her forehead. " Ino... Tell me you'll be mine forever." Ino blushed and softly said," I-Im yours forever.." Shikamaru smiled. " Say it with confidence.." Ino smiled and looked into Shikamaru's eyes. " I am yours forever Shikamaru." Shikamaru leaned over and kissed her deeply.
