Ino got to her locker and put her 'unnecessary' stuff in the locker. She took what she needed for class and walked off.

She walked at a much faster pace to reach Kurenai's class which was at the end of the hallway. Ino entered the classroom and plopped herself down into the nearest desk to the window.

Soon the bell rang and Kurenai stepped into the classroom. "Hello class," Kurenai said with added effort. "-Mumble-," was the reply she got back.

She ignored the answer from her 'dead' class and continued on walking till she reached the front of the class. "Ok, today class we have a new student." Now something started. 'I hope it's a cute guy," all the girls sighed. (With the exception of Ino) "Hope it's a chick," the guys said while day dreaming about it.

"Very well Shikamaru you may come in," stated Kurenai. As soon as she said that the door opened revealing a boy with a lazy expression on his face.

"Ohhhhhh!" all the girls had hearts in their eyes. (Except Ino) The guys just sighed. They had competition.

He walked up to the front of the class and stood next to Kurenai. "Uhm… you can sit…" the girls were on the edge of their seats. (Except Ino she was staring out the window with her hood on.) "You may sit next to… Ino, she finally stated, who should take her hood off NOW." "And Shikamaru you may sit in the chair in front of her.

He made his way to his seat while Ino was in the process of taking her hood off and mumbling something along the lines of stupid teachers. Ino was getting glared at by the whole entire girl population of her class for the rest of the class period. 'Great!' she thought 'yet another fan club.'

During class she made no effort whatsoever to notice him and the same went for him. Kurenai just kept on talking about some algebra stuff and explaining the homework for tonight.

Ring!!!!!!! The school bell rang for 2nd period Ino made her way out of the class room but when she was about to Kurenai called her back.

"Ino I'd like to have a word with you before you leave." "Hn, yeah what ever." Ino I want you to, actually I order you to guide the new student around" explained Kurenai. "Yeah about that…never gonna happen teach." "Did I mention I have something if you do guide him around the school?" "At this Ino perked up just a little bit." Kurenai reached into her desk drawer to take out a skateboard. "Ino I'll give this back ONLY if you escort Shikamaru around AND be his partner for… let's see EVERYTHING. Clear?" "Whatever." "Ok then you may have this back." Kurenai tossed Ino's board at her and Ino caught it.

Ino walked out of the classroom being tailed by Shikamaru. They both walked off their 2nd periods.
