Wooohoo Here I am. So just started in school 3 weeks ago, and there is tons of homework each day. But I finally got around to write a new chapter. AND it's longer this time almost 2000 words more than normally.
I have holiday next week so hopefully I will have lots of time to write. :D
Hope all of you still enjoy to read!
Still the story is rated: M. And I don't own Naruto.
Over the next couple of days Ino stopped by Naruto's place almost every day. She had used different excuses each time for her mother for staying out late, and she was amazed how she was already almost out of ideas. And she couldn't use Sakura as an excuse much anymore, as even she was becoming too suspicious and would soon start asking questions. She would soon have to apply to some after school activity to help her with excuses. She had already thought about choir. She knew their school had their own choir, She had always loved to sing, and had been told on many occasions that she was pretty good.
They had kept to all the rules. No one knew of their doings, until one fatal day. It had been like any of the other days, Ino would stay after school, using an excuse about talking to some teacher. After giving her a strange look, what they had been doing more and more lately, her friends left their separate ways home. Sharing a knowing look with Naruto, he to left on his motorcycle.
She waited 20 minutes before she began her way to Naruto's place. She couldn't risk any of their friends seeing her go that way, as she was living in the different side of town the same as Sakura, than Naruto was. They would know where she was going. And even though Naruto had said their friends wouldn't find that as weird as her, her mother could never find out where she was going. Her mother had some kind of sixth sense and she would immediately know what they were up to.
Walking the whole way she arrived within a half hour. Naruto had suggested that he could drive her, but she knew people would recognize her after some time, so she had kindly declined. People would probably call her paranoid but they didn't know her mother like she did.
She knocked on his door and like all the other times, even before she was inside their lips and hands were roaming each other. But what made this day special was the guest that decided to come by almost unannounced.
The two blondes were in a very heated moment when it knocked on the door.
But as Naruto, who was struggling getting Ino's bra up whilst lavishing her throat in tender licks and kisses, didn't hear the knock.
Ino concentrated on getting Naruto's pants down and the wonderful feeling of the wet organ on her throat, she didn't hear anything either.
Getting impatient over the pace of Naruto's bra skills, she huffed and pushed herself up from the madras, and made them switch places so she was sitting on top of him. She experiential opened her bra.
Leaning over him she moved her face closer and closer to his. "I think I'm becoming addicted to this." She whispered before placing her lips on top of his.
Naruto mumbled something into the kiss, which Ino didn't care to ask what was, as she would have to break the kiss. When the knock sounded harder this time, that it sounded like it could blow down the door.
Ino sat up straight as an arrow. "Did you expect someone?"
"No. It's probably just the landlady." He gently pushed Ino of him, and pulled up his pants Ino had managed to take down half. "Let me go take care of this."
Ino laid back down pulling the sheet over her half naked body in modesty, even though Naruto had closed the door behind him.
A couple of minutes went by and still Naruto had not returned. She couldn't hear anything indicating there was someone in the house. Getting impatient lying like a cheap girlfriend waiting for her lover, she got up and covered herself better in the sheet. She soundlessly opened the door and peered out. Still there was no sign of anyone. She stepped out to look around.
Suddenly she heard some mumbling and Naruto laugh sheepishly from the front door. But before she could sneak a peek she heard the door close. Thinking Naruto had made the person leave, she relaxed a little more and went to ask him who it was that could take so long.
"Naruto who was-"She stopped midsentence, looking as if she had seen a ghost.
"Ino!" Sasuke exclaimed, his voice showing, probably for the first time in his life, an emotion, pure shock.
"Hey." She said with a grimace, raising her hand in the air in greeting. "What are you doing here?" She asked in a crooked voice. She felt her world slowly falling apart.
"Naruto and I are partners in a project. I said I would come by today. But the moron forgot that." Sasuke scowled towards Naruto, who was scratching his neck sheepishly.
"But what I don't get is why you are here. You and Naruto aren't-"He stopped when he realized what she was wearing, he got the idea. "Oohh."
"It's not like…We are not even-"
Sasuke put his hand up as a signal to stop. "I don't… want to know." Sasuke interrupted her with a stern face.
"Please don't tell anybody. Nobody can hear about this." Ino began again, this time in a desperate voice.
Sasuke gave one nod "Sure, no problem." Not making Ino more comfortable with that promise.
A thick awkward silence fell over them. "So as you two are probably busy right now I will come back another time. I will just begin on my own." Sasuske turned embarrassed towards the door.
Ino turned shocked to Sasuke's retrieving form. "That wouldn't be fair. I can leave."
He shook his head, his face completely pink. "Just…stay. It's fine." See you tomorrow." He gave a short wave and left out the door.
Naruto with a big smile on his face waved after him. "See you teme." Ino gave him a soft nudge in the side with her elbow, a smile on her lips.
"I can't believe that just happened." Ino replied mortified. "Do you think he won't tell?"
Naruto scuffed his shoulders. "Sure. It's Sasuke."
Walking past him she said in a low threatening voice "Good. Or I will kill you both." She returned to the bedroom.
The next day, Sasuke had seemed to keep his word, as there were no jokes or anybody laughing when either Naruto or Ino arrived at school. Nobody had mentioned anything about any of it, until lunch.
As soon as the bell had rung, the boys had run outside with their books to their usual table outside in the school yard. The table was on the grassy part of the school yard, placed also right next to a tree. Naruto and Kiba had immediately thrown themselves in the grass, scattering their books all around them. Shikamaru had slumped down against the tree, as he always did.
Sasuke was the only one who had seated himself at the actual table, his head already down in a book.
They were all joking around with each other, enjoying the last sunrays of summer. Waiting for the girls to dump their books in their lockers and arrive with the food.
When Kiba said something that made Naruto choke on his breath. "Isn't it weird how you and Ino have become so lovely friendly with each other?"
Trying to get air into his lungs Naruto replied. "I have no idea what you are talking about." He coughed.
"You two seem like such a nice couple." Kiba grinned.
"Shut up." Naruto growled and howled himself at his friend, tackling him to the ground; they tumbled around on the ground, hitting each other.
Almost immediately after a girl voice cut through their antics. "Must you two always fight?" They froze and looked up at the group standing in front of them, looking down at them. Naruto's arm was raised in the air ready to slam in to Kiba's face, and Kiba's knee very closely to Naruto's groin. Kiba also held strands of Naruto's hair, twisting his blonde friends head in a fun angle.
Looking down at them was; Hinata, Sakura and Ino. Each was holding a tray in their hands, a sea of sandwiches on top of them. After giving the boys a strange look, Sakura turned and joined her boyfriend on the bench. She kissed him hello on the cheek and sat down next to Sasuke, she handed him a sandwich.
Rolling her eyes at the teens on the ground Ino turned and sat down on the bench, opposite of the happy couple.
Grumbling for himself Kiba let go of Naruto's hair and sat up. Hinata shyly sat down beside him, also handing him a sandwich.
Crawling a little closer, Naruto tried to pick a sandwich from the tray Hinata had just placed on the ground, but seeing him out of the corner of his eye, Kiba quickly pulled it away from him with his finger. He smiled smugly at his friend. Naruto frowned and sat back.
"Hey Naruto, here catch." Ino threw a sandwich to Naruto.
"Just see. A girlfriend that brings her boyfriend a sandwich. How sweet." Kiba joked.
"That's only because you won't let me have any of yours. And I said shut up." Naruto hissed under his breath. He hit his friend one last time over the head, trying to get him to shut up.
Raising an eyebrow Ino looked curiously at Naruto. "What are you talking about?"
"It's nothing."Naruto shook his head. Praying that Kiba would keep his mouth shut. He gave Ino his most innocent smile, trying his best to hide his panic. Ino kept looking at him suspiciously, but then shrugged and bit into her own sandwich. He let out a silent breath of joy.
They finished up their lunch and went to their separate lockers to change out their books. It was their last lesson of the day, and they were having Kakashi in math. Kakashi was a teacher that took his job very much seriously and enjoyed it, but he was also known for being very lazy and not very strict when it came to his students. For people outside he would look as a failure, who only concentrated on his porn book rather than his students.
But for his students he was a great teacher, which not only taught them, but let them learn in their own way. And when his students sat reading for themselves, who could blame him if his book suddenly appeared.
Kakashi had started by explaining them a new equation, and then written some examples and problems on the blackboard, they had to solve themselves.
The room was dead quiet; everybody concentrated on solving the problems, except Ino. She sat leisurely letting her gaze wonder around the classroom. Not really in the mood to do the math. What did it matter anyway, her mother had her whole life planned out for her. She would work in their family's flower shop until she one day would marry into a high society family. Bringing both glory and money to her family, Ino sometimes wondered if her mother even knew what year they were in.
When she let her gaze pass Naruto, she widened her eyes. Had he just-
She looked back. And truly enough, he smiled and winked at her again. She gaped and her wide eyes became even wider. She became furiously red and looked fast around the classroom. Looking at everybody, she saw they were busy, except Shikamaru who had fallen asleep over his. Nobody had noticed, luckily.
The nerve of that guy. She mimicked furiously at him if he was out of his mind, and that everybody could see. He just shrugged, and smiled even broader, he puckered his lips.
Her fist clenched hard, she bit into her lip not to yell at him. She could kill him, he was doing this just to upset her.
"Naruto, Ino as your teacher I must prove to be a good example and all that silliness disturbs your classmates." Kakashi spoke from his desk, not lifting his gaze from his book.
Both Ino and Naruto froze as all of their classmates looked at them, some of them snickering. Sakura looked inquiring at her, but Ino refused to meet her eyes.
"Sorry Kakashi-sensei." They mumbled.
"I think both of you will be better off with a short break. " He continued, still not looking at either of them.
"Wha-"Ino began to complain, but was immediately cut off.
He pointed to the door. "Twenty minutes in the hallway, both of you."
Ino slumped up against the wall. "Why did you do that? I don't think I have ever been outside the class before." She asked in a pathetic voice.
He raised his eyebrow in mock surprise. "First time huh? There's a first time for anything right, you're living on the wild side now." Naruto said snickering.
She groaned and turned her head so fast her ponytail made swipes in the air. "Shut up. I can't believe it. My mom's going to freak."
"You know you look kinda tempting when you are mad."
She let her hands fall from her head, where she had been massaging her scalp. "What?" She asked in pure surprise, not expecting this from him.
Looking out into the hallway, he spoke true from his heart. "That's why I did that. I like to get a reaction out of you."
For a long time all Ino did was stare at him. "So you like to get a reaction." She said predominantly, as to herself, as she walked closer to him.
Getting a little afraid of her nearing him, he prepared for the worst. What he hadn't expected was for her to grab his face and pull it down level to hers.
"Then that is what you shall get."
He gulped. Their lips so close they were almost touching. When they were no more than a breath away, Ino remembered where they were and pulled back.
Feeling her pull back Naruto opened his eyes, not even remembering closing them. He watched her walk back to where she had been standing before; she leaned against the wall again.
"What was that about?" He asked breathy.
"Kakashi could come out or any of our friends."
"Come on then I know the best place." Not giving her anytime to response, he took her wrist and dragged her with him.
"This is your best place?" Ino asked sarcastically. They were standing in the janitors old broom closet. It was opposite of the lockers and far enough away from any classrooms that anybody would hear them.
"Yeah it's not my bedroom or the most cossy place on earth-"
"Or cleanest." Ino mumbled.
"But it's private. The janitor doesn't come until after we have left."
"How do you know that?"
In the slit of light from the not fully closed door, she saw him blush. He reached his arm behind his head and scratched nervously, a slight tug at the corner of his mouth.
He began, laughing embarrassed. "Well-"
"I don't want to know."
Naruto reached around Ino, he grabbed the handle and closed the door, engulfing them in total darkness. He spun her around, so he could press her up against the closet wall.
With a few minutes of groping their breaths had turned erratic and both ready to finish this. He set his hands under her thighs and lifted her up.
With stifled laughs they tumbled out of the closet, into the empty hallway. Or it would have been had it not been for their raven haired friend, standing at his locker thrashing through his backpack, on the opposite side of the bathroom, so to say right in front of them.
At the sound of the door and not so subtle snickers, he looked up from it to see what all the commotion was about. Freezing Sasuke stood still as a stone. His face contracted into something between amazement and disbelieving. The couple stiffed completely when they saw who it was standing in front of them.
The hallway fell silent once again. As neither of the three teens knew what to say. On one hand, Ino and Naruto didn't want to amid to what everybody could have guessed they had been doing. And Sasuke simply didn't want to acknowledge the situation. Naruto was scoffing his foot, looking down at the floor.
So in a long time nobody spoke. Until Ino no longer could take the awkward tension between them.
"Shouldn't you be in class?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I got to go earlier as I finished up." Sasuke retorted in a flat voice.
Getting back at Ino he asked smugly. "Shouldn't you two be standing outside the classroom?"
Blushing furiously Ino conquered. "Are we just unlucky? Or a you following us."
"First; if that was it, then I would be the most unlucky in all of this, as I keep bumping into you two and your ordeals. And second, do you really have to do that kind of thing at school?" He looked at the closet behind them with dislike.
Naruto shrugged his shoulders lightly and coughed, finally speaking up for the first time. "Well, Ino-AW!" He grabbed his arm. He was interrupted by a hard hit on his arm.
"Don't you dare blame this on me." She hissed at him.
"Well, I'm just glad it wasn't Kiba, he's already to suspicious of us." Naruto said nursing his arm.
"What?!" Ino screeched. "I thought you said it was nothing."
"He hasn't figured it out yet. He's just noticed how we are talking a lot more to each other."
Throwing her hands up she burst out. "Aw come on, we were talking before to." She looked at each of the boys.
When none of the boys answered her on it, she furrowed her brows. "Was it really that bad?"
"Nahh…" Naruto sounded. Sasuke nodded his head. Before Ino could make any further comment on it, the bell suddenly rang and the hallway would be full of students in mere seconds.
"I need to go back and get my bag. I just hope Kakashi will let us off we ditched his punishment." She put her hand on his cheek, leaning up she gave him a quick peck on the other. "See you later." And with that she disappeared down the hallway.
With his jaw hanging, Naruto looked after her. "Did you just see-"
"I didn't see anything." Sasuke interrupted him uninterested. Closing his locker he too went away. Leaving Naruto to stand alone at the closet entrance. He would have to go back too and get his books from the classroom, he just hoped he and Ino wouldn't be in too much trouble for skipping punishment.
Ino walked back alone to the classroom, she took the long way so she hopefully wouldn't meet anybody. And giving Kakashi a chance to leave the classroom. Deeply lost in her own thoughts.
She didn't know what, there was just something about what her and Naruto was doing. She had for the first time in her life done something against a teacher's orders. And because of a boy, she never did anything like that; it had always been the other way around. She couldn't tell if she was just addicted, and a complete closet pervert. And that was the reason she had initiated the kiss. Or if there was something else-
She vigorously shook her head. She shouldn't be thinking like anything in that direction of thinking.
Sakura had made Sasuke come with her to the library. With upcoming exams before the holidays they hadn't seen much to each other. And with college applications coming up, it wouldn't become easier.
So wanting to at least spend some time together, she had dragged him with her, when she had met him in the hallway.
Sitting closely at a table together she would occasionally throw him glances over her book, not that he noticed any of it. If she had known he would become such a distraction, she might have rethought her plan.
Tracing his smooth jawline, up to his cheek and further up to his downcast eyes, she sighed. When she was suddenly pulled out of her musings by a soft voice, not far behind her.
But as she tried to concentrate on the voice, the person stopped speaking, she was hundred she knew that voice.
Trying to concentrate on what she had actually come here for, she resumed her eyes down in her book. When she heard the voice again. This time a little louder.
"Can't we at least talk about it?"
She slowly turned in her seat, her book now totally forgotten on the table in front of her. She looked at a bookshelf a little behind her, the voice coming from behind it.
Now she was sure who it was-
"Naruto?" She asked testing.
"Sakura!" Naruto squeaked.
A few hushes was heard all around, but Sakura ignored them. She rose from her seat and went around the bookshelf. And truly enough, Naruto was sitting in one of the libraries comfy sofa's.
Sakura looked mildly shocked at him.
"What are you doing here?" In all of the years Sakura had known Naruto, she had never seen him set even a foot in the library, and now he was sitting in one. She was thoroughly confused. Was the world maybe going under? She cast a glance outside the window. Everything was fine.
"You know, I thought I had to finally see what all this fuss about the library was all about. My last year and all." He chuckled nervously.
"Who were you talking to?" Sakura asked. Not seeing anyone beside or near him.
Feeling like being in interrogation he stuttered and laughed. Ah nobody, I was just reading aloud. You know, keeps me…Focused."
He quickly grabbed a book that luckily lay on the edge of the sofa. Gods know he was not reading when Sakura had heard him. Holding up the book to glance at it, Sakura leaned in and read the title.
It read "Elements of random walk and diffusion processes".
Pulling back Sakura raised a brow, and with a hand in her side, she gave him a "are you serious?" glare.
Looking at her strange reaction he looked at the book himself and gaped. Trying to act relaxed, as if he was serious he had been reading the book. "It's pretty boring. Not my taste at all."
She shook her head. All she had ever seen Naruto read freely was his comic books.
"If you say so." Sakura gave up finding out what this was all about. She left Naruto and returned to Sasuke's side. Now wearing an even bigger scowl.
"What happened to you?" She asked confused. He only groaned in response and returned to his book.
Stepping outside the library Naruto was roughly pulled to the side. Coming face to face with a very stressed Ino.
"So? Did she fall for it?" She asked antagonized.
"I think so. She might have become a little suspicious when I showed her the book I was so called "reading"." He told her what had happened.
"You did what?!"
"Can you blame me? I panicked. It was lucky that you were so close to me and speaking low, so she couldn't hear you."
"Let's just get out of here." She said, wich they both agreed on.
Right before they left out the door of the school, Ino told him. "I had to run by Sasuke. I think he guessed we were there together. He didn't seem too pleased." Naruto just laughed in reply.
TBC
Hope you all liked and will leave a review. Always makes it all the more nice to write :)
It will get more serious maybe not from the next chapter, but the next again.
