Hey its anime-neko-chan here. Sorry for not updating in sooo long. Hope you guys like the story so far.
Well here's chapter 4. dont forget to review!
While Sasuke was being dragged all over Konoha to shops, traning sites, and resturaunts, Ino and Shikamaru were kind of having a hard time at the flower shop because it was the annual flower sale, so alot of people were there. "Shouldn't you two be leaving soon?" Ino' mother asked.
"why? There are still some more people here." Ino said back. Mrs.Yamanaka sighed and said "You guys have been forgetting alot of stuff today...You made reservations at a resturant for today, remember?" "Can we call and save the table until we get done? I mean there isn't much left to do." Ino said. "We should be able to. I'll go check." Shikamaru said while walking over to the phone.
Shikamaru came back five minutes later. "They said that they can only hold the table for about an hour and thirty minutes more. That means that we have to work fast." he said. "An HOUR AND THIRTY MINUTES! We wont be able to finish in time, LOOK AT ALL OF THESE PEOPLE!" Ino yelled. "Calm down Ino. Have you forgotten that we are ninja. With our ninjutsu this will be easy, it should take about thirty-five minutes, and with the remaining time, we can use it to clean the shop and get ready." Shikamaru stated. Ino stared at shikamaru for a minute and then smiled, "So, what are we standing around for, let's get started." Ino said.
Shikamaru was right, within thirty-five minutes the shop was cleard of costermors. While they were cleaning the shop Ino began to notice something about Shikamaru, though he still had the same attitude that she knew and loved, she started to notice how he looked, even though she had seen him all this time, now is when she really started to watch and pay attention to him.
While Ino was spraying and wiping down the counters she noticed Shikamaru carring a heavey box to put on the shelf above what was left of the roses. Losing track of what she was doing she gazed at Shikamaru not missing one movement. Ino was pulled out of her "daydream" when her mother called her "Um, Ino, I think thats enough spra on the counter." her mother said.
Ino looked down at the counter to see what her mother was talking about. There down in front of her was a huge puddle of cleaning spray." Oh mt gosh, I an soo sorry mom." Ino said as she blushed from embarrasment. Shikamaru overherd what was said and also look at the counter. He smiled as if he was about to laugh. "HEY, what are you smiling for? I just got distracted, im sure the same thing would happen to you if you got distracted!" I no yelled at Shikamaru, still embarrased. "You're probaly right but I doubt it because I rarely get distracted." Shikamaru said cool like, which made Ino blush even more.
Shikamau was just smiling and trying to think of a way he could get her to blush more. "So Ino, what did you get distracted by anyway?" he asked. After remembering what got her distracted in the first place, her embarrasment blush tun into a somewht shy blush. She was scarlet allover and she began to do the finer thing that Hinata does. Shikamaru laughed and decided that he put her through enough "torture". "Well, we need to get ready for our date so im going to go home." he said as Ino nodded. "Bye" she said as he walked off.
After about twenty minutes Shikamaru was bavk at the flower shop to pick up Ino. "Ino! Shikamaru is here!" Ino's dad yelled. She walked down stairs, both her and Shikamaru were not expecting hat happend next. Ino was wearing a dark purple shirt with a light purple collar and she had on a matching skirt that would flare up if she were to spin around in circles. Shikamaru gazed surprisingly at Ino as if his jaw was about to drop, that's how good that he thought that she looked. Apparently Shikamaru's dad was also at the flower shop and he also saw what Ino looked like. "Alright now Shikamaru, dont be too rough with her tonight." Shikamaru's dad joked. Shikamaru and Ino both blushed and looked at the floor while their fathers laughed. Before they could say anything else Shikamaru grabbed Ino's hand and they both ran out the door. " That was sooo embarrasing." Ino said still holding Shikamaru's hand, not wantig to let go. " Yeah but it was mostly because you got dressed up." he said. Ino frowned.. "But if i knew that you were going to dress up so beauti- um, nice, I would have dressed up also." he added in a nice soft tone. Ino blushed at the comment, and they walked off still holding hands.
Well there's chapter 4 hope you liked it!
