Here's the continuation of the story! Im so glad you guys are liking it!! :D thanks to EVERYONE who reviewed. You know who you are, seriously. Sorry it took so long. I got lazy. Hehehe.
Ino found that a couch was unoccupied, so that wass where she sat. She saw right across the sofa and the people occupying it were Sasuke, Shikamaru and Kiba respectively. There was another one person couch beside the sofa which Inoichi occupied. And one wooden chair to the other side of the sofa which Neji occupied, and the same wooden chair but beside the couch Ino occupied which Gaara took the liberty of sitting on.
"I was just discussing some policies they have to follow…" Inoichi explained and covered as Ino was sitting down. "Oh…" she said plopping herself on the soft couch. She crossed her legs.
"So, what are you guys doing here so early in the morning?" she asked in an annoyed manner raising a trim eyebrow at the 5 guys. She also looked pretty bored. Ino started tapping her fingers on the couch's arm rest.
"Well…" Kiba started.
Ino let out a grunt, "ugh. I know you're here for daddy and all that impressing him and me stuff…but did it really have to be this early? And seriously…was this like planned?!" Ino asked them totally frustrated.
"I'm guessing you had a bad morning…" Sasuke side-commented.
"Yes! I had a bad morning. I slipped and fell on my ass because I was too busy staring wide-eyed at the flock that just formed in my living room!" she started yelling and waving her hands exasperated in the air.
Inoichi laughed nervously and stood up, "Ino…do you want your orange juice?" he asked his daughter. Her face softened and she looked at her dad, she gave him a smile, "yes please, daddy!" she said to him. He nodded and walked off into the kitchen. She needs to figure this out on her own. Inoichi thought while walking toward the kitchen.
Daddy Yamanaka had a plan of his own. Inoichi decided he'd go along with his daughter's shenanigans, but in that way, he'd also find some way to teach her a lesson. It wasn't really going to be Inoichi to choose Ino's boyfriend, but more of her. But he also liked being part of it, he liked the idea of the boys impressing him. He could judge who he found would be best for Ino. And being the best will not be easy. He would really make it the real deal and see who would be fit for Ino. That wont be a piece of cake. The boys will really have to work for it. Not only for Inoichi but also for Ino. Inoichi will also always take into consideration Ino's position in the whole situation. Yup that was the plan. He wants the best for Ino, after all.
The boys all just stared at her, "well don't stare at me like that…" she spat out when her dad got into the kitchen. "who's gonna spill?" Ino asked.
"No…it wasn't planned." Shikamaru stated.
"we kinda just saw each other headed toward the same direction…" Sasuke said. "Oh God…" Ino said slapping her forehead. She then looked at the clock in the room and grumbled, "It's 8.30…" she said to them.
"We figured we'd start this whole thing as early as possible." Kiba told her.
"This is so not getting on my good side, you do know that." Ino let them know. "seriously, who came here for me?" she asked around the room.
The guys all looked down guiltily. "No one?!" she asked freaked, "only for my dad?!" she asked completely shocked. "Don't write me off this game!" she yelled—demanding. Sasuke bit his lower lip, Neji and Gaara shot their eyes closed, Shikamaru rubbed the bridge of his nose and Kiba pursed his lips.
"Ughh…!" she said infuriated and leaned back on the couch. "You guys are so full of it…" she stated simply. After she said that she shut her eyes closed, then she opened them and looked around the room. That's when she realized she also just loved hanging out with them all.
Ino sat up straight again and let out a sigh, "So…how are ya'll coming along with my dad?" she asked, her voice soft and sweet. They all looked up at her and smiles started forming on their faces. Then all the guys started looking at each other.
"We're off to a good start…" Gaara told Ino, "I think."
"Well…" Ino sighed then leaned back, "as long as Daddy doesn't give me talks later, you're off the hook for today…" Ino told them.
"Is it really our fault we came here early?" Neji questioned her.
Ino shrugged indifferently, "well…you decided when to come over."
"We didn't know you weren't such a morning person…" Kiba said to her. She chuckled then looked around at the other boys in the room, her arms crossed over her chest and her legs still crossed, her back way deep into the cushions of the couch.
"Who here knows I'm not exactly the sunshine princess?" Ino asked around. Shikamaru, Sasuke and Gaara guiltily raised their hands. They looked down at the floor-sure they knew, but they just forgot.
"There's your answer, babe." Ino mocked Kiba with his former pet name, a smirk on her face.
So how was it? Hope you liked. ;) If you like an angry Kiba, "pervy" guys, Sasuke and Gaara bringing breakfast...well, I hope to see you all (who like this story) in the next chapter. :) I heart reviews, and you!
