Naruto and Ino: Til Death Do Us Part
You Look Cute When You Blush
By kiwi4me~
The next couple of days were okay to say the least… it was Monday, two days after the event. Ever since the party, they became friends and that made him warm inside. He couldn't help but let a smile grace his face as he continued his route to school.
He didn't know why, but he wants to see those big sky blue eyes, those long golden locks, to touch her soft delicate skin, to… wait!
He shook his head slightly to clear his mind. He shouldn't be thinking of something like that! They just became friends and here he is thinking of her in such ways that he felt disgusted with himself. The smile slowly faded away from his lips cursing himself all the while.
"Yo Naruto!" a voice called out to him. The blonde haired man turned to see Kiba running toward him with a confused and puzzled look.
"Yo Ki…" but before Naruto was able to finish his greeting, the brown haired male interrupted him.
"Did you forget to tell me something two nights ago?" Kiba asked eyeing his friend.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked confused himself.
"You sure you don't know?" Kiba asked unbelievingly as his eyes narrowed.
"Yeah, why? And stop looking at me like that!" Naruto pointed at his friend angrily for being accused of something he didn't do…
"Yamanaka Ino."
Or did…
"Uh…" Naruto just chuckled nervously while rubbing the side of his head. Kiba stared at him and gave off an aggravated sigh.
"You were going to hide it from me?" he asked sadly almost pouting.
"Nah man, I was going to tell you but it slipped my mind…" Naruto said quickly not wanting his best bud to be angry at him for something like that, but then a thought occurred, "… wait, how'd you know?"
Kiba stared at his friend for a moment wondering what the hell happened that night. Unfortunately he isn't able to recall much but making out with a girl… he thinks... he hopes that is. His face scrunched up a little at thinking he was kissing a man… a small vile almost came out but he gulped it back down.
"Yo…" Naruto said breaking him from his thoughts as his friends hand touched his shoulder.
"I'm good," he said giving his friend an awkward smile before it fell into a frown upon hearing a voice.
"Naruto!" the voice called out making the two men turn to the owner.
"Sakura!" Naruto screamed back smiling as she stopped before him. Her face was that of disbelief, sadness, and anger?
"Naruto, I just have one question for you," she stated watching the blonde nod slowly as his smile faded.
"Last night…" she said recalling what had occurred, "… what did you do after I left?" she watched as Naruto's face became confused and then thoughtful.
"Um… why?" he decided to ask wondering what had gotten his two friends so weird.
"It's because…" the pink head was about to say until a voice boomed over causing all three to stare.
"Yo! Spikey head!" a rough voice called out with an accusing finger pointed at Naruto. As he got closer with a girl and another man behind him, Naruto almost couldn't believe what the hell was going on.
"Listen," he said lower but with venom laced into his voice, "… you are a loser, lowest of the low… so don't you dare go near Ino again or things wont be pretty… for you!" he finished with his face mere millimeters away. Naruto just stared at him before anger beckoned out of his mouth.
"I don't have to do anything you say," Naruto said through clenched teeth with fisted hands, "… only she can tell me to stay away from her!"
"You think she wants you to talk to her again?" the man backed away a couple feet laughing out loud causing the other two behind him to laugh along.
"Don't be stupid! She isn't in your league and why would someone like her would talk to you!" the guy smirked seeing Naruto's baffled expression.
"Don't talk about my bud like that!" Kiba screamed with his fist clenched so tight that it was turning white.
"And what are you going to do about it? Not invite me to your party?" the guy said laughing as the girl from behind him walked forward.
"You should keep your hands to yourself Kiba-kun."
Kiba just stared at her than remembered that this was that girl; purple hair, dark skin… he was relieved it wasn't a man, but holy crap!
Shit!
"Do you remember me Kiba-kun?" the purple haired woman asked sweetly with her lips twisted into a smirk. Kiba growled wanting to slap himself but cursed himself instead.
"Kai…" a voice called out as it neared the small crowd breaking the eerily silence. The man who practically told Naruto off turned around as the rest of the eyes turned to see who it was.
Ino… Naruto thought to his self as a small smile was placed on his lips.
"Ino," the man called Kai said with a soft velvety voice that was so different from the rough one. Ino smiled at him with someone walking beside her.
"See Sai, I told you he was probably getting into troubles again," she said with a soft giggle as the raven haired man smiled back at her pleasantly.
"Yes Ino, you are correct," he said before they stopped in front of them, "… Now Kai, I would like the drawing back."
Sai extended his hand waiting for Kai to give him what he wanted.
"Uh…" Kai begun to say scratching the side of his cheek before backing away slowly, then heading off into a run before saying, "… I gotta go do something!"
"W… wait Kai!" the girl called out running after the man.
"Geez those two…" the man said softly before turning to greet the two, "Good morning Ino, Sai."
"Morning," the two said in returned and then her eyes landed on Kiba, Sakura, and Naruto. All three looked baffled, confused, and relieved all at once.
"H.. hello Ino, Sai…" sakura said bowing slightly feeling flushed all of a sudden.
"Sakura," Ino said a little surprised seeing her bowed to them, the pink haired girl stood up straight as if waiting for a chore. Ino just stood there for a moment watching the green eyed girl and she could see the uneasiness coming for the girl.
"You're hair…" she begun to say getting a small glare from said girl, "… is it real?"
Everyone just stood confused and surprised. It wasn't because the blonde asked a stupid question or if it was that she was asking about Sakura's hair, but it was the fact that the higher of high is talking to her!
Even though Sakura has been accepted into the clique, she still wasn't the top like the blonde was. With Ino actually talking to her and let alone knows her name made Sakura extremely happy, almost giddy.
"Y…Yeah…" Sakura managed to say nodding a little causing the blonde to giggle and receiving a small smile from Sai.
"Wow…" was all that the blonde said as Sai continued for her.
"That's pretty neat," Sai decided to say as the other man looked on with a frown on his face.
"I'm sorry, but I believe we should head to class…" the man stated looking straight at Ino almost telling her something telepathically.
"Time already…?" Ino pouted cutely receiving a blush from the man as well as Naruto who just stared at her the entire time.
"Okay," Ino sighed defeated as she turned to begin walking away, but stopped shortly.
"Aren't you three coming?" she asked looking over her shoulder to look at them. They gave each other a look before walking slowly behind the three.
"Sakura!" a voice rang out and she stopped to head over there all the while looking back hoping it wasn't offensive to anyone.
Ino slowed her step to match the two men behind her.
"Kiba, the party was fun," she said softly giving him a smile receiving a large grin and 'Thanks!' from him. She turned to the other side to meet blue eyes staring at her and she almost blushed, but was placed with a smile.
"Naruto," she said gaining his full attention, not like he wasn't giving it all already, "… I had fun."
She was smiling at him and he wanted to just grab her and hold onto her, but another part of him scolded him for thinking that way. He smiled back at her staring into her pale blue eyes.
"Yeah, me too…" he said softly smiling all the while. He couldn't pull his eyes away from her, from the mesmerizing skies in her eyes, from his reflection within those pools, from… but before he was able to further his thinking, he bumped into the man in front of him… hard.
"What the hell!" he screamed as he turned around, anger within his voice. Naruto stared at him, then Ino, then back at him to receive a scowl.
"Sorry man…" Naruto said a bit nervously and embarrassed for doing something so stupid in front of the girl he has feelings for.
"Sorry?!" the man screamed once again causing Naruto to look more lost and confused.
Ino was watching how his face became pink from embarrassment and now a beet red as he felt eyes staring at him from the commotion. She couldn't suppress the laughter any longer, but suppressed it enough to a giggle. Unfortunately, it caused Naruto to look down more embarrassed than before.
"Whatever!" the guy screamed out walking toward his classroom; Sai, on the other hand, stared confused as to why Ino laughed but decided not to push it. Someone called out his name and he bid farewell, but not before looking back at Ino once more noticing something different.
What could it be…? He asked himself as walked to the person who called out his name.
"Yo, you okay Naruto?" Kiba asked a little worried as to how red his friend's face was becoming.
"You sick or something? The flu?" he asked trying to figure something out staring at his friend.
"Naruto," Ino whispered as she bent close to his ears, "… you're cute when you blush."
And with that said she giggled once more before saying goodbye to Kiba and walked away. The brown haired male stared after the blonde beauty before he looked at his friend to see him staring at the girl as well with wide eyes. Kiba stole another glance at the blonde female before a sly smile appeared on his face.
"You like her," he said as he turned to see a much redder face on the blonde then before, (if it was possible). He couldn't help chuckling but a sting from the corner of his mind made him pause shortly. His smile became a frown and everything just turned upside down.
This is bad… he told himself to see Naruto's red face gone and a smile on his lips with dreamy eyes…
Oh God was this bad… Kiba slapped his forehead realizing that this was going to be one heck of a year… if they got through it, that is.
Everything is going to change… he only hoped it was for the better.
