"Why not?!" questioned Ino's Kaa-san. Ino and Shikamaru had made it clear they didn't want to get married, despite the fact that they are always together and they make it seem like they can't live without each other, so why?

"Because…we're not in love" said Ino and Shika at the same time.

"Not in love?!" questioned Ino's Tou-san.

"Yes." Said Ino in a serious voice.

"But…Shika are you sure you don't want to marry our daughter?" asked Ino's mother with every hope she had.

"Mom!" Yelled Ino.

"Ok, ok we get it we won't interfere but I have a question." Started Ino's father, "When do you exactly plan on getting married at all…I mean how are you so sure you two aren't meant for each other."

"Ahem…I think we have a good explanation to that, we're in no hurry when we need to find someone we will." Said Ino in a matter of fact voice.

"And we will get married to someone that we like…in that kind of way." Said Shikamaru as he smirked.

"Troublesome…I wonder why her parents are so keen on getting us married" Thought Shikamaru.

"Hm…but do you think that person will have a problem with this kind of friend-ship?" asked Ino's mother.

Both Ino and Shika shrugged. They didn't love each other they merely liked each other there was a difference, they hung out together and did things together because they liked each others company but they were far from being in love with each other.

2:00. pm.

Shika, Ino, Sakura, Lee, Neji and Ten ten were all sitting by the shore of Kawaii beach talking about the incident that had occurred earlier that day.

"Neji tell me, if you were ever in love with Ino would you have a problem with our friend-ship?" asked Shikamaru.

Neji hesitated for a bit but then answered. "Well the truth is…if I was ever in love with Ino…I would never have told you because…well…I thought you two were you know…"

"Oh dear lord! It's true fluffy we're never going to find anyone in life!" said Ino as she buried her face in Shikamaru's chest. It was odd but Ino's head had always found the perfect spot in Shika's chest, for he was the one who had always been with her when he was down, when she was angry happy you name it he was ALWAYS there for her.

"It's ok Ino…don't worry we'll find him…where ever he's hiding!" Said Shika as he rapped his arms around Ino's thin waist.

Ino quickly get out of his grasp. "Where he's hiding?" "Fluffy…are you looking for a guy?" asked Ino as her eyes widened.

"Of course…I am …but for you silly." Said Shikamaru as he rubbed his nose gently against hers, which caused her to giggle.

"Hey that's right!" yelled Lee…a little too loud. "It's the perfect plan why don't you two find each other the perfect person…you guys know each other so well."

Sakura grabbed the sides of Lee's cheeks and gave him a peck on them. "Oh my god Lee! You are so smart."

Lee fondly smiled to himself clearly pleased of his comment.

"He's right guys…think about it if you guys find each other the perfect someone and you support their love who would have a problem with your close friend-ship?!" Said Sakura in an oh so obvious tone.

Shika and Ino both stared at each other and then smiled at each other.

"Guys…that's brilliant!" said Ino with a wide smile across her face. "Fluffy sit!" Ino put force on Shika's shoulders causing him to sit down on the rock. "Listen…I'll find you a stupid silly romantic girl ok, and you find me a tough guy! Someone who can stick up for me and you know…if they ever misbehaved with me he would break his teeth and place them in his hand." Ino stared smiling at Shikamaru waiting for his answer. Sakura had wondered why she wanted a tough guy…but then she realized as visions of a few months ago flashes in her mind.

Flash back.

A blonde girl and a boy with chestnut brown hair were rounding off on each other the blonde yelled furiously at the hazel eyed boy.

"What the fuck did you say!?" yelled the blonde.

"How dare you! You're the coward you son of a bitch! So is your whole fucking family! Go die in a cave somewhere you ass whole!" Yelled the blonde now panting.

Suddenly two tanned arms grabbed the back of the blonde girl's waist.

"Ino…calm down ok...he's not worth your time." Said Shikamaru as he tried to get the young blonde calm.

"No…I will not…I'll teach him a lesson to call someone a coward." Yelled Ino as she struggled to get out of the boy's grasp.

"What… are you crazy Kiba?! You called Ino a coward?!" questioned Shikamaru clearly shocked at Kiba's daring's. It was true…though Shika was known as a calm quiet and peaceful person…Ino was quite the opposite she was dangerous…also knows as a cat… she wouldn't back down on any chance to show someone she's better.

"Not her…I called you a coward!" Yelled Kiba as he clutched to his nose, before Ino had started yelling she had punched his nose very hard.

"Me?" Shikamaru turned to Ino and rolled his eyes," If he was making fun of me why'd you get involved Ino…come on let's go." Said Shika as he started to drag his blonde friend.

"Let me go! I'm going to teach this bastard a lesson!" Yelled Ino frantically.

"Eh…keep your cat collared Nara or one day she's going to get under my car." Said Kiba as he smirked.

"The same place that our mom picked you up from!" Yelled Ino over Shika's shoulder.

"That's it! Now If she talks I'm going to knock you out Nara!" yelled Kiba over the noise of the crowd that was now gathering around them.

"What?" Said Shika as he gave up on trying to control Ino.

"What do you think huh? He's afraid of you…Hell no! Come one Shika you can beat him!" Said Ino while pushing Shika towards Kiba.

"Come then bastard!" Said Kiba as he raised his fists.

"Well…I didn't want to fight but you leave me no choice." Said Shikamaru as he turned to face Kiba.

"Don't worry I won't leave anything…I'll send you home with your body parts in your hand." Said Kiba.

Kiba pulled his arm back to pull up a punch but Shika bent down to pretend that he was stretching.

"Shika! Shika! Shika!" Yelled Ino in encouragement and soon the crowd had also chimed in.

Shika started this time he leaned in to punch Kiba but then stopped immediately. The crowd quieted down puzzled over why Shika had stopped.

"Hm…nice try Kiba…but if I get into a fight with you I could get suspended after all, your father is one of the college trusties." Said Shika.

"What?!" said a bewildered Kiba.

Ino death glared Shika but he ignored it. "That's right if I beat the shit out of you I would get suspended."

"Yea, right buddy I'm going to be the one beating you up." Retorted Kiba.

"Mhm…sure and nothing will happen to you right?" said Shika in a sarcastic tone.

"Oh come on…my father is like Hitler… if he finds out I fought someone he'll torture me to death." Replied Kiba with a snort.

"What do you mean?" Said Shika in a friendlier voice.

"First he'll take away my allowance; the old guy always does this." Said Kiba as he lowered his fists.

"No way guy…but then how do you eat in canteens?" asked Shika now placing his arm around Kiba's shoulder in an even friendlier way.

"Hm…you see I've fed a lot of people like this Shino, and so they just return the favor." Said Kiba as he nodded towards a raven haired boy with black glasses.

"Oh that's so sweet of you guys…your so lucky to have such good friends." Said Shika. He knew Ino was shooting death glares at him behind his back but he didn't care at the moment, his plan at the moment is to make his way out of this mess.

"Yea, of course." Said Kiba.

"So Kiba…are we still in the fight?" Questioned Shikamaru in a calm town.

"Of course not…is there a gang war in college…of course not." Said Kiba as he clapped his hand onto Shika's back.

"Well for our friend-ship you'll treat me to a coke no?" asked Shika in a friendly voice.

"Sure." Said Kiba as he handed Shika a coke bottle.

After that Shika merely left a confused Kiba behind to do nothing but stare at the other coke bottle as his mind took in what had just took place, as Shika walked away.

Out side the school.

Hahaha!! "That was too funny" said Lee as he high fived Shika for his behavior with Kiba inside the school.

"You should have seen his he was al dumbfounded staring at his drink…and no one had the guts to laugh!" Said Lee while he panted for air…for he was laughing way too hard.

"Coward." Said Ino in a serious voice as she turned away from the school to face Shika.

"It's nothing about being a coward Ino…you know I don't like to fight." Retorted Shika.

"Even if it was to save a friend?" question Ino.

"Kiba…is not my friend…and at that moment it was much more important to save him from you." Said Shika as he started to laugh.

"What ever I still say you're a coward." Retorted Ino.

"Look guys…I'm not going to fight anyone, I promised my mother and you guys can call me what ever you like even a coward but it won't make a difference to me." Said Shika as he closed his eyes.

"Not even a difference if it was me?" asked Ino.

"Not even if it was you." Said Shika…and at that very moment Ino had run off…she couldn't believe her ears Shikamaru Nara…was in fact a weak person.

Ino, Kiba and Shika were all friends again of course but Ino would never forget the day Shika was known as a coward.

End of flash back.

Sakura smiled to herself as she slowly focused on her friends again.

"Brilliant then we shall search tonight, at the down town disco…there's bound to be people like us there." Said Shikamaru clearly satisfied by his idea.

"Are you in guys?" asked Ino.

"Of course it's time we found someone too!" yelled Lee hyperly.

"And who knows maybe we'll all find someone special like Neji and Ten ten." Said Sakura. And with that comment Neji wrapped his arms around Ten ten's waist causing her to blush.
