I am so so so so so so so so so so sorry I haven't been able to upload this story. I haven't had any ideas how to go on in this story but now I do :) Oh and I put up something on Protecting The Innocent but I will put it up in here as well just in case you don't read that story. My friend is writing a story called Love's Art, please check it out. It's really good and she's a beginner and she would really need and like the support. She has low self-esteem and needs the reviews to know that her writing is doing good. But again I am so sorry for not uploading but here I am :)

Summary: Since a year ago, she has been blind. She can't see anything, but she could hear and feel. She has only one friend who didn't judge her by her blindness. She thought she would never get a boyfriend because she was blind. That was, until she met him, Sasuke Uchiha.

Pairings: Mostly SasuSaku, NaruIno, KibaHina, NejiTen, and ShikaTema

Blindness

Chapter 14

As Shikamaru and Sakura were walking towards the school, Hinata and the others were running to them. Shikamaru saw worried looks on almost of them, but mostly on Hinata's since she was the most sincere one. Sasuke was also with them and as he was walking towards them, he went to stand next to Sakura with his sister.

"Have you guys seen Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked, with a worried expression on her face. Sakura couldn't see her face but she could tell by the tone of her voice that she was worried.

"Why? Has something happened to Naruto?" Sakura asked, suddenly becoming worried as well.

"He's probably skipping. As usual. The dobe hates school." Sasuke said nonchalantly with his hands in his pockets.

"But I haven't seen him for two days! In and out of school!" TenTen butted in. "I haven't even seen him at Ichiraku's! That's called for a big problem!" She cried out.

Sasuke and Mikana sighed simultaneously. "You guys are worrying too much." Mikana said. "Naruto runs around a lot. It's his thing. He's an adventurer. He likes to see new things. You probably haven't seen him in Ichiraku because he probably ordered in. His lazy ass does that sometimes when he doesn't feel like going out."

"Fine then. Have you guys seen him?" Kiba asked.

"Yeah. You're his best friend, Sasuke-kun, right? Has he called you?" Sakura asked.

"No, and I'm glad."

"And you're not worried?"

"No."

"Why?"

"'Cause that means he actually has a life besides bothering me. Maybe he found someone else to bother besides me."

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura turned to where she heard his voice and she heard that he was right next to her so she stepped on his shoe and was pleased to hear his "Ow!". "How could you say that? He's your best friend! He hasn't called you for two days!"

"I'll get worried if he hasn't called me for two weeks... maybe one."

"If he hasn't called for Sasuke for one week, then something's up, but you don't have to worry about Naruto. He's probably just skipping. Don't worry, we know him."

"Okay. If you say so." They all said simultaneously.

NARUTO & INO LAST NIGHT

"He...what?" Naruto looked at her shocked. The words processed in his mind but he just couldn't believe it.

"He raped me Naruto! Don't make me repeat it!" She cried, looking up at him with mascara falling down her face.

Naruto looked down at his lap where his hands where and saw them shaking and saw them turning into fists and without thinking, he slammed his fists into the glove compartment real hard that it made Ino jump and he mumbled something. "Huh?" Ino sniffled.

"What did he say?" he asked, a little louder looking down.

This time, Ino looked down, looking away from him. She's not telling him. She told him too much already. What he said was...

"What did he say, Ino!?" Ino's eyes widened. No -chan? Oh my god, he's so serious. Ino bit her lip. "He said that he's back in town and he's ready for round three... and once he said he already called my dad to tell him that he's in town and to set up a family dinner for 3 days from today and after the dinner that I better be ready or else." Once she was done, she started crying.

"Round three!?" Naruto yelled, his fists tightened even more as he turned his head to her.

"He did it twice before he left.. I couldn't do anything. I'm so weak and I can't do anything, now."

"Yes. Yea you can."

"No, no I can't." She shook her head.

"Yea you can't. Take me to this dinner."

"Wha-at?" She hiccuped, turning to him.

"Just say I'm your boyfriend." He looked to her and gave her a small smile.

"But...but that'll get him more mad!" She yelled. "Naruto, do you know what you're getting yourself into!? This is my mess! You don't have to-"

"I want to." He tightened his fists. "I can't just sit back and know that 3 days from now my friend is gonna get raped. I can't."

"So you're best solution is to pose as my 'boyfriend'?! Do you know how stupid that sounds? How about everyone else's reaction? I don't want them to know about this!" She cried.

"Well then," He turned to her. "Ino-chan, I have fallen for you after a few weeks." He smiled his foxy grin.

Ino's cheeks turned red and she turned her head away, biting her lip.

"If we're gonna make this believable, I have to introduce you to my parents." Naruto thought.

"This is moving too fast!" Ino cried, blushing even more.

"It's 3 days from now, Ino-chan. We have to move fast. Oh, and also," He grabbed Ino by her cheeks and kissed her, "Mmmph," Ino's eyes were wide open at the sudden kiss. She stared at Naruto's closed ones but then she eased into it slowly and closed hers and rested her hand on Naruto's arm. Damn, he's flexed. Naruto pulled away. "Our first kiss was in the car." Naruto grinned.

Ino's eyes was still closed and one hand was on her heart while the other was on her cheek as she nodded.

"Now, since it's late and you're gonna meet my parents you're probably gonna have to stay the night and we're probably gonna have to ditch school tomorrow."

"What?!"

"Hehe." Naruto chuckled. "I don't mind the last part. My parents are probably gonna be so happy meeting you that when I asked them if we can ditch school tomorrow they'll say yes, hehe."

"Well, what are we gonna do tomorrow and the next day?" Ino asked.

"Practice, I guess." Naruto shrugged.

"Practice?"

"Being boyfriend and girlfriend. I mean, if you want your cousin to believe that I am your 'boyfriend' we have to make it look believable. You have to hold my hand and stuff, cuddle and do all the stuff that girls like to do. Do the stuff that Hinata does to Kiba, I guess." He shrugged again. "Oh and we're also gonna have to kiss again if he wants to make us to prove it because anyone can do that ya know?"

Ino blushed at the kissing part. "You're right. I feel more comfortable doing this kind of stuff at your house, if you don't mind. If I go back to my house, Deidara might already be there."

Naruto grinned. "No problem. Just follow me to my house. I don't mind ditching school for 3 days."

Ino sighed. "Naruto, you really don't have to do this. But, thank you." She leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Naruto scratched his cheek in embarrassment. "Hehe, no problem." He got out of the car and went to his and Ino followed him to his house.

I know this chapter was more NaruIno but since everyone was wondering about Ino and Naruto I just wanted to show what happened that night. And yes, I will show the dinner sometime during the chapters. The next chapter will be SasuSaku, NaruIno and mixed couples. I say NaruIno because I will show them practicing. I hoped you liked this chapter and again I'm sorry for not showing too much SasuSaku.
