Chappie 13: "SAKURA, NARUTO IS KINDA CUTE!"





Ino fainted in the classroom. Iruka smiled and spoke again. "Ino is Juliet and Naruto is Romeo!"

"YES!" Naruto cheered. "I got the best part!" He looked to Ino. "Ino! Isn't it great!?"

Ino snapped at him. "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THIS PLAY IS ABOUT?"

"Yeah" Naruto chuckled.

Ino growled. "Do you know, what Romeo was to Juliet right?"

"Father and daughter right?"

Ino banged her head on the desk. "We have a long way to go..."

Sakura laughed. "Oh boy... what a mess...."



*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

A FEW DAYS LATER

"Romeo O Romeo, where for art thou Romeo?" Ino called in the park practicing with Naruto. Naruto didn't say anything. Ino looked at him. "Well? Where is Romeo?"

Naruto was concentrating on his script. He was flipping pages and suddenly stopped and gasped.

"What?" Ino asked evily.

"We have to kiss?" Naruto asked innocently.

"No fart! Tell me something I don't know!" Ino said rolling her script up and hit him with it.

"Ow... I didn't know. I don't want the part anymore!" Naruto huffed. "I'm so not kissing you!"

"You don't have to! We can use tape! And your not quiting because Iruka picked you. I don't think he's changing his mind..." Ino hissed.

Naruto sat on a rock. "This sucks... I don't like this play stuff. Its stupid."

"Well, I'm proud of my role." Ino said. "I just wish Romeo was Sasuke!"

"Hmph. Whats so great about him anyway?" Naruto asked rolling up his own script. Ino couldn't answer because she was fantasizing. "HELLO?!"

"WHAT!?" Ino snapped back.

"Nothing... I'm calling it quits for today. I'm hungry!" Naruto moaned.

"Your a pain." Ino noted sitting beside him. "Were not going to stop unless we finish this scene."

"Can't believe I'm in this... And with you. I wish it was Sakura or Hinata I was kissing!"

Ino burned. "Whats wrong with me?!"

"Well, your mean. And insensitive, not to mention a tomboy. Sakura and Hinata are way nicer than you are. They have the looks too."

Ino steamed off. She pushed her right leg up to her chin and wrapped her arms around it. "I'm not pretty? I'm not nice?"

"Yep." Naruto stated. Naruto being clueless, doesn't know she's being serious. If he knew she was, Naruto wouldn't say such things.

"I see. So, You don't want to kiss me?" Ino asked gloomily. "Even though the play is just fake?"

"Not for the world." Naruto chuckled.

'He's laughing... Whats so special about Sakura and Hinata? I'm suppose to be the cute one. Naruto doesn't even want to kiss me. I guess, it was all my imagination that everyone was so nice to me. I bet it was out of sympathy.' Ino thought. 'What about Shikamaru? He must think I'm a total dork. Its not fair. How come no one told me?'

"Ino?" Naruto asked seeing Ino shake. "Ino are you crying?"

"No... I have to go. I guess I'll see you around...."

"Hey but we have that last scene to do! The play is a week away!"

Ino said nothing. She just kept walking.

Naruto gulped. "Was it something I said?"



*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



Neji and Sakura were studying together again. They sat in Neji's room at a table. Sakura wrote as neat as she could, she felt nervous being with him after the Itachi incedent. It hasn't been right. Neji was back to his calm collective self. As if they had first met. There was a long long silence before Sakura opened her mouth. "Neji I-"

Neji looked up. "What?"

All of a sudden one of the guards yelled. "LADY HINATA YOU HAVE A VISITOR!"

Neji and Sakura got up to peer out the window. They squinted to see a blonde boy. "Naruto?" Sakura questioned.

They both made their way down the stairs. By the time they got there Hinata was talking to Naruto.

"I think I hurt her feelings. I didn't know she was being serious!" Naruto whined.

Hinata made a frown. "Naruto how could you? No girl wouldn't be serious about that!"

"I didn't know!"

Sakura approched the two. "Whats wrong you guys?" Neji said nothing, but he still wanted to know.

Hinata turned to Sakura. "Oh, Sakura. Well, Naruto umm... he..."

"I'll tell it." Naruto said. "I told Ino that she was mean, and unkissable, amoung other words that I don't remember..."

Sakura went upside Naruto's head. "You idiot!"

"Owchie!"

"How could you! She' probably crying her eyes out now!" Sakura yelled. (O.O She's maaaaad)

"I didn't know she was being serious! And I'm hungry!"

"Enough about food! You go to her and apologize!" Hinata urged.

"Okay... Okay... What do I say?" Naruto asked.

"I think its best to let her know what you think." Hinata replied.

"Alright..."



*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Ino sat in her room beside her bed. She was done crying and her eyes were sore, dry and red. She looked through some picture of when she was in middle school. There was one she stared at for a few minutes. It was her and Sakura in there middle school uniform. Sakura was clinging onto Ino's arm. It was like she was a little sister. Both girls in the picture were smiling. 'I wonder, if she was pretending to be my friend as well?' Putting the picture down, she bit on on of her well manacured nails.

Meanwhile, Naruto was sneaking up to Ino's window with a latter. "Good thing I found this latter in her garage!" (going throuhg people's garage!) Naruto climbed the steps to Ino's window. He peered in but he didn't see anyone. Ino was behind the bed sitting. So he couldn't really see her.

Naruto had no other choice. "OH JULIET! WHY ART THOU SO FAIR?!"

"What the hell?" Ino jumped up and looked out the window. "NARUTO!" She charged at the window opening it.

"Uh oh.... Plan B! Run!" Naruto mumbled. The latter tipped. "Double uh oh...."

"Naruto!" Ino yelled seeing that the latter was about to fall. She held out her hand, Naruto quickly took it, but it was too late. They both fell out the window.

Ino was heading straight for the latter on the ground. (hitting a latter from the second floor would really hurt...ow)

Naruto flipped them and he took the fall. Naruto landed on the latter.

"Naruto? Naruto!?" Ino called to the unconcious boy. "Are you okay?! Where does it hurt? Speak to me!"

Naruto woke a few seconds later. He half opened his eyes. "Uh?"

"Why?" Ino tilted her head. "Why did you do that!? You dummy!"

Naruto coughed to get his breathing going again. "Ouch that hurt!" He said breathlessly. "I lost my breath at one point!" He laughed.

Ino teared up. "Your an idiot to do that! I thought you didn't like me! Why did you do that!?"

"I don't hate you Ino." Naruto admitted. "I was playing with you at the time. I didn't know you were being serious!"

"Huh?"

"You a very nice girl. Except when you turn violent... But in any case your cute, and, if I didn't have a girlfriend, and if you'd let me..." Naruto blushed. He couldn't believe he was saying this. "I'd love to kiss you."

"Don't be.... Don't be nice to me!" Ino cried hugging Naruto.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



"So, how'd it go with Naruto?" Sakura asked on 3-way with Ino and Hinata.

Ino giggled into the phone. "It went well. He told me, that he as just kidding... And somehow... I believe him."

Sakura smiled. "You almost sound like Hinata!"

"What?" Hinata asked hearing her name. "She nothing like me! Ino is much more cuter!"

"Noway Hinata. Your way luckier than I. You have Naruto."

"So you like him too?" Hinata asked frightened.

"Hey pinkie!" Ino yelled in the phone.

"Huh?" Sakura knew Ino was refering to her. (see color picture of Sakura :P)

"Sakura, Naruto is kinda cute!" Ino said.

"NO!" Hinata screeched. Record high for her throat.

"Hey now! Don't get all bent out of shape! I was just kidding!" Ino laughed.

"No your not!" Hinata sqeaked.

"Guys..."
