Chapter 3 - Late night snack

Ino stood in front of the boy she had been thinking about today. He had no expression on his face, even though she had just bumped into him. "Sasuke kun, gomen ne." he gave her no expression and slowly pushed past her. She felt a cool breeze flow by them, she turned around to watch him leave. Thats all he seemed to be good for, leaving. He had left the village many times before though no one besides Naruto and Sakura had known why. He walked away with his hands in his pockets. He always had this cool look, he didn't care what was going on around him, he didn't seem to notice anything either.

'Tch...its late and shes out...baka...just like Sakura.' He kicked at rocks as he walked, he wasn't in the mood to talk, he wasn't in the mood to laugh, was he ever in the mood to laugh? Ino had wished he would of said something to her, something like "Its okay." she already felt like crap and bumping into him made her feel even more like crap. Like a lost little girl in a room full of strangers who just stared at her saying nothing, just pushing by her. She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath, she knew to expect the least from him but...

At a time like this, the way she was feeling, the hurt she had been through, she had only wished he cared to say something. She turned back around to the trail that lead back to the ramen stand, where she would find her way back to her house. As she walked she could hear Sasuke's foot steps as well as hers. She kinda smirked, 'Figures...when I'm feel like crap you'd be there to always make it better.' That was a lie, he never made anything better.

The only thing he ever did for her was ruin her friendship, and confuse her making her believe she loved him. 'Though...that face Sasuke,' she stopped, 'You had no expression...not even annoyed with the fact that I bumped into you. Whats wrong?'

Flash back

"With Sasuke? Whats she doing with him?"

"She said hes seemed lonely lately, you know her, she's been caring for him for a while now."

End flash back

'Thats right...' She turned around, Sasuke wasn't far away from where she stood. She forced a smile and pushed the thought of Shikamaru as far as she could in her mind, "Sasuke, wait!" she started to walk toward him picking up the pace. Sasuke rolled his eyes, 'What the hell does she want now...' He stopped in his tracks, he didn't turn around to face her. "What...do you want?" "Are..." she panted, she didn't know what to tell him, she didn't think about that before she began approached him, "You wanna grab a bite to eat?" "No...I've had a bite."

Before he could break away from her, she pulled him back, he turned to her raising his eye brow to find her smiling at him, "Ne Sasuke kun, a snake at least. Join me?" He rolled his eye, "Whatever..." she let go of him, walking side by side back to the ramen stand. Ino was a bit nervous, she hadn't really spent time with Sasuke. She didn't know a whole lot about him, but since he was feel lonely, like Sakura said she should at least try to help cheer him up. Even if it didn't work, at least she tried. Sasuke glanced at her, he couldn't believe he said, yes, no it was whatever, but the smile she gave him, 'It was fake...'

For once he actually gave into his good side, for once. As they reached the ramen stand it was late and no one seemed to be there besides a night shifter who handled the business after hours. They both sat down, Sasuke placed his elbows on the table and placed his head on top of his knuckles, Ino on the other hand crossed one leg over the other. She eyed Sasuke trying to find something to talk about. "So what will it be for you two. Want to try our lovers Ramen? You only get one plate to share!" Ino blushed and waved her hands in front of her face,

"Nooooo were not on a date. Were just friends." Sasuke managed to get in "Baka..." while she was explaining, "Oh? Is that so. Well what will it be then?" "Hm...maybe a water and a little bowl of ramen." 'I didn't get to eat thanks to that lovely chat Sakura.' Ino turned back to Sasuke, "What will it be Sasuke?" He sat there no emotion for a few minutes before saying anything, "Eh, Ramen." the man nodded and turned back around to cook it, "Mopper..." Sasuke's eye began to twitch. Ino couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

Sasuke turned to her glaring, she placed one hand over her mouth, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." she managed to get past her giggles, "Its just, well no ones ever called you something before, besides Naruto." He turned back around to face the inside of the ramen stand. "So..." Ino moved around in her chair, there was silence, not the good kind but the really weird kind that makes you want to jump up and leave, 'Say something Ino!' "So, what?" Ino blinked,"OH, so how have you been? I haven't seen you in a while." "Heh...you wouldn't know. You've been locked up in your room."

Ino stared at him, "How-How did you-" "Everyone knew...Its not like I wanted to hear but," he growled under his breath, "That Sakura, she just comes to my house and talks...even about things I don't care to hear." "I see..." 'I guess everyone knew...oh well thats just great.' She laid her head onto the table. Sasuke glanced at her, she pushed a smile onto her face, "Thanks for coming with me...even if I'm just a bother." Sasuke said nothing and stared straight, he seemed to be focusing on something but in reality thats how he always was.

The food had arrived and both began eating. Ino slowly ate it, since there was no conversation her mind was forcing her to think of him, him meaning Shikamaru, she tried to push it back, farther from her thoughts, but in a boring and non conversation situation like this, it just creped right back at her, eating away her other thoughts and taking over. Sasuke ate at normal pace, it had been a while since he had ate good ramen. He wasn't around Sakura and Naruto anymore, he thought they were a waste to be around and Sakura was always trying to grab at his thoughts.

"I've been fine." Ino snapped out of her thoughts, "Huh? Sorry I wasn't paying attention..." 'Ah crap...now hes going to think I don't care about anything he says...can this getting any worse!' "Heh, You asked, how I've been...I've been fine." a small smile crept onto Ino's lips, "Thats good...anything new?" He paused for a moment, he slowly lifted noddles in his mouth, "If you count Sakura. Coming over everyday to talk." Ino drank her water and went back to eating, "Besides that...nothing." "Oh. Well me,"

She knew he'd never ask about her so she had to take charge, "Its been a while since I've actually been out like this. I've been feeling sorry for myself, I'll admit it but, sometimes," she lifted her noddles in her mouth, Sasuke had lost interest two minutes into her conversation but still he had his ears open to her. "Sometimes, you just want to be alone. To feel sorry for yourself. No ones going to save you 24/7. You have to do it on your own." He slowly turned his head toward her as she said this. She nodded, "I've learned a lot being locked away in a shoe box."

"Shoe box...?" Sasuke was confused, he giggled again, 'Thats right...hes not used to joking around.' "I mean my room but its so small that it could actually be a shoe box." "Hm." She half smiled as she finished her ramen. "So..." "Hm?" she took a drink of her water and she handed the empty bowl to the working man, "What were you keeping your self from?" Ino shrugged, "Alot...more then I could handle...more then I could face." Sasuke now started to eat slower, "More then you could face. A battle?"

"Nm. Not like a fighting battle, more like," she paused for a moment trying to find the right words, "More like fighting a battle with yourself." "Heh, you could never do that." Ino sat up, "Thats where your wrong." he got a cocky smirk, "Me wrong...no." "No really, like I was fighting a battle with myself, over like emotions." Sasuke froze for a moment. 'Fighting a battle with emotions...thats...but she...only I...' Ino eyed him for a moment, "Sasuke? Sasuke? Are you okay?" he snapped a glare at her which made her fall back into her chair.

At that moment she felt small, really small but then he released his glare, his whole body became calm. "Thanks." he stood up and placed money on the counter, Ino began to search in her bag for money, "I got it." She looked up to see him leaving. "Sasuke, thank you." he smirked, and stuck his hands into his pocket walking home. 'heh, shes not as bad as I thought she was...a blond with no scenes of direction...I was wrong.' Ino sat there smiling, 'Did I just have a full conversation with the one and only Sasuke!?' The man working at the ramen stand saw the bright smile on her face.

"Sorry little Missy but Its late don't you have some where to be going?" Ino turned to the man with the same bright smile and looked at the clock. She face fall, "I'm...late...." "Excuse me?" "I'm LATE!" she ran toward her house. As soon as she got there she slammed open the door, and waited for someone to yell at her. She heard nothing, "Mom? Dad? Anyone home?" She sighed big, 'Thank god, I would of been in so much trouble!' She rushed up the stairs and pulled out her purple backpack, she stuffed it with clothes, hair stuff, and her tooth brush.

She looked at the clock, "Now I'm 1 hour and 15 minutes late. Isn't this great!' she turned around and knocked into a drink that was on her dresser. It spilt all over her shirt, "HOLY HELL! What next!" she pulled out her sweats and purple tang top, went into the bathroom and changed. She left her clothes on the floor, pushed the back pack onto her shoulder and rushed down the stairs grabbing a jacket on the way out. She shut the door and turned around shoving on her shoes more, "I-Ino..." Ino looked up to find Tenten sobbing. She stood up straight.

"Tenten...whats the-" "Neji! This is all his fault!" She fell to the ground.
