And She will have doubts

It's not always rainbows and butterflies

It's compromise that moves us along

Shikamaru woke up with the sun hitting him in the eyes and a soft breeze blowing some strands of his hair. Funny, he didn't remembered leaving the window opened...

It was too troublesome to get up and close it so insted he tried to get back to sleep since it was probabily too early.

But something was keeping him from falling asleep. Something soft was tickling his chest. He could open his eyes and see what it was but that was just too troublesome... so he tried to ignore it. And that was hard...

It was bugging him to death! Plus, something hot was on his chest too. It almost seemed as tough someone was breathing into it. But that was impossible, right?

He shifted back slowly but there was something heavy on his chest that kept him from moving. That was it... it was time to open his eyes!

He opened them slowly, very slowly and they widened at the sight before them! He blushed a bit and closed is eyes tightly.

"How troublesome..."

He opened his eyes again. It wasn't a dream, Ino was lying with him in bed. Her head was resting in his chest and she was breathing slowly, meaning she was still sleeping peacfully.

He had his arms wraped up around her and, for the first time, he realised how small and fragile she was... and how perfectly her body fited his...

Flashback

"You're all wet Ino... You're going to get a cold..."

Shikamaru went into his closet and grabed one of his old shorts and a t-shirt. He sent Ino into the bathroom and waited for her to come out.

Five minutes passed. The door opened slowly and she came out of the bathroom. Her hair was down, still wet and dripping slightly. The t-shirt kept falling from her shoulder, leaving it in the open, now matter how hard she tried to pull it up.

The t shirt reached out to her knees so he couldn't really see the shorts. She looked absolutly adorable... she had this sweet look on her face, like an abandoned child.

All he wanted to do was wrap her up in his strong arms and kiss her deeply. But he resisted the urge to do so. He would probabily be bitch slapped and that was definitly troublesome!

Sudenly, and without warning, she ran up to him and hugged him. He really didn't knew what to do, so he hugged her back... it sure felt nice...

End of Flashback

My heart is full and my door's always open

You can come anytime you want

Shikamaru blushed slightly. He liked having her in his arms... in his bed... it felt so... right!

He was staring deeply at her and failed to notice his door being opened. Shikato stood there, at the door, staring at his son and his best friend's daughter, in the same bed! So he did what a normal father would do, leave! Right...?

Shikato smiled and leaned at the door.

"You cought a good one Shika. Hope you keep her tough..." He smirked.

Shikato was NOT a normal father.

Shikamaru blushed deeply and tried to explain himself, but Shikato lughed loudly and left.

To make things worst, Ino was awakened by Shikato's laugh. She stirred a bit and yawned. She was laying on something soft and warm, and it felt really nice. She smiled a bit, without opening her eyes, and hugged whatever she was laying on (Shikamaru! Lol) tight.

Shika was blushing harder now. Ino couldn't open her eyes! It would be Hell! She would bitch slap him to death! But what could he do? Nothing... so that's what he did. He just stood there, breathing to a minimum and not moving at all. Eventualy she would fall asleep and he could crawl out of his bed.

Five minutes passed but she was still awake. How could he tell you ask? Well... it was by her breathing. It wasn't slow and steady as before. Oh man... he had to scratch his back! But he couldn't! Man... this was a pain!

Sudenly, the door opened and Shikato came in once again!

"Just wondering if you guys wanted breakfast on bed?" He grinned. "Oh hey Ino! You're awake hun? Want some breakfast?"

Ino just stood there. Sitting in Shikamaru's bed, where she was laying, on top of him, and stared at Shikato.

Shikamaru blushed and yelled. "Dad!"

Shikato raised his hand. "Gomen, gomen! I'll leave you too lovebirds alone."

Ino was still staring at the door. Mouth slightly opened. Shikamaru waved his hand in front of her face but she didn't move.

"Oi... In-"

"SHIKAMARU!"

She came out of her trance and was blushing furiosly.

"What the hell happened? Why am I in bed with you? And you're shirtless! And I'm with your clothes! Kami-Sama! What have we done?"

Shikamaru scratched the back of his head.

"Nothing happened Ino. We just.. uh... fell asleep together..."

Ino just opened her mouth. And then closed it. And then opened it again, but no word was coming out of it. She finaly gave up and started to recall last night.

Oh yeah... that was it. The dream...

She became more serious.

"Ino, are you okay?"

She looked back at him and smiled brightly. "I'm fine Shikamaru!"

She then got up, grabed her clothes, witch were dry by now, and went to the bathroom to dress herself. Shikamaru did the same, but in his room.

Wen she got out, she didn't knew how to react with Shikamaru. It was all to strange...

"So..."

"Um..."

"Well... I... think I'll go home..."

Shikamaru put his hands in his pockets.

"Okay. Meet you in the afternoon for training?"

"Sure... bye then!"

She turned and started walking to the door.

"Wait!"

She stoped and looked at him. "what?"

He scrached his head and looked at the floor.

"Hum... Ino... just... uh... well..." He blushed a bit. Then he raised his head and met Ino's blue eyes. "Just come to me whenever you need to, alright? I already told you, I'll be here for you... whenever you need it."

Then he got closer to her and was about to kiss her on the cheek, but she turned her face and their lips met. It was a small kiss, but it meant a lot to them... partialy beacause it was their first.

When they parted they felt very awkward. They blushed a bit and then Ino left with a quick and shy goodbye.

She went down the stairs and then she passed the kitchen where the Naras where having breakfast.

Shikamaru's mother looked at a running Ino and then at a grinning Shikato.

"Wasn't that Yamanaka Ino?"

"Yup!"

"But I didn't saw her enter! And it's still to early..."

Shikato smirked. "Yup!"

Shikamaru's mother's mouth opened and so did her eyes while realisation hit her.

"Our little baby boy is having sex!"

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

It was lunch time. Ino didn't felt like being home so she told her parents she was having lunch with Sakura. Oh and what luck, here she came.

Ino didn't saw her because she was too wrapped up in her own toughts, toughts about what she felt when he kissed her...

"Oi, Ino!"

Toughts about how she fell asleep in his strong arms and bare chest...

"Ino Pig!"

Toughts about how she felt when she tought him to be dead, even if it was just a dream...

"Kuso! Hey Ino you fat and ugly girl!"

"Nani?"

Ino shot her best friend/rival a glare.

"Oh, now you heard me!"

Sakura crossed her arms and Ino placed her hands on her hips.

"What do you want forehead girl?"

"Why Ino, don'r need to be so agressive! I was just going to your house to invite you to have some lunch."

"Oh... ok, come on!"

The two kunoishis walked to the nearest restaurant and sat down.

"So, Ino... you seemed to be in deep tought when I found you. What were you thinking about?"

Ino blushed a little while remebering her kiss with Shikamaru.

"Well... nothing really..." Ino looked dow at her plate and started picking her food with the chopsticks.

"Come on Ino... you know you can tell me!"

"Well..."

/-\

Meanwhile, on the other side of Konoha, Shikamaru and Chouji were watching clouds. I mean, Shikamaru was watching the clouds, Chouji was eating chips!

"I'm bored Shikamaru... and hungry!"

Shikamaru got up.

"Come on Chouji. I'll treat you some Ramen."

Chouji got up and followed him. They seated at the Ramen stand (sorry can't remember the name:x) and Shikamaru ordered some Ramen for Chouji.

"So... what do you want to talk about?" asked Chouji while he ate his Ramen.

"Can't a guy buy you some Ramen from time to time?"

Chouji burped loudly and looked at his friend. "No... not unless you want to get into my pants! But I guess that's not the case so... Is it Ino?"

Shikamaru sighed. His friend always saw right trough him.

"Isn't it always...?"

/-\

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay a while

"He what?"

Sakura was surprised! Shikamaru had done something! With a girl! Besides fighting! That was a first!

"What you heard Sakura... he kissed me... on the lips..."

Sakura was very exited with the news.

"Soooooo! Go on! Did you like it? How did you feel?"

Ino blushed a bit.

"Well... yeah I liked it... it felt... so right!"

Sakura smiled and then put her hand under her chin. She had a pensive look on her face now.

"Hmm... Ino and Shikamaru... how the hell didn't I tought of that before! It's so obvious! It's like, you were made for each other or something!"

"Oh stop that Sakura..."

"It's true!"

Ino blushed. Then she looked at the watch hanging on the wall.

"Kuso! I'm late for training! See ya Sakura! Thanks for the talk!"

Ino left her friend some coins for the lunch and left in a hurry.

/-\

"Finally Shika!"

"What finally?"

Shikamaru looked annoyed.

"Finally you realised how much you liked her! That only took you what... 12, 13 years?"

Shikamaru sighed. Chouji was probabily right... he always was! Heck that's why Shikamaru always came to him for advice.

"Have you told her yet?"

"Told her what?"

"You're kind of dumb today aren't you?"

Shika frowned at the insult.

"I meant, have you told her that you like her in that way...?"

Silence...

"No..."

"That what the hell are you waiting for?"

"We're late!"

Chouji looked at his friend who wasn't making any sense.

"What...?"

"We're late for training! Asuma will kill us!"

Both of them got up and left running to the training grounds. There was nobody there...

"Damn it... we're too late..."

Shikamaru shoved his hands in is pockets. "That's troublesome..."

Then Ino arrived. Looking breathless and a little flushed from running.

"Did... huff Asuma huff Sensei huff left?"

Shikamaru stared at Ino. She looked so cute like that. All worked up from running... Chouji noticed his friend looking at Ino and smiled.

"Yeah he probabily did. I'll be leaving too... bye guys!"

Chouji then left, leaving them behind, but not without muttering a "Tell her..." to Shikamaru.

Then things got weird... again...they didn't knew what to say or how to act. It was getting on their nerves actualy!

"Um... so... Ino..."

"Yeah...?"

He really dind't knew what to say...

"You didn't got a cold did you? I mean, for being all wet and everything.."

Just as soon as those words came out of his mouth, he wanted to shove them back in! What a stupid thing to say! He had an IQ of 200 and he couldn't think of a better thing to say...

She chuckled a bit at his useless atempt to make a conversation.

"No I didn't... I'm fine. Thanks to you and your clothes!"

She smiled. He smiled. And then there was an awkward silence again...

And she will be loved

And she will be loved
