116 reviews? 116?!?! You people must be kidding me! ;; I need a moment. A moment later I'm sooo happy! Anyway, First off! Sakura's last name is Haruno not Maruku. Ok, here's what happened with that...My friend and I were reading this other fanfic that had Maruku as a cousin or something and then I was typing way to fast and then I put a note in for myself to change it but I never did and then I posted it and then I never got around to changing it because I didn't want to look like a jerk with re-posting a chapter just to change a name so my story would be on top again because there are some people that get really mad if you do that and then 23 people reviewed to just tell me its not Maruku but Haruno!!!!!! Oo BREATHS

I've been having all these hard core tests the least few weeks Passed them too! so that's why no update. But for some reason I have been receiving a bunch of reviews the last three days and it's the weekend for me right now, so here we are! New chapter and me not being lazy. I've also read all the chapters of Naruto at so know I know the whole freakin' story so far and I know Shika's family much better. Here we go!

Warning!! Yes, that's right fans! A warning label. And we all know that a warning label is meant as a warning for those with pure minds and clean eyes. There will be ... 'stuff' in the naughty way in this chapter...of Ino...and her....goodies. Cough

"And then I just kinda...brought him lunch. And then he kinda...ate it."

"You should wright a book Ino! That's sooo romantic. I wish Sasuke would buy flowers for me. I tried to make him lunch but he just gives it to Naruto..."

"Girly giggle Well Forehead, the Uchiha is all yours."

"Your sooo lucky! But how's he doing after losing to Chouji?"

"I'm sure that hes pride was hurt a bit. He didn't look me in the eye as Azuma chased him off."

"Another girly giggle Men."

"I know but he's so...cute. Neh?"

"Well he's not the apple of my eye but he suits you."

"How so?"

"Well...you're a pushy pig and he's a lazy no good-nic. You can whip him into shape or something."

Ino actually laughed at that.

"Yeah, you wish. Hey. You know what? You and Saskue should hurry up and start dating so we can have ourselves a double date."

Sakura got this great little bubble in her head with a sour looking Shikamaru and Saskue. Shika would be glaring and having a big red poster stapled to Ino with the marks of 'MY women' on it and Saskue having an offended look that the Nino boy would dare suggest that he was even slightly interested in Ino. But it popped after a few seconds though.

"Gah! Your sooo lucky. I hate you."

"I know. Nah nah."

"Blah. I gotta go! I need to go clean my room. See ya tomorrow."

"Yeah, see you later."

The phone call ended with a click but Ino dangled the phone in her hand for a bit. She couldn't remember the last time she talked to Sakura like that. Oh well. Ino placed the phone back on the hook and went to go stand outside her door. She would go find her father and hang out with him. Nothing else to do.

Shikamaru wasn't even huffing all that much when he reached his third lap around the city. He was tired as hell, of course, he was just taught not to really show it. Azuma had to laugh as Shika placed his hands on his knees and gave out a quick breath.

"Nice job Shikamaru! Next time keep your eyes on Chouji and not Kirinishom-senshi."

"Me? Or you?"

Azuma glared as he blew out smoke.

"Don't make me make you run another three laps boy."

Shika smirked but rolled his eyes too.

"Ok your done. Go home and learn to pay attention."

The ponytailed boy nodded quickly and went to go find his dad. No point of going home where his mother would scorn him for losing because he didn't pay attention. His mother was such a strict women when she wanted to be. Shikamaru snorted and shoved his hands in his pant pockets and went to find his father that would be at the Guni Shu with the rest of his stupid friends.

Shika started to kick small rocks around as he walked.

'Gah, how could I fall in front of Ino like that. Geez what a bother. Rotten Chouji. Stupid Kiba.'

He sighed and put his hands behind his head as he walked thinking about Go. And Ino. And if Ino even played Go.

'Hey, that's not a bad idea. I could ask her if she plays.'

Shika had to smile to himself. He was so smart.

Ino popped her head into the small bar to see, as always, the three grown men laughing at nothing and ordering food that they weren't even eating. Ino had to roll her eyes and then blow her hair stand a bit. The bartender that was cleaning a glass looked up at his new costumer.

"Ino-san. Good evening. How ya' doing?"

The bartender knew Ino ever since she was a toddler and drank chocolate malts while she sat on top of the bar when her father would take her. Ino dipped her head down.

"Hello Mr. Kuniz. I'm fine. How's the hand?"

The old bartender's hand was starting to cramp on him.

"I'll live. He's over there."

Mr. Kuniz tilted his head behind him to show that, that was were her father was sitting. Not that they were hard to miss. The hooping and hollering and laughing and joke telling could be heard a block away. None of the other costumers minded though. They all heard Shikato's 'What happens when you cross a ninja and a chicken' joke at least a million times already so they just tuned the grown men out.

"Hey Otousan."

Inoshi looked from his group and looked down at his daughter. Being a but tipsy, Inoshi grabbed Ino and placed her in his lap.

"Ino! Have you grown since last I saw you?"

"No Mr. Akimichi I haven't. You saw me this morning."

The large man laughed and drank more sake. Now the funny thing was, Shikato, Inoshi and Choumaru were not alcoholics. First off, if Inoshi came home drunk off his gourd then Ino's mother would kick him out of the house so fast, Kakashi wouldn't be able to see it. Same with the other two. They were all respected ninja's and would not become booze hounds. And two, they worked hard so they drank afterwards.

"Where's your mother Ino?"

"She's at the shop."

Inoshi gave a huge nod.

"And why are you not training?"

"Azuma is barking at Shika to run."

Another huge nod.

"Whhhhhhhhhhhhat? My boy? Being yelled at? HA! Not surprised, what the punk do?"

"Lost to Chouji for taking his eyes off him."

Shikato almost chocked as Choumaru slapped his back and laughter.

"That's my boy! Kicking your son's ass. Whoo!"

The two started to yell back and forth on who's son is better and Inoshi looked down at his daughter. Ino smiled and saw that his cheeks were slightly colored.

"Sigh/hic You're a good girl, right?"

"Yes Otousan"

"Good. So hows traini-"

"Shikamaru! Come here!"

Shika almost doubled over at his father's out burst. Things just got worse for him when he saw the blond man holding the blond girl. He slightly smiled at her, but then got a wake in the head from his old man.

"You lost to the Akimichi kid? Coooome on."

"It's not the first time I've lost to Chouji dad."

"Bah. You're a Nara! You should have...kicked his or something."

Shika rolled his eyes.

"Oh yeah. That would of worked. Give me a break."

Ino laughed from her father's lap.

"Uh...I'm done with the laps."

Ino hopped down and ran a hand threw her long ponytail.

"Took you long enough. I'm bored. Let's go."

Shikamaru blinked at the blunt comment for him to follow Ino and Shikato gave a inner laugh.

"Oh brother."

Shikamaru followed out Ino into the street but before he went too far Inoshi grabbed his shoulder quite roughly. He gave him a look up and down and then let the young ninja go. Shika stood for a second before Ino's voice hit him in the head.

"Shikamaru! I said let's go!"

Shika ran out of the bar behind Ino.

"That boy of yours is trouble."

"Huh? The lazy one? Nah. He's a good kid...although he can't hold up his own against Chouji."

"HA! Damn straight."

"Shut up Choumaru"

Inoshi looked up the little white daisy that came onto of the pork sticks and became lost in his thoughts. Until Shikato took that stick and elbowed him.

"Hey Inoshi. Did I ever tell you what you get when you cross a ninja with a chicken?"

Ino started to chew on her bottom lip as Shika kept looking at the ground. They were walking, but neither knew where to go. Shika looked over to Ino and still liked what he saw. Minus the fact that she barked at him to come with her. She had perfect skin and a perfect face. Beautiful eyes that matched everything and he strong slick ninja body where her breasts moved gently up and down as she walked with a bounce in her step. Shika got a small nose bleed so he quickly turned away to wipe the blood off on his wrist.

"Hmm? What are you doing?"

Ino had cocked one slender eyebrow at his quick movement.

"Nothing. Say. I know something that we can do. Follow me."

Shika ducked into an alleyway and Ino followed. After a few ways down dirt roads, many lefts and rights, a few 'we're almost there' and then a quick leap over a river bank, Shika lead Ino to a beautiful green field with a single tree full of branches and leafs on the left side. Ino smiled. There were lots of wild flowers everywhere and in the open they smelled quite nice. Shikamaru walked to the tree and right where the shadow of the tree ended he laid himself down.

"Oooo. I see."

Ino had to giggle. It didn't take Ino that long to figure out what they were going to do. This was indeed Shikamaru's favorite pass time. She looked up at the cloud filled sky and warm sun and shrugged.

"Come on,"

Shika patted the grass next to him.

"It's really nice once you learn to do it right."

Ino tilted her head and laid down next to the Shadow Ninja.

"You have to learn how to watch clouds. Please."

"Your such a pain. Anyone can watch them, but I learned to really watch them. Chouji's getting the hang of it a bit. Now it's your turn to learn."

"Ok, oh mighty teacher. Teach me how to watch clouds."

Shika rolled his eyes again but smiled.

"First, take in a deep breath."

She was such a good drama queen. What a women. Shika clearly heard her deep breath.

"Relax everything. Think of nothing. Clear your mind. And -"

"Become one with the clouds?"

"-and don't be such a pain in the ass. Now here is the trick."

"There's a trick even?"

"Yeah. Don't just watch the clouds. But try and get a glimpse of the sky between the clouds. But still watch the clouds. That make sense?"

"Yeah, I think I can understand that."

Clouds were so pretty in the late spring. They were gathering to make rain but then they stopped and many shades of whites could be seen. Sky was a totally different thing all together. It was blue but...really blue. Ino lifted her eyebrows.

'Holy crap. I'm starting to think about the sky. Snap out of it women!'

"Keep breathing. Chouji has a hard time with that."

"Hmm? How come?"

"Because he keeps bringing chips with him. Hard to breath and eat and lay down all at the same time."

"Oh."

Ino took in another deep breath. And as she was watching the sky a butterfly passed her eye sight.

"Yeah, another reason it's worth walking here. No bees. Just butterflies and ladybugs."

"You're a dork."

"And you're a bother."

"Not as much as you."

"I bother you?"

"Like a tooth ack."

"Ouch."

"Ouch is right."

Ino's eyes looked down to see that Shika interlinked his fingers with hers. They were holding hands. Ino took in a another deep breath but quieter. Shikamaru thought his face was on fire.

'Chill out Shika. She's not pulling away. Don't break her hand. Watch the clouds. Yeah...like that...this is nice.'

'Relax Ino. He's being cute. Don't pull away, you would make yourself look like a prude. Just keep watching the stupid clouds. Yeah...like that...this is neat.'

Moments became minutes that slipped into being half an hour. Suddenly Ino's view of the clouds were covered by Shikamaru's face and soon were her lips. Ino's lose grip on his hand tightened like crazy but tried to steady her breathing. It wasn't working. Ino sounded like she was hyperventilating. Shika pulled up and Ino gasped for breath and bolted up. Shika looked away and muttered a sorry, but Ino's hands came to Shika's face and turned him around to meet up with her's in a deep kiss. Shikamaru stroked her hand and slipped his tongue into her slightly opened mouth. Ino leaned back some and soon was laying down on the grass again only this time with Shikamaru fully on top of her with a hand traveling down her hip and back up to the inside of the blond's shirt. Shika pulled back and Ino gasped for breath and then gasped out again when Shika dipped his head down to trail up wet kisses up her neck. His hand cupped one of Ino's perfectly shaped breasts and kneaded it to make the young girl moan again. Shikamaru placed his one knee between her legs to spread them and her skirt draped to the left side. Shika smiled as he felt up Ino's hard nipple. He gave out a slight laugh.

"Oh...sh-shut up."

Shikamaru's other hand went to Ino's leg bandages and started to trail the pattern that they were wrapped in.

"I always wanted to ask you-"

"Hmm?"

"Why do you wear these things anyways? Your legs are beautiful."

Ino blushed beyond anything.

"Because I still want to AH!"

Shika rubbed his hand on the inside of her thighs.

"Still wear a skirt, be a girl, just no show anything off. Oo!"

He licked her again and the a kiss.

"Why not?"

"What do you mean why n-ye!"

Shika undid the bandage wraps on the left leg. Ino's hands went up to Shika's shoulders and slightly pushed him off. Shika shot his eyes to high heaven.

"What? What's the matter?"

Ino put the stand of hair behind her ear and gave a smirk and a painfully evil look on her pretty face.

"Let's go back to my place."

Shika leaned in to kiss her again and she tried to get the happy puppy off her.

"Butbutbutbut. Buuut. later tonight. I'll make my parents go out tonight and then I'll let you get in my window and then...we'll see what happeneds."

Shikamaru sighed.

"Fine. But why not now?"

Ino smiled and pointed behind the boy. Shika turned around to see a happy, bouncing, munching and smiling Chouji come up to his two team mates. This is now twice, TWICE, that Chouji stopped Shikamaru and Ino from getting close. Shika glared like no other. But Chouji just laughed.

"Hah! I see by your look your still ticked off about this morning. It's ok."

"Yes, Chouji my friend, I'm ticked off..."

Ino re-tied up her leg up quickly, stood up, fixed her hair and winked at the boys before walking off. Chouji smiled at her while eating a box of Pocky and then turned back to his best friend.

"Watching clouds?"

Shika's eyes haven't left Ino's retreating backside and sighed.

"Your such a hassle Chouji."

Chouji sat down and then looked up.

"I know. Pokey?"

"Why not. I have time to kill."

"Oh? Whatcha doing tonight Shikamaru?"

Smiling and then laying down, Shika put his hands behind his head and didn't say a word. Chouji shrugged.

"Azuma enjoyed whipping you around town?"

"Sigh Shut up."
