Summary: Aren't you going to eat at all?
Author's Notes: Hmm... a certain reviewer asked for SasuIno, and since I 'LIVE TO PLEASE YOUU' I was like "Okay, sure!" This was originally going to be ChoIno, but I can't imagine Ino forcing him to date her... And, yeah. This has been floating in my head for awhile.. Enjoy? D:


Sasuke looked up from his bowl of ramen at Ino, who was simply staring at her bowl.

"Aren't you going to eat?" the blond jerked in her seat, her eyes quickly finding the face of the Uchiha.

"Ahh... No, I'm not really hungry." she gave a nervous laugh, one hand reaching up to tuck some hair behind her ear.

"Why not? You were the one who forced me into this... 'date'." Ino frowned slightly, knowing he was right. The only reason Sasuke was there was because she had forced him to go with her.

"Well, I hadn't expected you to come, I guess, so, uhm--"

"Don't lie to me," Sasuke rolled his eyes. Ino was a vain girl, she always expected him to say yes, so she was always prepared. "Really, why aren't you eating?"

"Uhm... Well, I'm on a diet..." the boy rose a brow as he looked her over. He didn't know why she would want to go on a diet-- if anything, she should be trying to put on some weight, she just barely filled out her clothes lately. He sighed.

"So, you're not going to eat at all?" Ino hesitated a moment, as if thinking it over, before shaking her head. Sasuke sighed again, before rising from his seat.

"Hey, where are you..." the words died in her throat as she watched the Uchiha prodigy slide into her seat. (1)

"It won't be a real date," he explained, "if I'm the only one eating." Ino continued to look up at him in confusion, as he reached towards her untouched bowl. Carefully, he swirled some noodles into a spoon, before bringing it towards her face. "Eat."

"But... I'm on a diet..." Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Eat, and I'll go on another date with you." Who could argue with that? Ino bit her lip, before hesitantly placing her lips over the spoon, sucking the noodles into her mouth.

Days later, after Ino had started eating regularly, Sasuke met up with her for another dinner-date. He looked her up and down, a smile barely tugging at the edge of his lips.

"You look better with a little weight on, Ino." she only grinned at him for a second before dragging him into the restaurant.


(1) When I thought this up, I imagined them in a booth for some reason... so imagine he's sliding into her side of the bench/booth whatever you call it xD;

Ahh... Not quite the ending I wanted. Originally, I was ending it at the part before the 'Days later...' line, but that made the story seem unfinished. D: Fluff, yet again. --;

Y'know, I'm actually planning on pairing Ino with every Akatsuki member... It's one of my future GOALS xD; So, don't have a heart attack if you see a Hidan/Kakuzu/KisameIno drabble in the future. (Because if Sakura can be paired with Kisame, SO CAN INO.) but don't worry, I'll still make ItaIno, ZetIno, and DeiIno :3 Or try, anyways. At the moment, however, there is a bunny in my head that's screaming 'NARUINO!' and I even have something planned for that, so... just you wait xD; I'll shut up.
