Summary: For the sake of their love ones, they all give up. But, hey! They got the wrong thing to do. So what now? MATCHMAKERS TO THE RESCUE!
Chapter 2: Shikamaru's Love For InoShikamaru's POV:
I watch Ino as she walked away. She seemed… desperate. I guess she really loves that Sasuke (iA-yOh: You got it all wrong… And they say you're the genius) … Troublesome, why do I even think of it? Maybe… Maybe I shouldn't think of confessing to her. Besides, she's already too devoted for Sasuke, right? Maybe… Maybe if I really love her, I would let her go.
All right… maybe I should give up on her. I should… I should be supporting her for Sasuke, 100 Percent!… Jeez, now I'm acting like Lee. But now…
I need a plan… I need Sasuke to fall for Ino. That way she'll be happy. But what about me? Oh wait, what about me! Hell, Shikamaru, and they say you're the genius. (iA-yOh: That's what I said!) So, I would make Sasuke fall for Ino… but how? Obviously, he likes the pink-haired but keeps on denying it!
…
THAT'S IT! All I have to do is get rid of that Sakura, that way Ino could… could have him. But… how could I get rid of Sakura? Man, this is troublesome.
Hmm… I need somebody to flirt with her. But who?
…
…
…
Oh all right! Even if it's too troublesome, I'll do this for Ino. Yes… from now on…
I shall flirt (bleagh!) with Sakura! Ino… I'm doing this for you.
…
…
I hope Sasuke doesn't kill me for this.
