Forgotten
Disclaimer: I own a Sasuke! plushie...eh as good as it's gonna get. Other than that I don't own Naruto or any of the coordinated characters.
Thank you everyone for your wonderful reviews and I shall now take some time to answer some questions. Ino will be quite devious in the next few chapters but she won't be incredibly mean to Sakura cause she realizes that maybe it was wrong for them to have stop being friends but she is still evil in the way that she wants Sasuke all to herself. No she won't start going out with Naruto but...there is a third character that shall be addressed later ;P so keep reading! Now on with the show!
Recap: Ino grabbed Sakura's arm and started pulling her in. "Don't worry I'll take good care of her!!!" She said quickly before closing the door the rest of team 7. Ino turned and looked at Sakura. "Hi, I'm Ino your best friend."
Chapter 5- Sakura and Ino's Day
Sasuke had a bad feeling about this arrangement but paid now mind to it. What
should he care of Sakura and her little playmates did. But there was still an impending feeling it the pit of his stomach. He finally tuned in to what Kakashi and Naruto were talking about.
"OY! Lets get Ramen!!!" Naruto cheered.
"Aa...well I am a bit hungry." Kakashi agreed, both turning towards Sasuke for his answer. Sasuke usually didn't join them but he didn't want to catch himself thinking to much on Sakura so he nodded slowly and followed the two to Naruto's favourite ramen shop.
Back to our girls
Ino picked up Sakura's bags [A/N: which popped out of no where thanks to my bad orginazation of ideas] and brought them into the guest room where Ino through them on the bed.
"Here we go! Nice an comfy ne?" Ino said happily.
"Aa.." Sakura agreed quietly.
"Ok...well I know we got off on sorta the wrong foot, and I know I acted sorta...bitchy and stuff but that's just how we are around each other! We've been best friends since kindergarten ya know!" Ino smiled wildly carefully planning her words carefully to make sure her plan worked. "Do you remember any of it?" Sakura thought about this for a moment remembering the small recaps of herself calling Ino, Ino-pig.
"I guess so...yah!"
"Right! So then I guess I would be the perfect person to help you regain you
memory. O yah one more thing...You know Sasuke? The one who helped you."
"yah..."
"He's my boyfriend." Sakura was stunned by this even with the few minutes of talking with him she felt strong feelings towards him like she knew him well before. She looked up at Ino who was smiling brightly and thought to herself 'Of course he's her boyfriend...I mean she is beautiful...a lot more beautiful than me...' [A/N: I got this from when a long time ago Sakura felt very small when compared to Ino]
"uh...right" she muttered.
"Just letting you know...we are trying to regain your memory remember! We love each other very much" she added just to make sure it was clear to Sakura to keep hands off. "Well anyways, my parents won't be home till late at night so lets have a girls night in and just have fun for today! Ok?"
"Yah sure sounds...great!" she said deciding to keep away from Sasuke.
"So...where do you wanna go first?"
"Er...ur choice...I don't really know whats fun and whats not yet.."
"Oh right...almost forgot...Well one of my favorite movies of all times is on later...we could watch that...but for the time being lets just go shopping."
"mm...Sounds great!"
So our two girls head of towards the closest supermarket to do a little shopping.
"Aa...chotto I don't have any money to go shopping." Ino turned her head back to look at Sakura who seemed very concerned.
"Oh don't worry about that I've got enough allowance from working at my mom's flower shop for the both of us!" Ino said proudly
"Ari-Arigatou!" Sakura said running up to Ino. "You truly must be my best friend...ur so nice..." Ino looked at Sakura and felt a pang of guilt because she was truly only using this time to try and erase Sasuke from her mind entirely or at least replace him. Ino forced a giggle [a heh heh heh]and continued walking down towards her favorite clothes shop.
When they finally got there the two girls got all giddy and raced around the shop pulling out dresses and skirts to try on. Sakura was very careful with what she chose knowing she was spending Ino's money. Sakura came across a lovely sundress and pulled it out to look at. It had a white tank top styled top and the bottom was a beautiful pinkish skirt with little cherry blossom petals to decorate it, around the waist was a beautiful pink lace that tied around the back into a bow. Sakura gazed at it longingly but she knew the price was way to high. Ino came up behind her and studied it.
"Looks beautiful!" Ino commented, Sakura let out a tiny yelp and tried to stuff it back in. "No I mean it! It'd look great on you!"
"I know...it's just...to expensive..." Sakura mumbled. Ino looked at the price tag. '10,00 yen! Agh...I'm gonna be broke for weeks...ah well nobody said friendship would be cheep...even if it is fake.' Ino thought evily.
"Don't worry about it! I'll pay for it! I am your best friend!"
"Are you sure...I mean...it is really expensive..."
"I'm sure I'm sure! Come on try it on!" Ino said pulling Sakura towards the dressing rooms.
A few minutes later Sakura came out in the beautiful sundress on.
"Ooh! You look awesome!" Ino cooed. Sakura flushed.
"You really think so?" Sakura walked up to the mirror to see her reflection. She had to admit she looked pretty fine in that thing. It showed off her long sleek legs and skinny torso. She examined herself carefully.
"You know you waaant it." Ino laughed admiringly.
"Ooh...I do want it! But I promise to pay you back and everything! That is...once I regain my memory." Sakura beamed hugging Ino. Ino stood there for a sec feeling that pang of guilt again.
"Uh...sure sure whatever."
Buy the time they finished buying their clothes it was close to 6:30pm. After a quick trip home to change they decided to go to the ramen shop to have dinner. Sakura wearing a tight black jeans and a pink shirt, with Ino wearing short shorts and a bluish tight top showing off her navel. 'I feel like I've been here before' Sakura thought to herself.
"The ramen here's great! Choose anything you want I'm buyin" Ino said cheerfully. Ino glanced around and saw Shikamaru and Choiji there as well. She dragged Sakura over to say hello. Shikamaru himself was very surprised to see Sakura and Ino no further than 2 feet apart and not bickering, Choiji was too busy pigging out to notice. "Oh hey! This is MY ninja team! Team 10!"
"Ninjas...Oh hey!" Sakura said quietly. Shikamaru cocked his eyebrow and Ino waiting for an answer.
"She has amnesia you baka."she replied elbowing him like Shikamaru should already know this. She turned her attention back to Sakura, "You know ninja's..." She said not knowing how she was supposed to explain that. "My honey Sasuke-kun is the number one ninja for our age group in Konoha!"
"How troublesome..." He mumbled. 'So that's her plan..." he thought to himself. Sakura replayed the words troublesome in her head and kept seeing Shikamaru saying those words every time he was given a heinous task. "Hey...I'm-"
"Shikamaru!" Sakura piped up. Ino stared wide eyed at her while it was her turn to get a cocked eyebrow from Shikamaru.
"Right..." Sakura giggled happily for getting it right and took a seat beside him. 'Damnit! She's getting her memory back faster than I want her too!" Ino whined to herself. Sakura turned her head towards Choiji who was still stuffing food into his mouth.
"Hi!" Sakura said to Choiji.
"Grumble grumble grumble..." Choiji grumbled. Sakura sweat dropped and she and Ino ordered their ramen. Sakura ordering the plain miso soup whereas Ino ordered Shark Fin and tripe ramen. After they were done Shikamaru informed her that his friends name here name is Choiji, then Sakura started up a friendly conversation with him. 'Shikamaru never pays attention to girls!!! Why is he talking so much with Sakura!!! I should break them up' Ino decided but before she could say anything she noticed Gaara staring intently at Sakura, Ino froze the last thing she needed was Gaara coming over reminding Sakura of how she risked her life trying to save Sasuke. Too late Shikamaru was pointing at Gaara! 'Ah! Shikamaru you dinkis!' Ino whined in her thoughts. She tuned into what Shikamaru was actually saying.
"Hey look over there it's Gaara! He's one of the members of the Sand nins." Shikamaru told Sakura wisely. Sakura looked over at him slowly. 'Wow his hair is really red...' Sakura mumbled to herself. She finally realized that Gaara was staring rite back at her so she freaked and slowly raised her hand to wave. Gaara noticing this had his sand start to fill the area around him. Shikamaru and Ino freaked out, and even Choiji realized that this probably wasn't a good time to eat. "Come on, we gotta leave now." Shikamaru said grabbing Sakura's arm pulling her away from the restaurant. Sakura was dumbfounded and looked behind her at Gaara. 'He looks..sad..." Sakura thought.
When they were finally away from the restaurant they were breathing hard trying to catch their breath. Ino was the first to pipe up, "You can let go of her hand now you moron, she's not a doll." She spat. Shikamaru let go of her arm and started rubbing the back of his head muttering troublesome under his breath. Ino didn't know why she felt so furious towards the two, it's not like she had feelings for him...did she? If Sakura didn't know any better she would have sworn Ino was jealous. "Come on Sakura my movies almost on lets go home." Ino said walking away with Sakura following. Shikamaru sighed and started walking away too with Choiji until he heard the hollering of an older man and he turned around to see the Ramen shop owner.
"Aw shit" Shikamaru muttered realizing they hadn't paid before they left.
"You! You there! Were those 2 girls your dates or something?" the man demanded. Shikamaru really didn't have time or energy to explain this so he just said yes. "Good pay for theirs too!"
"AGH!!!!" Shikamaru moaned. [A/N: To my friend BabyKakashi...I KNOW WAT UR THINKING! GUTTER MIND! Lmao...] Shikamaru paid for the 3 dinners and finally headed home.
When Sakura and Ino finally got home, Ino flopped down on her couch and turned on the TV. Sakura sat down next to Ino sensing the fury eminating from her friend. "Uh...Ino?"
"What?!?" Ino spat back.
"Er...are you mad at me?"
"Why I would I be angry at you?!?"
"I dunno...are you mad cause I was talking so much with Shikamaru?"
"PFFFFT! HECK NO! I don't care about that stupid bastard! I'm prefectly happy with my prince charming Sasuke and will never stray from him cause I feel safe in his big strong arms!!!!!!" Sakura had to slow mo what her friend just said because she said it so quickly almost like she was not only telling Sakura but herself as well.
"O-oh.."
Ino sighed, "I'm sorry Sakura I don't know what came over me...I'm probably just pmsing."
"That's ok! I understand." They both shushed while the movie started to play. Ino cooled it and almost forgot all about it.
The movie was about these 2 girls who were the best of friends, one of their name was Sarah and the others name was Jessica, since they were little kids until they realize they were both in love with this boy named Shaun who had a best friend named Nathan. [LMAO! LETS WATCH NATHAN! Inside joke pay no heed]. After the two found out they were in love with the same man the stopped being best friends. Sarah one day caught Shaun kissing another women and became suicidal because she had loved him oh so very much. She ended up killing herself because of it. Jessica felt very guilty about them becoming enemies because they were such good friends in the past. Jessica became very depressed, and Shaun then started hitting on her which she thought would make her feel better but made her feel so much worse. Instead of finding comfort in Shaun she found comfort in the person she least expected her long time friend of since she was little, Steven. Who in the end finally admitted that he's loved her for a long time, thus lived happily ever after!
Both Ino and Sakura enjoyed the movie a lot. Both screamed, "NO SARAH!!!" when she jumped from the cliff, and both went "Aawwwww!" when Jessica and Steven finally kiss. After the movie Ino and Sakura started jumping around the house giddily repeating romantic lines from the movie. They laughed and had fun for the rest of the night. Finally they decided to head to their respective rooms for the night.
"Night Sakura." Ino said sleepily.
"Sweet Dreams Ino" Sakura said yawning.
When they were both tucked in for bed Ino couldn't get to sleep. She had so much fun today with Sakura, did she still really want to ruin her future with Sasuke if there was one. Before she finally drifted off she heard a soft nock on her door. She opened the door slowly revealing Sakura. "What's the matter?" In said rubbing her eyes.
"I can't sleep," Sakura said slowly.
"Oh...you can sleep in my room if you want. [A/N: No this will not be a yuri scene it's just two best friends having a sort of a sleep over]
"Thanks Ino!" Sakura said entering the room and setting up her blankets on the floor. [A/N: I'm making Ino have a high-rise bed instead of a floor bed.] Finally the girls are all tucked in and ready to go back to sleep. "Ino...Thanks for being my friend," Ino felt an instant pang of guilt after she said that.
"W-why do you say that?" She tried to reply nonchalantly.
"Well...I feel like I've known you for a really long time and that I can trust you with everything you know? I guess I'm just saying...I'm glad I have as good a friend as you." There was a moment of silence.
"I'm glad you're my friend too." She said very honestly.
"Night Ino."
"Night Sakura."
ALRIGHT! That's the end of this chapter...there was no Sasuke in this chapter...but next chapter there most definitely will be! Because! Ino and Sakura will be having a co-ed Sleepover. Oh whts that you say? It's a unisex sleepover which means both sex are invited! Omg you say that's impossible! I'm afraid it is possible! And they're having one! Lol awesome stuff...loves it.
