So this idea popped into my head, and I had just enough time between auditions and rehearsals and classes and dinner to write it. It's ChouIno, which I rather enjoy because I am in love with ShikaTem and Chouji deserves someone. Enjoy!
I do not own Naruto.
Tapestry
---Four: Big---
It was common knowledge to the residents of Konoha that Ino Yamanaka's taste in men was incredibly selective and generally fell to those classified as "pretty boys."
So, needless to say, they were rather confused when she began dating Chouji Akimichi.
True, the two had known each other for years, having been on the same team together. Yes, their families were very close, as their fathers had also been teamed up in their youth. But still the people who didn't know the two found it strange to see them walking down the street holding hands.
Some suggested it was a matter of balance; Ino was the skinniest kunoichi in the village, and Chouji was certainly at least three times her width- if not more. However, all of the other men Ino had ever liked were more than half Chouji's size.
Some assumed it was a personality thing, since Ino was very domineering (like most women in Konoha, in fact) and Chouji gave in to her every whim. The flaw in this theory was that most of the men who liked Ino had done that.
What the people failed to grasp was that Ino was a believer in fairy tales. And no matter how much she might enjoy a pretty face, the idea of a big strong man to protect her- even if she was perfectly capable of defending herself should the need arise- appealed to her even more.

I think this is the shortest one so far… oh well. I've been trying to write a ChouIno for weeks and (except for the last bit) it just wouldn't come out until today. Thanks for reading, and please review!
