AN: READ AND REVIEW!
Shikamaru: Age 11
Chapter 6 – Partners?
Shikamaru spent an hour in humiliation and pain before everything got worse. If that is even possible!
"Partners!" Iruka chirped. "I pick." The class erupted in groans, though none could make up for Shikamaru's squeak.
Iruka walked over to his desk. "Sakura and Chouji. Hinata and Kiba. Ino and Shikamaru…"
Shikamaru literally choked. "What?" he whispered to Chouji. "No way!"
"Iruka-sensei, sir?" Ino outbursted, raising her dainty-looking hand. "Do I have to work with such a slacker? I mean…he hasn't lifted a finger all year!" Shikamaru flinched at her cold words. Ouch!
"Ms. Yamanaka!" Iruka started at hearing her hurtful words. You must work with Shikamaru. And I am disgraced that you would be so rude to your classmates!" The teacher was agast at her for being so rude. "Shikamaru is NOT a slacker!"
Shikamaru watched Ino huff, obviously ready to say more. Surprisingly, though, she actually kept her big trap shut! But that didn't stop her from glaring at him with hate-filled, astonishingly blue eyes!
Shikamaru has never been more glad when the final bell rang after what seemed like an eternity. As soon as he heard it, he sprang to his feet and darted out the door. The unfortunate boy was desperately trying to outrun his bad luck. So much, that he was actually willingly breaking a sweat!
I know! Short! But read and review!
