Ok here's my new chapter. I've gotten a lot of people saying that they want me to make it up from this point on, so I suppose that's what I'll do. I'll try to make my chapters longer. Oh and I may not be able to update that often, it may be only on the weekends. If that's the case then I'll try to longer. So here goes whatever chapter I'm on now.


Disclaimer: I almost forgot, I don't own Naruto if I did it would be on adult swim so that we wouldn't have to cut out all of the good stuff!

"Are you going to homecoming?" Shikamaru asked.

"No, why?" She said.

"I was just hoping that you'd go."

"We'll see." She said.

'Oh my god, he did not just ask me if I was going to home coming. Does that mean that he's asking me to go with him? Nah, he can't be. That's not like him.' Thought Ino.

"Well I guess that's better than a no." Shikamaru said.

"I have to get to class, I'll see you later." She said, and then ran off.

Ino went to all of her other classes and then finally lunch came around.

"So are you going?" Sakura pried.

"Like I said to him, we'll see." Ino said, when out of the corner of her eye she saw Shikamaru holding hands with someone who she absolutely despised.

"Temari." Ino gasped under her breath.

"What'd you say?" asked Tenten.

"Look over there." Sakura said, seeing what Ino was looking at.

"Why that little…" Tenten said while trailing off.

Everyone looked over to see Ino's face filled with rage.

"Well if he has the nerve to go out with Temari and think that he's not going to attract my attention then he's seriously mistaken. Well let's play a game then shall we Shikamaru." Ino said allowed. Sakura, Tenten, and Hinata all looked at Ino with curious eyes.

"I'm done, I'm going to go wait outside of the cafeteria. Come get me when you guys are done. I'm going to think of a plan to win him back." Ino said, then headed out of the cafeteria with her notebook and pencil in her hands.

'Let's see, what would Cosmo Girl do in my situation?' She thought.

"Hey, so you still thinking of what to do?" Sakura asked.

"Yeah, so you got any ideas?"

"Well…if it were me, I'd resort to, jealousy." Tenten said.

"Really? You think that might work?" Ino asked.

"Of course it will! How do you think that I got Neji???" Tenten said while smirking.

"You used Jealousy to get Neji? Wow, I never knew that." Sakura said.

"That's evil…but it just might work. I have an idea." Ino said.

"What's your idea?" Hinata asked, trying not to get into this conversation too much.

"You'll see. Do you guys know where Shino is???" Ino asked.

"Oh my God, Ino, you're not…" Sakura said.

"Oh but I am, so do you or don't you know where he is?" Ino asked.

"Last time I saw him he was by the water fountain just staring off into space." Sakura answered in a somewhat startled voice.

"Thanks a lot Sakura, Tenten, Hinata! I'll see y'all later!" Ino yelled as she ran off towards the water fountain.

Ino found Shino and talked with him for a long time. (A/N: Yes Shino amazingly did talk, it wasn't just Ino.)

"So that's all you want me to do?" Shino asked.

"Yup, and don't worry I'll pay you for your services." Ino said.

"How long will it be for?"

"About a week, it really just depends on how long it takes Shikamaru to notice me."

"Ok. When should we start?" Shino said after Ino paying him the first part of his payment.

"We'll try tomorrow. I'm pretty sure that might work. It's such a good thing that I have you in my 2nd block class, let alone the fact that you sit right behind me!" Ino said in a very perky voice.

"Ok then I'll see you tomorrow." Shino waved and walked off.

"Yup. Bye!" Ino called.

Shino was a very quiet mysterious boy. Believe it or not, he was also one of the most popular boys in the entire school! Apparently girls in that school like the quiet, shy, mysterious kinda dudes. Shino wore a sea green coat that covered up most of his face and wore a pair of dark black, hippie sunglasses that you could see yourself in. He wore brown pants, but they looked more like capris. Shino was by no means ugly. He was very attractive.

Ino was so sure that this plan couldn't fail. That night, Ino went home and wrote in her diary. The last words she wrote for the night was, 'Tomorrows gonna be fun!' Ino fell asleep soon after putting her diary away in the safest place that she knew…under her bed. (A/N: sorry I had put that. Oh and I do NOT have a diary. I so do not have the patients to keep a diary.)

Then next morning Ino woke up well rested and WANTED to go to school! (A/N: Her parents must have been in shock!) Ino was at school early and that's where the fun was just starting. Ino saw Shino at the exact spot that she had told him to meet her at.
