2 Years Later...

I watch her pass me. Her long hair flowed behind her and so did her team mates. I sighed. She looked so flawless. When would the flawless girl notice me though? Sakura had nothing to do with me. She spent all of her time with Sai or training to become the best medic-nin ever. So I spent most of my time alone, even though I wanted to spend time with Ino. I wanted to, but never got the chances to. She always said, "Another time." Or "I need sometime to think about it." Then there was my favorite, "I'm sorry I'm spending time with Shika, I don't have time for a boyfriend now." Every time she said one of those lines I felt as if I was dying inside. And the last one, I knew she was lying because she was Shikamaru's girlfriend, so that meant she had time for a boyfriend. I sighed, and continued my walk to the ramen stand.

The third price I had to pay for her was letting her grow, and leaving her to do that, with out me. This one killed me and I knew that it always would I sighed. I had to let her go, let her be who she was; she was best at that anyway. Heck, I should just leave her alone all together and let her have her Shika all she wanted. Let her be who she was and leave her, forget about her, let her fade into my past and become a distant blur...But I tried that, and it didn't work.

I sighed, sitting down in the stand. I ordered the usual, barbeque pork ramen. To my shock and everyone else's who was near, I just picked at it. Ramen didn't seem that appetizing anymore, but I ate it anyway. I sighed, completely lost in my thoughts, my day dreams and my wishes.

Naru-kun's Daydream

The air was warm and the sky was clear. I stood in the middle of the wild flowers in the meadow. The warm breeze made my hair cover my eyes. I sat down and took in the site. Sighing I laid down and relaxed, drifting away into my own dreams. A few hours had past. When I opened my eyes I heard a giggle, and felt someone pulling at my hair. When I saw who it was I thought that I was still dreaming.

"Naru-kun what's wrong?" She said in her sweet voice. "Do you not want me around today? I can leave if you want me to." She smiled, but still had a concerned look in her eyes. I sat up, not believing what I was seeing.

Her long blonde hair was down and was blowing ever so lovely in the breeze. She wore a light purple top with a white skirt. Her hands left my hair, where she hand entwined white wild flowers. She smiled so lovely and effortlessly. It seemed as if we were a couple and that she liked this. I didn't know if I was still dreaming; well until she spoke again.

"Naru-kun, are you okay? I don't want you to be upset; it upsets me when you are." Tears formed in her perfect blue eyes. "Naru, please tell me that you are alright." I looked at her in her eyes and smiled. Then I picked up my hand and brushed the tears away from her eyes, she grabbed my hand as I began to pull it away. My hand now rested on her cheek, with her hand on top of mine. I looked at her and smiled brightly. I looked at her and saw that she was still upset. I smiled once more, even brighter this time, and opened my mouth to speak.

"Ino, I'm fine, really, I am. I was just in shock that you would be here. Why are you here?" I sounded like a complete idiot and all Ino did was laugh at me. She smiled now, happy once again.

"Naru, you're funny, y'know that. You really are a true idiot." She giggled more. "I'm here because I want to be here, with you. I'm here because I'm in love with you." She looked me deeply in the eyes as she said that. I looked back into her's. She was serious, she really loved me. I felt so happy, but at the same time so shock. Then she leaned towards me and kissed my lips. I smiled and blushed. Then she came and kissed me again. This time I responded by kissing her back.

Then as I began to deepen the kiss she began to disappear. Her warmth, her beauty all started to fade away. After a few minutes there was nothing but black surrounding me and that's when I woke up.

End Naru-kun's Daydream

I looked at the ramen bar that was supporting my head. It took me a second to recover from the dream, but as soon as I did I shot up in my seat and looked around. People were staring and I knew that I needed to get away. I quickly payed for my ramen and ran out of the stand.

I ran into the darkness that now surrounded the village. I ran and ran until I couldn't run anymore, and that was when I ran into someone. Without even looking up to see who'd I'd run into. I immediately spoke and turned in my apologies for running into the person.

"I'm so sorry. I did not mean to run into you. It was so I'm polite. Please forgive me. I'm truly an idiot. I really did no-" I was cut off. A delicate hand was placed over my mouth. I looked up for the first time to see who I'd run into. It was her. It was Ino.

"Naruto, it's okay. Look, it was an accident. Nothing big." She wore a smile and her usual purple ninja outfit. I looked at her and nodded.

"But I'm so sorry for running into you, really." She smiled and giggled.

"It's 'kay Naruto, really." She looked at me. "Hey, didn't you say something about hanging out sometime?" I looked at her and nodded.

"Yah, I did." I smiled weakly.

"Why not tomorrow then? We could spend the day together?" she asked this very nicely. I was gonna hate myself for what I was about to say but it had to be said.

"Ino, I'm sorry, I can't. I'm not up for it." I hated myself for saying that, but I knew she wasn't ready for us. I pursed my lips. "Maybe some other time Ino." Ino nodded.

"Yah, okay, sounds good, well then, bye Naruto!" She moved out of my way and walked on in the direction that she had been going. I felt stupid for saying no to her, but she still had Shikamaru and I couldn't him by taking her out. And for the first time since I had fallen deeply in love with Ino, I wanted to watch her walk away. I wanted her to leave. I wanted her to grow and realize how she felt. No matter how much it hurt me to let her pass me by tonight, I never thought about letting it happen again. I would wait. I would wait because I had plenty of time to give her. I would always love Ino. And who knows maybe one day she would become my Ino.
