A/N~ Hey you guys I am back and writing the rest of this fic! Yay! It has about six more chapters, I wish it could be longer but I really want to get this done so I can post a one shot or two dealing with my Supernatural series. So anyway here you go! By the way, sorry for the long wait. :)
DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Naruto characters!
Ino was waiting in the emergency waiting room. She was so worried about her husband and just wanted to know what the hell was going on. As she sat there she noticed how busy the emergency room actually was. "Wow being a ninja is really dangerous…I never noticed." She muttered when she noticed all of the forehead protectors and green vests.
"You wouldn't notice unless you spend a lot of your time here after missions." Sakura replied.
"What are you doing here?" Ino asked.
"Sasuke got hurt on his way back." Sakura replied.
"How the hell does the great Uchiha get hurt?" Ino asked shocked.
"Easily, he let his guard down." Sakura answered.
Ino was about to reply when, "Family of Shikamaru Nara." A doctor called. Ino stood up and walked over to the doctor. "Your husband is just fine Mrs. Nara, he is going to have to go into surgery for an appendectomy, but he will recover in a week or two." The doctor said when they were standing outside of Shika's room. "He wanted to see you before he went in for the surgery." The doctor added and let Ino enter the room.
"Hey baby. How are you feeling?" Ino asked after she walked over to her husband and grabbed his hand.
"I am just fine Ino; they gave me something to keep the nausea at bay. The surgery should only last a couple of hours." Shika replied with a smile.
"Shika, I love you. I want you to know that after you have this surgery I am going to take leave to care for you while you recover." Ino said.
"You don't have to do that my love." Shika replied, fighting sleep.
"I know I don't but I want to. Baby don't fight it, go to sleep I will be here when you wake up from the surgery. Love you." Ino replied then placed a gentle but tender kiss to her husband's lips.
"I love you too." Shika replied before he fell into a drug induced sleep.
Ino stepped out of the room and walked to the OR waiting room where she was told she could wait. When she sat down she saw Tenten. "Hey Tenten, what are you doing here?" Ino asked her, trying to make conversation.
"Neji is in there, he was hurt on the last mission, and they found the blind spot and attacked." Tenten replied.
"Okay, Shika is getting his appendix out." Ino replied.
Tenten nodded than turned away. Ino sighed and decided to run and get her leave cleared with Tsunade. When she arrived she knocked on the door and entered when she was cleared to do so. "Hello Ino what can I do for you?" Tsunade asked.
"I need about two to three weeks of, so does Shikamaru." Ino replied.
"May I ask why?" Tsunade replied.
"Shikamaru is getting his appendix out, and I want to help him through his recovery. I will go on a mission if it is absolutely necessary but I would prefer not to." Ino replied.
"Very well, I will only call you in within the next three weeks if absolutely necessary." Replied Tsunade with a smile.
Ino nodded, bowed and ran back to the hospital where she awaited the news of her husband.
A/N~ The next six chapters will be longer, this one is really just to see if I still have fans. Anyway please review and I will post the next chapter soon. If I get some reviews then the next chapter will be up either later tonight or as soon as I wake up in the morning! It depends on how many reviews I get. :)
