Wondering:

She still remembered his voice. . .

"Ino. . ."

Shino used to speak to her no matter if bugs were flying out of his mouth. When that did happen the blond would giggle and say she didn' t care, as long as he said something nothing else mattered.

They were young when they met, naturally. Both said nothing in meeting, but knew they would be good friends.

Nowadays the Yamanaka child would spit back rude words if she heard people saying how cute Shino and herself looked together, back then.

It was kinda a secret thing, her feelings. Ino never liked that Shino figured it out that she liked him. So as a child she decided she wanted nothing to do with him.

Today, as she watched Shino, the Aburame, she wondered if it would be any different. . . if she didn' t run from her feelings.

Ino was going to take action! Thinking was never her friend in the long run.

After all she was only gonna kiss him. . .
