Sakura avoided Ino and ran to the store as fast as she could before it closed, she made it just in time, the merchant was just about to close up.

After she power-shopped and grabbed the milk and bird food she paid and left, of course running into Shino on her way home.

"H-hello Sakura chan!" Shino stuttered out.

"Hey Shino-kun what's up?" Sakura said casually.

"Not much, I guess, Why are you out so late?"

"Well, I guess you could say that I lost track of time. You?"

"Well, night is really the only time I can walk around without my face being covered, my eyes are extremely sensitive." He blushed invisibly but it was too dark for her to notice that his face was uncovered.

"Yeah, come to think of it, I've never actually seen your face."

"Well, I guess you have now." He laughed.

"Sort of, it's too dark to see in detail."

"Oh, sorry, sometimes I forget others can't see in the dark like I do." He blushed visibly this time, they were walking closer to a street lamp where she could see his face in detail.

"Wow, you really do have beautiful eyes. "She was really making his face red this time.

"T-thank you!" Crap! He was stuttering again.

"Umm, Sakura-chan, there was something I've been wanting to ask you for a while now..."

"What's that?" She asked curiously.

"Umm..." He took a deep breath. "Sakura, will you, umm, go out with... me?"

"Oh, wow, well Shino, I- I can't, I'm already going out with someone, sorry." Sakura was blushing now.

"O- oh, I get it, sorry for bothering you." Shino walked away with his shoulders slumped staring at the ground and the life was completly drained from his beautiful eyes.

"Wait!" She yelled. He either didn't hear her or wasn't listining. She sighed with frusteration.

"Why do guys have to be so complecated?"

"Guys aren't the ones who are complicated Sakura-chan."

"HM? WAIT! How long have you been sitting there Shikamaru?"

"long enough to know that you think shino has beautiful eyes. I've been here this whole time, It's not my fault you didn't see me."

"Yeah, but you should respect other peoples privacy at least a little!"

" 1. your on a public street, so it's not private, 2. I can't help but hear, I've learned to Listen in my sleep, you can thank Ino for that."

"Well, I guess I can't argue with you there, but you should still mind your own business. Shoulden't you be at home to sleep anyway?"

"My house is getting fumagated, We had a flea infestation since the day Kiba and Akamaru spent the night."

"Eh. I guess that makes sence. You need a place to crash for the night? My couch is open."

"Nah. I've got a feeling Temari would find me there, that chick has been on me like a hound for the past month, I'm not sure what I did to make her want me so bad, but whatever it was it sure as heck worked." Shikamaru sighed.

"Well, I guess I'll see you around, bye." Sakura waved as she walked home.

When Sakura opened the door to er apartment she was welcomed home by her two parakeets, fluffe and sqishy.

"SQUACKA!"

"Hey guys! dinnertime!" she flipped on the light and changed the birds food.

She flopped on her couch and started waching big brother.

"kami I hate reality tv. Eh. nothing else on." She fell asleep after five minuites.

that morning (ohno! this keyboard has no squigley line thingy!*pinic attack*)

Shino was walking to somwhere, anywhwer really, just to get away from the hopeless-lifesucking-depression feling in his gut when he ran into Ino, outside the bar of course, passed out. . Kiba had gotten drunk lastnight and went off to kill somebody.

"Ino-chan, wake up." he knelt down and shook her shoulder until she awoke.

the first person she saw that moning was shino. and her first words were :

"Aw shit... just what exactly happened last night?" she was perfectly aware of her location, but didn't remember getting there. after all, she had woken up stranger places with stranger people before.

"How would I know, I wasn't there."

"Oh Thankgod! So, I didn't sleep with you?"

"No."

"Damn. well, I'm not sure wether I like that or not."

"HUH?"

"HAHAHA! Your hilarious Shino! You react to everything I say like that so shyly!" Ino smiled.

"Oh. Well, how do you expect me to react when you say you want to sleep with me?"

"Not sure, Thats why I love seeing your reactions!"

"Hm. So, what exactly are you doing passed out behind a bar?"

"Eh. you know about as much as I do. Dang Kiba knows he shoulden't let me so close to the sake. I never could stop myself."

"I'm pretty sure that's what he wanted, by the way he was eying yesterday."

"You think so?"

"Probably. Do you need help getting up?"

"Nah, I got you walk home with me?"

"Sure Ino."

Oddly enough this situation was completly okay with either of them, and they had managed to have a perfectly normal-ish conversation to spite the fact Ino was laying on her back in the dirt.

"Hey, what's wrong witch you, You look depressed, it's about a girl, isn't it? who?"

"Sakura."

"What about her?"

"Everything."

"OOOHHH! DO TELL!"

"Well, I asked her out yesterday, and she said she was already taken."

"I need more details than that before I can solve your issue."

"Thre's nothing else to it. I like a girl who's taken."

"Hmm, So Sakura has a boyfriend... Sorry Shino, I'll talk to you later, I've got to talk to Sakura." Ino went to Sakura's apartment as fast as she could.

"See ya."

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK* Ino poounded the door to Sakura's apartment.

"Eh?" Sakura awnsered the door.

"SAKURA! WHAT THE HECK?"

"EH?" Sakura repeated.

"WHY DID YOU LIE TO SHINO LIKE THAT?"

"I didn't lie. How the heck do you know?"

"UMM NEVERMND THAT! When did you get a boyfriend?"

"Christmas , I guess."

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?"

"Havn't talked to you."

"YOU STILL NEED TO TELL ME THINGS! How am I supposed to keep up on gossip if noone tells me anything?"

"Ino, we only kissed once, and it wasnt even a real kiss, there's nothing to tell yet."

"Whatever` forehead. I need to go console Shino."

"Um, bye." Sakura closed her door.
