Chapter 8

Hinata woke up from her place on the floor. A little distorted she looked around the place trying to figure out where she was. When the memory of last night hit her, Hinata jumped up from her place on the floor and looked around for Kin. Seeing kin still sleeping on the couch, she let out a sigh she didn't know she was holding. Hinata went inside the kitchen and started making breakfast as she thought about what she was going to do about school. Sighing and planning on not going, she finished and put the food on the table. Right when she finished Kin walked in with blood shot eyes. She looked over to the food on the table.

"Pancakes?" She questioned. Hinata gave her a look.

"You didn't really have that much stuff left in your refrigerator so this was all I could think of making." Hinata answered. Kin nodded her head as she went to sit down. Hinata sat down a few seconds later with a liter of apple juice and two cups. She poured both of them some before putting the top back on it and giving one of the cups to Kin. When they were done eating they went back in the living room. Hinata notice the look Kin kept giving her but said nothing about it.

"I want you to go to school today." Kin said out of nowhere. Hinata looked at her only to see her looking away from her. Still she shook her head knowing she would see that action.

"I'm not leaving you here Kin." Hinata told her. Kin shook her head.

"But I want you to go to school." Kin said. Hinata was about to shake her head again when Kin stood up, "Think about it if you miss a day it could ruin your plan." Kin was adamant that Hinata went to school so with a sigh she nodded her head.

"What am I going to wear?" Hinata asked. Kin pulled her up the stairs.

"You let me worry about that just go wash up." She said pushing her into the bathroom. Hinata came out a few minutes later with the clothes Kin gave her on. She was wearing black skinny jeans and a long sleeve blue shirt. Hinata groaned as she looked at herself in the mirror. Kin wasn't her size so the closet thing they could come to her was a skin tight shirt. The thing was it wasn't because Hinata wasn't developed in her chest area that she didn't want to wear the shirt it was because she was too well developed in her chest area. Also her hair she always kept inside her hoodie so people couldn't tell how long it. Now it was freely cascading down her back like she didn't have a care in the world.

"No way in this god forsaken planet will I wear this outside." Hinata said flat out rejecting it. Kin gave her a look.

"Listen Hinata I would let you go home and get a hoodie out of your closet but you don't have that much time to get to school and my car still isn't fix yet." Kin told her. Hinata sighed and admitted defeat. Kin gave her a hug and watch as she left her house.

"I wish I could be as strong as you Hinata."Kin said as tears started cascading down her face.

Hinata was leaning on Kin's door. She was shaking her head as she heard the cry her friend was letting out. As much as Hinata wanted to go back in there and tell her everything would be okay she couldn't find the strengths to do it. She wasn't that strong as people made her out to be. An image appeared in her mind as a small smile graced her lips. The image was of a man with unruly blond hair. There was red etched into his hair and his red eyes were staring down at her.

"You shouldn't strive to be like me Kin I'm not that strong." She whispered as she pushed herself off of the door, "But he is." And with that last thought she made her way to school as quickly as she could. She had been running for what seems like twenty minutes and looked down at her clock. School was going to start in twenty five minutes and she was still a long distance away from the place. Sighing she picked up her pace when she ran into somebody.

"I'm sorry." She said and was about to leave.

"Hinata Hyuuga shouldn't you be at school…or home?" Somebody asked. She knew that voice from somewhere and when she looked up standing right in front of her was Itachi Uchiha.

"Shouldn't you be somewhere also…like your job perhaps." Hinata replied. Itachi let out a small chuckle.

"Ah yes I was just on my way to my car when you ran into me." He said. She rolled her eyes at him.

"You're making me late for school you know." She said. Itachi made a humming sound.

"Why don't I drive you there?" He asked. Hinata gave him an, are you serious look.

"Didn't you're mother ever tell you not to give strangers rids what makes you think I won't cut you?" Hinata asked raising a brow. This time Itachi did laugh a small laugh.

"High school kids are just so cute." He said mocking her, "I have no doubt that you would cut me but you still need a ride to school and my job is in that direction." Hinata gave him a look. She could take care of herself if he decided to do anything and besides they're in broad daylight if he decided to kidnap her everybody in this area would know who done it. With a sigh, Hinata conceded.

"Fine take me away." She said. Itachi ignored that remark and lead her to his car. Hinata took a couple of blinks before getting inside it and looking at him.

"You bring a car as nice as this to a place like this." She said as he started the car and drove off, "Are you on crack or something. You got a little weed hiding somewhere."

"If I did then I would be fired on the spot." He told her. Hinata gave him a look.

"You're a cop or something." She asked.

"Yes I am actually." He replied. Hinata eyes widen as she tried to scoot farther away from him.

"I swear to god I haven't done anything at all whatsoever no wonder you was so adamant about talking to me." she said. Itachi shook his head as he started laughing.

"One Hinata I'm off the clock two if I was here to arrest you then you would be in a cop car and then the back seat and three, I have no handcuff on me." He said. Hinata nodded her head but was still weary of him.

"Ah here we are." He said, "I would hurry up inside if I were you it looks like class is about to start." Hinata sighed and nodded her head. She climbed out of the car and hurried up inside the school. Just what she needed, if someone were to find out that she was talking to a cop who knows what they would do, even if she said nothing to him about the game. She hurried through the almost empty halls until she came to her classroom. Good thing her perfect memory never failed her. She opened the door and entered only to see everybody staring at her. She blinked and blinked again but they were still staring at her.

"Is there something on my face?" Hinata asks as she cocked her head to the side and glared at them. They all looked away from her pretending to do something else. Rolling her eyes, Hinata made her way to her seat and sat down.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Lunchtime XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Lunchtime XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Lunchtime XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

By lunchtime the news had already spread around the school about how Hinata looks. Along with the news were rumors. Hinata let out a sigh as she entered the lunch room and put her lunch on the table. She opened it and took out an apple when Neji came over to her table with his friends tagging alone. They probably were bored and needed something to do.

"Where were you last night?" He questioned. Hinata blinked.

"Straight to the questions I see." She replied twirling her apple in her hand. She looked up at them. Neji glared at her while the rest looked interested in the conversation.

"Cut the shit Hinata you never came home last night and Hanabi told us you left somewhere around twelve." He said. Hinata rolled her eyes. Leave it to the little girl to rat her out.

"Honestly I don't see how it's your problem." Hinata said as she took a bite out of her apple.

"It is my problem when you're living in my house. If you go out shooting people up then they might target one of us for retaliation." He said. Hinata glared at him while she started to squeeze the apple in her hand.

"I don't go around shooting people up." She hissed out through her teeth yet her face was still calm, "I can't believe you would actually think that less of me." The others turned to look at Neji to see his reaction. He too was getting angry yet was still trying to stay calm. In all actuality Hinata was winning in that battle.

"How am I supposed to know that when you leave the house and come back hours later, honestly you could be doing anything." Neji replied. Hinata grounded her teeth together, calming down as quickly as she got angry, Hinata let out a sigh.

"If you must know I was at a friend's house something happened to her." Hinata said as she started to squeeze the apple a little more. Neji gave her a pointed look.

"And you expect me to believe that." He asked. Hinata glared at him.

"If I was lying I wouldn't have said it." She said with her voice raised. She threw the apple in her hand at him and got up to leave. The others were shocked at her action. They turned to see Neji wiping some of the apple off of him. Sakura was staring after Hinata as she left then turned to look at the apple.

"You made her angry." She stated not looking at any of them.

"No kidding." Tenten said as she helps Neji out. Sakura shook her head.

"No she started squeezing that apple when accused her of shooting people." Sakura said, "You hit home." Neji shrugged his shoulders. So what if he made her mad. It was her fault. And besides she wasn't his probably. If they weren't so blinded then they could see she wasn't the right choice for them.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Hinata XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Hinata XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Hinata XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hinata walked down the hallway minding her own as she thought about what just happened. She sighed. She had gotten upset with Neji and exploded at threw her lunch at him. A frown found its way on her face. Acting childish like isn't going to help anything. She shouldn't have let what he said get to her so much.

"Y-your H-Hinata r-right?" Hinata looked up to see a brown headed girl with brown eyes. She nodded her head giving the girl in front of her a look. The girl blushed and shifted from her foot.

"K-Kurenai-sensei t-told me to c-come get you." She said. Hinata nodded her head and followed her back to Kurenai room. Once there the girl went back to her seat and started working on her work again. Hinata turned to see Kurenai smiling at her. Hinata gave a small smile back but on the inside she was going through different ways she could tell Kurenai about what had happened last night.

"Hinata I was wondering if you can help me and Matsuri out with grading the papers?" Kurenai asked. Hinata gave her a look.

"You wanted me for that?" She answered with a question. Matsuri was watching the scene in front of her as she graded the papers. Kurenai nodded her head to Hinata question. Hinata let out a sigh and shook her head. She went up to the desks and took the papers Kurenai was holding out and went to sit in an empty seat. Hinata took one look at the first paper she picked up and sighed. This wasn't going to take long.

And just like Hinata predicted it didn't take her long to finish the papers she was given to grade. Yeah most of them had more than three answers wrong but the one who didn't had everything right. She was now on her last one and with that a sigh came out of her mouth. Getting up she went over to the other girl and handed it to her.

"Can you do this one and I take the one you have left?" She asked. Matsuri was confused when Hinata came over to ask her that but nodded her head anyway. The whole thing had shocked her. Kurenai asking her to go get Hinata from lunch and the fact that Hinata actually grabbed the paper from Kurenai and graded them. Now she had asked her to trade the paper in her hand.

"Thanks." Hinata said getting the paper and went to sit back in the seat she had once occupied. Matsuri nodded her head even though Hinata was already gone and looked down at the paper and started grading it.

"Well this person made no mistake what so ever." She looked up at the name and was shocked at what she saw. Name: Hyuuga Hinata. Blinking at this she put it back into the stack of papers on her desks and gave it back to Kurenai.

"Thank you Matsuri it looks like you finished earlier then last time." Kurenai said with a smile. Matsuri nodded her head.

"Yeah more people are getting better at your class." She answered in a small voice. Kurenai nodded.

"Are you going to wait here until class start or go somewhere else?" Kurenai inquired.

"I'll stay here." Matsuri answered. She had stolen a look at Hinata as she made her way back to her desks. She never knew Hinata was that smart. Even she the one people always come to when they needed someone to help them with their math (Or for someone to do it for them) had trouble with some of those questions.

"Here Kurenai." Hinata said giving her the work. Kurenai nodded her head and asked her the same questions.

"Would I need my book for your class?' She asked. Kurenai shook her head.

"No you already know the things we are about to go over." She said.

"Then can I use this as a free period?"

"As long as you get the work done." Kurenai said. Hinata nodded her head and with an of course she left real quickly to go and get some materials from her locker before she came back to the classroom.

"I didn't know Matsuri was in this class." She thought as she went to her desks and started her drawing.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Kurenai math class XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Kurenai Math class XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"I am proud of you guys." Kurenai said as she paced back and front of the class. The students were either paying attention or not paying attention. Hinata was still in her drawing not caring who was talking, while Naruto was asleep and Matsuri was actually paying attention.

"When I had gotten the papers back from the people that had graded them I learned that this class has gotten better. Now that that's over with let's start with the new lesson. Turn to page five twenty one." Kurenai said then her eyes landed on the upper right corner of the room.

"Hinata wake Naruto up." She said. Hinata looked up from her picture than smacked Naruto on the back of his head. Naruto shot up and looked around the room.

"I could have sworn this was a chocolate factory." He said getting a few laugh from his classmate. Kurenai rolled her eyes.

"Naruto turn to page five twenty one." She said then went on to tale about the lesson. Hinata shook her head and went back to her drawing.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Gym class XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Gym class XXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Hinata where is your uniform?" Gai asked. Hinata looked around the room seeing everybody stealing looks at her. She sighed. Now she could easily come up with an excuses or she could tell him the truth. Seeing as lying was only for very personal reason, Hinata saw no problem with telling him the truth. Besides he was always shouting about the power of youth.

"Well my friend was having a crises and she had called me so I went over to help her and ended up spending the night." She told him then looked down at her clothes.

"I see you were just showing your powers of youth by helping your friends. I cannot punish you for something that was out of your control and I think there may be and extra gym uniform close to your size let me go see." He shouted then ran off to his office. Hinata shook her head and waited for him to come back. When he did he gave her the gym uniform and told her to get dress.

"Okay class now that Hinata is back I will tell you what we are going to be doing today. WE ARE GOING TO BE RACING." He shouted at them. The class moaned and got up. "Now there will be five teams of four people so pick your people." He said giving them a thumbs up.

Everybody got up and started getting into their groups. Neji and Tenten got together with Ino and Lee while Shion got together with the girls she was talking to since gym class started. That is after Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto turned her down. Hinata was sitting down in her spot sighing as she stood up and looked around the room. Everybody was getting in their group as she stood their staring at them.

"Hey Hinata you want to be in my group?" Sakura asks as she made her way over to the girl in question. Hinata stared at her. She then blinked and blinked again.

"I guess so it's not like their any other team I could join." She said. Sakura choose to ignore that remark and clapped her hands together

"Good now come on so I can formally introduce you to my boyfriend. I already know you know Naruto so there's no need to introduce you to him." The pink haired girl said while dragging Hinata over to her group. Hinata didn't say anything as she was being pulled over to the group. Really there wasn't anything she could think of saying. Once Hinata was over there by the others Sakura introduced her to her boyfriend. Hinata gave him a nod to him and he gave one back to her.

"OKAY GUYS LINE UP SO WE CAN START THE RACE!" Gai shouted. They did as they were told. The first person racing was Naruto. He had to go against Lee on Neji team. A boy with long black hair and blue eyes on someone else team, a girl with short red hair and brown eyes on Shion team, and a boy with no hair on an all boy team. Naruto got into position and waited for Gai to tell them to go. Gai opened his mouth, he took in a deep breath, and then he shouted the words Naruto was waiting to hear. Naruto and Lee shot off once Gai said go and they were both tied for the first. They reached the end of the field where they had to run and was now racing back. The plan was simple. They let the fastest runners run first then once they pulled lead the others would go. Naruto and Lee had just made it back and slapped the next person hand.

It was now Sasuke against Neji. By the time they were far ahead of everybody, the others were just getting started to run. Neji and pulled ahead first before Sasuke was able to catch up to him. Sasuke then pulled ahead of Neji but Neji had caught up soon enough. It was like that throughout the rest of the race. They were now coming to the end of their turn and they got ready to go. Once they got back to their team, Sasuke slapped Sakura on the hand while Neji slapped Ino hand. Sakura and Ino shared a look before they started to run.

"Can you go any faster than that Ino-pig?" Sakura shouted as she started to go faster. Ino glared at her as she too started to get faster.

"You should worry more about you and your giant forehead billboard brow." Ino answered. Sakura gave out a laugh then started to go faster. Ino seeing this try and go even faster. Sakura was still in the lead when she reached the end and started to go back. Unknown to either of them Shion teammate had started to catch up to them. Sakura had slapped Hinata on the hand but before she left to start her run the others spoke to her.

"Hinata don't think that if you lose that we would be made at you." Sakura said while the other nodded their heads. Hinata nodded her head and rolled her eyes. Sakura telling her that was a waste of time and let the others catch up.

"And besides it's not like I'm slow or anything." Hinata thought as she started to run. She ignored the look Shion gave her and passed the girl up effortlessly. The other teams she didn't have to worry about. Now she had to catch up to Tenten who wasn't that far ahead of her but the more time that passes the more it would take to catch up to her. She almost tripped when it dawned on her that she actually wanted to win the race for them. With that realization in mind Hinata started to run faster to reach up to where Tenten was. Tenten had already reached the end of the field when Hinata realized this and was starting on her way back. Hinata reached the field a little over a five seconds after Tenten and turned around to get back to her team. She was now gaining on Tenten. After a few seconds later her team was now shouting for her to hurry up…well Sakura and Naruto were, while Lee on Tenten team was shouting for her to hurry. Hinata was now head to head with Tenten while their teammates were getting closer and closer. Hinata had just pulled ahead and was about to stay in the lead when Tenten tripped and fell to the ground with a startled scream. Hinata quickly slowed down. She gave her teammates an apologetic look before turning back around and stopping in front of Tenten.

"Hey you okay?" She asked looking down at the girl with twin buns. Tenten looked up from her arm to see Hinata inspecting her. Tenten nodded her head and with Hinata help she stood up.

"Yeah I'm fine." The girl answered. Hinata gave her a pointed look.

"Then why are you bleeding on not only your arm but also your leg." She stated while pointing to the objects in questions. Tenten gave a nervous laugh before nodding her head and looking down at the ground like a child that's just been scolded.

"Does anything else hurt?" Hinata questioned. Tenten sighed.

"I think I sprained my ankle." She admitted. Hinata nodded her head and helped Tenten over to Gai.

"Ha I won!" Shion shouted from by her team. Her team was congratulating her as they too made their way over to Gai along with everybody else. Gai shook his head at Shion.

"Shion I am disappointed at you." Gai said with a serious face, "You should have been more empathic to your classmate and helped Tenten out when she fell like Hinata did." He then turned to face the other runners who were running at that time, "That goes for all of you guys."

"Now Hinata can you help Tenten to the nurse office for me." Hinata nodded her head and started leaving when Sakura and Ino caught up with her. She didn't speak to them as they made their way to the nurse office. Then again, how much they talked probably made up for that.

"Oh my, what happened?" One of the nurses asked. The nurse had short black hair with bangs that almost covered her black eyes.

"She fell while running in gym and she might have broken an ankle." Sakura answered. The nurse nodded her head and led them over to one of the beds. Hinata was looking around the room when something in the far corner caught her eyes. Was…was that a pig? Shaking her head Hinata went over to the others and watch as the nurse started to clean the wounds on Tenten.

"Lady Tsunade isn't here today she had a major headache when she woke up and it didn't go away." The nurse said. Hinata raised a brow.

"She had a hangover?" She asked. The nurse turned away from what she was doing to look at Hinata along with the other girls. Hinata blinked at them and asked them a silent what with her eyes.

"And why do you think that…" the nurse trailed off as she tried to put a name with Hinata's face.

"Hinata." The nurse nodded her head.

"And why do you think that Hinata?" Asked the nurse. Hinata shrugged her shoulders.

"Whenever one of the people I hang out with call off from work because they were drunk they would say that they had a major headache that wouldn't go away."

"And besides Lady Tsunade is known for being a notorious drinker and that's where they got that line from." She thought. The nurse said nothing.

"I hope you're wrong. Anyway my names Shizune it's nice to meet you Hinata." She said. Hinata nodded her head as she muttered out 'Likewise', to the nurse. Shizune then stood up and smiled at Tenten.

"Good news Tenten is that your wounds are all clean and none of them should leave a scar. Bad news is that I couldn't really see anything wrong with your ankle that well and that you will have to go to the hospital to get it check out." Tenten nodded her head at this information.

"So do you want to be the one who call home or do you want me to do it?" Shizune asked picking up the phone. Tenten sighed.

"I'll do it." She answered while grabbing the phone from the nurse. Shizune nodded her head then went back to doing the paper work Lady Tsunade left. Sakura, Ino, and even Hinata told Tenten bye before leaving. Sakura adding that they would get her clothes for her.

Hinata went back into the changing room and changed back into her clothes. When she finished she left the school but not before speaking to Sakura for a little while. Once out, Hinata made her way over to Kin house to see how she was doing. Kin was functioning well as far as Hinata could see. She hadn't cried since last night, the house was extra clean, and she was dressed without wrinkles in her cloths. All in all Kin looked fine.

"And she would be to if she wasn't trying so hard to forget." Hinata thought. She has been observing Kin for the last three hours and she notice small things but things nonetheless. She noticed how loud noises would startle her more that usually, that she would flinch whenever Hinata tired to or did touch her, how she didn't want to go outside for any reason Hinata could think of, oh and let's not forget the fact that she kept muttering "It wasn't real it was just a nightmare", under her breath. Really if Hinata wasn't able to see the first three things then last one would have clued her in. Then again if she was as dense as some people then even if Kin came out and said that she wasn't fine would make her blink a few times before she realized what the girl was talking about. That is if she was that dense.

Hinata told Kin that she would drop by later seeing as it was getting a little dark out. She sighed as she slowly made her way from Kin house. Why was she moving so slowly when it was dangerous to be out so late? She was trying to prolong her time away from the Hyuuga household. Why was she doing that? Well contrary to popular belief she wasn't staying away because she was rebelling or anything in the likes. To Hinata rebelling, unless it was for an actual cause, was a waste of time. No, Hinata was staying away because she didn't want to see the looks. The look of anger because she had stayed out all night without saying anything and on a school night, the look of disappointed because she had a curfew and he had expected her to be back before or at the time she was given along with the fact that she left around twelve in the night, and the look of pity because she realized how moving into the Hyuuga household was a big change for her and that it would take time for her to adjust.

Pity, that was one of the few things that would make Hinata scream at people. This wasn't her first time staying out late, it wasn't her first time not coming back to the house because she was taking care of an injured friend that was either being an idiot and nor following her direction or being targeted by someone, and this defiantly would not be her first time getting the looks. Most of what the people say would be the same changing only the big change to a simple change and the Hyuuga household to whomever she was staying with at the time.

So Hinata was prolonging her time from the Hyuuga household if only to avoid those looks. Every time she received those looks she felt as though she was a bad person. That what she was doing was wrong. Hinata knew what she was don't wasn't good and she didn't need to be reminded of that. But why did she continue doing those things when she knew they were bad. Images of Kurenai, Kin, and her mother had entered her mind. Those people were wrong. Just because she was labeled as a delinquent and she was in a gang didn't mean her morals were wrong.

Hinata let out a sigh as she focused on to where her feet had taken her. She was now standing in front of a white house with a brown door. There were flowers under the windows that looked like they needed to be watered a little and the grass looked like it needed to be cut. She was in front of her mother house staring into it. The windows were opened just enough for her to see that there were people invited over and that the music was playing really loudly. Her mother was throwing a party. Hinata stared at the house in confusion as she slowly made her way up the steps and into the door. There weren't a lot of things that confused her but the thoughts racing through her mind right now were part of the few that did.

"Funny." Hinata thought sarcastically confusion still showing in her eyes, "I never cared when it was mother giving me those looks." Hinata opened the door to the house and stepping inside.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Ino Date XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Ino Date XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Ino smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a black dress that showed skin but still made her look modest. Her blond hair was let out of the usual ponytail that she had it in and there was lip gloss on her lips to make then look shiny. Ino frown a little as she realized that she needed something to go with the dress she had on. She went up to her dresser and grabbed a small box that was on it. She pulled out a necklace that was on it and stared at it for a minute. It was her great grandmother before she had given it to her before she passed on.

Hearing her doorbell ring she quickly descended down the stairs and opened the door before her father could. There was a boy with black hair and green eyes staring back at her. He had on a dress shirt and some dress pants as she smiled at her. She smiled up at him and shouted inside the house that she was going out to her father. Smiling a sheepish one at him, she closed the door and followed him to his car. She got into the passenger seat of his car and waited for him to get in and drive off. They pulled up at the restaurant in Konoha city and entered the place.

"Reservation for two under Wilson." Drake said. The teenager standing at the podium nodded his head and showed them to their seats. Once they sat down they picked up their menu and picked out a dish to eat.

"I heard from a friend of mines that the teriyaki chicken was the best." Drake told her. She nodded her head.

"Okay then I'll try that." She said. Drake nodded his head and smiled at her.

"And I'll get the curry." They told the waiter that and started making small talk as they waited for their food to come.

"So tell me Ino what do you plan to be when you get to college?" He asked. Ino blushed a little at being reminded of how young she was.

"Well I was planning on going into journalism like my father." She told him. Drake nodded his head.

"Your father is Inochi Yamanaka?" He questioned. She nodded her head.

"Yeah he's pretty well known from his articles I only hope I could be that good." Ino admitted. Drake smirked at her.

"I sure you'll be even better than him." He told her. She blushed again and look away from him so she could calm herself down.

"So Drake what are your majors in college?" Ino asked.

"I'm majoring in psychology you know why people do the things they do." He answered shrugging the question like he had answered it millions of time. It wasn't until a few minutes later that their food came and they started eating stopping every now and then to say something to the others. When they had finished their food Drake paid for everything and they started to leave when someone had called out for him.

"Amy what are you doing here?" He asked the woman who had came over to them. Amy had long blond hair like Ino and she also had blue eyes. She was wearing a red dress. She blinked when she saw Ino.

"What am I doing here I'm here with my family the question is what are you doing here and who is this girl?" Amy questioned. Drake sighed and was about to speak when Ino spoke up.

"Drake who is this?" She asked. Drake was just about to answer her question when Amy decided to speak.

"I'm his girlfriend who are you?" She question while glaring at her. Ino glared right back at her.

"Well I just so happen to be his date for the night." She said then turned back to face Drake. "Why did you ask me out when you already have a girlfriend?" She questioned. Again, Drake couldn't get the chance to answer because Amy started talking.

"Yeah how come you asked this little girl out when you already have me?" She said looking Ino up and down. That made Ino made.

"Little girl…I'll show you a little girl." She shouted while walking up at Amy. Drake held her back as he sighed. Once Ino calmed down a bit she turned back to face Drake.

"Why did you ask me out?" She asked. Amy nodded her head asking the same question. Drake sighed again.

"Honestly me and Amy broke up and I wanted to go with you because you reminded me of her." He answered. Ino looked at him to Amy smirking face and back to him. She then balled up her fist.

"You bastard." She shouted while punching him in the face. She then turned quickly letting her hair smack him in the face and ran away from them. She ran all the way to the park that was close by her house and sat on the bench. Once there she started crying.

"Ino is that you?" Somebody questioned.

She looked up to see her childhood friends Choji and Shikamaru staring at her. She turned away from them and nodded her head. Choji was a well fed boy and was wearing a grey shirt with a short sleeves green jacket over it. He had on black khaki shorts and his brownish hair was all over the place because of the wind. He sat down on Ino left but didn't say a word and continued eating the chips in his hands. Shikamaru on the other hand had black hair that was in a ponytail that defined gravity. He had on a black fishnet shit with a grey jacket over it and brown khaki pants shorts. He sat down on Ino's right and just like Choji he didn't say a word opting to stare at the clouds that was moving above them. Ino smiled a little as she shared this moment with her childhood friends. They didn't have any classes with each other in school so they couldn't really talk their and it took a little while to get to their house so they couldn't meet like that all the time. All in all Ino cherish the moments she did have with them. And they did the same.

"Thanks you guys." Ino said as she stood up. The others stood up as well and they turned to face each others.

"Hey (Munch) Ino guess (Munch) what?" Choji said. Ino thought for a moment before she replied.

"Both you and Shikamaru schedule got change and now you guys are in some of my classes." Ino answered. Both of them looked at Ino before shaking their heads.

"Only you." Shikamaru said shaking his head. He muttered troublesome woman under his breath so they wouldn't hear him. Ino blinked a little bit before she started screaming and pulling them into a hug.

"Oh my god you guys are in some of my classes now this is so cool." She said running off at the mouth. They let her talk and talk and talk so she could get her mind off of whatever made her down. But it had started to get even darker out. They decided to walk her home. Once they got there they said their goodbyes. Ino walked into her house smiling as she made her way to her room. She still had a smile on her face when her phone started ringing. She picked up and notice she had a new message. Opening up the message tears gathered in her eyes at what it said
