The young couple were only half way down the stairs when they heard Yoshino's exclamation of "WHAT?!"
"Troublesome." Shikamaru sighed out and Ino bit her lip worriedly. When they got to the bottom, Shikamaru's parents were standing in the center of the living room, arms crossed and stern looks on their faces. 'Shiiit!' Ino thought while praying to Kami it wouldnt go to bad. "What were you two doing up there?!" The female Nara ground out through her teeth. Neither of them answered. "Boy, your mother asked you a question." Shikaku said in a stern, quiet tone. Shikamaru sighed, "...we were kissing." He mumbled out. Ino's face was red as a tomato and she leaned closer to Shikamaru. "Your father said that you had her shirt off." Yoshino stated lowly, "That doesnt sound like just kissing to me. He also said you two were in a very intimate position." Shikamaru closed his eyes and slumped his shoulders even more. "Ino!" his mother growled out, focusing her attention on the young Yamanaka now. "Yes ma'am...?" she answered timidly. "Were you two going to sleep together?"
"No mom, we were not." Shikamaru said tiredly in place of Ino. "I asked Ino, Shikamaru. "
"Were you to just experimenting? Just fooling around? Tell me what was going through you twos heads!?" Yoshino hissed. "We were kissing and...well you know...just...ahh!" Shikamaru sighed exasperatedly. "Dont you act so put out boy! What you were doing up there was innapropriate." Shikaku scolded while shaking his head. "Dad, all I was doing was kissing my girlfriend, okay!" Shikamaru said, his voice getting lower with irritation. "...Girlfriend?" Yoshino asked, looking up from where she had placed her head in her hand. "Yes. Ino is my girlfriend. We were not just fooling around." He muttered and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Since when?" His father asked, surely he would have noticed if his only child was in a relationship, right? "Since two weeks ago." was Shikamaru's clipped answer. "Why didnt you tell us?" his mother asked, her voice softer and filled with suprise. "We just wanted to keep it to our selves for now. The only people who know are Sakura and Chouji..." Ino said quickly, not wanting Yoshino to start yelling again. Shikamaru's parents were quiet, still suprised. "Well...uh, we are going to have to tell your parents Ino." Yoshino said, her voice calmer than before. "...damn" Ino muttered, slumping her head down in defeat. The other woman chuckled lightly. "You know if you tell her dad he will kill me, right?" Shikamaru said, a blank look on his face. Shikaku smirked, his eyes squinting in amusment. "Oh kami...daddy woulnt really hurt you would he?!" Ino said, her voice sounding slightly scared. "I was kidding Ino, he probably will just yell at me and threaten me and all that good stuff. But in worst case scenario, I'll bolt." Shikamaru said, with a wry grin on his face. "But, but daddy wont hurt you...I...he..!" Ino stuttered out. "Ino, calm down, I'll be fine, its not that big of a deal." He said gently, trying to calm his girlfriend.
His parents were watching them while they talked, and were suprised at how upset Ino got at the thought of their son getting hurt. They were even more suprised at how gentle Shikamaru sounded when he talked to her. Usually he was slightly gruff and exasperated like his father. "Well anyways, just...just keep it PG, okay?" Shikaku grumbled out, rubbing his eyes tiredly. "Sure sure." Shikamaru said in his usual bored voice. In the next moment, Yoshino pounced. "So Ino, is my son treating you good?" Shikamaru and Ino blanched at the sudden change in emotions from his mother. "Um...yes, he is." Ino answered a half smile appearing on her face. "Now that you are his girlfriend, it is your job to keep him in line." Yoshino said, giving a nod of her head. "Hahaha, I've been doing that since we were little Mrs. Nara." Ino chuckled out, bumping Shikamaru with her shoulder. "Tch" was the only reply she got from him. "Oh, come on Shika, where would you and Chouji be with out me?" She said teasingly as she flipped her hair. Shikamaru just rolled his eyes with a light smile on his face. "We'd probably have more money, cuz we werent spending it o buy you clothes or whatever else you insist on us buying for you." Ino gasped. "Shikamaru Nara! I need that stuff in order to look better than forehead girl! She thinks she'll beat me? pshhh," Ino scoffed out. Yoshino just laughed, "Oh, dear, I had forgotten about that rivalry you and the young Haruno have!" Ino smiled and let out a giggle. Shikaku suddenly spoke as he remembered something. "Hey, Shikamaru, that reminded me. That girl, Temari I beleive her name was, arrived yesterday and was asking for you. Figured I would tell you so you could find her and see what she wants." Shikamaru winced and his parents looked confused. "Whats wrong dear?" his mother asked, Shikamaru just turned his head to look at Ino, who was sitting next to him, and his parents followed his gaze. Ino was sitting there, hands clenched and a large frown on her face. "Ino, I-" He was cut off. "Damn! SEE Shikamaru, I told you that sand tramp has feelings for you!"
"Ino, she probably just wants to say hi, we are friends after all." He said placatingly. "Dammit Shika! She doesnt just want to say 'hi' I've been around her, she sometimes would hang out with Sakura, Hinata, Tenten and me! She would talk about how fine you were or how yummy you looked! OR how she wanted to get in your pants! YOUR PANTS, SHIKAMARU!. I just..AUGH!" Ino growled out. Shikamaru sighed. "Sand tramp?" Yoshino said amusedly. "...yummy?" Shikaku said, slightly disturbed at the thought of someone describing his son as yummy. "Wait...she wants to 'get in your pants' as in sleep with you?!" Yoshino hissed all of the sudden. "Damn right, as I said, she's a sand tramp!" Ino said, crossing her arms and putting her nose in the air, with Yoshino nodding beside her. "NOTHING is going to happen, okay! Ino, we already talked about this, remember what I said?" Shikamaru said as he leaned back into the sofa, a light blush on his face. "Hm...yes" she mumbled. "Do I need to go get Chouji so you have someone to beat up on?" He said with a smirk. "Why cant I beat up on you?" She said innocently. "Because I am just too nice and lovable to be able to beat up on." He said sarcasticly. "Heehee!" Ino giggled.
"All better?" Shikamaru asked, raising an eyebrow and smiling at her. "I guess, but if that little skank tries to pull a move on you, I want to be the first one to know...I'll kick her all the way back to Suna...AFTER I beat the tar outta her." Ino said with an evil smile. Yoshino was trying to hold in a laugh, but finally it slipped out. "Hahahahaha!" Ino glared and Shikamaru just looked exasperated. "Hey, Ino, what is that on your neck?" Shikaku asked curiously. "My neck? What?" Ino asked looking at Shikamaru for an explanation. He cocked his head and moved her hair aside with his fingers and his eyes momentarily widened. Yoshino sucked in a breath when she saw. "Uh..nothing..." Shikamaru mummbled and brushed her hair back over her neck. "Ino, you have a hickey on your neck." Yoshino said then smirked. "...KAMI DAMMIT SHIKAMARU! AGAIN?!" Ino yelled and Shikamaru just sighed, "Troublesome."

The next day, Ino came down the stairs from her bedroom ans sat at the kitchen table as her mother made breakfast and her father sat sipping his coffe and reading the paper. She yawned loudly and stretched her arms above her head. "Good morning mom, daddy." She said sleepily. "Good morning princess." Inoichi smiled out and continued reading his paper "Morning babygirl." Maya said then a devious look came upon her face. "So, you will never guess what Yoshino told Miki and I yesterday!" Ino froze. "What would that be dear?" Inoichi asked only half interested. "She said Shikaku found Shikamaru upstairs making out with a girl on his bed yesterday. Aparently he had her shirt off too." She smirked at her daughter, who was going slightly pale. "Really?!" Inoichi exclaimed, looking up from his paper. "Thats shocking! What did they do? Who was the girl?"
Maya just leaned against the counter, twilrling her hair. "Well, they made them go downstairs and yelled at them for a while, then finally Shikamaru admitted she was his girl friend of two weeks."
"Wow...so who was the girl?" He asked again. "Oh, you actually know her." Ino's mother chuckled. 'SHIT SHIT FUCK!' Ino screamed in her head, she felt her stomach getting all knotted up, and tried to motion for her mom to stop talking. "Oh, I know her? Hm...The only girls I know that are Shikamaru's age are Ino's friends. So who?" He asked, hoping for a real answer this time. "Well, hm hm hm" Maya started laughing lightly then said "it was your daughter." Inoichi froze. Ino thought she was going to be sick. "Excuse me, I am sorry I think I heard you wrong, Who was it?" Inoichi growled out. "It was your little princess." Maya giggled. Inoichi swung around to face Ino, Intending to ask her if this was true...the look on her pale face was answer enough. He calmly stood, set his coffe down and headed for the door. "Dear, where are you going?" Maya asked, raising a blonde eyebrow. "I am going to have a little talk with the young Nara." He spit out from between his teeth. "NO DADDY!" Ino shouted as he was walking out the door. Ino and Maya ran forward and dragged him back to the kitchen and pushed him into his chair. "Honey, Ino was just as at fault as Shikamaru. Dont you go and threaten that boy!" Maya warned, then turned her gaze to her daughter. "So young lady, what do you have to say?" Ino gulped. "Uhhh...it was just kissing!" Ino exclaimed, waving her hands infront of her face. "Just kissing huh?" Maya asked, tilting her head to the side. "Uh huh." Ino nodded, hoping to get out of this conversation. "Dear, Yoshino said that Shikaku said when he walked in the room, your top was off, Shikamaru was laying on top of you and kissing your neck and you were moaning his name...that doesnt sound like just kissing." Maya frowned. "..." Inoichi was fuming quietly in his seat, trying not to blow up.
"Ino, babygirl, I know you are grown up now, but you have to understand where Yoshino, Shikaku, your father and I are coming from. It is hard to think of the babies we cared for and that depended on us have grown up. It is hard for us to accept that you can make your own choices and are moving on in your life. Ino, I wont stop you from what you are doing, but please be careful. Dont get yourself hurt." Maya said softly, as she placed her hand on her daughters cheek. "No. Absolutly NOT!" Inoichi finally spoke, his words were hard and angry. "Honey, She is a grown woman who can make her own choices." The yamanaka Matriarch said soothingly. "Maya! This is my baby girl, my princess! How can you just expect me to let her go?!" he asked, his face becoming sad. "All parents have to eventually. Our parents did, their parents did and it goes on and on. Dear, it was bound to happen eventually." she said. "But she is only seventeen." He said in one last attempt to stop what was happening. "Daddy, it's not like I am getting married or something. And I am almost 18, just two more months. Shikamaru is turning 18 a day before me, and chouji a day after. We are grown up daddy. You have to see that." Ino told him softly, resting her hand on his. He sighed. "...Princess, the moment that boy hurts you, or does something that you want me to hurt him for, I will. Just tell me and I will track him down and beat the life from him." Inoichi growled, his hands clenching as if around a throat, Ino didnt want to think of who he was imagining.

A week later, it was known around the village of Konohagakure that the Nara clan heir and Yamanaka clan heiress were in a relationship. A few hearts were broken in both boys and girls who had had their eyes on one or the other. Shikamaru had been doing his best to avoid being seen by Temari. So far he had been doing good, and Ino was happy or that. She had been doing her best to avoid Temari as well. Their friends had all congradulated them on getting together. Chouji had fun teasing them about getting caught. While Ino smiled and thanked them Shikamaru just nodded at them as the thought 'troublesome' constantly floated through his mind, but while he thought it was troublesome, he really was glad to be with Ino.
The familys hadnt seen eachother for a week , so the Nara's once again Invited everyone over for breakfast. When the Yamanakas arrived at the house the Akimichis had beaten them their again. "Good morning!" Yoshino smiled at them, let them in and walked them into the living room. "Hey guys!" Chouza greeted them, and every one else exchanged greetings too. "Hey Shika!" Ino chirped as she sat beside him on the couch. "Hey." He smiled at her. She leaned up and pressed a quick kiss on his cheek and winked cutely at him. He just smiled down at her. "Awww!" The three mothers said at the young couples actions, causing them to blush. "How about we see a real kiss!" Miki asked, her hands clasped together infront of her chest. "Oh, yes!" Maya gushed and Yoshino nodded. "No." Shikamaru answered plainly, and Ino just shook her head. "Oh, come on, just one quick one?" Miki begged. "Why do you want to see them kiss so bad? It is just awkward to watch, especially when they start making out and I am in the room." Chouji shivered. Ino leaned over shikamarus lap to smack Chouji in the gut, while shikamaru smacked him on the head. "Shut up you idiot!" She hissed at him. "Ouch! Come on guys! Thats not cool!" Chouji whined. "You deserved it baka!" Shikamaru muttered. Every one else, except Inoichi, laughed at the three of them. "Just one kiss shikamaru, Ino, pleeease!" Maya begged, while Yoshino begged with her eyes. "Parents shouldnt be allowed to use puppy dog eyes!" Ino grumbled and turned torward Shikamaru. "Lets just do this so they will leave us alone."
"Tch" was the only sound he made, then leaned down and softly pressed his lips to hers. Her eyes fluttered closed and two seconds later he pulled away. "Eeee!" The three women squealed, while Shikamaru and Ino blushed. "You better watch yourself, boy." Inoichi growled and narrowed his eyes. His wife frowned at him. "Oh, leave him alone dear!"
"Shikamaru, Ino, You two have to get married someday and give us lots of grand babies!" Yoshino ordered, a large dreamy smile on her face. Shikamaru blanched. Ino choked. "What the hell mom!" The normally stoic boy exclaimed, freaked out. "Oh shikamaru, you just have to! Oh, I can see them already! They would be beautiful!" Yoshino gushed somemore while Maya giggled excitedly. "So uh, whats for breakfast?!" Ino asked quickly, hoping to change the subject. "Oh my! I forgot all about it!" She muttered and ran into the kitchen. Maya, Chouza, Chouji, Shikaku and Miki were laughing. Inoichi was grumbling to himself about good-for-nothing boys going after sweet, innocent girls. Ino and Shikamaru were looking at eachother and thinking the same thing 'Babies...what the hell?!'
