This is kinda short but I just wanted to get something out there after all this time.

Chapter Two: Causing Trouble Because of You

It's been a week since her and I were together and a day since we fought. "Let's not be alone anymore" she said the first night, those words continue to replay in my head. I had to see her, I needed more, but when I arrived at her flower shop it was all gone.

"Kiba… we were caught up in the moment. I don't know how I feel right now…I… I'm just so confused and everything's just…"

"Please tell me this isn't because of him" I clenched my jaw. She couldn't still in love with that damned Uchiha.

"He's my first love Kiba…it's not that easy to let go. Plus there's…" She looked at me and paused as if she stopped herself from saying something. "Look I'm just…I don't know."

"You know he's a traitor to our people! He damn near killed ME and our friends in the wake of his arrogance and pride. Yet here we are with you still in love with him. Ridiculous Ino, absolutely ridiculous!"

"Oh like you've been all smiles since Naruto manned up and took Hinata!"

"You know damn well she had eyes for him since we were kids… I didn't even stand a chance."

She huffed. "I don't want to talk about this anymore Kiba. Please leave." She went back to trimming the flowers.

"Fine…have it your way Ino." I turned around and began to walk out of the flower shop.

"You know, it was you who said "I don't want you to love me", how do you expect me to act when you say one thing and do another!?" she yelled.

"What!? Who was it that took their top off and threw it at me? You're just as guilty!"

"Leave!" She yelled.

I slammed the door behind me.

"Come Kiba" he pleaded. "Cheer up buddy it's not the end of the world." Naruto said as he inhaled more ramen.

"I've haven't seen you like this since…" Shikamaru went quiet, our eyes locked.

"Since when?" Naruto asked.

"Since you took Hinata away from me." I said to myself. "It's just a saying Naruto."

"Oh, ok. I mean, of course, I knew that." He continued to eat.

I sighed; I couldn't stop thinking about her. "God damn Ino…" I whispered.

"What about Ino?" Shikamaru inquired.

"Huh?" I was trying to play dumb…

"Hey I got an idea!" Naruto yelled. "Let's go out and have a few drinks tonight? Hinata's going to be out with the girls, so let's do some guys things! Besides weren't we supposed to go out a few days ago."

"Yeah…the storms came and…things came up." I sighed. "So a guy thing? With who?"

"Well there's Shikamaru and me."

Shikamaru cleared his throat. "We could invite Neji and Lee?

"Really Shika? You want to come along? You don't find this "troublesome" at all?"

"Do you not want me too?" he said.

"No, definitely come out tonight." I smiled; I couldn't remember the last time Shikamaru came out with us. Ever since he started dating Temari he was barely around. "I want Lee to come out but…well; you know how he gets when he drinks."

Naruto laughed. "Fuzzy eyebrows won't drink but he'd be a lot of fun to have around!"

"Chouji and Shino are free I'm sure." Shikamaru said.

"Sasuke and Sai of course" Naruto smiled.

Hearing Sai and Sasuke's name made my stomach churn. I know Ino has feelings for Sasuke, but I don't know his feelings for her. Sai is equally as dangerous, he called her "Miss Beautiful" once which she absolutely loved. Yet as much as I hated the idea of them being there,this could be a chance to get some answers.

"Do you not want them to go?" Naruto asked.

"What?"

"You were just glaring at your food. You don't like them do you?" Naruto was hitting the nail on the head.

"Pfft, I could less about those dorks. I'm just not feeling well is all…" Man, this was pathetic.

"I'll buy." He flashed his giant smile.

I couldn't help but smile. "Fine I'm in." I stood up and took some money out of my wallet. "I'll be at the Veterinary till sundown, come to my apt at around then." They agreed and with that I left.
