For the Love of Food!

Namaki and Choji

Grumbling, Namaki plopped down on the light blue blanket, grumbling to herself about how the wind rustled her short brown hair and whipped her long brown pigtail tuffs with natural icy-blue ends.

Ino, after a successful mission four man mission, had decided to celebrate their victory. After all, it had been their first B-Ranked mission without the help or guidance of a Jonin or Sensei. That's why she was stuck here, sitting on blanket in the middle of a field waiting for Choji and Shikamaru to show up with the food.

Namaki prayed for the guys to hurry up, after all she was stuck in the middle of nowhere with Ino.

And Ino doesn't know how to keep her mouth shut.

Running her mouth, Ino questioned why she shaved the sides of her head and how she got the blue scalene triangles on her cheeks.

It was driving Namaki over the edge.

To keep herself distracted from Ino's increasingly appealing neck, she reached into her green bag and pulled out a bag of barbeque flavored chips. Her favorite.

Nodding and placing 'ohs' and 'ahs' at the proper place to make it seem like she was listening to Ino ramble about Sasuke's chicken butt hair, Namaki opened the bag and started munching; letting her hazel eyes sweep across the clearing.

She must say, Ino has a good eye. The field was a small clearing the woods. The grass, short and vibrant, highlighted the array of colorful flowers that almost covered the entire space.

She munched thoughtfully, she had only just arrived in the Hidden Leaf Village a few days ago and had already fallen in love with the place. The village was always bustling with people who are willing to help at the drop of a coin.

Namaki smiled, she was definitely going to stick around.

When she stuck her hand in the bag to retrieve another chip, she grabbed nothing but air. A breathy sigh released through her lips as she looked in the supposedly empty bag, making sure she wasn't missing any. At the very bottom, she found a single, perfect chip. Smiling, she reached in and was about to take a bite, forgetting about Ino altogether, when a noise stopped her.

It was a voice yelling something she couldn't make out. Glancing around, her eyes widened when she noticed Choji hurling towards her.

Then, before she knew it, the last of her favorite chips was ripped from her fingers. Wide eyed, Namaki stared at Choji.

"The last chip is the best. It must be savored slowly and precisely to get the full glorious flavor." Choji declared and raised the chip to his mouth.

He was going to eat it.

He was going to eat her chip.

Oh hell no.

Namaki stood and, before he could put the last of her chips in his mouth, she swiped it from his large hands; careful not to break the beautiful thing.

Jumping away from him, she landed catlike in a tree. "This is mine. Not yours. So I get the honor of savoring it." Choji huffed and looked at her with a glare.

Thinking he was going to back down, she smirked and brought the chip up to her mouth, ready to savor the delicious flavor.

Only to have it ripped from her hands once again.

"Choji!" Namaki roared. He stopped in a tree a few meters away. Just wanting her chip back, Namaki gave chase, pursuing him through the forest. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Shikamaru and Ino on the blanket, laughing and enjoying themselves.

Jealousy rose through her throat, all she wanted was to relax and talk with her friends but here she was chasing Choji through the woods because he was being stubborn.

Arguably, she was aswell but that wasn't the point and she just wanted her damn chip!

"I am going to savor this properly!" Her swirled cheeked friend declared. "And only I can savor the beauty to its full potential!"

"Choji!" Namaki pushed herself faster, using her long legs to power her jumps but, no matter how fast she pushed herself, she couldn't catch up with Choji. After what seemed like an eternity, but was probably only five minutes, Namaki gave up. All this for a single chip, it wasn't worth it.

"Fine!" Namaki yelled, making Choji stop and look back at her. "You want it, have it. I'm not chasing you around the woods anymore." Grumbling, Namaki jumped down from the tree and started back to the clearing; leaving Choji to do what he pleases.

"Namaki?" She didn't answer, instead walked on. "Hey!" Choji called out. "Wait up!"

She continued to walk and ignore the adorable boy behind her.

Wait, adorable?

Shaking her head to rid herself of those thoughts, Namaki cursed at herself. She didn't know where those came from.

She must be so tired from chasing the boy around that her brain can't think straight.

Yup, that must be the answer.

Choji landed in front of her, blocking her path.

Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Namaki glared at him. "Yes?"

"Here." He handed her the chip, which, surprisingly, was still in perfect condition.

"Uh… Wha… " Namaki was confused as Choji tentatively grabbed one of her hands and lightly placed the chip on her palm. "Choji?"

"It's yours." He muttered. "So i'm giving it back." He almost seemed bashful. His onyx eyes resting on the forest floor. Even though Choji's stomach often leads him to do rash things, he has a really big heart. Smiling, Namaki took the chip and decided to split it.

After carefully breaking it in half, Namaki handed one of the pieces to Choji. "Here Choji." Namaki smiled. Lifting his eyes, he noticed the piece of the chip that she held out to him.

"Ah," Choji muttered, rubbing the back of his neck. "You didn't need to do that."

Feeling a smile creep across her face, Namaki insisted he take the chip from her. "I want to."

Grinning brightly, Choji took it in his hand. "To friendship." He declared.

"To us." They ate the chip together then walked back to the clearing, arms around eachother talking and laughing like nothing happened.
