The Forsaken
(Before you read this post, you must know that I am not against the NaruxIno pairing. I strongly support the NaruxSaku pairing, though, so I’ll try to keep stuff between Naruto and Ino to a minimum.)
“Ino, are you sure this is where Hinata and Neji live?” the blond mumbled to his companion as they stood at the gate, waiting to be let in. Naruto was still holding the large vase, shifting the weight from side to side every once in awhile so that he wouldn’t fall over.
“I brought five other arrangements here. Yes, I’m sure.” As she rolled her eyes, Ino thought of Sakura. She was beginning to understand why forehead-girl always complained about her teammate. He was so immature, hyper too. It was amazing that Kakashi-sama and Jiraiya-sennin were actually able to teach him anything. And how Sakura was able to hit him was beyond her. She could barely keep track of him as he rattled on and on about finding the perfect gift for his Sakura-chan.
“But if this is where they live… Why aren’t they coming to let us it??? I still needa get a gift for Sakura-chan!”
“Naruto.”
“A bear! I bet Sakura-chan would like a teddy bear! Whadda you think, Ino?”
“Naruto.”
“Nah. You’re right. How ‘bout… um… how ‘bout a necklace? Girls like shiny things, right?”
“Naruto…”
“No? What about chocolate? You like chocolate, don’t you, I–”
“NARUTO SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!!!!”
Ino couldn’t see the boy’s face but from the way the vase was tipping forwards that Naruto was scared. To think he was a ninja, and he wanted to be Hokage. With five words she had easily silenced him. Pathetic.
“Um… Ino, you’re still gonna help me find a gift, aren’t you?” His fuzzy blond head appeared over the flowers, looking like part of the bouquet and soon added giant blue puppy-dog eyes to his ploy in order win the other blond over.
Though she tried, Ino couldn’t stop herself from laughing at dead-last. “Don’t worry, I’ll help you Naruto-kun.”
‘Did I just…?’
“Yay!” Ino covered her ears as Naruto cupped his hands around his mouth and yelled at the top of his lungs into the Hyuuga compound. “HURRY UP NEJI-TEME!!!!!!!! I NEEDA GO GETTA GIFT FOR SAKURA-CHAN!!!!!!!”
“WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT BEING QUIET, BAKA?!?!?!?”
“OoWwWwWwWw!!!!!!!!! Not nice Inoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!” Naruto was once again being pounded into the ground. The only difference was the girl who was dealing out the beating.
