"Ino you look beautiful with that dress, but.. this is your mom's wedding.."

"Yeah, so?"

"Well, aren't you trying too hard to impress someone. And is that someone particular the groom's son?"

I stare at my reflection through an enormous mirror with my pink hair best friend staring back at me. I look at my dress. It's a tight mini red dress that shows a lot of my cleavage as the dress goes mid way through my thighs. I half smile, admiring how the dress looks on me. I turn back, facing the pink hair. "I sort of like it."

She chuckled adding a sarcasm into it as she flips her short hair off her shoulders. "You only like it because it shows off your boobs."

I pout because it's true. "Fine. I won't buy this one." I said, looking back at my reflection for the last time before heading towards one of the changing rooms. I shut the door as I begin stripping off my clothes. "Sakura?" I said which seemed more like a serious tone. She startled acting upon my sudden voice turnover. "What is it?" I sat down on a chair, still in my fitting room. "I don't think I can do it.." I stated as tears started forming in my eyes. I bend my head down as my shoulders begin to tremble. "Damn it. Screw all this, honestly."I cursed under my breath.

I heard footsteps coming towards the door as it opened to reveal my best friend. She sat down next to me, caressing my hair as comfort. "Ino listen to me." She pushed back my bangs as she tugs them behind my ear. I look at her as she continues. "I know you're scared. But your mom's getting married.." She proclaimed as she wipes the tears off my face. "Tomorrow, Minato Uzumaki will be your legal stepfather and.." She stopped at first, not sure how to finish the sentence.

So before she can speak again, I interrupted her, "And my ex-boyfriend will be my stepbrother."

I shut the car door as I straighten out my shirt. I watched as Sakura pulled down the window. I smiled at her, grateful for having her . "Thanks for the ride.." I said. "Thanks for everything, really." I admitted as she smirked.

"Hey. I'm here for you. Always."

"You sure you can't make it to the wedding?" I asked.

She pouted as she twisted her key, ready to leave. "Nah. My parents wants me to visit my grandparents." She claimed, sulking. "I'll see you at school. Good luck with everything!" She responded as I watched her leave from the front porch of my house.

I began walking towards my house as I grab the keys from my purse. I unlocked the door as I hear my dog barking from inside. As I opened the door, I was greeted with none other than a fluffy cutie. I smiled as I crouched down, petting the small white dog. "Hi there Poochie." I said, ruffling him everywhere. I got up as I feel Poochie following behind me. "Mom?" I called out for her, heading towards the kitchen.

"Ino is that you?" I heard my mom's voice from the living room.

I rolled my eyes as I open the fridge, looking for something to eat. "Who else would it be?" I replied, shutting the door.

I walked towards the couch as I saw the tv on. "Hey mom, I-.." I stopped as I saw someone else with her on the couch. I smiled as my mom was with her soon to be husband. "Oh hey Minato." I greeted him, kissing him on the forehead. He had on a bright smile with his eyes glimmering so astonishing. Suddenly, he popped inside my head.

"Hello again, Ino." He announced as his face started fading away in my head. "How are you?" He questioned, taking away his arm from my mom's shoulder.

"I'm actually great, thank you." I lied as I pulled onto my ponytail. "Ready for tomorrow?" I asked him.

"I've been ready." He assured, smiling at my mom next to him. He wrapped her hands to his.

I awed at the little moment they're having. I looked around the room, wondering if he's here.. I turned back to the couple. "Um, is Naruto not here?" I asked nervously. I haven't seen him since that specific day..

Minato shot up from the couch. "Oh I asked him to come but he said he wasn't feeling good." He exclaimed.

Making up an excuse again, huh? But I can't blame him.

"Oh." It's all I can really say, I mean there's not much to say. I'm really glad that his dad and my mom didn't knew that we dated. So glad..

"He said hi by the way." I heard him say as I began to walk towards my room.

Hi.

"INO SOMEONE'S BEEN RINGING THE DOOR BELL FOR 3 HOURS! ANSWER IT!"

I groaned as I hear my mom screaming all the way from her room. Clearly, who ever was at the door was ringing the bell for 3 minutes. She's so nervous, oh god. I settled my curling iron on the counter of my bathroom as I put on a v-neck because I was just wearing a bra. I put on some shorts as I rushed downstairs, making my way to the front door.

I open the door as a raven-hair appeared at my door, leaning on the wall. I smirked, crossing my arms over my chest. "My my, who do we have here?"

Ladies and gentlemen. Standing in front of my house is the dreamy raven-hair that every girl wants. His hair looked different, I could tell. I mean, his hair wasn't hiding his flawless face, it was actually framing his face perfectly. He was wearing a black tuxedo that looked really good on him. It was so breathtaking just checking him out. "You really went all out on this, is that right Sasuke?" I stated as I turned back around, heading to my room.

I heard the door closed as he followed behind me. "I need your help." I heard him say."

I raised an eyebrow, "The great all mighty Uchiha, asking me for help?" I snorted. "That's a first." I walked to my room, opening the door as I heard him coming in, closing it. I sat down on my bed. "What's up?" I asked.

At first, he looked at me and then he turned away. His face turned slightly red as he tired to cover it with his arm. Instead of saying anything, he grabbed something in his pocket as he handed me a black tie. When I first saw it, I started to laugh. Loud. "Oh my god. Buhahaha." Im laughing so hard that I didn't knew I could laugh this much. "Are you freakin kidding me? Oh god, I can't. I can't." I said, still laughing. I saw him rolled his eyes as he waited for me to stop laughing.

So he waited and he was becoming to be very impatient with me as he turned to the door. "Bye." He grumbled.

I chuckled, "Hold on, Sasuke." I said, grabbing his arm, stopping him from leaving. "I'll tie it." I got up from bed still holding on to his arm, not trusting him at all. "Turn around, silly." He did as I told. I looked at his eyes and then focused on the target. "Can't believe you don't know how to tie a tie." I muttered, smirking.

"Shut up." He responded as I felt his hot breath against me.

My hands began to slightly shake. I just realized how much taller he was. I finished tying his tie as I stepped back inches away from him. I scratched the back of my head. "So yeah, I need to finish doing my hair." I said, making an excuse to get ready. "Make yourself at home but don't go through my drawers." I said, warning him.

He nodded as I walked back to my bathroom, leaving the door open.

I like hanging with Sasuke. When I first met him, he was this mysterious guy that didn't really talk much. He was the opposite of me and I think that's why I stick around him. Because I need someone who wasn't like me, but someone that can teach me the wonders of peacefulness and relaxation. Sasuke taught me those things. I considered him as the most important person in life despite the rumors I hear from school.

"Are you dating Sasuke?"

"You and Sasuke look cute together."

I tell him everything more than I tell to Sakura because he's just different. So basically, he knows about what went down with Naruto and I. I mean, he was the first person I turned to when everything went crashing down. He was there for me.

He's my best friend.

"You wear thongs?" His voice interrupted my thoughts. "Didn't know this little thing can even fit you." He added, chuckling to himself.

My best friend everyone.

I rolled my eyes as I began curling pieces of my hair. "I told you not to go through my drawers."

"I got bored."

"Or you're just a perv."

"I'm a guy aren't I?"

"Here I thought you were gay." I stated, laughing.

I finished curling my hair as I moved on to my makeup. I heard him shuffling onto my bed, probably taking a quick nap before the big day starts. I usually just put on mascara and a tiny bit of blush, but since I'm going somewhere important, I have to put more than that. I put on some eye shadow, eyeliner, lipstick, and a whole bunch that I know how to actually put on.

After I finished applying makeup to my face, I looked at my reflection. Everything that I see was different. My hair looks beautiful. My face looks shimmering. To finish this look off, the dress. I looked behind me as my dress was hanging. I didn't actually tried this on yesterday due to the fact that I was lazy and that Sakura was the one who picked it out so why not? I closed the door as I began stripping my clothes off. I put the dress over my head as I straighten it out. It looks really pretty. It was a formal light green/blue dress that goes mid way to my thighs. It showed a little of my cleavage as the dress outlined my body astounding.

I noticed there was zipper that I have to zip up but I couldn't reach it because it was on my back and I'm not flexible. I grumbled, giving up. "Sasuke?"

I heard him groggily groaned, yawning from his sleep.

I stepped out from the bathroom. "Can you zip this up?" I asked pointing towards my back.

His eyes widen, noticing my existence in the room. "Okay." He stammered.

I turned around as I moved my hair away. I realized that he could see the back of my bra. My ears started burning from embarrassment. I felt him behind me so close that I could feel his chest against my back. I felt his fingertips, grabbing the zipper. He finally pulled it up quick.

"Thanks." I mumbled, turning around anxiously. I faced him as his eyes were focused on mine.

Suddenly, his eyes weren't on mine, but instead he was concentrated below my eyes. I couldn't tell what he was feeling because his facial expression stayed the same. He looked back at me as he half smiled at me which startled me. "Damn Ino. Who are you trying to impress?" He stated as his eyes trailed around my body. I raised an eyebrow, not expecting that to come out of his mouth.

"Was that a compliment?"

He snorted, "No."

"Well then." I said, looking down on the floor as I stood there motionless.

I heard him sigh. "You look stunning." He blurted so beautifully.

I shot back up.

"That's a compliment."

"Ino!" My mom yelled out for me somewhere across the house.

"Yeah mom?" I asked loudly, still staring at the raven-hair.

"Come downstairs, it's time to go."

"Right.." I whispered to myself. I saw Sasuke smiled at me as a comfort. I smiled back at him before getting my purse and heading downstairs. I saw my mom with a guy whose wearing a tux also and a hat, probably her driver. My eyes widen right when I saw my mom wearing her wedding dress. I smiled widely at her as I rushed towards her, hugging her tightly. "Mom you're flawless."

I felt her arms around my body. "Thank you honey." She whispered to my ear as she pulled away from me. "Oh Sasuke, didn't know you were here." She exclaimed as she walked towards the closet, grabbing a pair of white heels.

"You look lovely Ms. Yamanaka." He complimented her.

She smiled back at him and thanked him. She turned her attention towards me. "Ino, you don't mind getting a ride with Sasuke?"

I looked back at him and then at her. "Sure. I don't mind."

"Ino, we're here." Sasuke's voice cut off my thoughts. He must be saying my name many times because he's looking at me with such a worried face. "You okay?" He asked worriedly, leaning towards me to check if I am okay.

Am I okay? I don't know.

"Im fine." I lied as I unbuckled my seatbelt. I opened the door, but I felt a warm hand on my arm, stopping me from leaving. I rolled my eyes as I didn't bothered to look at him. "I said I'm fine."

I heard him sigh as he let go of my arm. By the time I'm free from his hold, I began opening the door and shutting it when I'm out. I waited for him to get out of the car.

Just then, I heard a ring tone from my purse. I took out my phone and answered it.

"Hey Sakura." I greeted as I started to walk back and forth.

"Ino! Just wanna make sure if you're alright." She sounded so serious.

I rolled my eyes, still walking around but still close to the car. "You're like the second person who told me that today." I retorted, twisting my curls, still walking around. I almost tripped because these heels are insane. I continued, "It's honestly getting annoying."

She chuckled, "Let me guess. Sasuke?"

"Exactly."

"We're just really worried about you."

I smiled of her words. "Yeah, yeah I know." I responded. I began to walk back to the car where Sasuke is. "It's just that-.." I stopped talking. My heart begins to beat. Like really fast that I think if someone was standing right next to me, they can actually hear it.

"Ino?" Her voice draws me back to reality.

I clutched my phone anxiously as I held it with my other hand, not sure if I can trust myself from letting it fall. "Sakura I have to go now." I proclaimed, hanging up on her as I out my phone inside my purse. I was standing not too far from Sasuke's car. I see him leaning towards his car, talking to a spiky blonde next to him.

He's here.

I haven't seen him since the breakup and that was literally a month ago, I think. Just seeing him again, makes me want to jump at him, but I can't. I could tell that he got a haircut. His hair is neatly spiked up as his black tuxedo outlined his body perfectly. Overall, he is well-dressed. His lips are slightly full: the kind that end in a cute little smirk at the corners. The rays of sun highlight the dimples in his cheeks and chin.

I saw him laughed as the raven-hair told him something funny. I began to walked towards them, taking little steps. Once I'm nearly close to them, that's when notices me.

The spiky blonde glanced at me. His eyes were full of surprises as he turned his attention towards me. I missed the way he looked at me. It made me feel infinite and still feeling this way at the moment. His lips began to curve, forming a smile that is welcoming and felt like home to me. That goddamn smile gets me every time. "Hey." He said with such a soothing voice.

I remember when I saw him for the first time. It was exactly like this.

"Hi Naruto."
