Its so hard to tell that one person those three words I long to hear...why?why should this be so hard? I just have to say...I Love You...

Chapter 1 - Women are just plain...troublesome

"This is gonna be one annoying day..."Shikamaru thought to himself as he lazily rose from his bed, sheets folded and pillows alligned. He kept thinking to himself "Why are women just plain...troublesome?I mean why does every man need a woman in his side in Konoha?"and with that thought he groaned. He went out of his bedroom and reached for the door when suddenly, his mother called out... "Shikamaru!The phone!Its for you!". Shikamaru lazily changed his route and started walking towards the phone."Who could this be?It...just so annoying!"He reached for the phone.."hello?Nara Shikamaru here"in a lazy tone. However when he heard that sweet cheerful voice of the girl that has trapped his emotions he felt quite happy..."Ino?Is this you?"he said in amazement."Of course its me you lazy bum!Who else?Anyway I need you to come here in our flowershop now...""That's too...troublesome" he said pretending not to like it but actually is dying to see her.."Mou...fine!hmph!" "NO!NO!I'll...come..."Upon hearing this Ino's cheerful voice came back."Arigato!Ja ne!" And with that,their conversation ended...

As Shikamaru was on his way to Ino's house,he saw that one guy he also wishes to see.."Hey Choji!Still eating barbecue?"He said lazily."You never change Shika...everyday that passes your life you're still the lazy bum Ino and I knew" he said cheerfully as he ate another barbecue."Anyway, where are you going this early?"."Umm...to Ino's place.She called me".Choji was the only one who knew how Shikamaru felt for Ino.Behind that fat attributes is a guy who always lends a hand to Shika and gives helpful advices.Choji smirked"Wow!And i thought you had no plans to tell her!"."QUIET!Someone might hear you!Anyway im going now...see ya!"

Shikamaru arrived in Ino's flower shop."Its the smell of flowers again...whenever im in this place its as if its always spring time seeing how Ino takes care of her flowers that made them this beautiful...I wish she'd take care of me as well...oh!what are you thinking!".When he opened the door he saw one thing he never wants to see..."INO!WHAT HAPPENED?"
