Spring Romance
By InNeverland
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Spring had come to Konaha.
The flowers were in bloom again.
The animals were giving birth.
Couples were holding hands and kissing.
Birds were chirping.
The sun was shining.
And Yamanaka Ino was enjoying every minute of it.
For once in her life, she had a date to the Spring Festival.
A Date!
With Sai-kun!
Okay, sure, he was a little strange.
But still.
Hot, nice, and her DATE.
Hee!
Nothing could bring her down today.
Well..except if her dad died.
That would be bad.
Really bad, in fact.
Incredi--
"Why am I thinking about this?" Ino thought. "I must be going crazy."
"--Ino?"
"Huh?" Ino jumped, startled.
She looked over to see Sakura.
"Oh, it's just you. What's up, Forehead?"
"Oh, nothing, Ino-pig." Saskura replied with a huge grin plastered on her face.
Ino raised her eyebrows.
"EEEE! GUESS WHAT!" Sakura suddenly burst out, causing Ino to jump again.
"What?"
"Guess!"
"Just tell me."
"Okay, fine." replied Sakura. "Guess who's agreed to be my date for the festival! Sasuke-kun!"
Ino stood there blankly.
"...Ino?"
"..."
"I thought that you said that you were over him? Don't you like Sai now?"
"..."
"Ino?"
"..."
Sakura was getting annoyed now.
"INO-PIG!"
"..Who did you say you were going with? I must of misheard you." asked a completely puzzled Ino.
"I'm going with Sasuke-kun--"
"...He...But...What?"
"He-- that is to say, Sasuke-kun, is going with me to the Spring Festival." repeated Sakura slowly.
"...He hates social activities!" exclaimed a dumbfounded Ino, "He hates people! And I thought that you were over him too!"
"Um...well..." Sakura looked down at her fidgeting feet. "I lied."
"I--" Ino paused and studied Sakura. "Congratulations. I hope that you have a great time. Really."
Ino smiled at her.
"Are you sure that you're okay?" asked Sakura, concerned.
Ino scoffed at Sakura. "Oh, yeah! I have Sai-kun!"
"Oh, yeah! Sai told me. Congratulations!"
"Yeah! Thank you!" Ino smiled at Sakura again. "Well, I have to get back to the flower shop. See you later!"
Ino waved at Sakura and headed back to work.
AN: That's the 1st chapter. Should I continue or scrap it...?
(If people want me to continue it, it's def. going to be Sasuke/Ino... I'm still trying to decide about Sakura though. Either Lee, Sai, or Naruto.)
Please review! I can take comments, suggestions, and constructive crit...
