Chapter One: "Dreaming Of You"

Late at night when all the world is sleeping

I stay up and think of you and

I wish on a star that somewhere you were

Thinking of me too...

The sky showed its darkness and the moon let it's beauty be seen by everyone who is still awake.

Yamanaka Ino, a girl of 12 was attracted to its beauty. Her blonde hair was as usual in a ponytail, which made her cute. Her eyes steadied on the moon. Suddenly a picture of a handsome guy with onyx eyes, black hair and cute smile began to play tricks on her mind. It made her blush and at the same time melted her heart.

"Oh man..." she said, tightening her grip on her pillow. "I can't get him out of my mind!"

She tried to sleep but the picture still revolves around her head, which prevents her from sleeping.

"I wish he is also thinking of me..." she thought with a smile, "...though its impossible."

I'm dreaming of you tonight

Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight

And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be

Than here in my room dreaming about you and me...

Ino turned around the other side of the bed. She was still looking at the moon, letting her mind be tricked by her own imagination.

"Sasuke..." she murmured, "Why am I this crazy? I'm so addicted to you...what do you have that made me so...so...in love to you?"

She closed her eyes and started to dream about her with Sasuke.

-------

While Ino was walking down the alley she saw Sasuke. When she was about to say hello, Sasuke wrapped his arms around her and gave her an embrace that was so tight, as if he won't let her go. Sasuke was about to kiss her...their lips were just centimeters away from each other...slowly their lips come closer and closer when...

"INO!!! Wake up now will ya?" a voice shouted.

Ino felt someone tapped her in the arm that caused her to leave her dreamland. She sat up, rubbing her eyes. She looked up to see who woke her up and saw her teammate Shikamaru. She angrily grabbed her pillow and glared at her friend.

Shikamaru backed away. He was about to run when Ino threw the pillow at him.

"WHO TOLD YOU TO WAKE ME UP IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DREAM?" Ino shouted at the top of her lungs. "You – You just ruined it."

"What? Come on we'll be late for school." Shikamaru said, scratching his head where Ino hit him.

Ino walks towards him, her eyes were burning with anger.

"I'm gonna kill you for that!" Ino yelled and began to pull Shikamaru's hair.

"Ehy, stop!" he squealed in pain, "Ouch – hey my hair!!!"

"I HATE YOU SHIKAMARU!!" Ino yelled again, not stopping on pulling Shikamaru's hair.

"Er – what -- what did I do?" he asked, his voice was shaking.

Ino stopped from pulling his hair and turned her back to him.

"You just simply ruined my kiss with Sasuke." Ino said, frowning, "And thanks for that!"

Shikamaru began to laugh hard, holding his belly.

"Kiss-Ki-Kiss with Sa-Sa-Sasuke?" he laughed.

Ino turned around, this time both her hands were clenched.

Shikamaru cleared his throat and force a smile.

"Er- I'm not laughing! Na-ah!!!" Shikamaru said shaking his head.

With no reply Ino gave him a punch that made him out of balance.

-------

A blonde boy in an orange vest was just finished eating his twenty-fifth bowl of ramen in Ichiraku Ramen Shop. The blonde guy was known to be Uzumaki Naruto. He eats chaotically that his cute face was full of dirt.

"Waaahhh..." he yawned, stretching both his arms. "It's really delicious."

A pink haired girl who was sitting beside him in the counter was used to his way of eating. Everyone in the shop is all looking at the blonde guy, all bewildered.

"You finish Sakura? I think we better get going..."Naruto said with a smile. "You don't wanna be late for school eh?"

Haruno Sakura, the girl beside him frowned.

"Good thing you remember to stop eating!" she shouted.

Naruto jumped from his seat and began to walk for the exit as if he didn't heard anything at all.

"And where do you think you're going?" Sakura asked, pulling his orange vest. "Whose gonna pay the bills?"

Naruto turned around and made a tricky grin.

"You." He replied.

"NARUTO?" Sakura shouted, causing the ramen shop to shake a bit. "YOU ATE TOO MUCH...I CAN"T AFFORD TO PAY THEM ALL!!!"

------

Ino and Shikamaru were walking down the sidewalks when they saw Akimichi Chouji sitting in a green bench, beside was a green, thin post in which a lamp was hanging. He was a very fat boy with red circular paint on his cheeks. He was holding two different bags of chips on both his hands. He was eating them so fast. His plump face was full of dirt.

"What took cha bot of ya sho long?" he asked, his mouth was so full of chips.

Ino sat down beside him, arms crossed.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked again.

"Oh come on...she won't tell you." Shikamaru said. "Let's just go!"

But before any of them make a move a familiar figure passed before them.

He was wearing a blue shirt paired with white shorts.

"Sasuke..." Ino whispered, excitedly.

She can't control her self that she immediately stood up and said "Hello Sasuke!"

But he neglected her when suddenly a familiar voice called him it was Haruno Sakura.

I wonder if you ever see me

And I wonder if you know I'm here

If you looked in my eyes

Would you see what's inside?

Would you even care?

Shikamaru wanted to tease Ino the way Sasuke treated her. But even him can feel how it hurts her.

"Sasuke!!!" Naruto's voice echoed in the alley.

Sakura was running towards Sasuke and gave him a hug. Sasuke smiled and pushed her gently away.

Ino could tell how happy Sasuke was.

I just wanna hold you close but so far

All I have are dreams of you

So I wait for the day to take the courage

To say how much I love you...

Yes I do.

Naruto walked in front team 10.

"Hello Ino! Hello Shikamaru! Hello Chouji!" he greeted them with a big, big smile.

Sakura turned around and was astonished to see Ino.

"Oh, I didn't see you Ino-pig!" she said, raising her eyebrows.

"Oh yeah?" Ino hollered back in a harsh tone. "I didn't see you either, forehead girl."

Sasuke and Naruto started to walk, leaving Sakura, who was having an eye-to-eye duel with Ino.

"Look like they already left you Sakura." Chouji said pointing at Sasuke's direction.

Sakura turned around and ran after them.

"Looks like your prince charming didn't see you, eh?" Chouji told Ino with a teasing smile.

"Really? How come I didn't notice YOU FAT COW!" Ino shouted as she gave Chouji a punch.

Shikamaru smiled and gave Chouji a hand to help him stand up.

"Bad timing." He said to him.

-------

Outside the training grounds, you will see the genins of Ninja Academy in four straight lines.

Iruka-sensie walked slowly in front of his class.

"Ehem!" he said, clearing his throat. "We still need to wait for Kakashi before we start."

Naruto, who was in front of the line began to laugh. He tapped a blue haired girl beside him. She had pale skin and her eyes were plain light blue. She looks so cute and simple.

"Look Hinata..." Naruto said pointing at their sensei's face. "Hmph..."

Hyuuga Hinata blushed and at the same time giggled.

Iruka noticed them laughing.

"What's so funny big mouth?" Iruka said to Naruto, one hand on his hip.

Naruto put both his hands on his mouth, trying to control his self from laughing.

"NARUTO?" Iruka shouted, his face looked so embarrassed. "Spit it out!"

"Sensei," Hinata's very soft and calm voice broke in. "You have this kiss mark on your cheek."

Before Iruka could reply everyone laughed except Sasuke and a red haired boy who looks so serious.

"Wha-what the..." Iruka exclaimed, rubbing his cheeks with his sleeves. "Uzumaki Naruto...you did these didn't you?"

Naruto shrugged.

"Are you blaming me?" Naruto inquired angrily. He was pointing his self with his thumb. "Of course not, sir."

"Okay...please...everyone can I have all your attention please?" Iruka said, raising both his hands as if he'd surrendered. "By the way, Yamanaka Ino and Uchiha Sasuke please come forward."

Ino was surprised to be called with Sasuke.

"Me?" she asked Shikamaru.

"Is there anyone else around here have a name like yours?" Shikamaru replied, frowning.

Ino walked in front, nervously. Sasuke went beside her.

"What is it Iruka-sensei?" Ino inquired.

"We don't have much time to waste...I would like you two to look for Kakashi-sensei." Iruka said.

"Us?" Ino asked excitedly.

"Yes...the both of you." Iruka replied. "And please be in a hurry...we still have to break a news to everyone."

"News..." Sasuke repeated in his mind. He got intrigued but said nothing.

Suddenly Haruno Sakura stamped her feet.

"I PROTEST!" she shouted, attracting everyone. "Ino and Sasuke are not teammates sir...and I think that..."

"Sorry Sakura but we have no much time...go now you two." Iruka commanded.

Sakura frowned and crossed her arms.

"Oh my gosh...am I dreaming?" Ino thought as the two of them ran down the streets. "This is just like what I've dreamed this morning."
