Ino Yamanaka

This happened 4 years ago.

Yuki still lived in the Uchiha Residence, with his mother.

While enjoying pudding, Yuki walked through the streets of Konoha, always with his cheerful smile, back then he was a child, innocent and consequently naive.

Today was a special day, it was his mother's birthday, while looking for a perfect gift for her, he looked towards a certain flower shop.

A small thought flashed through his mind as he saw the beautiful red roses.

(Would you like flowers?)

Deciding to take a look, Yuki entered the store.

At the front desk of the store was a young woman, she had a brown hair, wearing a blue-green suit, emphasizing her calm aura.

There was also a blonde girl with short hair, she had a smile on her face, showing great security and confidence.

"Welcome"

Suddenly the door of the store opened and a pretty boy with black hair entered it.

Ino's eyes lit up at the sight of the boy, the smile on his face and the aura surrounding the boy was something Ino couldn't ignore.

"Wow, what do we have here?"

Ino's mother looked at the boy with interest as she placed a hand on his cheek.

"Excuse me? I'd like to buy some flowers"

"I, I, what would you like to buy?!"

Before the young woman responded, her daughter had spoken.

She looked into her daughter's eyes saw that they were lot up with stars.

(Ino..)

Sighing, she let her daughter take care of the child.

Ino, of course take advantage of this.

"Oh? Or yes, which one would you recommend? I need them for my mother"

"We have a lot of flowers! Come let me show you!" Ino quickly took the boy's hand and didn't mind her request.

Yuki was a little worried about that, but he let thing take their course.

"We have many species! For example these red tulips, they are my favourites, do you know what the tulips mean? They represent perfect love! HEHEHE... I also like these lotus flowers, which represent grace, purity and spirituality, too..."

As Ino continued her long speech, Yuki put a bitter smile, he just came to buy flowers.

Yuki turned his head and looked at the lady, who seeing his gaze avoided him, Yuki felt sad about that.

He just sighed and decided to wait for the girl.

Several hours passed, the day was running out, but Ino was still talking about the flowers, Yuki had. a dead fish look, he had been accompanying this girl for hours.

He just couldn't shut up, he tried many times to interrupt her or leave, but this girl clung to him like a koala, and wouldn't let him go.

"And those are all the flowers we have... Have you already decided for yours?" Ino said with a smile.

Yuki looked at that smile and couldn't help but have a bad thought, he wanted revenge.

"Yes, I have already chosen" Taking three flowers, he quickly took them, afraid that the girl would lecture him again.

"Oh?" Seeing the flowers in the boy's hand, Ino raised her eyebrows, carrying a red rose, a red tulip, and a lotus flower.

"Thanks for your purchase"

Receiving the money from the boy, the lady smiled at Yuki.

"This one is for you, ma'am" Yuki said with an innocent look, giving the red rose to her.

"Oh little..." With a soft look, the lady looked at the boy in front of her.

"You shouldn't, you better give it to your mother"

"No, this is for a woman as pretty as you, please accept it" Shaking his head, Yuki smiled at her and handed her the rose again.

(What a pretty boy)

"Thank you little one" The lady smiled softly at Yuki, she couldn help but have a good taste for the boy.

"Um" Nodding, Yuki turned and handed Ino another.

"This one is for you"

Ino looked somewhat suprised at the boy in front of her, a beautiful red Tulip was handed to her.

With a blank look, Ino accepted the tulip.

"Thanks for everything" Bowing slightly, Yuki left the store.

Still confused by what just happened, Ino looked at her mother, who just smirked at her.

"Huh? Little Ino got a boyfriend? I wonder what you father will say he found out?"

"Huh? Boyfriend?"

"Aren't they your favorites? You know why that means, right?" Pointing to the tulip, the lady looked at her daughter with interest.

Remembering this, Ino's face instantly turned red.

"I'll be right back!" Quickly walking out of the store, Ino decided she had to catch up with the boy.

"Oh! Youth! " With a soft smile, the lady looked at her daughter's back, she just wanted to mess with her daughter a little, although it seems that her daughter took it seriously, however this only made her smile, they were children after all.

"Hey! Wait!"

Fortunately Yuki wasn't far away, which allowed Ino to catch up quickly.

"Hmm?" Tilting his head, Yuki looked curiously at the running girl.

"Yes! I accept! I accept!"

"Hey?"

With a bright smile Ino walked over, which Yuki left wondering.

"I accept to be your girlfriend!" which left Yuki wondering.

"I accept to be your girlfriend!" Quickly hugging Yuki's arm, Ino blushed.

"Huh?" Yuki had a stupid face right now, he didn't know what the hell was going on.

"Wait a minute! Don't hit me so hard!" Trying to pull her arm out, Yuki put strength into his arm.

"Huh? But it's normal for couple to hug each other"

Pouting, Ino glared at Yuki.

"I'm not your boyfriend! So don't hug me so much!"

Shaking his head, Yuki felt a chill go through his body.

"But you confessed to me!"

"I never did such a thing! Besides you're ugly, so that's impossible"

Several veins bulged on Ino's forehead from that.

"What did you say?!" Grabbing Yuki by his neck, Yuki brought her face closer, her gaze was fierce.

"You're ugly! Ugly! Ugly!"

Without showing fear, Yuki also showed a fierce look, he was angry with this girl, she had kept him for hours in that store, and now she wanted him to be her boyfriend?

(Do not even dream about it!)

Tears welled up in Ino's eyes, this is the first time someone had called her that, although she thought this boy was cute, she now thought he was very rude.

"Hmp! You'll see! One day I'll make you absolutely fall in love with me and praise how cute I am!"

Breaking way from Yuki, Ino wiped away the tears that were about to flow.

"In your dreams UGLY! The one who will fall in love will be you! Bleh"

Sticking out his tongue, Yuki took off running, not wanting to waste time with this girl anymore.

"YOU WILL SEE IT! YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY FALL IN LOVE WITH ME!" Holding back her tears, Ino screamed at the op of her lungs, she swore right then and there, that she would absolutely become a beauty.

This kid hurt her pride.

Since then they had been chasing each other over and over again, trying to weaken each other.

Remembering this Yuki smiled bitterly, Ino would definitely be a beauty in the future, he knew from experience.

But remembering his bet, he didn't want to back down.

"You asked me... And you Ino, are you in love with me?" Answering her question with another, Yuki looked at Ino on his arm.

"You asked me the same thing~" However, Ino didn't want to back down either, as she looked at him with a mocking smile.

Yuki sighed at that, buy didn't dislike the idea of making her fall.

It was so much fun after all.
