The Roof, Saturday Evening

Ino was up on the roof, swinging her legs off the side, and trying not to think about the fact that she still had to go to talk to her Dad. She'd managed to avoid it by handwavily staying in her room for most of the day, but Ino knew she'd have to see him before he left. Or he wouldn't leave.

So she was brooding about that, and about Shikamaru and Chouji, and trying not to think of anything at all. She wasn't in the best of moods all things considered.

[Specifically for a few people, but also open as a roof is~ ETA: I know what date it is, really. ^^;; ]

Ino stood up, taking care to keep her balance so close to the edge of the roof, and planted her hands on her hips.

"I came here," Ino said viciously, "to get away from you. You're the one that came to visit."

"Yeah, because it's the polite thing to do," Shikamaru said forcefully. "Because we're a team and all that, just like you said before. Or does that only matter when you can twist it around to suit you? I hope being here helps you grow up, Ino." He turned away from both of them. "I'm going back to the hotel," he announced.

"SHUT UP!"

If Chouji had more energy to spare he might actually be all glowing with angry, angry chakra.

"BOTH OF YOU." He glared at each of them. "Can't we just..." Go back to how it was before? His shoulders slumped. "Why can't you guys ever just shut up?"

Chouji's shout made Ino take a startled step back. Her foot met nothing but air and she realized her mistake in moving even as she flailed.

Ino's flailing cost her what little balance she'd had, and fell. Off the roof.

"Ah!"

[identity profile] troublesomemind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
"!?" Shikamaru spun around at the startled noise, just in time to see Ino fall. "Ino!" he shouted, lunging to the edge of the roof on his stomach, and reaching out for her.

[identity profile] hungry-mind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Chouji... hadn't meant for that to happen. He rushed forward too, reaching out for her other side. "Ino!"

Ino? Was still flailing because she'd fallen off the roof.

What kind of a ninja did that?

She reached for their hands, and tried to grasp them.

Shikamaru grabbed one of her hands tightly, gripping it with both of his. It was going to hurt both of them, probably, but better that than Ino hitting the ground.

Provided she didn't drag him down with her. He hadn't thought of that possibility.

Not wth Chouji grabbing her other arm and pulling back. This was when he missed his weight a lot.
intraspective: (Owww)

[personal profile] intraspective 2007-10-21 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
There wasn't much for Ino to do now that they'd caught her except cling to their hands and try not to look down. "Don't you dare let go!" She'd meant it to be scolding, but it came out mostly scared.

[identity profile] troublesomemind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Not planning to," Shikamaru assured her. "Okay, Chouji. We pull on three." He automatically began issuing orders, almost instinctively. "One. Two. Three!"

[identity profile] hungry-mind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
On three, Chouji did what he always did. Listened to Shikamaru and pulled. No more near deaths on this team, thanks.
intraspective: (don't need this)

Ino bit her lip to keep from crying out when they pulled her up - it hurt! - and promptly collasped on the roof. She didn't let go of their hands though. In fact, she tightened her grip on them.

Shikamaru shifted so that the three of them were close together, supporting Ino. Like a team. He reached out to touch Ino's hair, just as a sort of confirmation that she was really there. "Are you okay?" he asked, genuinely concerned.
intraspective: (relax)

[personal profile] intraspective 2007-10-21 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
She closed her eyes and leaned into his touch. "I'm okay." Her voice was still breathless, and she was pale. "I'm okay."

[identity profile] hungry-mind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Chouji flanked him, holding onto her as well. "I'm sorry. Didn't mean to yell."

[identity profile] troublesomemind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Sorry we made you yell, Chouji," Shikamaru apologized, pretty much hugging them both.
intraspective: (only time)

[personal profile] intraspective 2007-10-21 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Hugging sounded pretty good to her. She shook her head, "Sorry I've been... yeah. Sorry."

[identity profile] hungry-mind.livejournal.com 2007-10-21 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
It was a big pile of ninja-y hugging.

And Chouji was totally okay with that. Ignore the growling stomach. "No fighting about stupid things that are in the past."
intraspective: (normal-happy)

[personal profile] intraspective 2007-10-21 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Not stupid." Ino said half-heartedly, getting to her feet and tugging at the boys to do the same, "Let's go to my room." She eyed the roof darkly, "I don't want to be up here anymore."
