[You'll break someday, Naruto. They all do.

Ino is slightly more intrigued that he is making her work for it. By now, usually guys were just falling at her feet trying to win her favor (at least in her opinion). She guesses there is a first time for everything.

She puts her arms around his shoulders (Not bad, Naruto, you've definitely grown up), still giving him that look.]

What do you think?

[It's enough to make him fumble a bit, staring down at her with widened, bright blue eyes.

That look. Geez, she knows what she's doing too, doesn't she? Still not breaking, though it makes him pause. Ino is really close. Like...really.]

Uh.

[He grins, lopsided and nervous, and his hands hover --unsure-- at her waist. Just the tips of his fingers brush the fabric of her top.]

I dunno?

[Her fingers brush the back of his neck lightly, her head tilting to the side ever so slightly. All her moves are practiced, though only a keen eye could tell.]

You can't just make a girl say things like that.

[Not that Ino ever feels embarrassed. That takes humility and shame, two things she lacks. It's really fun to play coy with Naruto, who is so endearingly awkward.]

[A weird tingle starts where she brushes and races down his spine, making him straighten a bit and his body to tense. He's awkward, alright.]

Why not?

It's embarrassing!

[Inquisitive fingers move to touch the tips of his hair casually. How many shades of red can Naruto turn? It's fun to try and find out.]

[Nononono not the hair. His fingers twitch at her sides before they clamp down on her waist and he swallows hard.]

O-Oh?

[Speaking of embarrassing...

What is she even doing?]

Mhhhhm.

[ His reaction is so obvious that Ino has to run her fingers through his hair more fully. ]

Even we like to look cool sometimes.

[OH HOKAGES.......

He shudders, almost violently. Who knew he was so sensitive there? And how did Ino find it out so quickly? Geez. His hands squeeze her sides a bit and he closes his eyes.]

You don't wanna tell me 'cause you wanna look cool?

[...He can't think with her hands in his hair WHY IS SHE DOING THAT.]

You're cool anyways, Ino.

[All she did was touch his hair; he's so sensitive! She doesn't let up yet.

Ino knows weaknesses. This was just dumb luck, though. Naruto is so puppyish, it seems appropriate.]

I bet you say that to all the girls.

[nooooo he's going to melt onto the ground at this rate and start kicking his leg]

N-Nah, just you and Sakura so far, eheheh.

[If she keeps doing that he might come to her house and ask her to do it again, seriously. Just like a puppy.]

Hey, by the way, I guess I did end up carryin' you home. Ah, that's nice.

[ His devotion to the people he cares about -- Sakura, for example -- is another puppyish trait of his. Trusting easily, opening himself up to being hurt. How could someone not like a guy like that?

She let's go of his hair, touching his cheeks gently instead with a grin. ]

So you did! Such a gentleman. I feel like I owe you something in return now. Want me to carry you home next time?

[He almost whines at her stopping but catches himself beforehand as she touches his whiskered cheeks. He's not used to things like this just yet but he only blushes a little now since over the course of the night, he was more prepared. And still drunk. There's that too.]

Nah. I can walk just fine.

[If she can touch him like this then...then..maybe--

Fuck it.

His face moves forward and gently his forehead touches hers while he grins, still blushing.]

Invite me out on a date or somethin'. It'll be fun.

[Ino pretends to mull it over but doesn't let go of his cheeks or move away. She doesn't know why she has such a drunk fascination with touching his face and hair. She's probably just weird. And drunk.]

I don't know, Sakura might beat me up for corrupting you. She definitely wouldn't approve.

[Really, that only makes her want to do it more. As soon as someone tells Ino she can't do something, she is all over it.]

[Definitely weird. But he doesn't move away either.

When she mentions Sakura he goes quiet for a long time and then slowly pulls away, rubbing the back of his head and where she had been running her hands through his fluffy blond spikes.

Too bad Naruto doesn't get the strategy of playing hard to get. Poor thing. He's so jaded by past experiences with girls and he's awkward that he doesn't really understand. GO EASY ON THE POOR THING.]

Heh, guess you're right. Don't want her to beat you up.

[You'd think he'd be used to rejections (that's what he thinks it is) but it still hurts a little. It's even Ino too.]

See you around, Ino. Thanks for hangin' out with me. I had fun tonight!

[She is flabbergasted for a few moments, unsure of how they got from being warm and close to Naruto saying good night.

Is he trying to play the player? Or does he really just have no idea how flirting works? That kicked puppy look on his face says it all and damn it, she is so weak to that look. That was how Sakura had lured her in all those years ago and Naruto has mastered the same "I'm really adorable but no one likes me right now" look that she is such a sucker for.]

Now wait just a second!

[She grabs him by the pockets of his jacket, dragging him back over to her. Ino kisses him before he can protest further.]

[He turns in surprise but not as much as the moment he feels her lips planted on his.

What?

Naruto doesn't kiss back because he doesn't want to, oh no, he doesn't because his brain has decided to short-circuit somewhere between when she had grabbed him and the sensation of Ino's mouth on his. For as long as he doesn't respond, Naruto doesn't think. He just stares at her tightly closed eyes with his wide, wide blue ones.

Ino was kissing him.

Yamanaka Ino was kissing him.

Of her own volition. Drunk volition but still her own! What does he do? Kiss back? Gently lead her inside? Were they going to regret this later? Geez, it's just kissing! He can do kissing. He's done worse (or better?). Besides he had kissed her forehead earlier.

So, finally, he kisses back. It's soft and hesitant like he's not sure if this is right or wrong for a lot of reasons. His hands gently rest on the sides of her waist and squeeze softly, the tips of his fingers curling a bit into her lower back to push her closer.]

[It feels a little bit like that teenage "let's sneak out into the training fields when our senseis aren't watching" kissing (Not that Ino is used to that or anything, no, not at all) but it's pleasant. Warm. Soft. Ino has to deal with a lot of pushy men every day acting like she owed them something so this is a very nice change of pace.

If she was being honest, she would say she really likes being held like this, so carefully and somewhat clumsily. It's sweet and something Ino isn't used to. It's either awkward pre-sex groping or something gross and mission related. Her inebriated mind is making her mushy, she decides, putting her arms around his neck and stroking his hair again.

Ino smiles against his lips before she can help herself at the thought. A short kiss is pressed to the corner of his mouth before pulling away ever so slightly.]

Now what was that about you running home?

[The hair again. If she kept doing that it might be easy to try and fall in love again.

Naruto is grinning a bit stupidly as she pulls away, his hands not leaving her waist at all. He considers kissing her again because he certainly didn't get to respond as much as he'd like and if Ino was willing, he was willing to show her what he can do.]

Eheh, well...

[A hand rubs the back of his head sheepishly and whatever rejection he had felt earlier has all but disappeared.]

Did you want me to tuck you in too or somethin'?

[It takes a moment for Ino to register what Naruto is asking. Surely he means that in the most innocent way possible. Or does he? No, no, he had gotten flustered with just a kiss, he didn't really mean tuck her in in the adult sense. It's so hard to tell with him! It just keeps her guessing which, she supposes, is how she got so interested in the first place.]

Trying to get into my room already?

[She is clearly kidding.]

What? Well, yeah, to...tuck you in?

[That's what he had just said, though it had been teasing. He doesn't get it.

At first.]

[Oh.]

N-Not like that! Geeeeeeeeez, Ecchi-Ino.

Oh pleeeease! This is coming from the guy who has a "sexy" jutsu-- which I might add really needs work-- and spies on girls at the hot springs!

[Ino pokes his cheek.]

Look how embarrassed you're getting, though~!

[Teasing Naruto just may be her new favorite past time.]

[He bats her hand away, frowning and maybe pouting.]

Hey! The sexy jutsu is a real distraction technique! It works!

[No comment about the peeping. He doesn't do it as much as when he was REALLY young. Though, he hasn't had a chance what with training to be Hokage.

No comment about being embarrassed either. Only this;]

Shuddap or I'll make you, pervy girl. Pervy-chan.

[Ino can't really argue distraction techniques. That was what a kunoichi was all about. But really, pig tails? Huge boobs? Come on, Naruto.

Ino laughs in that "Come at me" obnoxious sort of way she is so good at.]

Oh yeah? How? You want to fight right here?

[Though honestly, Ino is still wasted so this will probably turn into a messy wrestling match.]

[He got his inspiration from you, Ino~

Naruto huffs and though a spar would be fun, he's got a better idea to get her to stop flapping that non-stop mouth of hers.

There's a mischievous smirk before he's grabbing her shoulders and hauling her to him to press his mouth to hers. Compared to his firm grip on her, his lips are surprisingly soft and he shows her ALLLL the experience he had gained.

You know, to make him richer and all that. Or whatever she had said.]

[If he ever tells her that, she will wear her hair in pigtails and show him how it's really done, okay. The men of Konoha wouldn't stand a chance.

Well. This is certainly better than drunk fighting, as interesting as that might have been. Make-out-no-jutsu is very effective at shutting her up because it's chilly outside and he's warm and she isn't moving away so fast.

Since his hands are on her shoulders, she sticks her hands in his jacket pockets for leverage.

A bit breathlessly:]

Not bad. You get a 6 out of 10. Respectable but needs improvement.
