Notes: I'm happy to have joined this community and will start posting stories after a while.
Shikamaru stared at the blonde as he sat across from her as though she had grown three extra heads. "A kid?!" he exclaimed, scowling. "Do you really think I could raise a kid?
Ino frowned, her pupiless blue eyes narrowing. "Shikamaru, you don't have to raise him," she replied. "He's sixteen years old. You just have to feed him, clothe him, put him to sleep at a certain time, and make sure he's happy. It's not that hard."
"Then you take care of him," he replied, frowning now. "You're a woman for god's sake! I make just enough to pay the bills and feed myself. How will I take care of him?" He then shivered slightly. It was cold in the small cafe. He idly wondered how much they spent to keep it cool.
"He's got no where else to go. I can't take care of him because I a model, remember? I travel all over the world. He needs something stable and your it. They would have put him in a foster home, but my dad knew his dad. He asked me to take care of him, but now I'm asking you."
"Knew? Past tense? So the kid's parents are dead?"
"Parent actually. He died of a heart attack a couple weeks ago. I'll bring him over later tonight." She smiled slightly at him.
"I didn't even agree to taking him in!" He glared at her. "Damn it Ino.""Look, I'll pay you fifteen hundred dollars a month. He won't cause you any trouble. The kid's really sweet and kind."
"What's his name?"
"Chouji."
“Fine, but I’m just doing it for the money.” He sighed, staring at the clouds lazily.
“You’ll have to use that money on him or I won’t give it to you each month.” She was now smirking lightly at him.
“What?! Why?”
“You said you had enough to pay the bills and feed yourself. You shouldn’t have a problem with it or him. You never know. You might even make a new friend.” There was a wink in his direction as well as a giggle.
“When are you going to bring him over?”
Ino smiled now, but she looked a bit nervous. “He’s probably cleaning up your home as we speak.”
“WHAT?!!!” Jumping out of his chair, Shikamaru dashed out of the café and ran down the block towards his car, unlocking the door fairly quickly, getting inside. “How in the hell did she get a key to my house?” he muttered to himself as he ignored putting on a seatbelt before driving away, mindful of the speed limit. He didn’t need a ticket right about now.
