Chouji, you're okay, right?
Right.
Moving on...



He juuust had to walk so far ahead and trip over the stupid wire.
Then everything was such a mess - bombs were set off, nets flung, boulders released... a whole load of troublesome business, really.

And god, that Ino juuust had to be in MIDDLE of the road, of all places. And I'd specifically said to stay away from the main roads. She juuust had to be stubborn about her leader crap. See what happened?

Anyway. So I had to undertake the tiring responsibility of pulling her out of the way of that giant boulder that was like Chouji on Baika....
And because of the momentum and everything I didn't exactly have time to control my strength. I mean, who would? It's a teammate about to be flattened.

So I pulled (and she was abnormally light, mind. I don't think she's been eating much), and she fell onto me, we rolled a short distance, into the bushes...

Then I realised I was holding something soft. Problem being I don't remember Ino's arm being that soft. First thing that came to mind was... maybe she broke a bone. I mean you know, sometimes they just go limp when that happens... but... after I checked again... it didn't feel like there was any bones...

Shit.
Yea I think I touched what I think I touched. Which was bad. I braced myself for a big whacking, but... it didn't come. All I saw was Ino going quite rigid, and her face was red... the rest of the day's work was... well awkward. Chouji kept asking what was wrong, but... how the hell am I supposed to explain that?? God damn.... I've gotten myself into something troublesome...

But that's not all. Unfortunately.
When we got back to the motel (I know it's cheap, but Chouji ran out of snacks and his stomach was growling so loudly the Rock nin would have heard us half a mile away), the first thing I did was to take a shower. Hot showers always help after a long day.

Chouji and Ino went out to look for dinner, and knowing Chouji, they'd take forever. So I guess I didn't really bother to... lock the door...

I mean, how the hell was I supposed to know Ino would come rushing back with a stomachache?!?!?! Fuckdamnit She just barged in! Hello, sound of water running?!?! FUCK she saw me naked!

...
It was an awkward pause. It seemed like a painful eternity. Before she covered her mouth (thankfully she didn't scream - she's a real banshee sometimes) and slammed the door.

Then we exchanged a few really awkward lines.

I don't think I'll be spending the night in the room.
Think I'll take a walk when I'm done. A really long, long walk.

This mission's a major pain...
