"Here ya go, Ino." Naruto handed her a bottle of water.
Ino took a big chug "...You can leave now. I'll grab you the next time I need something moved or whatever."
"...Okay." Naruto said disappointed by the short work day. This wasn't the first time Ino used him and quickly dismissed him and it wouldn't be the last either.
"Get the Hell out of here before my mo--- Oh, welcome back Mom!" Ino's scowl quickly turned into a bright welcoming smile.
Naruto turned around to see Ino's mother. "Hello Mrs. Yamanaka."
"Oh my, hello Naruto. Hello sweetie." Ino's mother quickly noticed the lack of clutter. Connecting the dots, she noticed the sweat dripping from her daughter.
"Sweetie did you clean up everything... by yourself?"
Ino gave her Mom a confident smile "Yes, Mother. I wasn't going to just leave them there in the middle of our store, remember I'm one of the strongest kunoichi there is."
"...So this is why she decided today of all days to work out" Naruto thought to himself, watching Ino's acting skills at work in front of his eyes.
"Thank you so much honey. I really do appreciate it." Ino's mom placed a kiss on her daughters forehead.
"So, Naruto what brings you here? Shopping for a cute girlfriend of yours?"
"Uuumm." Naruto obviously wasn't going to tell her the actual reason.
"Mom don't tease him. He doesn't have a girlfriend, let's not pry into who he's getting flowers for. A dozen red roses right, Naruto?" Ino said subtly taunting and teasing.
"Umm, yes, right. Thanks, Ino." Naruto grabbed the flowers and handed Ino some money.
"Hmm roses huh? Well whoever getting them sure are lucky Naruto. You're as cute as you are strong. Don't work yourself too hard Ino, I'll see you later." Ino's mom said as she walked off.
Ino leaned over next Naruto's ear "I wonder if she'd still think that if she saw you kissing the bottom of my shoe."
Naruto blushed "Ino... please don't tell her or anything."
"Pfft, you think I could tell her? I mean her reaction would be worth it but what? Hey Mom, did you know Naruto gets off on being my bitch? I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face throughout telling her." Naruto didn't have anything to say. It was true.
"We're going to have another shipment here in I think, 3 days. You'll be here at 3 P.M, you better be here early because if you're even a second late no amount of masochism will prepare you for the beating you'll get." Ino said with a no nonsense look.
Naruto knew what Ino was capable of. What she said to her Mother wasn't all a lie, she was arguably the strongest kunoichi in the leaf village. Naruto went home to do the usual with the rest of his day, as his mind drifted he couldn't help but think about Ino's threat... Was she even capable of pushing him too far? ...Should he find out?
