♥ 6th flower picked [audio]

[floralogy]

[Filtered AWAY from Sakura;]

[The journal post starts with a very cheerful voice of a woman who's obviously enjoying this day. And why wouldn't she?]

Okay, Luceti, so I heard today's Valentine's Day! --You know, that day you give chocolates to someone you love or go on dates and experience romance and--

Well, anyway, instead of hogging all the guys today, why not do some charity work?

[Now if only you can all see her huge grin.]

My best friend here who hasn't had a boyfriend since forever is available and totally single. She's none other than Haruno Sakura.

She's hard to miss, really. Her hair's as pink as the flower she's named after and her forehead's huge. She's nice, never mind her nasty temper, and is pretty smart.

[She snorts.] Of course, I'm smarter but you get the picture.

So, any takers?

[End of Filter;]

In line with my charity work, I'm gonna help all you hopelessly in love gentlemen profess your feelings in a classy way. What better way to do it than with some nicely-arranged bouquets in hand?

[Yes, Ino had thoroughly prepared for this. V-day is like her official holiday or something.]

They're for free, but stock is limited. So, hurry up! I'll have a makeshift stall by the fountain. See you there!

... Not really. But I was just pointin' somethin' out.

[;_;]

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

So, what point are you getting at exactly?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[What was the point again? Oh yeah.] That you'd better watch it that Sakura doesn't find out!

[Filtered] 1/2

[floralogy]

I think I know what I'm doing. [Innocent smile.]

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[Blink.]

Wait, did you just call Sakura without a suffix?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

Huh? Did I? [Naruto thinks for a moment, and realizes that he didn't. He can probably guess why, too.] Guess I've only been doin' it when I'm talkin' to her directly since I started dating Hinata-chan, huh?

[Probably just didn't notice it until now. That's all. Felt weird, though.]

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

Whoa, what? [TOTAL SHOCK HERE.] You just started dating who now?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[OH NO.] Huh!? Did you forget who she is!? [IS THERE AN EXPERIMENT TAMPERING WITH INO'S MEMORY!?]

[Filtered] 1/2

[floralogy]

Of course, I didn't, you idiot! I was just--

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[... surprised.]

... Wow, so you actually realized you love her, huh?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[Okay. Just color Naruto confused. Confused as hell. He's not sure he's following this conversation right now.]

Uh... yeah? But you kinda already knew about this, Ino. [Maybe she hit her head.] We've been going out for awhile. Remember?

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[After that whole incident where she woke up in a complete mess in her equally messy room and she didn't remember what happened, Ino's doubting her memory right now. It's either she really doesn't remember or Naruto's most likely affected by this holiday.]

For how long?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[Wow, this is weird. Maybe there really was some sort of memory-altering experiment going on. Poor Ino.]

You really don't remember? That's weird... [Poor, poor Ino.] Uh... about two months, I think?

[Filtered] 1/2

[floralogy]

[Okay, there's no way she can forget two whole months of staying here. Especially when it involves her comrades' love lives.]

Yeah, weird alright.

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[But enough of that!]

In any case, I'm really glad for you both! [This might be because of the event but it's still good news.]

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[NO, INO. HE AIN'T DROPPING THIS AFTER HEARING THAT.]

What the hell's so weird about it!?

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[OH C'MON NARUTO.]

Oh, nothing. [Innocent smile.] I just never thought you'll like Hinata that way when you were obviously crushing on my best friend before.

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[askfdhgofhjwonfis]

Th-That was awhile ago, okay!?

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

It better be. I don't want you two-timing, you know.

[Change subject--] How long was this a while ago, anyway?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

I'd never two-time on her!

[It's weird to be quizzed by Ino on this. Especially when she should know this stuff already. Damn experiments.]

A couple of months before I started datin' Hinata-chan!

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

I see.

[Hmm hmmm. It's just but natural to be quizzed about this, Naruto. This is like the breakthrough of the century, you know.]

How's Hinata as a girlfriend?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

[This is a question he can get excited about answering. Really excited.]

Oh, oh, the best! She's always doing really cool stuff for me when I'm not expectin' it, and she's still really shy and stuff! It's really cute!

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

[Oh, Naruto. That enthusiasm makes her smirk and shake her head in amusement. Deep inside, Ino's happy for the shy girl. Every girl deserves romance in their lives.]

About time you realized this. You do know she had always admired you ever since we were kids, right?

[Filtered]

[jinchuuriki]

Uh... I didn't really figure it out 'till recently. [Y'know, after he pieced together the pieces of the puzzle with how she acts around him compared to how she acted around him in the past couple of years.]

[Filtered]

[floralogy]

I wasn't really surprised. [She snorts. Not really the biggest news... Actually, it wasn't even news considering how dumb and thickheaded he can get. Still, at least, he figured it out. There's hope for him yet.]
