Sex, Shame, & Tears

Summary: My adaptation of the Mexican movie with the same title, but with my own twist. Unfixable marriages, infidelity, confused feelings, love, coldness, & much more.

Sasuke has too much stuff to do to listen to his nagging wife all day. Shikamaru is too caught up in his own little worlds to pay much attention to his needy girlfriend. What will happen when two people enter their lives?

I fixed all the errors I could find, or at least tried. I admit I was lazy and used google translate before going through and translating it myself. But it won't happen again, I promise.

But if anybody wants to be my beta since I can't pick out every single error, then by all means go for it : )

Sometimes I just can't, I get so cold and I'm not there.. .

"Shikamaru! Get down here and help me in this moment!" Shouts an exasperated blonde from below. "I'm getting sick of his lazyass"

"Hey, Miss, where do we put these things?" A man asked the blonde, before seeing her exquisite dress that almost leaves nothing to the imagination.

"Oh, on the 3rd floor, number 304." She replied, before following them to their condo.

When she enters what she sees is nothing out of the ordinary in their daily lives. There sitting on a chair is her "boyfriend," playing chess and reviewing papers, which are supposed to be his work.

She pays him no mind and starts to direct the men into the kitchen, when she realizes how handsome and muscular one of them is. "Hey, you have some very nice, muscular arms." she remarks.

"Well thanks, that's what I do" he replies with a wink.

She returns to the living room and bends over to fix something on the sofa. Seconds after, she feels someone is watching her, and turns around to see her husband looking at her curiously.

"What are you looking at, Shika?" She asks.

"Your ass." He simply replied.

"My ass? And why is that? "She asks, flirtatiously.

"It's all out there, cover it up, Temari." He replies loosely.

On hearing this the blonde gets dangerously close to the black-haired male. "Don't tell me you don't like my ass?" She asks while putting her boyfriend's hands on her thighs, moving them up. As she leans in to kiss him, he scoots his face away.

"What a drag, there are people in the house, and I'm busy, woman." He tells her.

"Ma'am, we are leaving." says one of the men.

"Oh excuse me, I didn't even introduce you. He is Shikamaru, and he is .. well he is he. Well thanks for everything." She then escorts them to the door, and gives one last look at the muscular man that looked at herlustfully.

"Why do you not look at me like that, Shikamaru?" She asks herself.

When she goes back into the apartment, she runs into a pensive Shikamaru, who is contemplating the window. "What are you so thoughtful about?" Asks the blonde.

"About how women are so problematic. I have a new theory. The more we admire them, the less we desire them. Women these days are a blow to the ego of men, it's detrimental, they are like castrators to the pride of men." He explains. Temari gives him a look between confusion and anger. Which causes a giggle to escape the pinneaple-haired man.

"What are you laughing at, lazy ass?" She yells.

"Nothing, castrator" He replies.

"Fine, Impotent baka!" shouts the blonde before leaving the room, slamming the door shut.

They both know that it's not good to talk to each other like that. The two know that they should be trying harder to make their relationship work and bring it to what it once was years ago. But do they do it? No.

"What else does this woman want? I gave her a nice car, apartment, clothes, jewelry, whatever she wants, she has. Can I not be left alone for a moment?" The Nara asks himself. However, the thought dissolves quickly, before he resumes his game of chess.

And it's true. Shikamaru Nara is one of the most famous strategists throughout the city. He is an outstanding employee of the FBI. He shares his condo with his girlfriend of four years, Temari Subaku, a famous pianist. Although she is a bit extravagant, he fell in love with her, even though he doesn't show it as much as she wants.

Once he finishes his game, he goes to the balcony, where he finds his girl with a few glasses of wine and music sheets. The scene causes some remorse in him, but not much. Seeing her like this, working, makes him think she understands him. But how wrong is the lazy bum. Women these days are not only "castrators" but also great actors.

While she is concentrating on his work, her mind is thousands of miles from there.

The black-haired male approaches her from behind and hugs her at the waist. "You know I love you, Tema." He whispers in her ear.

"Itachi, I'm on my way ... - then tell them to wait, the meeting is about my project, they have no choice." Says a man on the phone before hanging up. And not just any man but the very same Uchiha Sasuke. Famed entrepreneur, not only for his money and business success, but for his body of a gladiator and face like a Greek god.

"You look horrible. It's already six, At this rate we are going to clean up the leftovers at the meeting. And let this be the last time you go to my office dressed like that " Slashes out the Uchiha at the his wife. Yes, his wife. To this day he still wonders if marrying her was really worth it, but more importantly, he wonders why he hasn't divorced her yet. That he has never loved her is pretty much obvious. The reason why he married her is not so obvious. But that's something only he knows, or so he thinks. Of course his older brother also knows the reason, after all that's what older siblings are for; to take care of the young ones.

Perhaps he's still with her since if he's too busy to even pay attention to her, much less is he going to have time to go through with a divorce. He does what he wants anyway. He is 24 years old, rich, and handsome. Simply irresistible.

As the car stops at the light, the "acclaimed" wife promptly opens the door and exit's the car. Sasuke very well knows that the bubblegum-haired woman has a temper which at times can be worse than his, but apparently he likes to tick her off.

"Who does he think (s)he is?" They think at the same time.

Sasuke doesn't want to make a scene, but he needs to bring his beloved wife to the conference, so he also gets out of the car to chase after her. But before he reaches her, she has gotten into a taxi and is already driving away.

He returns to his car and pulls out his cell phone to dial her. She answers, since he can't do anything to her right now anyway. Before she can say anything, he begins to speak.

"I'm Sasuke Fucking Uchiha. I'm not going to be chasing after you every time you throw fits and tantrums. Let that be clear, Sakura." The black-eyed male says before hanging up.

"And I'm Sakura Uchiha. And nothing and nobody will ever change that Sasuke, not even yourself." She thinks.

Yes, Sakura can be bitchy, annoying, loud, sometimes violent, but one thing she is not, is stupid.

She knows that Sasuke is looking for any opportunity to fight. Separation, divorce, or something of the kind, neither of which she is willing to grant. She just WON'T let it happen.

When someone falls in love, it is often difficult to realize that love that only comes from one side can't make up for the love that should come from the opposite side. And our two couples are going to learn the hard way, by experiencing it personally.
