A/N- cut me some slack, I wrote this while in a pissed mood! This is my first story in a while, so all reviews loved, been working on my book!
Summary- Shikamaru gets upset at his parents, and decides to leave, and become a rogue ninja, can Neji stop him? Does he want to? How can he?
'How troublesome' Shikamaru thought, as he surveyed the cleaning, he hated how clean obsessed his mother was, if a speck of dust landed on the floor, then she'd have him start all over. He wished she would just make his dad do it. "Women are so troublesome." He wondered if it was to her specifications. Shrugging, he headed off to think while watching clouds. He let his mind wonder, the second he relaxed in the soft, comforting grass, analyzing all that went wrong, with his mission, is where his mind headed. Frowning slightly, he knew if he'd helped instead of leaving his team to fight one on one, his team would have survived, the mission less harmed. But it would have ended in worse failure, he glared, fully blaming himself, and Sasuke for what happened. As his mind further traveled down that path, his frown deepened, Neji, that pale eyed ninja, appeared, consuming his thoughts. Shikamaru recognized he felt something for Neji, he just wasn't sure if it was pity, respect, or other emotions.
As he dwelled on the thoughts of the cute Hyuuga, he jumped, realizing he'd thought of Neji, as cute. Yelling, his mom shook him from his trance, calling him, "Shikamaru! Get your lazy ninja ass in here!" He stood, rolling his eyes, and transported home, too lazy to walk. The moment she saw him, she snarled, "Look at this mess! Did you not vacuum the corners?! I asked you to clean your bathroom, yet it's disgusting! Do you know how much work I've had to do?! I can't believe this! Your father's gone on a mission, is it too much to ask for a little help?! I'm keeping this house all by myself; my son's too self-centered to help his mom!" Anger pulsed through Shikamaru, behind his calm exterior. As her ranting came to an end, he vanished, ignoring her new angry hollers, and heading to his hill, to relax. "I wonder why I still live there, am I that bad; I mean I at least cleaned. How troublesome." Worry threatened to consume the peace of the hill.
He'd never let anyone know how much hurt he had, and how much he wanted his mothers love, she'd been like that for as long as he could remember, no mater what he did, she found fault, never recognizing him, and loving him like a normal mother. "Will I ever be a good son to her?" He shrugged, staring off, so absorbed in his thoughts, that the analyzing gaze from the forest went unnoticed. Shifting his thoughts, succeeding, Neji entered them, his cloudy eyes, hard to read, and the looks to make heaven sing. Jumping, mentally, he wondered how his mind had wandered that far to where he thought Neji was beautiful.
"Guess I have issues with pretty guys. I blame it on that crush on Chouji. How troublesome, Hyuuga isn't gay." Shaking his head, he stood up, mom ranting was better than odd thinking. "Heh, Neji, and I a couple, deffinantly troublesome." Pulling out a stress relief, he lit the cigarette, and walked slowly home, enjoying his silence, until an annoying blonde female appeared. "Ino, can I help you?" Shikamaru was extremely annoyed by her; he didn't need another annoying woman bothering him. "Shikamaru-kun! Tamari says you're going to date her! I thought you liked me!" She latched onto him, attempting to kiss him. Shoving her off unaffectionatly, he wished Sasuke was back for the first time, so she would go back to being his fan girl. "Shika-kun!" Ino whined, "Ino, I have no attraction to you or any other troublesome girl that you assume I'm with!" He jutsued out before she could cling again.
His mother yelled the second she saw him, ignoring her; he marched to his room, collapsing on his bed, wondering if his day could get any worse. Chouji appeared at his window, nodding, "So she's in a bad mood again huh?" He asked. "Yeah, troublesome women." Shikamaru sighed. "So, still caught up with your thoughts of Neji?" Chouji asked innocently. Staring at him shocked, "How did you know I've been thinking about him?" Shikamaru asked, guessing he needed to be more subtle when he observes the Hyuuga, he just watched him from a tree outside his hospital room, not spying, if you really thought about it… Chouji laughed, "Whenever he's around now, you loose your train of thought Shikamaru, I'm slow, not that slow." He nodded, pulling out his signature bag of chips.
Nodding, Shikamaru thought about that. His mom charged in, and Chouji poofed before she saw him. "Shikamaru get your lazy bum up and clean now! If this place isn't clean, you get to clean up the deer feces! Do you hear me!?" Shikamaru hissed, jumping up, and cleaning, half his mind on what Chouji said, if it was that obvious, he might have to stop watching Neji, maybe avoid him till he understood his weird thoughts. As she monitored him, complaining if he missed anything, he finished cleaning, and went to bed, mother still yelling, and cleaning, saying he messed it up here, and there, the toilets weren't scrubbed just right. Going on and on, as he drifted into troublesome sleep.
(Dream) Neji walked in dressed in a frilly maid outfit, as Shikamaru stared frozen, or more accurately tied to the bed, fully undressed. Neji walked up, smirking softly. "Hello Shikamaru! I heard you were lusting after me; want me to help you get over that?" Shikamaru was lost, what was going on? How had Neji found out?! What was happening?! Neji came closer, and kissed Shikamaru over the head, slowly licking and nibbling his neck, and moving down, to tease his hard nipples. Eliciting soft moans from Shikamaru, who was still unsure of what was happening. Neji swirled around his belly button, sending pleasure though Shikamaru, as his member hardened swiftly at Neji's playfulness. Neji smirked, and began toying with his member, licking circles around the tip, bringing his mouth close, and breathing on the member, and massaging his balls, smirking every time Shikamaru moaned in pleasure. When Shikamaru was so close to release, Neji tied a string around his member, blocking anything from coming out, and Shikamaru gasped in horror, what was that?! Neji laughed opening windows, as people appeared, and laughed at him, Neji turned towards him, "You can't even stand up to your mom, why would you even think you had a chance with me? I'm so far above you, its not even funny Nara." And Neji left, Shikamaru sat there in misery, and his mother appeared, ranting about how terrible he was for being gay, and how she expected grandchildren.
Waking up screaming into a pillow, Shikamaru stared at the wall, realizing that he would never react that way, but the dream shaking him none the less. His mother charged in yelling how his whimpers had disturbed her, and he snapped, anger flooding him, "You troublesome women! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE YOU?! You will never respect anything I do to attempt to help you, now if you will excuse me!" He grabbed his clothes, tossing them in a bag, and tossed it on his shoulder, grasping his Ninja band, he stalked passed her shocked face, and walked through the silent Konaha, and smiled, "Free." That's all he thought, approaching the gate, he pulled out a cigarette, and lit it, inhaling, and exhaling relaxing. "Well I solved my problems simply." He didn't realize he still had tears in his eyes from his nightmares, and whipped them away, shrugging; no one was going to see him. He sat on his hill, saying good bye to Konaha, and all the annoying people within.
"Going somewhere Nara." Neji asked, appearing as if out of no where beside Shikamaru. Pinching himself subtly, he knew he was awake. "It's troublesome Hyuuga, not worth your time." Neji sat down, close from what Shikamaru heard, he was laying down, eyes closed, enjoying his last night of peace, starting tomorrow, he'd be a rogue ninja, always on the run. He'd easily outwit them; he was their most talented thinker now wasn't he. "Well, lets hear it, better be a mission, or it will be my job to stop you Nara." Shikamaru cracked his eye open lazily, not allowing his racing heart to affect his speech, "Just family troubles, getting out for the night, nothing wrong with that you troublesome Hyuuga." "If it's a night from family, why the stuffed bag?" Hyuuga pointed out, waiting for a sensible response, as Shikamaru cursed. He was deffinantly scrambled if he messed up with that excuse.
"I'm leaving Hyuuga, too much trouble from this village, plan on living in peace, can't you just let me do that please?" Shikamaru whispered, barely audible, Neji wouldn't have heard if he wasn't seated so close. "Why?" He whispered to Shikamaru, sending shivers down Shikamaru's spine, because he was leaning right next to his ear. "Troublesome women in this village, too bothersome since Sasuke left." Neji smirked, breathing on his ear, "Is that the only reason? I happened to be in the woods this afternoon; you might want to be careful talking to yourself." Shikamaru jumped up, "Fuck!" He remembered he'd said out loud he was thinking about him and Neji as a pair. "Guess my nightmares coming true, time to make a run for it." He whispered softly to himself, poofing to the gates of Konaha, before Neji even blinked. Neji appeared in front of him, "Now Nara, no need to run, I'm just here to talk." Shikamaru raised an eyebrow at the slight change in Neji's normal volume. If it weren't night, he could use his shadow jutsu. Neji was behind him, and bound his hands together, repeating with his feet, tossing him over his shoulder, it was obvious something was wrong with Shikamaru because he didn't even plan, or manage to escape, which would have been simple.
Neji poofed into his apartment, setting the bound Shikamaru on his bed, Shikamaru had a blank look on his face, sweat on his face. The Nightmare was flashing through his mind, and he wanted to know why he had been bound. "So Hyuuga, can we get this over with so I can leave please?" He didn't even use his normal phrase, which was another key to Neji that something was wrong. "I'm not here to be an ass Nara, as odd as that sounds, I was listening to you, I've been following you since you last decided to spy on me in the hospital. So I heard you, it happens, you were worrying me, so yeah. Mind telling me what this is all about." He nodded, both knew he was talking about the sort of confession in the meadow. "I'm sorry." Shikamaru mumbled, nibbling his lip. "I really didn't mean for you to find out, first off, I'm the last person to be gay, so I understand if you are grossed out, it happens, but, you are like clouds, I feel like I've almost grasped it, then you change, throwing off what I thought I knew, and you have an odd attitude, its very, vulnerable yet, hardened, doesn't hurt that you look good as well." He started at normal, and ended barely audible, blush adorning his cheeks, and he was feeling much like a girl at that moment.
