Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this story except Kiki

Kiki backed up against a tree as Nara Shikamaru advanced toward her. He extended his arm out and touched her face. Which in turn, her entire face turned a dark shade of red. Adverting her eyes to the right, Shikamaru tilted her face back toward him and placed his lips upon hers. Kiki loved the feel of his lips pressed against hers; it felt like thousands of tiny fireworks shooting off throughout her body.

As they continued to kiss, Shikamaru wrapped his arms around Kiki's waist and held her against his body as close as he could. When he removed his lips, he felt as if he could still taste her in his mouth. That only made him want her more. This resulted in him kissing her again but in different places. He wanted to taste her as much as he could before their team found them or before the sun rose and Ino and Chouji noticed that they were missing.

When Shikamaru lifted his lips from Kiki's, she looked up into his eyes. Kiki got lost in his eyes, she felt as if she could just eat him up. As she adjusted her head to look at him, Kiki saw him take his hair down. She didn't realize that he had taken headband off.

Shikamaru then embraced her once more. Kiki took the opportunity to lay her head down onto his chest. She listened to the gentle rhythm of his heartbeat. Kiki could smell his hair, it smelt so good. Shikamaru was listening to the song that the forest animals were providing for them.

Suddenly Shikamaru let go of her, and began to put his hair back up into its normal up position. As he did this, he looked over a Kiki who was also doing the same thing. They both knew that it was about time to leave. Shikamaru walked over to her and took the headband out of her hands and put it back on himself. Once done they began to walk back. Instead of jumping through the trees, they took the long way back because they wanted to enjoy the time that they had together.

As they continued to walk, they stopped near their campsite to have a few more minutes to be alone. After finding a spot, they laid on a patch of grass, while fireflies were dancing in the darkness. Kiki snuggled close to Shikamaru not only to keep warm. This made Shikamaru to kiss her again. By now Shikamaru was laying on top of Kiki. When it became clear that they both desperately needed air, they broke apart. As Shikamaru gazed at Kiki, he took note of her beauty. Shikamaru then began to brush his lips against hers; this was a way that was supposed to show Kiki that he really cared for her. Kiki seemed to get the message.

A noise was what had interrupted the two. A small rabbit jumped out of the bushes. It was looking for some food to eat but came across a couple of kids making out in the middle of the forest. As the rabbit hopped away, Shikamaru pulled Kiki to her feet. Once on here feet, they continued their way back to camp. About 20 feet from the site, Shikamaru pulled Kiki into one last kiss.

But it seemed that this one had lasted longer than the previous ones had. Kiki wrapped her arms around him after he'd wrapped his around her. Once they pulled apart, they continued back to their tent's knowing that each other's feelings were strong.
