Lazy Days
Prompt: Temari- A typical day with Shikamaru (shipped)
Temari could feel her life wasting away, her precious seconds and minutes just being taken from her in the form of this mundane activity. The sands of time were pouring unceasingly into the hourglass of life. Soon, she would be old and have missed out on so much because-
"Oi, quit thinking such dramatic thoughts," her Konoha boyfriend mumbled, turning his head from the sky to glance at her. The two were lying down on a grassy hill, cloud watching of all things. Or as Temari called it "the biggest waste of time she'd ever heard of".
"Why do you insist on doing this every day?" she snapped back, glad to have a distraction from the activity that was threatening to put her to sleep. She didn't even question his ability to practically read her mind. He was a genius, she'd figured out early on, so such feats weren't as unexpected when it came to him. Rather, she'd be rather skeptical if he didn't know her mind completely by now.
"We're doing this to relieve stress from our jobs," he explained, probably for the tenth time already. In addition to their lives as shinobi, she was also an ambassador and he was also a tactical planner; both had been the troublesome job of planning Chuunin exams for the third time in a row.
Temari sat up.
"I could think of a much better way to relieve stress," she offered, raising a brow at him suggestively, that familiar smirk-like grin tugging at her lips. Green eyes flashed provocatively, a challenge as always. This kind not many men would turn down but she never knew with this guy. Shikamaru was still an enigma. Not that she really minded- it kept things interesting.
Still, the offer hung in the air.
"….." he was silent for a moment, his eyes closed in contemplation. "Later. Right now, clouds,"
Temari groaned and lay back down.
