Chapter 1

Nara Shikamaru was lying on his bed, thinking about what went wrong. He had been friends with Yamanaka Ino way before they had begun dating. She was his first girlfriend, he had never done anything with another girl he liked as much as her. Ino however, had experienced the thrills of a blossoming sexuality from the beginning of high school.

It was earlier that day when Ino expressed that she wanted to go farther than just making out. Now he was alone in his room because he didn't know what to do and just showed disinterest.

His phone rang for what seemed like the eighth time since Ino had left. Shikamaru groaned before finally picking it up.

"Hello?" He said in a usual monotone.

"Dude," His friend's voice was loud against his ear, but Uzamaki Naruto was always loud. Voices were muffled in the background and he knew everyone was there. "We heard you blew it with Ino."

"I don't want to talk about it Naruto." Shikamaru muttered.

"Hold on we can help." Naruto said.

Shikamaru heard rustling, and the other voices in the room got clearer. Naruto had put his phone on speaker so he could talk to everyone.

"I really don't want to talk about it right now guys." Shikamaru stated simply

"Look man," He heard the unmistakable voice of Inuzaka Kiba. "We have all been at there. Wanting to make our girls happy but not doing it right."

"You just need practice." Uchiha Sasuke muttered simply.

"I don't even want to talk to her much less show my face at the moment." Shikamaru admitted.

He could barely make out the muffled voices as they had a conversation without him. Minutes went by, Shikamaru was watching the clouds when he heard the voices.

"We have a plan to help you with any girl you want." Naruto stated.

"It's a bad plan." His best friend Choji said faintly.

"She helped all of us out." Kiba added in.

"We are going to give you a number for someone who can help you. She helps guys out all the time." Sasuke said simply.

Shikamaru stayed silent for a moment. "Fine."

He waited a day before calling. A male voice answered and gave him an address, a time to visit and a code word. He was then told to delete the number before showing up. He drove his beat up pick up there, parking it on the road of a wealthy area of town.

He knocked on the door and waited. He heard yelling behind the door before it opened. He couldn't help but frown even more so when he looked at the blonde girl before him. She was shorter than him now, and was wearing just a t-shirt and spandex shorts.

"Shikamaru?" She asked, equally as shocked. She then held her usual poker face. "What are you doing here?"

"Sandstorm." Shikamaru stated not meeting her eyes.

He felt her grab his arm and pull him in the house before closing the door.
