Shikamaru and his girlfriend Temari were in Kohona to spend some time together after Temari got done a recent mission.
Shikamaru always appreciated his friends and family, but Temari was first in his life.

As he walked down the street carrying Temari bridal style, Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru's closest "girl" friend, and he never told her about Temari, so when she seen him she gasped.
Shikamaru sighed he knew Ino would freak out but was surprised when she then smiled and looked at him joyfully.

"Shika, who is this, are you guys a thing, how long, why didn't u tell me-".
"Stop asking so many questions, her name is Temari from Suna, she is one of the strongest Kuniochi in Suna, and has 2 brothers, both freaks, but are the strongest men in Suna right now, as Gaara, particularly the stronger an younger one, was very disturbed as a child but put it in the past a long time ago, but Kankuro, a creepy puppet master, and Suna's pervert, is his big brother, that helps Gaara with battle strategy." He said lazily.

"And also Ino, we were thinking later u can meet with Temari and I at my place, we invited everybody to come to her brothers party". He said putting Temari down as she blushed redder then a baboons ass.
"Hmm, her brother, the creepy one I met, but I haven't heard of her other one, I guess I can meet him". She thought.
"Ok I can meet this other brother but not Kankuro, creepy bastard" She said as she said bye to her friends and went to get ready for the party but ran into someone, shirtless. She knocked him down and in what felt like slow-motion she seen the man, he had a ripped 6 abs, very muscular man, dark circles around his eyes, and greenish eyes, but what stood out most was his tattoo on his head which said "Love", and his spike like red hair.
"Oh my...I-I am so sorry, let me help you up". She said blushing but worried, she helped get him up and turned away trying to hide her blush.
"Its ok, I am Gaara Of The Sand," He said bowing.
"I am Ino Yamanaka nice to meet you" She said also bowing, blushing,
"Your face is red, are you ok" He said concerned.
"No-no its fine". She said trying to keep her blush away.
"Alright at least let me walk you home to just you know...make sure you don't pass out or get hurt". He said grabbing her bottom back and then her legs and carried her bridal style, as she blushed more and more and gave him directions to her house.
