Prologue

It was a usual day in Konoha. Shikamaru and Temari were at a picnic together as part of there weekly routine. There was always small talk between the two with some occasional flirting, but nothing prepared the young shirker for what was next.

Temari- Ahh. It's so nice out today. I love the warm weather. Don't you Shika-kun?

Shikamaru- ...

Shikamaru did not respond due to the fact that he mesmerized by the clouds in the sky.

Temari- Shika-kun? Hello!! Shikamaru?

Temari- Nara Shikamaru! Did you fall asleep again! AHHHHHH! You never appreciate my company!

Although Shikamaru was in a daze, he could still hear Temari crying ecstatically in the background.

Shikamaru- I wasn't asleep geez! I'm not that lazy! And since when are you so emotional?

Temari(sobbing)- I'm sorry. I just feel like I'm unappreciated lately that's all. Hey, can pass me the yogurt please?

Shikamaru- Sure.

Shikamaru then watched quizzically as Temari dipped her cucumber into the yogurt.

Shikamaru- ... Temari, what the hell are you eating?!

Temari- It's good! Want a bite?

Shikamaru- GROSS! NO! Get that away from me!

Temari- More for me!

Suddenly a group of children came running by playing Frisbee. As they ran by, they knocked over their blanket, spilling sand into the Ramen.

Temari- Hey! You Brats spilled sand in my Ramen!

As they ran away. Temari began making hand signs. It wasn't until she pulled out her fan that Shikamaru noticed what she was doing.

Temari- Kuchiyose Kiri Kiri Ma...

Shikamaru quickly tackled her to cut her off from the jutsu.

Shikamaru- Temari they're children! What were you thinking?! Its just Ramen!

Temari then started crying again.

Shikamaru- Temari what's gotten into you?!

Temari- It's just that those children are so cute, and...

Shikamaru did not hear her finish her sentence because he was deep in thought.

Shikamaru(thinking to himself)- A need for companionship, mood swings and this new taste for strange food? She couldn't be...

Temari- Shika-kun?

Shikamaru- What?

Temari- I'm pregnant.

As those words hit his ears, Shikamaru fainted.
