Unwillingly Betrothed

The First Letter
Dear Future wife,
The title probably infuriates you, but you have to admit that it's what you are. Don't get the wrong idea. I'm not happy with this arrangement, and you probably are not either. But one way or another we have to do it, even if the idea of it makes us cringe.
I figured that I would write this letter so that we could get to know each other a little better before the big day. But we both know that's crap. My mom is making me write this letter to 'open the lines of communication.' Tch. Troublesome woman. All she does is nag, whine, bitch and complain. When she's not doing that she's going on about wonderful you mother was, which must make you wonderful. Bull shit, I say. Knowing my luck you'll probably just be as troublesome as my mom.
But this is opening the lines of communication very well, is it? Well, who gives a damn? Well, mom does, so I guess I had better get to the 'opening the lines of communication' part. My name (as you probably already know) is Shikamaru Nara. I am twelve years old (as you also probably already know), and I am your future husband (and yet again I state something you already know). I enjoy Shoji, chess, and cloud watching. I have many 'friends', but I'm not popular. My mom says I'm lazy, but I just can't be bothered with most things.
Okay, now it's you turn. I can't be bothered any more.
Your future husband,
Shikamaru Nara
P.S. You don't have to respond to this letter, but if you don't it will come back and bite you in the ass once we're married.
GRose522: Thanks so much for the reviews! They make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Kinda like a hairball. I know the last chapter was kinda confusing, but being confusing is kinda my prerogative at most points. But still, tell me what you think!
