Having friends sometimes felt more like a chore than one of the supposed gifts of life, Shikamaru thought as he heard Ino go on and on about something he could care less about. Instead he was watching the door waiting for Chouji to save him.
"Oi when is Chouji coming?" He finally asked rudely interrupting his ex teammate.
"Chouji?... He is on a mission he isn't coming" Ino answered clearly used to Shikamaru's rude behavior.
"Why did I not know of this?" He asked clearly irritated in the face of the idea that not only was he left out of this information but also about the fact that he was having dinner with Ino alone tonight.
"Well you were clearly occupied by the Suna embassador these couple of days, he probably didn't want to interrupt anything" Ino answered him while looking at her nails and a small smirk adorned her face.
"I was just doing my job. He could have said it at anytime" Shikamaru clearly irritated expressed.
"Oh I didn't know that you could conduct work on your apartment, must be a new way to do it. Tell me Shika, it is more comfortable?" Shikamaru could help the heat that invaded his cheeks.
"I don't know what you are implying but all we did was work, why would we do anything else?" He stuttered.
"Because you are obviously infatuated with her. Temari I couldn't say, but there is probably something there if she agrees to work with you so much." Ino was just hitting him with everything she had. Not that she ever tame down.
"Why would I be infatuated with her? I mean she is everything I don't want, bossy, harsh, she has no regard for anyone's feeling, one could even argue she was not entirely a girl, since she is so not girl like" during his rant Shikamaru had totally missed Ino's eyes getting bigger and her staring past him. She even stayed silent after he had finished, which clue him that there was something wrong.
"What is it?" but before Ino could answer all Shikamaru could feel was pain. Something or rather someone had hit him on the top of his head. For a moment everything he could see was black. After a few second he turned his eyes to see a purple dress and blonde hair leaving Yakiniku Q.
"Why didn't you stop me?" he turned now angry at Ino.
"It's not my fault you are so oblivious, besides you deserve what you were getting, talking about her like that, hump, just because I feel sorry for you I won't hit you either. But you're paying for the food, bye Shikamaru" Ino got up to leave. Shikamaru was still a little stunned.
"Troublesome"
…
When he finally settled the bill, he went directly to the training grounds. He now had a lot of grovel to do. Knowing Temari, she was probably trashing the forest of Konoha right now. He let out a sigh. Keeping their relationship a secret was becoming more of a hazard that the implications of everyone knowing they were together.
He was proven right when on arrival he could see that the grounds were no longer covered by trees. Instead as far as he could see the north part was visible from the outside of the village. He looked around until he saw the culprit of the damage. She was on a tree, sitting on a branch and looking ahead. She had her back to him.
He jumped and landed next to her. Her shoulders tensed. Although she didn't seemed surprise to see him. Of course she had felt him. When he turned to look at her, he could see that the tip of her nose and the underside of her eyes were a little red. He felt even worse. He had made her cry. Which was something he had seen once before when Gaara had been in the hospital after an assassination attempt.
"Tem… am sorry" He put his hand on the back of his head, scratching his neck.
"It's fine Shikamaru, you were not saying anything that wasn't truth right? Although I would like to add that since you have seen my vagina, then I would like the no girl part scratch from your speech. For the next time that you give it, you know." She said in a pretty normal voice.
"No, it was wrong I shouldn't have said anything"
"Whatever you already say it, there is nothing to do about it. But it's good to know you thoughts and how this is probably just a pastime to you, since I am apparently too difficult but then who am I kidding, so tell me all the time. I am so troublesome." She used her hand point both at him and at her. Letting him know that she was talking about their relationship.
Not knowing exactly how to convey to her what she was feeling. He decided that showing her was the best way to go. So he sat next to her, turned her head toward him and kissed her. Deep, long and hard. Their teeth getting in the way multiple times. His tongue battling her. Winning.
"Do you think that if any of the bullshit I told Ino was true, I would be kissing you this way? Wanting you the way I do? Not caring that anyone could see us?" He whispered to her. His head on her forehead, his breath mixing with the air she was taking to her lungs. In way still marking her from the inside without actually touching her.
"Then why did you tell her that?" She asked. Squeezing his hand, wanting nothing more than to touch his face, but having reservations being that they were in public. And although he could forget that they were she couldn't.
"You know why, we agree to keep this a secret" Temari separated from him a little. She frowned.
"But Ino told me she knew. That you have told her." Temari reveal to Shikamaru.
"What? When? "
"The last time I came here"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Well I was mad when she told me but then I thought it was kinda sweet that you couldn't keep it a secret, so I was not going to ruin it for you by telling you. Then again I also though she would tell you, she told me. I mean she was the one that invited me to barbeque today" Temari said, startling to ramble.
"Wait for me at my apartment" Shikamaru told her as he got off from the tree.
….
Before Temari arrive at Shikamaru's apartment, she heard his raised voice and a squeal from his blonde friend.
