Few hours later after hours of silent, "What the hell. How can I just leave my woman walking away like that. And breaking up?? NO. IT CANNOT HAPPEN!" Shikamaru thought "But it's true, we're too much of a long distance relationship.". Soon after of thinking how to solve the relationship, he decided "Marriage is the best solution.". Shikamaru was not the age, but if his parents agree, then he could so he rushed home and requested for marriage.

"Are you sure you want to get married?" Asked Shikamaru's mother, "It's a big responsibility.".

"But if you're really sure, go ahead." Shikamaru's father added.

With no thinking needed Shikamaru confirmed "Yes, I'm sure.". Shikamaru headed over to the Hokage building requesting for a break so that he could go to Sunagakure to propose, Tsunade, the Hokage heard it's about marriage so confirmed him for a week off. Shikamaru started travelling to the Sand.

Arrived at Sunagakure

When Shikamaru arrived, he did not go to the Kazekage to report first, because he knew if he went there he'll see Temari. Shikamaru wanted to give her a surprise, so he went all around the village buying flowers, chocolate and all sort of stuff to go along with the proposing. Shikamaru knows that usually when the sun starts to set, Temari leaves the Kazekage building heading home, so today he set up a whole bunch of cute sweet stuff in front of the entrance/exit to the Kazekage building.

As Temari starts stepping out the Kazekage building, she saw Shikamaru along with a stack of stuff, she was surprised and just looked at Shikamaru in the eyes. Shikamaru walked closer and closer, until he finally got to her, "Will you marry me?" Shikamaru proposed "We could see every day and night, sharing the same breath holding on to each other. I really hope from today on, you and I can be turned into a 'WE'.".

Temari was shocked, in a happy way. She immediately said "Yes," to the marriage, "but! We're going to be officially starting war with the Sound village in four days, so I hope to help my village do the last mission, since I will be moving to Konoha." smiled Temari.

"War?" Shikamaru questioned.

"Yes, but no worries, we're going to kick their ass!" Temari exclaimed.

"Do you think it's possible for me to st," Before Shikamaru could finish his sentence Gaara walked in the scene.

"Here's a letter for you Shikamaru, from the Hokage." Gaara said while handing the letter to Shikamaru, then left.

Shikamaru read "Shikamaru, one day after you have left the village we have been notified that we're going to be attacked by the Sound village in a week, it has been confirmed that we both Konoha and Suna is going to be attacked, so we're going to team up, most ninjas will be placed in the forests between Konoha and Suna, please be there under the Kazekage. -Hokage.".
No conversations were made.

During the four days before war, Shikamaru and Temari had tried to put in their best of fun.

"You're mine!" Shikamaru said then evil laughed, "We're engaged remember?!".

They were playing a game alike tag, "AH, get away from me." said Temari running and laughing.

...

Time flew by it was already the night before war.

"We'll win this war, right?" Temari questioned.

"No, duh!" Shikamaru said while laughing jokingly.

War has begun

During the war, Temari stuck close to Shikamaru all along seeing blood flowing everywhere.

cling cling cling cling a sword was close aiming towards Temari!

"WATCH OUT!" Shikamaru yelled switching spots with her causing him to get stabbed on his, pulse...

"SHIKAMARU!" Temari screamed, "Don't leave me! We still need to get married and have our own children!", she knelt down holding his hand, she gave up, did not move anymore and someone from the back stabbed her all the way through to the front "UGHHHH" she pained. They both were holding hand to hands laying down on the war ground getting stepped on. Shikamaru turned his body on top of hers to protect her, few minutes after he passed away. Temari cried, with her last breath she said "We'll see in heaven and get married right? I'll see you then, Shikamaru...".
"SHIKAMARU! TEMARI!" Sakura called holding a first aid kit, when she finally reached them while avoiding the Sound ninjas, it was too late. All Sakura saw was Shikamaru lying on top of Temari with Shikamaru's back all dirty, plenty of footsteps.

Two months later

The Sound ninja failed, though they created many losses to both Konoha and Suna.

All Shikamaru and Temari's relatives and friends placed a nice big funeral, but before they did that, they created a nice marriage for them which they believe they received the marriage in heaven.

Author's conclusion add on: Who knows, maybe they made plenty heaven babies. (:

Note: I am not trying to or doing; offending ShikaTema, I just didn't want a normal ending (eg. they lived happily ever after), therefore I gave an ending that is sad, at the same time happy, since they could be having a great life on heaven.

review is much appreciated
