A/n: Okay, I'm truly sorry for the awfully long wait. I've run into one problem after the other. First Christmas, where I left the story at my school, then I went to Norway for a week, and I since normally write this in my Danish/Math/German or English lessons, and my schedule hasn't quite been normal these few months, I was first finished writing in the beginning of February. Then a brought it with me when I went to the capitol, meaning to write it in there, and I forgot it! I'm so so so so so sorry! There's no real excuse for the last month of nonposting, though, but my own laziness.
Disclaimer – It seems to be 'trendy' to write a, 'If I owned Naruto' disclaimer so I'll do likewise;
If I owned Naruto, then Orochimaru would make out with Sasuke, they're like, so like, cute like, together like, duh-ish. But I don't!
It wasn't really on purpose, he simply walked into her, but that's not really where it went wrong. He did apologize and under normal circumstances, she would have forgiven him, but that's not where it went wrong. She was lost, her boyfriend had told her he needed to be alone with her, and she had followed, reluctantly, into the backstreets of Konoha. Suddenly he was gone, she had simply stopped for a moment to look at an odd building when suddenly, Shikamaru was nowhere in sight and she was inevitably lost, but that's not where it went wrong.
Shino too had some problems, his shades were gone, and his eyes were left exposed to the public, but the disaster didn't start here, it was only prolonged.
You see, Shino had been forced to cross the main street, since whilst he was escaping the kunoichi, he had gotten into the wrong part of Konoha and when he tried to correct that, he had been spotted by yet another kunoichi who had given chase, and not just any kunoichi, no the younger sister of his teammate.
He thought he had escaped, when suddenly he had bumped into yet another girl, literally. Cursing his luck he had prepared to escape when some terrible misunderstanding took place. The kunoichi was none other than Temari of the Sand, who happened to be expecting her boyfriend, so when Shino bumped into her, she had thought him to be Shikamaru. His hastened apology was interrupted when her lips suddenly came flying his way, 90 Miles/hour.
His ninjareflexes saved him though, and he managed to twist away and her kiss landed clumsily upon his cheek instead. They synchronically apologized, as it dawned to Temari who she just had kissed. Unfortunately at the time, she had already caught a glimpse of his eyes and the disastrous effect soon took place.

Shino wasn't allowed to walk far though, before he sensed a presence behind him. He spun while crouching and thus evading the Kiss Temari had meant to be his, and it landed on his forehead instead. He heard her mutter a curse and try to grab hold of him but his hands shot up simultaneously and deflected them off to each side. Then he lunged forward, knocking her left arm upwards whilst running under it, just the way he had seen the little girl do earlier that day.
Temari spun to face him, startled, but the tapping of his footsteps were disappearing down an alley. Yet she smirked, she simply loved hunting.
-
His breath was growing more frequent, and the arching pain located in his leg had only increased tenfold due to all the man handling, he feared it might be broken. Yet he ran on unstoppably – or, ran is a bit of an overstatement, the thing he did was more like limbering very quickly.
He could get attacked anytime; quickly he ducked to the right, into a narrow alley.
-
She skipped over a garbage bin, he was close – she knew. Almost by instinct she hunched down on all four, chakra and adrenalin surged throughout her body,
THERE!
She lunged, ran a couple of step along on the side of the wall before landing right in front of him. She smiled at his shocked expression and her hand darted forward with all the intent to catch him, but in vain, as his hand simply shot adeptly forward and deflected her arm to the side. With her entire body thrown off balance, Shino lunged to the side, behind her back. She managed to spin though and grab hold of his shoulder. His other arm came flying towards her, but using her hold on him, she managed to jump into the air, spinning. As she flew over him, she planted a kiss on his cheek.
He cursed, wishing he knew some Hyuga techniques. This was getting on his last nerve. His kikai had dutifully gone to sleep like they were supposed to once his bloodline was activated. He wasn't going to get any help.
Frantically he parried of her incoming attacks but he was being backed up against the wall. He sighed and backflipped, landing on the wall then jumping off spinning over her head. A shot of pain surged through his body as he regained contact with the pavement, and before he knew, his leg gave away and he tumbled to the ground, gasping.
Suddenly she had herself positioned above him. Her knees had his arms pinned, and she leaned down towards him.
At first he didnøt quite register, the gentle touch of her lips against his cheek. The second kiss was a little easier to recognize though, but even worse, it was even closer to his lips. He shivered, not wanting to have his very first kiss to be like this. He tried frantically to break free but she held him in an iron grip. How strong was this girl! Everything seemed to go by in ultraslowmotion as her lips came closer and even closer to his. But as she leaned down, her weight was removed from his stomach. With a desperate jerk, he managed to shove himself in between her legs – closing his eyes for a few seconds to avoid staring into an unpleasant place, namely under her skirt – and then he was free.
Temari looked up, quite amazed as this 'daring escape', but Shino was gone down yet another alley. This again? A thin smile showed on her face.
-
He tripped and fell. Damn trashbins. Get up – go. His feet were pushed under him, and he was already moving. Hasting around a corner. His leg was hurting – badly. He had to ignore the pain. Gotta keep moving. He skipped over an inconveniently placed wagon, rolled when he hit the ground. His footsteps were magnified tenfold, and sent spinning back through the alley, echoing off the close walls. She would no doubt hear. He stopped for a moment to catch his breath, but the echo of steps continued still, someone was in the alley with him.
Moments later he was running again. Why was everybody hunting him? Why didn't they just leave him alone? Of course he knew the answer: Aburame were in season (in more than one way), and the Shino-hunt had gone in.
Suddenly he found his way blocked by a tall fence. He stopped and looked at it, a tall wall of impossibility, right in front of him. Cursing his luck he turned to find the figure of a kunoichi at the end of the alley. She steadily came closer and closer. He could almost sense the smile on her lips, one of victory. For a few moments he turned back and forth between the advancing girl and the fence, before he drew forth his hands, readying himself for battle.
His kunai pouch was at his room– conveniently missing – and he cursed himself for being so stupid.
Suddenly Temari stood right behind him.
Bodyflicker!
He tried to turn quickly enough, but was interrupted when he felt something weird, the tickling sensation of a kiss, right behind his ear. He shivered and pulled away. A mocking smirk was on her face. Her hand shot forward but he countered by sidestepping whilst hurling his towards the side of her head. She ducked. Up came her leg, he lunged pt a side. Again he had to dodge her fist, but this time her face quickly followed. Wait, what! Before he could do anything, she had planted yet another kiss, mere inches from his lips.
He flinched, startled, and suddenly she was all up close. The tanned arms circled his waist, pulling her lithe body close to his. He gasped inaudibly as he felt her curves press against his chest. Her long but strong fingers tousled his hair, caressed his jaw, lead his face towards hers…
His eyes widened when he suddenly felt her lips against his, featherlight at first, but more passionately soon. Her hands had grabbed a fist of his jacked and were holding on tightly when she suddenly could feel a soft brush against them. A caress of Shino's gentle fingertips perhaps. Suddenly the caress turned into a tight grip, and her hands were twisted away violently.
Just as Shino had managed to free himself from her grasp, he jumped into the air, landing briskly on her shoulder, before jumping off again. His hands closed around the top of the fence and he pulled himself over. When on the other side, he quickly created a clone and ordered it to run down the nearest alley. His real self pressed its back against the fence, meaning to go unnoticed when she jumped over the fence. Unfortunately for Shino, she never jumped over the fence, on the other hand she used a scroll to summon her giant fan, and frankly blew away the fence, and Shino with it. For a moment he span through the empty air when he abruptly was stopped. His body jerked violently and he found his arms being twisted backwards and secured in an armlock. His eyes widened in terror and he tried to break free but the inhuman strength of the Sunan girl never faltered and easily overcame whatever he could muster.
He could feel her moist, hot breath tickling the back of his neck. A shiver lurked a the bottom of his spine, but intensified when she suddenly planted a kiss on his neck. The shiver slowly moved up his spine, helped by a second kiss, and it spread throughout most of his body, and left a wonderful warmth wherever it went, all the way out into his fingers and toes, making him curl them as she softly nibbled the skin.
Once the third kiss was placed, Shino forgot everything around him. His eyes closed – automatically – and he simply enjoyed thee wonderful sensation, like having a warm bucket of ice water, tipped over him. (a/n: yes indeed, a warm bucket of ice water, it's a metaphor)
He gasped, was that her tongue he could feel? In spite of the pleasure, he managed to gather himself.
Escaping an armlock was simple, he knew. When you tensed you allowed the person something to grab hold of. On the contrary, if you simply relaxed. But it wasn't all to easy to relax when a girl was licking the side of your neck while pressing all of her womanly persuasion against one's back.
Shino did though, he managed to gather his thoughts around another relaxed, weak, limbless.
Noodles, worms, snakes, err.. noodles.. Naruto's arms… err… Noodles!
He desperately lunged forward, and his arms slipped free of her grip. He spun, ready to meet her in open battle.
She was holding he fan.
A sudden gust of wind blew him off his feet. He swirled through the air, trying to find some manner of direction in the disorientation, when suddenly he felt the agony of being slammed into a quite solid brickwall. A gasp escaped his lips.
Was this how Shikamaru's everyday life was? He ought to commend the guy then, and not only for his intellect like he usually did, but for his constitution as well.
Suddenly Temari appeared right in front of him. Her arms were quickly draped around his neck, and then, her lips were being grinded against his, her body against his. He felt her tongue slide into his mouth – still open from the shock. And as she started to explore his mouth, he felt his knees go weak. This was a new, strange pleasure. His face felt as if it was burning, in a nice way.
Instinctly he closed his eyes and it felt like hours before the connection between their was severed.
-
Out of the corner of his eye, Shino saw a black jewellery box spin through the air – a very strange thing for a jewellery box to do – dropped from the hand of Nara Shikamaru.
Everything went by everso slowly, like the jewellery box spinning slowly towards the ground, a single tear made it's way down the – otherwise emotionless – face of the shadowwielder.
The box neared the ground steadily, and when the impact finally came it was the only sound that was made, even their breaths were held back. The box jumped once, then it lay perfectly still.
Then it all seemed to return to normal. Shikamaru turned and ran but what surprised Shino was that Temari followed suit. It seemed that her enchantment had been lifted, but it ought to be impossible, what reaction inside her had triggered that? Simply love?
Shino stood still for some time after she was gone, unable to hide his amazement.
A/n: Okaay, I'm starting to grow bored with this story, it's repeating itself over and over again, so I'm just going to finish it with a last chapter and then maybe a epilogue. Sorry! By the way, this chapter was written for me to get a feel of how to write action things, I've started to write an idea for a ZoroXTashigi fanfic for One Piece and I need to learn how to write combatscenes. How did you like it?
