"Temari? I have to go now. My meeting is starting and I can't miss it. I will see you later." The ginger boy whispered through the closed door of his sister's room. He was never one to yell. "Hmmm would you like some lunch? You know you need to eat more Garra." She said in a motherly tone of voice. "May I come in? It's awkward talking through the door." "Sure" He opened the wooden door to reveal a sleepy eyed Temari with her golden hair at he shoulders and the pink tank top she wore was half way falling off. "I won't be back until late tonight, don't wait up long." "Want me to bring you lunch?" "It isn't necessary; you know I don't eat often. It would be a waste of your cooking." "You need to eat Garra. As your sister and your keeper you need to eat. Especially since you're the Kazekage. What if we get attacked and you don't have enough energy to fight? It would be because you don't eat as often as you should." "Or because the enemy used an attack to weaken me." "You need to eat. I'm bringing you food." "You need to rest. I'm leaving now. Goodbye sister." "Be safe" He nodded and shut the door leaving Temari to sleep the rest of the time. "You know you're going to be a great mother babe." Shikamaru rolled over to face her. "How do you know that crybaby?"
"Look how you act with your brothers. You practically scold them on everything, and you care for them" He said with a slight yawn. It was true; she worried about Garra and Kankuro even when she wasn't with them. Not only that she worried about Shikamaru and his family and all of her friends. She would never let anyone know though because of her personality and her reputation as a hard shell girl that couldn't be broken.
"Hey Shika? Boy or Girl?
"Both"
"Which one first?"
"Boy"
"Why?"
"So he can take care of you and his sister if something should happen to me. I mean, I want him to be strong and brave and smart so I can be at ease knowing full and well that our son will protect us."
"Oh. Well I want a girl first so she can teach her siblings everything and be there for us but I'm fine with either one as long as it's healthy." She gave a slight smile that Shikamaru kissed before laying down on his chest and drifting back to sleep. "We won't know what it is 'til we go back to Konoha next week." He said hugging her close to him so he could lay his head on hers. "I know. I can't wait to find out. I wonder if Garra and Kankuro will be coming with us. I hope they decide to come. It would be nice if they saw some old friends and said hi to everyone." "And meet my parents and Kurenai so they can see who the baby will be around and be comfortable with them." He said before snoring. She smiled at him and whispered "I love you too."
Ok so that was a short "Filler" chapter. Yes I admit I am being a bit lazy but you know what? I have been busy with school, club activities, and I will be starting a new story with a friend of mine that is a writer for this site so I'm swamped and I will promise to update at least every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. So look forward to that lovelies. And the question of the day is
If splenda is made from sugar, tastes like sugar and LOOKS like sugar, but it isn't sugar then what the hell is it?
