A/N: Shikamaru springs into action!

"What do you think of marriage?" Temari queried casually.

"I don't," Shikamaru replied, looking up at the girl whose lap he was lying on.

"Did I ever tell you that somehow Gaara found out about us sleeping together?" she commented, trying to keep a straight face.

"Really?" Shikamaru's eyes widened.

"Really," Temari nodded.

"How does a summer wedding sound?" Shikamaru asked.

"Summer is going to be over in a week," Temari rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, the sooner the better!" Shikamaru exclaimed, shooting her a shaky smile.

"You're scared of my little brother," Temari accused him.

"Definitely," Shikamaru admitted.
