Chapter 28: Last Day at the Beach
"Suki Emiko its time for you both to get your lazy butts out of bed." Temari said, turning on the bedroom light, "You both are going to spend the day with your Uncles while your father and I spend some time alone."
Emiko shot up from her bed, "What?!" She asked, looking at her mom, a very lazy/tired look on her face, "I thought they went back to Suna already." she yawned.
Temari shook her head, "They didn't leave already, but they do plan on leaving tomorrow and would like to spend some time with you two and your brother before going back." She then walked over to Suki, whom was still sleeping, and pulled the covers off her, "Now get up before I have your Uncle Gaara send his sand in here."
Suki sighed as she slowly sat up, "Cant they just come over here and wait for us to get up…?" Temari shook her head, and Suki got out of bed, "Fine…shesh this is such a drag." She then began to slowly get dressed.
After the twins and their brother, Daichi, got up and dressed they were all taken to were their Uncles were staying at, while Temari and Shikamaru went out to spend the day alone.
Temari and Shikamaru walked away from Gaara and Kankuro's hotel, "So…what are we going to do today?" Temari asked as she looked at Shikamaru, "And don't say stay at home and play Shogi….I want to get out of the house without any kids to watch over, or any dippers to change." She said, wrapping her arms around his.
"I don't know…I was hoping to go home and take a long nap." Shikamaru said, in a sarcastic tone, only to get hit by Temari in the chest, "I was only joking Temari….shesh" he said, rubbing where she had smacked him at.
"No you weren't, you would rather take a nap then be outside at the beach with me." Temari pointed out, then sighed, "And here I thought you would want a day with your wife without any kids around."
Shikamaru stopped walking, causing Temari to also stop, he looked and her and said, "Its not that I don't want to spend the day with you Temari, its just I don't want OTHER guys to spend the day watching you at the beach."
Temari smiled and kissed Shikamaru, "That's sweet Shikamaru, but you really don't have to worry. I would rather be with a crybaby like you then some tanned beach guy here." She assured her husband, "Besides, it would be way too troublesome to start dating again." She said, mimicking Shikamaru's lazy tone.
Shikamaru shook his head, "Alright violent woman, we'll go to the beach." he sighed as the two of them began walking towards the sandy beach.
"First, lets make a pit stop at the hotel." Temari said, as she began to head towards the hotel room, Shikamaru following behind her.
"Uh…Temari, what do you have to do at the hotel? I mean, cant it wait…we don't know how long your brothers can handle both girls and Daichi." Shikamaru sighed again, wondering what she wanted to do so badly that it couldn't wait.
Temari smiled back at the wondering Nara, "Don't worry Shikamaru, you'll see once we get there." She then turned back around and walked into the hotel room, closing the door just before Shikamaru could walk in.
"Hey! What was that-" HE then tired to open the door, but it was locked, "Temari….Temari come on and open the door." He said, knocking on the door, after realizing he was missing his room key.
"Just a minute Shikamaru" Temari shouted, walking around the main room, picking up a few things, "I'm almost done."
Shikamaru sighed once more, "You gotta be kidding me, Temari your not cleaning are you?" he crossed his arms, looking up into the sky, "I cant believe you would-"
"I'm ready" Temari said, opening the door, and walking out with something in her arms.
Shikamaru raised his eyebrow at her as he saw an object in her arms, "What's that for?" he asked, his arms crossed over his chest.
"Well…." Temari began walking towards the beach, Shikamaru following behind her, "I thought it would be nice if we had an interesting game of Shogi at the beach." She laughed slightly, "I figured since Suki can beat you, that maybe I'll be-" her body suddenly froze and turned around facing, the smiling/intelligent Nara, "Shikamaru, how many times do I have to tell you not to use Shadow Possesion on me."
Shikamaru kept his smile on his face, and began walking towards her, causing her to walk towards him, "Since when do I listen to a troublesome woman like you." he stopped walking once the two were extremely close to each other.
"Sh-Shikamaru…what are you--not out in the open." She stuttered turning a bright red on her cheeks.
"Heh, what's wrong Temari…did I find your weakness?" Shikamaru asked lifting one arms, causing Temari to do the same thing, he then placed the hand behind Temari's head, causing her to place her hand behind his.
Temari raised an eyebrow at her husband, "Weakness…I don't have-"
He interrupted her by kissing her, then letting his Jutsu drop mid-kiss. Shikamaru smiled at Temari, "What was that about not having a weakness."
The blonde haired Jonin smacked the dark haired Jonin on the chest again, "Don't ever use your Jutsu on me again!" she then turned around and walked the rest of the way to the sandy beach.
The two sat down on the beach, and played a few games of Shogi, then laid back and watched the sun set.
As for Kankuro and Gaara….well they sure weren't bored…lets start from when th kids were dropped off at their Uncles hotel.
Suki and Emiko walked into their Uncles hotel room, both letting out a loud annoyed tired sigh. Its not that they didn't enjoy spending time with their Uncles, its just that they would of both enjoyed a little more sleep.
Temari handed Daichi to Gaara, because Kankuro was know to drop little things that tend to wiggle….it was a good thing Gaara's sand caught Suki before she hit the ground, that was both the first and last time Kankuro ever held a baby.
"So if you guys need any help, don't hesitate to call if you need us." Temari said, as her and Shikamaru left the hotel room.
Gaara stared down at Daichi as he stared up into Gaara's deep blue eyes. The two stared at each other for the longest time, until Suki broke the silence, "So, what are we going to do today?" she asked, letting off a hint of boredom.
Kankuro walked over to the twins, "Well, we're gonna….uh…well…" He scratched the back of his head, and looked back at Gaara, "What are we gonna do?"
"I know!" Emiko shouted, throwing her hands in the air, jumping up and down, "I saw this big park with a lot of really big rides…can we go there?" She asked, looking at both Uncles.
"You want to go to a theme park?" Gaara asked, trying to keep Daichi from pulling on his crimson red hair.
Emiko nodded, "Yukio said that his dad took him there a few nights ago, and he told me it was a lot of fun. She said, imagining herself riding on the fun rides.
"Em, we cant go to a theme park, they don't allow babies on the rides. What are we suppose to do, have someone sit aside and hold him while the others ride the rides?" Suki asked, her arms crossed.
"No Suki, Kiba and Hinata had Mieko, but they still went." Emiko pointed out.
"Sorry Emiko, but going to a theme park is something you do with your parents." Gaara said, as he watched Daichi pull on his clothes, placing them in his mouth.
"What's wrong little brother, afraid of the rides?" Kankuro asked, elbowing Gaara in the side, "I say we take them…you know Shikamaru will say something like-"
"what a drag." Suki sighed.
Kankuro nodded, "Exactly Suki. And Temari wouldn't let the girls ride any rides."
"That's not what I meant Uncle Kanky, I was saying that if we went it would be a drag." Suki said, closing her eyes.
"Then you and Uncle Gaara sit aside, while Uncle Kanky and I ride the rides." Emiko said with a smile on her face.
After a while of debating, they ended up going to the theme park. As they walked inside the parks gates, Emiko's eye lit up like a small kid in a candy store as she looked at all the giant rides. "This…This is AMAZING!" She shouted, then looked back at her Uncles, "What are we gonna ride first?!" She asked.
Kankuro had just about the same look as Emiko on his face as he looked around at the rides, "Lets ride that one first…it looks like fun.!"
That said and the two ran off towards the small roller coaster, leaving Suki and Gaara behind with Daichi. The two looked at each other, then slowly walked up to the ride as Emiko and Kankuro got on the ride.
Suki shook her head, "Something bad is gonna happen…I can just feel it." She sighed to herself. "Aww man…what a drag."
Gaara couldn't help but nod in agreement with the young Nara, as the ride started.
As the day went on, Kankuro and Emiko had rode just about every ride they were able to ride, except for one. Emiko ran over to the ride, "Come on Uncle Kanky! Lets ride this one now!" she shouted, pointing at the ride.
Kankuro let out a sigh, and shook his head, "I….I think we've rode en-enough rides….Emiko…lets take a rest for now." he said, trying to catch his breath…
"Aww come on Uncle Kanky…" She then looked at the red haired male, "Will you ride the ride with me…pllleeeeaaaaasssssssseeee" She pleased, her little pouty face that got her whatever she wanted on.
Gaara sighed, he might have been able to resist a lot of things, but when it came to Emiko and her pouty face, he was like Kankuro to puppets…couldn't say no, he then looked at the ride, this was one of the big roller coasters, he then let out another sigh, and looked back down at Emiko, "You sure you want to ride this ride" he asked, and Emiko nodded with a big smile on her face, "Fine…we'll ride it…once." he said.
Kankuro stood and walked over to Gaara holding out his hands, "I'll hold Daichi while you ride the ride." he said. Gaara shook his head, and created a small carrier out of sand for the baby while he walked on to the large roller coaster with Emiko.
Emiko had a giant smile on her face as the two were being strapped on the ride, "Thank you soooo much Uncle Gaara for going on this ride with me!!"
Gaara was already dreading the fact that he gave in and went of the ride….after everyone was strapped into the ride, it went off…going threw loops and upside down, then falling straight down wards. The ride was short, it lasted about a minute, but that was the longest minute ever for Gaara…he didn't enjoy the ride very much.
Once it stopped, he got off helping Emiko, whom was still smiling, and the two walked over to the others, Gaara shaking his head, "Kankuro, you're going on the rest of the rides…." He said, his normal skin a very pasty pale color.
Kankuro laughed at the way his brother looked, and nodded, but luck would have it that after that ride Emiko was tired and wanted to get something to eat…they didn't ride anymore rides after Gaara's ride, and they all headed back to the hotel room and waited for Temari and Shikamaru to pick up the kids.
-End of chapter…okay I know I said the last chapter was the last day at the beach, but I got the idea of Temari and Shikamaru spending the day alone at the beach from Shikagirl1990 on FanFic…so thank you for the idea, and then I thought…well I haven't put Gaara and Kankuro in here since the first time they went to the beach…and even then they weren't in it that much, so I wanted to give them some time…then I HAD to put Gaara on a roller coaster…so I hope you guys like this chapter, and once again thank you to all the people who read and review this story…until next time-
