A couple of months had passed since the incident and now Temari had a glimpse of the Konoha gate and in the distance she could see a figure that resembled a pineapple.

By time she made it to the gates, Shikamaru yawned and put a hand behind his head.

"Long time no see, troublesome"

"Back at ya, crybaby" She said forgetting that she was suppose to be mad, which reminded her to hit him with her fan.

"Ouch, what was that for"

"Forgetting to send a letter. You messed up the timing"

"I was called to a mission"

"I takes five minutes to write a letter, you ass"

"How about I make it up to you"

"How"

"Top model comes on tonight and it's the season finale so we get to see who wins. We can watch it at my place"

"Are you asking my sister out on a date Nara"

Shikamaru was so focused on Temari, that he hadn't noticed Kankuro come up behind them.

"No, she was being troublesome and I thought of a way to make her less troublesome"

"Well Tem, I'll go tell the Hokage you're here"

"Why are you being so nice, I'm the one who's suppose to be working, this is your vacation"

"Because I have some unfinished business to take care of" He winked at her and began to walk off.

'Her and Nara were made for each other, why are they acting like they don't see it' Kankuro didn't like anyone trying to hit on his sister, but he felt Shikamaru was an exception. His efforts with the war, his intelligence, and the fact that he is the only guy his sister didn't push away were reasons he liked Shikamaru despite the fact that he is lazy and smokes like a chimney.

After they went to pick up some Ramen to watch during the show, they made their way back to Shikamaru's apartment and sat on his couch to watch TV.

"I told you she would win"

"Yea whatever. The whole show is such a drag anyway"

"You're just mad because the other girl lost" She looked out the window and saw it was pretty late.

"I should be heading home, Kankuro's probably waiting for me"

"I'll walk you home. A woman shouldn't be walking by herself at night"

"Still chauvinistic I see"

"Come on"

They walked in silence, but as they arrived, they saw Kankuro talking to some girl in front of the inn. Temari didn't know the girl, but she looked familiar.

"Who is that"

"That's Hana"

"Who"

"Kiba's sister"

"I knew him and Kiba were close, but his sister is a whole different story"

Temari and Shikamaru watched the two interact from behind a building.

"I had fun tonight"

"As the guy, It is my job to make sure you do have fun"

"Well I hope we can do it again sometime"

"I hope so too"

Kankuro's lips quickly found hers and she wrapped her hands behind his neck, deepening the kiss.

"I have to go, I have to work early in the morning. But I'll call you sometime"

They waited until Kankuro had went in before coming from behind the building. Temari had left the key with him, so she had to knock on the door. Kankuro answered, without makeup and in pajamas.

"That was fast" Temari found this was the perfect time to get back at him for going through her letters.

"What was"

"You getting dressed for bed after your little make out session"

"Tem, I was here the whole night"

"Here with Hana. So how long have you guys been going out"

"We aren't going out, we were just catching up"

"If that's what you want to call it"

"Nara what are you doing here"

"Dropping me off, well I'll see you later Shika" This was the first time she had ever called him that. It felt Natural to her and she didn't even realize that she said it.

"Good night Tem"

Kankuro shut the door and smiled at his sister.

"Shika? What happened to crybaby, lazyass"

"It was something different, he's not always those things"

"Someone has a boyfriend"

"Kankuro, shut up. I'm going to take a bath"

oooooooooo
