Temari couldn't believe how hectic the past couple of months were. Pregnancy scare, Miro, chunin exams and just being a ninja with a shit ton of missions, all added to the enormous amount of stress she had to endure. But as she laid in this extra soft bed, she couldn't help but to feel relaxed. It was almost perfect, except for the fact that the lazy ass who was clinging to her body last night, was nowhere to be found this morning.
So she threw the covers off, yawning as loud as possible while stretching her arms over her head before heading downstairs to look for Shikamaru.
"You're finally up" Shikamaru teased as Temari made her way to the kitchen, forcefully plopping her body unto one of the chairs at the kitchen table.
"Whatever Nara" Temari rolled her eyes playfully, before noticing him bring a huge stack of pancakes. As he slid the plate in front of her, Temari noticed that he made them the way she liked: filled with blueberries. "Why the hell didn't you wake me up?"
"Did you forget what day it is?" Shikamaru watched as Temari cut the pancakes into four pieces, hurrying to swipe a piece before she could stop him.
"Obviously it's going to be your last if you touch my food again. You know I don't play about my meals Nara." Although she tried to keep a serious composure, Shikamaru could see that smirk appearing on her face.
"Although that day seems special, that's not the right answer." Shikamaru said as he took a seat across from her, sipping his mug full of black coffee.
"Let me guess" Temari ate a piece of pancake, waving her fork around as she pretended to think of an fake answer. "It's the day my lazy ass boyfriend changes his habits."
"Come on Tem." Shikamaru pleaded for her to stop avoiding the subject because he was a hundred percent sure that she knew the right answer.
"I just don't want to think about it Shika, it's kinda hard to say goodbye." Temari dropped the fork, not really in the mood to eat anymore, or have this discussion. It was her last day in Konoha before she had to return to Suna. She wasn't exactly sure why her boyfriend was so excited for this day, but she was dreading it.
"You're acting like it's the end of the world-" Shikamaru tried to explain the positives of this beautiful day, but instead he was met with Temari's saddened voice.
"Leaving You is hard, that's all. But I guess I still do live in Suna." Temari looked down, knowing that she was blushing brightly. She didn't like this feeling of vulnerability, and as long as they had been dating, she thought this would have surpassed.
"You don't have to look down everytime you blush, ya know. As much as you blush when you're around me, you're probably going to end up with neck problems."
"Shut up Shikamaru, I'm serious. I'm just stuck. I don't want to leave my brothers, but at the same time I don't want to leave you. And I know the more time I spend thinking about it the harder everything's going to be for me."
"I told you, I can always move to Suna-"
"Not happening Nara. I know it's just logically best for me to move here, and trust me, I really do want to live here. It just hurts knowing that I'll have to be away from my brothers."
"Tem, let's not focus on that. I had planned a shit ton of activities that Temari likes to do, just so your last day in Konoha wouldn't be all depressing." Shikamaru had wanted to take Temari to all her favorite spots, and take her out to eat, just so Temari could feel good before she has to leave.
"Well I hope they were all indoor activities..." Temari stood up and headed to the huge window that was right above the kitchen sink. "Because it's pouring outside." Shikamaru was in disbelief, but as he went and stood right next to Temari he would see the rain pouring down.
"I got up early just to watch the news so I could know the weather. I guess it's not so accurate yet" Shikamaru let out a loud sigh, irritated that everything he planned was ruined.
"Well with all the new technology, it's been way better than what we had five years ago. And since it seems we're stuck inside we might as well pop some popcorn and put on a movie." Temari chuckled, but she could tell Shikamaru was disappointed by this.
"But-" Shikamaru knew that he couldn't hide the pout on his face. He wanted Temari to be completely stress-free when she returned to Suna, and by taking her do to her favorite things in Konoha was a sure way to achieve his goal.
"I'll be back Shika, like you said, it isn't the end of the world." Temari placed a kiss on his cheek, knowing that would take the pout off his face. Just by his reaction to the rain, Temari could tell how much this day meant to him and how much he wanted to do this for her. But just watching movies would suffice. "Now let's stop wasting the day."
