A/N: Yo people, another chapter. Why? because it's a shorty like I said. Actually apart from the very first 2 chapters, this is the shortest chapter I wrote for this story O.o...It's still nice tho, I think. People probably wanted more fluff and have me make it longer, but Shikamaru must not go OOC and suddenly be a romantic casanova who does everything for Temari and such(Ya know, Shikamaru still needs to be the 'troublesome' char. who finds the entire world too troublesome XP) Anyway, thnx for the reviews again. Down below I'll add some Youma Omake again for you all to enjoy so don't forget to read that! Now let's get on with the story!
Chapter 22: Surprises Are Not Troublesome!
Shikamaru was lying on a long stretched out grassfield, enjoying what he always enjoyed. The endless blue sky and the white fluffy clouds in it. Today was a 'troublesome-free' day as he liked to call it. For today, he had no missions or Temari that wanted to make out with him and cuddle. Shikamaru enjoyed all of that and Temari's company ofcourse, but most of the time his blonde girlfriend from Sand would demand attention from him when he just wanted to watch clouds float by. She also enjoyed watching clouds with him, that was one of the things he really liked about her.
However, there were times where it would get troublesome when Temari was watching clouds with him. She would suddenly would get excited, jump in front of Shikamaru's cloud watching view, and seductively started to undress herself in front of his eyes. That was the only thing that Shikamaru could absolutely not ignore so he had no choice but to submit to Temari's wishes at those moments.
But today he would have none of that, which finally gave his body some rest in that department. Temari was out shopping with the money she earned at the club of Naruto and Gaara, so there were no interuptions to his cloud watching today.
"The clouds are nice today...And such a nice breeze as well..." Shikamaru said smiling as he closed his eyes.
"Shi-----ka----ku------n----!" Echoed trough Shikamaru's ears, his eyes going wide open at the sound of it.
"Oof..." Shikamaru was pinned down to the ground.
"Hiya cutie." Temari said smiling as she kissed Shikamaru.
"Hey, weren't you off to shop the entire day?" Shikamaru asked. Temari looked annoyed at him, making him wonder what he did wrong.
"What's wrong, Temari?" Shikamaru asked.
"That's ALL you have to say when I come and surprise you?" She asked in return.
"It's not that I'm not glad to see you; But I expected you to be shopping the entire day so I thought I could watch clouds the whole day while you were off doing what you liked." Shikamaru answered and let out a sigh.
"Well that's actually why I came!" Temari said cheerful once more.
"Huh...You interupted your shopping to watch clouds all day with me?" Shikamaru asked as he looked questioningly at her. Temari pulled herself up from Shikamaru and pulled him up as well.
"Not exactly, I have a something for you." Temari said smiling.
"What...?"The Nara genius looked confused at her.
"Come on! I've got a very, very nice surprise for you!" Temari said smiling as she pulled Shikamaru along with her.
"I don't like surprises..." Shikamaru complained.
"Why not?" Temari asked surprised.
"Because surprise are troublesome..." Shikamaru stated.
"This one isn't, trust me!" Temari replied still widely smiling.
"Why does every bone, muscle, fiber in my body think otherwise then?" Shikamaru thought as Temari continued to pull him trough the streets of Konoha. They stopped in front of a hotel, that had a name and slogan Shikamaru didn't exactly like.
"Icha...Icha...Paradise...Hotel...Where all your romantic dreams can come true..." Shikamaru read out loud.
"Yeah I don't like the name and slogan either...But it was the only place I could make your special surprise!" She said excited.
"Now I know for sure it's troublesome..." Shikamaru said and let out a sigh.
"Come on, let's head in already!" Temari said as she pushed Shikamaru into the hotel.
"Hi, I reserved a room under the Nara name." Temari greeted the woman behind the desk.
"Ow I see, top floor. You have no luggage right?" The woman asked.
"No not at all, unless you count this guy in." Temari said smiling as she pinched Shikamaru's cheeks. The woman giggled and handed the key of the room over to Temari.
"Come, Shika-kun...You'll absolutely love it!" Temari cheered as she pulled Shikamaru after her.
"What kind of troublesome thing would I love in a hotelroom aside from you?" Shikamaru asked.
"You'll see." Temari said as she dragged him up the stairs. When they reached the top floor, Temari put her hands infront of Shikamaru's eyes and guided him towards the room.
"Alright now don't try to peek until I've opened the door." Temari said excited.
"Yes, yes..." Shikamaru replied and kept his eyes closed. Temari opened the door and walked back behind Shikamaru.
"Alright, you can look now..." Temari said, hugging Shikamaru. Shikamaru opened his eyes and was kind of shocked with what he saw.
"Cl...Clouds!" Shikamaru exclaimed as he looked a room that looked like it was high up in the sky.
"Well what you think?" Temari asked smiling.
"Amazing, the clouds on the wall are even moving and the ceiling is made out of glass..." Shikamaru said amazed.
"Tem-chan...Why did you go trough such a troublesome thing to make this for me?" Shikamaru asked.
"Because I love you, you dimwit." Temari said as she hugged Shikamaru and gave him a peck on the cheek.
"I see..." Shikamaru said and let out a sigh.
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Temari instantly yelled after Shikamaru sighed. Shikamaru looked surprised at her, again wondering what he did wrong.
"I go trough all the trouble to arrange this for us and you are still not satisfied! What the hell are you thinking!" Temari yelled.
"I-It's not that...It's just that I never did such a thing for you, so I feel kind of bad...It would be to troublesome for me to not be satisfied with all what you have done." Shikamaru replied and Temari looked some what shocked at Shikamaru.
"...S-sorry I yelled at you..." Temari said as she looked down towards the floor.
"It's fine, I should've spoken my thoughts out loud." Shikamaru said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"So, how about we make ourselves comfortable on that bed?" Temari asked as she closed the door.
"Yeah." Shikamaru replied as he let himself fall down on the bed. Temari crawled up next to him and laid her arm over his chest.
"Ne, Tem-chan...I know you love me, but that isn't the only reason why you did this, right?" Shikamaru asked.
"I wanted to spend time with you..." Temari answered.
"Ofcourse you do, you always want to be with me." Shikamaru replied.
"And I know I demand a lot of your attention when you just want to relax...But I really need the attention from you...I want to feel important to you..." Temari said as she placed her head on Shikamaru's chest instead of his shoulder.
"Now whose dimwitted...You know you're important to me..." Shikamaru stated as he put his hands behind his head.
"I know...but I also need a lot of that special attention, since I'm a girl that really needs that kind of attention a lot." Temari replied.
"And you know I give that kind of attention to you as well, but I still want to relax and watch clouds as well." Shikamaru said.
"That's why I did this." Temari said as she got up from Shikamaru.
"Temari, You arranged this so I could watch clouds with you in total peace, right? Please wait untill tonight for that kind of attention." Shikamaru said.
"No I won't wait! I've planned this perfectly! You can enjoy your cloud watching, while I get that kind of attention!" Temari said as she bend over and grabbed something from underneath the bed.
"Why did you bring your fan here...? AH! You're not going to threaten me with wacking me with that thing if I don't give you THAT kind of attention, now do you!" Shikamaru said shocked.
"I would never do such a thing to my beloved Shika-kun." Temari said as she stuck the her fan vertically up between the mattres and the bed's end.
"Then what?" Shikamaru asked as Temari took of her dress. She folded it up nicely and placed it down beside the bed. Now in her netshirt, she sat down on Shikamaru. She smiled at him with a glare that told Shikamaru that she had something 'bad' in mind. Shikamaru's thoughts where confirmed when she hold up a large piece of rope.
"Don't tie me up too hard, k?" Temari said smiling with a blush on her face. Shikamaru blinked at her being quite surprised what his girlfriend was thinking.
"So you still think surprises are troublesome?" Temari asked in a naughty tone as Shikamaru rose up from the bed.
"...Surprises like this aren't troublesome." Shikamaru answered as Temari pulled him closer towards her.
Meanwhile a certain camera, hidden in the corner of the room, zoomed in.
"Oi, Shino...Are you getting this? This will be worth to draw!" Jiraiya said as he pervertedly looked at the tv screen with Shikamaru and Temari on it.
"That's what you said about the last 15 couples as well!" Shino exclaimed as his hands rushed over the paper, drawing as fast as he could.
"Come on, this is the kind of drawing that get's you a bonus." Jiraiya said. Shino's shades sparkled and he quickly turned the page of his sketchbook and began drawing Shikamaru and Temari.
"Hehehe...Looks like you teens know what's good these days..." Jiraiya said grinning.
Shukaku: Ow yeah! Who'se your kinky woman from sand! Who is it! Who is it!
Kyuubi: ...Your container's sister?
Shukaku:Bingo baby! And you know what that means (grins)
Kyuubi: Hah, I'll beat you in that factor anyway...just you wait...
Shukaku: Hehehe...Not really, did I forgot to mention she still head he forehead protector on (grins again)
Kyuubi: That ain't something special...
Shukaku: You know it gives me points and you hate it!
Kyuubi: Then...I wonder if I should make that kid of yours have nightmares...
Shukaku: Wait you don't mean...
Kyuubi: ...That's right, she's up next and then that Hyuuga kid (fox grin)
Shukaku: Wait...(ponders) When will I get a turn again then?
Kyuubi: Once you've beaten me with Rock, Paper Siccors...
Shukaku: Crap...Lets ponder and play rock paper siccors...
Kyuubi: Yeah...We still need some more stuff...Else it be unfair for you...
A/N: Well so much for this chapter, hope you enjoyed it even though it was quite short...Next chapter will be Gaara xKisune as I said before, which will most likely be longer then this one and less suggestive and more romantic(that's what I'm going to try anyway...) then next we have a short chapter again with Neji and Tenten and in both these chapters there will be some devolpment for Naruto pairings as well and a Naruto chapter of some sort, then after that we have a chapter that is partly made up by one of you people, can't find your name now since my ISP is annoying me...but you'll receive credits for it in that chapter! It's the thing with Kiba's sis. Then after that we have the last fun with Akatsuki for this story, I think. After that A few more things I'll keep secret from you, most likely 4 chapters or so and then we're starting the end of the story. so...about 12 more chapters to go I guess. Unless I get more idea's that I can include in this story and don't want to keep for my next one, lol.
Anyway next chapter will be up in a few day or maybe longer, dunno for sure...Take care and review again I'd say!
