A Troublesome Love

Why am I here? I am always here. Looking through this window that separate us? I can just barge in and take what I think I already claimed as mine. The stranger thought as it sat on a branch looking through the window of an apartment building.

The moon was high and a beautiful starry and cloudless night. One that this person loved. As the moon started to move slowly the light shone on the person.

It was impossible that this person, whom everyone knew would not go to such lengths to see anything or anyone. It was Shikamaru. He was currently off from any missions that where assigned to him.

He sighed deeply again. He looked up to the sky and closed his eyes. He prayed to Kami-sama.

Why me? Why did I have to fall in love with her? The vixen, sweet, caring, strong, passionate, smart, pink-haired and green eyed girl. Sakura Haruno. I thought in time I would fall in love with Ino. But my heart, is the one who chooses to love not my brain.

He was hoping that this was just some lustful thought. But no, every night he would come here. The 1st time he did, he was lost. She had come out of a shower with only a towel on. He looked and like what he had seen. Sure Ino had a great body but nothing compared to Sakura. She was a…a…to put lightly, a goddess. Her skin so creamy that he thought it would melt and her lips so full and vibrant Her-he couldn't go on. If he did he might lose himself.

He never ever lost himself. This was a 1st and he didn't like it at all. He hated the way she smiled that made him want to smile back or melt. He hated the way that even the slightest contact of skin would send shivers up his spine or as if he felt like he was being shocked. He hated everything about her because… it made him confused.

He hated being confused. He always like being on top of things, even when things go bad, he always knew what to do. But with her, he didn't. He heard a noise and looked at his watch: 9:30. Humph, the things he would do too see her. He would have been asleep and doing nothing right now.

He looked through the window and saw…her. She was coming out of the shower with again only a towel around her bust and a towel in her hair. He saw as she gracefully pulled the towel out of her hair and let it fall. She had grown her hair back but not to regular length. Long enough to put into a pony tail yet short enough to let it dry itself.

The window was open and he could smell the shampoo that she used and make him go crazy. Strawberries and Kiwi's. He wanted so badly to go and run his hands through her soft silky hair. Then, the rest of the world was gone in a moment when she let the towel drop.

He tightly gripped the branch from letting him go through the window and kissing her. Her body shone in the moonlight, bouncing off into his eyes. Her whole body, soul and brains where beautiful.

Inside the bedroom

Sakura knew he was outside. She liked it how he would come and she would just show a little a night to see how long until he lost his control and came in. This has been going on for a week and she knew he was braking down.

Tonight no matter what, he was going to come right through that window she oh so purposely left open. It was a beautiful summer night. A night of romance of 2 lovers.

She had lost her love for Sasuke a while ago. After that, she knew she could do better. The whole village and her friends and teachers saw her true form. Her intelligent mind helped with her growth. She changed, she had gotten stronger than before, wiser, faster and more deadly. Only after all her transformation did Sasuke truly want Sakura back.

She wouldn't have it. All her friends knew what would happen. She almost killed Sasuke. If it wasn't for Neji and Naruto pulling her off of him, he would have been 6 feet under even before killing his brother. They were impressed and happy for Sakura. Not only did she do so well, she wasn't the same little weak frail girl who went after Sasuke. She had grown into a beautiful powerful and smart woman.

Then came Shikamaru. She knew that deep down somewhere in her heart, just waiting to come out after Sasuke did she then realize that she had loved Shikamaru for all this time. She loved his look, he was smart, strong, lazy but in a good way, proud, caring when he shows it, wise and very good looking.

Well, now to let him come in. I hope that with all my heart he feels the same way and that we will come in. Please Kami-Sama! I'm begging you! Please?! She started to walk towards the open window.

Outside

Shikamaru watched her every move. He saw walk slowly toward the window with her towel in her hands over herself. It didn't help him.

He saw her stop right in-front of the window and said "It's a beautiful night no? Would you like to come in…Shika-kun?" Her voice sounded musical and light. Her eyes shone amusement and something else….mischief.

He gulped and sweat started to appear on his forehead How did she know?! I hide everything from her yet she still saw me! She really did improve. I hope she doesn't hurt me, but heh, I can take it. Wait, why am I worried? I hate this

He jumped from his branch and landed on the edge of the window. He then let one leg dangle over her floor and took of his shoes.

Sakura sat there and watch as he took of his shoes to come inside. He was so gentle and caring.

Once he left his shoes to the side he jumped down and looked straight at her. She patted the bed indicating his to sit beside her. He sighed and walked over and sat. He felt movement beside him and a weight on his shoulder. Sakura had her head leaned on him. He turned a light shade of pink and scowled.

Sakura giggled at this and took his hand. She was shocked to see that his hand tighten around her hand. His was so big and strong yet soft as a babies skin. Shikamaru's brain was in over time. What was going to come next? What happened? Why did he do that? IS she smiling? Why did she giggle? Why did she do that?

"Shikamaru" brought him out of his thoughts. He looked down and saw Sakura looking up at him. "Hmmmm?" he asked calmly. On the inside he was nervous. "Why are you always outside my window? Aren't you cold?" she asked.

He looked out at the night and sighed. He had hoped that he wouldn't have to tell her. He felt little fingers fun up his neck toward his ponytail. Over time, it had gone bigger and longer till he cut it off and did it again. Her fingers felt soft and warm. He shivered under her touch. "W-what are you d-doing? Ssakura?" he asked breathlessly. "I just wanted to see what you look like with your hair down" she whispered in his ear. His hair smell great to her. It smelled of the woods yet calm and wet but a nice smell. Firm yet gentle.

She played with his hair and ran her fingers through it. She never knew that it would feel this soft. She loved every minute. Shikamaru thought he was in heaven. He was growing even more weak by the second. The way she ran her fingers through his hair was just too much. He looked up and saw her. The towel was slowly slipping down.

He gulped. "Shika?" He tried to open his eyes and looked and saw a beautiful green. "Hai?" "I just wanted to tell, you that the day you came I knew and I…..I….Love you" she said. Shikamaru wasn't sure what she just said. "Pardon?" Sakura instantly felt her heart drop. "Shika-kun, I know this might feel like a heavy burden but, I love you. All this time my heart knew that I loved you and no one else" Shikamaru wiped around and crushed her towards his defined chest.

She gasped. His head was on top of her head and his arms around her slim round waist. "Sakura, I hate it when you make me confused, I also hate, how I'm lonely without seeing you everyday of my life. I want you, and you only. I'm not good a sharing never was and never will be. Sakura I can't tell you-"Shoo, I understand Shika" Sakura said. She looked up into his face and he looked down. The moon was right behind them and it looked perfect. They leaned in for the kiss. It was gentle at first then it grew even more wild every moment.

Soon they let go to catch their breath. They both collapsed on the bed breathing heavily. "So troublesome you Sakura. Never would I do this for a girl, so very troublesome. But for you, anything. I'd do anything" Sakura smiled and kissed his nose. She giggled before saying "Well do you want to sleep here or go back home?" He stuck his nose in the air and said "Hmph, going back home is so troublesome and I'm tired so I'm sleeping in your bed"

He slipped his shirt off and everything except his boxers and climbed into bed. Sakura giggled again at his actions. He sat up in bed and asked "Are you coming?" "Hold on! I have to at least put something on!" "I'd prefer you just like that" he mumbled. "Hmmm maybe later" she laughed. She got some underwear and a pair of tight t-shirt plain red and tight short short's with sexy on the but side.

"Good night Shika-kun" "YAWNNight Sakura" He put his arms around her waist and drifted off to sleep peaceful. Sakura watched for a little bit before putting her head to his chest, reasling a heavy sigh and slept peacfully without dreams of being alone without him.

They both fell asleep in their lovers embrace.
