Chapter 6: Will You Go to Dinner With Me?

With Shikamaru and Temari...

"Here, CATCH!" Temari threw a couple of costumes at the poor Nara.

"hmfmosjtrugurm" exclaimed the blob of cloth formaly known a Shikamaru.

Temari stopped to look at the blob. "Did you say something?" She tilted her head to the side.

Shikamaru dropped the costumes. " I said how troublesome."

She still didn't quite get it.

He sighed, "The costumes, they're troublesome to carry."

"Oh, here, I'll take some of those." She bent down and picked up about half of the costumes. "Is that good?'

He obviously looked confused. Why the hell was she being so nice to him? (A/N: just take a wild guess, or look at the summary)

"Lets give this crap to Iruka-sensei and get outta here!" Temari strutted off to find Iruka, costumes in hand.

Shikamaru followed shortly after her, deeply thinking 'What oes she want, geez, shes acting really excited for some troublesome reason, huh,oh well, this detention will be over soon.' He sighed and followed the blonde to where Iruka was giving instructions to the younger stuents inthe play.

"You, scene 4, GO!" Iruka called out to the students on stage.

"Iruka-sensei, here are the costumes." Temari sat the costumes down on the chair next to Iruka, followed by Shika's stack of costumes.

"Oh, arigato you two. You may leave now, its getting late and I'll save the reat of the tasks for tomorrows detention. Goodbye!"

The two seniors nodded and headed for the door.

"Hey, Shikamaru, is it?" Temari asked as the two grabbed their bookbags.

"Hn"

"Well, I still have to get dinner before I meet up with Gaara, would you like to come with me? I'd rather not eat alone." A tint of light pink softly appeared on her cheeks.

"Uh.. sure." A little shocked by her question.

"Cool. Um... we could go grab something at the food stand a few blocks away."

"Sure, I'd don't really care where we eat."

"Great!" Temari chirped. The two of them walked out of the theater together.

----

Kankuro glared at his older sister, he had heard what she had just done, he was not happy. Neither him or Gaara liked the lazy Nara Shikamaru and didn't want their sister around him, especially if she'd start to like-like him.

"Heh, Gaara will not be happy about this, and Temari has already gotten on his bad side with that flirtaciousness of hers. This'll be interesting..." Kankuro smirked and went back to work.

----

(5:30pm)

Now Shikamaru and Temari were at the food stand ordering their meals...

"Um..I'll have, no...uh...could you order first Shika?" Temari smiled at him with the half of her face that wasn't hidden behind the menue.

'Did she just call me-' Shikamaru shook himself "Oh, sure, I'll have some udon. Now you may order."

"Okay, I think I know what I want to eat now." She closed the menu. "I'll have some nikujaga, please."

"Your meals will be out in a moment." The weighter left the couple to themselves.

"Arigato." The two said in unison.

"So, um.. when do you have to meet Gaara?" Shikamaru asked politely.

"Oh, I think around six thirty is what he said. I left Kankuro the car so he could go strait to meet Gaara, I didn't want Gaara to be mad if we were both late bacause of me, I'm periodicly late.Heheh." (A/N: They took Shikamaru's car)

"Oh." 'Why is she being so nice, she wasn't like this in the begining of detention...'

"Here is your food." The weighter handed Temari and Shikamaru their food and sat down the bill in between them.

Temari emediately started shuveling her food into her mouth, as Shikamaru ate his food at a slower pace than the very hungry blonde next to him.

It had been about 30 minutes scince the two had arrived they had already finished their dinner and were talking...

(6:00pm)

" Here, I'll pay." Shikamaru pulled out his wallet.

"You sure, I just got paid." Temari chimmed before he could pull out the money.

"I'm sure." he pulled out the amount of money due and the tip. "When do you need to meet your brothers?"

"Oh my gosh I'm late!" Temari shot up out of her chair. "Could you please drive me dowm town?"

"Okay, were downtown do you need to be?" They both walked out of the shop to Shikamaru's car.

"By Moe's Tavern, close to Maple Street." They got in the car.

Shikamaru nodded and started driving to where she needed to go.

"Thank you so so much." Teamri slouched down in the passenger's seat.

It was already dark once they reached where Temari needed to meet her brothers.

"Thanks again for comimg to dinner with me. Then Temari leaned over and kissed him on the cheek and jumped out of the car.

'Did she just-'

--------

"Your late again Temari." A sinister voice spoke, this was Gaara.

"Sorry I went to dinner and-" She said but was cut off.

"Kankuro already told me why, stay away from him, he's a neusence." the csame daek voice spoke, but this time seemed angry.

She swallowed hard, he was scaring her.

"Got it!"

She nodded.

"Good, then lets proceed with our meeting." The three walked into the shut-down tavern, keaving where they once stood to bask in the darkness of the night.
