Hope you guys enjoyed that last chapter! It can most likely be figured out that Temari thinks Shikamaru is very attractive, however his comment about Nagato and causing her to bring up a bad time in her past was questionable.
The list goes on!
Once again, I do NOT own Naruto. Enjoy!
CHAPTER 3 - The Last Lunch.. Or?
Temari met up with Ten Ten at the same bench that morning a bit earlier than usual. She was glad to finally have a friend in the school, one that could actually communicate unlike a lot of girls in her last school. Due to that fact, she was seen often with her brothers. Gaara wasn't one to talk much, and Kankuro always had drama with other guys. They were all lucky to have each other in the end.
"Hey," Ten Ten greeted. "Sleep well?"
Temari yawned, standing up from the bench, "It was alright, how about you?"
Ten Ten put her hands in the pockets of her hoodie, giving Temari an obnoxious yawn to show her that she too hadn't slept the greatest. "Kind of a little tired, also a bit sad; almost had to do another all nighter on an essay about a widowed man."
"I know how you feel." Temari responded. She immediately changed the subject as she dreaded for another sad conversation, like the one she had with Shikamaru last night when he drove her home. "So, what's on the agenda today?"
The two girls started to walk to class as they saw more people show up to the campus. As they walked inside, Ten Ten began to explain what her plans were. "Well, the room is clean and that's that," She presumed. "Don't really have any plans today, why don't we make some?"
Temari tapped her chin with her index finger, thinking until she saw a crowd of guys wearing formal outfits. She blinked, looking at Ten Ten to see if she was as confused as she was, however, Ten Ten's facial expression looked unfazed.
"Hey, Ten Ten?"
Ten Ten stopped at her tracks, looking at Temari as she sounded concerned. "Yeah? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just.. why are those boys not wearing their uniforms? I thought it was against dress code to not wear anything that said Konoha High on it?" Temari asked.
Ten Ten then raised her eyebrows, her mouth agape with a finger raised to the ceiling. She had realized she never told Temari the school tradition. "Right! Well, in our school, when any sports team has a home game, meaning they meet on Konoha grounds, they dress up for that school day as a way for people to recognize they will be playing against another school," Ten Ten explained, her face loosening up as she had another realization. "Hey! Why don't we go?"
Temari smiled, "Sure! What sport do those guys do?"
"Soccer!" Ten Ten smiled wide, "Soccer is really interesting to watch!"
Temari continued to smile, then remembered what Shikamaru told her.
'Captain of Chess, swim, and soccer.' His voice echoed in her mind.
Temari shook out of her remembrance as her and Ten Ten were about to enter the classroom, they sat on their seats with luckily no perverts being, well, perverts. She was about to ask Ten Ten a question before Jiraiya came in announcing to the whole class how their first day was.
"DID EVERYONE DO THEIR HOMEWORK?" Jiraiya followed up, causing Temari to immediately turn her head to Ten Ten. Again, Ten Ten remained unfazed, and so Temari assumed there really was no homework.
"JUST KIDDING! HAHAHA!" Jiraiya cleared up.
This blonde kid in the front then began to scream, his bag opened with a bunch of papers around his desk and chair. "WHAT THE HELL PERVY SAGE! YOU SCARED ME-"
"DIDN'T I TELL YOU NOT TO CALL ME THAT?"
Temari and Ten Ten both glanced at each other, exchanging chemistry.
It was going to be a long day.
"Hey! Sis!" Kankuro called out to his sister in the hallway, shoving some people out of his way.
Temari turned, "Behave, Kankuro. What do you want?"
"Any chance you can take care of Gaara? I'm going to the soccer game toni-"
"HAH?" Temari yelped, "I'M GOING! I ALREADY TOLD TEN TEN I WAS GOING THIS MORNING!"
"W-WELL, I WAS PLANNING TO GO SINCE LAST NIGHT!"
"LIAR!"
"AM NOT!"
The two shot glares until Baki came between them, "You two.. Get to class! You both can go, on one condition, you got to bring Gaara."
"WHAT?" The siblings cried out to their God father.
"Aye, aye, AYE! Gaara is a part of this family and so he will be a part of it!" Baki told them both.
Temari put a hand on her hip, "Oh? So where will you be?"
Baki turned red, facing away. "I-I, um.. have an important conference."
Kankuro smirked, "Oh? With who Bak-"
"NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!"
"So, her name is Temari?" A guy with extremely dark hair asked, chewing on his food before swallowing.
Ten Ten nodded, "Yup, I decided to make her feel welcomed here a bit, so she's going to be hanging around us from now on." The brunette told them, "I even told her to show up at the soccer game tonight."
"Psh, what's the point?" A guy with red face paint scoffed, "With Naruto playing as goalie, you'll all be showing up to a loss game."
"HEY!" A third guy spoke with blonde hair, "WHAT MAKES CHOJI A BETTER GOALIE THAN I AM?"
The guy with red face paint hesitated before speaking out loud, "More surface area."
"Goodness, would you guys lighten up?" Shikamaru told them, placing a hard shoulder on his two friends. "Naruto, you're fast when it comes to jumping around and Kiba, you've always been one of our best defense players on midfield, you two will be fine."
Kiba and Naruto continued to glare, as if red beams shot at each other. Shikamaru loosened his collar of his shirt, fixing his tie. 'What a drag, why couldn't they put Neji or Lee as captain? They've always been best at this type of stuff.' He thought.
"You're not thinking of why someone else should of been captain, right?" Neji asked him, facing Shikamaru strictly.
Shikamaru's face instantly went blue, feeling Kiba and Naruto's red beams of fury shoot at him instead of each other. Neji smirked, folding his hands. "N-No!" Shikamaru waved a hand in defense, the other scratching his nape nervously. "No! Not at all, I was just wondering of what Sasuke thought of all this!"
'Hmph. Liar." Neji thought.
Sasuke, the one with dark hair, pushed his plate aside and interlocked his fingers in front of his face, elbows on the table. Sasuke Uchiha was co-captains with Shikamaru, however was often talked down upon by other guys in the team for only being picked as Captain since his brother, Itachi Uchiha, who had graduated, been a captain since he was a second year at the school and played for all-states. Sasuke had to admit, he hated the pressure, and although he never expected someone as lazy as Shikamaru to become captains with him, the team did need a strategist.
"We all need to calm down," Sasuke explained. "We can't keep putting ourselves down like this, we need to make sure we focus on the opposing team's strategy and have Shikamaru make something good up... and everyone on defense has to make sure they do their 110% best today because letting Naruto be one on one with the ball is definitely not a good ide-"
Naruto jumped out of his seat, "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU-"
"Guys!" Ten Ten stood up, one hand punching Naruto's head back down into his chair. "Temari's here! Move over Naruto!"
"Move for wha- AHH!" Naruto got pushed out of his seat mid-sentence by Sakura. The girls were quite stressed out with this whole 'guy' talk, and put their anger out on Naruto.
Temari approached the table, smiling sweetly at the girls. She looked around the table, making sure to glance extra quickly at Shikamaru. "Hey," She made eye contact with Ten Ten, considering it was really the only girl she knew at the table. "Where should I sit?"
"Here, take Naruto's seat." Sakura told her, opening the chair for her before she sat down.
"WHAT?" Naruto called out, realizing then there was no point fighting with the girls. He would then come towards Sasuke, about to sit down on his lap for fun however Sasuke scoot his chair over right in time to dodge Naruto's rear coming for his lap. Naruto would then remain on the floor again.
"I guess that's one way to save me a seat." Temari giggled, smiling at Sakura as the pink-haired girl did so back.
After minutes of munching and the boys talking about their game, a girl with long black hair would suddenly then rush behind Shikamaru and hug him around the shoulders. "Hi Shika-poo!"
All the guys stared at the girl, and tried their best to hold in their laughter. On the other hand, the girls rolled their eyes and grimaced at the annoying chick who was practically squeezing the life out of Shikamaru. Some of them even decided to drop their forks and stop eating, their appetite was about to go away.
Temari stared, 'Of course.. of course he has a girlfriend.'
"Shika baby, I'm going to your soccer game today, you better win for me!" She said in a high-pitched voice, squeezing him and attempted to attack him with kisses.
Shikamaru was never the type to hush girls away. He wasn't like Neji or Sasuke where the moment a girl came drooling around them, they were brutal enough to call them annoying or act like they didn't even exist. Although, it would be a nice trait to have. Instead, Shikamaru would always politely ask them to do something else, and that they'll 'talk later,' when in reality, Shikamaru always had those type of girls left on a pending message.
"Right, um, Kin-" He was cut off as she kept squeezing, however he gripped her wrists gently and motioned for her to unwrap her arms around him. "Listen, Kin, I would really appreciate it if we just had a normal conversation."
Kin walked towards him, whispering in his ear. "Come on, I know you liked the pictures I sent you."
"Uhm, no, no, not really, I kind of deleted them out of my phone." He told her nervously, in which she tried to show a bit of skin by unzipping the portion of her quarter-zip all the way down to show she wore no undergarments underneath.
"Come on Shika, let's have a little fun tonig-"
Temari read the situation clearly, he was going through the same harassment she went through at her old school. Although it was most likely less difficult for a guy, she could tell Shikamaru was a softie. She glared, before dropping her fork a distance away from the table to purposely make a noise. Everyone at the table stared at her, including Kin and Shikamaru.
"Huh, how embarrassing for a girl to have to rub her whole chest at a guy just for him to notice her." Temari said out loud, now making full eye contact with Kin.
Kin glared, "Who are you?"
"Who me?" Temari threw a sarcastic smile, "You don't need to know me, but I don't even need to know what your name is to know what kind of girl you are."
"Who do YOU think you're talking to like that?" Kin said, putting a hand on her hip sassily. "Who am I kidding, aren't you the new foreign exchange student? You probably live in some sandbox that gets tossed around all the time, I don't need some crumb of a female to tell me how to act."
And that's when she pushed it. Temari looked down at the table, her hands making a fist on her lap. The girls looked at Temari worryingly, wondering if Kin had really hurt her feelings. The boys on the other hand either puts their foreheads to their palms or were fully engaged on how the situation was going to break out. Shikamaru was just trying to hush Kin, who was also continuing to be touchy with him.
In one swift motion, Temari jumped from out of her seat, pouncing at Kin from across the table which she successfully grabbed her by the hair and threw punches as her whole body was balancing on her knees. Kin was screaming bloody murder. Shikamaru was trying to break up the fight while trying not to touch any inappropriate parts considering he was in the 'no-zone.' Ino and Sakura were screaming. Hinata stood back in fear. Ten Ten was trying to pull Temari off of Kin along with Neji and Sasuke. While Kiba and Naruto were both trying to pull Kin from Temari's grip at the same time trying to pull Shikamaru out of the 'eye of the hurricane.'
"HEY! WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?" A pair of high heels clinked the tiled of the dining hall, a woman with clear skin, long blonde hair, and rather large breasts came in. Along her was another woman with a dark black dress and high heels as well, with short black hair.
The commotion paused as they realized what kind of trouble they were really going to get into.
"Bah! W-What a drag!"
Now wasn't that chapter interesting!
Kind of the same ending, just a bit more exaggeration. See you in the next chapter!
