Shikamaru and Temari knew there would be more work in order to get married than there normally would since they were from different villages. What they didn't know was that the villages elders were going to turn the entire thing in a political feud. Both sides wanted their traditions and customs to be followed as well as the ceremony to be held in their birth villages. Temari would much rather have their wedding in amount the beautiful trees and flora of Konoha than in the dry, dusty sand of Suna. The had practically yelled at the elders when the had tried to argue, this was her wedding she was going to plan in, not some old hags who only wanted what would make some other old hags mad!
Shikamaru wasn't too bothered with what the wedding was like. To him it was all too much of a drag, all he wanted was to have a simple wedding. So when everything became a big deal, with alliances and politics, he really didn't want to get involved. But it is his wedding and Temari did not seem to happy about the elders so he had to put a stop to all the nonsense. Shikamaru arranged a conference between the leaf's elders, suna's elders and Temari and him. Everything was going smoothly, they were able to make compromises to fit everyone, until it came to the location. Shikamaru knew Temari wanted to get married in Konoha but the sand elders were adamant that they got married in Suna just like how the leaf's elders were pushing for them to get married in Konoha. Things spiralled out of control quickly, Temari was ready to attack anyone who dared to oppose her and at that moment it was the sand elders. Shikamaru would normally try to calm her down, but he was almost as feed up as her. Thankfully, in the end, everything was resolved and the two villages came to an agreement.
. . .
The couple sat on Shikamaru's bed as they talked about the preparations for the wedding, they agreed on almost everything and the planning was going well until Temari mentioned one thing that caught Shikamaru's attention. He turned to her, he could not believe what she had just said, "could you please repeat that."
Temari sighed "My brothers don't know we're getting married..."
"How in the world did you manage that? I mean the Sand's elders came to the leaf, surely they would have questioned why."
Temari shrugged "the thing is they've been in Kirigakure (Kiri: the village hidden in the mist) for just over a week and things happened fast."
"What a drag, I should have asked their permission first..."
"Probably"
Shikamaru's eyes widened, "you think? Oh kami, they're going to kill me..."
"Probably"
"This is so troublesome. Gaara's fine, he likes me, but Kankuro already hates me. Ugh, he's going to punch me again isn't he...?"
"Probably"
Shikamaru turned to Temari and glared at her playfully, she gave him an innocent look. He quickly cupped her face with his hand and kissed her. She deepened the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him closer to her. Their bodies were almost touching, she felt his hand that wasn't hold her face move down to the bottom of her back. Shikamaru growled into the kiss, his tongue already fighting hers for dominance.
Shikamaru pushed Temari down on the bed, so he was now hovering above her, breaking the kiss. They gasped for air as they stared in each other's eyes, they were full of love, longing and lust. Shikamaru lowered him self slightly to capture her lips in a kiss once more, this time she let him dominate. His tongue explored every crevasse and every part of her mouth as if it was his first time.
Temari grabbed the bottom of the black shirt he was wearing and pulled it over his head, their lips parting, before quickly connecting again. She ran her hand over his defined stomach, her fingers tracing his abs, he shivered slightly under her touch. Shikamaru slid his hand into Black Kimono, running his hand down the side of stomach. It felt like sparks of electricity were shooting down her spin as he touched her. He slowly retracted his hand and started to undo the koshihomo, the kimono opened slightly from the lack of binding. Shikamaru could see a bit of cleavage teasing him, he leaned down and trailed soft kisses going down from her jaw to the bottom of her collarbone.
In an instant her kimono was gone, she shivered as the cool air mad contact with her now bare skin. Shikamaru must have noticed, because he quickly pulled them under the blanket of his bed. Warmth spread through her body, not just from being under the covers, but from his hand exploring her body. Tingles of pleasure filled her being, as he kissed her once again. This time it was a slow meaningful kiss, reminding them of their first kiss. She was already in her under garments and wasn't going to let him have more clothes on than her, so she started struggling to pull his pants off. He smirked into their kiss and help her, with in two kicks his anbu trousers were laying on the floor next to her forgotten kimono. He broke the kiss and dropped his face next to hers, she could feel his hot breath as he nibbled in her ear. Her back arched and she moaned slightly,
"I love you" his voice was husky and full of lust as he whispered in her ear.
"I love you too."
