I'll try posting one every week after the episode comes out.

Disclaimer: Temari and Shikamaru are not together, yet, so I clearly don't own Naruto


When Tsunade had said Shikamaru's apartment was big enough for the both of us she wasn't kidding I was expecting to sleep on the sofa and that everything would be mess. Shikamaru's apartment was pretty big it had two rooms, one bathroom with a huge tub and shower and a living room connected with a dining room next to a nice kitchen everything was nicely decorated and surprisingly clean.

She wondered what her brothers would think of her living alone with a boy she decided that she wouldn't tell them unless the hokage ever said something.

"Don't get too comfortable" Shikamaru said to Temari, "you can have that room" he said pointing to the door on his left.

"Sure, thank you" she didn't say anything more and drop her things in her room and then went about looking around the apartment.

Shikamaru was surprised the troublesome woman didn't say any insults. Maybe she changed, she's still annoying but not as much but then again it could be because she busy. Both of them had changed he was taller than her now she has changed physically she has a great body and nice long legs and her curvy- WAIT WHAT! No stop what the hell am I thinking? Shikamaru thought, how could he even think of her like that she annoyed the living hell out of him.

"Hey crybaby I'm going to the market to get some food your fridge is empty and I don't want to starve" she said breaking his crazy thoughts of her making him return to reality.

He let out a sigh, "Guess I have to go too"

"No you don't I can take care of myself I don't need a babysitter," she snapped at him.

"Trust me I know, I don't want to guard, its to much of a drag but your brothers and Tsunade would kill me if anything happen to you, so let's go" he said walking out the door.

They walk to a market close by; she quickly found what she needed. On her way out the out of the store a kunai hit the wall next to her.

"Shadow possession jutsu" Shikamaru says, as Temari grabs her fan.

"Whoa dude calm down it was an accident," the guy says. Shikamaru releases his jutsu "Watch were you throw your kunai," Temari said putting her fan away.

"I'm sorry if I almost hit you but I would love to make up to over dinner sometime, my name is Masahiro. what yours beautiful," he said smiling at her. Temari found him cute he was tall and had light brown hair, light brown eyes and a killer smile.

Are you kidding me this guys hitting on Temari what a tool, he jealously thought looking at Temari.

She let out a little flirtatious laugh, making Shikamaru even more jealous, "I'm fine, I'm Temari and I would lov-"

"She's busy, sorry. Temari we should get going," Shikamaru said narrowing his eyes pulling her towards the direction of the apartment, wondering why the hell he just did that.

"What the hell was that about, crybaby" she snapped as she pulled away from his grip.

"I don't like the look of that guy and he almost hit you with a kunai, It's a drag but I'm supposed to be keeping you safe," he said. Why did I do that? What do I care if she goes out to dinner with that tool. Why am I even thinking about this, he thought knowing that he did care.

"I see you're jealous admit it" she smirked her teal eyes looking into his dark ones.

He couldn't look away like if her eyes had taking a hold on him. "You're crazy" he said breaking the hold she had on him.

"Whatever you say Nara" she said sarcastically, "jealous" she coughed.

He pretended not hear her as they got to the apartment. When they got inside he went to his room a decided to take a nap trying to forget of what happened a few minutes ago.

When he woke up it was night time he had been dreaming of cloud watching with Temari, trying to forget about the Temari part.

He smelled something coming from the kitchen, he stared at Temari sitting reading a book eating food she had made. She got up put her plate in the sink turned to go to her room.

"Oh hey there lazy ass, you fell asleep and I made some food there is a plate for you in the microwave, I'm going to bed now," she said walking to her room smiling, he was jealous does he like me do I like him she questioned herself as she got ready for bed.

The food was good Shikamaru thought, at first he thought she had done something to his food, when he finished he put his plate in the sink and went to bed again trying to forget about Temari and what happen today, it wasn't working what a drag.

Temari woke up the next morning and went to the bathroom on her way there she saw a every sleepy Shikamaru; he was shirtless in his boxers, she blushed but quickly got passed it.

"Whoa there put some pants on" she said he has really nice pecks and no six pack but it looks hot, it's tone and all he's hot, he looks cute just waking up what am I saying I just thought he looked hot, she thought she had also thought he was cute could she even think she think of him as cute let alone hot? She pushed those thought to back of her mind.

Shikamaru forgot that she was living with him now, when he saw her he couldn't help but stare she was wearing a tight tank top and a pair of small short. His cheeks growing pink , he tried to get is words out without stuttering.

"Forgot you were here… you should really cover up too you know troublesome woman," he said still fixated on her. She looks hot he thought.

"Maybe you should stop staring and I will, lazy ass" she said with a smirk, Shikamaru's cheeks when from pink to red as he went into the bathroom.

"Hey! I need to use the bathroom, lazy ass," she yelled banging the door.

"To bad, cry about it," he said from the other side of the door.

She got her fan and with one movement she blew open the door breaking it.

"What the fuck are you doing are you crazy,"

"I told you I had to use the bathroom, I have to get ready" she said with a smirk.

"So you broke my fucking door instead of waiting, you crazy troublesome woman," he said she would get back at her for this. She just smiled at him. "Great know we have no door for our shared bathroom all thanks to you, you troublesome woman" he said. She knew he would try to get back at her later, she smiled this was the reason she loved annoying him, he fought back he wasn't afraid to speak his mind to her.
