Don't Leave Me

Chapter 2-Dreamer

'What the hell am I doing here?' Shikamaru asked himself silently, 'Why did it have to be me? Why do I have to leave my wife widowed, and my children fatherless for the rest of their lives? I hate feeling guilty all the time-'

"Shikamaru, break's over!" Itachi ordered him out of bed.

Great.

He was worse than Tsunade and his mom put together!

Training wasn't all peaches and ice cream. Itachi was especially harsh, but he taught Shikamaru well and soon, he was as good as he could ever hope to be. He found that he was accepted by the Akatsuki quite quickly, and soon, missing his family wasn't the only thing on his mind…

He knew that he was learning very useful fighting tips from them and living there wasn't as bad as some would assume. Of course, the missions they sent him on were terrible but it was all part of being an 'Akatsuki Member'.

He began to worry that maybe getting away wasn't going to be as easy as he had hoped; they watched him closely all the time; so far, he had only sent out two letters to the Hokage!

And the worst part was that nine months had passed since he left Konoha and it was likely that his baby had been born already. He was so worried about all of them.

'Temari…'

"Good evening…beautiful."

'Beautiful?' No one had called her that in a long time.

She span around to see a black silhouetted figure in the doorway. "Who are you?"

"You don't recognise me?" the figure stepped forward into the light.

Soon, Temari realised that standing there, in her room, was none other than, Shikamaru. Her Shikamaru.

He stood there grinning at her, as clear as day and at first Temari was almost frightened.

All the fear melted away when she felt that familiar embrace and that hot breath on her neck. He was breathing slowly; savouring her scent.

They stayed like this for a while. Shikamaru traced her curves with his fingertips. And in a sudden burst of courage, he pulled her to him, his eyes burning with lust and desire that she had never seen in him before. His hands gripped her arms hard; to the point of it being painful.

He lent forward and kissed her for the first time in months. His hands slipped to her waist and he began to nibble on her earlobe. She cried out; it had been so long since anyone had treated her like this. Only Shikamaru had the right to feel her. It felt like heaven when he touched her bare flesh again.

He pushed her onto the bed and straddled her. She groaned. How long had it been since she made love?

He pulled off his chuunin jacket and helped her remove her kimono. Clothing was flung in all different directions and soon enough they both lay naked on the bed.

Shikamaru massaged her nipples, pinching them slightly, summoning all sorts of noises to rumble in her throat. He replaced one of his hands with his mouth, sucking on her rhythmically.

Soon, he returned to her face to kiss her. And then, keeping his lips glued to hers, he massaged her inner thigh gently. "Shikamaru!"

He wasted no time and slowly inserted himself into her. She moaned loudly, arching her head back and tightening her legs around him.

This was his cue to continue. His pace quickened after a few minutes and soon they were both approaching their climaxes. "Shikamaru." Temari whispered, "I love you."

He replied by pushing himself deeper inside of her, causing her to moan louder.

Eventually, Shikamaru released into his wife. She groaned as he removed himself from her and then lent forward to capture her lips in a fiery kiss.

As always, his lips were so soft. Although, something was different. His skin wasn't the same…it was soft as well. Too soft. Shikamaru never had soft skin. It was always rough from working as a ninja.

He rolled over and lay down next to her. He was smiling. But Temari wasn't; something wasn't right here.

She blinked hard. Shikamaru was back?

Temari woke up, surrounded in all sorts of fluids. Her heart was thumping and her hair lay plastered against her forehead, neck and back as she gasped for air.

A stray tear escaped her eye as it dawned on her.

She was alone.

I might add another chapter to this...I'm not sure. Well, thanks for reading now REVIEW...please?

Sorry if this is a bit rushed, I've had so much homework and posting this has been really time consuming. Will update soon. Saturday...maybe.
