Chapter 6

Problems Of The Arousing Kind

Shikamaru yawned and stretched his arms. Rubbing his eyes, he let his mind wander back to the previous night. I had the weirdest dream…okay, it really wasn't weird but there's no way it was real. I swear I could feel Sakura's hot breath hovering over my lips. I could feel her hair brush ever so lightly against my face. I could feel my hands on her waist and then lower to her…!?

A sudden thought broke through Shikamaru's entrancement. He glanced about his bedroom and to his shock, he found clothes that were definitely not his strewn all over his floor. Holy shit! It wasn't a dream! Sakura and I really did it!

A cabinet door slammed and Shikamaru angled his head toward the source of the sound. It had come from his bathroom. He shot a quick glance towards the other half of his bed. The sheets were rumpled and the covers were thrown back, indicating that Sakura was up and about. She's the one in the bathroom, Shikamaru decided.

As if to confirm this thought, the bathroom door swung open and a bubblegum haired kunoichi stepped out. Smiling at Shikamaru, she ran a brush through her hair. Shikamaru noticed that the only thing concealing her curves was a towel. She must have just taken a shower, he thought.

As she continued to comb the tangles out of her hair, Sakura walked around the room, gathering up her clothes. Once she was satisfied that she had picked all of her clothes up, she returned to the bathroom and clicked the lock shut behind her. Shikamaru smiled, She obviously doesn't trust me to not try and sneak a peek at her whilst she is naked. He chuckled at the thought of him walking in on Sakura changing.

"What's so funny?"

Shikamaru stopped laughing and stared into Sakura's amused eyes. She was still only wearing the towel.

"Umm…nothing. Why did you come back out?"

A troubled expression creased Sakura's brow. "I can't seem to find my bra," she admitted.

Shikamaru sniggered and turned away from her.

"This is no time to be laughing Shika! It isn't funny!" She looked about ready to burst into tears.

Shikamaru's sniggers turned into unrepressed laughter. "Well may-maybe we sh-should get to looking f-for it!" he wheezed.

He threw back the covers, slid off of his bed and crawled around on the floor. He finally found the darn bra- it was hanging on a lamp across the room. How the hell did it get over here? he wondered.

Clutching the bra in his left hand, he walked over to Sakura. "Here," he said.

Sakura didn't move. Her eyes were fixated on a spot just below Shikamaru's waistline. He glanced down as a sudden realization hit. He wasn't wearing anything!

A yelp of surprise escaped from his lips and he dashed into the bathroom. The slamming of the door jolted Sakura free from her trance and she berated herself for staring.

"Shikamaru! I need in there!" she complained.

"Too bad," she heard him grumble.

"Please!"

"No."

"I'm coming in!" she warned.

"No."

Ignoring him, Sakura turned the knob, pushed the door open slightly, and peeked in. She was startled when Shikamaru yanked the door open, pulled her inside, and closed the door behind her. The lock clicked and a devilish grin spread across his face.

"I thought I could lure you in here," he whispered seductively, "I'm just too hot to resist, aren't I? You're at my mercy."

We'll see about that, Sakura thought. Taking Shikamaru by complete surprise, Sakura pulled his mouth down to hers. Coming quickly out of shock, Shikamaru responded to the kiss. His eyes clouded over with lust and he saw only her. He backed Sakura against a wall and ran his fingers along the borderline of the towel. He wanted the infuriating thing off!

But Sakura had other plans. She whirled him around and pinned his arms against the wall. She pushed her body up against his and felt his growing arousal. Releasing one of his hands, she slowly slid one of her own down his taught, chiseled torso. She pinched one of his nipples and he moaned into her mouth. The sensation sent a ripple of pleasure coursing through her body. Her hand slid lower, causing Shikamaru's breath to catch in his throat and the kiss to end.

Smirking at the look of complete desire on her lover's features, Sakura removed her hand and began to grind herself against his body. She again crushed his lips with her own and forced her tongue into his mouth. Shikamaru didn't object, in fact he seemed relatively at ease to submit and allow Sakura dominate him. Pulling him away from the wall, Sakura pushed him down onto the cold tiles of the bathroom floor. Straddling him, she removed her mouth from his lips and began sucking at his neck. She slowly kissed her way down to his left nipple. She figured they must be one of Shikamaru's weak spots because he seemed to take extreme pleasure from them being played with. Teasing it at first with her tongue, Sakura then used her teeth to elicit a very sexual moan from Shikamaru's lips. Satisfied with his reaction, Sakura trailed kisses down to his arousal. She kissed the tip of it and then took him in her mouth. The feeling of having part of the one she loved inside her mouth was indescribable.

"Oh fuck!" Shikamaru gasped.

Having accomplished her mission, Sakura took him out of her mouth and sat up. She searched Shikamaru's eyes and found a pleading look. Flashing him a teasing smile, Sakura stood up and left the bathroom.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" She heard Shikamaru swear.

Sakura giggled and walked over to Shikamaru's bed. She sat down and waited patiently for several minutes, knowing all too well what he was doing. When he finally came out, the look of lust and desire had faded but had been replaced with a new one. He was furious.

"I ought to kick your ass for doing that to me!" he said, "I had to finish what you started!"

"Aww…what a shame," Sakura pouted, an amused glint in her eyes, "and I wanted to be the one to make you cum. But I guess you had to settle with your hand, didn't you?"

"Shut up!" Shikamaru growled, but his features softened. The look of fury vanished from his eyes and he smiled."

"I was only having a little fun Shika!" Sakura stated.

"Well your 'little' fun caused me a 'large' problem."

"Oh shut up!" Sakura laughed and then she smiled inwardly to herself, visualizing the mental picture his words had created. Yes, she thought, I did leave you with a 'large' problem…
