Hello everyone! Today has been such a lazy day-please enjoy the latest chapter of 'Shikamaru's troublesome days'! :)
Shikamaru's TROUBLESOME days
Chapter 6- The flop of a festival! Part 2- Destruction of hope
Choji spluttered chips all over the sofa as he laughed at Shikamaru's explanation.
"You really do have bad luck, Shika-kun!" He playfully punched his best friend in the arm.
"Shut up! Today has been such a bad day…" Shikamaru groaned as he face palmed.
"…" Temari quietly listened into their conversation. She had found this day slightly annoying as well.
"Hahaha…Well, you guys can go and change in the two spare rooms over to the left! Shikamaru, your mum definitely hasn't changed! Hahaha!" Choji continued to roll on the floor, laughing uncontrollably.
"So troublesome…" The pineapple-head sighed as he left. An oddly quiet Temari walked after him.
*A while later…*
"I'm dressed!" Temari rushed out of the dressing room excitedly. She had smelt some chicken coming from the kitchen and wanted to eat it all!
Shikamaru gasped as Choji dropped his chicken onto the lap of his brand-new outfit for the festival.
"Huh? What's up with you guys?" Temari wore a beautiful, flowing plum blossom kimono with a white obi belt that had a golden obi sash on top of it. Her spiked ponytails were tied up with deep purple ribbons. Delicate golden blossom earrings hung from her ears.
"Whoa, you look…" Choji's jaw hung wide open.
"…" A slight blush spread over Shikamaru's features.
"Wow…you guys' reactions are too funny! Do I look that good?" She gave them both a mischievous smirk.
"Who cares…let's just go already! So troublesome…" He mumbled unhappily as he strolled out the door.
Choji winked at Temari on his way out of the door. She sweat dropped. Is my outfit that awesome?! She smiled happily.
Night had reached Konoha. Pink lanterns hung in the sky as many people in traditional attire strolled around. A vibrant blonde boy who was completely decked in orange was hopping about.
"Naruto…" Shikamaru waved hello to his fellow comrade.
"Hi Shikamaru, Choji and TEMARI!?" Naruto greeted them all with an infectious grin on his adorable face. "Temari, you look AMAZING! Lucky you, Shikamaru! You get to keep the hot girls all for yourself!" He chuckled warmly as he slapped Shikamaru on the arm.
"You're such a drag!" Shikamaru whined.
"Hehe! How nice it is to see you all today!" Kiba surprised them by leaping onto Naruto's shoulder, knocking the poor blonde into not only Temari, but the others as well!
The 6 ninja (including Akamaru) clattered to the ground in a tangled heap, Temari at the bottom. But things were going to get even worse!
SNAP! Ino and Sakura giggled as they took a very unflattering picture of the group.
"Ha-ha, are you all alright!?" They helped the team up steadily.
"No, we're not! Delete that picture NOW!" Temari snapped at the two kunoichi.
"Nuh-uh!" Sakura and Ino bobbed their heads in unison.
"That's it! You girls are SO annoying!" Temari shot after the two girls, ready for a blow-up fight! She just HAD to get that camera off them!
Shikamaru watched everybody and frowned at the infuriating scene in front of him. All he wanted to do was relax, but for some reason, not even that was possible.
"Shikamaru." A voice called out to him softly.
"What is it, Ino?" He gave her a slight glance.
"Can we…uh… go for a walk?" Ino asked.
"Urgh…alright." He followed after her slowly.
They walked along the scenic route. Butterflies glided across the skies as the grass billowed in the wind. Blue light shadowed their faces slightly.
"What do you want to ask me?" Shikamaru finally stated.
"Do you like Temari?" Ino asked nosily.
A deep red blush spread across his face. "How troublesome. It's none of your business."
"I knew it! That's why I have something to tell you!" Ino piped up suddenly.
"Huh?" He was slightly taken aback.
"Kiss me!" Ino screamed crazily.
Just at the exact moment that she said that, Temari was walking by. And she had heard the WHOLE conversation…
Sorry, this chapter wasn't that great! I hope you liked it still! :)
