[[A/N]] I know I said that there were only going to be two chapters... I lied... There will be at least 3! you may either do a happy dance or shake a fist at me for lying, either way I would like you to review! =]

An hour later, the pair had stumbled back to Shikamaru's house and the Nara was looking through the kitchen for the stash of alcohol he knew his father kept there.

"Found it," he said before turning to the slightly older man who was leaning against the kitchen counter. "It's whiskey, do you mind?"

"As I recall, you were the one who disliked it," Neji said as he pulled two glasses from the cupboard behind Shikamaru, their bodies pressed unnaturally close.

Shikamaru's eyes widened slightly and he took a breath that hitched in his throat. "Yeah," he replied swallowing at the Hyuuga's proximity. "But now it probably won't taste so bad. The sake –"

He cut off his sentence at the look Neji was giving him.

"Are you nervous, Nara?" he asked.

Shikamaru rolled his eyes in an attempt at nonchalance. "Why would I be nervous, Hyuuga?"

Neji moved in closer, their bodies now separated by two very thin pieces of cloth.

"I don't know," Neji replied, his breath ghosting over Shikamaru's face. "Maybe because of this." Neji placed his hands gently on Shikamaru's hips and the younger man looked into the pale eyes of the man stood in front of him.

"Why would that make me nervous?" he whispered, running a hand down Neji's side before coming to rest on his hip.

Neji smiled as he held the Nara's gaze slowly leaning in and kissing him gently. Shikamaru's eyes closed instantly and he used his other hand to pull the Hyuuga in closer, deepening the kiss and before long, Shikamaru was pulling away gasping for breath.

Neji's lips, however, did not leave Shikamaru. Instead, they traced the line of his jaw before finding his earlobe. Shikamaru felt Neji's teeth close around his earring and give it a gentle tug, drawing a moan from the younger man. Shikamaru pulled Neji back to him and looked at him questioningly. Neji pulled him into another soft kiss before pulling back and removing his hands from their position on the Nara's hips.

"What the hell is going on?" Shikamaru mused quietly to himself.

Neji's thoughts raced through his mind. What was he doing and more importantly why? This was Shikamaru. The only person he had ever thought may just be able to give him a run for his money on the intelligence front so why were they engaging in such an unintelligent act.

"This isn't about intelligence," Shikamaru said, answering Neji's unvoiced questions. "This is emotional."

The flawless Hyuuga mask slipped for a second before Neji regained control. Emotions were worthless to him. Emotions caused him nothing but trouble.

"It won't go any further," Shikamaru told him, turning away. "If you want, you can leave now and we'll just pretend this never happened."

What was he saying? Why would Neji want to leave? Is that really what Shikamaru wanted? Neji studied the back of the Nara before realising the answer to his questions. No, Shikamaru didn't want him to leave, If Neji was reading him correctly, that was the opposite of what the Nara wanted. But he was giving Neji a chance; a chance to go back to his normal mundane life. Neji stepped forward slowly. He ran a hand across Shikamaru's waist and the other down one side of his throat. Shikamaru leaned into the gentle caress, exposing his neck to the Hyuuga who slowly pressed his lips to the supple skin. Shikamaru's body reacted instantly and he could feel himself quivering under Neji's touch.

It was so emotional, so romantically intimate, but Shikamaru couldn't help but feel the disconnectedness of Neji's touch. He was so unused to the feelings that even Shikamaru in an almost frenzied state of arousal could sense it.

Shikamaru turned slowly, Neji's lips never leaving his skin. The plan had formed in his mind so readily it was as if it had been there all along. He ran a hand through the long soft hair of the other man, drawing his attention to the barely legal adult's face and crushed a kiss against his lips. Shikamaru's hands roamed the back of the Hyuuga's shirt, feeling for every point that caused a reaction and when he found one near the base of the other man's spine, he couldn't help but smile into the kiss.

Neji placed his hands on either side of the counter Shikamaru was leaning against and he felt hands move his shirt. Shikamaru's hands ghosted over the planes of his stomach, gently feeling the muscles and tracing the small dips between them. Neji could feel heat spreading throughout his body and he tried to push down the arousal that was threatening to take over his mind. That was until the Nara lifted his shirt to remove it, at that moment, all normal sense of reason was thrown out of the window.

Shikamaru's lips moved down Neji's throat, stopping briefly at the pulse point he found there. Feeling Neji's increased heartbeat on his lips, he worked his way to the older man's shoulders, his tongue tracing the fading scars he found there. He felt Neji move closer, he felt something brush against his erection and glanced down to find Neji's own pressing against him. He smiled as he moved lower again, his hands coming to rest on the Hyuuga's hips, pulling him closer.

Neji gasped as he felt their erections collide once more and bit his lip to stifle a small moan as Shikamaru rocked their hips together while kissing and biting his nipples.

'Ihavetoregaincontrolofthesituation,'he thought, hastily.'Ihaveto...Fuck!'

Neji looked down to find the younger man on his knees, kissing his navel and tracing the pathway that was blocked by his remaining clothes. Shikamaru looked up at him without tilting his head, the sight was so frustratingly erotic, Neji undid his pants without thinking.

Shikamaru smiled at him as he lowered the older man's trousers and he was faced Neji's erection covered only by a thin pair of boxer shorts. Slowly, he began to tease the man in front of him again; kissing and biting the area around his pubic bone.

"Either stick it in your mouth," Neji growled. "Or get the hell up."

Shikamaru hid his shock well, The Hyuuga was still too coherent, he thought as he slowly licked the leaking head of Neji's erection. Neji gasped slightly as Shikamaru blew cool air at the burning appendage before enveloping it in the warmth of his mouth.

Neji wrapped a hand in Shikamaru's hair and guided his head to the speed he desired. Shikamaru's hand wrapped around the Hyuuga's back, pulling him closer, guiding him deeper and with expert precision, his fingers ran over the spot on the small of his spine that he had discovered earlier.

Neji let out a load gasp and threw his head back.

Shikamaru kissed his way up and down Neji's cock, twirling his tongue around the tip.

"Don't be shy," he crooned, softly. "No one's home."

Gently, the Nara felt himself being pulled back to a standing position. As he complied, he found himself face to face with a wide eyed Neji.

"Why'd you stop me?" Shikamaru asked quietly, not breaking the eye contact he had with the Hyuuga.

"Because this isn't right," Neji replied to a confused looking Shikamaru. "You have far too much covering you."
