~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Shika woke up and looked at the clock on his bedside table. It read 4:14pm. So he carefully got out of bed, not wanting to wake his wife up. He made his way to the kitchen. "Hmm what should I make for dinner?" He asked himself. "I guess I will just order sushi." He mumbled quietly to himself. (A/N~ not sure if they have phones, but they do in my fic.) He picked up the phone and called the sushi bar and ordered and he then went to the living room with the money.
Shika heard a knock on the door and he answered it and paid for the sushi. He then took it to the kitchen and sat the table. He looked at the clock and saw it was 5pm. "Well I better go wake Ino so she can eat to regain her strength…I have been talking to myself a lot…" Shika thought out loud. Shika walked to their bedroom and slowly approached the bed. He put his hand on Ino's back and started to rub it. "Love, time to wake up so we can eat." Shika said.
"Okay." Ino said as she slowly woke up.
Ino and Shikamaru went to the kitchen and sat down at the table and ate once they finished they walked to the living room. "Shika…" Ino said once they were sitting down.
"What is it love?" Shika asked.
"Umm…I need a shower." Ino said.
"I do to…let's go." Shika said.
"Okay, but I don't feel like doing anything tonight, I am still tired." Ino replied.
"We don't have to if you don't want to; we have the rest of our lives." Shika said.
Ino kissed Shika tenderly as thanks for understanding. They got up and went to their room and Shika got two pairs of boxers and two of his shirts and he and Ino took a quick shower and got dressed. Once they finished Ino went to the living room and sat on the couch and Shika went to clean up the kitchen. Once he finished he walked to the living room and sat down on the couch with Ino.
"Shika, I love you." Ino said.
Shika did not reply, he just placed his lips gently to hers and kissed her passionately. Once they broke apart there was a knock at the door. "What a drag." Shika and Ino said in unison and then they both laughed. Shika got up and answered the door.
"Kurenai, what's wrong?" Shika asked concerned when he saw her.
"Umm, I heard about Ino and wanted to check on her." She replied.
"Okay…she is fine, come on I will take you to her." Shika said.
Kurenai followed Shika to the living room. "Ino Kurenai is here to see you." Shika said.
"Hello." Ino said.
"Hi Ino, I heard about the surgery and I wanted to make sure you were okay." Kurenai said.
"I am fine, just a little tired." Ino replied. Shika sat down and intertwined his fingers with hers.
"Shika…I want to go to bed." Ino said.
"Okay love, Kurenai not to be rude but can you comes back some other time?" Shika asked, knowing that she was not here to see Ino but is only here because she misses Asuma and it is their anniversary.
"Yea…sure." Kurenai said then left.
'Thanks Shika." Ino said once Kurenai left.
"No problem love do you want to watch a movie?" Shika asked. Ino nodded so Shika put on their favorite movie and he and Ino cuddled through the whole thing. By the time the movie was over it was 8pm.
"Shika, can you help me get to the bathroom." Ino asked.
"Yes, sure thing love." Shika replied and helped Ino to the bathroom and waited outside the door. When Ino finished Shika went in and took care of his needs and then he helped Ino to the bedroom.
"Shika, I was thinking, I know we are only 23, but I want to have a child." Ino said out of the blue when they were in the bed.
"I know how you feel love; we can try for a baby as soon as you get back up to 100%." Shika replied.
"Oh Shika, that would be wonderful, I love you so much." Ino said.
"I love you too." Shika said and he then leaned towards Ino and kissed her lovingly. Once they broke apart Ino fell into a restful sleep. Shika watched her sleep for a little over an hour and he to fell asleep.
A/N~ K this one is a bit shorter but I have something planed for the next chapter!
