EXTRA

A/N

Here's a little extra chapter, written by my friend Bec. She saw some of my stories and wrote her own :)
Hope you guys like it.

Temari rolled over in bed and opened her eyes sheepishly. She saw her best friend Shikamaru pulling his socks on, sitting on the other side of the bed.

Temari had liked Shikamaru for a long time but had never admitted it to him or anyone. She was afraid of what would happen to their friendship if she confessed.

"Good morning," She managed. Shikamaru jumped a little, startled that she had been awake. Had she watched him get dressed? They'd been room mates for half a year and had been so similar that they instantly became best friends, and although there was only one bed in the apartment, they slept together, more like a childish sleepover than a married couple's sleepover. They hadn't done anything, but they had spent nights watching TV, stargazing through the window or making ramen together. To Temari, this was like heaven, but to not even be able to tell Shikamaru that she wanted to grow old with him was almost like hell. The reason she couldn't tell him was because Shikamaru was disapproved by her friends. Ino, her gorgeous, blonde, smart friend had hated the thought of her liking him, and it was only after Ino had befriended Temari that she found out that Ino had been going out with Shikamaru in junior high and had cheated on Ino for her best friend. Temari felt bad for her and didn't want to be cheated on if she did get the chance to go out with the really felt comfortable around, Shikamaru.

Temari never once thought to speak to Shikamaru about it as he didn't know of her being ex friends with Ino. Temari knew something about Shikamaru that she wasn't meant to, but Shikamaru was freaking hot, amazing, sweet, and the type all Korean fell for or wrote his name over and over again with love hearts in their diaries. That morning had been the final moments they shared together.

Temari was crossing the road, a red mitsubishi stopped her. Stopped her heart that is. The car was driven by Shikamaru, intoxicated with Ino in the back seat. When the police arrived at the scene, Temari's blood had been red, redder than the car that had hit her, redder than the love that Shikamaru had for Temari.

Shikamaru had been driving back to the apartment to bring Temari her old friend back and to show the ring Ino had picked out for Shikamaru to give to Temari. If only Temari had not tried to walk to the Korean Train Station to give her a sorry present. If only life was easy enough to tell someone you love them.
