I could hear the soft tones of mumbling voices drift from under the cracks of my door as I willed myself to not let it distract me from my purpose: stay asleep. I had been drifting in and out of consciousness trying to hold on to the last threads of the dream that was running through my head but even as I tried to grip it, it leaked like sand falling between my fingers as the world around me came into focus and I was staring at the horizontal wall of the purest white that hung above my bed.
As a re-awoke into a world that held little of my interest, I tried to again close my eyes to find the dream that had already been forgotten but it's fading memory still held some promise that intrigued and frustrated me to no end. Without any luck, I reopened my eyes to my living hell as heard stomping, yet oddly dainty, footsteps as they came up the stairs and reached my door.
My door burst open with no warning, revealing my mother who was in an angry rage which meant that my father had already irritated her. Now we both would suffer the unbearable consequences. I sighed and sat up as my mother started to open her mouth to yell.
"Shikamaru! I have told you three times this morning! Get up and help your father do the chores! You are not going to spend your life lying around! The deer need to be fed and I want you two to clean the kitchen. And I want it spotless!"
"Troublesome." Was all I said as I stood to get dressed and finish the work quickly as to not suffer more from her wrath, but before I even stood to my full height she was yelling again.
"And while you're at it, go get the groceries and for God sake go find yourself a girlfriend!"
"Tsh. Whatever woman, just leave me be,"
After doing all that my devil of mother could think to make me do, I finally was able to get away and ended up at one of my favorite places in my whole village; a secluded hill just on the edge of the eastern most boundary.
I laid down on the ground towards the top of the hill where the ground just barely began to slope and almost immediately fell into a slumber. My nap was soon disturbed by the same dream as before but again when I awoke and slowly blinked my eyes to the low afternoon sun the dream vanished. When I awoke I had noticed a change to the scent in the air. A new smell of lilacs was swirling around me. As I slightly leaned my head towards the scent, I saw another woman of demonic stature equal to if not more of that of my mother; Sabaku no Temari.
"Welcome back to the world Lazy-ass."
"What a horrible way to wake up." As my comment came out it was soon followed by Temari's large metal fan hitting me on the head.
"Ow! Damn troublesome woman." To that she didn't answer she seemed to be a little distracted at the moment staring off into the clouds.
"So… umm… What exactly were you dreaming about Nara?" She asked without looking at me and was come over with a hint of a blush.
The question startled me a bit, wondering if I had done something embarrassing while I slept like drool. I studied her quietly taking in all the details of her face. Judging from her reaction, it was probably something to do with her rather than embarrassing. The faint blush that crossed the delicate bridge of her nose began to make its way to her chest, her breathing just a bit heavy than normal. I felt my face warm and my desire to know exactly what I had been dreaming flared.
"Uh… well… I have no idea." I whispered honestly covering my mouth with my hand and looking back at the clouds that moved to cover the sun.
She snorted and a smirk lightly touched her lips before she finally looked look down and catch me in her wonderfully teal eyes.
"You don't remember do you?" she laughed, "Why does that sound so much like you? Would you like to know what I heard you say or rather mumbled through your oh so deep slumber?" I could see the immediate change in her now that she felt more in control of the situation. She leaned toward me on one had before quieting her voice. "Or rather would you like to know exactly what you did?"
My blush deepen but I furrowed my brow and removed my hand from my face, closing my eyes and re-situating myself in the grass. I let silence settle a few moments before I couldn't help myself.
"What I ...did?"
She was in fit of hysterical laughter at this. "Yes. What you did. I found it quite interesting." Even as she said this the blush on her face increased as well and my heart dropped.
I quickly grabbed her arms turning her to face me startled to find myself sitting up but pushed the thought away.
"Just tell me."
She hesitated at my urgency but then soon I watched her eyes droop ever so slightly and begin to glow with something that I never have seen before but was a mixture between her desire to win, like when she plays against me in shogi, and an emotion I had not ever encountered directed at me.
"It wound be easier..." Temari told me in a huskier and lower voice then she had ever used before and I was soon hyper aware of how close our faces and our bodies were as my mind went blank and my ears began to buzz. "to just show you."
She laid back onto the ground and pulled me on top of her too fast for me to resist.
In an instant the space between us was gone and I had no idea what was going on as she gasped gently into my lips and sent shivers down my spine. Instinctively, I kissed her back, my hands digging their way into her hair. The moment felt like déjà vu though I felt sure I'd never done it before.
As our lips broke apart and I took in a deep breath the brain glitch she caused making me forget that I needed oxygen to live.
She spoke again in her same deep husky voice. "That's defiantly better when you're actually awake."
As my breathing calmed down I realized I didn't know what to say but wanted nothing more than to feel this troublesome woman's lips moving against mine again.
"Again," I whispered then said it again with a little more power, "Again." And without even waiting for an answer I pressed my lips against hers with a new passion and desire I had never felt.
She kissed me back with giggle in the back of her throat. As we broke apart again, she asked me, "Are you sure it's not too troublesome, Lazy-ass?"
And I again I had the same answer, "I have no idea" my brain not functioning as a pressed back toward her.
We met in another kiss slower than the rest but still just as passionate. I rolled and pulled her on top of me and began to letting my new found instinct take over as I traced her bottom lip with my tongue and soon she was opening her mouth to me. My tongue pressed into her battling her own for dominance as we pressed our faces together as close as we possibly could. Our teeth clicked together briefly but we both learned quickly the best angles to get around that. A moan on her lips pulse through me and and broke to look at her flushed face. Her heavy breathing making her chest heave against mine.
"You know, Shikamaru." She reached down and pushed a stray hair from my eyes as she whispered inches from my lips. "This is only the beginning."
"...Is that a threat woman?"
"A challenge" She said smugly. "One you probably wont win."
"I bet I could prove you wrong."
"Ha. Nara Shikamaru, the biggest Lazy-ass in Konoha, is going to take on a challenge?"
"...Maybe." I said looking past her breifly to the sky before settling back on her teal eyes and loosing myself in them.
She laughed. "Well then first thing is first, when do I get to meet your parents Shika." She wiggled her brows down at me.
"You don't want to do that." I told her as I tried to save the world from the explosion of two demonic women getting together under one roof.
"So you're not up for the challenge?" She looked devious.
"I didn't say that."
"That's not what it-"
"Tomorrow, Seven." I said and swallowed deeply.
"Ok. Shikamaru I'll be there at seven."
