The Connection part 2
"Oi." I could hear someone say I looked over and saw my two brothers knock Shikamaru to the ground. As I got up I could hear him struggling trying to get up but it was no use I went over and put my hands on my two younger brothers and told them to let go.
"But...Temari..." Kankuro said "He kissed you without your consent."
"I know," I said in a calm voice "But that doesn't mean I need you two to protect me from him." They were both sort of shocked well mainly Kankuro, Gaara just sort of looked normal but it took him a while to get up. I grabbed Shikamaru by the collar pulling him up almost off the ground but not quite. I think I was blushing a little but I tried to shake it off. "What are you doing? Do you know something I don't? Did I forget my memory? What happened to me?" I bombarded him with questions. It took him a while to answer but I think he was still shocked that he was caught off guard.
"I-I don't know what I was thinking sorry," he apologized. "Awwww man what a drag."
"What? What was that?" I asked sort of forcefully.
"Nothing. Nothing at all." He put his hands up in defense. "Okay let me explain to you what's going on. Okay so there was a disease going around and I was asked to tell the sand village. But it looks like I was too late. If you don't remember who I am or if you don't remember going to the leaf village then I'm pretty sure you have lost your memory." I let him go and sat down.
"Then why did I remember something when you…" I trailed off because I didn't want to say it but I did anyway "when you kissed me." I could feel my face burning. But I tried to hide the best I could but I think he was trying to do the same thing.
"I-I don't know." He said looking away. "But if you want your memory back Lady Tsunade is working on a cure for it, so you can come back to the leaf village with me."
"Oh no I don't think so." Kankuro butted in, "If you think I'm going to let my sister go with someone like alone then you thought wrong. I'm going with you." He looked sort of proud of himself I guess this is his way of sticking up for me but I couldn't really tell though.
"That's fine besides I will need your help to carry the antidote back here anyways." Shikamaru said. But he didn't look too thrilled on the idea of Kankuro going. I mean I had no objects and even though I would never have trusted a guy like him in a million years my brothers seemed to trust him. Even though one seemed not to like him he still seemed to think we could trust him. "Okay we will leave first thing in Moring. So get your stuff ready."Shikamaru said. "Hey umm this is a drag but do you think I could stay here?" He put his hand behind his head and scratched it nervously. "I sort of got kicked out of the place I was staying at." Hm I wonder why the guy seemed to look really smart.
"Yes its fine." Gaara said the only thing he said through this entire thing. So I headed upstairs not saying another thing to go and get some stuff to take with me.
When I got upstairs I was getting some of my stuff ready when I could hear some voices I decided not to eavesdrop because one of the voices sounded like Gaara's and if he caught me. I shuddered. I could hear a knock on my door so I said "Come in." Gaara walked in, huh he usually doesn't come into my room this is surprising. "Yes Gaara can I help you?" I laughed "Do you want me to make you your pancakes for the mornings that I'm gone?" I smiled at him.
"Temari."He said but looked a little pained. I wondered what was wrong "I-I know I'm your younger brother but I am also your Kazekage. And I want you to know that I know Kankuro is going to be there with you but we both know that he is an idiot and will get the wrong idea about things." He put his hand on my shoulder. I was surprised this was the longest conversation we have had in years, "I guess what I am trying to say is watch out and stay away from the girls in the leaf village some drama happened over the years with you but I'm not going to make you remember all that new start just make sure you keep a sharp eye okay." I looked at him in awe.
"I thought I was the one who was supposed to be the adult here." I smiled "You don't have to worry about me Gaara it will be okay I'm just going to go and apparently go get my memory back." I ruffled his hair and left the room to go take a shower. But he called out after me.
"That's just it. I don't know if I want you to get your memory back." I was a little surprised by this but I decided to just ignore so I shut the door and went to the bathroom. While I was in there I thought why wouldn't I want to get my memories back? Did something really bad happen? Oh well I might as well forget it. I mean a bad memory is better than no memory at all right? No? Yes? Maybe? Oh geez this is so confusing oh well I'm going to get it back no matter what because I feel like I really did forget something confusing.
When I got out I decided to just change into some sleep shorts and a hoodie. I went down stairs to go make dinner like I usually do. I looked around and finally found some meat and veggies. Dang our brother is the Kazekage and we always seem to never have any food when we need it. Oh well I sighed. It only took me about forty-five minutes so I called everyone to dinner. We all sat around the table to eat Gaara was eating peacefully, Kankuro looked disgusted at my cooking but he eat it reluctantly, And Shikamaru wasn't disgusted but looked to have a hard time eating it. "You know if you don't like it you don't have to eat it." I said it with a little bit of a pout. But he just looked at me and ate it reluctantly. After we were all done with our awkward dinner we all voted that Kankuro did the dishes wasn't much of a surprise though. We all went to bed early that night. I turned I turned on some music because I could sleep that night.
Well eventually I did fall asleep because I got woken up by a hurried voice it was Kankuro "Temari it's already ten o'clock and you still haven't fixed us breakfast." He said with a whine. I threw a pillow at him.
"Make your own damn breakfast you know I'm not a morning person." That's when I realized he was in my room. I started to throw my pillows at him "Get out of my room!" I screamed at him.
"But-But what about breakfast?" He whined. I grabbed my fan.
"Do you really want me to make you breakfast right now?" I told him.
"Nope. No ma'am I'll make it instead." He said with a little scream and ran out of the room. I slammed the door shut and tried to go back to sleep but it was no use. I couldn't do it. So I got my bag remembering everything that happened yesterday. And went down stairs. When I got downstairs I saw Gaara looking disappointed in Kankuro, I saw Kankuro Burning what seemed to be pancakes, and I saw Shikamaru sleeping on the couch. How is he sleeping through all this ruckus? I went over to my brothers they both looked relieved I was here to safe the pancakes. So I did then I went over and poked Shikamaru a couple of times in the side. He finally woke up. I smiled innocently but then screamed in his ear.
"PANCAKES ARE DONE!" And walked away with a huge grin. He walked over to the kitchen.
"What was that for?" he asked.
"For yesterday." I told him. "Well im going to go change and by the time I'm done we all better be done. Okay?" I told everyone. When I got back down they were all ready to go but it was all ready around one witch meant we were going to have to camp out that should be fun. I sighed oh well. So we headed off and told Gaara we should be back in a about a week maybe a little more.
We were walking for a couple of hours because there was no pint in running and so we decided to camp in the woods between the leaf and the sand. I decided to go look for some fruits because Kankuro decided not to bring any food. That's when I felt something wet fall on top of my head and realized it was going to rain. I already had some food that should last us the night so I headed back. On the way it started to pour. And I lost track of where I was going. Baka. I thought to myself so I decided to run. Even though I couldn't see where I was going. That's when I felt like I bummed into something and fell down.
"Hey watch were your going." I heard a familiar voice say as I looked closer it was Shikamaru. "Oh hey Temari, sorry for running into you me and Kankuro went out looking for you because it was raining."
"Oh it's cool." That's when I realized I was covered in mud. "Uhggg! Maybe you should watch were your going look I'm covered in mud." But instead of saying sorry he laughed. "What? You think this is funny?" I said a little angry I honestly didn't mind getting dirty so I didn't understand why I was acting like such a girl right now.
"S-Sorry" He said trying to hold his laugh back "But you look…" He got interrupted because I pulled him down to the muddy ground for pay back.
"Yeah now who looks funny?" I said snickering, in all honesty it was kind of fun we were both trying to pull each other down to the mud in the rain. Finally after a while of playing in the mud and laughing we got tired and just laid there. In the mud and rain. There was a long silence but finally I broke the silence. "So I really lost all my memory?"
"Like I said if you don't remember who I am and not going to the leaf then I'm going to have to say yes." He said. "But maybe it's not such a bad thing." He mumbled.
"What why not? I need to know my own memor…." This time I was cut off. I saw Shikamaru's face above mine I could feel his breath on my face. I closed my eyes thinking what was going too happened. But nothing happened so I opened my eyes his face was still close to mine.
"You have to promise me not to go near the girls in the leaf village okay?" He said in a calm but concerned voice.
"I-I don't even know what I did."I said in a stutter
"I don't care right now. Right now you need to stay away from them and you will figure out what happened when you get you memory back." He said but this time he sounded stern and it sort of frightened me.
