Ch-6
"Yes. Temari of the Sand, will you marry me?"
I could not believe my ears. Did he ... Did Shikamaru Nara seriously just propose to me?
"Well you see it only seems logical," he said.
"Logical? We're both twenty-five!"
"Yes, that is a popular time that couples began settling down and start having kids. We already have a baby on the way. And would you really want to raise the child by yourself? If I remember correctly your mother was killed in childbirth. So did your father do a fantastic job raising you that you believe you can do it by yourself too? I know you may be a very gifted ninja, but parenthood? You're going to need my help. And plus, it could be a diplomatic marriage. You're from Suna, and I am from Konaha. I am a clan leader heir and you are brother of the Kazekage. An-"
"Shikamaru! Be quiet! I need to think about this without babbling reasons why into my ear!" I snapped.
Shikamaru looked shocked, obviously when he said more than one word, he usually wasn't told to put a sock in it.
"And you're scarier than my mother."
I was confused. Why did it matter that I was scarier than his mother? All his other reasons actually had validity, but this one was downright strange.
"What?"
"You're scarier than my mother," he repeated.
"Why does that matter?"
"My dad always says without women, men can't be born. Without women, men go to ruin. Even the hardest of women will show a sweet side to the man she loves and respects and behind every strong man, there is an even stronger women. My mother is the scariest woman I know, next to you. So who knows, maybe you might teach me something."
I stared at Shikamaru as if he just spoke Chinese. Scary equals good? Me teach him something? Even stronger women? What? He managed to confuse me even more.
"It's not important. But what is important is that you answer me," he said.
I sat there and really thought it over. Would I really move away from my home? Would I really be able to marry Shikamaru and be happy about it? Was I going to do the right thing? Was I ready to settle? What would happen if Shikamaru or I died on a mission? What would happen to our child. Our child. What would be best for it. To be raised in Suna with only a mother or in Konaha with two parents? Our child. This was all for our child. I touched my stomach, where our baby was growing. Logic wasn't going to play a role in my decision. I was going to listen to my heart. And it told me . . .
AN:/ Who loves me?
