Being a dad means realizing that last month's maternity clothes don't necessarily fit this month's maternity body.

Seeing Kiba need new maternity clothes was quite funny. Shikamaru liked to separate into three different stages of denial.

Stage One: Comment on how old clothes still fit like a charm

"Kiba, don't you think its time for some new clothes?" Shikamaru said as Kiba came down the stairs. Kiba was struggling to button up his pants.

"I bought these clothes last month! I don't need new ones!" Kiba snapped. How could his clothes not be fitting?

"Yeah, but you gain weight and its a lot less troublesome to just pay you new clothes than it is to spend an hour getting the old clothes on."

"Its not a matter of troublesome! Its a matter of me not wanting to get new clothes and saving money."

Stage Two: Complain during the walk to the maternity clothing store

"Shika, I don't need new clothes. My clothes back home are perfect. I can wear them." Kiba explained pouting. He and Shika were walking to the maternity clothes store, which wasn't that far from their house. It was an OK walk, it would have been shorter going on Akamaru but Yoshino Nara wasn't going to risk having anything happen to her grand babies.

"If your old clothes are perfect than why did we have to spend half an hour just pulling your shirt down?"

"Because the shirt was angry with us."

"Just like your pants."

Stage Three: Give up and suck up all sense of dignity and a buy a shirt.

"How about this one?" Kiba asked leaving the dressing room. He was wearing a white shirt that said in yellow and green graffiti style letters 'Don't Worry It's Not Yours'

"Great, can we leave now?"

"You're the one who wanted to come here in the first place!"

And then the three stages of Shikamaru suffering in clothing stores began.
