"This isn't going to be easy," Shikamaru sighs. "You know that, right?"
"I'm not like you, lazyass," Temari laughs. "I don't only do things that are easy."
"I'm serious, Temari," he says softly. "Long distance relationships are tough."
Shikamaru looks up to meet her eyes and finds her smiling.
"You're worth it though," he tells her.
"Of course I am," Temari shrugs. "You don't even deserve me."
Shikamaru sighs and puts his arms around her, and she leans into his embrace.
"Anyway, the sex is bound to be fantastic if we're apart so much," Temari whispers.
Finally, Shikamaru smiles back.
