So Hollow
Inspired by a picture on deviant art of Shikamaru with his hair down, the link is on my profile.
Summary: ShikaxNaru pairing. This is very alternative universe and a lot of out-of-characters. Shikamaru is very out of character, he is still lazy and intelligent but he is a bit of a bad boy at Konoha High. Naruto is a new transfer student. Eventual yaoi and shounen-ai, lemon, hot man sex.
Story Warnings: Yaoi means boy on boy! Shikamaru is going to be the dominant one in the relationship, so if you don't like that turn back now. There will be sex scenes later on, but there will be warnings in that chapter for underage readers or people who don't like to read smut. Oh yeah, there is also cursing. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
Author note: This chapter is pretty much just character description so feel free to skim, but some characters do look and act different so it is beneficial to read this.
Chapter One
"Fuck this shit." Shikamaru drawled out as he took a drag off a cigarette.
"I know what you mean, man." Kiba responded, eager to agree with the leader of their group.
Shikamaru was the18 year old unofficial leader of their group of friends at Konoha high. Shikamaru was an intelligent boy who didn't give a shit about anything except for smoking and occasionally kicking people's asses. His dark brunette hair was thick and cut hap hazardously so it fell in chunks around his shoulders. His right eyebrow was pierced and both of his ears.
Their little group included Shikamaru Nara, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, Rock Lee and Neji Hyuga, all seniors at the high school. They had all been friends since they were in elementary school and stuck together though everything, they had even all turned into bad boys together.
It had all started when they had gotten bored with monotone life of Konoha and were looking for something different. Shikamaru was always skipping class and not paying attention so it wasn't that big of a leap for him to just say "screw it" all together. When the Akatsuki gang beat up Rock Lee is friends had responded in kind and realized how fun it was to do so.
Since then they had been battling with the Akatsuki off and on, but they don't really consider themselves a "gang." They are just a group of friends who butt heads with a gang. The rest of the students at Konoha don't really understand this distinction.
Shikamaru and his friends were currently hanging out on the roof of the school skipping class. Shikamaru was bored, as usual, as were the rest of there crew. Nothing new had happened with the Akatsuki lately and Shikamaru felt a little fidgety. None of his friends seemed to share this desire for something new, so he hadn't really brought it up.
Naruto glanced around nervously at the front office, trying not to look as out of sorts as he felt.
"New student?" One of the secretaries said kindly. Naruto nodded his head and the woman smiled. "Relax; everyone has to go through that at least once. What's your name?"
"Naruto Uzumaki."
"Ahh, Uzumaki. That means you are with counselor Tsunade. Go down the hall and the fifth door on your right is her office.
"Thank you!" Naruto said, giving his 1000 watt smile. The secretary replied in kind and he went along his way.
Naruto was 19 years old with spiky blond hair and bright blue eyes that seemed too glamorous to be the real color. He was wearing an orange shirt that said 'Believe it!' and a pair of grey cargo pants.
He opened the door and the middle aged woman looked up from her desk. All Naruto could think was "Boobs!!" This was a natural reaction to such large breasts, so Tsunade forgave him for staring.
"He he, I'm Uzumaki, I'm starting school here today."
Tsunade smiled and gestured him into her office. "Let me look you up on my computer and I'll get your schedule printed off for you. I'll have someone with a similar schedule show you around."
Naruto tried to keep his eyes off her chest as printed it off. "There's a student with the same schedule as you, but he is usually not even in class so I'll page the school for him." Naruto nodded his thanks as Tsunade got onto the intercom.
"Shikamaru Nara to the guidance center, Shikamaru Nara please come to the guidance center. Don't make me come find you."
On the roof of the building said Nara rolled his eyes and stood up. "What a pain…" He left the other boys with a wave and strolled down to Tsunade's office. He wondered what the troublesome woman wanted this time; she was always on his case.
Shikamaru opened the door and blinked a few times at what he was seeing. From the back all Shikamaru could tell was that the kid had blond hair, but he had an alarmingly orange shirt on. And he had a cute butt. The boy turned around and gave him a smile, leaving Shikamaru momentarily disarmed. A cute face too…Orange suits him.
He let out a deep sigh in greeting. "Ah! Nara, so nice of you to join us."
"How troublesome…" The blond kid blinked at him and glanced at Tsunade.
"I want you to show around Mr. Naruto Uzumaki to all of his classes and help him get acquainted with the school. Which means," she gave him a rather pointed look, "you also have to attend your classes."
"Hn."
"Well go on," Naruto threw a panicked look over his shoulder at Tsunade, which Shikamaru caught, causing him to smirk. "He doesn't bite. Well," she glowered at him, "Who knows what he gets up to these days."
Shikamaru's smirk deepened and Naruto didn't look very relieved.
"Um, okay…" They walked outside and Naruto recovered himself. "Nice to meet you, by the way!" Shikamaru just stuck his hands in his pockets apathetically in response. The boy might be cute, but that was no reason for Shikamaru to change his ways.
"So do you, ah, not normally go to class?"
Naruto was trying desperately for conversation; the silence between them kind of freaked him out. He was also a little teensy bit afraid of the boy. He was wearing a fishnet shirt underneath a baggy black t shirt that said 'I don't really care,' with black pants and cargo boots. He had a pierced eyebrow and jagged hair that hit his shoulder.
"Class is boring." Shikamaru honored him with a short response.
"What do you do instead of go to class?"
"We're here now." Their first class was math with Iruka Umino as their professor. He looked up and was startled to see Shikamaru in this class as well as a new student.
"Well, Mr. Nara, thank you for gracing us with your presence." A shrug from Shikamaru. "And you are?"
"Ah! Uzumaki Naruto, transferred here today." Iruka nodded and smiled at him,
"Well how about you introduce yourself to the class."
"Um, my name is Naruto Uzumaki and I like ramen!" He gave a big grin to the class and propped his hands behind his head, showing off a sliver of tanned stomach that a few were leaning forward in their seats to get a closer look at.
"Welcome Naruto!" Iruka said cheerily, "You can sit by Sasuke and since you don't have any books yet he would gladly share with you. Right Sasuke?" The black haired boy glowered in response but didn't say anything. "Okay Naruto! He's the sulky boy in the back on the right, across from Mr. Nara."
Naruto gave Iruka a grin and swing his knapsack lightly as he strolled to the back. Most of the students liked him already for his happy disposition and were smiling back just as happily.
In the back Shikamaru and Sasuke were glowering at each other hatefully. It was well known that Sasuke was the little brother of Itachi Uchiha who was a member of the Akatsuki gang. Therefore he and Shikamaru did not get along.
Naruto sat next to Sasuke and tried to ignore the tense atmosphere. "Um, thanks for sharing with me Sasuke!"
"Hn."
Naruto sighed. There were lots of smiley people in this class, he had seen them, but instead he was stuck between two anti-social guys who seemed to be glowering at each other more than paying attention. Hopefully his other classes weren't like that.
Okay! So that's the first chapter, just had to get that out of the way. And there is a vote! Do you want another guy to have a crush/ one-sided relationship with Naruto…? A) No, I just want to read a ShikaxNaru damn it! B) Sasuke C) Gaara D) Other, and please specify.
Yosh! Please review!
