Lovelyanime: Welcome everyone to Red String Of Fate. This is going to be my project for my summer vacation and it should be finished by the time of my birthday or when schools starts for me again. I'm not going to be working on the other stories that I promised for a while because I just haven't had the inspiration to write them up. I'm very sorry about that. Here's the summary to the story

Summary:Naruto, Sasuke, and Shikamaru go to Suna to retrieve a woman with a mysterious bloodline. Later Naruto learns what that bloodline is and why she is visiting Konoha. Will he be able to help her? And will she be able to help him with his problem?

Lovelyanime: This story inspired me from the manga Absolute Boyfriend chapter of when Riiko and Night went to the hot springs and were in that race against the other couple. I read it when it was in the Shojo Beat magazine so I've had this idea in my head for a LONG time. My OC in the story is named after the woman in the same chapter of Absolute Boyfriend, Sarina. They don't have the same personality though.

Naruto: Hey, aren't you forgetting something? You know, something that you would like your fans to know?

Lovelyanime: Umm… no?

Naruto: Sigh… I feel sorry for the guy… You have a boyfriend now?

Lovelyanime: Oh! That…Um… yes lol my boyfriend RagingDragon04 has been helping me with the story. He has really been a lot of help to me with this and he's the one that told me to post it up already. We both hope everyone enjoys the story and are looking forword to your reviews.

Naruto: Yeah, that and the fact that she's all exited with it. She's been talking to him from night to dawn. The poor girl is in love. Hahahaha

Lovelyanime: Naruto! T.T You'll pay for this!

Naruto: Whoops gotta go! Enjoy!

Title- Red String Of Fate

Chapter: Love's Shadow

"How long is it before we find this girl?" Asked a blonde teenage boy as he walked with a group of his teammates. His name was Uzumaki Naruto and he was on a mission with a few of his friends to search for a girl somewhere in Suna and and travel with her back to Konoha. His friend Gaara, the Kazekage, was unable to have his own ninjas of his village to do the mission because they were all already doing other important things. So he asked the Hokage to send some of her shinobis to retreive the girl since she was going to their village anyway and wanted to see Naruto. It had been a long time since the two had seen each other.

"Quit asking that over and over again. We're almost there." Said Naruto's best friend Sasuke. "You are such a baka."

Another teen boy that was with them, and was the leader of the mission, yawned. "How troublesome. Why is it that I have to be here stuck with you two?"

Naruto just laughed at Shikamaru. "You don't care that you're with us, do you? You just don't want to come because you don't want to see Temari."

Shikamaru glared at the blonde. "What makes you say that?"

"Well, ever since you heard that Temari got herself a boyfriend, you get in such a bad mood everytime someone mentions her or the guy she's with."

Shikamaru turned away. "Just shut up. Sasuke is right, you're a troublesome baka."

"Hey!"

The three boys traveled together to Suna, unaware that the mission with the girl would change their life forever...Love life that is. They truly were ignorent of what kind of power this ordinary girl held.

It wasn't long before they made it inside of Suna. They quickly went to the Kazekage office. They knocked on the office door and waited until they heard someone call out to them to come in.

"Hey Gaara! What's up buddy!" Said Naruto very loudly, recieving glares from his teammates.

Gaara sat there at his desk, not even galncing up from the paperwork that he was writing. "Hello Naruto." He set down his pen and stood. He looked at Naruto, Sasuke, and Shikamaru and walked around his desk towards them. "It has been a while. It is good to see you again."

"Same here! I was so excited when baa-chan gave me this mission. I wish it wasn't a c ranked mission, I wanted something more challenging than escorting someone."

"Actually..." Gaara began. "I believe there is more to this mission than just escorting."

"What do you mean?"

"The girl has asked if it was okay if you would be her guards at her stay in Konoha."

"Why would she want that do you think?"

Sasuke shook his head. "Isn't it obvious? Someone must be searching for her and she doesn't want to be found. The person could be dangerous."

Shikamaru groaned. "This is going to be more troublesome than I thought. We'll talk to Tsunade-sama about this when we return to Konoha."

Gaara nodded. "Very good. Now, would you three want to go have dinner with my siblings and me? The girl said that she's in no hurry to leave, just as long as you guys stay nearby."

Naruto pumped his fist into the air as he cheered, yelling "yatta!" Sasuke and Shikamaru on the other hand, they didn't exactly look very happy.

"I didn't come on this mission to socialize." Sasuke crossed his arms over his chest, glaring at the blonde in annoyance.

Shikamaru nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I don't think Tsunade-sama would be happy if she found out that we've been having fun instead of doing our job."

Naruto stopped cheering suddenly and turned to his teammates. "What?! Oh come on! Who cares about baa-chan! I haven't seen Gaara, Kankuro, or Temari in a long time!"

"I think Shikamaru is right Naruto." Said Gaara. "But perhaps, one dinner wouldn't hurt?"

Shikamaru thought about this for a moment. Then he glanced at Sasuke to see what he thought about it.

Sasuke just shrugged. "We do need to rest and a good fill of food after traveling so far. It would probably be for the best."

Shikamaru sighed. He was hoping Sasuke would say no and that they should hurry up back to Konoha. It seemed luck wasn't on his side. "Fine, we'll have dinner, rest for the night, and then leave first thing in the morning."

Everyone else seemed to agree. Gaara called in for someone to lead them to the hotel that he registered for Naruto and the others to stay in. He told them before they left that Kankuro will show up there in two hours to retrieve them for dinner.

As soon as Naruto was inside of his room, he dropped his bag and flopped onto the bed. He was a bit tired from the traveling and decided to take a quick nap before having leave for dinner."

Naruto's Dream

Naruto walked through a forest, the sound of a waterfall nearby. He couldn't help but follow that sound as it seemed he had no control of his feet. The sound became louder, he could see a clearing up ahead. When he finally arrived to the clearing of the waterfall, he felt as if he had been there before. He continued to walk towards the waterfall, but he stopped when he saw something.

There, dancing on the water was a girl with long hair and a developed body. He was to far away to see her face so he began to walk over to her, this time on his own free will. He then suddenly stopped and looked down. He was about to slip into the water, but luckily he stopped just in time. He then focused his chakra to his feet and began to walk onto the water, quietly so the girl didn't notice him. Unfortunately, she stopped what she was doing and looked at him. He could was about to call out to her, but she ran away before he could even utter a word out. Then suddenly the scenery changed and he was in the streets of Konoha. Down the street ahead of him was a the waterfall girl, but this time she was wearing clothes and there was a man standing next to her. The man next to her put an arm around her waist and was grinning. For some reason Naruto felt anger rise within him, but also heartbreak. He tried to walk over to the two, but they seemed to get farther away with every step he took. He began to run, only to feel the earth underneath him crumble into pieces. He fell into a endless pit that was complete darkness. He looked up as he fell, only to see tearful lavender eyes looking right down at him. Then the man she was with looked down and grinned more than he was before.

"Naruto-kun!" The girl screamed his name, before he could no longer see her and instead darkness.

End of dream

Naruto sat up, panting as he tried to catch his breath. He was then startled when he heard a knock at the door.

"Yo Naruto! Are you in there?"

"Kankuro!" Naruto grinned when he heard the older boy's voice. He got up from his bed and made it to the door. He opened it up to see Kankuro standing there. "Hey, what's up? Been a while."

"Yeah, it has. Now hurry up and get ready, I'm here to pick you up."

"Huh? What time is it?" He looked around for a clock and saw one on the nightstand next to his bed. "Wow, I've been asleep for two hours? Damn, sure didn't seem like it."

"Yeah well, hurry up. I already sent Sasuke and Shikamaru down to the lobby."

'Shit!" Naruto shut the door in Kankuro's face and quickly changed into clean clothes. He went into the bathroom and wet his hair real quick, trying to make his hair spike up some. After a few minutes he finished getting ready and came out into the hallway where Kankuro was still standing. "Okay, lets go."

Kankuro nodded and walked down the hallway with Naruto following. They made it into the lobby and was met with Sasuke and Shikamaru. "Took you long enough." Sasuke muttered.

The blonde just ignored him, he was to busy thinking of the dream that he had. He wondered who the girl was. Was she someone he knew? Was it the same girl from the waterfall five years ago when he was on a mission with team 8? Whoever it was, he couldn't stop thinking of her and the man that kept grinning. He felt anger rise as he imagined punching the guy in the face to make that stupid grin disappear. What exactly had the dream been about though? Was it the demon kitsune inside of him? Was he just messing with Naruto so he could have a good laugh?

"Hey, what's wrong with you dobe?" Asked Sasuke. "Why are you so quiet?" Shikamaru and Kankuro were already up ahead of them, chatting with one another.

"Huh? Oh...Um...I'm just thinking." Replied Naruto.

"You? Thinking? That's a first." Sasuke smirked.

"uh-huh..." Naruto wasn't paying much attention, making Sasuke frown. This wasn't like him. He wondered what was wrong, he was perfectly hyper and active, but now...Something was definitely wrong.

"Kankuro!" Came a woman's voice from behind. Everyone looked and saw a dirty blonde woman running up to them.

"What are you doing here Temari? I thought you were already home with Gaara."

Temari stopped running and walked the rest of the way to her brother. "Iie, I went to the store real quick to pick up some sake." She didn't seem to notice Shikamaru as she walked pass him and went over to Naruto and Sasuke. "Hey guys, how have you been?"

"Okay I guess." Naruto grinned, trying to put the dream behind him and move on.

"Hn..." Was the Uchiha's only reply.

"How troublesome." Shikamaru said loudly, making Temari turn to look at him.

"Oh, hey Shikamaru. Didn't see you there."

"Whatever." He began to walk, not caring if anyone was following him.

Temari glared at the lazy boy's back. "What the hell is his problem?"

"You know how he is, he just wants this to be over with." Said Naruto.

"Guess you're right..." Temari stopped glaring and sighed. Lets hurry up, don't want to keep Gaara and Sarina-chan waiting."

"Who's Sarina?" Naruto asked, never hearing that name before.

"She's the girl that you guys will be escorting." Said Kankuro.

"Yeah, we've been hanging out together." Temari said as decided to walk, making everyone else follow her. "She asked me if it was okay if she could join dinner with us, you know, just to get to know you guys before having to leave."

"Guess that is a good idea." Naruto said as he thought about it. He could understand, there weren't any girls on this mission so she would probably be careful. Don't want to be with a bunch of perverts that could take advantage with her. "Oh hey Temari, how has your boyfriend doing?" Seeing that Shikamaru was out of earshot, Naruto decided to ask.

The sand nin shrugged her shoulders. "We broke up last week. He wasn't my kind of guy so I dumped him."

"Really? I thought you seemed very happy with him from what Gaara wrote in his letters to me."

"Well, I was happy, but it felt like something was missing. Something that he couldn't give me." Temari glanced ahead at Shikamaru and tried to hold back a smile. After she got a boyfriend Shikamaru had stopped writing to her. But now, seeing him here in Suna, she felt something inside her happy to see him...And annoyed, he seemed to have such a bad attitude. He could have at least said hi instead of 'whatever' to her!

It wasn't long before they made it to Gaara and his sibling's home. Kankuro and Temari lead them through the house, a little tour, until they reached the dining room. There, sitting at the table alone, was Gaara. The Sarina girl was no where in sight.

The red headed Kazekage stood from his seat and walked over to Naruto and the others. "It is good that you have finally arrived. I was wondering what was taking you so long."

"Naruto here was asleep like a rock and then he had to get ready." Kankuro laughed then grew serious and glared at the blonde. "The idiot shut the door in my face."

"Nani? I don't remember that..." Naruto scratched his head, thinking. "Oh wait, I did, didn't I? Oh well! Who cares about you anyway! Lets eat already!"

"You baka! You can at least apologize to me!" Yelled Kankuro, clenching his right fist tightly towards Naruto.

"I see my escort is here." Came a female voice from behind the group. Everyone looked to see a woman, around the age of 18, with long brown hair that reached past her waist in a braid and part of her bangs covering her left eye, which was the color red with no pupils. She wore a red Kimono with a golden obi holding it together. "It is very nice to meet you."

Sasuke didn't bother to say anything while his teammates introduced themselves to the woman. He seemed to ignore her as he went to sit down at the table. "Can we hurry up and eat, I want to head back to my room."

Everyone agreed and went to sit down. As Temari went to sit by Gaara, Shikamaru was about to sit in another chair away from her. That was until Sarina stopped him.

"If you don't mind, I would like to sit here." She told him as she grabbed his sleeve. "Why don't you sit right here?" She pulled him over a seat over, right next to Temari. She pushed him down onto the chair before he could protest.

No one seemed to notice this, besides Naruto as he watched the woman move his friend. He thought it was quite odd she moved him like that. He looked over at Temari. Did she do something to Sarina that made her want to sit somewhere besides her?

Everyone was seated down and chat with each other. They all were enjoying themselves, except for Shikamaru who looked like he wanted to get out of there. Their food soon arrived not long and they all dug in. Naruto, for once, was not having ramen. No, over the years he began eating other foods after Hinata convinced him while eating with Shino and Kiba at a diner.

"Then I was laughing my ass off when the bucket fell over his head!" Naruto told everyone of his prank on Jiraiya, making a certain puppet master who had a little to much sake laugh as he hit the table with his fist.

Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Idiot, when are you going to grow up and stop acting so childish?"

Sarina giggled a bit. "But Sasuke-san, it sounded like this Jiraiya person deserved it."

"Oh yeah? I don't think I deserved it when he stole all my clothes and replaced them with our friend Sakura's at a hot springs."

"HAHAHAHAH!" Roared Kankuro with laughter. "I wish I could've seen that!"

Naruto grinned. "That was years ago! Don't you know how to let these things go?"

Sasuke glared at his soon-to-be-dead best friend. He heard the girl Sarina giggle again, making him glare over towards her.

Sarina saw his glare and quickly stopped. "Gomennasai, I-I didn't mean to let that out...Demo...I'm sure you were really cute in girl's clothing." She smiled innocently at him.

Sasuke sighed as he stood up. "I'm going back to the hotel. I'm tired and we have a long journey ahead of us." He walked away with everyone watching him. When they couldn't see him anymore, they heard the front door slam shut.

"Oh dear," Sarina put her hands to her mouth. "I didn't upset him did I? I mean, it wasn't a funny joke so I thought he wouldn't get angry."

"Don't worry about him." Naruto reassured her. "He's so used to his fan girls praising him, he can't handle it when a girl tries to insult him, even jokingly."

"I see..." A sad look came across her face. "To bad it seems he won't be able to be with any of them..." She mumbled the last part to herself.

Shikamaru then stood up. "I think I'll leave too. Thanks for the food." He took a few steps before he heard Temari's voice.

"I'll come with you." She stood from her seat.

Shikamaru rolled his eyes. "Why? I'm old enough to walk by myself and I know my way around. I don't need some troublesome baby sitter with me."

Temari was shocked and looked to be hurt by his comment. She quickly recovered and was angry. "Well excuse me for trying to be polite! I should have known not to offer kindness to a jackass like you!"

Shikamaru turned to her and glared. "Good, who needs a troublesome woman's help."

Gaara, Naruto, Sarina, and Kankuro sat there quietly...Well, Kankuro was just laughing, whispering something to Naruto about having a dinner and a show.

Temari was growing more angry with Shikamaru. "Will you stop saying troublesome?! Dammit! It's so annoying that you say it every time you talk!

Shikamaru was also getting angry. "I wouldn't have to if people like you would just stop being so stupid."

"Stupid am I?! You're the only idiot in this room right now!"

BAM!

Temari and Shikamaru quickly looked over at the noise made. It was Sarina. She was standing up with her fist on the table. "Will you two please stop it! You two should never fight with each other!"

"He/she started it!" Both Temari and Shikamaru pointed at each other.

"I don't care! Just please stop!" Sarina seemed a bit terrified of the situation. "You two are meant not meant to hate each other!"

Temari crossed her arms over her chest and began to walk away. "Too late for that. From today on I never want to see Nara Shikamaru!"

Shikamaru rolled his eyes. "Whatever, troublesome woman. Have it your way." He then headed out the door as Temari headed up to her bedroom.

All was now quiet. Not a word uttered from anyone left at the table. Naruto sat there, shifting his eyes towards the ways Shikamaru and Temari left. Sarina was still standing, unsure of what to do with the situation. Gaara...He just sat there and ate as if nothing had happened.

"Aw...The show's over..." Kankuro whined after deciding to brake the silence.

Gaara picked up a napkin and wiped his lips with it. "I apologize about this Naruto."

"Huh? Oh, it's alright." Naruto stood up from his seat. "I think I'll just go to the hotel to try to talk to Shikamaru. Thanks for the food."

"Perhaps next time you come for a visit something like this won't happen."

"It's alright. I'll see ya later Gaara!" Naruto was about to leave but the stopped. "Sarina-san, my teammates and I will be back tomorrow morning to pick you up."

Sarina nodded her head slowly. "Hai, goodnight Naruto-san. Have a safe walk."

Naruto then left. He tried to hurry to catch up with Shikamaru, but he was unable to find the boy. When he made it to the hotel he tried knocking on the boy's door, but there was no answer. Naruto was to tired for this so he headed to his room to get some sleep. He laid on his bed.

He was a little afraid to close his eyes. He thought the dream, he had earlier was going to come back.

"Who was that girl?" He whispered to himself as he rolled onto his side. "She was the same girl from the waterfall, I know that so far. But...Could she be someone else I know?" He placed his hand over his chest. "And why the hell did it hurt when I saw her with that guy?"

Naruto continued to think about the girl for a while longer before his eyes finally closed. He didn't have the dream again, nope, all he dreamt about was being Hokage with ramen everywhere.

The next morning...

Naruto put grabbed his backpack and went out into the hotel's hallway. There, he saw Sasuke coming out of his room.

"Hey Sasuke-teme." Naruto greeted his friend.

"Hn..."

Shikamaru came out of his room. Naruto noticed he had bags under his eyes. "What time did you go to sleep last night?"

Shikamaru ignored his and headed down the hallway. "What's his problem?" Sasuke asked.

"He got in a fight with Temari last night." Naruto told the Uchiha.

Sasuke just rolled his eyes at this. "You're joking right? Who cares about some woman."

Shikamaru suddenly stopped walking and turned around to glare at Sasuke. "What the hell did you just say Uchiha?" The glare that Sasuke was receiving was one of the deadliest he had ever seen. Naruto was even afraid of the glare and was shivering like a leaf.

"N-Nothing Shikamaru!" Naruto tried saying. Shikamaru glared a little more before heading back down the hallway. "Damn, I've never seen Shikamaru glare like that before, kind of scary."

"He wasn't that frightening." Sasuke began following his teammate.

Kazekage's office...

"Gomen na sai, but it seems you will have to wait to leave." Gaara said as he was going through some paperwork. "Your client has become ill."

"She was fine last night! What happened?" Naruto asked.

"I am not sure. When Temari went to see if Sarina was ready to leave, she was still laying in bed. Temari thinks she shouldn't travel in her condition."

Naruto crossed his arms over his chest. "So...Does this mean we have to stay longer until she is better?"

"Seems that way..."

Shikamaru flinched when he heard this. "We can't do that."

Gaara looked up from his paperwork. "And why is that?"

"Because Tsunade-sama wants us back as soon as possible."

"Is that so?"

Shikamaru yawned, trying not to show that he was nervous about the situation. "Hai. We have more important things than something as troublesome as this."

"But this is important." Naruto tried telling Shikamaru. "She is our client and she becomes sick. We have to take care of her. Baa-chan wouldn't be happy if we left the girl behind."

"He's right you know." Sasuke said. "She would be a lot madder if we left the client behind instead of doing our job."

Shikamaru saw that it was two against one. No matter how smart he was, he knew that he wasn't going to win this. "Fine, you guys go check how she is. I'm going to check us back into the hotel."

"There is no need for that." Gaara told him. "I will take care of that myself. You go along with your teammates." He looked Shikamaru in the eyes. This irritated Shikamaru because he knew what Gaara was up to. He knew that Temari was still with Sarina and Gaara just wanted them to get all the complication out of the way.

A little while later...

Te three boys made it to the Kazekage's home where the girl Sarina was staying. They were welcomed inside by a tired looking Kankuro and lead up to the room to where the girl was in. They opened the door to see her lying in bed with Temari sitting at her side. Both girls looked up to see the guys enter. As soon as Temari saw Shikamaru she quickly turned away.

"How are you feeling Sarina-san?" Naruto asked.

"Not very well I'm afraid." The red eyed girl told him. "I feel so weak that I can't get out of bed. I feel very hot and sometimes have a hard time breathing."

"Sounds kind of serious." Sasuke sat in a chair near the window. He set his backpack on the ground next to him. "Why don't you go to the hospital?"

Sarina smiled at him. "I'll be ok so there's no need to do that." Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her, something was up with this girl. Ever since last night at dinner he felt something strange going on with her. "I only wish for one of you to stay with me, so you may leave." She looked at Naruto and Shikamaru. "Hmm...I think I would like...You to stay here with me." She pointed at Shikamaru.

Shikamaru was taken a back by this "What? But why?"

"Because I would feel better if at least one of my bodyguards was with me. And you seem like you will be good."

"I don't think so. Naruto can stay."

Naruto nodded. "Yeah, I'm the best for the job!"

Sarina tapped her finger on her chin. "I don't know...I still want Pineapple-san to stay. He seems he may do well."

Naruto laughed. "Pineapple! Hahahahaha!"

"Why do you even need me? What am I even going to do for you?" Shikamaru asked as he ignored Naruto's laughter.

"You'll be taking care of me. You are my bodyguards and it is your job to do things for me. Temari-chan here is not working for me and I don't want her doing anything. She has already been kind enough for me to stay here in her house. I cannot ask for anymore than that."

Temari said nothing and seemed to be a bit nervous. Sasuke noticed this but said nothing of it. He glanced at Shikamaru and saw he was a little nervous himself.

"...Fine." Shikamaru mumbled. "Troublesome woman..."

Sarina's smile grew. "Thank you very much. Your friends may leave now."

Naruto hesitated to exit the room, unsure if it was okay to leave his friend here. He was having troubles with Temari right now and Naruto didn't think it was a good idea for him to be here. But he listened to Sarina and left. Sasuke got up from the chair and followed Naruto. His backpack was still lying on the ground.

Temari stood up from her seat. "I think I'm going to get some tea. Would you like any Sarina-chan?"

"Oh that would be nice. Pineapple-san, will you help her out?"

"Why? She can do it herself."

"Hai, but it is not nice to make her do everything for me. You are then one that should be helping me, not her. I already know she'll refuse to make the tea, but I'm she can't refuse some help."

Shikamaru just sighed. He didn't feel like arguing with the older woman. He set his backpack onto the ground and left the room. Temari did not move and just stood there next to Sarina's bed.

Sarina grabbed Temari's hand and patted it lightly. "Don't worry Temari-chan. Everything will turn out just fine. Just remember what we talked about last night."

Temari nodded her head. "Thank you Sarina-chan." She took a deep breath and headed toward the exit. "Here I go."

She walked down the hallway, seeing Shikamaru already far ahead of her. She wanted to stay behind him, but he had turned around and asked her to lead the way since it was he wasn't exactly sure will the kitchen was. They soon made it to the kitchen and Temari told Shikamaru to get the cups while she got the tea.

'Okay, this is it." Temari thought to herself. 'While you're making the tea try talking to him about last next." She opened the cupboard and saw that the tea bag was on the highest shelf. 'Try to work things out and then tell him that you're not going out with that guy anymore.' She reached up for the tea bag, but wasn't able to get it. 'Then tell him how you really feel." She went on her tippy toes but still couldn't get the tea. 'To prove your feelings, give him a hug and a kiss on the chee- WHY THE HELL CAN'T I REACH THE STUPID TEA?!' she grew frustrated and was about to climb on top of the counter, but was to late.

"Here." Shikamaru had walked up behind her and grabbed the tea bag. He set it put it in her hands, their fingers touching. Temari blushed at the contact.

"Thanks." She turned her looked up to at the young man, seeing how close they really were. She quickly looked away from embarrassment. She waited for him to move, but he didn't. Temari slowly looked back at him only to see him staring at her. "Wh-what?" She cursed herself, she felt like the grey eyed girl from Konoha as Shikamaru stared at her like that.

"...Nothing..." He took a step back from her.

"Nothing huh? Sure doesn't seem like it."

"Oh yeah? What makes you so sure? And why would you even care anyway?"

Temari glared at Shikamaru. "Maybe it's because you're having a bad attitude ever since you got arrived and I care because...I just do!"

"Uh-huh, sure you do."

"You don't believe me? Is it really that hard to think that I can care for you or something?"

"Not when you have a boyfriend."

"I broke up with him!"

Shikamaru was surprised at what he had hear her just say. "When did that happen?"

"Last week! But what does it matter to you? You've been treating me like I'm not here and when you talk to me, you want to start a fight!" Tears were forming in her eyes, but she was strong and held them in. "You are such a damn jerk! How dare you even fucking treat me like this when I have done nothing wrong! I hate you now! You got that?! I never want to see your face agai-"

Shikamaru wrapped his arms around Temari's waist and pulled her to his chest. He then put his lips onto hers and kissed her hard. The blonde girl was shocked at this and tried to push him away. How dare he kiss her while she was trying to yell at him! Why she ought a...ought...She stopped resisting and wrapped her arms around his neck. Shikamaru ran his tongue across her lips for access to her mouth, which she responded by opening her mouth.

'Dammit, I'll yell at him later.' Temari thought as she ran her hands up to his head to pull his mouth harder onto hers. 'Right now this feels so good.' She moaned aloud. She felt Shikamaru run his hands up and down her back and were slowly coming towards to her front.

Meanwhile...

"Looks like everything is well between them now." Sarina sighed as she quietly watched Temari and Shikamaru make out through a cracked opened door. She nearly gagged. "Watching people make out is so gross. My job is done here so I think I'm just going to read some of Kankuro-kun's mangas."

Sarina turned around to leave but found someone standing right in front of her.

"S-Sasuke-san! What are you doing here?"

"I forgot my backpack and decided to come back to get it." In truth, Sasuke had purposely left it so he had an excuse to come back and check on the woman before him. "To weak to get out of bed huh?"

"Huh? Oh! Yeah, I...Ano...Feel much better now!" She started to push him down the hallway. "But I don't think I'll be able to make it back to my room all by myself. Will you help escort me?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her. "You're up to something." He suddenly heard a noise that sounded like a moan coming from the kitchen. "What's going on in there?"

"Nothing! Nothing that you need to see."

"Oh yeah?" He gently pushed her to the side so he could get passed her. She didn't give him a fight, in fact she seemed to move on her own.

"Fine, don't say I didn't warn you." She said innocently.

Sasuke pushed open the door to the kitchen to see a horrible sight before him. He quickly closed the door shut before the couple noticed her was there. He was red as can be and turned even redder when he heard a small giggle.

"Told you not to go in there Sasuke-san. Now lets go get your backpack, shall we" With that, Sarina skipped away happily with Sasuke slowly walking along.

End of Chapter

Lovelyanime: Okay, That's all for now. I'm already half way through with the second chapter so I'll try to hurry up and get that up for you guys. Now, I'm not going to respond to everyone's review like I usually do. I decided that I'm not going to so that for this story, but if anyone has a question I'll reply back with a pm. Ok, well that's it. Please don't forget to review please.
