Walk Away

Author Notes: I do not own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does. I also don't own the song "Love is You." Thomas Godoj does; all rights are his.

This story is for my wife.

Everyone Enjoy!

Love is you

How did it come to this? How did our roads cross away from eachother?

Temari laid in bed next to her forbidden love. They were not meant to be. They were not suppose to fall for each other. Treason, what they both committed. This was the last time either parties would see one another. That was the agreement that the Sand Princess made with the Lazy Genius.

Tears threatened to tear her heart apart as the blond lay in total darkness. The heavy monsoon rain had begun hours ago. The dark haired man lay beside her, fast asleep. Temari's eyes wandered over the rise and fall of his bare chest.

'Why did I make him tell me the truth?!' she growled , grazing her soft hand over his sleeping face.

Shikamaru let a sigh escape his rough lips as Temari traced over them.

"Tell me the truth!" Temari demanded, hitting his bare wet chest.

"You're not giving me much of a choice here!" Shikamaru growled, pulling the sand kunoichi into his arms. "Either I lie and I get to keep you, or I tell you the truth and I lose you forever!" he snapped, holding on to her arms firmly.

"I need to know! If you love me, then this can't go on," she whispered, now trembling in his strong arms.

"I don't love you," Shikamaru lied, trying desperately to hide his pain.

"Liar," the blond snapped, turning away from the lazy man before her.

"What about you? How do you feel about me?!" Shikamaru demanded.

"I-I-I Love you!" Temari confessed, swallowing her pride. "It's over. We can't do this anymore," she sighed, looking down.

"Tell me a lie! Please, Temari! Don't end us!" Shikamaru pleaded, almost getting down on his knees.

"I'm sorry, Shikamaru. I can't lie to you, I can't keep lying to me," she sighed, wrapping her delicate arms around his bare back. "I want you gone by morning, we can't "just" be "friends" any longer," the blond kunoichi said.

"Then let me have one last night with you," the Konoha shinobi said, gently kissing the forbidden woman.

Love is you
Seeing things like you do
Waking up next to you
Wanna give you all
All that I am
Love is you
You turn this world in two
Something I never knew
A beauty surrounds you
Love is you
