It was a hot day in Konohagakure. But that was the least of Naru problems. As she sat on her bed making a list.

After the war Naru and came to an understanding with Kurama and that seemed to make life easier. But Naru still felt like she was behind her peers in the relationship area.

Naru was so busy training and chase Sasuke, that she had avoided relationships of the sexual kind altogether. She was a 17 years old a war hero and couldn't even think about male private parts. She had some of the most perverted sensei's in history, yet that couldn't prepare her for this.

So she did what she did with everything make a list and train for it.

'Kit, you can not be serious. Just go up to the nearest male smell them and undress.' Kurama growled"No, for one that's rude and for two creepy. Also, I would attract the wrong type of attention. I want to feel safe". Naru whined.

Naru's list consist of pros and cons.

Naru started to think about Shikamaru more in-depth. She knows she was attracted to him as soon as she saw him with his hair down and that tight Ninja fishnet shirt in the first genin exams. But she was so focused on Sasuke and his injuries she pushed it to the back of her mind. Plus, everyone thought she was in love with Sasuke and that could be further from the truth she thought of him as a brother, who ass she had to kick from time to time. Plus he does even make the list.

But, Naru let the attraction for Shikamaru go to the back of her mind, when he started dating Temari. Plus, Naru was not going to step in someone else happiness. And from the outside looking in, they both seem so happy. Naru could admit though it made her a little jealous.

Naru laid out on her bed with her arms crossed over her face and the notebook for pros and cons laid across her stomach.

Naru values friendship and she had been avoiding Shikamaru due to his relationship with the blond from Suna. Not that he noticed with war and everything else going on.

Naru bit her lip. She knows the other reason she avoids him was because of one of the nights she was traveling with Pervy-sage. She had seen a deer and that lead her to think about the now Nara Clan Leader. She remembered sneaky away to a hot spring. Letting her fingers trail down her body and learning to tease her sex. But was surprised her more was that she thought of Shikamaru and she felt ashamed for lusting after a taken man.

Naru lifted one of her arms from her head and made a first at her side. She could still feel the effects of that first orgasm like a memory just out of reach.

Naru jump up she had made her decision. She was going cloud gazing and maybe deer hunting.

let me know what you think.
