Lazy Day... 99 Red Balloons...

Sep 20, 2006 20:04

Shikamaru lied down in the spot he'd claimed since he was a kid and looked into the sky and watched the clouds. The weather was perfect, it was sunny, but not too sunny. And the white cumulus clouds hung over head to provide shade as they wandered past and there was a wonderful breeze... the perfect day. He sighed in contentment. There was nothing ( Read more... )

Nothing would ruin Shikamaru's day except for the presence of a pink haired Chuunin who'd been coming to the 'same' spot quite often at time Shikamaru hadn't been there. The kunoichi stretched out her back in a very lazy manner feeling incredibly sore from hospital duty, nothing like a wear down than healing and practicing medic tecniques. She could always go try and find Tsuande-sama but is she did well that 'just' might lead to mounds of paperwork and an all nighter. There was only so much Sakura could take!

Yes, a nice stretch in her new spot sounded wonderful- or would have if someone WASN'T blocking it. Her facemixed into a scowl as she looked over who'd snuck and stolen where she was going to lay, a familar chakra about them, hm there head was kind of tilted away-ah she'd know that pineapple hair anywhere!

"Oi Shikamaru get up! You're in my spot."

She gave his shoulders a light shake.

"Oi Shikamaru get up! You're in my spot."

"What the hell?" Shikamaru felt himself being viciously shaken ashe opened his eyes. "Nani? You're spot! Listen haka, I've been lying here since I was 5 what makes this your spot?" He said angrily before he realized it was Sakura who was second on his 'Do not get pissed' list. Right up there next to Ino. "Sakura!" He said surprised it was she. "Pfft... mendoukse..." He rubbed his head. "Don't you have to go and train or something..?" He asked in a tiered and annoyed voice. Why'd she have to come here? She was so... troublesome.

The tired Chuunin tapped her foot impatiently arms crossed and the sweet look gone form her face. She was about to retort with an angry comment of her own but those green eyes grew at his surprise. He hadn't known it was her?! Well she kind of hadn't known was him at first either...

Not like they hung out weekly or anything though, so why should she feel guilty for it. She honestly didn't, she just wanted her spot back. "I've been coming here for eight days, same spot, a you weren't anywhere around. It's like that saying of 'finders keepers." She kind of nodded to herself to further prove how right her words were, then just shook her head feeling more exhuasted.

"Just move and go find a nice grassy spot or something. I can't stand here all day."

Shikamaru plopped down non caring, "Sure you can. And why do I have to move? Girls are the one who listens to the men..." He said looking away from her. He could care less about what she thought. She was just a girl.

The girl made an irritated sound bringing her hand back through her pink strands with irritation. T-that jerk! What the hell kind of world did he live in?

"Girls do 'not' listen to men! Oi, alright let me change it around so you can undrstand. I am NOT standing here all day. Get out of my spot."

"Jeez! Fine... mendoukse..." He muttered as he got up, holding his hand out torward, "There have your spot... yare yare..." He shoved his hands in his pockets and was ready to walk off. "Mendoukse haka..."

Sakura fell back like she was falling onto a pillow, though she was careful enough not to bang her head. Now that was more like it! The kunoichi held back a yawn and stretched out her arms, one to the side and other over her head; giving a light smirk up to Shikamaru.

"See? That wasn't so hard now was it."

She seemed rather content with herself and looked up to the sky smiling tiredly at the clouds. "Isn't it amazing how many shapes there are? Ice cream cones, cows, fish, a castle...it's kind of neat." Why Sakura was coversating to the lazy nin like they were buddies, well she'd never really talked to him before had she?

The Chuunin was still a little grumpy from all the work piled on her today, but that never stopped her talkative nature.

Shikamaru stopped from walking and turned his head around. Raising a brow he said, "You don't know how to watch clouds at all..." He backed up and say next to her. "You don't watch the clouds for the shapes, but because it's relaxing... they don't have any problems..." He said enviously looking up. Damn... he wished he could be that carefree.

She furrowed her brow at that sitting up some, her arms stretched behind her back as the frown returned, was he really critisizing her on WATCHING CLOUDS? She was about to move over a little for him but the realization that she'd be giving up her spot struck home and she layed back down placing her arms behind her head in a lazy fashion.

"I 'like' to watch clouds for shapes."

"I 'like' to watch clouds for shapes."

"That's because you're a girl..." He said matter of fact, which almost led you to believe it was the truth. But Shikamaru, knew it wasn't, he just needed some sort of excuse. This girl did NOT know the art of cloud watching at ALL. He leaned forward and rested his head in his palm and sighed, he was bored. He wasn't about to admit this though because really... when was Shikamaru EVER bored? What he really wanted to do was find Asuma-sensei and play Shougi. But he was nowhere to be found. Probably on a mission. Then he wondered what that baka Naruto'd been doing since he got back... probably being troublesome. As usual.

The pink haired girl wasn't bored, after running around all day she loved the feeling of relief laying here gave her. It's not like she ALWAYS looked at the clouds for shapes, she'd just been trying to start conversation, but he was so annoying! "I wonder if it's going to rain? The clouds look a little darker today."

She hoped it wouldn't, she didn't like getting wet.

"I wonder if it's going to rain? The clouds look a little darker today."

Shikamaru looked up at the darker clouds starting to roll in. "Nah... it won't rain... there too high up." He commented as he stood up shoving his hands in his pocket. Maybe if he was quick he could go home and take a nap before anything unexpected happened.

She tried to keep up her good mood but his shifting around was distracting, and his shifting around wasn't just moving over-no he'd either sit down, or walk off, or stand up, sit back down...

Jeez!

"Just leave or stay."

She covered her face with her arms befre a headache could come on, trying to get back in the calm mood. What the hell was she thinking trying to talk to him normaly? They had NOTHING in common.

Naruto just happened to be walking by. It was coincidence, really. He'd not been looking for Sakura or anything like that.

Really.

"Ohh? Izzat you, Sakura-chan? Shikamaru?"

He called loudly from a short distance away but ran over to them quickly enough, waving wildly.

"Just leave or stay."

"I'm leaving." He said but before he could he heard that annoying loud voice ring through the air along with the dark rain clouds.

"Ohh? Izzat you, Sakura-chan? Shikamaru?"

"Mendoukse..." He muttered quickly under his breath as he tried to walk off. "Nope, only some guy that looks like Shikamaru." He said as he hurried off trying to get away as quickly as possible a sweatdrop going down the side of his face. So NOT in the mood to talk to Naruto right now. He just wanted a nice day... of quiet, relaxation and a small cat nap. Not a giant sized blonde and pink combination of a migrane.

"Well, not-Shikamaru, you should stick around and introduce yourself." Naruto grinned, grabbing hold of his arm as he ran over and tugging him back.

He'd not seen Shikamaru in a while, so his 'identical twin' would have to be a good substitute.
