Shikamarus pov

Truth be told I've always been numb to the consept of love. Even when I was a child I never loved anyone. Other said they loved me but their love was sick, twisted and left a bitter taste in my mouth. It was never love.

I never truly felt or understood love. That is until I met him.

"welcome home shikamaru-San!" neji said bowing respectively.

Neji hyuga. He's only sixteen years old and yet he's makes me feel all bubbly and sweet whenever I look at him. Yep being with him is what love truly feels like.

"thank you sweetheart" I pulled him into a hug and kissed him all over.

"hehe that tickles" he giggled "anyway I know that you been working really hard for me so I made you dinner"

"oh neji that's so sweet of you" I hung up my coat with a smile.

"oh its nothing. I want to learn to be a good house husband to you someday" he smiled at me.

"aren't you thinking a little too far ahead darling" I chuckled.

"nope! I'm definitely going to marry you when I get older" he said determinedly while hugging my waist.

I smiled blissfully and petted his head "that makes me very happy neji"

"I'm glad" he giggled "I'll go get your dinner ready" he ran off to the kitchen. He's so sweet I don't know my heart can handle it!

Most people wouldn't approve of of out relationship and say I'm taking advantage of neji but nejis only two years away from becoming an adult and I'd never force him to do any adult things with me.

I WOULD NEVER HURT NEJI THE WAY THEY HURT ME!

I took a seat at the table. Neji placed my food in front of me.

"there you go my beloved" he chirped.

"this looks delicious darling" I said stoking his cheek. He giggled happily and took a seat opposite me.

"so how was school darling?" I asked.

"school was great! I made some friends"

"really?" my eyes widened. Nejis been struggling to make friends for quite some time now "tell me about them"

"Well one of them is called rock Lee. He has no ninjitsu or genjitsu but he's working really hard to be a ninja. Then there's tenten. She doesn't take any nonsense and I love her for it! We've grown so close that our Sensais talking about making us a team once we graduate" he looked so happy while talking about them.

"that's wonderful neji. I'm so glad you're making friends"

"what was your team like shikamaru?" he asked.

"YOUR ALWAYS RUNNING OFF WITH YOUR FRIENDS SHIKAMARU. WHAT ABOUT ME YOUR MOTHER WHO RAISED YOU ON HER OWN. WHY DO YOU NEVER WANT TO BE AROUND ME!"

"Umm shikamaru" neji waved his hand in front of my face looking worried.

I got lost in my own thoughts again. Damnit. I smiled reassuringly at him "my teammates were ino and Choji. They were very dear friends of mine and still are to this day"

"oh wow. I'd love to meet them one day"

"you can't!" I slammed my fists on the table making neji jump.

"I'm sorry" neji said with tears in his eyes.

"no darling you don't need to apologise" I ran over to him and pulled him into a hug "I shouldn't have yelled at you. I'm just afraid of people not accepting us and even taking you away from me"

"i don't want that to happen" neji whimpered "I promise I'll keep our relationship a secret"

"good boy" I said kissing his forehead "it's getting late now love. Let's go to bed"

"ok" he took my hand and we walked to the bedroom together. We got changed into our pyjamas and snuggled down together.

I truly am happiest when I'm with him.
