Shikamarus pov
I was making dinner when neji burst through the door.
"welcome home love" I smiled at him.
"shikamaru look at this" he opened up the letter in his hand "headmaster Iruka has decided to allow us all to spend a week at camp to help prepare us for life as a shinobi. This could greatly improve our fighting and teamwork skills" his smile fell once he saw my grave face "of course I don't have to go"
"no baby you go on if you want to" I turned away from the food and pulled him into a hug.
"mmm I don't want to leave you alone though" he mumbled into my chest.
"I won't be alone sweetheart I'll have ino, choji, naruto and everyone else by my side" I said stroking his hair. I then cupped his cheeks and looked him straight in his large eyes "you shouldn't let anyone stop you from pursuing your dreams neji. Now even your loved ones"
"ok just promise me that you'll be alright if I go" neji said firmly. I chuckled at how serious he was being. Who's supposed to be the adult here?
"shikamaru!"
"alright alright baby I promise I'll be fine" I said tenderly kissing his forehead.
"ok then" neji was about to snuggle back into my chest when the fire alarm went off. We looked over at our food to see that it was burnt to a crisp.
"shikamaru!" neji placed his hands on his hips with a disappointed mother look.
"haha how do you feel about takeaway babe" I chuckled awkwardly.
"fine" neji rolled his eyes with a fond smile before running off. As he was leaving he said "you better be able to cook for yourself while I'm gone shikamaru. I won't have you living off takeaways for a whole week!"
"yeah I hear you kid" I chuckled lightly. Man I'm going to miss having him around.
