I couldn't take my eyes off of him from across the conference room. The meeting had to have been going on for hours at this point. I tried to pay attention but I would quickly get lost in thought and my eyes would drift back to Shikamaru. Every time his brown eyes locked with mine.

I would give him a smirk before rolling my eyes and looking away. But time after time my focus would fall back to him.

He didn't say much in the meeting but when Kakashi asked for his advice he always delivered with expertise. It was the only time I truly listened to what we were here to discuss. I was intrigued how he was able to give sophisticated answers when I knew his attention had been on me moments prior.

The meeting continued to drag on until finally my father dismissed the party from the leaf. My eyes tracked Shikamaru as he left the room. He didn't bother giving me one last glance before he left.

I tried to shift my focus back to my father. He wanted to debrief with his trusted constituents. I became fidgety now that I no longer had the distraction of Shikamaru.

I wondered if they were already returning to the leaf or if they would be staying tonight. It was already late in the day and it was a long journey back. I would think they would stay but I couldn't be certain.

I was never very smart. Hence why my father never once asked for my opinion. He knew I was irrational and wore my heart of my sleeve. I was lucky my father was the Raikage and could do damage control anytime my emotions got the best of me and I messed up. I loved to live recklessly. And I could always rely on my father anytime I made a dumb mistake.

My newest mistake was my infatuation with Shikamaru. If my father ever found out he would consider it a dishonor. That I craved someone not from Kumogakure. He knew he lost the battle of keeping me pure and innocent a long time ago. But he would be damn sure that I would never find myself with a man from outside the village.

Our meeting finally adjourned for the night. I quickly rushed out of the room before I could be stopped.

I rushed down the halls of the tower with no true destination in mind. I just knew I needed to get away from all the politics and get some air.

Before I could round another corner a hand grabbed my elbow and pulled me behind a closed door. My heart skipped a beat.

I faced my abductor in the dark room. It was small and I assumed we were in a supply closet. I quickly did a recon of where I was in the tower.

"What are you doing?" I giggled with a giant smirk on my face.

"I had to see you." Shikamaru spoke in a hushed tone.

"You know we shouldn't be doing this." My voice was covered in excitement.

"I know but I cannot think when I'm around you." Shikamaru closed the gap between us so we were chest to chest.

"Then don't think. Just feel." I barely got the words out before my mouth was on his. Shikamaru let go of the grip on my elbow so I could wrap my arms around his neck. His arms snaked around my waist.

We fumbled around each others bodies as we made out in the closet. Moving slightly to the wall to give our bodies some support. Once my back hit the wall Shikamaru kissed down my neck. I moved my hand from his neck. As I brought it down to massage his groin my elbow hit a broom. It made a loud clash as it hit to floor. Shikamaru went stiff against me but I couldn't help from laughing.

Shika sent me a glare for being so loud. "Let's get out of here." I smiled at him. I gave him a kiss on the cheek as I started peeling my body away from his.
