Week Days: A Shikamaru Nara Series: Monday

Week Days: A Shikamaru Nara Series: Tuesday

Tuesdays had become somewhat special over the last couple of weeks. Don’t ask me why, I could never tell you but Shikamaru had grown a little bit of habit. I looked over at the clock on the night stand.

10:32PM

I should be asleep, but unfortunately Shikamaru’s Tuesday habit had left me pinned on the couch. I put the book i had been reading for the last 3 hours down and rubbed my eyes. I soft snoring broke the silence and i could feel a vein pop out from my forehead. Ah yes it was alright for some. The reason why i couldn’t move and go to bed was because someone had already made a bed out of me. Shikamaru Nara had snuck into my flat like he does every Tuesday and fallen asleep on me while i was reading.

AND HE WAS TOO HEAVY TO BLOODY MOVE!!

I could feel him twitch. He had his head laying on my stomach and one arm tightly wrapped around my middle. This had been happening for a while now, his Chuunin work had been keeping him out of the village and I would go days without seeing him. But every Tuesday he would magically appear in my apartment and fall asleep on me. It was really weird especially when he did it in places like the kitchen. Once it had been me standing in the hallway and he snuck up behind me and pretty much just flopped on me. Another time i was lying on the living room carpet and he suddenly just put his head on the small of my back and snoozed for about 2 hours.

Weird as they were, those were the type of things i could handle but this was just irritating. I reached over and shook his shoulder.

“shikamaru...Shikamaru!....SHIKAMARU WAKE UP!!!”

I brought my fist down hard on his head. He shot up and yelped holding his hands to his head. I pushed myself up into a better sitting position. He glared at me and rubbed his head.

“god damn it troublesome woman!! Why the hell did you do that!?”

I shoved him onto his back and leaned over him putting one leg on each side of him.

“I’ll tell you why! Every Tuesday for the last 5 weeks you’ve snuck into my apartment and fallen asleep on me! But this is ridiculous! I should be asleep in my bed getting rest so i can work tomorrow! Not playing a living pillow for you!”

By this point i was screaming at him and had my finger close to his face pointing at him. His eyes narrowed and he slapped my hand away. He shoved his face a few inches away from mine and stared at me tiredly. It was a staring competition for a few minutes but he sighed and broke eye contact.

“Troublesome bitch, you should have just said.”

He quickly bent foreword and pulled me onto his shoulder. He stood up and yawned covering his mouth with his free hand. I started squirming in his grip.

“You asshole Shikamaru! Put me down! And did you just call me a bitch? Where are you going?!”

He had started walking and the motion was making his shoulder painfully dig into my stomach. After a few minutes he threw me onto something soft which i soon realised was my bed and started shoving me towards the pillows. He took off his Chuunin vest and made a hand seal. I felt my hands being pulled together and shoved up towards the bed board. He pulled back the covers and climbed over me. I could feel myself blushing. He was lazy sure but seriously what else could you think in this situation!? He wrapped one arm around my middle and rested his head on my stomach.

“Shi-Shikamaru?! What are you doing?!”

He used his free arm to pull the covers back over us and pressed his cheek into my stomach.

“Tch. Troublesome woman. You just said you wanted to go to bed. So ive solved both our problems. Now shut up and sleep before i seriously consider gagging you. I have to work tomorrow as well.”

I laid there shocked as i felt his Jutsu wear off as he fell asleep. I could feel the anger necessary to scream at him fade away as how tired i really was finally hit me. I put my head back onto a pillow and closed my eyes.

I would scream and possibly throw stuff at him tomorrow.

This was a typical Tuesday night for us. I rested a hand on his head and finally drifted into unconsciousness. This was a habit that would probably stick for the rest of the time me and Shikamaru were together. If i didn’t end up killing him first.
