we all sat on the sofa. i as on the right, Temari in the middle and Naruto to the other side of her. she sat with one plate of pancakes piled for all three of us. 

i was raging, and furious with naruto. inviting himself in like that, giving temari a tshirt to sleep in?! thats my job. whats he tryna do?

what am i tryna do? shes not even my girl!

i went to grab a pancake and i was interupted from another hand grabbing a pankcake at the same time. maybe me and Temari really ARE made for each other

As my eyes gazed away from the pancakes, I followed the rather large hand with my eyes.
To only realise it was narutos hand .

We both pulled away in disgust!

"WHAT THE HELL SHIKAMARU!" naruto screamed as he jumped back.

"NARUTO, THAT WAS TOATALLY YOU!" I retalliated.

"HOW! MY HANDS WHERE UNDER YOURS!"

".... FUCK YOU!" i was stuck for a reply, 200 IQ, i can plan over 100 outcomes for my battles but i can't come up with a fucking comeback?!

I bet Temari thought that was really lame. She probably thinks really low of me right now.

When i turned to see Temari, she acctually just had her hand on her head, looking at the wasted pancakes that where knocked on the floor.

"oh shit, Temari I'm sorry." I said to her, realising that was either only me or Naruto who knocked them.

"Oh no, its fine it wasn't your fault." she replied quite bluntly.

i leaned down and started to pick up the wasted food of the floor to put in the bin, i felt kind of bad because i know she didn't have that much budget available to streach. this was going to be a tight trip for her and i've just wasted some of that.

"SHIKAMARU, DON'T JUST STOP ARGUING WITH ME!" Naruto continued.

"Naruto, don't you see? There are other things to priorities than our Argument, if you don't mind i would rather continue this another time." 

Naruto didn't reply. he just stood there staring at me. he then walked out the door, making sure he slammed it.

The ringing of the slammed door lingered for a short while and it was then followed by nothing but a thick silence.

"Temari i am really sorry" i said, looking slowly from the ground until i met her face.

she didn't say anything, she didn't even look up from where she was looking.

"Temari?" i asked, placing my two forefingers under her chin, guiding her face to look at mine. "Are you okay?" i asked

"uh..yeah..." she replied, with no expression nor emotion.

"... no... you're not are you..." I wasn't allowing her to treat me like just another person. i want to mean something to her.

she pierced her lips together and hung her head down, shaking my fingers away from her. her hands tensed on the plate she was holding.

"...no... i'm not okay... everything is wrong... everything." she said, allowing a tear to roll down her face.

Temari was so broken. I didn't know what to do. i've never seen her like this before. I want to know why shes so upset but to be honest i have never been an empathetic person and i don't know how to deal with these things.

and now i feel selfish. i'm sure Temari does not know how to deal with herself right now, i mean shes having a breakdown infront of me.

"Temari, is it the apartment?" i asked and she stay silent.
