Shikimaru's p.o.v
I finally found Sakura talking to Ino in the flower shop. They paused in their conversation to look at me.
grabbing Sakura's arm: "You need to get to the hospital now!"
Sakura narrowed her eyes and took off, following behind me: "What's the situation?"
: "It's Kelea! Some how she got a stab like wound on her side without every leaving the bed and there's a unidentified poison in her system. I think the poison in from Sasori."
Sakura asked confused: "That's impossible. Why would you even think that could happen?"
i turned, grabbing her shoulders making us stop: "please, just trust me on this one. I don't know how and i can't explain it, but i know the posion is sasori's and something is going on with this genjustu she under."
Sakura stared at me for a few moments before nodding. We started off again running even faster than we were before.
Your p.o.v
So many more occasions happened one after the other. Each time something would happen and i couldn't feel a thing. Whether it was a light kiss on the cheek to being run through with a kanta. It didn't matter, i still couldn't feel anything and it was driving me nuts.
When my eyes opened, i was faced with the blinding light of a hospital room. I raised my hand up to sheild my eyes, but something caught my hand. Glancing over i saw it was Shikamaru, he had taken a hold of my hand and was holding it tight. His eyes were no longer tired, his face no longer held off the impression of boredom, but now a sense of worry.
Shikamaru: "You're awake! I'm so glad!!"
That didn't sound like shikamaru to me and i only started at him my mouth slightly ajar wondering what in the wold was going to happen next. My question was answered soon after when he leaned close and kissed me.
I lost it , shutting my eyes i shoved him away and screamed "No more! Make it stop! This has to be a genjustu!!"
Shikamaru's p.o.v
A few hours after Sakura gave Kelea the antidote, Kelea started to stir in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes, blinking trying to adjust to the light, but couldn't seem to focus them. Her arm started to raise up and sort of paused there as if reaching for something. I took her hand in mine, holding tightly. She was slightly shaking.
: "Kelea, you're finally awake. troublesome woman." i leaned forward to embrace her.
Her eyes suddenly widened and she screamed "No! No more! Make it stop! This has to be a genjustu!!"
Jumping out of the bed, she pushed me away and bolted out of the room. I just made it out of the doorway to see her form disappear from a hallway window.
'what a drag...'
Your p.o.v
I ran and ran and ran not really knowing where i was going, but i kept running. I eventually ended up at Shikamaru's favorite cloud watching spot. I collapsed on the ground,hugging my knees and cried.
No sooner than i did i could hear Shikamaru sigh as he sat down next to me.
Shikamaru "You know you really are a troublesome woman."
I sat up rubbing eyes: "I know this will sound strange, but i'm just so tired of it. How do i make it stop?"
Shikamaru looked at me: "Make what stop?"
: "Whatever's going on. Every time i open my eyes i'm somewhere else with you and i'm either taking a hit for you or you're kissing me and i can't feel a thing and it's driving me crazy and...'
Shikamru interrupted my rant by pulling me into a strong embrace and gently putting his lips on mine. When he pulled away: "Did you feel that?"
I was stunned: "Ye.yes."
Shikamaru: "You've been under a genjustu for some time, but i promise you this is real."
: "How can i know for sure?"
Shikamaru: " If in all of those other situations you couldn't feel a thing. Then this should be all the proof you need."
He leaned down and tenderly kissed me: "I'm sorry i didn't realize this sooner. It shouldn't have taken me this long to tell you."
Is he really? Could it be happening?: "Tell me what?"
Shikamaru blushed a little: "That i love you. Even though you are such a drag."
i smiled: "I can't be that much of a drag if you love me."
Shikamaru: "And what about you?....What..do you fell towards me?"
giggleing: "I thought you would have been smart enough to see that i love you too. Even though you are such a drag."
Shikamaru: "Hey, that's my line....troublesome woman."
: "But i'm your troublesome woman."
Shikamaru laid down pulling me with him: "You're right."
We lay there, my head on his chest as we watched the clouds, occasionally saying what a certain cloud looked like.
