Obsessively. (Shikamaru Fanfic)

one.

KIRA'S POV.

It had been a couple of days since I had last eaten and even then the food I did manage to eat was so little. My stomach felt like it was caving in on it's self as it rumbled with hunger. I was in a new village, one I had stumbled upon while lost in the woods.

I had passed through the gates blending in with the people, who were out enjoying the day. The sun was blasting down relentlessly on my dehydrated being. My mouth would've salivated, if there was any liquid to do so, as the smells of foods wafted out of the restaurants I passed. I pushed on not knowing where to go stopping outside a shop that had a wonderful smell seeping  from behind the curtains.

I collapsed on the bench outside, feeling exhausted. I could hear a noisy guy inside talking about having his 9th bowl of ramen and sighed in jealousy. If I could only taste one noodle.

My eyes shut and only opened when I felt something against my neck. I weakly jolted away from the sensation only to hear a sigh of relief.

"Choji, get Iruka sensei." The boy who was talking seemed about my age and his hair was in a spiky pony tail. His dark eyes assessed me as I looked up at him.

"Hey... Do you understand me?" I nodded still looking at him with caution.

"When was the last time you ate?" Before I could answer a tall man with a scar across his nose came out from the restaurant. He took one look at me and was instantly on my level.

"Shikamaru, who is this?" The spiky headed guy just shrugged while the older man's face took on a look of recognition as he looked at me. Seeming to shake off his shock, he grabbed the cup that Choji brought handing it to Shikamaru. I felt a bit weary but he held it in front of my lips so I could sip.

"Drink." I sent him a look of gratitude and leaned forward weakly. I gulped the water down fast, nearly choking in the process.

"We should take her to the hospital. She's dehydrated and starved." Iruka grabbed the glass away instructing for Choji to bring another one. After gulping down the second cup I smiled at the kind people in front of me.

"Thank you." Their shocked face was the last thing I saw before I felt my body fall slowly towards the ground.

......

I woke up in a curtained off room so I was presuming I was in a hospital. I had IVs stuck in me, most likely helping with the dehydration. Dressed in a robe instead of the clothes I had on previously i felt panic run through me. When did I get here? As if knowing I was awake, a curtain pulled back and I met the eyes of a big busted lady. She was an attractive woman who radiated power and leadership.

"Good afternoon." I nodded shyly before feeling a little bit comfortable when I saw Shikamaru and Iruka walk out from behind the curtain.

"What is your name?" I looked at the beautiful lady concentrating really hard before letting out a massive sigh
"I don't know.." they all seemed a little shocked by my answer. She nodded.

"For now we can call you....."

"Kira.... What? It suits her..." Shikamaru blurted out going red in the face as everyone looked at him. Kira? I liked that name.

I saw the lady nod and a small smile lit my face. After I'd waken up in that broken, I assumed was an abandoned hideout, I couldn't recall who I was. I didn't know where I had come from or if I even had family and I explained that to the lady. They all seemed to accept my story and nodded.

"I just want to know one more thing." I nodded for her to continue.

"How did you get into the village?" I frowned, like everyone else?

"The gate?"

"Yes, I get that, but how?"

"I was walking through the woods and I saw the gate. I just walked through." Iruka and the lady exchanged a look before they nodded.

"Okay. I will bring you some food in a bit. Shikamaru stay with 'Kira' until someone comes and takes over." He nodded.

"Yes, Tsunade-sama" Tsunade. The name seemed familiar some how but I shook off the feeling. She turned around a gust of wind leaving with her. Iruka-sensei smiled at me before nodding and following the lady out.
Shikamaru sat down in a chair sighing. He leaned back hands shoved behind his head and closed his eyes. I couldn't help but stare, his face was actually pretty beautiful.

"Y'know it's rude to stare" his voice shocked me and I found myself feeling shy as I looked away.

"Sorry.." it went back to being quiet and some time had passed when a masked guy entered the room. The mask on the person was making me feel a bit dizzy. Why did he have his face covered? Was he going to hurt me?

"Tsunade-sama sent me to watch her." I pulled the blankets closer to me and heard a massive sigh. I looked at Shikamaru who already had his eyes on me.

"How troublesome....." He whispered leaning back into his chair.

"I'll stay and watch her." Relief flooded me as the words left his mouth and the masked man disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

My breathing settled down after awhile and I sat up slowly ignoring the aching feeling that was radiating around my body.

"You should really rest." His eyes were shut but I had a feeling he could still see me. I nodded laying back down actually feeling a little sleepy.

"Yo-you won't leave right?" I whispered avoiding eye contact. I could feel his eyes on me and it took a few minutes before answered.

"I won't leave......Go to sleep Kira" I felt a little better hearing his confirmation. I let my eyes close and let sleep take me back into the unconcious world.

(TBH I don't even know what the hell that was.)
