May or may not be a destiny ~Neji Fanfiction~

ĐĘŠŤĮŃŸ VII

"Ne~ Shikadai-kun~" (Y/n) hummed softly as she put ointment in the hand print on her nephew's cheek after receiving a slap from Temari,"Why would you even skip classes knowing how hot headed your mom is?"

That day,as soon as they return back to Konoha to interrogate the rouge as Shikamaru and Neji updated Naruto,Shino immediately showed up in front of the Nara household door,telling Temari that her son,Shikadai,ditched school with a doctored absence excuse letter.

The teen only huffed as he turned away from her aunt,pink hues tinting his cheeks out of embarrassment for being scolded, and annoyed at Mitsuki for creating such lame excuse letter.

(Y/n) chuckled as she leaned and whispered in his ear,"Next time you guys plan on ditching classes,you can always ask for my help." She then winked at him who stared at her aunt in disbelief,not expecting his own aunt to urge him to errant.

Before the pineapple haired kid could even respond to her aunt's naughty way of supporting,the temperature room dropped below negative degrees, immediately sending shivers to the aunt-nephew tandem.

"What was that?" came Temari's chilling voice. Colors drained from their faces as they tried their best to look at the blonde.

They shrieked as they were greeted by a glare,horror was all over their face as (Y/n) grabbed her nephew in the back of his colar and sprinted away from the Nara compound.

Temari's voice shook the household as she yelled her son's and cousin's name,demanding them to return immediately.

"What a drag." Shikadai sighed,folding his arms behind his head as he and his aunt walk through the streets of Konoha.

(Y/n) happily count the money on her hands,grinning like a maniac."Ne my dear nephew,you should spend more time with your nee-chan in the future." She patted his shoulder.

You see,she dragged her nephew in one of Konoha's best gambling house,after many persuasion and pleading,they used the Nara's shadow manipulation jutsu to,let's say, win some dice bet.

"Troublesome woman." He murmured under his breath as he ignor her aunt,looking above him and watching couple of sun rays peaking behind the clouds,.I wonder if Mom finally calmed down,it's going pretty late.

"Yosh! Where do you want to eat before heading home Shika?" the adult beside him smiled and looked at her nephew,calling him his dad's nickname.

"Anywhere is fine." He answered as his own tummy began to make noises.As if on cue,blood rushed to his cheeks,embarrassment taking over his system,What a drag, he thought.
(Y/n) giggled as she patted his head.

They walked through the busy streets of Konoha towards a barbeque restaurant,not expecting to bump into someone they knew.

"Shikadai! (Y/n)! " Their attention snapped in the direction of the voice they heard their names being called.In one of the tables,Shikamaru waved his hands towards them.

"What are you guys doing here?" As soon as they approached the table,(Y/n) noticed a familiar brunette infront of her cousin-in-law.

Neji smiled at her,"Grabbing a bite," He answered as he moved to make a room for (Y/n)."And discussing our ongoing mission."

Shikadai is already sitted beside his father so,having no choice,she clicked her tongue as she took her sit beside him.Why am I nervous now?! She thought as she begged her heart to calm down,glancing at the person beside her,wondering if he can hear her heartbeat.
