Naruto Pov
The war was over, I became hokage and I have two beautiful children. What more could I ask for? The only problem was that Hinata wasn't the person I loved. Don't get me wrong, she's a wonderful person but I don't love her like she deserves. Every moment I spend with her is almost painful. As I sit in my chair, in my office, I contemplate my relationship. Not realizing I spaced out, a soft but rough hand shook me some. My eyes blinked rapidly and Shikamaru came into my vision. My hand went behind my head and a smile on my lips.
"Sorry Shika, I zoned out. What were you saying?" My blue eyes stared into his dark ones. All he had to do was look at me and my heart skipped a beat. Shikamaru raised an eyebrow at me as he exclaimed. "You need to sign these reports. Are you feeling okay Naruto?" He had concerned written on his face.
I nodded as my eyes shifted focus down to the papers infront of me. "I'm fine. I promise." Time gets away from both of them sometimes. It became very late as the sun had went down hours ago. Shikamaru yawned and leaned against the wall. "Naru, go get some sleep. We can finish in the morning" But could I actually sleep without Shika invading my dreams? I cleared my throat and leaned back into my chair. "Ahh, it's fine. You go ahead and head home to Temari. I'll just finish up and crash on the couch." I didn't realize it at first but Shikamaru almost tensed up hearing Temaris name.
Shikamaru Pov
Naruto had seemed off today. I couldn't put my finger on it. As the day passed, it seemed like they weren't puting a dent into the work. I had walked over leaning against the wall, yawning. When Temari was mentioned, my body couldn't help but tense up. Things weren't going well. She wanted to leave here and go back to Suna. I refused; I couldn't leave Naruto like that-- I mean, I couldn't leave the village and my friends like that. Quicky changing my thoughts I focused on naruto. He was adorable, goofy, and definitely the leafs number one knuckle head. All the things that made me love him. Could I tell him that I love him? No, definitely not. Do I wish that him and I could be together? Yes, more than anything. A sigh came from my lips. "Temari and I aren't on the best terms right now. She wants me to leave here and live in Suna. But I won't leave here." My dark brown eyes looked over to see naruto's beautiful blue eyes staring back at me. Naruto's voice was soft and reserved "Don't leave.. I can't do this without you." My heart felt.. conflicted. I had to force myself not to run over and hug him. What am I going to do? This is such a drag.
***I know it's not super long or super good. But I wanted to try my hand at writing fanfiction. Hope people like it! Ideas are welcomed!***
