Shikamaru Nara X Reader || Strategies, Puzzles and... You

You've been Shikamaru Nara's best friend since the start of the Academy-long before either of you became ninjas. You know him better than anyone: lazy, sarcastic, and always trying to avoid hassle. But for some reason, you've always stuck around, helping him out of situations and dragging him into things he'd rather not deal with. Of course, being Sasuke Uchiha's twin sister hasn't made your life any easier-especially when Shikamaru's got to handle your brother's... overprotectiveness.

Despite his usual indifference, Shikamaru has always been there for you, even if it means reluctantly dealing with all the chaos that follows you around. But lately, things seem... different. Could it be that the lazy strategist might actually care more than he lets on? Or is he just too tired to deal with your antics?
