Shikamaru leaned back against the bench and looked up the clouds. This whole situation was so troublesome and he was way to lazy to want to actually put in the effort to deal with it, but like all things in life, he was forced to deal with something he wished he could just ignore. Neji sat next to him, stiff as a board. Shika knew that Neji was aware of the situation, he could tell by those eyes. They could see just about anything and this was no different.

“Neji I don’t know how to say this to make it any easier, but you know me, I’m not going to drag this out longer than I have to. I just hope one day you can forgive me.” Neji looked over to Shikamaru and nodded slightly.

“I won’t lie to you Shikamaru, I’m hurt that you would dump me so quickly, and while I understand it, I still don’t like it. What is it that Chouji has that made you give up on us so quickly?” Shikamaru sighed and slouched over so he was leaning on his knees. There was a long silence as Shikamaru tried to put in words all the emotions running through his body when he thought of Chouji.

“Did you ever really have a best friend Neji? Someone you could tell anything to? Someone who did everything in his power to make you happy?” Neji frowned deeply as Shikamaru smiled to himself.

“I thought I did.” Shikamaru frowned and looked across the field.

“Damn it Neji it’s not as if I did this just to fuck with you ok? I did love you, I still do but..It’s complicated.” Neji looked at his ex and snorted.

“Well I believe we are both considered geniuses, so please explain your complicated thoughts to me, I’m sure I’ll understand.” Shikamaru bit the inside of his lip, he had known it would be difficult explaining this to the Hyuuga, hell he was the one who started the whole relationship. Now Neji was acting like this, like he was royalty and everyone else needed to lick the dirt from his shoes.

“It’s not as if I planned this Neji, I never wanted to hurt you, but when I heard him say those things...He was willing to let me go, to let me be with you and he wouldn’t say a word to discourage it. He’s been my best friend since we were little and everything he’s ever said or done has been to make me happy. To have someone like that admit that they love you...He’s just amazing.” Neji didn’t look very happy with the explanation he was given but he also didn’t interrupt. “Chouji is the sweetest person I’ve ever met, and Neji...I am sorry, I never wanted to hurt you but I couldn’t let Chouji suffer, not when I realized just how much I loved him in return.” The white eyed boy sighed deeply as he looked at the dreamy smile on Shikamaru’s lips.
He glared slightly, he had never been hurt so bad and he had no idea how to vent his anger and the hurt that churned in him. He stood up and moved to stand in front of Shikamaru.

“What am I supposed to do Shikamaru? How am I supposed to deal with you leaving me for ~Chouji~? I can’t take the fact that someone like him could be so much stronger then...” Shikamaru blinked as Neji’s eyes widened. He couldn’t believe he almost said that out loud. What would people think if Neji was to admit not only was someone stronger than him in someway but that Neji noticed his own weakness. Shikamaru stood up and slowly as to not scare the other ninja, he wrapped his arms around Neji and pulled him close.

“You’ll find someone Neji, I’m sorry it can’t be me, but you’ll find someone.” Neji felt his heart twist and before he knew what was happening, he had his arms around Shikamaru and his face buried in his shoulder as he began to mumble softly.

“I am glad for you Shika I really am, Chouji has loved you for so long and he’ll make you happy, I just don’t want to be left alone. I hate being like this, I can’t be emotional with anyone and the people I should love most I push away...” Shikamaru pet Neji’s hair as the other whispered into his shirt. This was probably the only time anyone would ever see the proud man break down like this. Shikamaru sighed mentally, he really didn’t want to deal with this now. He may love Neji it didn’t mean he really wanted his snot all over his jacket. Not that Neji was crying, he would never ever allow that in public. He felt Neji let go and step away, Shika smiled slightly and pat Neji’s shoulder.

“C’mon, I’ll walk you home.” Even though he thought it troublesome and all he wanted to do was get back to Chouji, he knew he owed at least this much to the other man. They both began to walk to Neji’s house when the Hyuuga looked over to Shikamaru and smiled just slightly.

“I am happy for you, I hope you know that.” Shikamaru smiled back slightly and they walked in silence. For once Neji knew he did the right thing and everything would be ok, of course he did have a certain cousin to thank when he got home.

Chouji waited by the gates of the village, he had gotten word that Lee was coming back early and that the Kazekage would be with him. He figured he’d wait for Lee to get his mind off of Shikamaru talking to Neji. Not that it helped much, his brain kept betraying him and kept flashing pictures of the other two shinobi kissing. Chouji knew Shikamaru wouldn’t do that to him but the doubt still lingered. He sighed as he turned back toward the village. It had been the most amazing thing in his entire existence to finally taste Shikamaru’s skin. To be able to touch him and have the other man return his feelings. But it seemed to be a dream, something that was made up and in a flash he’d wake in his bed alone and depressed once again while Shika skipped off to be alone with Neji.

He had to stop thinking, he had to stop telling himself that it was all fake, that he really did suck Shikamaru off in the kitchen. Now that was an interesting thought as the chubby man blushed brightly. Oh he must be a sight, blushing to nothing but the wind. It was quite embarrassing.

“Chouji!” Chouji turned and smiled widely as a green and orange streak ran at him and almost tackled him with a hug. Chouji laughed as Lee clung onto him for a minute. The taijutsu master jumped off and turned around, his smile so bright it almost hurt to look at him.

“Kazekage-sama!” Chouji looked over the black haired boys head and couldn’t help but smirk as a familiar red head made his way into town. His white robe a stark contrast to that wild hair and bright eyes, apparently he hadn’t felt like wearing the formal Kazekage head-wear. Chouji bowed slightly and Gaara nodded. It was only polite, after all Suna was a great allie to Konoha. “How have things been around here? I’ve really missed being home.” Gaara looked slightly offended but didn’t say anything, Lee noticed the look and frowned. “Oh Gaara you know I loved being with you!” Chouji had to hold back from bursting into laughter as Gaara, The Kazekage of Suna actually blushed slightly as Lee threw an arm around the shorter man. Chouji decided to take save the sand-nin more embarrassment as he spoke up.

“Things have been busy around here, I talked with Shikamaru.” Lee was suddenly serious as he looked at the man who had become such a good friend.

“What happened?” Chouji sighed and shrugged, he felt his face flush brightly.

“Well see he actually heard what I said to you when you came over that day after Ino, he was outside the apartment. Long story short, he’s trying to break it gently to Neji as we speak.” Lee stared at him for a moment then suddenly rushed to hug his friend again.

“I’m so happy for you! You’ve wanted this for so long.” Chouji nodded and smiled though it did not reach his eyes, Lee was gucik to notice. “Chouji?” Chouji smiled sadly.

“It’s just hard knowing that Shika has to say goodbye to someone he loved because of me.” Lee frowned and was about to say something when to both boys surprise Gaara spoke up.

“Why would you feel bad because something is finally working in your favor?” Chouji looked at the sand-nin curiously. “I don’t understand how you could feel bad for someone who never liked you.” Chouji frowned as Gaara turned to walk into the village. “I’ve learned a few things during my life and one is to not disregard the people who really care for you, and in return you should hold them close to your own heart. If you are in love and finally have a chance to be happy, then be selfish for a while, everyone is at one time or other.” Gaara began to walk away and Lee looked panicked suddenly, not sure whether he should stay or follow the shorter man. Chouji smiled genuinely and nodded.

“Go ahead, I’ll talk to you later, I have to meet up with Shika soon anyway.” Lee smiled and waved as he ran after Gaara, calling his name. Chouji couldn’t help but smile. Maybe he could be a little selfish for once, it wasn’t like Shikamaru was against the idea obviously.

Chouji couldn’t help but smirk as he nodded and began to walk into the village. He had some plans for Shikamaru tonight and if things went his way, Shikamaru would never even dream of looking at another guy again.
