When the get out of class was over, Shikamaru suddenly pulled his hand back.

I just realized it, I held his hand for a long time without moving: "Ah, sorry, I forgot...!"

"It's okay. It's okay."

"Is Shikamaru feeling better now? Can I rub it for you again?"

“No need…” He didn’t look at me and muttered quietly, “It’s time to finish class and there are too many people around.”

I don’t quite understand the logic behind this: “If there are too many people around, I can’t get a massage?”

But Shikamaru said "hmm", since he said so, it should be correct.

I nodded: "I understand."

I pulled my hand back and prepared to look over my notes from the beginning, trying to make up for the classes I had missed.

I flipped forward to the first page where Shikamaru took notes for me, and laughed at the completely different handwriting on the left and right sides.

"What's wrong?" Shikamaru asked me, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I was just thinking that my handwriting and Shikamaru's are so different."

"Isn't that natural?"

"But the different handwritings are in the same notebook. I will keep this notebook well in the future because it is the most special notebook in the world!"

Shikamaru couldn't help laughing. He held his cheek and smiled at me: "Are you stupid?"

"By the way, I have a question I want to ask Shikamaru."

"what?"

"If a person is lying in a quilt, how can one hide a person in the quilt without being seen?"

"Huh? What's the problem?"

"It just suddenly occurred to me, and I'm very concerned about it. Think about it, if the person lying down cooperates and bends his legs, then wouldn't there be a certain amount of space in the quilt for him to fit in? I think this space can definitely be used, but hiding in it horizontally won't be able to accommodate the weight of a person, which is too unacceptable! I think Shikamaru will definitely be able to come up with a better way!"

Shikamaru just thought about it for a moment and said, "If horizontally doesn't work, how about vertically?"

I was impressed by the speed with which he came to the conclusion, but the answer left me with many questions.

"Vertical? Wouldn't it be more obvious if it were vertical?"

"The person lying down was lying vertically, so the marks in the quilt were originally vertical. If you hide it horizontally, it will be easy to see if the marks on the quilt are strange. But if you hide it along the vertical marks, at least the shape will be fine, but the height will be a little abnormal. But as long as you make the quilt a little fluffy, it should be able to cover it up."

What Shikamaru said made a lot of sense. I kept it in mind and thought about putting it into practice with Naruto tonight.

However, if one of us lies down and the other hides inside, who will serve as a third party to confirm it?

It seems that this matter requires three people to work together.

At this time, Naruto walked in listlessly and sat next to me.

He let out a long sigh: "Iruka-sensei, what a fool... why did you have to give me a lecture before leaving... I haven't done anything recently!"

"Sasuke's gone already?"

"Yeah," Naruto nodded, "Iruka-sensei, put him on your back and take him home."

He paused, lowered his eyes, and was not sure what he was thinking about. He looked a little depressed: "If someone else was sick, their parents would come to pick them up, but Sasuke doesn't have any, so the teacher has to carry him back..."

I leaned close to him and whispered, "If Naruto gets sick in the future, I can carry him back! I can also take care of you, just like Naruto's mom and dad!"

Naruto was amused by me. He glanced at me, and although his tone was much more cheerful, he was not as excited as usual: "Chaolu can't be the same as mom and dad. However, if Chaolu is sick, I can carry you back to take care of you!"

I whispered, "Just like family?"

Naruto was stunned for a moment before he fully recovered, "Yeah! Just like family! Asaka...want to become my family?"

Naruto said something similar the first time I stayed over at his house, and this time he looked at me with even more anticipation than that time.

I frowned in embarrassment: "I'm hesitating."

Naruto asked anxiously: "Why why?"

"Naruto, which one do you think you can stay together for a longer time and more intimately than anyone else, lovers or family members?"

He tilted his head and said as a matter of course: "Of course it's family! Mom and Dad are the most important people!"

"But when Naruto has a lover in the future, he will leave his parents' family and form his own family with his lover. Then he will become a father and have his own children. At this time, his parents will not be able to spend as much time with his wife."

"Then..." Naruto was stunned: "Me and Chaolu become lovers?"

Shikamaru suddenly burst into a loud coughing fit.

Naruto and I both looked over and Naruto screamed, "Shikamaru, are you okay!?"

I quickly reached out and patted Shikamaru on the back.

Shikamaru grabbed my wrist to stop me, and didn't let go as he spoke to Naruto.

His tone was a little aggressive: "Do you know what lovers mean?"

Naruto scratched his hair, "What do you mean?"

I said, "Actually, I don't really understand it either, so I can't be a lover with Naruto yet."

Shikamaru stopped talking and loosened his hand.

He looked at me and asked, "What do you think?"

"I want to ask Shino if she can be my lover first."

Shikamaru:"……"

Naruto: "Huh? Why?"

"It's like this," I said seriously, "many people have told me before that you can't be lovers just because you want to. If you make a mistake, not only can you not be together forever, but you will also be separated because of pain. If Naruto and I can be lovers, we can be together forever, but if we make a mistake, we may not even be able to be family or friends, so--"

I was extremely cautious: "I decided to practice hard first, and fully understand what lovers are and how to become lovers... Anyway, after I become proficient, I will decide whether to become a lover with Naruto. Because I don't want Naruto to feel pain, and I don't want to be separated from Naruto."

Shikamaru took a deep breath and let out a long sigh.

Naruto seemed to understand: "So should I practice with others as well? I don't want to make Chaolu suffer."

I asked, "Who does Naruto want to practice with then?"

Naruto frowned and thought hard, then his shoulders slumped: "...Except for Chaolu, I don't know any other girls...What should I do..."

I held his hands and comforted him, "It's okay, I'll go gain experience first! Then I'll come back and teach Naruto the same way!"

Naruto was touched: "Asakaro always thinks of me... Thank you! Let's make it a deal then!"

Shikamaru:"……"

Naruto saw him and suddenly said, "Then why don't you just practice with Shikamaru?"

Shikamaru said nothing.

I said, "Ino asked the same question before, but Shikamaru is very important... If we become lovers, I'm worried that we won't even be able to be friends in the future."

"What about that Aburame Shino?" Naruto was a little worried: "I've seen him before, he looks like a weirdo!"

"Don't worry!" I smiled and comforted him, "I've been with him before. Shino has a very gentle personality and is a little shy, but he's a good person."

Shikamaru interrupted, "So how are you going to tell him? What if you want to be his lover?"

He sat up straight and asked me, "If I were Shino, what would you tell me?"

I thought about it, turned around and faced him, and said respectfully: "Hello, do you have someone you like?"

Shikamaru said helplessly: "...How should I put it? If I have to say there is a reason...it is true...but she is too stupid."

I didn't take Shikamaru's answer seriously, and thought he was setting obstacles for me: "Then it is necessary for you to learn how to fall in love! Right? I also want to gain experience. I wonder if you are willing to pair up with me to practice how to fall in love? This experience will surely be very helpful when you are with the person you like in the future!"

Shikamaru:"……"

Seeing that he was speechless for a while, I asked expectantly, "How about what I said? Is there anything that needs to be improved?"

Shikamaru didn't say anything, but Naruto gave me a thumbs up to show his respect: "I think it's great! Asaka! There must be no problem with that!"

Shikamaru covered his face: "... Every word is so problematic that I can't give any advice at all... But... forget it... I can't stop you anyway..."

He wiped his face and looked at me with despair: "Go ahead. I think anyone with a normal mind will reject you anyway."
