Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

I heard Shikamaru say something but I couldn't make it out clearly because the warm afternoon breeze had already made me drowsy.

I muttered, "I'm sleepy..."

Shikamaru seemed to sigh, "I'll go make your bed, you can get some sleep first."

“No need…” I said with all my strength: “Auntie is cooking, and we’ll have lunch soon, I’ll just lie down for a while.”

After saying that, without waiting for Shikamaru to reply, I laid down on the corridor and closed my eyes.

The wooden floor was cool but not cold, and there was ventilation on all sides. There was sunshine, breeze, and the sound of deer chewing. I felt very comfortable.

"I think sleeping here... is nice..."

"No!" Shikamaru stood up and tried to pull me over: "If my parents see you sleeping on the corridor, they will definitely teach me a lesson for not treating their guests well!"

But once I lay down and closed my eyes, I didn't want to move at all.

Although he could still hear Shikamaru's voice, his mind refused to think and he couldn't open his mouth to respond.

Shikamaru sighed again: "You guy..."

I heard him stand up and go into the house, then he came to me and covered me with a soft blanket.

His movements were very gentle, and I couldn't help but open my eyes and said, "Shikamaru, let's sleep together... Shikamaru should be tired too..."

"I'm fine now. I rested behind you on the way back."

"But didn't Kakashi-san wake you up so quickly...?"

Shikamaru hesitated for a moment, then finally followed and lay down next to me.

He grumbled helplessly: "...I really don't know what my mother will say to me when she sees me like this..."

I had no idea what his mother would say, or what he was hesitating about or worried about—manners, upbringing, established rules, nothing about that.

I just feel that since we are lying here, I can't be the only one covered with a blanket, Shikamaru should have one too.

But Shikamaru was some distance away from me, and the blanket wasn't that big, so I moved towards him. When I pulled up the blanket, I could touch his chin with my forehead when I raised my head.

He lay on his side and watched my movements, appearing very cooperative and quiet.

When I wrapped him in the blanket with my hands, it was like giving him a hug.

I forgot whether I took back my hand that was on him and fell asleep contentedly.

……

I don’t know how long I slept, but suddenly I heard a “click” and I opened my eyes.

Shikamaru's face was very close. He must have been awakened by the "click" sound. He opened his eyes dazedly, with a sleepy look on his face.

But he soon discovered something, rubbed his eyes, sat up, and said unhappily behind me: "Mom, what are you doing?"

I turned my head and saw Shikamaru's mother wearing an apron with a camera in her hand. The "click" sound just now was the sound of the shutter being pressed.

She put down the camera and smiled at us, "Well... I saw you two sleeping next to each other, it was so cute. I thought it was worth remembering!"

I felt like I had slept for a long time, but also like I was woken up just after closing my eyes. My mind and body were still a little dizzy, but Shikamaru had already stood up, so I stood up too.

Shikamaru's mother happily turned around and left with the camera: "Lunch is ready, why don't you go wash your face first?"

Shikamaru started to pick up the blankets on the floor. I looked at him for a while and then realized that I should help. But just as I was about to lend a hand, he said, "No, I can do it by myself."

So I watched him fold the blanket, carry it into the room, put it back in the cupboard, and then come out and take me to the bathroom to wash my face.

"Shikamaru..."

"Ok?"

"Your hair is a little messy."

His hair, which was originally tied tightly at the back of his head, was inevitably a little messy due to sleep, with a few strands falling down. This was a look of Shikamaru that I had never seen before.

"Ah, oh."

Shikamaru simply took off his hairband, and when his hair fell down, it was almost level with his collarbone. I had never seen Shikamaru with his hair loose before, and my eyes widened immediately.

He skillfully and quickly tied up her messy hair. Then he saw my expression and was stunned: "What's wrong?"

He seemed to find it a little funny: "What's that expression on your face? It's as if you saw a deer speaking human language."

"Because I've never seen Shikamaru with his hair down!" I said in surprise, "I always thought that Shikamaru's hair was naturally tied like that. So does Shikamaru have to tie his hair himself every day?"

Shikamaru: "...Whose hair is naturally curly?!"

He hit me on the forehead, "What an idiot!"

"Hmm..." I covered my forehead and suddenly, this afternoon, I realized something inexplicably - Shikamaru, who is so powerful, seems to know everything and always has a solution, is also an ordinary person.

His hair would also be messy, and he would tie it up himself.

Therefore, he will be just like ordinary people. There will be things he cannot do and enemies he cannot defeat. He will also fail and may even die.

I looked at his back and wished he was more special.

He is so special that he can compete with Uchiha Sasuke without any effort, and he is so special that he can easily think of a way to protect everyone without any effort.

"Shikamaru..."

Shikamaru looked back at me.

But I didn't know what to say to him.

"……fine."

"You bastard." Shikamaru pinched my face. I thought he was going to pull me hard, but he just pinched it gently: "Are you teasing me?"

After washing our faces, we felt much more awake and finally felt hungry, so we quickly went to sit at the dining table.

Shikamaru asked, "Where's dad?"

"He's out partying with his friends, don't worry about him."

"Oh."

Compared to her husband, Shikamaru's mother was obviously more curious about me.

She asked with a smile, "What do you want to do in the future, Chaolu? Do you want to be a ninja?"

"Yeah! Be a ninja."

"Being a ninja is not an easy thing. What is the attribute of Chaolu's chakra? What kind of escape technique is she good at? Or is it a genjutsu?"

"I want to be a medical ninja."

"Ah, being a medical ninja isn't easy either. You need to control chakra very carefully."

"Yes, but if I become a medical ninja, I can heal my companions and protect important people, so I will continue to work hard."

Shikamaru suddenly interrupted, "Asahi has very good grades and often gets the highest marks in the class. The teacher also praised her for her excellent use of chakra."

"Really? Chaolu is really excellent!" After saying this, Shikamaru's mother suddenly changed the subject and asked, "So what does Chaolu think of our Shikamaru?"

Shikamaru just took a sip of water and immediately choked.

I quickly put down my chopsticks and patted his back to calm him down: "Are you okay?"

Maybe it was because of choking or because he felt embarrassed under his mother's gaze, Shikamaru coughed and his face turned red: "No... It's okay."

I then replied, "Of course Shikamaru is good."

"Hmm..." Shikamaru's mother's eyes moved between Shikamaru and me, and then stayed on my face for a long time, "When is Chaolu's birthday?"

"It's September 9rd."

"Huh? He's only one day away from Shikamaru!"

Shikamaru and I looked at each other.

Yes, because it was decided based on his birthday.

Shikamaru's mother didn't know this and thought there was such a magical fate in the world. She clapped her hands in amazement and laughed, "What a coincidence! Shikamaru, do you want a sister?"
