Shikamaru continued his watch on the targets. The sun was setting. Normally he would be next to Naruto, snuggled closely to the blonde as they watched the sunset. Shikamaru always loved sky watching and found the sunset one of the most beautiful things on this planet Earth. He used to say it was the most beautiful thing, but then he met Naruto. This mission sucked balls. They weren't allowed to get proper rest. They had to sleep in shifts as they always had to keep an eye on the targets.
Shikamaru laid in his makeshift cot, looking up at the clouds, wondering if Naruto would still watch them even if he wasn't there. He missed Naruto so much, he started to cry out of loneliness. It was like a part of him was missing, he couldn't bare it.
