Story notes: This takes place in the Shippuden time, and if things go according to my plans, a couple years later. :]
I suppose this story could be considered "fluff" from time to time, so I have labeled it as such.
And if you aren't up to date with the latest Naruto happenings, then I'm sorry, but there are major spoilers in this story. -_- 1. Saya by xaneresx [Reviews - 3] (1200 words)
This chapter introduces Saya. She has a biography so I hope you read that to really get to know her character!
2. Friendship by xaneresx [Reviews - 1] (1826 words)
Chapter 2! Eventually, you will be able to find this story on FanFiction.net (my user name is xxbeliever).
3. There for You by xaneresx [Reviews - 1] (3298 words)
Okay, for those who aren't up to speed on the latest installments of the manga/anime this is a warning that this contains MAJOR SPOILERS!!!
Read at your own risk! A quick note from the author: So I admit that this may be a bit out of character for Shikamaru, but I don't think it's too out of character. This was an emotional time for this was an emotional time for him, and I hope that I was able to cpature his emotion just as well as it was in the anime.
Reviews are nice and completely welcome!
Like? Don't like? I'm considering another story, and based on the reviews I get I may or may not start another story..(for Kakashi. It will be KakashixOCxOC)
