Summary: Shikamaru and Temari are at a common make out spot when an oncoming vehicle hits their car. See what happens during their recovery together. Rated M for future chapters.

Shade8: I don't like the summary but it's the best I can do so just deal with it. Oh also Shikamaru is like 20 so that makes Temari like 23. Ok on with the disclaimer.

Disclaimer: I hate doing this so this is the only time I'll say it. I don't own Naruto or any of the characters. But honestly if I did I wouldn't be writing this.

CHAPTER 1 CRASH!

Shikamaru and Temari have been going out for a long time and it's well known by everyone that they are going to be engaged soon.

One night the couple goes out for dinner and a movie. Afterwards they drive to the common make out spot on the outskirts of Konoha, over looking a small but rocky cliff.

Shikamaru drives into the secluded parking lot noting the existence of some of his friends' cars. He parks his car directly across from the entrance to the parking lot. This regular spot of theirs has the best view of Konoha and they've been visiting it every Saturday night for the past three years.

As Shikamaru turns of the ignition Temari unbuckles her seatbelt and leans over to kiss Shikamaru, who is in the process of taking off his own seatbelt.

While unknown to the group of intimate couples enjoying themselves in the parking lot that two of their lives are about to be changed forever. As the driver to a large tractor-trailer falls asleep at the wheel and heads straight towards the entrance of the parking lot.

By now Temari is sitting on Shikamaru's lap and they are locked in a passionate kiss when they finally pull apart for air. Shikamaru, trying to unbutton Temari's top while she attempts to catch her breath, notices a bright reflection in the rear view mirror.

He turns around to see headlights heading straight for them just as Temari starts to scream.

Thinking fast Shikamaru grabs the horrified Temari and switches places with her, shielding her with his own body. And then . . .

CRASH!

They're hurled into the windshield and the car is vaulted over the protective railing. The car is sent hurdling down the rocky cliff flipping and spinning off every rock and boulder. After the longest seconds of the young couple's life, the car comes to a screeching halt upside-down at the bottom of the cliff.

With the last bit of energy he has left despite many painful wounds and the numbness slowly creeping over his body Shikamaru proceeds to find Temari in the wreckage.

And there she is less than ten feet away bruised, bleeding, but breathing. The wounded Shikamaru climbs out of the car and makes his way to his injured girlfriend.

To his great relief he finds her awake. Kneeling down he grabs her hand and whispers into her ear.

" Everything's going to be ok"

" I love you," she whispers back.

They loose consciousness in each other's arm to the sound of sirens.

Shade8:I know its short and it probably sucks but that's the first chapter. I'm not going to beg you for reviews but they will be highly appreciated. The second chapter will come out in about a week if any one wants to read. (I won't blame you if you don't) Also the story takes place in Konoho but there is more technology like cars.
