Chouji// Warmth

I would like to thank Jessica Messica for requesting Chouji bc she never got the original chouji oneshot she wanted.

It's also 12am so I'm sorry ahead of time lmao.

You yawned, walking into your first period class. Dressed in a pair of grey joggers and a long sleeve shirt. You ran your fingers through your hair and pulled off your beanie with it, finally out of the cool air of the school hallways with opened doors and windows. You slouched into your seat near the door on the right side near the wall. Shikamaru and Chouji were in the next row chatting softly.

"Someone's tired." Shikamaru commented with raised brows.

"Fuck off. Kakashi's English paper was due today." You grumbled rubbing one of your eyes.

They both let out "ooooo"s and shook their heads, "That's rough buddy."

"Did you get any coffee?" Chouji asked.

"No. I was going to stop into Dunkin Donuts but Tenten doesn't work this morning, figures." You rolled your eyes.

"What's the point of them working at coffee places and not getting free coffee?" Shikamaru asked laying his head on his desk.

"Who's to say? Neji doesn't even give discounts." Chouji commented.

"That's a tragedy, really." You yawned again as more tired teens stumbled into study hall.

"I say," Shikamaru said resting his head in his hands, "we go round up the gang and leave poor ol' Anko to her morning scramble." He suggested.

"Where to go?" You asked.

"I know a spot." Chouji said with a smile. "Best coffee ever."

"You're so great Chouji, really." You said happily standing up.

Shikamaru and Chouji stood up as well and walked out of the door. You grabbed Kiba and Naruto as they were walking in and dragged them along with, "C'mon, boys."

"What? An adventure already?" Kiba asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Coffee run." Shikamaru answered with his hands in his pockets.

"I'm down." Naruto said with a smile checking his phone. "As long as we're back by sixth period."

"No promises."

"I have practice today!" Naruto and Kiba grumbled. "Coach says if we're not here for at lease three periods we can't play."

"Yeah and I have a test eighth, so." Shikamaru shrugged, "It's a drag but that's what you get with AP Art History."

"I think," Kiba said as they climbed into his car, "that (y/n) and Chouji need to get over it already and just date."

Shikamaru got in the passenger side and Naruto buckled into the left side behind Kiba. "I keep telling Chouji to go for it. He's just... shy I guess." Shikamaru shrugged, "That's why I rode with you guys. Hopefully he can grow some and ask her out already."

"If he doesn't I'm gonna be pissed." Naruto said with his eyes rolling into his head. "It's so blatantly obvious that they like each other."

Kiba and Shikamaru held out their hands to Naruto who gave them high fives, "Great vocab, Foxy."

"Proud of you." Shikamaru said turning on the heat.

Kiba waiting for Chouji's car to pull out of the parking lot first before they pulled out of their space and followed. "If I lose my spot, I'm kicking ass." Kiba grumbled.

"You'll be fine."

"So where exactly are you taking us?" You asked Chouji as you flipped through the radio stations; three of which you couldn't begin to understand.

"A coffee shop." He smiled, "they're really good."

"How good?" You asked, settling on a pop station.

"Like..." he shrugged, "latte art, books, and all that. And the food is incredible."

"Really? Seems like a good coffee date idea." You hinted with raised brows as you looked out the window.

"I wanted to take you there as a date, but ya know." He shrugged and grabbed one of your hands.

His large palm engulfed yours in warmth and you smiled, "I can't wait to tell them."

"I can't either."

//

You all ordered food and drinks and waited at the large booth. You and Chouji on one side and the other boys on the opposite side. You smiled big and Chouji felt his cheeks flush. "We have something to tell you guys." You beamed.

"You're pregnant?" Shikamaru asked.

"No."

"Chouji is going on a diet?" Naruto asked.

"No—"

"You're both going on diets?" Kiba asked with a shrug.

"No," you rolled your eyes, "Chouji and I are dating."

Shikamaru's eyes almost popped from his skull, "You're what?"

Chouji's face reddened, "I was going to tell you Shikamaru, honest. I just didn't know when would be a good time."

"So what, you thought sitting us all down like a group therapy session would be best?" Kiba asked.

"Yeah, you could've just said it." Naruto said rolling his eyes.

"God, you're treating us like kids. Actual children." Shikamaru grumbled.

"Do you want a kids menu?" You asked with a giggle.

Shikamaru our his chin on the table and smiled. Kiba and Naruto  both looked at the small coffee menu and ordered. Chouji grabbed your hand under the table and Shikamaru noticed your blush.

The coffee shop always seems warmer after that.
