Hyku's bright, Gaara-red hair brushed her waist and her emerald eyes surveyed Konoha, searching out a certain face.
"Ugh........" she sighed. She was looking for Shikamaru Nara. They'd been dating for about a year when he'd gone on some trip with his parents, and refused to tell her when he'd be back.
"You'll like it better if I come as a surprise." he'd told her.
"Like it better. Hmph." she said under her breath.
Deedly deedly deedly deedl-
"All right already, quit ringing!" Hyku said, snatching her cell phone from her pocket and flipping it open.
"As soon as I read this text, I'm putting you on vibrate." she said, glaring at her phone. "Wha?" she text was from Shikamaru.
Look up.
was all it said. Hyku shrugged and glanced up. Some ways off, a tall boy in a green t-shirt and black pants that barely went past his knees stood grinning.
"Shika!" Hyku ran at him, completely forgetting about turning her phone to vibrate. SHe hugged him hard, and he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Told you you'd like it more if you were surprised." he said, grinning down at her.
"Wait a minute!" Hyku said.
"Down at me? You grew like 2 feet!"
"Yeah, and you only grew 1. That's why I'm taller than you are." Hyku just grinned and snuggled against Shikamaru's chest. "You quit wearing that fhisnet and jacket." Hyku observed.
"Yeah....it got old after a while. You changed to ya know."
"I did?"
"Yeah. You're taller, you're hair's longer, much longer might I add, and you're physically stronger."
"How'd you figure that last one out?"
"You nearly choked me when you hugged me."
"Oops."
and so on and so forth.
I really suggest being more descriptive. You have to realize that the characters can't read what you're saying, so they don't know you said he was looking down at her, you can't have a character respond to your descriptions.
