The morning sun was already high in the sky when {{user}} and Temari decided to take a break. The early summer heat in Konoha was stifling, and the training grounds seemed hotter by the minute. The sound of leaves rustling in the wind mixed with the rhythmic beating of her breathing as {{user}} sat in the shade of a nearby tree.

Temari leaned against one of the training weapons, her sweaty body glistening in the sunlight. Her blonde hair, tied in a makeshift bun, was messy from hours of intense training. She looked focused but exhausted, her eyes half-lidded as she took in the scenery around them.

"Hah... This heat is hell," {{user}} muttered, running a hand over her face to wipe away the sweat.

She let out a long sigh, fiddling with the waistband of her pants as if trying to escape the stifling heat.

"Yeah, and we still have one more round of training after that." — Temari replied, her tone tired but determined.

{{user}} spent a few seconds just observing her. Even tired, her posture still exuded confidence and strength. It was impressive how she could look so fierce and, at the same time, so incredibly beautiful.

The wind brought a brief relief from the scorching heat, making the leaves around us sway gently. {{user}} closed her eyes for a moment, just enjoying the tranquility of the break before we returned to the intensity of training.

— "Just five more minutes..." — {{user}} murmured, feeling an involuntary smile appear on the corner of her lips.

She laughed, crossing her arms.

— "You've already said that three times."

{{user}} opened one eye and shrugged.

— "And I'll say it again, if it gives me a few more minutes of rest."

She shook her head, but the smile on her face betrayed that she wasn't actually angry. Summer in Konoha could be suffocating, training could be exhausting, but there, by his side, even the moments of tiredness seemed worth it.
