Kiba pulled at the collar of his formal kimono, he'd swear his sister must've put a time delayed shrinking jutsu on it before giving it to him with a smile, with a smile! That could be the only logical reason why the damn thing felt tighter every minute he passed waiting for Hiashi Hyuuga.
He pondered on the series of events that led to him being here as he tried to distract himself from the portable hangman's noose that masqueraded as his kimono's collar.
O-O-O-O
It'd started a year ago, with Naruto painting 'Sakura will you marry me?' in bright orange on the Hokage monument. The 26 year old had to wait two weeks to get the affirmative, it took him that long to get out of hospital, where he'd ended up once said pinkette and her mentor caught him and pounded some sense into him.
Next up was Sasuke, who proposed to that female he'd met while with Orochi-teme, Karin. He'd needed a little persuasion, courtesy of Naruto's fists and Sakura's voice in Banshee mode.(Kiba could testify that it hurt, a lot.) In the end, the girl had yelled "Yes Sasuke-kun!" before the duck's ass even managed to get beyond his opening 'Hnn'. Maybe being around him so much helped her understand Uchiha-speak, but Kiba still hadn't quite gotten the hang of it.
Sai 'the dickless' (Ha!) was in a rush so he made Ino a diamond ring of ink, which lasted till that afternoon's cloud burst. The lucky bastard however, got two weeks notice to get a real ring or the whole thing was off. The dick managed to pull it off.
Once Temari heard about this, she'd nagged Shikamaru, till ole pineapple head had shadow-bound her and proposed. Gaara had chased him around the village thrice for that stunt.
In fact Chouji, who was marrying a girl he'd met on an A-rank to Wave, had joked about 'four weddings and a funeral' (closed casket, of course).
Tenten and Neji had gotten hitched two months later, followed by Lee and a girl Kiba suspected had brain damage. Shino was the most recent marrying a fellow bug-user from Rice.
The final straw came when Akamaru started strutting around as only someone who'd ensured the legacy of the Inuzuka (companions) continued for another generation could.
O-O-O-O
Thus Kiba Inuzuka found himself now facing the cool, expressionless visage of the Hyuuga Head, Hiashi Hyuuga.
"Hyuuga-dono," Kiba started nervously, "I've come to … er… that is…. Hinata… umm.. I've come to request your daughter Hinata's paw in marriage." Kiba rushed out, blushing as madly as said Hyuuga maiden did, once he realized the slip up.
The day would go down in infamy as the first time Hiashi Hyuuga had displayed shock or surprise openly since his wife died. It'd also be the first recorded instance of a Hyuuga laughing for half an hour straight, courtesy of Neji.
