Hey Guys,

I'm trying an Ino Kiba pairing, I don't know why, but I think it fits have fun.

Ree-Kun

It wasn't supposed to end up like this; she wasn't supposed to be the one hurt! She wasn't supposed to be the one watching the love of her life fade away before her eyes!.

But still she did. Maybe she had made the wrong choice to go into town at that time, but still she had to clear her mind and there she saw them, Sasuke and Sakura walking together, hand in hand!.

It broke her heart to see them like that, after all, she was in love with Sasuke, she was the one that was supposed to be together with him not Sakura!.

She felt tears running down her face, sliding of the bottom of her chin onto the ground, she turned her back on them and started running, she darted past everyone else, just slowly watching the image of Sasuke fade away before her.

"Hey Ino?" asked Kiba.

She ran passed him crying, without thinking he followed her, when he found her she was in the woods, sitting at the stump of a tree sobbing into her knees.

"Hey Ino, are you okay?" he asked slowly.

Ino looked up warily "What do you want?" she asked her voice shaking.

"Sorry, I just wanted to see if you were alright" he hesitated "Are you?".

"Do I look alright to you?" she asked "no" he admitted "not really" he went and sat down beside her.

"What's up?" he asked, she heard the sound of a faint bark; it was probably Akamaru waiting for his return, "He can wait" said Kiba smiling at her.

"How would you feel if you saw the person you're in love with would start liking or going out with someone else?" asked Ino.

"Well I'd say I feel pretty bad" admitted Kiba, he knew exactly how she felt, everyday having to see the one person that you really liked liking someone else, and after all he had experienced this every day since the chunnin exams.

"Exactly" said Ino "what happened?" asked Kiba nudging her "I saw Sasuke and Sakura" she said glumly "okay, Ino their on the same team you can't really blame them-" "they were holding hands" said Ino sadly looking down into her lap.

Kiba sighed "you took it hard didn't you?" he asked, she didn't answer but kept staring down at her lap "look Ino, if he's too dumb to see what's strait in front of him then he doesn't deserve you, he's to stuck up to see something good when it's looking straight at him" said Kiba, Ino finally looked up, and gave him a soft smile.



"Thanks Kiba" she said, he stood up holding out his hand "well I guess I'll see you around then?" he asked pulling her up, she smiled again and nodded "I hope so" she looked over his shoulder at Akamaru "He's gotten pretty big over the years hasn't he?" she asked "you could say that" said Kiba.

He chuckled but then got serious "hey Ino, if there's ever anything wrong you know you can always come talk to me" he said, Ino hesitated for a moment but then gave him a smile and nodded "yeah, I know now" she said.

He started walking away "hey Kiba hold up" said Ino, he turned around to look at her.

"Aren't you going to walk me home?" she asked grinning.

"If you want me to" said Kiba smiling as well, she nodded slowly.

So they went walking down the street talking until Team Gai walked up to them, well at least half of them, Gai-Sensei wasn't with them.

"Hey Ino" said Ten-Ten waving happily, Ino gave a small wave back greeting everyone "so are you on a date?" asked Ten-Ten "Are you?" asked Ino back coolly, Ten-Ten blushed "no team meeting!" she insisted.

Ino glanced at Kiba who smirked at her "Kiba-Kun!" called a voice, Kiba looked above Ten-Tens head and saw Team Kurenai also walking towards them "where were you?" asked Kurenai "I had to take care of something" he said, Ino gave him a thankful look, he had not told them that she had been crying like any other person would have done.

"Well you missed the meeting" said Shino putting his hands in his pocket, Kiba put his hand behind his head and rubbed it "right sorry bout that" he said smiling innocently.

"I should get going" said Ino dismissing herself from the group "oi Ino wait up, I said I'd walk you remember" said Kiba following her, a faint blush rose to her cheeks but then she nodded and thanked him. Kurenai watched them head to the Yamanaka residence smiling so that's what you were doing Kiba, you've finally proved yourself a man and let someone in thought Kurenai to herself.

When Kiba and Ino reached the Yamanaka residence Ino turned around to face him "thank you" she said smiling "for walking me home, and for comforting me before" she said softly giving him a small bow to show her respect.

"It was nothing" said Kiba smiling back "if there's ever anything wrong, come look for me" he said.

She thanked him again and entered her house; her mother was in the flower shop and had watched everything.

"Who was that Ino?" she asked watering some roses

"A friend" said Ino happily starting to help her mother hopefully a better one then everyone else she thought happily I'm sure he will be she reassured herself.

"What are you doing grinning like an idiot to yourself?" asked her father, he had just entered the shop "oh, nothing" said Ino still smiling.
