This story is about my favorite Inuzuka, Hana! Worship her now or else.

Hana walked through a sun-lit meadow, looking for medical herbs. The sun glistened off her pale skin and seemed to make her glow. She was truely a work of art, many of the village men had eyes for her. Many fought for her love, other amired from afar.

Among those shy ones is Aburame Shino. Who just happened to be around the meadow Hana was gathering herbs in. He was always to nervous to confront her with Kiba or Hinata around. They were his teammates, and Kiba was her younger brother. He couldn't even begin to grasp what they would say about it. But now he could talk to her...they were alone now, after all. No Kiba to wtf over flirting with his older sister. This....This was alone time between him and Hana, thinking of it made him tingle. This was perfect.

Shino walked over to the tall, slender young woman from behind, unsure of how to great her. He was about to say something, when a mature female voice fills the air. "Oh, hello Shino-kun." She said as she turned towards him "You scared me there" then bowed.

"I'm very sorry, Hana-chan. I didn't mean to scare you." the bug-boy said.

"Well, you're pretty good at it if you didn't mean to" she chuckled. Then her expression turned to a questioning one. "Why are you here, then?"

He paused. This is the moment he dreaded. How could he show her his feelings. A flash back of a time he spent with Ino popped into his head.

"A kiss is a way to express your feelings without words. If you EVER find a girl you like and don't know what to say, and I'm sure this'll happen to someone as shy as you, just kiss her and she'll know exactly what you're trying to say" Said a hyperactive Ino. She was always in to dramas.

"... I doubt I'll need this information, but thank you any ways. Can we get back to the mission" was the brunette's impatient reply.

Now, Shino wished he asked more questions. How should he kiss her? On her lips, or on the check? What should he say when its done?"Oh, what the hell", Shino thought as he dove in for Hana's lips. His tongue slipped in her mouth and wrestled with hers for a second. And then Hana started to deepen the kiss. Did she have feelings for him, too?

When they were done, Hana pulled back and blushed. So did Shino. And in unison, the new couple said:

"I love you, baby"
