Kankuro and Temari sat beside each other on the couch, quietly watching the TV, the room bustling with party chatter and mingling.
"Who's ready to get in the pool?!" Kiba hollered, sliding the patio door open.
Everyone in the room eagerly followed him out the door, leaving the room silent. As soon as the coast was clear the sand siblings locked lips as if they'd been waiting for the opportunity the whole time. Sweet, sweet pecks were exchanged as Kankuro lightly held Temari's cheek. Temari leaned a bit closer, placing her hand on his thigh, gripping as the kiss deepened.
Sudden footsteps were heard just around the corner. The siblings snapped back to their quiet, slightly bored demeanors as they pretended to watch TV once more. Like the kiss never even happened. They traded a familiar gaze. One that always accompanied a loving smile. Temari scooted closer to Kankuro, resting her head on his shoulder. He laid his head atop hers.
Seemed innocent enough. Siblings lean on each other all the time. Who'd suspect anything more?
Kankuro pulled a blanket over top their laps, under which they held hands. Fingers intertwined as digits lightly stroked soft skin.
A well-kept secret for years. Their little secret.
