NOTES I don't own Naruto or any of the Naruto characters. This applies to all the chapters of this story.
My friend pointed out to me that there were no romance stories for this couple, and we both agree that they'd be really cute together. So I decided to try and write the first real romance between them for this site.
Reviews and comments are loved
I sighed. Took a swig of sake sighed again. This had to be the worst day of my life. All I wanted to do was drown my sorrows in alcohol in front of me and forget about everything.
The door to the bar tinkled as it was opened.
"Hey Kiba." A deep voice called me from the doorway. I looked up at the familiar frame of the Akimichi clan. "Hinata said you came here sometimes."
"Hey." I replied, sadly raising the bottle to my lips. "So, what do you need anyway?"
"You're really down, aren't you?" The larger boy slipped into the seat across from me.
"What makes you say that?" I slurred, "It's not as if my life's falling apart or anything…no, wait."
Despite the fact I was serious, and he knew that, the skin on Choji's face stretched into a smile. "I heard."
"Hinata really did tell you, didn't she?"
"Yeah," I closed my eyes against the harsh reality around me, "But, I mean, it can't be that bad." He continued, trying to get me to snap out of my depression.
"It is." I replied bluntly, ordering another round of sake.
"Kiba…" The sake bottle disappeared halfway to my mouth. I reopened my eyes to see the porcelain bottle in Choji's hands. A concerned gleam was in his eye. I sighed.
"You wouldn't understand."
"C'mon Kiba, everyone's been there."
"Yeah right." I snatched back my drink.
"Believe me, Kiba. Everyone feels like the world is ending at some point or another. It's usually nothing much. They laugh about it later."
"Nothing much!" I stood up, accidentally knocking the table into Choji's wide berth. I was only slightly aware of yelling in my drunken stupor, but it seemed I was. "Nothing much! How about I decide what's nothing much? How's Akamaru being sick nothing much? The fact he's stuck in the veterinary's office nothing much!"
Choji slowly rose to join me. Carefully avoiding my flailing limbs, he reached for me, trying to calm down my alcohol induced rage. "He'll get better Kiba. You've said yourself that you can always count on Akamaru.
"That's not all! My girlfriend dumped me, DUMPED ME!"
"Kiba, that's not-"
"Yeah, you would know! You get dumped all the time, don't you Choji?" Even through the haze I could see that struck hard. In the back of my mind I knew I would regret it in the morning, but for know I just kept on ranting. "But for you at least they have some sort of understandable reason!"
Even drunk I knew that was way too far. Choji withdrew his hand. "Yeah," He looked to the floor, "Lucky me, I get to be single because all the women in this village are too superficial to stay with me."
"So you agree all the women are bitches!" Finally Choji put a hand on my shoulder and pushed me back into my seat. He gave a nervous smile to everyone else in the bar.
"That's not what I meant." He hissed.
"Well my woman was a bitch! You want to know that bitch dumped me? If that doesn't show you how fickle woman are then nothing will!
You know, she dumped me because I'm bi! Yeah! She found out that I was bisexual and dumped me because I might like a guy. How stupid is that?"
Choji blinked, "She dumped you for that? Really?"
"Yes!" I sighed again as I calmed down. I had to admit it felt good to let someone know. I ordered one last bottle of sake, though I drifted off into a sake induced sleep before I finished it.
