Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto nor do I own anything affiliated with Naruto.
I like ShinoNaru. I don't exactly love the pairing, but I think it's cute.
These will all be drabbles, but they will tie-in to one another so be sure to read the chapters in order. Short chapters, but expect frequent updates.
My goal in the number of chapters? One hundred.
Drabble One - Bugged
It was a very bad day for Shino. Why you may ask? He was, number one, sick.
(Shino didn't like being sick. You wouldn't either if you had hundreds of bugs living inside you.)
Number two, it was raining.
(Now why was the rain so horrible? Ever hear of the old nursery ryhme, the "Itsy Bitsy Spider?")
And number three -
"Shino!"
He was being taken care of by Naruto.
"Shino!" came the voice again. "Where did you put that medicine!"
That voice... that voice... that voice was going to be the end of him. His head ringing with pain, he grunted and shifted in his bed, trying to find a more comfortable position to sleep in. Or rather, try to sleep in. Which at the moment, was an exteme impossibility.
"Nevermind! I found it!" came the childlike cry. Shino heard his footsteps drawing nearer to the room he currently occupied.
"Oi, Shino, you okay? You look paler..."
Shino turned in the bed to face the blonde who looked at him, his face etched with concern.
"Naruto..." Shino said in a hoarse whisper. "If you really want to help me get better, do a me a favor and shut up."
Hurt and indignation briefly flashed over the blonde's face.
"Fine." he said pouting. "Anyways, here's your medicine and the tea you wanted."
Shino grunted his thanks, but before he could reach out to take a sip of tea -
Naruto was in the bed with him, cuddling against his side. Shino raised an eyebrow, but decided against questioning him.
Five minutes passed... he had taken his medicine, ten minutes passed... he had finished his tea, fifteen minutes passed when Shino decided to ask,
"Why are you so quiet?" looking down at the boy clinging to his side.
Naruto raised his head to meet eyes with Shino with a questioning expression.
"You told me to shut up." he said in a voice so innocent Shino gave a snort of laughter.
"What's so funny?" Naruto asked.
"Nothing..."
Shino closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around the blonde, head resting against his chest. Shino sighed with quiet content. He enjoyed the warmth, more so than the fact that Naruto was actually quiet for once.
True, it was raining... True, he was sick... but if days like now ended like this, he could just get used to them.
Note: Ninety nine chapters to go! Review and rate please.
