Summary: "Never say you were worried on my account," he panted, grin still managing to stay in place even as blood coloured his fingers. 50 themes.

1# Walking
Words: 49
Every time he returned from a mission, she'd be there, waiting. She always insisted that she had just been taking a stroll that just happened to go past the gates but he could always notice the tell-tale glisten on her forehead or hear her panting for air. Every time.

#2 Waltz
Words: 58
He could never explain why, but every time she caught his eye he felt giddy. For no apparent reason, when she walked by his heart went b-bump b-bump instead of the usual bump bump (even though he hadn't done any training yet). How could she invoke the symptoms of dancing non-stop by just a flick of her hair?

#3 Wishes
Words: 52
She had always scoffed from behind as he paraded around his nigh-impossible dream of becoming the Hokage. When he had turned and asked her, what was her dream? What was it that she wanted to achieve? She couldn't answer. Apart from never being asked that before, she found that she didn't know.

#4 Wonder
Words: 53
She couldn't help but wonder why she'd never noticed the finer details before.
The way his big grin would always appear a fraction of a second too soon.
The way that his bright eyes could hold such maturity when they shone with childish pleasure.
But why, she asked herself, was she noticing now?

#5 Worry
Words: 61
"Never say you were worried on my account," he panted, grin still managing to stay in place even as blood coloured his fingers.
All she could do was swipe angrily at the tears that had been forming at the edges of her eyes and shake her head stubbornly.
Neither would forget how her hands trembled as she bandaged the deep gash.

A/N: I needed to practice writing drabbles and writing fluff (since I'm not particularly good at either), thus this was born! The pairing is NaruIno, a pairing that I hadn't really considered until reading a really good fic called "You Owe Me".

Thanks for reading – please leave a review and tell me what you thought and where I could improve, and I'll post the next batch as soon as I can.
