A/N: I don't know where this came from, but I found it amusing, so I thought I'd write it. And I needed a break from schoolwork. Please, enjoy. =)
It's New…It's Improved...It's Multipurpose!
Ino was having a bad day. Not just a 'bad' day…but a day that had found her makeup and hair ruined because, oh, it decided to rain suddenly; a button popped off her top; somehow the chemical she'd been using in the flower shop screwed up her nail polish; and now-she couldn't find the goddamn can opener.
"Where is that stupid thing?" she asked herself, slamming through drawers. "Where did it get put?"
Ino had the dinner menu planned for tonight, but if she couldn't get the stupid can open, then…dinner would be a disaster. Of course, seeing how her day had come along so far, she wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
She heard the door open and close. Kiba called from the entrance. "Hey! I'm home!"
"Great," she grumbled.
She was upset and irritated with him for no good reason. Now she had to find a kunai- -which very well may be tainted with blood and disease- -to open the damn can. Stinging behind her eyes made her feel melodramatic, worsening her already pissy mood.
"Ino? Ino, what's wrong?" Kiba came into the kitchen. "Yer upset. Why?"
Feeling sorry for herself, she lifted the unopened can to show Kiba. "I can't find the can opener."
He laughed and took it from her. "I can get that for you, no problem."
"Really?"
"I'm here to save the day," he replied and kissed her.
His mouth was warm and inviting, and being so close, she could smell the woods and distant sweat on him. Ino felt better and not so frustrated anymore. It was like Kiba had a magic trick he used to calm her down that she didn't know about.
"Watch," Kiba told her, with a smirk.
He lifted it and punctured one of his fangs into the top of it. Deftly, Kiba rotated the can and pushed it forward- -to Ino's surprise, the lid of the can curled up, hooked under his fang.
"There ya go." He handed it back to her. "See," he pointed to his sharp tooth, "can opener."
She couldn't help it; she laughed and remembered why she liked being around him so much. Over dinner, she didn't make a big deal about her shitty day, even when Kiba kissed her fingers and pestered her about it.
A/N: All together now: AWWWW. I luvs these two.
