A/N: Well…I'm so sorry for taking so long to update. I have said it would take me a while but chapter three is here. Now…Enjoy…
The squad of four shinobi continued on their mission. It was silent. Not even the sound of wildlife was heard. This day seems very depressing. Shino and Hinata don't appreciate the silence. The two can sense the tension and really they feel very uncomfortable. Why did Naruto have to come with them? He has ruined what could've been a relaxing period for Kiba and he's included in the mission whether team eight likes it or not. The silence was broken from the loud roar of thunder. The instant it was heard Naruto jumped up slightly from his fear of thunder. Team eight simply looked up and noticed how dramatically the sky has changed. Once calm and bright, the sky is now consumed by large black clouds, darkening it.
"It seems it's going to be a raining soon."Shino commented looking up at the darkened sky. Hinata is a bit worried about the storm. It's so sudden one can suspect a ninja could've unleashed it. The dog lover stared up at the sky with understanding. The dog-boy visualized the sky as his heart, beautiful and bright and the dark clouds as his anger and frustration that Naruto brought upon him. Kiba blinked multiple times up at the clouds. Eventually Kiba had envy for the sky. He knows the clouds will only be there for a short period of time or maybe longer, but he knows that the sky will shine again when the clouds subside. Will the clouds Naruto brought upon him ever disappear like the sky? Kiba thought about it for a few seconds and didn't think they will anytime soon.
"We should hurry."Shino added. The Inuzuka and Hyuuga nodded at their teammate while Naruto kept a clueless face. In the next second team eight ran down the path, leaving Naruto behind for a few seconds before he followed. The squad of four ran for about twenty minutes when the first drop of water fell and landed on the brunette's nose. The dog lover twitched slightly from the tiny impact and moments later he could see a cabin in the distance.
"Hey Shino, I can see a cabin a few yards from here."Kiba said pointing at it. The squad of four stopped their jogging and looked at the structure.
"Good job Kiba. Our client should be there."Shino commented. The bug user stared at the environment and is a bit suspicious from the looks of it. The farther the four shinobi followed the path, the number of trees decreased and soon only rocks and sand was visible. To see black clouds up in the sky in the desert doesn't occur very often. Shino shrugged it off and started walking towards the cabin with his teammates following. Moments later the four shinobi are at the doorstep of the cabin. Shino knocked on it lightly three times and waited. There was silence but seconds later footsteps could be heard. Then the door opened.
The four shinobi studied the figure at the door. A woman in a black robe with black hair and red eyes was visible. She seemed about a few inches taller than Shino, she had tan skin, and wrapped around her neck was a headband with Suna's symbol.
The woman's eyes looked over at the four shinobi at her doorstep and she noticed their headbands and she soon knew why they're here.
"You four are here to deliver a scroll, are you not?"The woman asked.
"Yes ma'am. Is this the scroll you need?"Shino reached into his right pants pocket and pulled out the scroll and handed it to the woman. The woman looked at it up and down and at all sides. When she finished studying it she smiled.
"Yep. This is the scroll. Thank you for delivering it."The woman looked at the background and soon noticed the sky consumed in black clouds. She felt a bit of pity for the four Konoha ninja but she can't do anything about it.
"Thanks for delivering it. Now I would recommend you leaving immediately from the looks of those clouds." When she finished her sentence, she closed the door on the ninja. Shino felt annoyed, Naruto didn't care, Hinata looked a bit confused, and Kiba was pissed.
"That's it!? Jeez, you could've at least given us a tip or something!"Kiba yelled angrily at the door. Shino took Kiba by the hood of his jacket and dragged him away a few feet with the blonde and Hyuuga following.
"Don't do that again. That is disappointing I know but we have to deal with it. Now we have to hurry and find a safe place incase rain starts pouring down." Shino told a pouting Kiba. The bug user let go of his hood and started running with the others behind. The four shinobi ran for hours and the clouds didn't subside, neither did they drop water on them, which only made them more suspicious of what it could be. The shinobi were already out of the desert and back on the path in the forest. Soon enough the sun started setting once again. The shinobi halted their steps and stood where they were.
"I guess we'll have to set up camp here."Shino said observing the area while Hinata and Kiba dropped their backpacks on the ground.
"I'll set up the tents and camp, Hinata, you go with Naruto and search for some firewood, and you Kiba, try to sniff out any bodies of water so we can wash up."Shino instructed firmly. Hinata didn't hesitate and she walked into the trees with the blonde behind her to retrieve what they were instructed to bring. Kiba didn't waste time either; he raised his head and sniffed the air for any whiff of water like the river before. Akamaru barked when he caught a whiff of water and Kiba looked down at his dog proudly.
"Lead the way Akamaru."Kiba told the pup. The dog lover started following Akamaru's barking instruction but eventually his own nose caught the smell. Shino took the liberty building everyone's tents and making a small circle of rocks where the fire will be burning. He removed the tents from Hinata's and Kiba's backpacks and started making them. His brunette teammate returned in minutes with a wide grin while he is finishing Hinata's tent.
"Shino! There's a waterfall not very far from here. It's very beautiful and the water is crystal clear."The Inuzuka reported with excitement. Shino sighed and finished up the tents while the dog lover played with Akamaru until Hinata and the whiskered boy returned holding sticks and logs of wood.
"This is as much as we could find Shino."Hinata panted after dropping her share of wood and the blonde dropped his own soon after.
"That's good enough. Now each one of us can go take a bath one at a time at a waterfall Kiba sniffed out for some privacy. Hinata, you're going first, seeing as you are the only female here."Shino told Hinata who nodded and slightly blushed. The Hyuuga walked up to her brunette teammate and the dog lover started leading the way.
Shino and Naruto
When the brunette and pale eyed girl disappeared into the trees, it left the bug user and fox-boy alone for the next few minutes. The Aburame has to hold himself from commanding his bugs to devour the whiskered boy. Shino's rage towards Naruto hasn't lightened up one bit and he feels an urge to make the blonde suffer for what he has done. The blonde on the other hand wants the bug user's approval to talk to the dog lover. The hatred of countless people directed at him for containing the Kyuubi is a heavy weight on his spirit and to have team eight hate him would just be unbearable.
Shino concentrated on starting the fire with a spark from two rocks, and in minutes there was a spark then a fire was born. The Aburame simply stood up and looked down at the flames while the blonde was staring at his back. There were minutes of silence but then the fox-boy broke it.
"So Shino… when will we get home?"Naruto asked to try and break the obvious tension.
"…about two to three hours when we leave in the morning."Shino answered blankly. The silence returned when Shino finished speaking. The blonde doesn't appreciate this and he just went straight to the point.
"Shino…could you maybe…allow me to just talk to Kiba for a few moments alone?"The whiskered boy asked as politely as he could. The bug user turned to look at him and the expression his face holds doesn't look very comforting.
"How foolish do you think I am?"The bug user started."You think I'm going to let you break Kiba's heart again. Well I'm not going to allow that. You are a sorry excuse of a lover and friend…of all people…you…broke Kiba's heart…that is just… unforgivable…"The bug user's words really pierced the blonde. The whiskered boy never thought Shino could come up with such powerful words. Even more surprising that he's standing up for Kiba. Shino is usually quiet and minds his own business. What could've brought the Aburame to act the way he is now? The blonde himself is now getting a bit annoyed with how Shino is acting and he now has his own urges to attack him.
"You don't understand Shino. I realized that what I did was a big stupid mistake and now I want Kiba back." Shino still didn't take it. He thinks the blonde is simply saying these words to get back to Kiba and he isn't going to let Naruto hurt his friend again. The bug user walked to his tent and crawled into it, leaving Naruto in solitude.
Hinata and Kiba
The Inuzuka is leading his pale eyed teammate to the waterfall he has found not far off through the trees. So far, the dog lover's feelings are starting to calm down and this is good for him to relax and maybe even forgive his blonde ex-boyfriend. Not that he plans on accepting him as his love again but just as friends…or maybe he does want the blonde as his lover again. He is still conflicting on that.
His pale eyed teammate though has been thinking on how to get the brunette and blonde back together. Her decision last night was to get the two back together silently without the pair knowing her intentions. In the silence of their walk, the Hyuuga has been thinking of a conversation that could maybe persuade the brunette to give the blonde one more chance or at least let him explain himself. In moments she knew what to say and when she gathered her courage, she spoke.
"Kiba…"Hinata whispered to her teammate.
"Yes?"The brunette answered.
"I was just thinking…what do you think of Naruto?"Hinata asked soothingly. There was no answer for moments but eventually words formed from the dog lover's lips.
"I think he's a selfish whore who doesn't really care about other's feelings other than his own."Kiba answered calmly. Hinata's hope decreased slightly from his answer.
"Well…what did you think of him when you two were together…before you caught him cheating on you?" The dog-boy's thoughts bloomed with the times he had with the blonde when his teammate asked this. Kiba smiled when he looked back at the fun times during his relationship with Naruto.
"Yeah…it was fun…"The dog lover started."We played pranks on each other and unsuspecting victims… we wrestled and sure fought a lot." Hinata sneaked a peek at her friend's expression and smiled. The smile on her teammate's face gave her hope that there is an opportunity this problem will find a solution.
"We used to go on walks when we were tired out from fighting and training…then there was that one prank we pulled on this sour old lady…"the brunette chuckled when he remembered the pranks he and Naruto pulled, "We sure had good times…too bad he only wanted sex."The last comment had Hinata worrying again.
"Have you ever…thought…that maybe…he's really sorry for what he did and he wants y-you back?"Hinata asked hesitantly. The brunette halted his footsteps for a second before continuing.
"Honestly Hinata…I…don't know…"The brunette silenced when he finished the sentence. Hinata though is gaining confidence from his reactions. She would have expected the brunette to freak out and yell at her if he really does hate the blonde as much as he says, but from his reactions Hinata suspects that the dog lover is hiding his true feelings.
"He wants you back Kiba…he has told me that he regrets what he did and that he is deeply sorry for committing such an act."The brunette looked down at the grass and his dog seemed to now sniff his master's distress.
"Kiba…"
"Yeah?"
"Could you maybe…give Naruto one more chance…or at least let him explain himself."Hinata requested in a whisper. The brunette started thinking if he should. Yesterday at the river certainly seemed like the blonde meant what he said and if his teammate Hinata is requesting him to give the blonde a chance then what can he say? He certainly doesn't want to refuse her request and he really wants to hear Naruto's explanation. If it satisfies him, then he'll accept the blonde back, if not, then…they shall remain apart.
"Alright Hinata…I'll at least let him explain himself."The dog-boy answered with a smile. Hinata was happy at this and she hopes Naruto will earn his lover back. Kiba on the other hand is actually plotting in his mind. He'll wait and see what the blonde will do when they have time alone.
Minutes later the pair managed to reach the waterfall Kiba had mentioned earlier. The Inuzuka hid behind a tree to give his teammate some privacy while she bathed under the water. In minutes the Hyuuga was done and the pair soon headed back to camp.
Shino and Naruto/Kyuubi
The whole time Naruto has been outside alone while Shino has been in his tent. Of course the blonde has been talking to Kyuubi to occupy his time and right now the two are having a conversation in his mind while the fox-boy's body is sitting down and leaning against a tree.
"I'm telling you kit. Bug boy is after your mate. He's simply defending him until your puppy forgets you completely so that he can make his move on him to take him… and then he'll be completely out of our reach." Kyuubi explained to the whiskered boy.
"How do you know? It seems to me that he's protecting Kiba from any harm…I guess… I deserve this…"Naruto is starting to feel the sorrow for his actions now but he's still keeping that obnoxious attitude and fake smile on his face and Kyuubi will make sure to claim Kiba for Naruto only.
"Although you do deserve a punishment for such actions…I can tell that bug-boy is after your mate. His stance and tone are messaging you to back off and I will not take that lightly. If he tries to claim your mate I WILL jump into the situation."The blonde looked at the fox with pure anger for such words.
"You are not to harm ANYONE…I don't want to cause them any harm…and I will not allow you to take control of my body."The blonde glared at Kyuubi with serious eyes that made the fox back off. Kyuubi does hate to be concealed inside the whiskered boy but he has grown respect for him after witnessing the events Naruto has endured, but…after what he did to Kiba he has lost some of his respect.
Seconds later footsteps could be heard.
"Looks like he's returning…now try again if you get a moment alone with him…pin him down if necessary."The blonde frowned at Kyuubi's sentence of pinning down Kiba. The blonde snapped back to reality and looked in the direction of the sound and there was Hinata and Kiba walking back to camp.
The blonde stood up and leaned against the tree behind him. Hinata and Kiba were in the camp in seconds and when he looked over at Hinata, she sent him a smile with a blush involved. Naruto is still wondering why she does that…he is still oblivious to her feelings even though it's obvious to the rest of his friends.
Hinata walked up to the fox-boy and asked where the bug user is and the blonde responded by pointing at a tent. The Hyuuga walked to the bug user's tent and called his name out quietly. There was no response and really, she has been calling his name for minutes now. The brunette, who is sitting down close to the fire, decided to speed things up a bit. The brunette took a deep breath and…
"SHINO!!!!"Kiba yelled at his loudest. The blonde and Hyuuga jumped from the outburst and in seconds the bug user crawled out of his tent and looked over at Kiba with a glare.
"Don't…ever…do that again."Shino demanded sternly. His demand only made the dog-boy laugh and the blonde couldn't help but join in. Hinata looked at Shino with a large grin that made Shino question if it was the Hyuuga or not.
"It's your turn to take a bath Shino-kun… I'll be… going to sleep now."Hinata told Shino before she went to her tent and crawled in it. The bug user walked to his brunette teammate. The dog-boy's lips formed a small smile and started walking back into the trees with the Aburame following and his dog still in his jacket.
The Inuzuka and Aburame were silent the whole walk to the waterfall and back. Of course Kiba hid behind a tree while the bug user bathed and it disappointed the Aburame for a reason unknown to him. The blonde was in his trance again where Kyuubi was scowling at him for leaving the Aburame and Inuzuka alone. It didn't take long for the two teammates to return though and that gave the whiskered boy some relief.
The bug user looked over at Naruto then at his tent.
"I guess it's your turn…"The bug user walked a few steps towards his tent before stopping.
"But let me warn you again…"Shino started.
"If you so much as touch Kiba…my bugs will devour your body."Shino warned before crawling into his own tent and surprisingly his warning intimidated the fox-boy.
"I'm telling you kit. He wants to make your puppy his own."Kyuubi growled in Naruto's mind. Kyuubi really wants to shred Shino into pieces. The bug user's actions show him that he's challenging Naruto and he doesn't like that.
"Would you please stop!?"The blonde yelled at the fox. "I refuse to believe Shino is after Kiba…and if he is…then…I don't know what to say."The blonde noticed Kiba walking back through the same path he has taken Shino and Hinata. The brunette looked back at him, eyes and face expressionless and his dog barked at the whiskered boy.
"Are you coming?"Kiba questioned to the blonde. Naruto didn't respond but simply walked towards Kiba and followed his lead.
Their walk was silent and tension filled the air. The blonde kept following the brunette who kept his gaze forward. Not even looking back once to look at him or talk to him.
"I guess now is a very good chance for you to claim him. Bug boy and that girl are not present. You can take him here and now Naruto to claim him for you only."The fox said eagerly wanting Naruto to claim the brunette already. The blonde ignored every idea the fox came up with but he does have a small devious plan of his own that popped into his head. He plans to make this work and of course he will make sure nothing interrupts.
In minutes the fox-boy could hear the roaring waters of a waterfall. After the pair walked through one final bush, Naruto caught sight of a large waterfall flowing with water as clear as crystal. Naruto stared at it mesmerized by its beauty until he heard the dog-boy speak.
"Just take your bath and let me know when you're done so that we can leave."The second he finished his sentence, the brunette hoped into the trees to hide. The whiskered boy smirked slightly. His plan should ease the situation a bit and right now it seems like the dog lover's hate and pain is slowly calming down. Naruto can still feel the dog-boy's anger but at the same time he knows that the brunette wants him back and his little plan might increase his chances of getting Kiba back…or so he thinks.
The blonde took the time to actually clean himself while the dog lover is hiding behind a tree. When Naruto finished, he dressed quickly and looked around for Kiba but he couldn't get a clue as to which tree he could be hiding in. He decided not to look for the brunette sense that would make Kiba suspect something. The blonde called out Kiba's name and in a second Kiba jumped off the tree he was hiding in. The brunette didn't even look at him but started walking back to camp. Naruto knew it was now or never.
The blonde followed obediently behind Kiba for a few minutes until he decided to bring his plan into action. Naruto ran ahead and stopped in front of Kiba. This surprised the brunette and then started getting ready for anything Naruto might try to do. Unfortunately for Kiba, Naruto quickly tackled him before he could react and soon pinned him to a tree.
Naruto's body was firmly pressing against Kiba's. Akamaru was barking and biting at the blonde's jacket until Naruto pulled the pup out of Kiba's jacket by the head and threw the pup to the side. Kiba was outraged at how Naruto treated his best friend and he doesn't appreciate being this close to his ex-lover.
"Naruto LET ME GO! AND HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO AKAMARU!!"Kiba yelled in hopes his teammates would hear his cries. Naruto doesn't like how loud Kiba is right now and is now deciding to speed up his plan.
Naruto moved his hands down to the bottom of Kiba's thighs, lifted the brunette off the ground, and leaned close to Kiba's left ear.
"I know you miss me Kiba. I know you want me…you shouldn't resist me, I know that you still have feelings for me…and I know you'll enjoy this."Naruto whispered seductively. The words made Kiba almost melt and let Naruto do what he wanted but Kiba rejected his desires. The chance Kiba had planned to give the blonde from Hinata's request has been used up completely and Kiba doesn't want the blonde near him anymore.
Naruto is struggling too. His sorrowful feelings make him feel guilty for what he's doing but he has to get Kiba back. Kiba's hands were trying to push the blonde away but to no avail. Naruto ended Kiba's attempts by capturing those warm soft lips with his own. The instant their lips made contact, Kiba halted all movement.
What is this feeling? Why does it feel…good? Kiba can't tell what this feeling is other that it's pleasurable and Kiba can't help but want more. Naruto himself felt something he hasn't. This feels…nice. Unlike the lust filled kisses he shared with Sasuke, this one felt innocent. Kiba's eyes were closed shut with fear of this new feeling. His anger and hatred melted away and now he can't think straight. A red blush developed on Kiba's face and instinctively he wrapped his arms around Naruto's neck.
The blonde could feel Kiba's attempts to pull away have faded completely and with this thought, his hands wrapped the dog-boy's legs around his waist. The blonde pressed his body closer to the brunette's, resulting in shivers. Naruto started moving his lips against Kiba's.
The brunette's body shivered with such anxiousness. His whole time with the blonde he was never given a kiss. Not to mention this is his first kiss and he doesn't know how to react to such a feeling.
But the dog-boy can't help but feel guilty. Two days ago the blonde cheats on him and he hates him, but now he lets Naruto kiss him and he submits to it.
Their kiss was nothing the two have ever experienced and truly the two craved more of this feeling. Their bodies pressing together and the blonde grinding his body against the dog lover's to make this more pleasurable for them. Kiba couldn't help but release a moan when the blonde started grinding, the air around them slowly heating up from their actions. Naruto, moving his lips soothingly against Kiba's, his body warming the others, and just the sensation of their bodies touching made the blonde and brunette lose themselves in the feeling.
These new feelings and new sensations didn't last very long though. Soon enough Akamaru started barking at the kissing pair and biting at Naruto's leg. Kiba escaped his blissful state and is alert again. The brunette started pulling away, his hands leaving Naruto's neck and now on the blonde's shoulders, trying to push the whiskered boy away. Naruto could feel the dog lover's attempts to end the kiss. Naruto doesn't want to force Kiba completely so he loosened his grip. Kiba felt the blonde's grip loosen and in result his legs fell to the ground so that now he is standing on his own and he pushed the blonde off of him roughly, ending the kiss. Naruto stepped back a few feet across the dog lover and looked at him.
The two boys are panting. The heat of what happened made them lose their breaths. Kiba leaned against the tree Naruto pinned him to and looked down at his best friend. The pup whimpered from worry at his master. The white pup was worried that maybe Naruto was going to rape his master…or maybe his master enjoyed it. Akamaru considered the possibility and if so…he doesn't really know what to think.
Kiba picked up Akamaru and placed him on his shoulder but before walking off he looked at the blonde with pleading eyes. Naruto looked into those eyes and hope filled his heart. Kiba does want him back. Kiba still has feelings for him. The blonde's hopes were shattered when those eyes turned hateful and Kiba had a frown on his face.
"NEVER TOUCH ME AGAIN YOU BASTARD!" yelled the brunette before running off into the trees. The blonde responded quickly though, following the dog-boy. Naruto followed the running brunette through the trees back to camp. Soon Kiba had made it and quickly made his way into his tent.
"If only that mutt didn't interrupt then you could've claimed him right then and there."Kyuubi spoke.
"That felt…different…it felt…nice…not like the kisses I shared with Sasuke."The blonde thought while his right index finger brushed against his lips.
"Well…let's hope tomorrow you'll be able to claim him."Kyuubi ended. The blonde made his way to Hinata's tent and crawled in and took up the space that Hinata didn't occupy. Lucky for him Hinata was lying on her side and had a nice clear space for him to sleep. Naruto got in a comfortable position and closed his eyes to dream about Kiba.
Over at Kiba's tent the dog lover is on the verge of tears. His first kiss…has been stolen by Naruto. Kiba planned on giving the blonde a chance but what he did today only scared him but he enjoyed the kiss. It felt nice…it is indescribable to be honest. He closed his eyes and waited for tomorrow in hopes that it'll be better. This mission hasn't been very helpful at the least. His dog at his side also hoping that tomorrow will be better.
Unfortunately for them…it isn't.
