Ok, this was the moment of truth. All Sakura had to do was say what she needed to say and she could leave. All she had to say was 'Kiba, you're a nice guy but I don't like you like that'. Easy enough…yeah right. Maybe if the person didn't have a temper, but this was Kiba. He was almost as hot-head as Naruto was.
"Well you see…I...well I…" No matter how hard she tried she couldn't get the words to com out. "I really don't know what to say." She finally admitted giving a weak smile.
"How about saying yes?" Kiba replied trying to lighten the mood. He was wearing the same type of smile as her.
Sakura gave a weak laugh at that. She knew that she must have sounded really stupid. It didn't help that Kiba was being sweet and patient with her, or that he was trying to make her feel better. "That's the thing, I can't really say that." She was looking everywhere but at Kiba. She didn't know why but saying this was making her feel bad, and she wasn't the one being rejected.
She finally looked up at him and almost burst into tears. He on the most dejected look on his face and he looked like he was ready. She suddenly felt her heart break in two at this face. She didn't want him to look like that; it wasn't a look he should have to wear.
"Oh…I see." He looked down to the ground and Sakura felt like a total bitch. How dare she make him feel this bad. She could practically feel the pain seeping out from his body.
"No, that's not what I meant!!!" She didn't know why but she didn't want him thinking that she totally rejected him. She watched him slowly bring his gaze back up to her and Sakura was hoping that she was doing the right thing. "What I meant…I can't say yes because I don't know yet if I like you." She said playing with her hair. She could see Kiba straighten up at her response and knew that she had to continue. "You and I don't really hang out so I don't really know what you're like." She was thinking over what Shikamaru had told her this morning.
'Just tell him that you don't have feelings for him like he does you, but say that you would be willing to hang out with him to see if you could develop some. If not he'll know it wasn't meant to be'
She really hoped that Shikamaru was right. "I was thinking that you and I could spend some time together and see if I like you that way or not." She finally said looking at Kiba. She really hoped that she wouldn't regret what she just did. "So…is that ok?"
She was starting to get nervous when he didn't respond. She tried to see if she could tell what he was thinking but she couldn't. He was just staring at her with a blank look on his face. Not knowing what she was supposed to do she just stood there and waited for him to respond now. It would either be a good one or a bad one. Either he would like the idea and the two of them would spend time together and see if she could grow to like him. That, or he'll go on a total rampage and destroy the whole school and with everyone in it.
She almost started laughing at the image of an enraged Kiba running around the school. His eyes would be red with anger and be throwing desks and books all around breaking everything in sight. Then he would carry her off on his shoulder to the top of the school's roof and start yelling in screaming as air planes came by to shoot him down. Just like King Kong.
"So…" Her attention was snapped back when he finally began to respond. "You would do that? Spend time together, just the two of us, and see if you can start liking me?" He was asking her. He didn't seem sure if that was what she meant.
'Well I didn't just mean it would just be us two alone together. We would have people around us too.' She thought to herself moving her hair out of her eyes. "Yeah, something like that." So what if it wasn't exactly what she meant. They would still be sending time together and it probably wouldn't be bad for her if it was just the two of them alone sometimes.
"So in a way…you and I are sort of going out." Kiba said placing a hand behind his head and tried smiling at her.
"We are?" Sakura was sure what he was saying. It was true that she didn't say no to him, but she didn't say yes either.
"Well yeah. My sis, Hana, told me that some of the kids when she was in school use to date each other without being an official couple." He said with a slight blush. "They would go out on dates and stuff and would decide later on if they were serious abut each other or not." He added walking closer to her, his hand went to her but then retreated back.
"Oh, ok." Sakura wasn't really sure what to respond to that. Mostly because she wasn't sure if she completely understood what he was saying? It all sounded confusing to her.
'At least I don't have to worry about anyone fighting or anything like that.' She thought with relief looking up at Kiba. She did have to admit that she didn't mind the idea of going out with him. He was a good looking guy, and he really seemed to care about her, so it shouldn't be bad to be with him. She just needed to look out for anyone that wanted to pick a fight with him.
Now that things were settled and they had everything understood, they had only one other problem to deal with. What the hell were they supposed to do now? Neither one of them has ever been in a relationship before, so neither had any sort of experience. Also because they weren't really boyfriend/girlfriend they weren't sure what type of dates would be appropriate. Probably nothing overly fancy or to serious.
"So…" Kiba broke the silence they enter. "Wanna get some ice cream or something?" The way he asked that made Sakura giggle. He was acting so different from what she usually sees that she found it really nice.
"Sure." She could go for some ice cream, plus she figured it could be the start of them getting to know each other.
With that decided they started to head over towards the ice cream stand together. As they walked on Kiba moved his hand to grasp hold of Sakura's. It caught her off guard for a moment, and she contemplated on letting go, but decided to leave it alone. It wouldn't kill her to hold his hand; they were kind of going out now. Besides it felt nice and warm to hold his hand.
"HOLD IT!" Out of nowhere Naruto appeared behind them, placing both hands on their shoulders, making the two separate. He gave Kiba a pissed off glare.
"What the hell?!" Kiba was the first to react. He made a fist and growled at Naruto.
"Naruto? What are you doing here?" Sakura looked at her best friend and could only begin to wonder what he was actually doing here.
"I'm here to save you from this stupid dog!" Naruto said pointing an accusing finger at Kiba.
"What did you call me!?" Kiba took a step towards Naruto, ready to knock his lights out. Sakura saw this and stepped behind him and Naruto she didn't need, or want, the two fighting.
"Kiba, just calm down." She told him hoping he would listen to her. When she heard him stopping growling she knew she could relax, if only a little. He was still making a fist and in a fighting stance but she knew that she could trust him enough to not jump Naruto.
"Look, I appreciate you worrying about me, Naruto, but I'm fine." Sakura told her best friend. She was used to him and Sasuke being protective of her, she knew how to handle it.
"But…" Naruto tried to talk back but one look on Sakura's face told him not too.
"Just give it a rest, Naruto." Sasuke appeared walking up behind Naruto. He placed a hand on his friend's shoulder and looked to Sakura to Kiba. "Sorry about this, we just wanted to make sure everything was ok." He said holding his gaze to Kiba, who in return glared back at him.
"Like I said, everything is fine." Sakura felt like she didn't need to attack like a human shield anymore and stepped back to stand next to Kiba. "We were just talking and now we're getting ice cream. So you have nothing to worry about." She added praying they would listen and not follow them. She really didn't need them following her like the last time. Back in middle she and Shikamaru had to do a project for science class so they spent the day in the park. For half the day, Naruto and Sasuke followed them around until they were finally discovered by Shikamaru. She chased the two around the park until she finally caught them and beat the snot out of them and left them there in the park for the rest of the day.
"We believe you Sakura, but excuse us for not trusting this damn bully over here." Naruto looked at Kiba with a sneer. It wasn't that he hated Kiba; he was a cool guy when he wasn't beating up people, but he didn't trust any guy with Sakura other then himself and Sasuke.
"Look you guys don't have to worry, just go home." She told them hoping them would listen. Naruto wasn't helping her with his attempts to pick a fight with Kiba. And Kiba wasn't helping either, he kept moving closer to her and now he had his hand on her back and she could hear a low growl coming from him.
'This is so not my day.' Sakura thought hoping that a sudden storm would come, making them all just leave and go home. But that would be just too lucky for her. She would just have to deal and take matters into her own hands. So she did. She pulled Kiba's hand off her back and held it in her hand. She tried to ignore the warm feeling that passed through her body when she grabbed it. "Look, you guys be nice to Kiba. He and I are dating now so that means no trying to pick fights with him. Got it." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. She expected them to behave and if they didn't then they would have to deal with her and her wrath.
Sasuke seemed unfazed by this action but Naruto seemed totally surprised. His eyes and mouth were wide open to the point where they would pop off his face. For a single moment he was at a lost for words. It was a rare moment for Sasuke who would treasure that moment for a very long time.
"WHAT!?!?" He shouted looking at the two's conjoined hands. "How the hell did this happen? Sakura, why are you holding hands with this guy?! Is he threatening you? Do you want us to call the cops?! Should we…!"
Before he could even finish his rant Sasuke and Sakura and Kiba all hit Naruto to shut him up. Sakura and Sasuke hit him on the head while Kiba kicked him in the stomach.
"OW!" Naruto fell to the ground in pain. He was muttering about pain and how everyone always hits him.
"We'll be going now." Sasuke grabbed the back of Naruto's shirt and started to drag him off. "We'll see you two tomorrow then." He said his goodbyes and dragged a complaining Naruto off and out of the park.
"Oi! Sasuke, let me go!" Naruto was shouting trying to break free of Sasuke's grip but was failing.
"Just shut up for once, you loser." That was all Sasuke said as they exited the park.
-
Once the two boys were gone Sakura and Kiba just stood in silence once again, holding hands. They didn't know what to say about what had just taken place, mostly because Naruto made it weird. But there was also what Sakura had said. She knew that she made it sound like to her friends that her and Kiba were really going out, instead of…well she didn't know what they really were doing. This whole day was just one big confusing day and she just wanted to go home and go to sleep.
"So we're going out now?" Kiba turned to look at her. He had a small smirk on his face.
For some reason that smirk caused Sakura to blush a little. "Oh, shut up." She turned her head to the side so he wouldn't see her blushing.
She could hear him chucking to himself from behind her and his laugh caused her to smile. She didn't understand why but she enjoyed how his laugh sounded to her.
"Come on, let's go before the ice cream stand closes." She said pulling at his hand making him walk with her.
"Whatever you say." Was his reply and for some reason Sakura knew there was another smirk on his face. She didn't know how but somehow they went from almost going out to completely going out, something she was sure he was happy with.
"How can I help you two?" They walked up to the stand where the guy who was serving them gave them a polite smile.
"Two cones please." Sakura said retuning the smile.
"Ok, what'll ya have?" The guy asked them.
"Vanilla." Kiba gave his answer.
"Can I have Coffee with rainbow sprinkles?" Sakura asked the guy. She hoped he said yes, lately she would have to hunt down for that type of ice cream.
"Coming right up." The guy went to scoop up the two cones of ice cream for the two teens.
"Yay! They actually have it!" Sakura cheered throwing her free hand up, that held her bag, in the air. The end of her bag hit her in the forehead. "Stupid bag." She mumbled glaring at the bag that just hit her.
She heard Kiba chuckle again and was ready to tell him off when he reached over and took her bag from her hand and placed it over his own bag on his shoulder. He gave her a wide smile that showed off his canine teeth.
"Thanks." She returned this smile as well but it was brighter then the one she gave the ice cream guy. "You didn't have to do that." She said just as their ice cream arrived. She took her cone with her now free hand and licked some of the ice cream that was already dripping. "Yum."
"I wanted too." Kiba said reaching into his left pocket and pulled out his wallet paying for their ice cream.
"Hey, wait a minute." Sakura tried to let go of Kiba's hand so she could get her own wallet to pay for her ice cream but he wouldn't let go. "You didn't have to do that either." She told him as he took his own ice cream.
They walked out of the store, still holding hands, enjoying their ice cream. "Again, I wanted too. I am your boyfriend now so get use to it." He told her licking some drips of vanilla that were starting to drip down onto his hand.
'B-Boyfriend?! When did I make him my boyfriend?' She thought about this. 'Oh that's right. When Naruto was trying to pick a fight with him, I had to go and open my big mouth and mix everything up. Oh well, better just deal with it. Besides it's simpler and easier then before…I think.' She rolled her eyes at the thought going back to enjoying her ice cream. She was so happy that the stand had some; she made a mental note to go back there whenever she had a craving for this.
"I didn't know you liked coffee ice cream so much." Kiba said watching her eat her ice cream. She already had all the sprinkles off and had eaten most of the ice cream.
"I love it. It's been my favorite flavor for as long as I can remember." She replied finishing off the rest of the top part and started going for the cone.
"Really? I always figured you to be the chocolate type." He said taking a few more licks of his own.
"I do like chocolate, but coffee has always been my favorite. But it's such a hassle to find that most of the time I do eat chocolate." She told him having half her cone already gone. This was starting to turn into a good day for her. She was eating her favorite ice cream, holding hands with a guy that really likes her, and was enjoying herself.
They walked around the park for a little while, holding hands and talking about a few things. They talked about school, friends, and some memories that made the other laugh. When the sun started to set Sakura announced that she needed to head home before her mom started worrying about her. When she tried to let go again Kiba only shook his head no walked her home, the whole way he never let go of her hand.
It only took them a few minutes before they reached her house and Sakura was a little sad to say goodbye. She was really starting to enjoy herself.
"Well, this is me." She motioned to her house unlocking the gate and looked back at Kiba and then at her hand. "I kind of need this back." She lightly pulled at it smiling at the brown haired boy.
"I'll give it back under one condition." He said with a smile of his own.
"Oh? What's that?" She asked thinking what he wanted from her. 'He probably wants a kiss. If he does I'll just tell him to close his eyes and kiss his cheek.' She thought waiting for him to ask her for a kiss.
Instead he handed her back her bag and reached into his right pocket and pulled out his cell phone. "Give me your number." He said opening his phone. It was a light blue phone with a white and brown dog charm on it. He hand his thumb over the buttons waiting for her to tell him her number.
"Really? That's it?" She was a little surprised at his request. She thought for sure he would ask fro a kiss, Naruto always did when they were little and she thought since they were a like he would too. 'I guess even if he is like Naruto in some ways, he still is his own person.' She thought telling him what her cell was.
"Ok. Thanks." He gave her a bright smile as he out his cell back in his pocket.
"No problem." She smiled back and then looked back down at her hands. "So can I have it back?" She put their two hands up to his face.
"Hmm…" He put on a fake serious thinking face. "I guess so." He let his grip on her hand go and Sakura thought that he looked a little sad when they let go. "So, I'll see you tomorrow." He put his two hands in his pockets and turned to walk away.
Sakura put a hand on his shoulder, stopping him from moving away, and leaned forward to place a light kiss on his cheek. Even if he didn't ask for it, she felt like it was something she should do. "Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow." She waved goodbye and walked inside her house. She sighed once in and leaned against the door.
"YES!!!"
She started laughing as she heard the over excited Kiba running off down her street screaming 'Yes!' over and over. He was probably scaring all the neighbors with his shouting.
"I guess he's really happy because of the kiss." She giggled taking off her shoes. "And that was only the cheek. I wonder what he would be like if we kissed on the lips?" She thought about it for a moment before shaking the thoughts away from her now pink face. What was she doing thinking thoughts like these? She wasn't even sure if she liked him that way or not yet.
"I'm home!" Sakura shouted entering the kitchen where her mom was.
"Welcome home." Her mom greeted her placing their dinner on the table. Sakura's mom was almost basically what Sakura would look like when she would be a mom. She had pink hair like her daughter, but she kept it long and it reached her back. Sakura also got her eyes from her mom, though Sakura's eyes were a brighter green then her mom's.
"Yo!"
"Ahh!" Sakura shrieked turning around to face her uncle/homeroom teacher Kakashi. No on at school other then a few of her friends knew that Kakashi was her uncle. She didn't to give them anymore of a reason to hate her. They'd probably call her teacher's pet or something else like that. "Kakashi! What did I tell you about scaring me?!" Even though he was her uncle he told her never to call him that. He said it made him feel older then he really was.
"Sorry about that Sakura. It must have slipped my mind when I watching something very interesting." He said hiding his face in his favorite book. He walked over to the table and took a seat.
Even though his face was hidden, Sakura could still tell there was a smirk on his face. "What were you watching?" She asked walking over to the table herself. She didn't sit down because she knew that she still needed to change out of her uniform.
"Nothing really…" He looked up from his book, an evil glint in his visible eye. "Just you and Kiba Inuzuka holding hands, exchanging numbers, giving him a peck on the cheek. You know the usual." He said causally going back to his book.
Sakura felt her face erupted in a full blush. She couldn't believe that her uncle/teacher was watching her outside while she was with Kiba. "Why were you spying on us!?" She questioned looking at her uncle. It wasn't a secret that he was a total pervert.
"What? Can't a concerned uncle look after his favorite niece while she holds hands with the school's famous bully?" He was trying to either make this bad for her or make fun of her. She figured it was the latter.
"Well, I think it's a good that Sakura has a boyfriend, and there's nothing wrong with having one who has a little danger to his name." Sakura's mom, Mika, said taking a seat of her own at the table.
"R-Really? You mean you don't have a problem with me being with a guy who is basically our school's bully?" Sakura and Kakashi gave Mika a confused look. Weren't parents supposed to tell their daughter not to get involved with boys that could cause them problems and hurt them?
"Of course!" Mika said with a bright smile. "You may not know this Sakura, but your father was once a bully himself." Mika said to her daughter.
"Dad? Really?" Sakura found that hard to believe. She knew her dad and how much of a softy he was, especially when it came to her. No way could he have once been a bully. "Sorry, but I can't believe that mom. I mean, dad is too much of a softy to ever beat up a person." Her father was a professor at a local college so he wasn't home yet to defend himself.
"Well maybe now, but at one time he would walk down the halls of our school and everyone would run away in terror." Mika said remembering her high schools days.
Sakura looked at her mom and then at Kakashi. "It's true." He put down the book. "At one point, you father was almost exactly like Kiba. The only differences was when he asked your mom out he did it during school were everyone saw them."
"Really?" Sakura looked back at her mom that was blushing now. Suddenly she was glad that Kiba had asked her through a note. She didn't know what she would have done if he had asked her out in front of everyone.
"Oh yes." Mika said blushing at her memories. "I was so embarrassed that I ran away whenever I saw your father. But as you know, your father is a stubborn one and he followed me everywhere until I finally agreed to go out with him."
Sakura gave her mom a weird look. "And that didn't freak you out?" She knew if Kiba did that to her she would probably scream and run until he left her alone. And if that didn't work she would knock him out and get a restraining order.
"Well at first, but as time passed I started to like the attention and slowly I began to fall in live with your father." Mika said sighing a content sigh.
"But mom, didn't you have to quit school because you got pregnant when you were like eighteen?" Sakura asked trying to remember what it was that her parents told her. It was their first time discussing sex and they had told her that story from their past. She avoided her parents like the plague for a week after that, staying over at Hinata's. When Hinata's dad questioned her why she was staying over for so long, she told him what her parents had told her and he let her stay and extra week.
"Well yes, but we had you and were able to create so many precious memories together." She said smiling happily. "You see dating a bully can be a good thing. You can have beautiful memories together. You never know Sakura, you and Kiba might end up just like your father and me." Mika added missing Kakashi freeze up in his seat.
Sakura however didn't. "Kakashi?" She gave him a worried glance.
He looked up at her and had another evil glint in his eye. "I think I'll have a little chat with Kiba tomorrow at school." He said in a very low but scary voice.
Sakura froze up scared for Kiba at what Kakashi might say, or do, to him. "R-Right." She knew better to argue with him and ran up to her room before he decided he wanted to talk to her too. She changed into a pair of black shorts and a light pink tank top and went down stares for dinner.
They were half way into dinner when Sakura's father, Munto, came home. He was all smiles until Kakashi 'accidentally' announced that Sakura had a boyfriend. She made sure to give him a hard kick in the shins after that. Of course her father, being more over protective then Naruto and Sasuke, said she couldn't date him without him meeting who was dating "His Precious And Only Pure Daughter". Sometimes she felt like her dad was reading something from a script.
After dinner Sakura ran back up to her room, before her dad or anyone else asked her about Kiba. She jumped and laid down on her bed, looking at the walls of her room and enjoying the feeling of comfort she got from it. Her bed was in her mind the comfiest in the house and she loved how it felt to her. Her sheets were a dark pink with some red mixed in. Her room was painted in a light blue with a closet, dresser, desk that had her laptop and supplies on it. A nightstand next to her bed that had a pink alarm clock, a pink lamp, and her light blue phone.
She rolled over and reached out to look at her phone. 'Kiba has the same type of phone that I do.' She gave a small smile at the thought. She wondered if he did that on purpose or if it was just a coincidence.
She almost dropped her phone when it started vibrating in her hand, saying she was receiving a text message. She figured that it was probably Sasuke or Naruto, asking what happened today in the park. She flipped open the phone and looked at an unfamiliar number. She had thoughts of deleting it, thinking it was just some stupid prank, but something told her that it wasn't. She opened the message and smiled at what she read.
(A/N: Kiba Texts. Sakura Text. )
'Hey. It's Kiba, realized that you didn't have my number so I figured I better text you so you'd have it. So here it is! You better save it because I'm checking your phone tomorrow! =)'
Sakura giggled as she read the message saving the number to her phone.
'It's saved, now I just need a pic of you to put on as the I.D.'
She hit send and waited for a reply. She didn't have to wait long. A reply came with a picture of Kiba in it. In the picture he was grinning showing off his canine teeth again and had a big dog sitting in his lap. The dog looked like it was smiling into the camera.
'So cute! I love your dog? Is he actually smiling?'
She looked over the picture again and loved how soft and cuddly the dog looked. She just wanted to hug it.
'Yeah. His name's Akamaru. He loves getting his picture taken.'
She was liking this dog more and more. She wanted to see him in person and play with it.
'Aw. I wanna meet him!'
She always wanted a dog but her parents would never let her have one. Mostly because Kakashi had so many of his own that he trained that they figured he would bring over one or more for her to play with.
'Ok! One day after school you can come over and I'll introduce you to him. He says that he's dying to meet you.'
Sakura couldn't help but smile at this. Akamaru was dying to meet her, huh? Yeah right, he probably just wanted her over so she could meet his family. She laughed at his attempt to hide the truth.
'Let's pick a day when we don't have a lot of homework. I get the feeling I'll be playing with Akamaru a lot when I get there.'
She was really saying that she would probably be spending most of the day over there and she didn't want to have to worry about homework. Speaking of meeting people, she remembered what her dad said earlier.
'Oh, I almost forgot. My dad said that if you want to date me then you have to come over one of these days to meet him.'
She had just closed the phone when the reply came.
'I'll come over tomorrow.'
She was a little surprised at, not only how fast the reply was, but at what he wrote. Why would he want to meet her parents so soon? Don't most boyfriends dread the thought of meeting their girlfriend's parents?
'It doesn't have to be tomorrow. He didn't pick a day he just said soon.'
She typed back thinking he would change his mind.
'Don't care. I'll come over tomorrow and introduce myself before he says you can't see me.'
'I don't want that. We just started dating, and I don't wanna have to break up so soon. I like you to much to stop this easily!'
Sakura felt her face heat up at this text. She never knew that Kiba could be so sweet, she was used to the rough Kiba that would beat up anyone who tried to pick a fight with him.
'Ok. I'll tell them about tomorrow. Oh, by the way, you might want to skip homeroom tomorrow. Kakashi-sensei wants to have a private talk with you.'
She figured she give him a warning before Kakashi got to him.
'Why? What'd I do? Did he find out about the toilet bomb thing!?'
Sakura started laughing when she read the reply. She had a feeling it was him who caused that. Last week during a big state test, all the toilets in the teachers lounge exploded flooding the school and canceling the state test.
'That was you? I knew it!'
She wondered what he would say to her text.
'How'd you know it was me and not someone else? Like Naruto? He's dumb enough to do something like that.'
She couldn't agree more. There was a reason why he was called the biggest knuckle-head in middle school.
'Naruto's not smart enough to do something like that without getting caught.'
She wrote knowing the sad truth. If Naruto had done it he probably would have been cheering once they were outside, where a teacher could hear them, at how his plan was a success. Sometimes he could be such a moron.
'True. So why does dear old Kakashi want to talk to me?'
She wondered if she should tell him about Kakashi being her uncle. She might as well. They were kind of together now and he didn't seem like the type who would make fun of her because of it.
'Because he's my uncle and he saw us today when you dropped me off home.'
She wasn't surprised at how fast the reply came this time.
'He's your uncle?! NO WAY!? Whoa. I guess that's why he's always near you. I always thought he was just some old pervert who liked high school girls.'
She gave a weak laugh at the screen. If he only knew how right he really was.
'Yeah, well…just be careful. Kakashi can be really scary when he has one of his talks with people.'
She replied thinking over every talk he's ever had and what it did to the students that were unlucky enough to have them.
'How scary can it be?'
She knew exactly what to type in next.
'Remember that kid Zaku you always used to fight with?'
She wondered if he would remember him. It's been almost a year now since he left school.
'Yeah, I remember the bastard. He used to follow you around cause he wanted to get in your pants! I used to beat him up whenever he spoke about you. I still hate the guy.'
So it looked like he remembered him. She found it sweet how he helped her from the guy. She would have to remember to thank him for it later.
'Well there's a reason why he transferred so fast. Kakashi had a little talk with him one day and the same day Zaku was already in the next town.'
She remembered that day. She saw Kakashi take Zaku behind the school to talk to him and then he reappeared not ten minutes later with a very frighten looking Zaku. She's never seen anyone other then Rock Lee run as fast as Zaku did that day to get away.
'Seriously? Maybe I should come prepared tomorrow…'
Sakura wondered how he could do that. What could he do that would help prepare him for Kakashi's talk?
'What do you mean?'
She waited for a response. She wanted to know how he would prepare himself for Kakashi. So far she knew no way of doing so.
'I got the latest issue of that book he's always reading in class. My sis saved the guy who writes it dog a few years back and he's always sending us the latest copy of his books before they reach the stores. I'll just give Kakashi-sensei the book and he'll forget all about his talk. Hell, he might even forget about going to homeroom.'
Sakura laughed completely agreeing with what he wrote. Kakashi would probably curl up in the nearest corner to read the book, forgetting about the students and everything else around him.
'Yeah, you're probably right. I can see him in the corner rocking back and forth saying "My Precious" over and over again.'
She laughed at the mental image of her uncle.
'Lmao. Kakashi-sensei really is a weird guy. But he's still cool. He's the only teacher at the school that won't send me to the principles office after a fight.'
Sakura read over his text and realized that he was right. Kakashi always sends the guys who fight him to the office, never Kiba himself. She wondered why?
"Maybe it's because Kiba never starts the fight?" She questioned out loud. She was probably the only person at school, other then Kakashi, that knew Kiba never starts the fights. The guys are always the one who picks the fights with him, he just ends them. It was because of that that gave him his reputation as a bully.
'Wow. I never knew that. Guess Kakashi is smarter then I give him credit for. /Yawn!/ Well I'm gonna go to bed now. Good night!'
She got under the covers and laid her head on the pillow just as a reply came in. She opened the phone and looked at the text.
'Night Sakura. Sleep tight! =)'
'Thanks! 3'
She closed her phone and rolled over to face the wall. She brought up her hand to her face and smiled, it was the same hand that she used to hold hands with Kiba today. She looked it over and smiled even more.

(Hey, I'm sorry if this update took a little while. I couldn't get this one scene right and it was driving me crazy. It was when they were in the ice cream stand. I couldn't make it fit right until a little while ago. Sorry! Next one will be up faster! I promise! Also if you guys have any ideas for my story go ahead and tell me. I love reading some of the ideas you guys may have.)
