Summery: Kiba attempts to make Shino laugh.

A/N: This one was inspired by a Scrubs episode! Man, I love that show. Lol. So don't get at me for taking off the show, I thought it would be funny to use as a situation between Shino and Kiba. Also! It was inspired by my other HP fic; 'No Sex for Sirius'. :)

Enjoy!

The Art of Laughter

Kiba doubled over, laughing loudly at his own joke, as Shino sat in silence, shaking his head at the dog-nin.

"Oh, come on, that was funny!" Kiba exclaimed, his laughter dying down, grinning at his friend imploringly.

Shino gave him a disinterested look, "No, it really wasn't." he replied.

Kiba frowned, "All right, all right... Oh! I know, I've got a good one!" He practically jumped up and down from his spot sitting in front of Shino with his legs crossed.

Shino sighed, "Just give it up Kiba."

Kiba shook his head, "No way! I will teach you the art of laughter!"

Shino had no idea where this little obsession of Kiba's had come from, but ever since last week, Kiba had been pestering him with supposedly funny 'quips' and 'jokes', all the while desperately trying to get Shino to laugh.

Shino sighed with annoyance.

Kiba just grinned, "You're sure to laugh at this one!" He promised.

Shino turned his attention back to him, showing he was listening, as Kiba smiled wider.

"Ok, so, this duck walks into a bar-"

"What was a duck doing in a bar?" Shino interrupted, looking at Kiba questioningly.

Kiba sighed irritably, "Just let me finish, ok? Right... So the duck goes into the bar, and just as he's about to leave-"

"Leave? he only just got there." Shino stated, interrupting again.

Kiba twitched.

"Anyway, as he's about to leave the Bartender asks 'how would you like to Pay?'-"

"Pay? He didn't buy anything." Shino stated accusingly.

"Shino, would you shut up?! Let me finish!" Kiba yelled, glaring.

Shino grinned in amusement under his collar, he loved teasing Kiba. "Go on." he agreed.

Kiba breathed calmly, "Right, and the bartender asks 'how do you want to pay?' and the Duck says... he says... um... damn it! Shino, you made me forget!"

Shino laughed in his mind at how cute Kiba could be when he was mad, but was surprised as Kiba flung himself on the taller man, landing in his lap, and pinning him to the tree he was leaning against. Shino took a hold on Kiba's hips as the dog-nin placed his lips firmly over Shino's, and promptly plunged his toungue into Shino's mouth, caressing and exploring. Shino gasped silently as he felt Kiba break away to lick his neck possessively, and proceed to kiss along his jaw-line.

Shino moaned as Kiba pulled back, and looked at the smaller boy questioningly, as Kiba leaned forward and whispered in his ear;

"No more sex."

Shino's eyes widened with sudden peril, "Why? Because I made you forget the joke? Put it on my bill! That was the punch line!"

Kiba shook his head that it was too late. "No more sex." he repeated, shrugging.
