Thanks for reading and reviewing so far. Based on popular demand, and a feeling of incompleteness, here's the fourth chapter. This isn't the end of it though. Enjoy.
Usual disclaimer here.
Hinata leaned in close to Shino as she reached, with her left hand, towards his sunglasses. About half way to its goal, Hinata's hand was stopped by Shino's left hand. A quick look confirmed that Shino's left sleeve was empty and his arm was sticking out the front of his coat.
Hinata's free hand streaked forward to hit a pressure point on his wrist. This action wouldn't hurt him, but it would cause his fingers to lose mobility temporarily. It was a rather shortsighted move though, because it caused his fingers to seize around her hand. After several futile attempts to free her hand, Hinata shrugged philosophically and dove forwards towards Shino.
Her forward movement was stopped by Shino's right arm. His forearm was placed across her upper chest. With both arms free of his coat Shino began to sit up, revealing more and more of his bare chest.
Hinata could feel her face heating up and lost several precious seconds fighting off the urge to faint.
" Sh-Shino kun," she stuttered, shaking her head to clear it. She then leaned her weight forward onto Shino's right arm as she tightened her hold on shi left. This action caused his right arm to be captured between their chests and his left hand to become nestled between her breasts.
Absently Hinata noted the interesting shade of pink that Shino turned. I've never seen Shino blush before. This thought caused Hinata to grin as her free hand grabbed hold of Shino's glasses and gently pulled them off.
Just in time too, because the second the glasses cleared Shino's face, was the second the jutsu Hinata used wore off. Shino's bugs swarmed over the two ninjas and Hinata giggled at the unfamiliar sensation of thousands of little legs crawling across her body.
When the last of the bugs disappeared into Shino's body, Hinata looked up into Shino's eyes. Or she would have, if he weren't holding them tightly shut.
"Shino kun?" Hinata asked quietly, concerned over his actions.
"I apologize Hinata chan. I cannot allow you to see my eyes right now," Shino's voice was serene as always, but there was an underlying emotion that she couldn't identify.
"What's wrong?"
"My eyes are very sensitive to the light," he explained.
Hinata didn't say anything. Finally after several minutes of silence she placed his sunglasses into his hand. "You'll show me when it's safe," With those words, Hinata climbed off Shino's lap and made her way back to Kiba and Kurenai sensei. She would have gotten further if Shino's hand wasn't still wrapped tightly around hers.
