SakuKiba Drabble #8
~Furry Endeavors~
毛皮のような努力
Haruno Sakura tiptoed her way through a narrow strip of murky, red brick alley squished in-between two houses, cautious not to be seen. All the while her mind couldn't exactly wrap around the logic of Inuzuka Kiba's—yes, the dog ninja—possible attraction to her!
The pinkette hoped she worded it right. Indeed, Kiba liked Sakura—or worse, loved her. The whole idea of it seemed absurd, fascinating, and…unfortunately for Sakura, twisted. And she had found out minutes ago after a mission debriefing with Team 7 and 8. It didn't help at all either that Naruto was a walking blabbering machine.
"KIBA LIKES SAKURA!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, and thankfully Sakura seized that chance in the Hokage Tower to pummel him into the ground, resulting in badly bruised cheeks, a swollen face and…you know, the entire ensemble, not to mention Naruto was furious at the same time. "KIBA likes MY Sakura-chan? Why that (insert random swear word here)—!"
When the hell did Kiba start liking me, out of all the people living in Konoha? Did he start noticing me since, what, two and a half years ago? We were genin! I thought he liked Hinata, or Ino, or Tenten, or…
This was going to be so difficult. Kiba was definitely unpredictable; probably more unreadable than Sasuke, although the Inuzuka reminded her greatly of the blonde, loud, obnoxious dobe—who was, obviously, Naruto!
She was serious: Kiba was an insane prankster, a flirt, an impossible show-off, a rapid talker (AHAH, Naruto right there) and etcetera. Besides that, Sakura wasn't that surprised Naruto and Kiba happened to appear like they were glued to the hip every time she saw them. They were practically like long-lost twins!
However, Sakura did have to admit that Kiba—and to her horror— was an attractive guy…even the more so as mysterious as Shino, as cute as a dog (cough, uncanny or what?), and charming. Akamaru was a bonus to his bouncy personality, and his fanged grin, tan skin, body (don't even go there), brown slit-pupiled eyes and messy dark hair were 'hot' enough for even Ino, the top matchmaker and seductress of the village, to stalk after—unless she'd already attached herself to a certain male teammate; hint, he was the laziest guy Sakura had ever met.
You never know, the two have been incredibly close ever since they were in diapers, so yeah, no doubt about that.
Sakura's lips pursed tightly together, tiny droplets of sweat beginning to form beneath her brows as she navigated her way through the alley, boots squishing the damp muddy ground under her. And no, she wasn't perspiring due to excitement, no way.
It was how nervous she was. Kami, please help me! What if Kiba sees me here? He might get the wrong idea-
"Sakura?" A deep voice split the awkward conflicts she was mentally having.
Shoot.
She whirled around instantly, groping the brick wall for balance and painlessly trying to squint her way through the dimness of the dark alley she was in. Okay, ask me again why I even took this path in the first place! I'm crazy.
Still, who was that a few paces behind her? Sakura mentally blanched as a huge figure matted with white fur behind the tall guy was an utter dead giveaway. It's Kiba. An intense heat engulfed her immediately, and she started to find it hard simply breathing.
"Kiba, w-what are you doing here?" Sakura questioned, her voice sounding a little too timid as she made small steps towards him, arms folded behind her back. Great, now she was acting like Hinata! She didn't like Kiba back though…right? Or was she wrong?
God.
Kiba laughed, reaching up to scratch his hair as Akamaru barked at her happily, tail wagging and drooling tongue hanging out. Aw!
"I was going to ask you the same thing! Why are you hiding here?" Sakura blushed deeply, involuntarily fingering her cherry pink strands of hair. What do I freaking say?
"Uh, I was just hiding from Naruto, that's all," she replied, tone slightly shaky. Damn, I hope he doesn't think I'm a giggly girl! Attempting to act like the Sakura everybody knew quite well: herself, she stood up straighter as she cocked out a hip, planting one gloved hand on it and gazing at Kiba. She had to feel confident. She always is.
Gah, a gaze doesn't do it! What is UP with you?
"Haha, I see. The idiot keeps on doing stuff, huh?" Kiba, amused, moved forward, the distance between them roughly around one to two meters and by instinct her heart thudded rapidly inside her chest. Why am I feeling like this? I don't-
"You know, Sakura-"
Sakura quickly took one step back, and as her vision adjusted to the dark of the alley (wow, her fault they were in an alley, and who knows what he might try), she could make out the intent, burning stare of Kiba's chocolate eyes on her, while Akamaru did nothing but stay back outside the alley to watch his master.
Akamaru, do something! Sakura silently pleaded in her head, but no duh the enormous canine wasn't going to budge from his spot there, hell, even know what she was thinking at all. He was actually observing them? Oh, please not the DOG! She was hopeful for a moment, other than thinking how smart Akamaru was, that he could—'disrupt' what was happening between them.
No, no chance there then.
"Kiba, what are you doing…?" Sakura trailed off, air ominously caught in her throat as he unexpectedly pinned her to the cement wall, and she could tell that Kiba's right arm was paralleled alongside her face as it pressed against the brick behind her, while his other free hand was inside his pocket.
Oh my god, is he going to do something? This isn't…ethical!
The Haruno's breathing quickened simultaneously as she fought the strong impulse to both hit him in the balls and shove him away from her to make an escape, yet the skill of her senses heightened indefinitely the moment he pinned her.
Truthfully, she didn't want to hurt Kiba—literally and figuratively, but everything was happening so fast.
Kiba's warm breath fanned her face as he spoke, and her eyelids soon drooped half-way, looking up at him from beneath her thick lashes. Little did he know that Sakura's right hand, which he couldn't see, was tightly clenched into a threatening fist, in case he tried to-
"I think everybody knows now about how I feel about you, thanks to the blonde blockhead, but…"
To Sakura's shock, Kiba leaned in closer, his lips hovering around where her ear was, and she felt as if a ton of ice-cold water had been drenched on top of her, besides her stomach tying into endless knots. She shouldn't have been here. He shouldn't have seen her!
"…it's true though. I like you, Sakura. A lot. " His husky whisper and how dangerously close his mouth was to clearly making contact with her neck sent small tremors through her spine, and warm needles pricked her pale skin everywhere.
Sakura's brain was just blank of anything to say to him in return. She couldn't believe it. No, she can't.
Her lips moved, but no words spilled out.
Kiba chuckled, and the utmost surprise of hearing him chuckle like that for the very first time caught her in a stupor. Sakura was frozen to the spot, her face enveloped in a deep red. He's-
She stayed still once again as Kiba moved a mere inch closer to her and her body, therefore his tan face was centimeters away from hers. Worse, she found it hard to see perfectly in the dark alley.
"Speechless, aren't you? Seriously Sakura, I was almost convinced you would kill me-"
Her breath hitched. Now her plan involving 'partly violent actions' was thrown immediately out the window!
"-but I always knew you were hot. Jeez, pink hair? Green eyes? It's all…attractive to me," Kiba told her, and his tone remained husky. Was this his supposed flirting charm? Sakura gave a teeny jump when he mentioned she was hot, and he managed to run a hand gently through her pink locks. HOT? Really? She didn't know if she should consider her situation a dream, or reality, but her neurons were gathering to the second option. No-
"K-kiba, I…"
"OH MY FREAKING GOD!"
They both yelped with a start at the sudden outburst of a highly-pitched squeal Sakura would've recognized anywhere, their heads whipping towards the opening of the alley, where yellow sunlight poured onto the intruder and company, illuminating their bouncing forms and blinding her a bit due to being immersed in the dark for quite a while.
She attempted to slip out of the position Kiba held her in with much difficulty (darn IT), but he wouldn't let her. Sakura's veins throbbed painfully against her temples. This was all too much…
"INO! What the hell are you doing here?" Kiba roared at the bubbly blonde kunoichi who just had to intervene. Sakura was speechless. Again. She couldn't move.
"You two were getting it on, I see?"
"HELL YES, and you just had to come ba-"
"KIBA! What is Sakura-chan DOING with you?" Naruto!
"It's NOT what you think, baka-!"
"Hm, really? Then it was such a drag to even come here and see you two weren't exactly 'getting it on'-"
"SHIKAMARU! Didn't you see them? Sakura was like this and Kiba was like that-"
"Ino's right, 'ya know." Kiba's voice contained a smug, flirty, happy tone that Sakura would have liked to choke directly out of his trachea, but for some reason it was as if she'd gone into catatonic shock. Only her ears were functional. Sakura, move!
"KIBA! Then you WERE like this and that with Sakura-chan? "
"The hell I was! I told her she's a hot chick 'cause she is, right? And I was crazily desperate to see if she really liked me back-"
"Stop starting your sentences with 'hell', Kiba-"
"SHUT UP, genius!"
Of course, apparently nothing they had said seemed to register within the medical kunoichi's head, for she was too deeply shocked that she had fainted. She'd blacked out. Fortunately, she couldn't hear all four voices shouting in unison as a pink-tinted Sakura crumpled to the ground, startling the passing villagers out of their wits.
"SAKURA!"
"SAKURA-CHAN! Oi, Sakura-chan, can you hear me? Dammit, I'm here! SAKURA-CHAN!-"
"SAKURA, you like me back too, right?-"
Bonk! Whack!
"IDIOTS. Forehead, please wake up! WAKE UP! This is BOTH of you guys' fault!"
"This is so troublesome."
Hehehehe XD. I have nothing to say. I think it was tooo longgg to even be considered a DRABBLE, so instead think of this as a one-shot! GOMEN, I was on a roll today :3. Filipinochick I hoped you liked it! Although I'm positive you probably didn't xP Please review, whether you like the couple or not. Hehe, remember what I said, this drabble collection welcomes all kinds of pairings :D. Good? Bad? So-so?
HAPPY SUMMER everyone! And expect faster updates now! I'm halfway through writing Math. Love Ch. 10 AND I'm done Chapter 11 lol (YES, finally!) so I'll also keep you posted on that!
