Hinata and Kiba walked downstairs, to find the boys tied up, with annoyed girls standing above them. Hinata gasped, cover her mouth.
"What happened?" She asked. Azure looked over at Hinata. "Uhh... We were playing a game?" Kiba tried his best to stop laughing, but failed. "And what? Did they lose to you? What game has to do with tying people?" He asked.
Tenten nervously chuckled, coming out of the hallway, where she was. "Heh... found another one..." Hinata and Kiba looked at her, and covered their mouths.
Tenten was dragging Neji behind her, who was in the same state as the other boys. Hinata giggled, and Kiba facepalmed, feeling bad for the other boys. "O-Okay, girls, what game were you playing?"
Ino giggled, holding up a peace sign. "Catch the Mouse!" She said, cheerfully. Hinata and Kiba gulped, happy they were upstairs at the time this game started.
"And we were dumb enough to be the mouse..." Shikamaru said. Sakura looked at the two, who were standing awfully close to each other. "So, what did you two talk about?" She asked, innocently.
Kiba and Hinata slowly glanced at eachother, before disappearing. Temari laughed, scratching the back of her head. "You know, sometimes I hate that we ninjas are able to make fast disappearences."
The boys squirmed, trying to break free of the robe that kept them down, but the girls had tied it extremely tight. "Can you let us go?" Sai asked. The girls eyes widened, and they untied the boys with ease.
Azure laughed. "Heh, sorry boys! Well, I'm going to go get an explanation from Hinata. Bye!" She said, before quickly jumping out a nearby window.
Azure leaped through the town, looking for a dark-blue haired girl, possibly walking around with Kiba. Azure spotted her, sitting on a bench, alone. She carefully walked up behind her, hearing her small sniffles.
She stepped on a twig, causing Hinata to sharply turn her head. "Uh- Hey there Hinata. Where's Kiba?" She asked, sitting beside the Hyuga. "Oh, I, uh, told him to go home..." She said, quietly. Azure nodded. "Ah... Can you explain to me why you're crying?" She asked.
Hinata looked down. "Promise not to tell anyone?" Hinata looked over at Azure with teary eyes. "Of course, Hina. Why would I tell anyone? I've been your best friend since we were 11." Hinata gave her a weak smile, before looking down, at her lap.
"L-Last week, Kiba told me he loved me." Hinata stated. Azure gave her a bright smile. "Hina, that's great! But... Why are you crying?" Hinata shook her head, and tightly closed her eyes, forcing her tears to fall.
"B-Because... I think I love him too..." Hinata shoved her face down to her hands and cried. Azure was slightly confused. "Isn't that a good thing?" Hinata shook her head, which was still in her hands.
Azure could hear Hinata sniffling, before answering. "Today he told me... he was kidding... t-that he didn't l-love me..." Azure's eyes widened in both shock and anger. She gave her friend a hug, and felt her shirt get wet from tears.
"Shh... It's okay..." She said, rubbing her back. She let go of Hinata, keeping her at arms length. "You know what? We're going to confront that asshole!" Hinata winced at her choice of words. "He should know what he has when he has it! There is no way, that I'm letting my friend sit out here and cry over a man."
Hinata tried to talk, but Azure continued. "Let's go!" She said, before grabbing Hinata's arm. They were at Kiba's doorstep, before Hinata stepped back. "I-I can't face him..." She whimpered. Azure sighed, and looked at the heartbroken Hyuga. "That's fine. Go hide in a bush or something, I'll talk to him."
Hinata gave her another weak smile, before walking away, to a nearby tree. She watched as Azure knocked on the door. It took a few seconds, but a girl answered the door. She had a tight ponytail and the same red markings on her cheeks as Kiba.
Azure and the girl talked for a bit before Azure thanked her, and walked away.
"Kiba isn't home. But she said the Akamaru was around back if we wanted him to sniff him out." Hinata nodded, and they walked to their backyard. Akamaru sniffed the air, and immediately pounced on Hinata. "H-Hey there, Akamaru!" Hinata giggled as she felt Akamaru's tongue lick her face.
"Can you help us find Kiba?" She asked him. Akamaru barked, as if saying yes. Hinata and Azure jumped on his back, and Akamaru ran off, sniffing.
"Do you smell him, Akamaru?" Hinata whispered to the dog. Akamaru sniffed the ground, and stopped running. He walked around a bit, before raising his head in a different direction.
Akamaru started to run towards that direction, and Hinata knew the path. "I think he's at Team 8's training ground..." Hinata told Azure. Akamaru skidded to a stop, as they saw Kiba, pounding a training dummy.
He hit the dummy in it's stomach, breaking through it, and breaking the post it was connected to. Azure saw an unusual aura around Kiba. It was unlike his normally wild one, but this one was... It was angry, sad and depressing...
Hinata and Azure stayed in the spot they were crouching in, when they saw a girl coming from behind Kiba. He had obviously been oblivious to this, and reached back to punch the next dummy, and elbowed her in the face.
Hinata and Azure covered their mouths, nearly letting a gasp escape. They just watched as Kiba turned around, and sat beside the girl, whose nose was bleeding. Kiba apologized, before helping the girl up.
After a while her nose stopped bleeding, and she wiped it with a cloth she had in her bag. Azure recognized her as one of the medical nin's of Konoha. The girl stared at Kiba for a few seconds, before leaning in.
Before he knew it, the girls lips were on his, and her arms gripping his. Hinata watched in horror, for Kiba had not done anything to pull away. Azure felt mad, as smoke descended from her eye. Hinata whimpered, crying, before running away, with Akamaru following her.
But Azure stayed, wanting to get some... business taking cared of. Azure jumped out of her hiding spot, and hit the girl with a ball of flame. Kiba looked at Azure with widened eyes.
Azure glared at Kiba, before stomping up to him. She pointed a finger at him, "You son of a bitch!" She yelled, before slapping the Inuzuka. "Do you realise what you just put Hinata through? First you tell her you love her, get her hopes up. Then you tell her you were kidding and broke her heart? And now your kissing another girl?! You're a fucking idiot!" She cursed, as Kiba slowly straightened his back, still holding his now red cheek.
"But she-" He tried to say something, but was quickly interrupted. "No! I expect you to make it up to Hinata! She has to marry a fucking dumbass in three days! And the one who broke her heart! You better have the best vows Hinata has ever freaking heard, because just a small sorry won't cover it!"
Azure punched his face, before running off to find Hinata. From the corner of her eye, she could see the medical nin bitching about what had just happened.
She found her sitting at a tree, with her head in her arms. Azure looked around, and saw Tenten, Temari, Sakura, Ino and Situri walking towards her, with concerned faces.
They got to her at the same time, and kneeled down beside her. "Hinata... Are you okay?" Tenten asked, rubbing her shoulder. They saw the slight movement of her head, indicating she was not okay. "Azure... Do you know what happened?" Azure slowly nodded.
"Kiba is an idiot..." She mumbled, letting the girls partially know what's going on. Azure explained to the girls what happened, and their reactions were suspected.
Sakura punched the ground, Ino looked mad, Temari looked down right furious, and Tenten was holding a kunai very tightly.
Three Days Later
Hinata looked at herself in the mirror. She was beautiful, that's for sure, but she sure as hell didn't feel like it. Kiba and Hinata hasn't made any form of contact since that day.
Azure, and Tenten were behind her, looking both happy, and sad. Happy, because their best friend was getting married to the one she loves, sad, because the one she loves doesn't return his feelings.
Hinata had only let Azure and Tenten in the dressing room, because she has known them longer, and honestly, she trusted them more than she did the other girls.
Hinata shook her head, sadly, and sat down. "I-I don't deserve to be Kiba's wife... He should get the girl that he loves. Not some girl he was put in an arranged marriage with." She said, turning her body around, to face the girls.
"You don't deserve it? It's more like he doesn't deserve this. You're a kind, strong and beautiful woman, who Kiba is lucky to even be able to talk to. Like you said before, get it over with. It's only a year." Tenten reassured her.
"Thanks you two, but... I... I just want Kiba's first wife to be his last wife. But that obviously isn't happening."
Azure sighed, and looked at the clock, before staring at Hinata. "Come on. You're going to be summoned soon. Wipe those tears and put on a smile?" She said, trying to help. Hinata put on an obviously fake smile, and wiped her tears.
Situri opened the door slightly. "Hinata, your presence is needed now. Your father is waiting out here to walk you up the aisle." The redhead gave Hinata a reassuring smile, before exiting the room.
Hinata sighed, and walked out the door, with Tenten and Azure following her. They had let Moegi and Hanabi be the flower girls, being the same age.
The doors at the end of the chapel opened, and revealed the flower girls, who started walking, throwing flowers behind them. Then, out came Hinata and Hiashi. Hinata felt awkward and tense, to see Kiba staring at her with such intensity.
Stepping up to the podium, Hinata gulped, and stood before Kiba. The priest spoke.
"We are gathered here today, to bring these two together, in holy matrimony." He began. "Kiba, your vows." Hinata glanced at Kiba, who looked just as nervous as she felt.
"Hinata... Even though I have not been there for you, when I should have, and this is an arranged marriage, I promise, I will try my very best to not hurt you, more than I already have." (I am so sorry XD) Hinata felt tears threatening to fall, but she didn't let them.
"Hinata, your vows." Hinata nodded, and sighed.
"Kiba, ever since we were 11, I watched you grow up. Even though that was when we weren't on our best terms, I still wanted to be beside. As a friend. Now that I'm beside you, marrying you, I've..." Hinata blushed, but kept going. "I've realised I have loved you."
Everyone gasped, but Kiba stayed quiet. Hinata observed Kiba. His eyes were wide, lips partly opened, hands trembling, feet tucked together...
"Well, before these two say 'I do', does anyone object of their marriage?" The priest asked.
There was a moment of silence, and no one objected. "Alright then. Do you, Kiba Inuzuka, accept Hinata Hyuga as your wife? To have and to hold, for better or for worse. For richer or for poor, sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?"
Kiba nodded. "I do." The priest looked at Hinata, who was shaking.
"Do you, Hinata Hyuga, accept Kiba Inuzuka as your husband? To have and to hold, for better or for worse. For richer or for poor, sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?"
"I do." The priest smiled slightly, pushing his glasses up. "Well then. You may kiss the bride."
Kiba and Hinata gulped, before leaning in. The kiss was short, but sweet. Although, both probably wouldn't admit that they liked it.
The pulled back, blushing red. The awkwardly walked down the aisle, leaving the building, with their friends whooping. Hinata turned to Kiba.
"The party is at seven..." She said, quietly. Kiba sighed. "I know that." She looked down, and fidgeted with her fingers.
"You look great." Kiba said, in the car that was waiting for them. Hinata felt 15 again, stuttering and being shy. "O-Oh... T-Thank you, K-Kiba..." She said. She looked at him, from the corner of her eyes. "Y-You look n-nice too..."
Kiba turned red and stared at the stuttering girl. "Well, you can get ready for tonight. I'll come by at 6:30." Kiba said, as they stopped at the Hyuga compound. "T-Thank you, Kiba." She bowed, before running into her house, and slamming the door behind her.
Hinata was home alone, because they were the first ones to leave the wedding. She slid down against her door, and looked down at her wedding dress. She looked up, and screamed at what she saw.
Okay, I'm tired. I'm done. Just wait until chapter 11.
I don't own Naruto.
Kiba: What? We don't get to talk?
Me: Remember what I said last time... Insult me and I will delibrately kill you, slowly and painfully. I mean it.
Kiba: ...
Love you!
