Somehow Sai became waifu material. Everyone's starting to want Kiba for themselves now. Oh dear.
A huge thank you to Alvaro who has agreed to edit this for me. That way all those silly grammar errors and typos that have been popping up (I will be editing all of those soon) will be eradicated in future! Yosh!
Kiba walked into Sai's living area the next morning to see the artist in the kitchenette, cooking breakfast for them. The pale shinobi was wearing nothing but an apron, though. Kiba wondered what kind of books he'd been reading to figure that this was how things went down.
Sai turned to Kiba. "Good morning, honey."
Kiba paled upon hearing Sai's nickname for him. "Um…"
The bite marks on Sai's lip and shoulder (as well as the scratches on the backs of his thighs) were as clear as day. Kiba felt guilty for damaging that perfect skin.
Sai turned back to the stove, giving Kiba a great view of his bared ass, causing a tingling in Kiba's belly.
Of all the bizarre things that had happened over the past few weeks, including the fiasco with the Akatsuki, Kiba was pretty sure this took the cake.
He swallowed hard and sat down on the couch (the same one he had roughly pushed Sai over the night before, he remembered, glancing at the spot where the pale ninja had landed beneath him) and watched Sai move around gracefully as he cooked.
After a few minutes Sai brought two plates over, handing one to Kiba, who took it wordlessly. He sat down next to the dog ninja.
Kiba nervously started cutting into the meat on his plate, unsure of what to say.
"So have we entered into a romantic relationship," Sai asked, "or was this a once-off thing? The books said…" He trailed off, remembering that talk of his books had bothered Kiba greatly the night before.
Kiba started to answer but then a thought came over him. Would it really be so bad to date the artist, just for a while? They'd already been intimate, and perhaps having one person to help him through the rest of his heat wouldn't be so bad. Sai wasn't a close friend, so there was no chance in destroying a friendship. He wondered if Sai would be up for a more casual relationship… if he actually was up for one.
Sai's straightforwardness encouraged him to be up-front as well. "You're only into me because of a condition I have, but if you want to…"
"I know full well about your condition – the Hokage explained it to us," Sai said with a smile.
"What?!" Kiba exclaimed. Couldn't that woman keep this private? At this rate the entire village was going to know about his shameful secret.
"Don't worry," Sai said. "I don't mind at all. Last night was… fun. I certainly wouldn't mind doing that again. I think we should enter into a relationship."
Kiba's anger subsided as he realised what Sai had said. "Sure…" he replied weakly.
There was a knock at the door and Sai got up, taking their breakfast plates with him. Kiba turned around when he heard a familiar voice.
"The Hokage has called for us," Shikamaru said. Then he noticed that Sai seemed to be wearing nothing but an apron and that Kiba was there as well. "And, uh, she's looking for you as well. I was wondering why you weren't at home." His brows knit together and he turned and left without another word.
"I should leave," Kiba said, embarrassed. He stood up and went to Sai's room to get his shirt and jacket.
"You're welcome to have a shower, first," Sai said, following him. "I could even join you."
The thought made Kiba's pulse speed up, but he knew they didn't have time. The Hokage would become impatient if they took too long. Instead he threw on his shirt and gave Sai a peck on the cheek. "Maybe later."
They made their way to the Hokage's office and once again Kiba waited out in the corridor while Sai and Shikamaru went in to speak with the Hokage.
After about ten minutes they exited and Kiba peeked around the doorway meekly. Tsunade waved her hand, indicating that he could come in. He took a seat at her desk.
"You are forbidden to make contact with any Suna shinobi," she said as soon as he was seated. "You will not be receiving missions that will put you in contact with them, and if anyone from Suna comes here, you are not to interact with them. Is that clear?"
"Yes," Kiba replied solemnly.
"Also, I think that I will need to come up with some… restrictions for the future, and I won't be sending you on any more missions during your heat, not until we have this under control, at least" she said.
Kiba remained silent, watching the Hokage's lips move as she spoke. He remembered how soft her lips were, how they had given him such pleasure… He shook his head to clear his thoughts. He had enough on his plate right now.
"I'll need you to come in for some medical tests later in the week," Tsunade said. "That is all for now. You are dismissed."
When Kiba finally reached his apartment building he picked up the heavy scent of ramen and masculinity. Naruto was here again. He sighed and continued on until he got to his door where the blonde was about to knock.
"Hey, Naruto," Kiba said, trying to sound as friendly as possible, remembering how rude he had been the last time he had seen the whiskered ninja.
"I tried coming over again a week or so ago," Naruto said, following Kiba into the apartment. "You were out though. I heard you went on a mission."
"Yeah."
"I heard it didn't go to well."
"It didn't." Kiba replied, heading into the kitchen area. He really wanted to go have a shower but it seemed that he now had a guest to entertain. "You want something to drink?"
"Sure," Naruto replied, rubbing the back of his neck and smiling. "Anything's fine."
"Sakura-chan and I had a fight," Naruto informed him cheerily as he handed the blonde a glass of juice. "So I've been feeling lonely."
"I'm, uh, sorry to hear that," Kiba said uncertainly, keeping his distance from the other male.
"Wanna have some fun?" Naruto asked with a cheeky grin.
Kiba didn't answer. He wanted more than anything to give in but that would be cheating on his new boyfriend… wouldn't it? He knew that it would be, but would Sai see it that way? The pale artist didn't really seem to know much about relationships so maybe he would be okay with it. But what was the point of being in a relationship if he wasn't going to stay faithful? Then again, was a relationship with someone like Sai really going to work out, anyway? Naruto was one of his ultimate fantasies. Here was a perfect opportunity to have him and Kiba had to pass it up.
Before Kiba could think clearly he heard Naruto shout, "Kage bunshin no jutsu!"
Suddenly there were five Narutos in the room, all of them heading straight towards Kiba. Kiba tried to fight them off but they overpowered him quickly, pinning him to the floor.
"Naruto, you don't understand," he whined. "I have a boyfriend now. I can't… as much as I want to… fuck…"
Naruto jumped up as his shadow clones disappeared, realisation dawning in his eyes. His cheeks turned bright pink. "What?" he shouted. "I just thought we could fight and train together! You pervert!" With that, he ran out of the apartment without looking back.
