Shino stumbled back, tripped over a chair, and fell flat on his back.
"Where's Akamaru you drug-addicted bastard??!!?!!!" Kiba screamed.
Shino groaned and lifted his hand to feel his bleeding nose. When he brought it to eye-level and saw the blood, he let out a high-pitched scream not unlike the one of a five-year-old girl.
"Dude...you scream like a chick!" Kiba said.
"Fuck you, I thought this was about your dog?" Shino said thickly. He sat up, a hand cupped over his nose.
"Oh yeah, huh?" Kiba whispered to himself.
"Where is he?" Kiba said loudly.
Shino sighed.
"I think Gaara put him in the closet..."
"WHAT?!?!!?!?" Kiba screamed.
He ran forward, giving Shino a kick in the side, and into Gaara's room. He wrenched open the closet door and pulled a frightened Akamaru out.
"DAMN YOU, SHINO!!!" Kiba yelled, hugging Akamaru close.
Shino frowned. "Whatever."
Kiba gave an angry growl and kicked open the front door. He grabbed Shino by the wrist and dragged him toward the door.
"We're leaving, Hinata, see you later." Kiba said.
"Uh...ok." said Hinata, fighting the strong urge to laugh.
Kiba dragged Shino out of the house and kicked the door close. Shino made no attempt to get free, apparently he was too sleepy to walk by himself.
Hinata yawned and streched her arms, she was so tired.
She locked the front door and went into Gaara's room and lay down on the bed, having forgotten that Gaara was also in it.
She quickly drifted off to sleep.
The Next Morning
Hinata opened her eyes and found herself face to face with Gaara. His face was about an inch from hers,
and she could feel his steady breathing on her nose. His cuts and bruises were half healed and you could really see the handsomeness beneath them.
She closed her eyes for a few seconds and opened them again and found that she was now staring into Gaara's eyes. He had woken up and was staring at her.
"Uh...and we're in the same bed...why?" he asked.
They still didn't move from their where they were.
"I must have fallen asleep here," Hinata said, not taking her eyes off of his.
"Right. And your arm is wrapped around me why?" Gaara asked, a smirk on his face.
"What?" Hinata said, noticing for the first time that it was true. Her arm was draped over Gaara's waist.
Hinata's face went bright red as she quickly pulled her hand away. "Sorry." Gaara didn't answer, his smirk widened.
"What?" Hinata repeated, smiling involuntarily.
"Nothing." Gaara said.
He smiled. She raised an eyebrow. His smile widened as he tilted back her chin with his finger and kissed her. Hinata's eyes widened in surprise but she did not pull away. Instead, she kissed back.
After a few moments, they broke up. They stared at each other, not speaking.
"I want to ask you something." Gaara said suddenly. "Will-"
But Hinata knew what it was. "Yes."
