Kiba was just minding his business, turning in reports when he came in on the middle of an awkward conversation about Shikamaru kissing Temari. He didn't care about that, but what he did care about was the Hokage sticking him with some random guy. And the worse thing about it was that he was stuck with him all afternoon. But there was no complaining so Kiba took Miro to his house while he was getting everything ready for tonight.

"So what's your name"

"Kiba"

"Kiba, I wonder why the Hokage would put me with a scoundrel like you"

Kiba already didn't like Miro and now he definitely didn't like him. He brought him to his house, fed him and made him as comfortable as he possibly could. And was rewarded with an insult. Kiba wanted to strangle him and just let him have it but technically this was a mission the most he could do was scream.

"I am not a scoundrel, and for your information, I'm one of the top ninja in Konoha"

"I heard my fiancée's boyfriend is a pretty impressive ninja too. Konoha must have low standards"

Kiba wasn't sure if he heard him right. The kid sounded like he had a couple of screws loose, and the idea of only them two in a house together didn't seem like a good idea.

"Your fiancé's girlfriend? What the hell does that mean?"

"Well the person I am suppose to marry, it turns out, already has a boyfriend. Even though her attitude isn't the best, I will do anything for her to be mine. It would benefit my father's company and Suna."

He knew right away that he was talking about Temari. An arranged marriage, a bad attitude and a boyfriend that was a ninja had her name written all over it.

"Do you think it's fair to break up two people that love each other"

"They don't love each other"

"Are you saying you love her. And believe me those two are perfect for each other"

"If it would help my father, then yes, I love her"

"That's not love. That's just messed up-"

"I don't think that I should be taking love advice from a bachelor"

"I have a girlfriend, for your information, that I love very much"

"Where is this pretend girlfriend"

"She's actually on her way to Konoha right now"

"I'll believe it when I see it"

"Suit yourself. But I'm telling you kid, don't marry someone for your father. With this both of you would be miserable. And would you be happy knowing that you broke up a happy couple"

"I'm just doing this for my father. The only person I have in this world. My mother left, I have no friends, All I have is my father and I didn't object to the marriage because that meant another person in my life. But this none of your business so I'll just leave and tell the Hokage that I relieved you of your duties"

He left out the door, gently closing it. Maybe this was because he was on the brink of crying and Kiba could see how sincere this kid was. He didn't love Temari but he loved his father and would do anything for him and a friend was just a bonus. He couldn't blame the kid for trying to help his father, because Kiba would do anything for his mother. He just felt pity.

oooooooooo
