Hey there peoples! Sorry it's been forever since I updated. I'm hoping to put up at least two chapters before school starts which is on August 25th fun, fun, fun
Once again, I don't own Naruto.
Kiba: you wish you did though,
Kitari (me): true, true. But I don't so…. yeah –sweat drop-
Life went on as usual for the rest of the week that Tsumate was gone. And Rikka and Kiba were actually getting along pretty good. With the exception of some 'minor' misunderstandings
-Flash back to a few days ago-
"Okay Akamaru, lets get cleaned up. Now that trainings over I'm all sweaty…" Kiba's words trailed off as he opened the bathroom door and saw Rikka leaning over the bathtub, letting the water out. Yeah, she was wearing a towel. But this was still passing both of their comfort zones by far. "Uh…umm" Kiba was at a loss for words as he stared at Rikka's pale skin and curvaceous body. The almost nude redhead jumped and looked over at Kiba, soon having a blush to match the one Kiba had. The slap that was firmly placed on Kiba's cheek echoed throughout the empty house. Followed by a yelp and a slamming door.
-End flash back-
"You didn't have to hit me that hard. It's not like I meant to walk in on you…"
"Pervert" Rikka shot back, not really listening to Kiba. She was SO embarrassed!
"Hey, I said I was sorry," Kiba whined, trying to defend himself. "Anyways…a few of us genin are getting together for a snowball fight and some hot chocolate. If you want to come you need to hurry and get ready. I'm leaving in ten minutes" Kiba said in a rather cold way, two could play that game. Rikka's face lit up with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go and get ready" she said; jumping out of her seat and running upstairs. Kiba sighed heavily and looked down at Akamaru; who was had the face that made him look like he was laughing.
"I don't get her bud. So much work" he complained even though he was smiling.
"Hey Kiba that's her? The 'lucky' lady?" Naruto asked in his blunt way from a sofa. Speaking what everyone was thinking. Kiba blushed a little, mostly out of embarrassment.
"Uh…yeah…" Rikka smiled at the group that consisted of Shino, Naruto, Sakura, Shikamaru, and Ino. They had all met up at Sakura's house since her parents were out of town.
"Hi, I'm Rikka" she said cheerfully, getting some hello's back. The pair separated; Kiba going over to sit with the guys. And Rikka to go sit with Ino and Sakura.
"Sooo, you and Kiba huh? How does that work? I don't see him as the ideal guy to be shacking up with. No offense," Ino questioned; lowering her voice so only the girls could hear.
"Oh well, he's not the ideal guy per say. But that's what makes this whole thing…interesting" Rikka replied and grinned. Making the two other girls laugh.
After a few minutes of talking the group filed outside.
"Okay people! Get into teams of two and begin to build your forts!" Naruto announced loudly. "Oh yeah, Shino is referee. So no hitting him with the snow"
"So we can hit him with something else?" Shikamaru muttered. Causing Ino to laugh but she abruptly stopped with Shino gave her. What she could only imagine to be a questioning look. It was no surprise how everyone paired up. The teams were: Sakura and Naruto, Shikamaru and Ino, and last but not least; Rikka and Kiba. The teams spread out across the large back yard. Making sure they had some sort of advantage. It took only a few minutes before the snow was flying. Kiba yelped when he got pegged in the face. Naruto, the culprit; laughed in his same loud manner. That was at least until Ino got him in the butt.
"GAH!" Naruto fell to the ground, holding his butt. Everyone laughed. Disturbingly enough so did Shino. Sakura stood up and brushed the snow from her coat.
"Okay guys, lets go get warm" She said, still slightly laughing. There were no real complaints over this command because it was friggin cold! And everyone trudged inside. Except for Kiba who ran over to Shino. He 'slam dunked' a snow ball onto Shino's head. Shino was silent for a moment before pouncing; he pushed Kiba to the ground and preceded to burry the struggling Kiba partially in snow. Rikka just watched and laughed.
"Why aren't you helped meeeee?" Kiba wailed and looked over at her. This made her laugh even more, bringing tears to her eyes.
"You got yourself into this Kiba-kun, it's not my place to help you out. Plus it's entertaining" She said and smiled over at Shino when he stood up and dusted the snow from his hands. Kiba lay there in a pile of snow with his head sticking out.
"Your so cruel Shino! Can't you take a joke?"
Kiba cried up at his teammate who just chuckled and shook his head. Rikka walked over and grinned down at Kiba before looking up at Shino.
"You can go on in, I'll take care of him Shino-kun"
The tall, young man nodded and gave her the faintest of a smile before heading into Sakura's warm house where the others were. Once he was gone Rikka knelt down and gave Kiba a warm smile.
"Now lets get you out of here…" his only response was a blush that couldn't be seen against his already rosy cheeks and nod.
How'd you like it? I plan on adding a 'interesting' twist in here soon so we'll just have to see how that works out and all. Please R and R I love to hear from people. And I guess I'll talk to you peeps later.
Kiba: peeps are nasty
Kitari (me): yeah, I know –sigh-
