A/N: Sixteenth birthday fic for Ashen Rose and baddtotheproverbialbone'DL (also known as Drowning Lilly)! Happy birthday!
Puppy
Hinata idly twiddled with her fingers and clapped her heels together while awaiting her birthday present. She had been sitting on Sasuke's bed for almost twenty minutes and was starting to feel extremely anxious. When he had said "I've got something for ya that you're never gonna forget", she had had visions of diamond bracelets, bunches upon bunches of roses, or maybe even something…sexier.
Hinata sighed and stared at the bathroom door. "Sasuke-kun, could you please hurry up?"
"For the ninth time, hold on," came the muffled reply of her boyfriend.
Hinata twisted her bangs around her index finger and leaned back in the soft mattress. There was no doubt that Sasuke was the one with the most control in this relationship; if he told her to be patient, then she would just have to be patient. Not that she minded being on the bottom half of the relationship scale. She liked a man who was aggressive and protective of his pride.
Hinata glanced at the digital clock on the bedside table: it was almost midnight. It looked like she would have to spend the night at Sasuke's yet again. Of course, that was just fine with her...that is, if her boyfriend would come out of that goddamn bathroom.
"Sasuke-"
Before she could finish telling him to get his butt out of there, the door to the bathroom slowly creaked open. Hinata's heart jumped. Here it comes, her surely romantic birthday present that she was going to remember for the rest of her life. Roses or expensive jewelry or…
The door opened all the way and revealed the most shocking sight of Hinata's life: Uchiha Sasuke, the smartest, sexiest, and most talented ninja in the entire village of Konoha, descending from one of the noblest clans around…wearing an old, dirty, black-spotted puppy costume, complete with a sagging tail and pointed ears.
"I know you always wanted a puppy, Hinata," Sasuke mumbled, glaring down at the puppy costume he was wearing with a look that said 'Goddamn, I can't believe I'm doing this'. "But this was the best I could do."
Hinata laughed in disbelief. It was truly the best birthday present she had ever received. So it wasn't romantic or sexy, but it was adorable…
'Wait…it could be sexy!'
Hinata jumped off the mattress and ran her finger down the faux fur chest of the puppy costume. "So if you're my puppy, Sasuke-kun, does that mean you hafta listen to me like a good boy?"
Sasuke flushed. "Uh…I don't know, but I really wanna get out of this itchy costume-"
Hinata held a finger to his lips and grinned. "The right answer was 'yes', you naughty little puppy."
Sasuke sighed and grinned. "Yes, I'll listen to you."
Hinata giggled. "Good, that means you can cook dinner."
Sasuke stopped smiling. "But-but I thought you wanted to do something hot, like, you know, screw or-"
Hinata cocked her head and patted the top of his head lightly. "But I think that Uchiha Sasuke cooking while in a puppy suit is pretty hot."
Sasuke's shoulders dropped. "Fine, I'll go cook," he mumbled.
Hinata beamed. "That's a good puppy. And if you're good, you'll get a very nice treat."
"You mean, like, sex?"
"Actually, I was thinking along the lines of a dog bone."
