Puppy Love

He came home on the third day unharmed like he promised. Now to find the person he was looking for. If his suspisions were correct he knew exactly where to find her. Taking off in a run he headed toward the direction in where he hoped to find the person he was seeking.

She was at the pet store again adoring the puppy that continued to hit its head on the window trying to get to her. It was so cute. She giggled as the puppy licked the window. It was silly also. How she wanted a puppy so badly. How she wanted THAT puppy so badly.

"SAKURA!"

She froze. She knew that voice. Turning she saw the black haired chuunin. She had forgotten today was the day he returned. It didn't matter to her anyways. Turning back around she focused her attention back on the puppy.

"Go away."

He frowned. Why was she so mad at him? What had he done? Walking toward her he watched as she backed away. Why was she ignoring him? This wasn't how he wanted it to be after he had just gotten back from a mission. Why was she so mad?

"Sakura, what's wrong?"

She glared at him. How dare hime pretending like he didn't know. She was filled with anger and did the first thing that came to mind. She smacked him. She watched as his face turned to shock and he put his hand over his reddened cheek. Serves him right for playing her like he did.

"Ino-chan told me everything. Why don't you go bug your girlfriend Hinata? After all you love her."

His eyes widened. He didn't know what to say. He couldn't even move as he watched her run away. His eyes turned to that of shock to anger. So it was Ino's fault why Sakura was mad at him. He was going to find that blonde liar then find Sakura and apologize. Sniffing the air he took off in the direction of the blonde's scent.

She was walking home from just closing the flower shop. It took her by surprise when she found herself punned up against a wall starring into angry brown eyes. A smirk formed on her lips. So he had already found out. The red mark on his cheek told her it turned out bad for him.

"Why did you lie to Sakura?"

He growled when he saw her smile. Why was she smiling? It just angered him more. If she wasn't a girl he would have already punched her. Growling he pushed her a little harder into the wall. It was his turn to smirk when he saw the pain on her face.

"What does she got that I don't? I've liked you longer then she has and you choose her. She is nothing but a big forehead girl."

That just angered him more. He was about to hit her but a familiar scent envaded his nose. It smelled like cherry blossoms. No. Turning around he saw Sakura, tears in her eyes. Ino must have realized it also for her eyes widened in shock.

She had heard everything. She was going to the flower shop to find Ino and tell her what had happened. When she saw Kiba pinning her against the wall she hid to see what was happening. After Ino mad that confession she came out. She couldn't believe her best friend had lied to her. All because she liked the same guy she did. She thought they had truly became friends again. Slowly shaking her head she took one step back before completely turning around and running away.
