The Moment Before We Kiss

Chapter 5: Hatred.

Continues from the previous chapter...

"No...No!" Hinata yelled, and ran off crying.

"Hinata?" Sakura said, 'Oh No! I forgot that she likes Naruto!' She thought.

"Sakura-chan?" Narto said.

"Hinata!" Salura ran after her.

"S-Sakura-chan?" Naruto said, following.

"Hinata! Please!" Sakura said, running out of breath.

"No!" She screamed, sobbing. She ran into the crowd and disappeared.

"Hinata!" Sakura said, and decided to stop chasing Hinata.

"Sakura-chan!" naruto said, panting.

"Oh, Naruto!" Sakura said, and hugged him...once again.

Naruto blushed. "What's wrong Sakura-chan?"

"...It's Hinata...you know...she likes you..." Sakura said.

"Eh? No way, She likes Kiba."

"No...its the other way around. Kiba like Hinata, and Hinata likes you...but...but...I don't want her to take you away from me..."

Naruto gasped. 'Did Sakura-chan really say that?' He thought.

"Naruto...I...I...like you...a lot. Will you go out with me?" Sakura said, slightly blushing.

Naruto gasped again.
"W-Wha? dattebayo?"

"You heard me..." Sakura said.

"...Y-yes, I'd love to.." Naruto mumbled, apparently, shy.

"Huh?" Sakura said, torturing him.

Naruto gulped.
"I'd love to go out with you, Sakura-chan!" He said out loud, blushing.

Sakura smiled, and hugged him tighter. He grinned.

'But..I feel so guilty that...Hinata...' She thought.


Hinata ran, as if running for her life.

'Naruto-kun...and Sakura-chan...I...I...hate them!' She thought, crying.


Kiba's eyes seemed as if they would pop out of their sockets. Temari pressed her lips against his.

Shikamaru noticed.
He walked over, and grabbed Temari's hand.
'What the? What the hell am I doing?'

Temari looked at Shikamaru and smirked.

Kiba fainted. (Ya know, the swirly eye faint)

"Come on..." Shikamaru said, blushing.

Temari smirked.

"Don't touch my girl, Kiba." Shikamaru said, at the unconsiouss (sp?) Kiba.

"Who said I was your girl?" Teamri teased.

Shikamaru turned much redder.
'Damn, this is getting troublesome...' Shikamaru thought.

"Haha, I was just teasing, come on, Pineapple head." Teamri said, as she hooked her arm around his. She looked at Kiba.
'Sorry, dog-boy, deals off. I already got my man' She thought.

(Bad Temari! lol)

Kiba was still unconciouss (sp?).


Naruto and Sakura was walking through the crowd when there was a mob of people, standing around a person, on the ground.

"Don't you think we should call the police?" Someone said.

"Is this boy dead?" Another one said.

Someone poked him with a stick.

Naruto and Sakura exchanged looks and went over to the mob.

"Excuse, us.." Sakura said, then gasped when she saw who the person was.

"Eh? dattebayo?! It's Kiba!" Naruto said, as he kneeled next to Kiba.
"Oi, Kiba, wake up!" Naruto said, as he shook Kiba like crazy.

"Ahhhh!" Kiba woke up.

Everyone then, saw that Kiba was okay, and left.

"Kiba-kun! What the heck happened? You look shocked." Sakura said as she put her hand on his forehead.

"Stop it, I'm fine." Kiba said.

"Oi, Sakura-chan was trying to help!" Naruto yelled.

"Stop it Naruto. It's fine." Sakura said.

"Hai..." Naruto said lowly.

"Sorry, Sakura. I'm just...ugh." Kiba said.

"It's okay, but, can you please explain what happened?" Sakura asked.

"It's a long story..."

After Kiba explained...

"Oh..so that's what happened..." Sakura said.

"Yup...and now I can't get Hinata to like me." Kiba said, sadly.

Sakura felt sorry for him, and looked and Naruto. He nodded.

"Okay..well, Kiba-kun...Hinata..." Sakura blushed, "She saw me and Naruto..umm..well...kiss.. and now she's sad, and probably hates us now...why don't you go find her and comfort her? And tell her how you feel." Sakura said.

"Haha, you guys going out now?" Kiba said.

Naruto and Sakura blushed.

"Well, I guess I'll take your advice. Thanks Uzumaki, Sakura." Kiba said, and walked away.

Sakura smiled, "I hope Kiba gets what he wants." She said.

"Yeah, dattebayo!" Naruto said.


Kiba ran around, and looked for Hinata. And he found her. He walked over to her and gulped.

"Hinata?" Kiba said.

Hinata looked up from the ground, "K-Kiba-kun?!"

"Yeah, its me...what's wrong?" He said, nervous.

"...It's nothing..." She said, looking away.

"...oh..." Kiba looked down. 'How am I supposed to do this? Grr... I'm regretting taking Sakura's advice...and where the hell is Akamaru?' He thought.

"Kiba-kun...leave me." Hinata said, rudely.

"What?!" Kiba said looking at her. She turned away.

"I..hate you..." She said softly.

"What?" Kiba said.

"I...hate you! I hate all of you!!!" She yelled, and ran away.

Kiba froze. 'She...hates me?' He thought.
