Going Home with Shino
Shino walked lightly next to the Hokage, staying silent as the cool evening pressed against them both, their many layers of clothes protecting them from any uncomfortable trembles. Shino glanced sideways at the slightly taller man walking alongside him, his head staring at the sky.
"My lord?" he asked breaking the comfortable silence between them. They had just left the Hokage building to head towards their homes, which happened to be quite close to one another.
"Yeah?" he asked, still watching the stars shine above, lifting his arms to sit behind his head.
"My daughter asked if you were strong."
The Hokage let out a little chuckle.
"Yeah? And what'd you tell her?"
"Oh, I told her that you were the strongest man in the world," Shino said, now watching the stars as their shoes scuffed along the road, the Hokage smirking to himself.
"She's what, four now?"
"Yes, sir. She will be five in three more months."
"And the baby, she's only a few moths old, right?"
"Yes, sir."
"Konchuu and Hotaru? Right?"
"Yes, sir."
Silence fell between them when suddenly Shino spoke again.
"Sir, do you think they will be great ninja?" he asked, stopping and looking at the man through his dark sunglasses, his dark eyes intense. The Hokage stopped walking, still looking up. Shino watched the Hokage's back and he slowly dropped his hands from behind his head and smirked at Shino.
"If they're anything like you, Shino, my man, they are going to make your family proud!"
Shino smiled behind his high collar but looked emotionless to the Hokage who only continued to smirk and walk forward, his house dead ahead.
"Goodnight Shino!" the Hokage called, Shino staying where he had stopped.
"My Lord!" Shino called out.
"Yeah?"
"You're a good man, Naruto."
The Hokage only smirked again, waving a hand and walked toward his home, leaving the bug man standing quietly in the street, the stars singing quietly overhead…
