Author's Notes: Written for the 30 Smiles Livejournal community. I claimed the ShinoKiba pairing! X3 I'm so proud of myself...So this is going ot be a 30-shot, if I can finish it all the way through. Various styles.

I'm SOO sorry for not updating. -hungs head in shame- It's been about 2 weeks. DX Well, here's the update. In a different sort of writing style.

Oh, and I've changed my penname from TheNewKid25 to Dazed Dreamer. Hoping it doesn't cause any confusion. X)

Enjoy the seventh shot!

Warning/s: Maybe cliche-ish. Tears. Sorta denial.

Title: Need You
Theme/s: #10 All for us
Summary: "I'm doing it for us."


"What're you doing here, Shino?!"

Heart thumping, fists clenching.

"I'm here for you, Kiba."

Intense glare.

"I don't need you."

Eye contact. Look away.

"But I do."

"You're selfish."

"You are, too."

"I don't need you."

"You already told me that."

"I don't think you understood."

Heart thumping more. Eyes start to tear up.

"You're crying."

Tears fall.

"There's something in my eye."

Cold feeling on cheek. Tears wiped away.

"I'm doing this for us."

"There wasn't an us, Shino!"

Weak lies.

"Yes, there was an us. There still is an us."

Lips warm against the other. Heart thumping madly.

"Shino…"

"This is all for us, Kiba. I love you."

Hands holding tightly to the other's shirt.

"I don't need…" Weak grin. "I love you, too."


...Yeah, it's vague. XP Thanks for the reviews, guys! They make me happy. :)
