A/N: I'm in a good mood - just finished a bout of assessment, therefore I felt the need to update. Yes, I know it's sap - but that's my forte.
DISCLAIMER: As much as I'd love to say Kiba and Ino are mine, and only mine, I can't.
SUMMARY: He loved her for many things, but he also loved her unfailingly through many kinds of situations.

Title: As I Am
Word Count: 150
Characters: Inuzuka Kiba and Yamanaka Ino
He loved her in the mornings, when she stumbled from bed looking like a hazardous wreck.
He loved her when she cursed his name after they'd had a fight.
He loved her when her face was streaked with tears and mascara after a romantic scene in a movie.
He loved her when she got excited over him telling her he was giving her another all-expenses-paid trip to the mall.
He loved her when she made the extra effort to spend time with his family, even when her day was already full.
He loved her when she played with his dogs after a day worthy of turning even the strongest hearted straight into their beds.
He loved her at night when, just before entering bed she'd remove her makeup and he'd see, once again, the face he loved. The face hidden all day by makeup, the face saved solely for him.
