"And that will be the pizza..." said Kiba as he stood up and walked toward the door.
"Finally..." muttered Naruto.
Kiba opens the door.
Pizza guy steps inside, "Sorry it took so long, roads are slick from the ice that keeps building up."
"No worries man. What do I owe ya?"
"$25.50."
"Wow, thats cheaper than I remember." The pizza guy nods as Kiba grabs the money. "Keep the change man." The guy nods and pulls the pizza out of the warming case. He hands it to Kiba. "Enjoy." Kiba takes it, "Be carefull out there." The guy waves and leaves. Kiba closes the door. He turns to see Naruto drolling where he sits. "Geeze man. Can we not droll on my carpet?"
"Sorry," said Naruto as Kiba put the pizza down on the table. "Couldn't help it. Pizza's my second favorite food after ramen."
"I thought ramen was your second favorite food after ramen?"
"Ha-ha very funny. I do eat other thing than ramen. Just not very often."
Kiba chuckled and opened a box. "Mmmmmmm. Looks good..."
"Definatly..."
"Well, dig in..." said Kiba as he grabbed a slice.
-----------------------------------------
Naruto sighed, now very happy and very full. "That was good. Glad we thought of it."
Kiba nodded and reached for the TV remote. "TV?"
"Sure, why not..."
Kiba flicked it on. "Let's see what's on..." He flipped channels for a minute. "Hmmmm...junk...junk...junk...more junk...sports...news...here we go...weather forcast..." They listend to the forcast...
"...And it looks like more of the same weather for the next few days. The front that was supposed to clear this junk out has
stalled and won't be making it here anytime soon. So you'd better keep those rain coats and parkas ready cause it looks like
there's no end in sight. The only real good news it that we aren't expecting any more big storms like what we had last week..."
"Great..." sighed Kiba. He glanced at Naruto. "I guess you're stuck here for awhile."
Naruto looked confused, "I guess? Why, is that a problem?"
"Oh no Naruto, I didn't mean it like that." assured Kiba. "You can stay as long as you need to." Or you could stay forever...
"Oh, okay then...It sounded like you were trying to get rid of me for a second there..." he mentally sighed in relief.
Kiba resumed flipping channels...
----------------------------------------------------------------
Later that night...
Naruto shivers. "Didn't that weather guy say it was supposed to stay about the same temperature, cause it feels like its getting colder."
"Hey yeah, I noticed that too. Hmmmm...I'm going to have to hunt down a few more blankets at this rate..."
Naruto nodded. "I could always keep you warm... He blinked and tried to push the thought from his mind.
Little did he know Kiba was having similar thoughts...
They both blinked...
"So..."
"Well..."
Kiba coughed...
Naruto looked around the room...
So much akward, so little time...
"Well, I had better probably go find those blankets..." Kiba stood up and walked to the hallway closet.
----------------------------------------------
"My god," thought Naruto, "What is with me today...Since when do I have nothing to say...?" He sighed and shook his head. He glanced over toward Kiba. "I wonder..."
----------------------------------------------
Kiba rumaged throught the closet. His thought however, weren't on the cold or finding more blankets. "Geeze, what is with me today...Since when do I not have anyhting to say..." He chanced a glance back at Naruto, who had just turned from studying him. "I wonder what..."
----------------------------------------------
"I wonder what's he's thinking..."
---------------------------------------------
"Í wonder what he's thinking about over there..." muttered Kiba as he went back to rumaging. He finds his warmest woolen blankets. "There we go..." he said outloud. He walked back to the living room. He tossed one blanket to Naruto. "Here ya go. That should keep you warm."
"I'd rather have you keep me warm..." thought Naruto. "Thanks."
"Welcome." Kiba glanced at the window. Ice was building up on the window. "Well, I'd better let Akamaru in..." He walked to the back door and opened it. "Akamaru! Get in here!" Akamaru runs up and barks, "Too you long enough." Kiba doesn't respond, insted he closes the door and walks back to the living room.
