Festival

It was fun to be at the festival with Hinata.

Paper lanterns gave off circles of pastel light.

The evening had an ethereal quality.

They wandered between vendor's stalls, eating dumplings.

He bought her cheap festival jewelry, bracelets, which she wore proudly.

He didn't know how special they were to her.

It was the first jewelry of her own she'd ever received.

It may not have compared to jewels she'd worn at clan functions but to her they were priceless.

Kiba would give his whole self to her.

He just didn't know how much of herself he gave to her.
