chapter four: his name is kankuro
Naruto didn't know what to feel. He sat in shock, replaying the events he had just seen in his head. Kiba, covered in cuts and marks, getting fucked by that same guy with the purple tattoos who tried to attack both Naruto and Sakura. Millions of questions were buzzing through Naruto's mind, and his brain couldn't process all of them at once, he was left staring wide eyed through the gaps in the curtain. Staring at Kiba's naked body and exhausted expression.
Were the two dating? Naruto wondered. Surely not, he saw how scared Kiba was in the morning when he noticed the hooded man. This was definitely no ordinary relationship between Kiba and the purple guy. Naruto was going to get to the bottom of this. But he had to be patient for just a little while, as much as he hated it.
Naruto continued to watch through the curtain, observing Kiba's action. He felt his stomach twist as he watched a tear fall down Kiba's cheek. He couldn't bare to watch anymore, and he quickly ran off back home.
Naruto walked into the door of his house, and was instantly attacked with questions from his dad. "Why were you out so late? It's already five! Were you with someone, what were you doing?"
Naruto sighed. "I was just bringing a classmate some homework that he didn't get because he was absent today. Is that not allowed?"
"What guy? Why was he absent? Was he at home doing drugs or something?" Minato asked like a crazy man.
"Minato! Stop attacking the boy, will you? He's probably had a long day." Kushina intervened, saving Naruto.
"Thank you, mum. You don't know just how right you are," Naruto said as he began his walk upstairs to his room.
"I'm buying you new shorts." Minato called out as he watched Naruto walking up the stairs.
As soon as Naruto got into his room he checked his phone and saw three missed calls from Sakura, and he knew that he couldn't tell her what he had seen. He put on a happy facade and called Sakura back. It didn't even have to ring once for her to answer.
"Naruto! Why haven't you answered any of my calls? Is Kiba okay?" Sakura asked, clearly she had been worrying for quite some time.
"Sorry Sakura! I got... a bit lost finding Kiba's house. I'll just have to call Kiba to let him know we're in the same group." Naruto lied, though he hoped Sakura couldn't tell.
"It's no use, Naruto. Kiba hasn't any of my calls either. I seriously think something is wrong, and I have no doubt that it has something to do with that guy with the purple markings." Sakura explained, and she didn't know just how right she was.
"I'm sure he's fine, Sakura. Kiba can protect himself, there's no need to worry." Naruto tried to calm the pinkette down, though he was much more worried than she was. Naruto knew exactly what was happening to Kiba. "Let me try calling me. I'll call you back soon."
"Okay, I'll be waiting."
Naruto hung up, and then proceeded to call Kiba. It rang three times and Naruto thought Kiba wouldn't pick up, but he did.
"Hey Naruto!" Kiba said, and Naruto could practically hear Kiba's smile. Naruto smiled too.
"Hey Kiba. What's up? Apparently you've missed a bunch of Sakura's calls?" Although Naruto knew exactly what was up.
There was silence on the line for a minute.
"Uh, I was just busy aha. I didn't realise my phone was on silent. I'll text her later. Hope I didn't worry her." Kiba clearly lied, and Naruto wondered whether or not he would have picked up on it if he hadn't known the truth.
"Haha! That makes sense, I do it all the time. Say, Kiba..." The blond paused, contemplating if asking what he was about to ask was a good idea. "Could I come over? We're in the same group for that History assignment. It's due Friday."
"No need to sound so serious Naruto! Of course you can come over. But is it seriously due on Friday!? Today's Tuesday, that's definitely not enough time!" Kiba whined. "Maybe you should just stay the night so we can get as much done as posisble." He suggested, and Naruto agreed.
"I'll be there soon, then!" Naruto chimed, then quickly hung up the phone and rushed to get ready. Meanwhile Kiba was wondering how long until Naruto would have to call back to ask where he lived. The call never came though.
"Naruto where do you think you're going at this hour?" Minato asked as he noticed his son walking down the stairs with a bag on his back.
"I was just gonna go to Kiba's house, we have this assignment due Friday. Would it be okay if I stayed the night? It's a pretty big assignment." Naruto asked calmly, although on the inside he was freaking out about what his dad might say.
Minato looked as though he was putting a lot of thought into his decision. It was two minutes later when he finally replied a blunt "ok".
"Thanks dad! You're the best!" Naruto cheered, and went over to hug his dad. Naruto loved his dad, even if he was a little harsh sometimes. Naruto knew that his dad loved him too.
Naruto then quickly ran out the door and off the Kiba's house, which wasn't too far from his own house.
However at the last minute Naruto began to panic, he didn't know if he could just act as if he saw nothing earlier that day. And now he was sleeping over at his house? He didn't know how to feel about that, especially since he had these strange feelings about the attractive brunette.
Naruto finally built up the courage, however barely had a chance to knock before Kiba opened the door. Did Kiba see him standing like a fool outside the door for a solid two minutes?
"Hey Naruto!" Kiba chimed. "How did you know where I live?"
Naruto face visibly fell, as he felt like such a huge stalker.
"Ahh... funny story actually." Naruto laughed nervously.
"Naw Gayruto is a stalker now, is he?" Kiba insulted. Naruto just blushed. "Well, come on in. We have that entire assignment to do right?" Naruto nodded and followed the brunette into the living room.
That's when the unexpected happened. The cutest white dog charged its way down the stairs and jumped onto Naruto, licking his face all over. "Waaaahh!" Naruto cried as he was pushed to the floor and attacked.
"Akamaru! Leave Naruto alone!" Kiba ordered, and Akamaru quickly obeyed, although he still looked happy to meet someone new.
Naruto started giggling as he played with the cutest, fluffiest dog he had ever seen in his life. "He's adorable!"
"I'm guessing you like dogs, then?" Kiba asked.
"I love dogs! Especially this little guy. He's so fluffy!"
"I love dogs too, my mum's a vet and a dog breeder. My sister is a vet as well." Kiba explained.
"Woah that's so cool!" Naruto's eyes lit up as he continued to roll on the floor like a four year old with a new toy. "Wait, speaking of your family. Where are they?"
"Mum is usually away. We have a house in the country where all the dogs stay, so she's there most of the time. My sister, Hana, should be home soon though." Kiba explained to the blond. Family was kind of a touchy subject, as his dad left when he was young, and his mum was always away. He really only had his sister to count on.
Naruto sensed the intense aura around the topic though. "A dog breeder? That's so cool! Where am I sleeping tonight, by the way?"
"My bed is pretty big, so I thought we could just share. The couch is pretty uncomfortable. That alright with you, Gayruto?" Kiba said with a wink. Naruto's face instantly flushed.
"Shouldn't say that when you've already got a boyfri- GIRLfriend, Kiba." Naruto quickly covered up his mistake, however it was still heard by Kiba. Awkward and tense silence filled the room.
"Boyfriend? Stop mixing your fantasies with reality, Gayruto. I'm sure my GIRLfriend wouldn't mind me sleeping with a guy." Kiba lied to avoid the awkward conversation that could have easily followed. They both knew now that the other knew something they shouldn't.
"I wouldn't mind sleeping in the same bed with you either, since I'm NOT gay!" Naruto defended. But he did mind, he really did. Because he really was beginning to understand that he was gay. And he did have a huge crush on Kiba.
"Anyway let's get started on the assignment, shall we?" Kiba suggested. Naruto agreed to the idea, and Kiba decided it would be easier to work in his room.
Naruto walked up the stairs feeling fairly nervous that he would be going into Kiba's room, but he didn't really understand why. 'Alone... with Kiba?' he thought, and couldn't help but blush at the thought. Then he remembered Akamaru would be there too, so nothing too embarrassing could happen. He hoped.
Naruto walked into Kiba's room and instantly smelt Kiba's scent, and it was kind of sexy. He looked around and noticed it was pretty plain room, with just a desk and cupboard along with a bed - which was big like Kiba mentioned. And it looked really comfortable. Naruto couldn't wait to sleep there... with Kiba next to him.
They sat and done work with some small talk inbetween, while Akamaru slept peacefully on Kiba's bed. The only interesting thing that happened was Kiba dropping a pencil and being unable to find it. They actually managed to get half of their assignment done within two hours, and they figured they might as well leave it there and do the rest tomorrow night or perhaps even finish it in class if they worked hard enough. Though Naruto liked the idea of coming over again tomorrow night.
After packing up all of their school books it was already 7:30 and the two were getting pretty hungry. "Hana is a really good cook, if you wanna wait for her to get home?" Kiba asked.
"Really? Then sure I don't mind waiting." Naruto replied with a smile, followed by a yawn. He was pretty tired from all the working. He usually procrastinated till the last minute and never done homework. But he couldn't let Kiba down.
The two teens stood up, when Kiba's clumsy self slipped over a pencil that was discarded on the ground. That damned pencil. Thing is, he didn't just fall, no way. He fell right on top of Naruto, pushing him to the ground. Their faces were a little too close for two friends, and Naruto was wide-eyed in shock. His blue eyes stared straight into Kiba's deep brown eyes. They really were gorgeous, Naruto thought.
The two were in that position for a good two minutes, Naruto's heart racing and face flushed red. He didn't know where this situation could lead but he hoped it would lead where he thought it was leading. The blond just could not tell what was going on in Kiba's head - he looked conflicted over something. Naruto knew it had to have had something to do with the guy with purple markings.
Kiba moved his head just an inch closer to Naruto's. They were now only an inch apart, and Naruto's blush deepened. Kiba's heart was racing too, Naruto could tell. They both wanted this, but there was something, or rather someone, stopping it.
"Who is he?" Naruto asked, voice barely a whisper, and Kiba knew exactly who Naruto was talking about.
"His name is Kankuro.." Kiba finally responded, but he didn't plan on telling much more.
Before Naruto even had a chance to say anymore, the door opened suddenly, revealing Hana who had just gotten home. Hana's face immediately turned redder than Naruto's, as everyone was now clearly embarrassed.
Kiba jumped up off of Naruto. "It's not what it looks like! I slipped over a pencil, I swear!" Kiba explained, and technically he wasn't lying.
"Sorry for interrupting!" Hana quickly said, then closed the door. "I'll make some dinner for you two so you can just get back to... whatever!" She shouted from the other side of the door, then rushed down the stairs. Boy she did not expect to walk in on her brother doing that of all things.
Awkward silence took over the room, as both teens struggled to avoid each others gazes.
"Soo.." Naruto began.
"So..." Kiba continued.
"Wanna kiss me?" Naruto asked boldly.
"I do, Naruto. But I can't."
"Is it because of this Kankuro guy? Just who is he anyway, Kiba? He seems dangerous." Naruto's voice was soft and calming. He wanted Kiba to know that he could trust him, but he was definitely worried.
"I'm not allowed to say." Kiba told him, and it was the truth.
"He punched Sakura this morning."
"He did what!? Why did he do that?" Kiba was clearly worried now, and Naruto just wanted him to know that everything was okay. Only he didn't know if everything was okay. "He's dangerous, Naruto! He knows people. Please tell me you wont get involved." Kiba pleaded.
"But Kiba-"
"Please! Promise me, Naruto." Kiba interjected.
A minute of silence passed.
"I promise... But please tell me what he's doing to you, Kiba. Kiba I care about you and I need you to trust me. Sakura and I are worried sick." Naruto begged.
"Okay, Naruto. I'll tell you what I can - but you can't tell anyone, alright? Not even Sakura." Kiva gave in, and decided he would tell Naruto.
"I promise." Naruto Agreed.
"Dinner's ready!" Hana called from downstairs, and she really didn't know what she was interrupting this time.
"I'll explain after dinner."
