"K-Kiba?" Temari stuttered.

Kiba was astonished, the truth was he was expecting her to be there, but he wasn't ready for this. She's gorgeous, he thought. The only thing he wanted to do that moment was to grab her and kiss her like there was no tomorrow.

"T-Temari..." he thought. Why the hell am I stuttering?, he thought.

"Why are you here?" Temari asked him almost whispering, avoiding to meet his gaze.

Kiba cleared his throat. "I actually came here to see Shikamaru."

"Oh" Temari said. Did she just sound disappointed?, Kiba thought. Temari talked again stopping his thoughts. "He's not here, he has gone to Choji's to help him with some things."

"I see" Kiba said. "Then, I want you to tell him that I'm leaving to Suna."

Temari's expression changed and her eyes met his automatically. "What?"

"Me and Akamaru are moving to Suna...my sister found me a great job there..." Kiba said and checked Temari's face, only to find a mix of pain and sadness.

She didn't say anything, and that made the things even more awkward. "Tell him I'll miss him...and of course...I'll miss you too."

Temari stared in his eyes. "Me too, Kiba" she whispered.

"Hey, Kiba!" Shikamaru's voice was heard and they saw Shikamaru coming.

"Hey, Shikamaru" Kiba said and forced himself to smile.

Shikamaru smiled and stood next to Temari. "How's from here?"

"Well..." Kiba started "I wanted to tell you some news..."

"News huh?" Shikamaru said "We have some news too. Temari, have you already told him?"

"Tell me what?" Kiba asked in a confused tone.

"Temari's pregnant!" Shikamaru said and put his arm around Temari's shoulders.

Kiba felt like someone had hit him. "Temari is...pregnant?"

"Yeah..." Temari said avoiding Kiba's gaze.

Many thoughts were rolling in Kiba's mind that moment, like a tornado. Pregnant? And only a few weeks have passed since...No! The baby can't be mine...it can't be mine...

"Kiba..are you okay?" Shikamaru's voice brought him back to reality.

"Uhm..yeah, I just have a little headache since I woke up today" Kiba lied. "Well, congratulations guys. This is great."

"It is...so what did you want to tell me?" Shikamaru asked him.

"Well...I don't feel well...Temari will tell you.." Kiba said and walked away of the house before anyone could tell him anything. He ran away of the house...running like there was no tomorrow.

Suddenly, when he realized he was away of the house, he sat on a bench and put his head in his hands. What if the baby is mine? What if I'm the real father? And now I will be gone...maybe for years...

He was feeling desperate. Cold air touched his face and he closed his eyes, bringing in his mind the memory of him and Temari in his bed...

He thought of everything. How he had touched her. How he had kissed her. How he had loved her that night.

Does any of these memories mean anything to her?, he thought. He looked around him like someone would jump from the bushes next to Kiba's bench, telling him the answer for what he was thinking.

"Hey, Kiba, what's wrong?"

Kiba turned to see who it was.
