As the sun began its descent, painting the sky with hues of warm gold, Ruka and Kiba strolled leisurely through the village streets on their way back to Kiba's house. The gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers, mingling with the sound of rustling leaves and distant chatter.
Kiba's expression was knitted with frustration, his shoulders tense as he kicked a small stone along the path. "Man, Kotaro Fuma is really pushing me hard during training lately," he grumbled, his voice carrying a hint of irritation.
Ruka cast a concerned glance at him, her brow furrowing with empathy. "Again? What's been happening?" she inquired softly, her tone laced with genuine concern.
"He's been making me do extra laps and spar with him for longer periods," Kiba replied, the frustration evident in his voice. "It's like he expects me to perform at my peak all the time, even when I'm already giving it my all."
Ruka nodded understandingly, her eyes reflecting his frustration. "That does sound challenging. Have you talked to him about it?" she asked, her voice filled with empathy.
Kiba shook his head, a deep frown creasing his brow. "No, I don't want to appear weak or incapable in front of him," he admitted, his frustration evident.
Ruka reached out, placing a comforting hand on his arm. "You're not weak, I think my boyfriend incredibly strong and capable," she reassured him, her voice gentle yet firm. "Just hang in there, okay? You'll achieve great things in the military force."
Kiba's expression softened at her words, a grateful smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "I will" he murmured, his voice filled with appreciation.
As they reached Kiba's clan house, they paused at the doorstep, the warmth of their home beckoning them inside. "Let's go in, no one's home," Kiba suggested, a playful glint in his eyes as he gestured towards the door causing Ruka to smile.

"We're gonna have to be quiet," Ruka murmured against Kiba's grinning lips, pinned underneath him on his mattress. he nudged her nose with his assuringly. "What are you talking about? I told you there's no one at home and Akamaru is sleeping in the living room." She weren't so confident about that, but she was far too gone to really care.
