Don't mind me (NaruHina)

Chapter 6: Kiba knows the truth...

Kiba P.O.V


Naruto's been gone for about a week now on a mission. After pestering Hinata for a good half an hour, she told me that her and Naruto have been going out.

"How long have you guys been a couple?" I ask while nugging her.

"Umm... About 3 weeks"

"....."

"3 WEEKS?!?! WHY DID YOU KEEP IT A SECRET SO LONG?!?!" Hinata looks up at the sky blushing and then looks at me.

" I guess I never really thought to tell you before. Sorry." She looks at me with an apologetic smile. She makes it so damn hard to be mad at her.

"*Sigh* It's fine, but you should be more open ya'know." She nods her head in response and then pats Akamarus head.

" Did you want to go to Ichirokus and get some ramen? I'm kind of hungry." I ask her while holding my stomach as it continues to growl.

"O-Okay Kiba-kun. It is around lunch time."

We go to get ramen and while we eat a comfortable silence is between us. I usually don't like silence, but this seems to be okay.

Hinata looks like she's in deep thought so I decide that I won't disturb her, she's probably stressed out about something with Naruto away and all. I don't want to pry, so if she wants to tell me then I'm all ears but if not... Then I'll let her be. I'll simply ask if she's okay to see if she wants to talk about anything.


"Hey Hinata, are you alright?" I give her a sympathetic look while she looks at me wide eyed... I wonder what's wrong....

Hinata's P.O.V

While eating ramen with Kiba I think about what he said earlier.


" You really have to be more open
ya'know."

Kiba's been one of my best friends who I can trust. I've never really told him about myyy... problem. But I think I need to tell him. He's like a brother that I can trust.. but.. How will he handle it??

"Hey Hinata, are you alright?" I look at Kiba with wide eyes, am I that easy to read?!

" Um Kiba I need to tell you something very important. Do you mind coming to my house so I can tell you. It's kind of some thing you can't say in public."

Kiba shoots me a wide smile." You got it!"

We finish our ramen and head off towards my home. I think I'll tell him the same way I told Naruto, putting on some shorts and letting my scars do the talking.

Once we get to my home we go up the stairs and up to my room. I tell Kiba to sit on my bed and wait while I change my clothes in my bathroom. He obeys like a good little dog and sits on my bed while Akamaru lays down on the floor. Once I pop out of the bathroom Kiba looks at my legs and drops his jaw. He then closes his mouth and eyes while I see a tear stroll down his face.

Great I made two ninja cry in one week. I go up to him and sit on my bed while hugging him.

" I needed to tell you. Your my best friend and I know I can trust you to keep it a secret."

He pulls away from the hug and looks at me seriously," Does Naruto know?"

"Yes.. He is the only other person that know my secret and I would like it to stay that way."

We sit there in silence for a good couple minutes until Kiba mutters," How long."

"What?"

"How long have you been suffering like this?" This is the most serious I have ever seen Kiba.

" It started about a year ago. I was depressed and lonely and.. And it just.....just happened." I looked down to my bed to avoid Kibas gaze.

"If only I could have been there to help you.. Maybe it wouldn't have come this far... This is my fault..."

I snap my head up. His eyes are downcast towards my bed and tears are streaming down his face. His fault? No, this anything but. It was my stupid decision and I can't have him feeling guilty for it. I give him a bone crushing hug while tears fall down my cheeks.

"This is anything but your fault." I whisper.

"But, if I had-"

I pull away from the hug and look him in the eye.

"It's not your fault, this is a mess I got myself into, so I don't want you to feel guiltily, okay?" He nods his head and pulls me into another hug. Breaking the seriousness Akamaru decides to jump and tackle us both onto the bed.

Soon Kiba left, and I had just relized that it had gotten dark out... I look out my window and the same curious statement keeps popping into my head.. 'I wonder what Naruto's doing now...'
