Shino growled and tossed his phone into the wall of his bedroom, watching the device opened violently against the wall the shoved the purple satin sheets off himself. Cursing he glanced at his clock, sighing he dragged himself to his bathroom to shower.

"Son of a bitch!" He shouted, thinking about Shika either made is blood boil with lust or anger. The damn man needed to make up his mind. Being a world renowned Entomologist, he was being called in to study in Turkey. He needed an answer now!

"What has you so upset hun?" A voice called swearing Shino forced a smile to his face. He totally forgot about his 'boyfriend'. Shino watched as the door to the shower slid open revealing his naked lover.

"Kankuro babe, I just stubbed my toe on the shower door." Shino hated lying to his boyfriend, it's all that damned lazy man's fault! Kankuro chuckled his eyes not twinkling as it used to. He knows. Kankuro got into the stall and snuggled against Shino.

"I'll pretend that's your reason, I'll wash your back for you." Shino kept quiet. What could you possibly say when you boyfriend is basically saying he knows you were cheating on him and he'll ignore it. Nodding silently Shino gave Kankuro his back so the other could wash it.

"Wanna talk about it?" Kankuro whispered. Shino stiffened under his gentle hands. For some reason Kankuro was a bit scary. Why is he so understanding.

"How long have you known?" The question left my mouth before i could stop it. Kankuro chuckled softly, and a bit darkly.

"You don't spend 4 years with someone and not notice these things." I sighed but kept quiet. Kankuro turned me around to wash my chest. I couldn't bring myself to meet his gaze, though he was just 3 inches taller than me.

"So you gonna answer my question?" I could feel my eyes turning burning. It must be red.

"I...I don't.." He raised my head with fingers under my chin. I looked at the water sliding down the shower door, still not looking at him.

"It's ok you know, the way how I see it, you've loved him before you decided to let me have you, I too cheated occasionally Shino." Shino opened his mouth to say something but a shocked choking noise escaped instead.

"You didn't realize Wow, Shika has turned your mind into a puddle, love." Kankuro chuckled and watched Shino turned bright red.

"I..I can't stop thinking about him, but he has a girlfriend." Kankuro stared down at Shino and rose a brow.

"You do realize that his girlfriend is my sister right? So I know what's going on."

"Then why'd you ask?!" Shino shouted frowning. Kankuro pinched Shino's butt and turned to leave the shower to get dressed for to leave for Naruto's.

" 'cause your upset face is sexy. Get out of the shower before you become a prune Shino." Shino cursed and tossed a bottle of shampoo at Kankuro's head who ducked into for it to whiz over his head.

2hours later~~~

Shino and Kankuro were pulling into Naruto's driveway, both bickering and laughing. Shino looked at Kankuro and couldn't help but be grateful for him. Shino hugged Kankuro has they stopped in front of Naruto's door.

"Dumbasses! Must you be so damn loud!" Naruto shouted yanking is door open and pulling his friends in. Shino hugged Naruto and headed for the kitchen he need glass a water. Having been to Naruto's house countless times he remembered where everything was. Pulling the fridge open he pulled out a bottle of spring water.
