Kiba softly prodded Hinata with a chop stick.
"Good girl..." he snorted.
He appeared a bit more relaxed than a bit ago. Kiba seemed to have figured out things and even seemed a bit brighter.
"Remember...Us ninja must avoid showing emotion..."

Staring at the chopsticks which Kiba had decided to use to prod her with, Hinata smiled. His next comment did nothing but help to make the small smile grow a little more, before she decided to shoot back with a comment. "Prodding someone w-with chopsticks is b-bad manners," she smiled.
Hinata couldn't help but feel a little... well, she couldn't really describe it. The words once again failed to come to mind. "I k-know that," she sighed, placing down her own chopsticks pointing to the left. If there was one thing that Hinata did know, that was her manners.

"Well, doesn't mean we can't have a few laughs now and again." frowned Kiba.
He gave Hinata a soft pat on the shoulder, putting his chop sticks down next to his bowl.
"I'll be good..." Kiba said, smirking slightly. "Just, don't hurt me...I can be quite afraid of you, you know?"

Hinata nodded, smiling more widely now. It was strange, to be honest. How an uncomfortable situation or a misunderstanding seemed to increase the bonds of people’s relationships with others. “Yes, I suppose at t-times, it will b-be fun…” she smiled.
Feeling the pat on her shoulder, Hinata started to feel a little more reassured about the fact that she did have a role on this team. “Afraid?” she questioned, seeming surprised and puzzled. Why would he be afraid of her..? To some people, she was harmless, after all.

"You are from the Hyuuga clan, after all." Kiba snorted.
He pushed his hood off again, looking down at his empty bowl. He felt as empty...It wasn't like he had a crush on Hinata or anything. Maybe Kiba was just protective...?
"Maybe if we hang around long enough, Naruto and his team may show up."

For a split second, a frown danced upon Hinata’s features. For a long time now, it seemed as though people were judging Hinata on the basis of her last name and after awhile, it did grow a little tiresome. Yet, she couldn’t fault anyone because if she had been anyone else, she would have automatically thought of the same thing.
“Do you t-think so?” Hinata asked, trying not to sound too hopeful. Okay, so she was, but then there was the whole thing about her not realising that half of the Academy probably knew about her crush.[/color]

"Well, of course. Even if you weren't from the Hyuuga clan, you'd most likely be able to kick any ninja's butt." commented Kiba, most likely missing the point. "You are more powerful than you think you are, Hinata-sama. But, you've got to figure it out that what people say about you being helpless isn't true at all. They are the weak ones. They haven't the slightest idea of what they are talking about..."
Kiba smiled again, "Everyone with a brain can figure that out. Maybe Naruto will even be able to see what I can see in you...I would--"
He was cut off, by a hyperactive person whom rushed ahead of everyone in his team to arrive at the little ramen stand first. This person was grinning, causing Kiba to smile, and move over a seat, leaving a free one next to Hinata...
"FINALLY! LUNCH!" Uzumaki Naruto shouted.
He stopped, to stare at the other people in the shop. Naruto's grin grew even bigger, to see his old classmates sitting in the shop.
"KIBA!! HINATA!! YOU GUYS ARE HERE!"
Naruto scrambled into the seat next to Hinata, laughing cheerfully. His bright blue eyes first travled over to Kiba, giving him a wave, then, they went back to Hinata.
"So, you guys are on the same team?!" Naruto questioned, while Kiba snorted.

Hinata couldn’t think of any words to say as she listened to Kiba. She hadn’t expected any of that to come from him, although now she was hearing it she couldn’t bring herself to stop him. Maybe she was just used to being told that she needed to improve if she wanted a chance to do anything right, or maybe it was just herself lacking the self-confidence she needed. She had to prevent herself from questioning Kiba’s use of ‘sama’ as an honorific, although it was as if she couldn’t bear to make him stop those words that were coming from him. She had almost brought herself to say a faint ‘thank you’ although a distraction had decided to present itself.
A distraction in the form of Uzumaki Naruto.
How could she explain it? She was surprised when Kiba had moved away from the seat he had been sitting in, and even more surprised at Naruto actually moving to sit in that empty seat. It was as if nothing had ever changed. Naruto was still as cheerful as she always seemed to have been, although that could have had something to do with the fact that they were somewhere where ramen obviously was. She looked over at the blonde boy for a moment, before looking away as her face tinged pink. “Hello, N-Naruto-kun,” she greeted, before deciding that she would have to answer his next question because it would have been rude for her not to, “Yes, we are…”[/color]

Kiba just grinned, ordering himself another bowl of chicken ramen. Naruto looked directly in front of the table,
"The usual pllleeeaassee!" Naruto called out to the chef.
He turned again, to look at Hinata, just being able to catch the signature blush. Naruto raised his thin eyebrow, staring at Hinata. Every time he'd see theis girl, she'd be all flushed. Eh.
"Hey, Hinata...You look sick." Naruto said, sounding slightly concerned. "You haven't been getting a lot of bed rest, have you? You always have a fever or something..."
Kiba rolled his eyes. Typical Naruto...The biggest dimwit alive. One day, just one day, this cerazy child had to figure out the truth, even if Kiba was the one to tell him.
-I really should tell the kid. He is so clueless, it is starting to become less funnier all the time.- Kiba thought, with a weary sigh. -That would save Hinata the trouble having to go through the stuttering...I don't think she'd ever be able to tell Naruto how she feels.-
Kiba frowned slightly. Naruto seemed to be one lucky guy to have a girl fancy him...

Just because Naruto had brought up the suject of her blushing, which she really couldn't help, Hinata's blush deepened. Of course, even if it was totally misunderstood, she was a little happy that he was concerned over her wellfare, even if she was perfectly healthy. Unconciously, she looked away a little bit more, starting to feel a little bit cornered now. "I'm okay... not sick," she mumbled underneath her breath.

Naruto frowned slightly, Kiba trying to muster a smile.
-That Naruto...- Kiba thought, with a sigh.
Naruto blinked, then, tapped Hinata on the shoulder, "You know, if you aren't feeling well...You should just go home. I don't know much about sickness, but, you look sick..."
Kiba couldn't hold it in any longer...Not that anything was to be held in a moment earlier. He burst out in laughter, Akamaru sitting on the table, just staring.
Naruto turned in his chair, blinking.
"Is everyone sick around here?" he questioned, turning back to Hinata, Kiba's laughter growing louder.
( Short as well )

Hinata was feeling a little helpless now. It didn't seem as though Naruto really believed that she really was healthy, although with him bringing the idea of her being sick up, it helped to give her a small cover about why she kept blushing. Well, until he eventually found out about her little crush. The contact from him tapping her caused her to feel... well, a little more surprised and depending on good your hearing was, one could have possibly heard the tiniest squeak come from her. Once again, her blush deepened, and Kiba's laughter wasn't making her feel any better about this.
"No, we're b-both fine, N-Naruto-kun," Hinata reassured, not looking directly at Naruto.
{No. Your reply was long!} [/color]

"I'll have chicken ramen!" Mizu shouted as she rushed in dramatically. "Hello Kiba, hi Hinata." She said smiling to the other two genin. "Note to self make Naruto fall in love with Hinata." The lunar kunoichi thought already planning to help Hinata hook up with Naruto.
Mizu decided things like this quite often, and they usually sucessful.

Kiba made a fist, sending it down on the table, glaring daggers at Mizu.
"You do that, I'll see to it you'll wake up tomorrow morning...IN THE OCEAN!" he hissed.
Naruto paid no notice to Kiba and Mizu, busy staring at the back of Hinata's head.
"You sure? You always get me to question." Naruto said, with a sigh.
-Girls are quite confusing. This is why I try my best to avoid them...If I don't need to be involved with them. Why couldn't they just be more like boys?- Naruto questioned himself.

" I love the ocean!" Mizu said happily. "But I'm busy tomorrow so that doesn't really work for me. How about next week?" She asked. Mizu then looked towards Naruto and started to giggle at his blindness towards Hinata's crush. "Anyways... Do you like your team Kiba? My team is great if you don't count that jerk Tayuya...." The brunette said nodding slightly.
