Chapter 3

Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Naruto

A/N: I know it's been a long time since I've updating, been busy anyhow, let's get started yeah?

Kiba was walking to get some breakfast when he bumped into two of Konoha's notorious gossips, Ino and Sakura, who were of course, bickering over Sasuke, unexpected eh?

"Hey Kiba, how's it going?" Ino asked.

"Pretty good, just grabbing some breakfast," Kiba said nervously.

"Kiba, wanna go grab some breakfast with us? We're getting a bite too!" Sakura insisted.

"Sure..."

Once they were in the restaurant, Ino and Sakura didn't bother beating around the bush.

"Soo...Kiba, lately I've noticed that you've been hanging around Hinata's house lately..." Said Ino casually, she wasn't just sniffing for gossip, she had a feeling that Kiba's courtship of Hinata wasn't going smoothly as planned.

"U-uh um...yeah, I've been um, just looking out for her..." Kiba said while turning beet red.

"Be right back you guys, I need to use the restroom" Sakura said, while running toward the toilets.

"That girl and her bladder...anyhow, Kiba, I know what you've been doing, and it's okay, I can help you out."

"So you know about the letters...?" Kiba said nervously.

"Yup, and don't worry, I'll chat with her casually and deliver her letters personally to you 'kay?" Ino said with a wink.

"Wow, that's oddly generous of you Ino, what's your motive...?" Kiba said suspiciously.

"No real motive, I just think that if Hinata had a boyfriend she would be more relaxed and less shy. You wouldn't believe how long I've tried to get her to get out of her shell."

"Thanks so much Ino, you're the best!"

"Now I've got to pee, be right back!" Ino said leaving for the bathroom, just as Sakura was leaving.

"Ino, what were you and Kiba talking about, I can just smell you've got some gossip" Said Sakura slyly.

"I've finally found a way to get Hinata a boyfriend, all I have to do is deliver a letter from her and boom! Boyfriend central!"

"Hmm, the more the merrier, I think I'll do the same thing, after all it can't hurt right?"

After everyone finished breakfast and went their separate ways, Ino and Sakura felt that they should go and find Hinata. After running around for a while, they found her and dragged her behind some bushes.

"Wha-what are you guys doing?" Hinata said, still trembling from her scare.

"We know you're secret..." Said Sakura deviously.

"What secret?" Said Hinata nervously.

"Your little crush silly, and your love notes too!" Said Ino girlishly.

At that Hinata simply blushed, she had been found out.

"So what are you guys planning to do?" Hinata asked, afraid of what their reply was going to be.

"We'll deliver them!" Said the pink haired and blond haired girl.

"Just write a note and we'll get them to you-know-who..." said Sakura.

"U-um, okay I guess, thanks guys."

Hinata lead Ino and Sakura home, and wrote a two letters, both saying the exact same thing one for Ino the other for Sakura.

"Why exactly do I have to write two?"

"BECAUSE Hinata, so me and Sakura can see who can deliver it first!" Ino said laughingly.

Hinata finished and handed each girl a letter.

"You're sure you know who to deliver these to...?"

"Positive!"

And so they both ran off to deliver the letters. Both heading in different directions.

"Feh, I guess Sakura doesn't know she's heading in the direction of Naruto's house."

"Heh, Ino doesn't know she's going the wrong way, Kiba's house is THAT direction!"

Ino crept to Kiba's doorstep and quickly slid the letter underneath his door, quickly knocking the door, she ran off to see if he'd see the letter. Sure enough, Kiba opened saw the envelope and smiled, closing the door while Ino smiled.

"I totally beat Sakura at this one!"

Sakura neared Naruto's house, she didn't know whether he was asleep or not so she decided to take her chance and quickly sneak it into his mailbox.

Unfortunately for Sakura, Naruto spotted her coming and stood poised, watching her as she slid the letter into his mailbox. He waited till she was a distance away before opening the mailbox.

And now...the story's over! Just kidding!

xo Kiba's House ox

Kiba opened the note with his heart thumping excitedly and began to read:

Hey, this is...well you should know who I am by now. I wanted you to know that as out of character as this is, would you be willing to meet me at the ramen stand tomorrow at seven o'clock? No need to send back a reply, just show up on time. xoxo

Kiba reread this short but sweet note, while on the other side of Konoha, Naruto was reading the same notes.

"Wow, who would've though SAKURA felt that way about me!" Naruto said to himself after reading the note. Apparently the sight of Sakura slipping the letter into his mailbox caused him to believe that Sakura was the one who wanted to meet with him for ramen. And so as both boys sighed with happiness and counted the hours till the next day, Hinata had no idea what was in store for her.
