Summary: Kiba tries to comfort Hinata during a difficult mission. 30_kisses entry.
The waves crashed against the rocks, spray scattering in the chill autumn air. Hinata sat farther up along the beach and watched the sea beat angrily at the rocks, her knees pulled up to her chest and a blanket around her shoulders.
"How do you feel?"
She glanced up as Kiba came over, a steaming cup in each hand. He handed her one and she thanked him softly. The coffee was strong but she didn't mind too much; the bitterness was a nice distraction.
Kiba took a seat beside her, his hair mussed by the wind. She hesitated and then offered him some of the blanket and he grinned.
"Thanks. Akamaru's back at the camp."
Hinata blushed a little but the extra body heat did wonders.
"I'm fine, Kiba-kun," she said after a long pause and looked down at the cup in her hands. Her thumb traced the pale blue line that surrounded the lip, perfectly straight despite the rest of the cup's imperfections.
"You sure?"
She nodded and curled up into the blanket more as the wind picked up. The waves crashed loudly and faded into a dull thrum, only to repeat again. The cup in her hand cooled quickly, only half full.
"Yes."
Kiba glanced over at her, his cheeks red beneath his tattoos, and leaned in suddenly. Hinata blushed as he pressed his lips to her forehead.
"K-kiba-kun...?"
He pulled away with a frown on his face. "You feel warm to me."
She blushed more. "Y-you're supposed to check with the back of your hand..."
Kiba looked sideways and if she didn't know better Hinata would say he pouted. "I know that." He moved out from under the blanket and then wrapped it around her shoulders again. "C'mon, we should get back. Shino's gonna worry."
Hinata glanced at her coffee again and then stood, the blanket still pulled around her. A bird called overhead, the sound nearly drowned out by the waves.
"Thank you, Kiba-kun."
He shrugged but couldn't hide the small smile on his face as he gently pulled her along with him, and Hinata smiled for the first time since the mission began.
