Wine for Three or Free - closed rp with Naruto-Desu-Ka and Lavender-Heiress
Things hadn’t been so good for Kiba lately, as if the universe had singularly selected him and decided that it would be best if his life started to take a downward spiral. At first he had just thought it was an off day but an off day soon turned into an off week and it was hardly long before that off week grew into an off month. Just when things began to look up, Kiba found them spiralling down once more like a swift kick in the groin from the universe sent directly Kiba’s way.
Everything seemed to be affected by it… His efforts in mission had been deteriorating which lead to the Inuzuka failing a D Rank of all things. He could hardly stomach it, making him sick to the core with how badly he had done. Akamaru was at the compound being treated for lice, Kiba’s apartment having a rather bad multiple insect infections that even Shino couldn’t take care of… now the damn building was getting taken down and he had to look for a new place to live, his possessions all in a storage space that he was just barely managing to pay for. Perhaps it didn’t help that a large amount of Kiba’s money was going to buying himself alcohol, spending many nights out and about with other groups of friends so he wouldn’t be drinking alone.
Monday was Naruto and Hinata at the bar, the lovely couple offering to pay for his drinks but his pride wouldn’t allow it. Tuesday had him at the bar once again with the Ino-Shika-Cho trio as well as Shino, the five meeting up after two missions to the same location outside of Konoha. Wednesday was with Kankuro at his hotel room and though things risked getting heated, Kiba passed out before anything happened between them… say what you want about Kankuro, once Kiba passed out he was the perfect gentleman… only a little light squeezing of the ass. Thursday had him with Kotetsu and Izumo, not actually minding the pairs company if it wasn’t for how involved they were with each other. Friday was a lovely night at Kurenai’s… unfortunately there wasn’t much alcohol so he ended up getting another drink with Tenten, Sakura and Ino. Saturday met him alone, wallowing away in his own drunken sadness while Sunday had him busy on a mission with Sai, the smiling artist being the only reason they actually succeeded in the mission.
Now it was Monday again and it seemed a cycle was to be made, Kiba being invited to go and join the lovely couple of Hinata and Naruto in their home for dinner. Usually he would pass but even with that mission done, his cash was low and he desperately needed a free meal… and a drink. Though in truth, he wondered if they would let him drink as he knew that everyone in their little social circle talked… especially when Ino was involved in it. He doubted that there was any possibility that the pair couldn’t know about his… what some people would call… his drinking problem.
Nevertheless, Kiba dressed in his best clothing which mind you wasn’t very impressive anyway. He wore a dark blue button up shirt with short sleeves that showed off the muscles in his arms, chest and abdomen though that was mostly due to it being a bit older and him out growing it slightly. Accompanying the shirt was his black trousers and black boots, Kiba’s hands tucked away in the pockets of his pants before he withdrew one to knock on the door of Naruto and Hinata’s shared apartment. Like a true guest he brought a gift… a bottle of wine he hoped they would later overlook so he could chug it down… it was possible that Kiba dealt with problems the same way most deadbeat dads did though he wasn’t sure as his had run off since Tsume never gave him the chance to be dead beat.
