[NarutoFan08]

(I thought you were going to be Asuma. Now you're Kiba? Should I be Shikamaru or Naruto? Fuck it, I'll be Shika.)

Today was a rather hot day. It was almost unbearable to say the truth. The weather like this never got as bad as it was right now, and I honestly felt like a layer of sweat was building on my skin and making it's way through my shirt. It felt damp and nasty.

I let out a sigh and scratch my head. Maybe a trip to the pool would be a good way to cool off. I've never been there before, but it was pretty much out of options now. I couldn't go home and shower. My mom would just nag me to death.

Surprisingly, there's no one at the pool. I would have though that, on a day like this, there would be more people. Go figure.

Imma about to go in, dressed in only my green beach-shorts when I see someone surface on the other side. They must have been underwater. I squint my eyes "cause the sun's glare is blinding, and I realize who it is that I had just seen.

"Hey, Kiba, what's up man?" I wave. I don't know if he could hear me. His back is turned towards me, and he's pretty far into the deep end. All I can see is his head poking out of the water, his brown locks damped down with all the water from the pool. "What are you doing out here?"
