Summary: Because life is split into a million fragmented colors, and one must experience them all before trying. 1, Red, KibaIno.

Rainbow

Red

(KibaIno)

Red is passion, is fire, is twirling on the dance floor until it hurts. Red is Ino’s red-soled black stilettos, and red is Ino dancing next to him, holding his hand, baby blue eyes cheerful and pale and effervescent.

Red is his Inuzuka clan markings, an angular teardrop on each cheek. Her pinkpink tongue slips out from between her redred lips and the she leaves on those markings is undeniably good. Blue eyes laugh and blonde hair twirls and Ino is miles away, laughing and beckoning.

He gives chase, Akamaru at his side, and the thrill of the chase calls to his blood and to hers. He catches her, a fang dipping down to leave one shining trail of red down her neck. She bites, hard, and the red imprints of her teeth reside on his collarbone.

A challenge. He opens his arms and she runs, red-soled stilettos flashing against eh black earth under the red sky, and he lets her go for five seconds before he chases, following her scent (she smells like red, like passion, like love and sex and forgetting until tomorrow) to the tree. Redwood, with red-brown wood and red-green leaves and red-gray squirrels.

She is at the top, red-soled feet swinging, redred lips parted, blueblue eyes laughing in triumph. She lifts a pale, red-nailed hand, and then she’s beckoning to him. He lifts a hand to a tattooed cheek, and envisions her with red in her hair, and runs up the tree, branches drawing (redredred) blood.

From the sky there fall red, burning stars, and you look at her and tell her to make a wish.

It comes true.
