Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Notes: The idea suddenly got me while reading through the list on my profile page. The last few one shots I've written have been Ibiki-Hinata and Shikamaru-Hinata, so for my fellow Sasuke-Hinata fans I bring you this.
Heal
When you have nothing, no goals, no love or hate, are you even human? Or are you just broken?
"You're a medi-nin. You should know how to fix people. How do you fix a broken person."
Hinata stopped, her hand resting over the deep gash on his chest, his words twisting themselves in her mind.
They were in the hospital. The white blinding walls burning into their brains and the smell of over cleanliness stuck on them even after washing. Another scents were noticeable as well, a strong scent of blood and tears, sweat and fear, sadness and depression. It was a hospital like any other.
"Well? Don't have an answer Hyuuga?" The man on the bed mocked, still Hinata was frozen not knowing what to say. The blood still seeped through his wound and she could feel the smooth texture even through her gloves. He heaved a sigh, "Figures, still useless even after all these years."
It struck her hard, awaking from her stupor she looked at him with her wide soft pale eyes. Hinata looked at him, it had been three years since he had left, she noticed that he too had changed.
His hair was longer and his pitch black eyes were emptier, taller and more handsome with sharp features that tell people to 'stay away'. His face was turned from her, looking at the window.
But she had changed as well. Her indigo hair was longer, her body more mature, her mind stronger. Three years had passed, everyone changed.
"Y-You can't." She finally whispered as she set herself to heal his wound, warm light green chakra covered her gloved hands and set itself about closing his cut.
There was silence, she felt the need to say more, "Y-you can't fix p-people. Only h-heal them."
It was done, his wound closed, and Hinata set about placing a dressing on, in case of pus or extra blood coming out.
He was watching her with his sharp dark empty eyes. After accomplishing his goal of killing his brother, he was gone. He had nothing left to look forward to in life, there was nothing for him.
She peeled off her gloves and threw them in the trash, "You're just as much of an idiot as Naruto is." He stated in a deadly calm voice before turning his head back towards the window.
"I-I'm not stupid, o-or useless and I-I'm not a-an idiot." she said in a strong, but still stuttering, voice and turned to leave. But before she could make it through the door she turned back to him.
"You're empty a-and cold. B-But somewhere i-in you is S-Sasuke Uchiha t-the little boy s-still crying for his f-family. Acknowledge h-him before you s-shut him away for good." She stopped and then whispered, "You c-can't fix people. Only h-heal."
She closed the door softly. He laid there alone in the cold white room, a small tear slipped from one of his dark onyx eyes and fell onto his pillow, disappearing into the white fabric.
"Heal me."

A bit sad. I don't think you can fix people, I mean we aren't machines. Our veins aren't wires, you can only heal a person.
