story: I love you, always and forever.
by: Unbalanced Kiss
(: Sasuke&Hinata couple pairing with some side ones to.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Not now not later. Not today not tomorrow, or even for the rest of my existence. But wouldn't it be cool if I did?
Different colored balloons decorated the Hyuuga household. Music softly played throughout the house and the chatter of a small crowd could be heard. Hyuuga Hinata, not partaking in the conversation, sat comfortably on her sofa. A smile placed on her face as she watched her friends converse with one another.
She looked at the table full of gifts, twiddling her fingers nervously, wondering what exactly was placed inside each and every one of them. She then brought her attention to the Christmas tree straight across from where she sat. The lights reflected in her lavender eyes, red, blue, yellow, green, all blinking in different orders. "Happy Birthday, big sister!"
Short, slender arms wrapped around Hinata's sholders and a kiss was placed on her cheek. "Th-thankyou Hanabi" She gave her sister a sweet smile, a light shade of pink tinting her cheeks.
Loud, obnoxious knocking sounded from the front door and Hinata readied herself to get it, however, a hand on her sholder stopped her from getting up. Hinata looked at the grinning face of her younger sister. "Don't worry about it! I'll get it, just sit and relax Hinata"
She nodded her head absentmindedly and looked back to the Christmas tree, focusing her attention on the different ornaments that decorated it. Suddenly, as if without warning, a nose was almost touching her own and blue eyes were staring straight at her. "Happy Birthday Hinata-chan!"
Startled, she moved back quickly, her back hitting against the cushion. "N-n-naruto-kun!" He laughed and moved back, standing straight. "Startled you didn't I? Well, hope you don't mind but I dragged the teme along. Figured it's better then him moping around" His thumb pointed behind him where Sasuke stood, casually leaning on the railing, with his normal bored expression on.
"N-no, I do-don't mind" Hinata peeked behind Naruto to look at Sasuke, their eyes met and, embarrased, she brought her gaze to his feet, cheeks pink. "U-um. Th-thankyou f-for coming, Naruto-kun, Uchiha-san" Naruto patted her sholder, oblivious to her obvious blush, and asked, "So.... Have you seen Sakura?"
Hinata observed Naruto, his cheeks were slightly pink and the way he stood was awkward, his hand was rubbing the back of his head shyly.
Her brows furrowed and she felt a slight pang at his question. "Sh-she's p-probably i-in the kitchen" He grinned ear to ear "Thankyou!" She shook her head slightly, unaware of obsidian eyes carefully watching her. "it's n-no problem" She watched him walk away, her eyes lingering even when he was already gone. "You should probably just confess"
"It wo-wouldn't matter an-anyway. N-n-naruto-kun doesn't see m-me in th-that way" A hand automatically flung over her mouth as soon as the words left her mouth. She looked at Sasuke, a smirk played on his lips. "It's obvious, you know. The dobe's just too oblivious to even realize it" Shock slowly fading, she stared at him curiously before answering, "I kn-know"
"so why don't you? -- confess that is. You'll probably feel better afterwards"
"be-because..." He raised an eyebrow and she took in a deep breath. "because h-he l-lo-lov...." She swallowed, blinking back unwanted tears and tried again. "he l-loves Sakura-chan"
Her expression changed dramatically from passive to depressed. His changed to something she couldn't quite read. An awkward moment passed and Hinata opened her mouth to speak. "wh-why--" "Big sister! It's time to blow out the candles, come on! come onn!"
She tore her gaze away from Sasuke and looked toward Hanabi, who was tugging on her arm bringing her towards the dining room. Another arm grabbed her free one and she looked to see Sasuke gently gripping above her wrist. "H-hanabi. I'll b-be there in a m-minute"
Hanabi's hand left her arm and she sighed. "okay, but hurry up!" Hinata smiled at her impatience. "I will" She waited until she was alone with Sasuke before turning to face him.
"What were you going to ask?" His hand, almost reluctantly, fell to his side. Hinata shifted her weight to her side and started off awkwardly, "Wh-why do-does it matter t-to you, an-anyway?" Sasuke opened his mouth to speak but decided against it and shrugged, smirking at her. Hinata stared at him, confused. She was about to ask another question when she heard Hanabi calling for her in the next room.
"C-coming!" She turned to look back at Sasuke questioningly before walking off towards everyone else, hearing his footsteps behind her. After everyone ate their cake and icecream they told Hinata, excitedly, to open up her presents. She got things like clothes, teddybears, makeup, and weapons. She was sitting on the table with the last gift in her hand. There was a tiny card that read:
I'm glad you didn't confess.
She looked at it quizically before opening the tiny box, a beautiful gold necklace was placed carefully inside. Oddly, it was one that she had been admiring the night she went Christmas shopping. She gawked at it, unsure of what to do with it. Everyone went silent when she pulled it out of the box, carefully placing it in the palm of her hands, she found a small engraving in the middle. it read: I love you, always and forever.
Dark crimson painted her cheeks and she held it close to her heart as if that would calm it's racing. She stared at the crowd trying to decipher who would have bought the gift for her. She looked at Naruto, but he was immediately crossed off the list when she saw him holding hands with Sakura. She looked to Kiba, also a no, she knew about his secret relationship with Shino. She looked at Shikamaru.... but, he was obviously with Temari, no matter how much they denied it everyone could tell.
Chouji... well she barely had a conversation with him and he really likes Ino, almost as much as he likes food. Neji was her cousin and besides that fact, him and Tenten were already going out. Lee, well he was on a mission with Gai-sensei. Someone coughed beside her, bringing her attention, and everyone elses, towards him. Hinata gaped. Warm hands were placed on either side of her face, she was left staring into dark obsidian eyes. 'Sasuke.... Sasuke..... Sasuke?!? '
There was so much intensity in his eyes that Hinata was left speechless. She wouldn't have known what to say if someone was shot dead right then and there. The blush that stained her cheeks was so bad that it even started to reach her ears. "Hinata..." his voice was deep and husky and it made Hinata's heart pick up in speed, skipping beat every so often, she was sure Sasuke could hear it. "y-y-yes?" she managed to squeak out.
He smiled down at her, it was one of the sweetest smiles she had ever seen. 'my god... he's so...' His lips pressed to her own in a chaste kiss. 'perfect...' Everyone stood there, dumbfounded. Hinata, on the other hand, leaned into the kiss. And as soon as it started, it ended. Sasuke pulled away and leaned towards her ear, his warm breath sending chills down her back.
"Happy Birthday, Hinata"
And then she smiled...
The End.
