Prologue

The young girl was sitting on the bench in one of the most urban parks, trembling uncontrollably despite of the warm humid weather. She hugged her legs to her busty chest, burying her face into her arms. Rocking back and forth, she ignored her large headache and the cramps from her stomach.

The need to get high was becoming unbearable for her. She couldn't sleep nor keep her mind from it. She knew it wasn't right. It wasn't her fault that she was like this. The images of her father's disappointment and the look of disgust from her younger sister made her want to be more high.
To forget. To be happy. To be on cloud nine.
On my way to Cloud Nine.

Pulling out the bag of the small crystals, she licked her chapped lips. With trembling hands, the Hyuuga pulled out the crystals, rolling them in between her dirty fingers as she then pulled out her rolled up joints. Slipping the tiny crystals into the joints she then pulled out her lighter, pressing the poisonous drug against her heart-shaped lips.

She was once beautiful. She still was. But she had lost a lot of weight due to not eating much. Her once clear skin was now blotchy. Her teeth were not tinted yellow and her lips, scorched. Her once silky violent-blue hair was now a crow-black, pulled into a messy ponytail. She had dark bags under her lavender-colored eyes and her cheeks were slightly sunken in.
Flicking on the lighter with shaky hands, she inhaled the poison into her system once the joint was lit, sighing softly in relief. A small smile spread across her lips as she then leaned back against the bench. Her head rolled back, her head hanging off the bench as she stared at the night-sky, the drug making her mind go blank.

"H-hinata?" A raspy voiced called for her. She recognized that voice. Turning toward where the source of sound came from, she quickly sat up, the joint slipping from her fingers as her eyes widened.
"N-naruto." her soft voice replied as she looked at the short blonde, her cheeks tinted pink from embarrassment.
The two classmates stared at each other for a few minutes until Naruto broke the silence.

"What are you doing here?" He paused for a few seconds before looking back over to her. He knew what she was doing to herself. The smell was in the air. "W-where were you?"

Her eyes traveled to the source of her high and back to her former crush and classmate. She rubbed her clothed arm, nervously licking her lips again. "A-around."
Although she was a drug addict she was still the girl that everyone used to know. Still shy and kind-hearted like she used to be.
"Hinata...You need help." His reply was a bit of a surprise to her. She looked away from him as he neared closer, picking up the joint that fell on the ground. She gasped softly, reaching toward her only source of high, her Cloud Nine.
"No! " Getting up quickly, she walked toward him quickly as he backed away.
"You're sick Hinata!" His voice rose in anger as he held up the poison from her reach, his brows furrowing, though inside, it broke his heart to see this girl this way.

"Give it back!" She snapped loudly, out of character now as she desperately reached for her goal. Tears welled up in her eyes as the only thing that made her happy was being taken from her.

Ignoring the burning at the end of the joint, her crushing it in his hands, ripping it apart quickly, as he then let it fall to the littered ground. He watched as her brows narrowed, watching as the rest of the pieces fall to ground.
Wiping her tears quickly, she then glared up at him, the next thing coming out her mouth surprised him. She then ran off into the night.

He watched her run, his face blank as his thoughts ran back to her declaring that she hated him.
