Birds, Bees and Cherry Juices
Ch. 1 "Cherry Juice, He Supposed."
I don't own Naruto, whatsoever. If I did, there would be no Uchiha [exempting Itachi]—those darn drama queens always be starting something!
A/N: I was always curious to how these talks would happen. I just couldn't find myself able to write it with a really harsh Hiashi, so I made him a bit fatherly—like the putty I know he truly is!
*DATTEBAYO*~*DATTEBAYO*
A small sound came from the back of Hiashi's throat that somehow resembled a grunt. He was caught unawares of the news that was presented to him by one of the branch member ladies tending to his daughters. He had expected the usual disappointing news of disobedience or failure that always awaited him when it concerned to Hinata, but not this.
"Hiashi-sama?" The woman before him dared to ask, taking the sound and the followed silence to be negative.
Snapping from his daze, Hiashi cleared his throat and waved his hand dismissively. "Yes, thank you for the report."
"Of course." The woman bowed slightly before she began to make her way out of the room.
"Oh, and if you will," Hiashi began to clear his desk of his previous task of signing papers and drafting letters. "Kindly bring Hinata and Hanabi to my office."
"Of course." The woman repeated before walking out, sliding the tatami screen door behind her.
Hiashi pulled a drawer from his desk and took the simple picture frame that was the only content of the drawer and placed it in front of him. He stroked the glass, outlining the image and shook his head lightly.
"Why'd you have to go?" He whispered, lowering his hand from caressing the picture frame.
Alone, Hiashi buried his face and sighed. If one would to inspect the man closer, one could say that his ears were bit pink and color flushed his face.
"It has come sooner than I had anticipated."
Hinata fumbled her fingers nervously as she stood in front of the screen door to her father's office. She feared to the reason to why she was suddenly summoned. Racking her brain for possible reasons, she worried herself more and became a nervous wreck.
My report card probably came in. Hinata flinched at the anticipated lecture. Or maybe he saw my match with Hanabi yesterday.
It was a friendly spar between the two sisters to show each other's progress, but because of Hinata's lack in Hyuuga training, she lost to Hanabi in the first few minutes, unable to block the advanced techniques. She supposed because she was still weak, but Hanabi assured her that it was due to her training—how shameful it was to be expected to know Hyuuga ways when she wasn't trained into it and instead being taught methods basic to shinobi.
At that moment, a new presence, the one who just occupied her thoughts, joined her in front of the screen door.
Hinata turned to face the person and saw her sister, five years junior to her, calm and collected. Hinata found herself awed at how mature the seven year old was compared to herself. She scrunched into herself even more.
"Sister." Hanabi gave a slight nod to her. "Shall we?"
Hinata bit the bottom of her lip and nodded, forcing her trembling hands to her side. Hanabi knocked on the screen door and waited for a "Come in," before sliding it opened.
"You summoned for us, father?" Hanabi coolly said as she entered the room, discretely tugging at her sister's jacket for her to do the same.
Hiashi had his back to them so Hinata didn't know whether or not she was going to get reprimanded; even so, she prepared for the worst. The two sisters sat in seiza just in front of their father's desk.
The man finally turned and faced his daughters.
Hinata and Hanabi's eyes widened. In front of them their father held a light blush and was basically sweating bullets.
"I-it has come to my attention," He cleared his throat of the slight stammer in his voice. "That you are both girls."
Hinata and Hanabi exchanged looks at each other. This was strange and they didn't like it one bit.
"Wh-what I meant to say was," Hiashi mentally scolded himself as he cleared his throat again. "Someday, you two will b-become, erm, w-women—o-or have already started your way to becoming one."
"I know that it's not really my place to tell you both of this, but," Hiashi trailed of and looked down at the floor, a small smile on his face as he sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck. He sighed before he looked at the two of them. "You see, when a girl becomes a woman, her body e-experiences slight ch-changes."
"Most of the changes happen in the outward appearance." Hiashi looked at his hands and began to twiddle his thumbs. "It's not very hard to say that it's true men and women are very different. The most notable differences would be their ch-chest area and their p-pri—ne-nether area. Th-things, uhm, g-grow in either one of the areas depending on the gender of a person. Women in particular, grow things on their chest that become assets yet curses."
The two sisters turned pale, getting a gist of the direction the conversation was heading.
"Wh-what I meant to say is—!" Hiashi caught his words and looked mortified at his two daughters who avoided his eyes. He sighed and shook his head, continuing on to get the experience over with. "There comes a time when, you girls specifically, know when those changes are going to happen."
Clearing his throat he stood and walked to them, sitting down just in front of them in the same manner they were. He took a hand from each of them in his and looked at their eyes—one of gray tint and the other lilac. "Hinata; Hanabi. One day, you'll wake up and find something odd about your body. One day, you'll wake up and find yourself with blood running down your legs."
Hinata's eyes grew wider, stunned at what she had just heard. Hanabi gagged, sticking her tongue out, turning paler.
"Don't panic during that time because you are not wounded. You just became a woman, that's all." Hiashi patted Hinata's shoulder, with all seriousness. "That, girls, is what you call your per—."
"F-father!" Hinata squeaked, turning redder by the second. "Kurenai-sensie has already explained to me."
"And Hinata me!" Hanabi cried out. "Please, please, please don't torture us so!"
And in that moment, Hiashi let all his being fall to the floor, giving a relieved sigh, letting go of Hanabi's hand and taking his hands off Hinata's shoulders.
That faithful mid-day, the Hyuuga compound could hear the gleeful shout from the Main Head's office quarters.
Hiashi looked up from his position on the floor at his daughters and gave a sheepish smile. "Thank Kurenai!"
The brief pleasant moment disappeared, and faster than a blink of an eye, Hiashi stood, smoothing out his clothes, a stern frown marred on his face. "You two are now dismissed."
Hinata and Hanabi stumbled out of the room, glad to be out of there.
Geez. I haven't been on for a while…
I took this request to try and test out if I still I got my pen so I can get to writing again. This was a pain to do 'cause I didn't know how to approach it.
It's going to be two-shot and that's that. Going to post up the second part soon.
Like it?
Hate it?
Thanks for reading~!
