Hinata Drops
(Sequel to Secrets of a Hyuuga. Named after my favorite song but replaced Sakura with Hinata. Sakura Drops by Utada Hikaru. Anyways this takes place after they are married. They are going to be newly weds. Okay on to the story.)
It's been five years since he gave me my first kiss. It's been five months since Haishi-sama approved to marry my love. And it's been five days since our wedding. Our honeymoon would have been longer but Haishi-sama has requested for us to some back home. He said we should start our lives as husband and wife early. I disapprove but I can't argue with my father. I thought that love was like a fantasy where the prince marries the princess and they live happily ever after. But I guess there is that one person to ruin it all, in this case it is my very own father!
"Sasuke!" I called rushing to the back of the house. Another mission was for Sasuke and he had to leave again. I know it! Outside Sasuke was throwing kunai at a tree.
"Hn." Now and days his voice didn't seem cold and distant like before. Maybe because I know him better.
"You know we do have a training area inside our house. You don't have to hurt the precious trees." I said. Sasuke smirked rolling his eyes.
"Yeah, whatever." He muttered. I smiled at him. That 'yeah, whatever' meant to me, 'okay sweetie.'
"You have another mission." I said handing him the folded letter. He took it and read it over. "Is it good?" I asked.
"Another c-classed mission. When is he ever going to give me good missions? He gives me so many d-classed and c-classed mission I don't even got time to train." Sasuke said. 'He' was Naruto. Naruto has become the Hokage. I don't regret not having anymore feelings for him. Tsunade-sama has died. She died in a war against another village. Even though she did take down the other Hokage as well we still have grief. We even have a festival for her.
"I understand. Well I'm going back to cooking. And please Sasuke don't hurt the poor trees." I turned around about to walk off but he caught me off guard.
"Hinata are you coming tonight, with me?" he asked. His voice was stern and now it seemed cold. He must have been talking about 'him.'
"Yes. I'll come." I whispered before walking off. Every month Sasuke and I would visit his dead brother. He buried him. Even though he says he has no love towards his brother, I know he does. I mean five years ago he even said he missed him. But I don't want to argue anymore. I walked back to the kitchen where Akira (which is a man) was cutting up tomatoes.
"Finally back, my dear?" he asked. I shrived at the way he talked. I don't want to call him gay but Sasuke thinks he is. Sasuke's exact words were 'let's get a gay chef so when I come back from a mission I won't find you half naked on the kitchen table with him.' The fact that we even got a chef was I did lack some kitchen skills. Sure I could cook a few things but advanced things I couldn't cook!
"Yes Akira. Let's get cooking!" I said picking up the biggest knife nest to me. Then the phone rung. Akira put his hand on his hip.
"Oh my god. When are we going to cook?" he said. I shrived again. Might as well get a female chef. I smiled to Akira and picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hinata, my daughter, how is your marriage coming?" the voice of the devilish Haishi-sama spoke.
"Fine thank you. Thank you for paying things like the chef and bills for a first few months. Naruto is still giving out bad missions."
"Seems like it if you are going to have the worst ninja of Kohana be our superior." He muttered.
"Father. What is the real reason you request my presence?" I asked a little irritated.
"I like your tone of voice. If only you was like that when you were younger. Such a pleasant heir." He went off of track.
"Father I have no time for your shenanigans (games) please just tell me." I demanded. Now that my father was old, he liked to play with your mind. I found it annoying.
"Yes, Hinata. I want you to visit me tomorrow. I have a request. And remember you are my daughter. You will always have time for my shenanigans!" he hung up the phone making me slam the phone down.
"Sasuke brings out the devil in you, eh?" Akira asked. I smiled at him just realizing what I have done.
"Maybe so, but I still love him." I muttered cutting up the peppers with my knife at rapid speed.
"Honey, Honey go slower. You might chop your beautiful fingers off." He said grabbing my hands making me stop cutting. Oh no, he wasn't gay.
"Akira… don't be offended but… are you gay?" I asked. Akira's eyes went wide.
"How ever can you think that, my dear Hinata?"
I yanked my hands away from him and rushed back towards Sasuke.
"Sasuke he's not gay!" I shouted. When I came outside Sasuke's kunai was on the floor and his eyes were in shock too! He slowly walked pasted me and I followed him into the kitchen.
"Are you gay, Akira?" asked a very concered husband.
"Why heavens no! If I was I would have been try to hit on you!" he said giving a wink.
"You're fired!" Sasuke yelled "Fired! Fired! Fired!"
"Why? Sasuke?" Akira asked.
"Because you're not gay. And if you were gay… ew!" Sasuke yelled. I saw the red in Sasuke's eyes. I sort of felt bad for him. (Me too.) Akira slowly walked out our house. Sasuke continued walking back to his previous location. Poor Sasuke. I sighed and continued cutting up the peppers. My mind wondered back to my father, Haishi-sama. I know he is dying but I can't help to get mad at him. He always says something that irritates me.
You are my daughter. You will always have time for my shenanigans.
Translating it wasn't difficult for me. Having to suffer years of it I knew exactly what it meant.
You have to do anything I say. You are the Hyuuga slave.
That's what it meant. I hated the feeling of them words. I took out my anger for my father on the peppers. Leaving them sliced and diced into one thousand different pieces. I sighed once more heading upstairs to get ready for tonight.
After Hinata gets dressed
I was sitting downstairs waiting for Sasuke. I wore a short black dress. (Something like the ones they wore for the third Hokage's funeral.) I played with a strand of my navy blue hair. I remember when I was of the age twelve, my hair can towards my ear but now it is at my middle back. I should cut it but I'm not going to yet. Sasuke has also grew out his hair too. He resembles Itachi a little bit. Sasuke refuses to cut his hair. I don't know why but I guess that's just a reminder of his brother.
"Hinata-chan you ready?" he asked. Now he was standing in front of me. He wore his usually Uchiha attire but not the white shorts. He wore dark wash jeans. Couldn't he wear something more respectful?
"Yeah, let's go." I whispered. We walked outside our home to Kohana. Most people stared at us weird. I thought they would be used to it since it has been five years. I glanced over to Sasuke who was growling back at people.
"Sasuke?" I whispered. He stopped and ignored them. When we arrived at the cemetery I brought three flowers from the store settled next to it. For three minutes I mourn with my husband. I usually spend this time to think about my past with them.
Itachi, well he brutal and secretive. It's hard to find out what's on his mind. I did the worse possible thing by killing off a clan but he must have had a strong hate against it. I gently placed my flower on his tombstone.
"Sasuke I'm going to the other two okay?" I whispered. His eyes were closed shut and he was silent.
"Hn."
I walked away over to Tsunade-sama's tombstone.
"Kami-sama I hope you is treating Tsunade-sama nicely. She did a lot for us and I want to know that she is drinking all the sake that there is in heaven." I prayed. It wasn't a very sad prayer but it was nice to say such wonderful things. "She gave up a lot and was young when she died. I know she floated up there when the other Kage killed her. Please keep her in good hands." I removed my hands from the ball they were in. I place another flower there. One more left. I walked to the last tombstone and started praying yet one more time.
"She was a brave ninja. She fought for Kohana with all her heart. She gave much. She hasn't even seen how much her child has developed. Kami-sama please give her all the respect she needs. That's what she gave me. One of my best friends and she died in a war. And the last thing she ever gave me… I've ruined. I feel ashamed." I felt the tears fall down my face and I tightened my grip, "I hope that Ten Ten is up there somewhere. She really was a true friend." I separated my hands and bowed lightly. The last thing she ever gave me was that white and black kimono. It was beautiful and some child spilled juice on it. I feel bad because I never got a chance to really appreciate that. When Tsunade-sama told us that Ten Ten died, Neji was very mad! I remembered what Tsunade said after seeing Neji so mad and Ten Ten's death before her eyes.
"I'm not going to let another one fall. My followers are going to stand even if I can't."
Those words haunt me because she was right. After Ten Ten's death Tsunade was the last of them. Naruto was upset too. Then he sweared his life he would become the greatest Hokage that ever lived. I don't blame him. Almost all of our Hokages have died because of war. I wiped the tears from my face and placed the flower down.
"Rest In Peace." I whispered. I whipped the last little bit of tears from before and sighed. Sasuke should be ready to go now. I walked quietly over to Sasuke but I heard him say something.
"I've learned how to activate my Mangekyou sharingan. Never told you before. I didn't even tell Hinata. I've learned it not soon after we killed you. I've kept it a secret for so many years that I'm happy to get it off my chest." Was he talking to his brother? Probably. That's nice though because before he didn't talk to him at all unless it was about revenge. "Tomorrow I have a mission. I've told Hinata that it was a c-classed mission. That's a lie. It's a S-classes mission. She'll probably panic and worry about such a strong mission. Naruto told me that he would advance my rank if I have success. Being a Jonin is fun but I know being an ANBU member is better. Naruto is a fool. Because we are in yet another war he is try to defeat them in any possible way. Killing on of the Kage's guard isn't going to be hard. Escaping is. sigh I'm going to find Hinata. Rest well until I come back." Sasuke placed his flower on the tombstone. I walked up to Sasuke slowly.
"Let's go home, we don't want to wake up late." I said messing with my hair yet again.
"Yeah sure" he muttered. We walked home quietly. Sasuke wasn't the one to start a conversation. But I knew what to say now.
"What do you need for your mission? Maybe a well cooked meal before you leave?" I said tugging at his arm.
"Don't waste your time. I just need a fresh shower and a nice cozy bed." He yawned. He wasn't cracking. We walked again in silence. Not fun. Now it's time for the random questions!
"Sasuke?"
"Hn."
"What do you think about having kids? You know when do you think we're ready." I asked. This question has been on my mind for days. I wanted kids and plenty of them. But Sasuke's attitude didn't seem like he enjoyed them much. But the thing was… I've never slept with him. Nope note even on our honeymoon. As a matter of fact he hasn't even seen me naked.
"Let's save that topic for later. I'm tired." Sasuke stifled a fake yawn. He wasn't ready. He dragged his body across the house. Amused took a seat on our bed and started reading a book. I watch him bandage up his little wounds. He brushed back his hair too. He also packed some clothes and food into a book bag. And he did it all in under an hour. I rubbed my eyes with my finger. I was tired from the cemetery and praying for the lost ones. Sasuke looked at me over his shoulder.
"You should sleep you know." He muttered. I smiled placing my book down on the bed.
" I know but watching you prepare for missions is so amusing. You do it so quickly." He smirked taking off his shirt. I blush pulling my face away. This has been happening for weeks now and I still act like a child. He climbed into to bed and whispers a soft,
" Good Night Hinata." I smile again.
"Good night Sasuke." I drifted off next to my husband.
My dream was awkward that night. At first I was wounded on the ground. Only shredded clothes on my back and a proud Kohana head band on my head. I try to stand up to my feet. It took all the strength I had left. Then two dark figures appeared in front of me. One I recognized as soon as the words come out its mouth.
"You have disappointed me Hinata. I had aspect great things from you and you can't even take your very own husband back from Orochimaru. Shame. You are useless." The one figure turned around to reveal my father. His hair was now a gray and eyes were a bit dark to be a Hyuuga but his heart was harder than before. The other figure turned around and was my own Sasuke.
"Sasuke." I whispered. I bent my knees more trying to support my weight.
"You bring me down more and more Hinata. You aren't strong but yet a weak Hyuuga. Annoying Haruno is stronger than you. The other Hyuuga girl, five years younger than you are can beat you. You are a waste of my time." His words sunk in more and more to me. It seemed so real. I dropped to my knees feeling the pain from my very own husband. The tears blurred the view of my husband walking off and my father's smirk. Before he walked so far way he turned around. He parted his lips to revile the most devastating words I heard,
"I want a divorce. You are no longer an Uchiha."
My eyes flew open from the horrible dream. Can that really happen. I looked over towards Sasuke but noticed he was sleeping next to me. I looked around to find Sasuke putting on his book bag.
"Sasuke?" I whispered. He turned towards me. He looked a little mad maybe because I interrupted him. He walked over towards me and kissed me gently. His lips were cold but he warmed me up inside. He was still here with me. He parted from me. I looked right into his eyes to see his Sharingan activated. My mind started to spin as if I had three hundred bottles of sake. I dropped back on my bed. I was out cold.
I'm finally finished. YaY! I tried to work on this and make it really, really, really good but God was against me and made me all sick and stuff. I'm still sick. On Thursday , 27th of Sept. I went home early because I felt sick and was all dizzy and stuff. I lost balance when I was walking towards the teacher's desk and almost fell. (you can laugh) I went to the nurse and my mom had to pick me up. You are so lucky that I'm kind enough to update when recovering from sickness!
