"G-Goodnight, Uchiha-san. I hope I-I won't disturb your sleep t-tonight…"

Sasuke shook his head no and continued removing his shirt, making Hinata blush and turn away. Sasuke smirked at her cuteness, making his way into the bed, and mumbling for her to come in. Hinata was hesitant and a bit scared to be honest, but she slowly lifted the covers and craweled in. Sasuke turned away from her on his side, and Hinata did the same.

Hours passed, and Sasuke barely blinked. However, Hinata was fast asleep already. It was now at least two in the morning, and Sasuke turned to his side and scooted towards the girl, clutching on to her. She was facing towards him, and it only made it even better for Sasuke. Not in a perverted way way he touching her, just stroking her face and messing with her hair.

Sasuke's blood red eyes examined the sleeping beauty's face, and he buried his face in her neck. "I love you…" he whispered to her, knowing she couldn't hear. His cheek rested against her silky midnight hair, and he silently cried. Why didn't she know? How could this be she didn't love him? Tears streamed down his face and he sniffled. It was so hard loving someone and you pretended day after day they were just your friend to you, that you wouldn't shout for glee and hug them if they confessed they loved you, that you were interested in other people.

Sasuke Uchiha loved this girl.

He stroked her hair with one hand and snaked the other around her arm. Sasuke held tight, and cried more.

Why was he in the same bed in the first place? An earthquake had hit Konoha, and her house was destroyed. Luckily the Uchiha manor was still intact, and when asked around, Hinata was finally accepted into his house. Sasuke lied they only had one bed, and the other areas were dojos.

"I love you so much, please feel the same way for me…" Sasuke whispered into her hair, feeling selfish. Hinata had done so much for him, and he nothing for her, so why ask for more?

"Please…"

Sasuke spent more hours pleading for her to love him, but though her sleeping form, no words escaped her lips. She would be clueless when she woke. Absoulutely clueless.

The sun was begenning to rise, and when Sasuke felt Hinata stir a bit, he jolted back and turned away from her, faking he had woken up on the other side of the bed. He hadnt slept anyway, so occupied with Hinata.

"Nnh, good morning, Uchiha-san." She yawned. Sasuke could feel her weight stretch on the other side of the matress. He quickly swiped away tears.

"'Morning."

Once more Sasuke had to fake she was only a friend, and once more he had to fake she was nothing more. He had to fake he hadnt spent an entire night crying over her, for what had been the 21st day, three weeks counting.

Fin. Read the author's note below please!! It's about this story!!

Well, the truth is, this is based on me. I'm so deeply in love with a boy, and he has no idea. We don't sleep in the same bed of course, but I wish we did, so I could be close to him. Yes, I've cried over him. I love him so much, it's like he's hurting my heart. I want him to love me, to notice me like that. I pretend day after day he's only my friend to me, and even when my friends joke about us being a couple, I laugh with them and act grossed out.

I had a dream about him yesterday night, and he was my boyfriend and we were in a field laying down, and I was holding tightly onto his arm and we were laughing. It was beautiful.

And then I woke up…
