It was her turn again

It was her turn again. Why did she always have to go there?

"Ambassador Hinata?" a voice came from her open office door, and she turned. A Hyuga who worked under her, making him more then likely of the branch house, stood there.

"Hinata-chan, it's time to go." Behind the first Hyuga stood her branch cousin, Neji. Silently Hinata picked up the documents from her table. These were the final papers to close the new treaty with the Village Hidden in the Sand. This would mean going to Sunagakure, and faceing their Kage, the Kazekage.

She held the documents to her chest and nodded with a small smile. She wasn't going to let some boy frighten her. She would stand up and speak as if she was anyone else she talked to. Gaara of the desert would not scare her.

That plan worked well... she thought sarcastacily(sp?) as she sat on the guest room bed. The welcoming comitty,(sp?) if you could call them that, said they were sorry the Kazekage could be there, for her had more urgent matters to attend to.

She was told where her room was after the short routine tour of the estate, thanked them, then turned to walk towards her room. On her way there, she met him. She gulped and stood to the side of the large hallway, allowing him more then enough room to pass. A cold shiver went up and down her spine as he passed without a glance.

Falling back onto the bed she sighed and closed her eyes Why does he get the best of me everytime? An image of Gaara when she first met him, years ago, flashed in her head. How come she was the only one still frightened of him?

Hinata extended her arms above her head and her hands brushed a piece of paper. Becoming curious, she opened her eyes and looked upsidedown at the bedside table.

On the table was a white letter with a blue seal. The Kazekage's seal. What could he want?

The first part of the letter was the normal 'Welcome to the Kazekage's estate' blah, but this time, something else was added in scrawled, barely leggible(sp?) handwriting.

I regret not being there to see you in, but I was busy. Tomorrow I request your presence at 11:00am, before the final meeting to discuss some matters.

--Kazekage of the Sand, Gaara

A meeting before the official one? Wasn't that against some guideline in village meetings?

"Well, if the Kazekage feels that it is important..." Hinata spoke in her quiet voice. She still hadn't grown out of it like people said she would. The ambassador still had no urge to be in the same room as that lunitic. She sighed again, and collapased back onto the bed from the sitting position she had moved to earlier. The bed was unusually soft, like laying on piles of feathers, downy feathers...

Here ends section one. YAY! Now you must wait until Halloween to get the next part! Actually between this one and the next one, there was about two school quaters inbetween. I moved and stchuff. Yeah. So this is this. If it's not evident, the pairing is GaaraxHinata. Sorry if I spoiled it for ya. ;P
