disclaimer: i do not own NARUTO....and never willz
All around me
My hands are searching for you, my arms are stretched out towards you, I feel you on my finger tips, my tongue dances behind my lips for you...
"Never again will I allow you that privilege Yuu, never." The red haired women wailed pathetically at the already closed door her ex lover just walked out of.
Hinata flicked off the TV and pressed another button on the universal remote, Neji gave her for her sixteenth birthday, along with a flat screen TV and stereo, and turned on her IPod. Her favourite song immediately started to play loudly as Hinata unconsciously started to sing too.
Hinata knew she was safe; her father was ten feet in the ground. She was no longer the heir to her family's company, and neither was her sister Hanabi, but her cousin Neji. He gladly took the spot to please the company's supporters. They never wanted a girl as a head representative anyhow. So Neji helped Hinata get her own place settled that was near her new high school, Hanabi choose to live with Neji until Hinata graduates.
Naruto finally noticed Hinata, but in the end after five years of Naruto not noticing Hinata, she moved on. Sakura helped him aim his love back to her. Hinata didn't mind, especially when she learned Sakura and Naruto were engaged to be wed next fall. She was happy for them even.
Hinata was in eleventh grade next week, and she was not at all happy about it. A new school where she knew no one was not quite her cup of tea, but she will deal with it. Over the course of the last few years, Hinata learned to be more confident, not stutter and blush at every comment a boy said. In fact, Hinata was quite proud of the fact that she became not too soft around the edges, but still possessed enough warmth to be selfless as usual. She let her hair grow out so it was as long as Neji's, Hinata even put light silver highlights through it, courtesy of Sakura and Ino. Inner Hinata was shocked at the new Hinatas style, but the new Hinata loved it; a black tight tank top, with a black fishnet ¾ sleeved lay underneath. The picture of a blue rose dipped in black ink showed on the front.
Tight black spandex shorts reached just above her knees, while a midnight blue skirt with splits that ended up to her hips on each side, rested snugly around her navel, the skirt length its self was 2 inches below her kneecap. Her footwear consists of a pair of midnight blue and black sandals, they wrapped around her ankles in an almost Greek way; the spiral ending just a few inches below her skirt. Straps secured her petite feet so when she ran they would not shift as much. Her mother made them for her just before she passed on. A lone midnight blue glove with the top of the fingers cut off was placed on her left hand. The silk blue ribbon tied together her hair at the bottom in a Neji like fashion.
To complete the look, Sakura convinced Hinata to get her belly-button pierced with a small blue butterfly dangling from a sterling silver chain. Seeing the Hinatas ears already held earrings in them, Sakura took Hinata to a professional and also pierced her bottom lip with a silver hoop, and also her tongue with a single silver stud.
Hinata never knew pain until they did that all in one day, only hours apart from each other. And by the time they were done, since Sakura was a medical ninja, or so she called herself, she instructed Hinata not to let anyone see until the wounds healed completely. For three weeks she stayed inside cleaning, catching up on some reading, and summer assignments, also tending to her new look. Adding the appropriate disinfecting liquids three times a day, and planning how to confront Neji and her best friends; Shino, Kiba, and Itachi, without her friends blowing a fuse.
By the time Sakura lead Hinata to Sakura and Naruto's home, where all her friends and close family were gathered, Hinata was frightened out of her wits of what people would think. And because Sakura knew Hinata was nervous, she thought why not make the best of it, and had Hinata cut the bottom of her black tank top so it showed off her impressively flat ivory stomach, which clearly showed her butterfly belly piercing. HInata didnt know why Sakura was making such a big deal about it, but Hinata wouldnt burst her bubble gum colored bubble. That was Sasuke's job.
Sakura snuck Hinata into the back room just behind the curtains Sakura had Naruto install just for this occasion; even if Naruto didn't know why, he was just glad Sakura was happy. And if Sakura was happy, then that would mean more ramen, which would equal a very satisfied Naruto.
When the time came to present Hinata to the crowd of anxious friends, Hinata put up a brave face and walked out with a new found confidence that surprised Sakura.
"Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the one and only; Hyuuga Hinata!" sakura shouted and the curtains divided slowly to show the new Hinata. Her posture was of a different person. Or so Hinata thought. To the crowd, it looked almost natural. Head up, back straight, right hand placed on her hip, and left hanging loosely at her side, Hinata twirled around and stuck out her tongue to the small crowd. The shocked silence could not have been more awkward.
"Speechless? Even Naruto, wow, I never thought I would see the day." Hinata mused out loud, in a voice so un-hinata-ish Sakura felt a swift breeze of jealousy to only be replaced by pride for the small silent girl. Sakura couldn't help but compare Hinata to her favourite department store. It was small and unnoticed, but finally someone noticed it adn made it a big hit. Sadly, Sakura did not make it the hit; her besfriend Ino did. But she was happy anyways.
Stepping off the stage Hinata felt the group's eyes on her as she made her way to her Best friends; Itachi, Shino and Kiba.
Itachi never saw a red more intense then at that moment. And he wass sure, neither did his comrades. The boys' in this room married or engaged no matter not, was looking at hisHinata. His sharingan swirled dangerously as he watched Hinata move his way. Really, Itachi never saw something so dangerously beautiful. The combination of purples, blues and blacks reminded him to thank Sakura for not putting her in one of her ridiculous pink dresses she was oh so loved.
Kiba even had the nerve to gap at his only female companion, and then Shino. The never-talking-stoic-bug-boy Shino, actually blushed when Hinatas gaze landed on his. Itachi was fine -If being over the top angry was his definition of fine- until a friend -no wait, make that ex-friend- reached out his hand, and groped poor Hinatas plump backside. Now that sent Itachi into a killing intent mood.
When Hinata looked at Itachis stiff posture, and red eyes coming her way, she blinked twice and then squeaked, before turning away and running for the nearest exit. She didnt know why she did this, but only when she felt herself being lifted effortlessly over the his shoulder like a rag doll, did that reason clue in. Uchiha Itachi was jealous, that or and extremely over-bearing brother, with a sister complex. And Hinata found that she liked it.
