And hello to all you awesome readers. I'm back, anyway to the story. This isn't really your normal SasuHina story. It is a romance yes, but there's a twist. Sasuke isn't all what you think up to be. If any of you guys have watched the movie Whisper you'll know right away what I'm talking about. I don't expect to get many reviews for this new plot idea I made but I hope it gets a chance. Anyways don't worry, he won't be a young kiddie forever! :) Anyways onward!
Prologue
"Why are you leaving me?" His voice was soft as always.
The window slamming open was completely loud in comparison.
"They-They're going to find me anyway," Hinata bit back her tears, sounding almost like a mouse. It hurt her, it really did, but what else could she do, "I'll be back, I pr-promise."
Sasuke looked up from his spot on the floor with a sad smile before getting up.
"Promise?"
She eyed his even shiny black hair from her position on the window sill, it's combed perfection.
"Promise."
Hinata shuddered, but didn't resist the sudden warm embrace. Sasuke's arms barely wrapped around Hinatas waist. His elfin hands curled around her dirty brown skirt, clenching and unclenching.
'"You don't have to go," Hinata tensed but immediately relaxed, scooting a bit backwards.
"B-b-but I do." She said quietly. He squeezed tighter bringing his face to rest into her stomach. His freshly cleaned hair scent was surprisingly calming. She had just washed him down.
"I'll miss you," his breath brought warmth.
"I'll miss you too Sasuke-kun." She lulled in the dark room.
Hinata could feel his lips curl into a beautiful smile. It somehow made her feel a little better.
Dream into me
Hinata was always taught at a young age not to be rude. Not even to shove her younger brothers who always seemed to tick her off at the wrong time. So even now, as two strangers shoved her into the back of their car, she didn't scream, not even as a cloth was brought around her mouth that wasn't even needed. It wasn't because she was too polite or didn't want to grab attention to the others who stood out of the alleyway, but because of fear.
The vehicle started and the two men drove off into the night. Hinata squeaked out a tiny protest but it was nothing compared to the loud booming of the truck. Everything was dark and the only thing she could make out were the eyes or the two men. They stared back at her with anger, and fear before turning back to face the road.
She couldn't move a muscle. Her body was tied down as was everything else.
The first thing Hinata awoke to was the sound of banging on her door. Her pillow was soaked with sweat, and her heart was racing so fast. It had only been a dream. She attempted a smile but only came out with frown as she realized it was night. It was so cold.
She tussled in her sheets before peeking up from the bed to face the only door in the room.
No one was there.
She let out a sigh before burying herself back into the sheets.
It had been three days ago since she had been kidnapped and she was already having nightmares of it.
Tonight her all too well memory of it played in her dreams.
Despite the coldness and unforgiving nature of the strangers' house, they helped out with her nightmares. One of the men in disguise would come in her room and leave warm milk. And despite the loud banging on her door every morning everything seemed better than what she expected. That is, by the expectations of what kidnapping seemed to be.
Hinata would often put her ear to the wall and listen to them talking. She had heard them contemplating once on letting her go and she had made up her mind that they were gentle people; especially the woman who she heard being called by the name Roxanne. But in the end it seemed they wouldn't. They needed her hostage for her parents money, or at least what she guessed. After they were done talking, they'd go back to watching TV.
Some nights she would find herself crying herself to sleep. No one was going to help her.
It had been three days since Hinata had began to have nightmares and she was beginning to dread them with a vengeance.
Hinata shuddered at another loud, banging knock.
"You have a newcomer Hinata." It was the woman. Before Hinata knew it, the door to her room opened and in came Roxanne, her back toward her. Following her was another man with a ski mask on.
In the darkness of the room, she could make out a tiny little boy. His eyes were covered with blindfold and as he drew closer, Hinata couldn't help but wonder if this boy was kidnapped also for ransom.
I have to get out of here.
She knelt down on her edge of her bed and peered at the boy with shock. They couldn't have kidnapped someone so young.
"You two play nice now." The man in the mask said with, what Hinata guessed was a smile. And with that the door closed behind the two.
"You can take your blindfold off now Sasuke." Roxanne muffled through the wall. She sounded concerned, Hinata noted.
Her attention went back to the boy in front of her.
His name is Sasuke?
She had heard of him before. And she almost feared him. Sasuke Uchiha, the great prodigy of the Uchiha family. The Uchiha family, one of the deadliest shin obi around. They were also one of the richest people in the state. Almost like the Hyuuga family, except they were a bit less powerful then their family line.
So this is Sasuke Uchiha…
Her face was surprised to see the little boy as he removed his blindfold. She noticed three things about him; he wasn't crying, his face was un-emotional, and his eyes held something deep she couldn't really explain. He didn't look scared nor sad but rather annoyed.
"Hello."
Hinata blinked at the boy, she didn't expect that. Maybe a sniffle or him to be crying, but not a welcome.
"A-a hello," she stuttered out. He looked right at her before he turned his back to her and started to walk on the opposite side of the room.
"A-ano Sa-s-suke-kun." Hinata's violet orbs followed Sasuke as he traced his hand on the wall before turning his face to her.
"Yes?" his voice sounded so gentle yet curt; it caught Hinata's attention. He looked about nine to eleven years old she guessed."Uhm, how old are you Sasuke-kun?" She was truly interested. The boy wasn't frightened all. He continued to trace his hand along the wooden wall, stopping to turn his head again and then continue walking.
"I'm twelve." he replied. Hinata bit her lip as she watched the boy go back and forth. Everything seemed completely still, almost as if time had stopped. Even the air tasted stale.
"Oh-h," She didn't know what else to say, and it surprised her. As she leaned into bed she almost squealed in shock to find him standing right at the foot of her bed. She hadn't even had the time to speak before he opened his mouth.
"Where am I sleeping?"
"Ohh," she whispered, still catching her breath, "Well, I do-don't know."
Sasuke stared into her eyes as moments passed by; letting guilt consume her. Up close, she could see that his face was flawless and pale- he looked far from a rich kid. But for some reason, Hinata couldn't place a finger on why he seemed a bit deceptive.
"Ano, bu-but weren't you right over there a second ago?" She asked pointing to the other corner of the small dark room.
Sasuke didn't take a moment longer before he continued, "Can I sleep with you?"
Hinata bit back her tongue before she put on a warm smile. He was probably frightened.
"Of co-course you can." She shifted on the small single-person bed, tussling in the extremely warm sheets, letting the cold air rush in.
Sasuke idly crawled into the bed, stopping to pull the blanket up.
"Can you tell me a story?" The young Uchiha asked as he settled into bed.
Hinata looked up from her position before turning to face him.
"Sure," she replied, "Which o-one would y-you like?"
To be fair, the Uchiha pondered a moment, "Anyone you like."
Hinata stopped for a second before going on.
"H-how about th-the ugly duckling?" A silent muffle was her only indication to continue."Once upon a time there lived an ugly duckling," she was proud she hadn't stuttered a word so far. Her parents had told her this story countless times when she was younger. Now, she could all but sleep through the night without a single story being told.
She continued her story until the only noise in the house was a quiet cricket chirping in the cold December night.
Hinata sighed, setting herself down cozily next to her companion.
How long will we be here for?
She awoke to the noise of creaking floorboards.
It was the kind of creaking that could only be made on polished cabin floors by heavy uneven steps. Although it was dark, Hinata could see the shadows of someone under the door crack. In the time it took one thought to jump to the next, the door to the Hyuuga's room slid open and in came Roxanne with a mask. Hinata immediately closed her eyes, hoping the other woman hadn't seen her awake.
She could hear the creaking floorboards as she walked towards the bed.
"Found you this," Roxanne whispered to the Uchiha. The bed shuffled a little, showing that he was awake "Thought you might get cold." Hinata let out a breath she didn't know she holding. She was safe.
"Why are you wearing that?" Sasuke asked.
"Well, so you don't see who I am." Roxanne replied.
"Oh." The bed shuffled again.
"Try to get some sleep, okay?" Hinata could almost feel the concern in her voice. It sounded so sad.
"It looks uncomfortable," The Hyuuga almost jumped up as tiny hands were placed on the back of her neck; beginning to twirl her lavender hair, "I won't peak if you wanna take it off."
There was a pause.
"Okay, but it has to be our secret." Despite the fear she had of waking up to her kidnapper, Hinata couldn't hold in her uncomfort much longer. The tiny hands tickled her neck and her skin was very sensitive. Fortunately, Sasuke stopped and the sensations left (never mind scratching it). For a moment, Hinata thought that the woman would leave, the seconds dragged by however, she remained motionless and utterly still.
"Okay, I promise." There was another pause. To Hinata's surprise, Roxanne started humming, then singing. Hinata allowed her attention to wander to the walls, then to the vent near the floor. Roxanne's voice was beautiful and calming, it made her feel a little sleepy. And with that, Hinata fell asleep.
