Smiling.

When did it become so hard to do? All that one needed to do was to raise the corners of their mouth up. Though now-a-days it's easier to let the corners droop.

Was the sun always this bright? Why do I even go outside anymore? I guess to keep up that innocent appearance.

I wish he would see me. Was I so invisible that he can just walk right past me? My mind doesn't want to think about it. Maybe father was right. What use am I if my younger sister can beat me in the clan technique?

The kunai looks so inviting right now. I can't see why I haven't put it to my skin.

Maybe I'm hoping that someone will pull me out of my self made darkness. But who am I kidding? No one will help the 'useless' Hinata Hyuuga. They will mock me for taking the cowards way out.

I don't care. I relish the pain as the kunai plunges into my lung. I know that unless some one comes in the next minute or so I will suffocate on my own blood. I hoped someone would have come before hand.

My dad must have seen a small tickle of blood under the door because he just slammed the door open.

I feel so light. I wish I knew what he was saying. My eyes hurt. I look at him and he's crying. Why? Didn't he want this? I was weak. Now Hanabi can take her place as clan head. Kami knows I can't. I see blood splatter on his face and he makes no move to wipe it away. My body is shaking and was...I...coughing?

My eyes widened.

He mouthed I love you.

He loved me?

H-He loved me?

Now I don't want to go. I want to hear him say it. I want him to hug me like he is now. I want to be held I strong arms that only a loving father can have.

My eyes are closing on their own now. I wish I could stay. I want to be in his arms forever.

I...wanted t-to be...loved.

I-is that to much t-to ask?
