My feet were stumbling after one another in a pathetic display of running, my left foot trying to be faster than my right and my right foot deciding to be defiant.

Needless to say, it resulted in me falling flat on my face.

What a great day to be alive, ne?

A cluster of mercedes and lamborghinis were whizzing past me, causing an uproar of strong winds which so happened to pull up my school's ugly grey uniform skirt.

Although, this was unbeknownst to me.

As i started to stand with my trembling noodles of legs i glanced up and caught gazes with my lovely cousin. Thoughts. dripping. with. sarcasm.

"Hinata, are you okay?" he ran over to me in such grace i apparently didn't inherit.

"H-hai Neji nii-san"

Shame bubbling over my body in monstrous waves as we started our way up the cobblestones to our before mentioned school. I simply was just trying to ignore his all-seeing eyes that never seemed to miss much at all.

walking silently together i begsn to gaze at the castle we were approaching. Large in size, so large theres an elevator. And the entrance seemed to be vomitting up students in waves as much as it was taking them in.

the silence was soon interrupted by Neji, "i hate to have to ask you Nata, but…. are you doing okay?…. every since Naru-"

"Im fine" i spoke with authority that was a stranger to my normal voice.

I ignored his face being shrouded in shock for that brief second.

He didn't bother disrupting our silence together again.

As i sat in class staring up at the chalk board where Kakashi- sensei seemed to be towering over, spouting out some lecture of not being tardy as if he hadn't had walked in the classroom 13 minutes late.

And all i could think of is how a school big enough for elevators still hasn't upgraded to whiteboards.

My eyes slowly gazed over to the mop of golden spikes that happened to be waaaay to close to the desk as if he were snoozing.

At least he looks cute.

As soon as i thought that i had to ignore the sudden wave of pain that hit my person and simply turned my wandering eyes back to sensei.

"Okay, class remember to turn in your permission slips tomorrow as its the last day or else you won't make it for the field trip this upcoming friday. and don't forge…"

I stopped paying attention deeming my pain i tried to ignore earlier as more important than this lecture.

"Hinata!" I heard as Tenten came barreling next to me

"A-ano, hello Tenten-chan"

Ten was surely a beautiful woman in her own right. Always cheery and sporting her infamous twin buns at the tip top of her head.

"I was thinking you and I could head to the mall after we get out of this prison." She says slinging an arm around my frail shoulders.

"Unfortunately, we still have two more hours until our sentence is over", i couldn't help saying with a small smile.

"Note the after i had mentioned Hina-dear", she deadpanned.

I giggled even more at her bored look.

"Still not an answer, babe."

i hesitated only slightly but genuinely smiled, " I t-think i would love that".

She whooped so loud as i hid my red face at the sight of everyone looking at us weirdly now. Still happy, the day seemed to be looking up for me.

Once Tenten and i separated i went to my locker to gather my things clutching my phone and unlocking the small device.

Only one small text was enough to damper my day all over again.

Nice panties Hyuuga, while i don't particularly care for purple, i can certainly enjoy the lacey aspect of it. ;)

Im new to this and could really use some love :)

Good or bad i would love to hear some feedback!
