The Hyuuga Princess

Hinata sat looking out her window as the rain patted softly down the glass. She followed a lonely raindrop with her finger down the side until it disappeared at the bottom of the window. She sighed as her breath fogged up the glass. "Why haven't I told him yet?" she questioned herself softly looking grimly out onto her glorious garden. "Why? Because I have no god damn confidence" she answered herself pressing her head onto the glass in frustration. She had caught a really bad flu and had spent the past few days in her bedroom. It didn't help that it had been raining for those exact days. A tear rolled down her feverish, red face. A small knock was heard as the door slowly crept open. Sakura came into her line of sight with a small box, "hey Hinata" she greeted softly as she made her way over to the sick young heir. Hinata smiled sweetly at her visitor. "I bought you chocolate" she stated holding out the box. Hinata giggled but this earned her a coughing fit in response. "Thank you sakura-Chan!" she gasped out and felt dizzy as she got up to lie down on her bed. Her long hair stuck to her flawless skin as she shivered in a sickly mess. "You're not well Hinata, I should take you to the hospital for a full examination." Sakura stated worriedly. "Oh I'm fine sakura ha ha" she sneezed into her handkerchief and rolled over in her bed. She sat up all of a sudden as her eyes rolled around in her head as she felt a mad hot flush. "Oh Hinata!" she quickly grabbed the nearest bucket before things got real bad.

"Kakashi-sensei" shouted naruto from a far. The misty rain gathered around them in a grey curtain. "What is it naruto" kakashi asked annoyed that he was being deprived of delicate sleep after such an annoying mission with this boy. "I just wanted to know if you knew where sakura might be." He asked almost in a hushed tone. "I don't know naruto, try the hospital" kakashi answered swiftly jerking his arm in the air. "Later" he ended disappearing in a cloud of smoke. "Hospital" naruto said quietly trying to remember which way it was. The rain had begun to seep through his clothing as he rushed to the nearest ramen stand for some late morning food.

"Well, you sure haven't got the flu" stated sakura to a very pale Hinata. "But-"started Hinata before being interrupted by sakuras hand. "From what I have concluded it is not contagious, but I think you will get a lot worse before you get better" she said putting down all the bits of paper. "Worse?! You mean this isn't bad enough?!" Hinata squeaked out as she sat up in her bed. "Yep, means you'll have to stay here until you get better" said sakura smiling at Hinata. "But I'll make sure you don't go crazy" sakura smiled and left the room. Hinata sighed and lay back down onto her bed.

The sky kept on weeping out its wet water onto Konaha as if mourning a loss not yet known. Sakura took her eyes away from her microscope as she studied the information she had gathered on the computer. "No nucleus…. But how are they doubling so rapidly??" she stood up and rubbed her temple. "I'll figure this out tomorrow" she looked up at her clock on the wall in front of her. It wasn't there. Come to think of it, where was her stapler and pens. She paused then cringed at the thought. "Naruto" she growled. The blonde appeared just behind her smiling. "You seemed really busy there, I was sort of amazed you didn't sense me" he stated putting everything on her desk. "I see your back" sakura started as she looked at the watch on her wrist. "12pm, your early" she stated in amazement. "hehe, so what were you doin'?" naruto asked looking into the microscope. He looked at her in confusion. "Just dots?" he mumbled. "Cells naruto, they look too much like blood cells only grey" she said opening the door. "Oh, 

why?" asked naruto again. "That's Hinatas blood work, she's really sick" said sakura watching narutos reaction. "She's sick?!" shouted naruto. His shout echoed off the walls as he grabbed sakura. "She's not gonna die is she?!"
