"I can't believe Kurenai is making me live with four boys after I told her what happened back in my old school" A girl with long dark hair mumbled as she walked toward the gate sofa huge manor "I told her that I was fine living with my dad, but she just kept ignoring me!"
The girl kept walking as memories of her old school made their way into her mind.
Flashback
It happened two years ago, I've tried to forget it but I can't. The memory of that day haunts me every day when all I want is to forget.
"E-ever since first year…I've always had a crush on you"
My heart was beating so fast and loud that I thought he could hear it…
"You know, I've always thought you were a dark and weird girl…I'm sorry but I don't feel the same" A blond boy said as he walked away from the shy girl, laughing all the way out of the school.
"M-Minamoto-kun"
That was the day when my world crashed
End of Flashback
Three boys around 16 years are sitting peacefully in the garden of a huge manor.
The first boy, Nara Shikamaru a lazy boy with dark hair in a messy ponytail and dark eyes, was watching at the clouds, as one of his friends decided to rest on top of a tree, Momochi Haku is a boy with black hair, dark brown eyes and girly appearance, while Uchiha Sasuke a boy with black hair and onyx eyes was sitting in the center of the garden, when suddenly out of nowhere Uzumaki Naruto, a blond boy with deep blue eyes, appear from behind a bush running toward them.
"You are too loud dobe" Sasuke said as soon as Naruto approach them.
"Something's wrong?" Haku asked concerned.
"Don't tell me you guys forgot already that today is the day that that girl is coming"
"Oh yeah…how troublesome"
Flashback
Some days earlier
Kurenai, a woman with curly black hair and red eyes, was sitting in front of four boys.
"I have a favor to ask you guys" she said calmly "you see, I've arranged for my niece to move here in a few days and I'd like you to cooperate in making her be more…sociable"
"And why do we have to do something like that?" Naruto yelled as he stood from his chair.
"Well you see, if you make my niece Hinata-chan get rid of her shyness…I would make your living expenses free"
"Are you serious? That would be awesome" the blond boy said jumping happily.
"But if you fail, you'll pay the rent triple, we have a deal?" Kurenai asked as she watched the boys argue about if they should do it or not.
"If you are willing to let us live here free just by making your niece more sociable then she must be worse than Sasuke!" Shikamaru and Haku chuckled as Sasuke kicked Naruto "We will do it" Haku said smiling.
"Good, now I'll be going" Kurenai said as she opened the door just to reveal a man standing outside "let's go Asuma, goodbye boys and take good care of my niece!!" and with that the couple was gone.
End of Flashback
"Oh yeah, but what is there to worry about?" Haku asked.
"Food, you baka, Food! Ever since Oba-chan left we haven't been able to eat!! I'm hungry" Naruto said as he waved his arms around frantically.
"That's why you are so worried? That's lame Naruto" Sasuke said as he closed his eyes tiredly.
"It's not lame! Food is the basis of everything!" the blond said as he kept rambling about food.
"Hey, Haku you said you wanted to pick some roses for the girl right?" Shikamaru asked as he turned to the boy who just nodded "Let's go then I'll help you, that way I can get away from this troublesome blond" he said as he pointed at Naruto.
"Let's go" Haku said as he walked toward the nearest bush, when suddenly something moved "I think something's in there"
"Your imagination is playing tricks on you" Shikamaru said tiredly as he walked beside Haku.
Haku said as he kneeled down before the bush as he tried to get a glimpse of whatever was hiding in the bushes "Shikamaru there's something in there! And it's scary" Haku said as he backed away.
The four boys just stared at the bush when suddenly something or someone pooped out from it. Naruto, Haku and Shikamaru screamed as the backed away from it.
"Calm down you bakas" Sasuke snapped as he turned to 'it' "You are Hyuga Hinata right?" Sasuke asked, the girl just nodded.
The boys looked at the girl in front of them; she was wearing a black oversized jacket, a baggy pants and a pair of sneakers. Her hair was a midnight blue color that reached past her mid back; her bangs were covering her face hiding her eyes and her skin was almost as pale as a ghost.
"Welcome Hyuga-san, we'll show you your room" Haku said in a polite tone as the four boys walked toward the girl's room.
"Your things are already there so you don't have to worry about them, Kurenai got the in your room for you" Naruto said as he looked at the girl, she just nodded.
"When someone talks to you look at them, and those bangs are annoying, cut them off" Sasuke ordered as he stepped in front of her.
"And why would I do what you say?" Hinata asked as she entered her room, closing the door after her.
Naruto, Shikamaru and Haku just stared at the door and then at Sasuke who had his fists clenched beside him.
"What a troublesome girl" Shikamaru said as he walked away from the door followed by the others.
"What a troublesome girl"
Hinata was sitting on the floor in front of a box, hugging her knees close to her chest.
"I'm not going to let them harm me in any way…" She stood from her bed as she walked toward a box full of clothes, she looked inside trying to find some clean clothes and once she found them she rushed to the bathroom.
The guys were sitting at Icharaku's ramen stand talking about Hinata, when suddenly a girl about their age came up with a small pad in her hand.
"Excuse me…may I take your order?" the girl said with hearts in her eyes as she blushed heavily.
"Why can't Hinata be more…normal? She's a normal girl" Haku said as he pointed at the girl, at this the girl fainted. And then chaos ensued…
"How about me?" Another girl said as she appeared out of nowhere.
"I'm completely normal"
"I won an award for being normal"
"There's no award for being normal!"
"Well, if there was one I would win it for sure!"
"Let's go" Sasuke said as they left the stand, when suddenly Shikamaru stopped and looked back at the stand.
"See you some other time" He said as he kept walking, and all the girls in the stand fainted.
"Why do you have to do that?" Haku asked annoyed.
"They are troublesome when they are loud and they can't be loud if they faint" he simply said.
"Why Okaasan, why do I have to live here anyway" Hinata asked as she looked at a photo of a beautiful woman. The woman was wearing a lilac sundress, her hair flowing behind her, her eyes were closed but Hinata remembered clearly how her eyes held a faint lavender color in them.
"Hinata-chan" Haku's voice was heard from the other side of the door followed by a knock.
"Hai?" she opened the door to see Haku, Sasuke and Shikamaru looking at her curiously.
"We brought you some ice cream" Haku said as he handed her a small container.
"Thank you" she said as she grabbed it form the boy, then she shut the door closed leaving them staring, once again, at her door.
"Naruto! If you want her to make food come and ask her yourself" Shikamaru said as he looked at Naruto who was hiding behind a door.
"But she's scary and probably she'll yell at me" Naruto said in a childish voice.
"Come here and ask her dobe" Sasuke said angrily as he walked toward the living room, Haku and Shikamaru following him.
"We made no progress today" Haku said sadly as he sat in the floor.
"Yeah, well if you noticed she hardly talk to us" Shikamaru said.
"Hey, where's Sasuke?" Naruto suddenly asked as he looked around searching for him as the other two just shrugged. "He was here two minutes ago" Haku said.
Sasuke was done taking a bath when suddenly he remembered that Naruto refused to ask the girl if she could make food, so he walked toward her room and opened the door without knocking. He wasn't fond of the girl or anything, but he refused to eat Naruto's weird food that threatened to come alive.
Hinata, who was watching a movie, heard the door open, she turned around just to see Sasuke in a pair of jeans and a towel tossed in his bare shoulders.
"Hey, you know…" He began saying but was cut by Hinata's scream.
"Get out!" she demanded, pushing the boy out of her room as Shikamaru, Naruto and Haku appeared in the door way.
"What the- you see me and then out of nowhere you scream?! What's wrong with you?" Sasuke yelled angrily as he glared at the girl, that was hiding from his view behind a box.
"I was only being nice to you because it'll get me free rent! Otherwise who would ever talk to you? Who would bother to come to this creepy room?" he yelled.
"Creepy?" Haku asked as he looked around the room, the lights were turned off; there were books in the floor, such as 'the raven' and some other creepy titles.
"Sasuke can be a bastard sometimes but he isn't that bad…I think" Naruto said as he looked at Hinata curiously.
"I apologize for the teme over here" Haku said pointing to Sasuke.
"That's not it…" Hinata said, she opened her mouth to say something else when suddenly...she fainted.
"Is she dead?" Naruto asked as he poked her in the face.
"She fainted" Shikamaru said "Sasuke, what were you thinking? Telling her about the rent"
"Hn, I'm going to my room" He said as he exited the room.
"Naruto a little help over here" Haku said, Naruto turned around to see Haku trying to place Hinata in her bed.
"So what are we supposed to do?" Naruto asked as he turned to Shikamaru.
"We'll have to plan something" he said "We can't pay the rent between the four of us; we hardly have money to pay it as it is"
They nodded as they exited her room thinking on how to turn Hinata into a perfect lady, as her aunt told them.
5 minutes later.
Hinata was still lying in her bed, but now she was awake.
'So, all this is what she was planning' She thought as she got up from her bed.
She slowly walked to the window, silently she got out form her room, and once she was out she ran as fast as she could, carful to not make too much noise.
