CHAPTER 1
"N-Naruto-kun."
Hinata's heart was racing as she called the boy she had loved since the moment they met. She had decided that today was the day she would confess. It was their last day of school in 8th grade and she wanted to tell him her feelings before they went on to different high schools. There was an assembly in the cafeteria and her assigned seat happened to be right next to his. What a coincidence.
Naruto turned his head to look at his friend. He gave her a big Naruto smile making her blush like crazy.
"Yea?"
"I-I wanted t-to tell you that I…"
"You?"
"I li-"
"WELCOME STUDENTS OF KONOHA INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL!"
Hinata and Naruto snapped their heads to the stage where they're vice principal, Anko, stood. She seemed to be in very good mood right now.
"Student's, I would like you to take this time to go to your assigned seats. I know that many of you would like to sit with your friends but that's not how it works at this school." Anko looked at the students for a response and saw that no one had moved. Her kind smile faded and was replaced by what seemed to be an angry smirk.
"All those that are caught sitting in a different seat will report to Tsunade's office."
This time there was actually a response. More than half of the school stood up and began shuffling around looking for their assigned seat.
"I'm lucky," Naruto said turning to Hinata with a cheery grin.
"W-Why is t-that?" Hinata asked. Her eyes lost in his.
"Because I'm in my assigned seat and I'm still able to sit with my nicest friend!"
"Who is t-that?"
Naruto laughed at the question. Hinata sat there, confused at his laughter.
"You, of course!"
"M-M-Me?"
"Yea, you're always there when I need help. And you never yell at me, like Sasuke and Sakura."
"W-Why would I y-yell at you?"
"Because I'm different and I don't fit in with everyone else. After all I-I am… the Nine-Tails."
Naruto looked down and frowned. He was remembering his childhood. Hinata was surprised; she had never seen his face so depressed. She didn't like it.
"You don't have to fit in with everyone else!"
Naruto looked up at her. He was startled by her confidence almost as much as she was.
"H-Hinata…"
"W-Who cares w-what everyone else thinks? It d-doesn't matter! They'll just h-have to accept that y-you ARE YOU!
Naruto's heart was racing. He had never felt so special to someone before. He stared at Hinata and noticed her hands grasped his. Her skin was so soft.
"C-Cause you're Naruto Uzumaki… the Future Hokage," Hinata said giving him a warm smile.
Hinata's smile was beautiful. Her cheeks were bright red and her hair seemed to fold onto her shoulders perfectly. Naruto couldn't believe how unbearably cute she was. Why hadn't he noticed Hinata before? He had always been focused on Sakura but now…
"H-Hinata..."
"Y-yes?"
"Can I get your phone number?"
"H-Huh?"
"That way we can… y-you know, stay in touch if we go t-to different high schools."
"S-Sure."
The school bell rang, signaling the end of the school year.
While all the other students made their way out of the classroom, Hinata stayed in class thinking about what had happened during the assembly. She had been thinking about it all day. He asked for my number, MY NUMBER. And now he has it. Naruto Uzumaki has MY NUMBER and-
"Ms. Hyuuga."
Hinata woke from her fantasy and looked up at her teacher who was gathering his supplies and making his way out the door.
"I'm sorry, but I have to leave and I won't be able to leave you in here by yourself."
"O-Oh sorry."
Hinata's face turned pink as she picked up her backpack and left the classroom. She made her way outside the school and sat down on an outside bench when she noticed…
she had missed her bus.
What am I going to do? Her house is far away and it would take hours to get there on foot. Why had she been so careless? Why had she forgotten about her bus? Why had she-
"Hyuuga…"
Her thoughts had been interrupted again. She turned to look at who had called her and her face turned different shades of red. It was the brother of the famous Sasuke Uchiha, Itachi.
She had met him before at the opening ceremony outside the school gate. Itachi had just dropped off Sasuke when she had tripped. Itachi was aware of this and quickly caught her before she could hit the ground. Hinata immediately fainted at his embrace and Itachi was forced to take her to the infirmary. When she woke up he was there sitting beside her. He asked for her name then silently stood up and left. She hasn't seen him since, until now.
"W-What are you doing here?"
"..."
There was an odd silence between them. Hinata looked down at the ground, her eyes were beginning to water. Why did I even bother asking? Hinata was just about to run away sobbing when Itachi broke the silence.
"Did you miss your bus?"
How does he know I catch the bus?
"Y-Yea."
"I'll take you home then."
"Really?"
Itachi said nothing. He only nodded then began to walk away motioning for her to follow.
She followed Itachi to the car and saw Sasuke sitting in the back seat looking at the two of them. Hinata knew every girl in Konoha, other than herself, loved Sasuke but she couldn't figure out why. She saw Sasuke as a cruel, cold-hearted person who cared only for himself. Why would anyone fall for him?
Hinata entered into the car and sat in the back seat next to Sasuke. He said nothing as his brother made his way into the drivers seat, drove past the school gate and onto the main road. Hinata thought about and finally decided to tell him where she lived.
"I live-"
"I already know where you live Hyuuga."
"O-Oh"
EH? How does he know where I live?
"Why did you bring her along, Itachi?" Sasuke voice was so cold it sent chills up her spine.
"Why not?"
"Because she's just another irritating fangirl."
Hinata was shocked. Fangirl? But I like Naruto…
"She tries to act cute in front of everyone but she's so annoying. She'll probably start rumors about how were going out and-"
"S-STOP!" Hinata was mad; she had never felt such anger before. Her face was red but not from embarrassment, from pure rage.
"Who d-do you think you are? Everyone e-else may think you're cool b-but to me you're j-just a jerk! AND IM N-NOT A FANGIRL! I d-don't even know you! And the only b-boy I would ever g-go out with is Naruto so j-just… SHUT UP!"
She jerked her door open and Itachi was forced to stop in the middle of the road.
"I-Itachi, thank you b-but I can't stay."
"Hn..."
She walked to the sidewalk in a hurry, still angry at Sasuke's rude comments.
In the car, Sasuke was shocked. He froze completely where he sat, unsure of how to react. Itachi shook his head. He was very disappointed in his younger brother's actions.
Itachi honestly liked Hinata. She didn't follow him around like every other girl he had met. She didn't ask him personal questions that he didn't want to answer. She was… nice and Itachi found comfort in her presence, but of course he couldn't tell her that. He could only act like himself around guys and Hinata was clearly not a guy.
Almost there. It had been two hours since she had left Itachi and Sasuke and she was still a mile away from her house. She was on the verge of fainting when a familiar voice called her name from behind.
"Hinata-sama."
She knew that voice… It was Neji.
"N-Neji nii-san," she said falling to the ground. Neji quickly ran over and put her on his back. Slipping her arms around his neck.
"What a troublesome girl," he said, hauling her home.
When they finally reached the house Neji carried Hinata to her bedroom and laid her down on her bed. He didn't tuck her in or check if she was all right, he just walked away. When Hinata finally woke up it was midnight. She lay in her bed hungry, cold, and sweaty.
"Stupid Uchiha-san!" She called out angrily before her eyes snapped shut and she turned to go to sleep.
Almost there. It had been two hours since Hinata had left Sasuke and Itachi and they had just barely reached the gate to their house.
"Hey Sasuk-"
"Shut up, I don't want to hear it."
Sasuke was tired and irritated. The moment Itachi pulled into their driveway; Sasuke was already out of the car heading to his room. Itachi didn't even bother to check on him. Sasuke took off his shirt and lay on his bed, frustrated. He let out an angry grunt then yelled angrily into his bed.
"I HATE FEELING SO STUPID!"
"What a troublesome boy," Itachi said lying on his bed. He was covering his ears with his pillow to lower the noise coming from Sasuke's bedroom.
Itachi laid in his bedroom listening to his younger brother for half and hour, going on about how irritated he was. He had never heard his brother so upset.
"STUPID FRIGGIN CHICK," Sasuke yelled, punching the wall.
