Author Notes: Hello. Thank you for bothering to click on this fan fiction. It was supposed to be a one-shot; however, I somehow managed to extend it.
This idea was created by Simmering-Tofu. She gave me this idea in hopes of me bringing it to life. I hope she will be satisfied.
Disclaimer: Nothing fancy. Simple and to the point. I do not own Naruto.
"Blah blah blah": Inner Hinata...I believe under all that shyness, Hinata can be bold and loud too…
Naruto's POV
Happiness.
What did it mean now? I was always the "happy" one. The one that smiled like an idiot. The same grin was still plastered on my face. It became a habit now.
But I feel nothing.
Empty. Void.
I used to be so cheerful. Always enthusiastic about everything. I used to think in exclamation marks. Everything used to be so colourful; so bright.
But a cold breeze froze my emotions. My happiness left with Sasuke.
My best friend. He left. Gone. Like my happiness.
I feel like I am in a trance. Stuck.
What am I living for? I will never become a great Hokage. Who am I kidding? The villagers hate me. I'm the Demon.
"Believe it!"
Sure. It feels like a joke now.
Pathetic.
Nobody believes in me. Not even Sakura. It is like the mere hint of their acceptance towards me vanished with his departure.
I'm a failure.
An utter failure.
Hinata's POV
When Sasuke left for Orochimaru, it's like Naruto did too. Although he pretends to be okay, I know he's not. Everyone else is convinced that he's fine; they think I am being paranoid.
You are.
I don't classify continuously asking everyone how he is feeling, seven days week, paranoid.
Sure.
Or sneaking peaks at him, to see if he is still pretending, paranoid too.
Keep telling yourself that
I am...your are me!
I want to make him feel better. It's as though he lost his self confidence, which he probably did. I want to let him know that there is still at least one person who cares for him.
He probably feels unloved. Nobody believes in him
How could they? The villagers disrespect him just because he is the Kyubi container. He is more than that. He's just a boy... who is kind, nice, caring, thoughtful, helpful…HINATA! STOP OBSSESSING!
Okay, now where was I? He is just a boy who is determined to be able to feel respected. He wants others to believe him. But everyone has no hope in him. He doesn't have any hope left as well.
I want to change this. I have made my decision.
For once, I will disobey customs and go against the current.
Break the cycle.
AN: So how was it? Please review! This is my first ff...so I want constructive criticism. Thanx!
