Promises Made in a Stupor
Chapter One: Getting Ready
"WHAT?" was the simultaneous scream of two poor children. The shout was heard throughout the village, waking several grumpy old people and stupid dogs that started to bark like the world was about to end. There was a lavender-eyed girl with dark hair and a boy with similar dark hair and a bad past. Both were tricked into a date while in a stupor of soda, cake, popcorn, ice cream, and sugar the week before. It was SUPPOSED to be a school trip, but chaos ensued. But, THAT is another story—a much more fun, stupid story for later.
"Yeah, you said you would! You even asked everyone if it would be all right!" Ten Ten said, grinning like a goat. Hinata suddenly wondered why Ten Ten's grin reminded her of a goat, but before she could reach a solution, Ten Ten ripped off her clothes and put on new ones.
"W-wh—"
"It's a special technique we girls use when we know we're running late," Ten Ten replied. Hinata wore a simple black dress that ran to her knees with a white, satin ribbon that tied below her bust. Straight silver dangling earrings were well placed and straight along with a cute matching purse that slung around her shoulder. Cute strapping black heels finished the look. Ten Ten circled Hinata and nodded.
"Perfect—now, about your hair…"
"I-I like my hair the way it is!"
"Oh, me too," Ten Ten agreed. Hinata sighed in relief. "I was just wondering how we could make it silkier so when he runs his hand through your hair it feels like water!"
To Hinata, it sounded like Ten Ten really expected something to happen on this date. Before she could protest, Ten Ten declared, "TO THE SALON!"
"But—"
She was too late. Ten Ten dragged Hinata out of the house and charged to the salon.
'What if we bump into Sakura or Ino on the way…?' Hinata finished mentally, fearing the death glares from the two most villainous good guys in her class. They'd rip her to shreds and give them to Sasuke as a sacrifice or something. She had heard they were that dedicated to the boy.
"Salon lady, we need to keep her hair the same, but shampoo and condition it so it's bouncy and silky!" Ten Ten stated. A single nod and Hinata was brushed off to the washing and conditioning station of the salon.
'Why couldn't this be a date with Naruto? Or even a date with Kiba would be fine—just anyone BUT the most popular guy in class! All those girls are going to kill me!' Hinata thought as her hair was being washed. Then again, she hadn't seen them all day. Maybe they were planning something worse… like sabotage.
"Finished. I'll just comb it and you can be on your way!" the salon lady announced and Hinata gave a nod of thanks. They were out of the salon as quick as they entered. Ten Ten dragged Hinata along and guys gave Hinata whistles… which made her blush.
"Stupid guys. Jealous they couldn't get their own dates," she heard Ten Ten mutter. The weapons specialist pulled her along faster, but Hinata wasn't good on heels. "Come on, Hinata. Your date is in—OH MY GOD."
"What? Neji isn't here, is he?" Hinata piped up, suddenly worried. If her cousin saw her like this, who knows that kind of incest feelings could bubble up within her older cousin. Ten Ten tugged in Hinata.
"Don't think like that! This author isn't like that!" Ten Ten scolded. "I'm talking about that fine lookin' guy over there! The SUPER fine one."
Dark, silky hair that shined like the night sky. Dark eyes that seemed to engulf everything. A light collared shirt unbuttoned with a dark blue shirt underneath and matching jeans. And those eyes looked straight at Hinata.
"T-that's…"
"Super fine and SEXY," Ten Ten finished, pushing Hinata towards Sasuke. Naruto, Sakura, and Ino stood behind Sasuke. Hinata could feel the burning frenzy of jealousy coming from the two girls.
"H-hello, Sasuke."
"Hey. Let's get this over with," Sasuke said lazily, walking off. Hinata pursued with one last reluctant look to Ten Ten. She only got a thumbs up and a threat written on Ten Ten's hand.
Ditch him and Neji will end up killing Naruto.
'This can't be all THAT bad,' Hinata assured herself. She was wrong.
It would get worse.
End of Chapter One: Getting Ready
Author's Note: OMGWTFBBQ? Yes, that's my thought exactly. I thought that maybe I should try out something new. And ALTHOUGH I would rather cut Sasuke and throw him into a tank of sharks, I'd like to give HinataxSasuke a try. Everything deserves a try. This is probably one of the stupidest stories I'm about to write--and I'm excited! I plan on writing about the field trip another day. XD That sounds like a fun fanfic.
Fears the burning eyes,
