Hitomi Inuzuka took a deep breath as she stormed out of Senchi Uchiha's bedchamber. He'd tricked her… again. "That JACKASS!" She frowned as she made her way down the hall towards the exit. Her brown hair cut to just above her shoulders. Her cat-like crystal blue eyes a lit with anger. She felt like her skin was on fire, and it very well might have been. She didn't care. She was pissed. How could he pull a stunt like that? And yet, for some reason, unknown to her, she still cared for the boy. "Damn him. Damn him to hell!"
Nawaki stood there outside of the exit silent with his arms crossed in front of him and his head down. His mind was still a bit fuzzy over what he had just saw. His stomach turned over violently with anger. She… kissed him… Senchi. The man who faked his own death. His hand swung widely and he hit the wall he was leaning against. Closing his eyes he cradled his hand and looked up at the night sky. He had no clue where he stood with Hitomi… he had to know… was it him or was it that man that hurt her emotionally and mentally. Who did she want in her life more?
Hitomi paused when she felt the whole place shake. She frowned softly as she walked over and opened the door. "Nawaki?" her voice was soft and pained. Her cat-like eyes sad as she tried to look at him. She felt guilty. And with good reason. "Nawaki… please…. Look at me." She reached out to him.
He continued to look up at the sky for a few moments before pushing off the wall and walking towards the gates to leave. He didn't want to talk here. Not when he was about to explode at the one person who was dear to him. "… Just… Common. It's getting late." He said this low and cold to her. His emotions getting the best of him. Flexing his hand a bit he placed it in his pocket softly as to not disturb the wounds he had inflicted on himself.
She frowned deeply but followed without saying anything to him. Guilt sitting hard in her throat. She wanted to say something, anything to make everything okay again. She hated feeling this way. She hung her head and dragged her feet. She hated herself. She sighed softly. She just wanted to get this over with.
Nawaki stopped after awhile the pair almost to their destination. They were back within the Fire Country. "Do you want to go back with me or stay with him?" He turned to look back at her. His face serious and hard as stone. His eyes were cold and unwelcoming. They were completely different then how he normally looked at her.
She stopped dead in her tracks. Those eyes… they were so cold. She shuddered. "I don't think I understand." She wasn't being stupid or playing dumb. She knew that it was a loaded question. And one she couldn't answer wrong.
He sighed and crossed his arms. "Stop playing Hitomi. Me or him. Right here, right now. I'm tried of playing games with people and I'm stopping this one now. Before it goes any further. Me, or that jackass."
Her heart stopped. She knew that this day would come but… not so soon. Not here, not now, and she had hoped not ever. She didn't want to answer. She didn't even have an answer. She stood there for some time, carefully choosing her words before she spoke them aloud. "Nawaki." She started very slowly. "You know you can't make me decide. It's not fair. I love you both. Senchi will always have a place in my heart, and so will you. And over time, One of you will overpower the other, and then I can make a choice. But I can't do that now." She looked down. "I'm sorry, but I can't."
He looked down for a while. Silent as he though to himself before walking off in another direction. He didn't head to the Fire Country or even after Senchi. He was leaving everything behind. He was leaving her behind. The answer she gave him wasn't what he wanted. It wasn't good enough. "See you around Hitomi."
She watched him start to walk off. "Wait. Where are you going? What do you mean see you around? Nawaki?" She started to follow him. "Please.. Don't leave."
"Just… go home Hitomi." He didn't turn around or stop. He was tired of the crap he dealt with up until now, and the thought of leaving had plagued his mind for a while now, but to leave like this wasn't something that he wanted. And yet in the end, he had decided on leaving anyways.
Tears began to well in the corner of her eyes. "Fine!" She called out after him. She stopped and frowned. "Leave then! See if I care! You're just the same as Senchi!!" Tears made their way down Hitomi's cheeks. Her knuckles turned white from the pressure of squeezing her hands into fists.
That made him stop and bow his head for a few short moments. He fully turned around and took a couple of steps towards her slowly. "Am I dieing before you?! Am I pretending that I no longer exist?! DON'T COMPARE ME TO HIM! I may have hurt you Hitomi. But I never.. NEVER lied to you. Not in those ways…" He was now face to face with her; the gap had been closed and pointed down at her. His eyes stung with his own unshed tears. He partially wanted to hit her, but backed off. He'd been hurt by her again that night. He looked at her in silence.
Anger and pain flared up inside of her. Her eyes changing into a golden yellow. "And yet here you are. Leaving when you should be standing strong." She shook her head, her voice strained. "You're a coward Nawaki. Just. Like. Him." Her last words biting, deep. Attacking his pride. And her eyes locked with his.
There was along silence. Neither said a thing, nor did either move. A coward? Him? He shook his head at her, his own eyes blazing with anger. Three times. He looked away before bringing his eyes back up to look at her. His voice wasn't the same. It wasn't kind, caring, nor was it loving in any ways. "Then deal with this crap yourself!" He turned and began to walk away from her. "I'm tired of playing this game of tag."
She didn't say anything. Not this time. She simply stood there and watched his back. Waiting for him to disappear. And as he got further away, her sense came back to her. Instantly, she regretted every word she'd said. When she could no longer see him, she collapsed into a sobbing heap. On her knees, she leaned forwards pressing her hands against her eyes tried to clam herself. After a few seconds, she looked up at where she'd last seen Nawaki. "I'll wait for you…." Her voice was soft. "I'll wait here for as long as it takes."
