It was spring. Start of a new school year for Konoha Academy. Cherry blossoms are blooming everywhere. Everyone seems excited for another youthful year of their high school life. "Ohayou-gozaimasu, Hinata-san" a swarm of boys line up, like soldiers who saw their princess. "A-a-ano, y-you don't need to that every morning. It's kind of embarrassing," said by the beautiful young lady who's making her way inside. As usual, she was stuttering a lot, especially when she's embarrassed. "Yo, Hinata! Being so popular, as always, in start of the school year, ha?" A girl with brown, twin-bun, hair approaching her said while letting out a laugh.

"It's n-not like that Tenten-san. They just greeted me."

"Greeted you? You must be kidding me? I was impressed by how you analyze things. WAHAHAHA!" said by the brunette patting her back.

"Hmp. It's the truth though." Hinata pouted.

"You know, these dudes here have every right to praise you like a goddess. I mean look at you. You're smart, beautiful, kind, and talented and you're an ojou-chan."

"Y-you're e-e-exaggerating things, Tenten-san"

"Okay, enough with the stuttering. We're going to be late on our first class if we don't hurry."

And the two headed for their classroom just in time before the first period start.

The bell rang, reminding everyone that it is lunch time. "I felt like the teacher is really making the time to last longer. Ugh! My back hurts." Tenten said while massaging her left shoulder. "You think so? I think sensei is just being himself today. Wanna grab lunch?"

"Who would refuse that offer?! C'mon!"

Just before they left the classroom, a huge crowd of girls are screaming inside. "KYAA~ Sasuke-kun."

"Oh beautiful kitten how was your day so far?"

No wonder. It's because of the presence of the campus' hottest guy. Sasuke Uchiha is the only one who can pull off such entrance.

"See you later!" He said while flashing a flying kiss that send every fan girl to paradise.

"That Uchiha guy sends chill to my spine whenever he do that." Tenten said. They we're walking down the halls leading to the cafeteria. "He's a womanizer, I think," said by the Hyuuga who is getting the tray, ready to take their order.

"Yah! I mean, does he need to do that? Yes he's handsome but, for goodness sake he doesn't need to flirt with every girl the school."

"Maybe he's just enjoying his popularity. Don't sweat about it so much Tenten-san," Hinata was poking the meat balls on her pasta. She doesn't seem interested with the topic at all.

"Popularity my ass," rolling her eyes. "He even tries to flirt with me! Ugh! Just the thought of it send shivers every time. By the way do you have practice later? I'm heading somewhere so I can't walk with you home."

"No, I don't but, I have to finish something. Our president is out and we need to finish it today so, I'll be the one doing it."

"Your president is so lucky to have you. She was such a slacker." She said while chewing on her apple.

After talking with various topics, Tenten and Hinata headed to their classroom after they finish their lunch.

As the bell ring, Tenten immediately stand up and bid good bye to the young Hyuuga. Hinata fix her things and headed to their clubroom. She has to finish all the paper works today so that their club will continue to be an "official club" of the school. Hinata stayed in the clubroom until she finished all what is needed to be done. And before she even knew it, it was already dark. "That took forever to finish. Good thing it's done. I can finally go home." The young Hyuuga tidied up the room before she leaves. She turned off the light and finally locked the door. She was walking down the hall when she notices that the light in the gym was still on. I thought there's no one around here at this time. Why does the light there still on? Out of curiosity, Hinata went there and check it out.

Hinata headed in the lockers near the gymnasium, it was used by the basketball team. It was their office. She peeked there silently, not wanting anyone to see, but before she even knows it, she just found herself pinned on the wall, strong hands gripping her wrists beside her head. Her eyes were shut. She was panting. Her whole body was trembling by the thought that someone is trying to do something to her. She tried struggling from the grip but, it was too strong for her.

"Well, well. What do we have here?" The man was whispering, but quiet loud, on her ears. It sends shivers down her spine.

"L-let me g-go!" She was trying her best to break free from the man's grip. She can feel drops of water.

"Why should I?" He was tightening his grip.

"Because I said so and i-it hurts!" Hinata was still struggling.

"Eh? But you want this, right? That's why you come here in the first place," the man was obviously trying to tease her.

"W-wh-what? I was just checking because the lights are still on. Like I wanted to be raped," she was gradually opening her left eye, trying to look at the man's face. Yes, it was him, the man with midnight hair, the womanizer, Sasuke Uchiha. He was naked, not totally naked but half naked, she can clearly see that he just came out from the bathroom, the water she felt was from his dripping hair.

"As expected from you," the man finally released her from his grip. "You were not like the other girls, Hinata Hyuuga."

He was looking directly on her eyes. Onyx met the pale purple ones. His eyes were like a deep ocean. She can't read him at all.

"What are you talking about?" She was trying to sound brave while soothing her now free wrists.

"Like I mean, girls always fall head over heels for me, but you-"

"Because I have a boyfriend," Hinata didn't wait for the man to finish his sentence. "And no one will ever fall for a man who tried to rape them, right?" She said while raising her eyebrow.

"Don't worry Hyuuga-sama," he wanted to make that sarcastic enough to piss her, "I don't intend to make YOU fall for me. You're not my type at all." He was staring at her with a smirk on his face. He never saw him like this before. Usually, he was just a playboy who flirts with girls every time.

"Well then, that's good. I will take my leave now. Goodbye Uchicha-san." Just before she was about to leave, the raven haired man stop her. "Are you alone?"

"Yes," she answered him bluntly.

"Wait there." It was an order. An order she knew she had to obey if she doesn't want to involve with any more trouble with him.

He was really taking his time. Does he know it's already 8pm? And why do I have to wait here anyway? She let out a sigh. I'm not really thinking straight today. She thought while waiting patiently for him. Hearing the sound of closing door, she finally saw the Uchiha making his way out.

"Let's go." He commanded her, again.

"Why do you have to make me wait? Was it to make fun of me? Or maybe you're scared to be alone?" She was trying to piss the young man.

"I'll walk you home." He said calmly.

"Walk me home, ne? Oh, I thought you're just scared. . . . ." The idea doesn't sink to her immediately, until the reality of what he said struck her. "WALK ME HOME?!" Her eyes were popping out and her jaw drop.

"What are you some kind of an idiot? I said it in a way a normal person would get it, right? You got some mental disease or what?" He was rather annoyed by her reaction.

"Y-y-you don't have to w-walk me home," waving her hands in disagreement. She was stuttering a lot just by the thought that the mighty Uchiha will walk her home.

"That stuttering is rather annoying than cute so please, cut it out, ok?" He looked pissed. She was shocked. She never saw this kind Uchiha. "I'm not asking for permission. I'm doing it whether you like or not. As you can see, yours truly is a real gentleman and I don't like the thought of making a woman, or a girl in particular," he was eyeing her from head to toe, "to walk alone at this hour."

She was, again, shock by what he said. She can feel that her face was really getting hot and she was blushing really hard. She couldn't find the words to say.

"You're going home or what? Let's go!"

"H-hai!"

As they were walking, Hinata was in deep thought of what was happening a while ago. So he was really nice after all or he was just trying to flirt with me too? But, why would he sound so annoyed if he was making me fall for him? And besides, he said that he was not trying to make fall for him, right? She was interrupted when she suddenly bump onto Sasuke's back.

"Ouch! Sorry," she said while rubbing the forehead. "Is there something wrong?" She peeked on why he suddenly stopped and saw a group of men in front of them. They were dressed like bad guys in movies. They like gangsters, in fact.

"Now, what do we have here?" The one with the weird hairstyle was approaching them. "Brother, mind lending us that girl behind you?"

What? Is he talking about me? OMG! What should we do? She was panicking, but she never show any sign of it because she knew that it'll just make the gangsters to insist. However, she was more shocked by the fact that the man in front had this passive look in his eyes. He was totally calm. His onyx orbs never show fear. In fact, they were like saying "Dare to approach me and I'll kill you all."

"Uchiha-san, what should we do?" It was merely a whisper, but still audible enough for the young man.

"Shh! It's your fault. You should figure that out yourself." What is wrong with him? I'm asking nicely and he blurts out such rude words! She was protesting inwardly.

"Hey! Don't discuss things by yourself. Get them boys!" The other guys started to attack them. Hinata was really panicking. They had nowhere to run. They are surrounded by these goons. Sasuke, on the other hand, seems very calm. He took a deep breath and started to counter. The Hyuuga heiress was really amazed in the way he fights. He can easily dodge the attacker. She was really caught up in watching him fight. She didn't even notice the leader that was attacking her from the back. And before she can even make a move, she was caught. His left arm was wrapped around her neck. She can barely breathe.

"UCHIHA-SAN!" She screamed.

Sasuke shot his to the screaming girl. His onyx orbs were wide open. He was surprise to see her caught by the man with the weird hairstyle.

"Well, this is something. Even though you're still a high schooler, you've got nice body. Such soft skin will go to waste if you spend it with this boy. How about I make you into a woman tonight?" He licked her ears after. The Hyuuga beauty was screaming and crying. She was struggling to break free from the grasp of the shitty man.

The young Uchiha was distracted by acts of the leader, so distracted that he didn't notice that one of the gangsters was about to him with a pipe. "Uchiha-san!" Hinata shouted after seeing him got hit by a pipe. Sasuke was bleeding. He fell on his knees. He can't see properly. His head was spinning. Hinata bite the hands of the leader, she break free. The leader screams in pain. "Why you little bitch!" He was about to hit the young heiress, fortunately for them, there was a police roaming around.

"Boss the cops," one of them said. "Tsk. Let's go." And they run away.

Hinata let out a sign and then run to the aid of the bleeding Uchiha. "Oh my god, you're bleeding." The young Hyuuga was panicking. "Let's call and ambulance." Hinata was about to dial the emergency number but, suddenly stop by the young man. "Stop. I don't to go there. My parents will know and I'll get in much more trouble."

"Oh, ok. But what are we gonna do now? Oh, my apartment is just around the corner. Can you at least stand? Let's walk there."

She helped the young Uchiha and they walk to her apartment. She led Sasuke to her room and let him sleep there. Hinata went to the bathroom and get her first aid kit to at least stop the bleeding and clean his wound.

"Ouch, can you at least be gentle?! It fucking hurts!" the Uchiha growl.

"I'm trying, I'm trying. Just bear with it a little more." She said as she cleans the wound.

"I'll spend the night here. I can't walk home looking and feeling like this." He demanded.

"Okay. Just take a rest. And don't do something, okay?" She walks out the room and closes the door.

I really owe him one. Thanks to him nothing bad happen to me. Hinata was in deep thought as she was fixing in her things.

"Hey, do you want to eat some-" She pauses as she saw the young Uchiha sleeping soundly.

The bluenette slowly walks towards the sleeping Uchiha. When you look at him like this, when he's asleep, he looks like a nice guy. Wait, is he really a nice guy? I mean, he did save me a while ago. Is it all just an act? Or . . . , the Hyuuga heiress sigh. "Well, he did save me. He's not that bad after all." And she smiled while watching the raven haired high schooler sleep.
