The wind slightly danced with her midnight hair as she walked down the streets of her village. She was on her way to the academy to help watch over one of the classes.

It was early in the morning and not many people were outside yet. Her eyes watched the ground as her mind wondered off to the familiar face she learned to love.

To her, he was a god, an untouchable god. His shadowy hair would always lie perfectly against his head and his chocolate brown eyes made her melt. Just the thought of him had made heat rise to her face.

He was to perfect, almost as if he was just a part of her imagination. It was almost unbearable to watch as he would kiss her teacher during training, and even more unbearable to hear their meaningless "I love you".

She was once in love with a blonde shinobi but found herself rejected. It hadn't hurt as much as she had thought and finally realized what she had felt for him was pure admiration.

But this, the feeling she felt for her untouchable god was more than she had ever felt for the reckless blonde. It had been only a year since her rejection and only a year since she realized her heart was ment for someone else.

"Hinata?"

The kunochi looked up to see her teacher staring at back at her. Though she never wanted to admit it, she was beautiful. Her dark curls would always hang in the right spot and her crimson eyes seemed to know everything.

A goddess like woman, for a god like man.

Jealousy filled her chest and she wanted to run crying. Crying for what she was unable to have. What she'd never have, but she stood her ground.

"Y-Yes Kurenai-Sensi?" She managed to stutter, it was an old habit, an old habit she was finally starting to break.

Kurenai looked at her, studying her. Kurenai had always been a motherly figure to her and she could always come to her for advice, but lately she found herself straying away from her.

"The academy doesn't open for another 3 hours, want to get breakfast? Catch up on things? My treat!" She kindly asked and ended the sentence in a smile.

The kunochi searched her mind for a reason not to go. But there were no more reasons; she had already used them all. She knew she'd have to talk with Kurenai sooner or later, she just thought it'd be much later.

"Sure" I put on a fake smile as we walked off toward a restaurant.

It was a small café that was only open during the summer. It was petite and kawaii and served some of the best dishes known to Konaha. We were seated at a table and handed menus.

I looked up past my menu to look at Kurenai, she had found what she wanted and was waiting for my order. I looked back at the menu and the only thing that seemed even the slightest appetizing was to knock her out.

"May I h-have 2eggs?"

This was so unfair, why am I with her when I want to punch her in the face? I scolded myself for thinking that. I had no right to be jealous, he was hers, besides we were 15 years apart. Would never work anyway.

Kurenai ordered our food and the waiter was in the back. She looked at me, as if she already knew everything. That bitch, who the hell was she to look at me like that.

"Hinata, I'd like to ask you something."

"S-sure."

"I feel like, well… Like we're not as close anymore. We barely hang out and you only talk to me about missions and training." Her face turned mournful, it was clear she really missed those days. "Please, let me back in. Talk to me, about anything…."

The dispirit tone of her voice had caught her off guard. She wasn't expecting that. She didn't know how to reply, so instead she starred out the window, searching for words.

"I don't r-really know where to sta" Her voice was cut off as she saw her god walk down the street past their café. She found herself starring at him. He had a cigarette in his mouth, like always.

He turned his head and for the slightest of seconds their eyes met. Her body started to melt and she could feel the rush of heat in her face. She quickly looked forward starring but not seeing Kurenai.

Her chest started pounding as her blood started to race. She knew by now he had seen Kurenai and was on her way in the café.

Calm yourself Hinata. Be calm, or you'll attract too much attention. Noticing for the first time that she had been starring at a confused teacher she quickly thought of something to say.

"I, I just remembered" Kurenai gave her a puzzled look but didn't say anything. "I have to go meet Naruto!"

The first name in a long time, she had not stuttered, maybe her habit was finally cured. She quickly spun out of her chair and raced toward the door without noticing she hit a soft, warm wall. The scent was welcoming her.

"Hinata?" his voice, that pure voice that has to belong to a god.

I looked up and slowly felt blood rush to my face. Everything blurred, and I felt myself fall backwards. "A-Asuma-Sensi"
