Hinata peeked out from behind her mother's legs. She tugged at the sleeves of her lavender yukata with grape vines. New neighbors moved next door to her house and their obsidian eyes felt like they were piercing through her soul. How she wished she would disappear.
Sasuke sighed, stuffing his hands inside his pockets. He hated things like this , the Hyugas were apparently very stiff people drinking fancy beverages, talked like robots and wore fancy clothes. Even though their eyes were familiar. His mother looked like she was having more fun than him. Why should a five year old be in a place like this.
Not long after a suspicious aura began to erupt near him. His father looked as if he just came kicking puppies in a street alley. It was then he realized the two walking towards them.
"Hiashi" Sasuke's father greeted "Fugaku" Hinata's father stated. The air was thick until the two women spoke" Yoriko, hi its been forever since I've last seen you" Sasuke rolled his eyes at his mothers perkiness. "Mikoto you look amazing" While the adults conversed the raven haired boy spotted a lone figure behind Yoriko 'Huh' he thought to himself' trying to get a better view of the person. " oh , this is Sasuke my youngest son, the other is at home sick" Fugaku informed the man in front.
Sasuke nodded, barely paying attention to what was being said" hm right behind my wife is my eldest daughter Hinata". The small girl stepped out from behind her mother and shyly bowed. The Uchiha blushed a bit at her formality but soon dismissed it.
"Oh Hinata why don't you and sasuke go out side and get more...equated with each other" Yoriko pressed onto the children. " Why do I-" Sasuke stopped mid-sentence when he saw his fathers' glare had said" go now or i'll kick you instead of the puppies' and that's when he had Hinata lead him outside to the backyard.
Silence took over the two as the moon begin to come into view and shined down on the Hyugas .Thats when Hinata looked up to see Sasuke staring right at her and her face turned as red as a cherry. "Apple " Sasuke continued" " your face". Hinata blinked owlishly at him soon turning into confusion at to why he called an apple.
" your face is red like apples" The girls face turned even redder at the comment" w-well h-have you seen-your hair, i-it l-looks like a c-crows b-butt" He had no right to make fun of her when she never said a thing to him. Her outburst caused him to touch the locks in the back of his head and growl.
" Shut up apple face"
"M-make me crowbutt"
" Apple face"
" Crowbutt"
" APPLE FACE"
"CROWBUTT"
Sasuke pounced on Hinata and started tugging at her hair. The Hyuga knocked him off and punched him in the mouth bursting it. They wrestled each other till Sasuke elbowed her in the teeth and knocked out a tooth. A wave of satisfaction washed over him. " Thats what you get for talking about me". Even though he was saying this, Sasuke felt a little guilty. Hinata shook her head taking the baby tooth into her hands" you s-stharthed , beshide outho-san wash going tho thake thith outh with pliersh Thank you Sasuke-san" She gave a toothy grin to him, which he responded to with a small smile" You're welcome Hinata"
They stayed like that until one of the maids came out" Hinata-sama, Sasuke-sama its time to come in" She shouted to them. They looked at each other before racing back
" oh Sasuke what happened to you...oh well lets go say bye " Mikoto told her son" Bye appleface" " Bye crowbutt" The fathers raised an eyebrow while the women giggled at the nicknames they gave each other and how they came up with them.
As the Uchihas began to file, out Sasuke felt his mother's hand slip into his" so hun what do you think of Hinata-chan" She asked a little spark playing in her eyes " She's okay I guess a little weird, a good weird though" He answered with hesitation. " Hm interesting"

That night Hinata's light was on later than usual as she sat there frowning, getting her head brushed. Sasuke who couldn't sleep got up from his bed and looked out the window. From there he could see past the short fence right to Hinata's room.
" Hinata, you shouldn't be fighting boys, look what happened to your hair " Yoriko scolded to her daughter who winced." Noth s-so hard okka-san" The mother sighed and continued brushing unknowing to the smirking ba couple yards away." Sorry, sorry but maybe if you grew your hair out you could attract a nice boy" Sasuke leaned out to hear better. " and you can start dating" He was one hand out the window" oh then you can get married an-"" AAGH"
He fell
Dogs all along the street began barking, at that morning Sasuke's' parents didn't question the twigs and leaves inside his hair.

The summer soon ended and since then the Hyuga and the Uchiha have been inseparable, somewhat because their mothers wanted them to play with kids their own age, the rest was because they generally enjoyed each others company.
Hinata Stood outside her her house in front of the gates . It as her first day of kindergarten and the maids went all out with the make-up. Ivory skin powdered white, small pink lips painted red and big round cheeks were dusted with red blush. She looked like a porcelain skin to say in the least. That was when she heard a door opening and closing, with a small Uchiha coming out. Her father told her to walk Sasuke to school before he got himself lost. Why didn't his mom bring him it was a question unsolved.
When he saw her he frowned thinking of ways to annoy her maids for basically painting his friend. Also of ways to annoy her for allowing it."tch what are you supposed to be"Sasuke mocked her in his usual annoyed tone. The lavender eyed girl growled" as she watched him enter the forest . Catching up to him, she huffed a breath and crossed her arms" something you could never be...cute " Hinata retorted looking away" At least I don't rely on paint to make me look better idiot"
" Why you call me an idiot stupid" She pushed him," Why you call me stupid , idiot " he pushed her back but onto the ground. " Stupid crowbutt" she shouted getting up and tackling him " oof, ergh idiot apple face" you gonna get it". Sasuke yanked at her clothes and pulled one her hair. Hinata flipped him over digging his into the grass and started laughing as did he. After what seemed like forever , the two finally stopped and looked at each other, it was then looks of horror spread over their faces." WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE"Getting up and sprinting , the kids glided down the dirt path and into the clearer pathways. Sasuke and Hinata made it to the school, trying to find their room.
" Alright class if thats everyone then lets get started , i'm Harumi-sensei" Her introduction was cut short by the slamming of a door. Every kid turned their head to the noise and gasped." S-sorry w-we're h-here" Hinata stuttered out and would have fell if not for barely holding her up. " Thank you for joining us so late take a seat" When the two tied to go in they got stuck and had to fight their way in . The kids and the teacher giggle at their new classmates and knew it was going to be a fun year. " Well they're an interesting pair ha-ha"

When recess came around Hinata had went to the bathroom to clean off the makeup and dirt while Sasuke waited for her by a large tree.. That was when he looked up to see 30 girls staring at him as if he was the last juice box. To say his only option was to make a run for it.
" Huff stupid crow, made me dirty, where he at anyway" Hinata muttered to herself looking around the playground. He wasn't at the slides or near the swings, so where was he. " Apple h-help" she heard turning her head to see a glob of girls trying to claw at the bottom half of her friend. A sly smile crawled onto the Hyugas face and Sasuke wanted to smack it off, " my name is not apple" Hinata said crossing her arms with a mug look. Sasuke almost blanched but took a deep breath between gritted teeth. " Help me... Hinata"
She nodded grabbing his hands and pulling as hard as she could. The girls already loud screams increased as she realized what had happened. Sasukes boxers were showing . Hinata did the only thing she could do, put her hands on her shoulders and pushed the Uchiha back into his shorts" Hey what are you doing , stop" She ignored his rants and left.
" I wonder who's at the sandbox"
