Lonely In Gorgeous
Disclaimer: I don't own a damned thing…I wish I did…my own personal Gaara would be nice.
Kakashi: Are you serious?
Sera: Of course! He's like a cuddly raccoon plushy!
Kakashi: -closes his book- Yeah…the kind that glare and threaten your life.
Sera: I wonder how something so adorable hasn't been created yet?
Kakashi: Riiight…I'm sure something that evil would be popular.
Sera: I know!
(Alternate universe thingy…they are in HIGH SCHOOL)
Hinata climbed skillfully out of her bedroom window. She looked back and forth, making sure she wasn't being followed. When she was sure, she tip toed along the wall until she saw the front gate. Climbing this, she knew, would be tricky but she needed to see Shino and Kiba, after all they had called her for a meeting of sorts.
'Figures that your two best friends just need to meet for what?' She had no idea what they would want. Sure they were slightly socially conscience when it came to parading their relationship, and maybe they liked people to assume that they had a thing for her instead of each other. 'They must want to rehearse a sort of 'fight' they will have for my 'attention' goodness they are worse then children!'
She couldn't help but giggle though, at the image of the two lovers lying about loving her. She shook her head deciding to think on it later.
She strolled over to the gate and climbed it with no real effort, falling on her feet like a cat. She stood straight up, starred at her house for a moment, prayed Neji didn't use his super freaky spidey senses and stayed in his room reading or talking with Lee.
"What are you doing out Hinata?"
Hinata stood straight up and turned slowly to see her neighbor. She relaxed.
"Hey Kankuro."
Kankuro smiled at the younger girl before placing a cigarette between his lips and lighting it. ( I know I made him a smoker…)
"Hey."
They stood awkwardly for a moment.
"So, why are you out so late?"
Hinata looked up at the dark sky and sighed.
"Shino and Kiba."
Kankuro nodded.
"That's a long walk."
"I know but they need me."
Kankuro blew out blue smoke and starred at the girl for a moment considering something.
"That's all good but it's too far a walk. C'mon, I'll take you."
Hinata smiled gratefully at the older boy as she followed him to his old red jeep. She climbed in, starring at her hands nervously.
"Mind if Gaara comes? He's been itching to get out of the house tonight."
Hinata shook her head as her face reddened. Gaara was her neighbor, but unlike his kinder slightly jerky brother, he was as cold as ice and intimidating. Kankuro didn't notice the change in her and whistled loudly for his brother. Moments later a boy with black jeans, black t-shirt and flip flops came bounding out the tan colored house like a bat out of hell. He scratched his short unruly red hair as his teal eyes looked at his brother and paused on her. His black ringed eyes shut for a moment before he climbed in behind her.
"Hey."
She squeaked.
"C'mon Hinata he wont bite unless ya ask him to." The older boy laughed as he started the jeep and pulled out from the parking space rather quickly. Hinata sat quietly as Kankuro had also stopped speaking. He was too busy driving and smoking.
"S-so why did you decide to come along. G-Gaara?"
The red head shrugged.
"Temari's being annoying."
"Oh."
He leaned forward to get a good look at her and smirked.
"I make you nervous." He stated before sitting back crossing his arms over his chest.
Kankuro sighed loudly.
"Gaara…"
Gaara laughed.
"No, I'm not offended that I apparently make her so frightened I mean goodness I do that to so many other people…"
'Sarcasm.' Hinata thought. 'He's being so sarcastic and he's laughing like an insane person.' She squirmed in her seat.
"I'm sorry."
Gaara stopped laughing.
"Don't be, just try not to be so nervous around me next time."
She nodded.
"Sorry about my little brother he's a bit intense."
'Intense! He's more then intense! That damn raspy voice scares the hell outta me…although…' She blushed. 'It's kinda hot…' She shook her head willing away the blush and thoughts.
"You think it's sexy." Gaara said amused. He had leaned forward to look at her blushing face and noticing that she got redder when he neared he couldn't help but lower his voice, making it deeper if humanly possible, and whispered into her ear.
"HEY! No fooling around in my jeep!" Kankuro said at a stop light. He looked at both his brother and the blushing girl. "If I aint getting' none, neither are you guys."
Gaara smirked and leaned back, Hinata's looked down at her lap.
"Sorry."
Kankuro stopped in front of the Altair Café where Shino had told her to meet him. The three made their way inside to see Shino and Kiba with…Ino?
"Ino? What are you doing here?"
The blonde smiled.
"What? I cant come out to see a couple of friends?"
Hinata shrugged and sat beside Ino with Gaara and Kankuro following.
"So, what's up?"
Shino brought something out of his pocket and handed it to her. She took the parcel and opened it to find a bracelet.
"This is pretty!" She held it up, staring at the butterfly charm. "Why'd you give this to me?"
Shino didn't say anything. Kiba though smiled and handed her a card with a gift certificate to Happy Berry, her favorite clothing store.
"Thanks Kiba!"
Ino was next, handing her a wrapped up gift which was strangely enough a book.
"It's not makeup but I figured you'd just love this!"
Hinata looked down at the red book and smiled.
"It Eiri Yuki's newest novel and…OMIGOD it's signed!"
Ino smirked.
"It took forever to get big grumpy cousin to sign it but in the end his boyfriend managed to get him to do with certain threats."
Hinata giggled. Ino's older, sexy cousin was a grump but Ino seemed to get her way around that and get whatever from the novelist.
"Thanks Ino. Guys thank you but what's the occasion?"
"Well it's not really an occasion per-say…it's a "don't need him no matter how sexy he was-day."
Hinata starred at Kiba, thinking hard of what he could possibly mean.
"Uh, I'm confused?" Kankuro said looking to his brother. Gaara just shrugged.
"Don't look at me, I have no idea what's going on."
Hinata's face contoured then in sadness then she smiled. 'Oh, I forgot.'
"Thanks guys."
"What is it?" Kankuro ask leaning forward.
"Well this would have been my one year anniversary with Naruto but he broke it off last month and…well…"
Kankuro smirked.
"That idiot broke it off with you?"
She nodded.
"No offense Hinata, but he's a loser who isn't worth your time." Gaara said looking at the menu in front of him. He waved for a waitress.
"My bro's right. I mean look at him now, dating the chick with no brain…whats her name?"
"Sakura."
Kankuro was making it a bit worse, considering that now Hinata was sobbing, Kiba was yelling, Shino was fuming and Ino was hitting his arm.
"Sorry! How was I supposed to know that the idiot girl's a popular cheerleader? Man, what the hell am I doing around you kids anyway?"
Gaara, whom was busy drinking up his frap slid a piece of cheesecake to Hinata. She starred at him strangely.
'What's he doing?'
Gaara sighed.
"I didn't get you anything."
She took the cheesecake and smiled.
"Hey Gaara?"
"Hn?"
"Would you like to sit by me on the bus tomorrow for the trip?"
He lifted a non-existent brow before nodding.
"Thanks Gaara."
She looked at her group of friends and smiled.
'They're so weird!'
