Later then I expected but at least I updated.

Chap 2: Broken

In their way back Naruto kept talking about what had happened with the village and some of the rookie nine. Even though he wanted to he didn't asked about Hinata. It would be too weird and even Naruto, being as dense as one can be, would suspect something. And now he found himself face to face with her and couldn't even think right, he was speechless. She had changed so much; if he came across her he wouldn't have recognized her. When Hinata came across his mind he would think of the twelve years old Hinata. The petit, shy, sweet one with short hair and baggy clothes.

Now in front of him he didn't saw that girl. He saw a perfectly well grown seventeen years old woman. Yes, she cold be young but the word 'girl' did not suit her anymore. She was tall now, but still was a head smaller then he was. She was still petit, but that didn't mean she didn't have a good body; he could see now because she wasn't wearing her baggy clothes, actually it looked like she put on whatever was in front of her, which was true and was his fault for waking her in the middle of the night. Her hair was at her waist and still had that shiny midnight bleu color; it was natural though he always wondered how her hair was naturally blue, but then he remembered his teammate had pink hair so he stopped thinking about it. But she hadn't just changed physically, he noticed something in her eyes that he was sure he never saw before: confidence. It was in her body language too. It was weird was weird, he couldn't place Hinata and confidence together, and now it was there like it always had been.

"Sasuke?" She repeated since he didn't answered the first time. He just stood there staring at her.

"Hinata?" He asked as if not believing it was really her.

"Hai." She said smiling at him. Then he knew it was her; only she could smile like that after so much time, after all that had happened. That sweet smile that normally would make peoples hearts melt. But to Sasuke it only made his heart feel like it was being poked by a kunai.

"It's been a long time ne?" She asked still smiling at him

"Hn"

"As talkative as always I see. Did you called me here to grunt ay me or are you actually going to say something?" She was surprising him too much. The Hinata he knew would never say something like that; but then again it had been more than five years.

"Yeah. I came to talk about me coming back"

"What about it?"

"Just to tell you that just because I'm back it doesn't mean that anything changes." Then he waited for her expression to change, but to his surprise it didn't change to sad how he expected but to angry. That was new for him, he never saw her truly angry. The closest to angry he ever saw her was a childish mad that didn't really work because it made her look more cute than threatening. But now she looked completely threatening, not cute at all; sexy maybe.

"You came back, told me to meet you and for what? To tell me what you already told me almost ten years ago?!?"

"Yes" He said matter-of-factly. Hinata hung her head low and her shoulders began shaking , for a minute he thought she was crying but then she looked up and he saw in her eyes something that made the air come out of his lungs. Hate, her eyes held so much hate that would make Itachi proud.

"You didn't change one bit did you?!? Still the same Sasuke that the only thing in his mind is revenge. You doesn't care who you hurt to get it right? Not even me, I thought we were friends that we were… But you shoved me off so long ago that I don't even know why I still had hope. Good bye Sasuke." Then she stormed off, not giving him the time to reply. But even if she had stayed longer he wouldn't have said anything anyway. He was still shocked from the look in her eyes. After a few moments what she said finally made it's way through his head.

"Sorry Hinata…" He whispered to the night. He knew he deserved everything she told him, and even worse. He finally left to his old house, the thought on his mind being only of what had happened.

While Hinata was running back to the Hyuuga manor she only built up her anger.

"How could he do this to me? Again!" Was all she thought while running. When she got home she ran through the halls in the direction of her room, not caring if she woke anybody up. She stopped in the middle of the hall and fell on her knees finally feeling the real emotions taking over her anger. Sadness. She was trying hard not to cry but the tear were threatening to spill like a waterfall. A door opened next to her but she didn't mind getting up; the person in that room was the reason why she had stopped there.

Neji looked at his cousin from the door of his bedroom then he walked over her and took a better look at her face. He could se she was trying her best not to cry. He sighed and then picked her up bridal style, that made her gasp but soon she was clinging to his chest and crying her eyes out. He went to his bedroom, closed the door and sat on his bed with Hinata now on his lap and still crying. He good with words so the only thing he could do to calm her down was to stroke her hair.

He had broken her again. It had taken her such a long time to pick the pieces from the last time and now that she was fully recuperated he broke her again. Damned be Uchiha Sasuke. How could he do this to Hinata? He knew why and found the reason to be the most selfish thing he ever hear. "You bring too many memories and I can't afford to have emotions or people to care about. So pretend we never meet" Just remembering made him sick. Hinata didn't deserve to be treated like that and he had a person to blame for her being the state she was now. Actually he had two; Uchiha Itachi also had part of the blame for going crazy, destroying his clan a de mental heath of his cousin's childhood friend.

"No." Hinata said abruptly cutting his thoughts. He looked at her face to see that she had the look she usually had when fighting; one of determination. "I won't let him make me cry again. I've spilled too many tears over him."

"Hinata…"

"Thank you, Neji. And good night." She got up from him and gave him a quick peek on the cheek like she always do before they go to bed or on a mission.

"Hinata" He whispered when she was already gone, touching his cheek

Sasuke had woken up the next day with Naruto banging on his door. He had forgotten how it was to wake up like that and now that he remembered he thought what he always thought of it; annoying. It was past noon when Naruto finally convinced him of changing and going out. While out in the streets he saw people staring curiously at him but none of them seemed to hate or fear him which made him wonder.

"Naruto, what have people been told about me?"

"Well, most of them don't know anything"

"Who knows?"

"The high ranked shinobis and the important clans. And the rookie nine, of course."

"Hn. So where are we going?"

"To the hospital"

"Get you head checked?"

"Very funny. No, we are going to go see Sakura." Sasuke didn't respond and just kept walking here Naruto was heading. He almost forgot about Sakura.

When they got to the hospital Naruto told him to stay quiet, what he didn't get because the hospital seemed deserted, save for a woman who had her back to them and looked like a doctor. Naruto walked over her without making any noise which confused him even more.

"Hi Naruto." A voice he could recognize anywhere said

"Aw, Hinata. Why can't I ever surprise you?"

"You really think you can sneak up on someone with the Byakugan?" Sasuke said now next to Naruto. Hinata stared at him wide eyed and her mouth opened a little in shock. He almost smirked at this; Hinata had always been a good actress.

"Yo-you really brought him back" She said now looking at Naruto who had a sly smirk on his face.

"Yeah. And I want my payment." Hinata's face went from confused to shocked and embarrassed.

"Naruto!"

"What? We made a bet, I won"

"Bu-but…"

"You're going back on you word?"

"No! I give it to you later"

"No, I want it now."

"Demo, if someone comes in?"

"No one ever comes here this time of the day. Come on Hinata! It could be over by now"

"Fine" She said with a sigh, coming closer to him

"What…" But before Sasuke could say anything else she did something that shocked him. She kissed Naruto! And he was kissing back! They stood there for what it felt like an eternity – it were actually twenty seconds – When they pulled apart Naruto had a smirk on his face and Hinata a faint blush.

"See. That wasn't so bad" He said grinning at her

"Whatever. Did you come here only for this?"

"No. We came to see Sakura. She doesn't know yet."

"She will be very surprised. And happy. She's at the third floor."

"Thanks. Could you stay here with Sasuke for a minute? I want to make a surprise for her."

"Sure Naruto." She smiled at him and went back to her papers.

"What the hell was that?" Sasuke finally asked when Naruto was gone

"A kiss." She said matter-of-factly not looking up from her papers

"I could see that. Why did you kiss?"

"Naruto made bets with almost all the rookie nine and Neji's team. If he could bring you back before we were all twenty years old he won."

"And why did you have to kiss him?"

"It was the bet we made. But why do you care?"

"I don't"

"If you don't care, why so many questions?"

"It's just weird that all of a sudden you kiss Naruto as if was nothing. Weren't you obsessed with him?"

She was about to answer but they heard the sound of something falling and looked to see what it was. They saw Naruto looking with a worried look at Sakura who lay on the floor.

"I think it was too much of a shock for her"

Well, what did you think?

I couldn't help to put the bet scene…It didn't get out of my head…
