I am so happy that it my story was liked. And for the pairing I am still not sure. Take in mind that Boruto, and Sarada and Hima will be in the story but in later chapters.

Here is the chapter.

I don't own anything…but I wish I did. I would have made Hinata have more screen time.

Anyway…enjoy.

Her steps loud and profound. Nothing compared to the ones before. She came upon a small pond, with beautiful flowers growing by the edge. Varying from roses to tulips. It warms her soul to be in close proximity of it. Nothing compared to this clearing. It was her sanctuary. A place of solitude for her.

"Hinata?!" she heard a voice called.

She turn around to face a complete stranger. Someone who had found about her sanctuary. Anger began building inside her, but like magic it went away. But curiosity surge inside her.

"Who are you?"

She hadn't seen him appear and neither did she sense his presence. She could sense people around it was her gift. A power especially given to her. It was something she had train in secret for years. A power that came with her family gift.

"I am Toneri and I came for you."

Toneri. Where had she heard that name before?

He had soft strong voice. The once that could interest you as soon as they spoke a word. It was cold but at the same time warm. It stirred something inside her. Fear and comprehension.

The last one she had no idea why?

But that didn't matter at the moment for her.

"Came for me?" she squeaked. She felt a chill ran down her spine. Fear began gripping her body, slowing her heart beat.

Now she remember where she had heard it. From her father, the man that loved her and hated her at the same time.

Toneri.

She could hear it loudly in her ears. The soft thump of her heart. She knows who he is. She always knew since she was a kid. Her mother told her but she didn't believe it. She didn't believe that someone will come for her. Taking her freedom with her away. Her mother words told her of future, a future she wasn't ready for and never will be. And at that moment she wish she had put attention like she should have.

Standing became hard for her, her feet tremble with fear. She began quivering but Toneri choose not to comment on it.

"Yes, we are to be wedded. You father agreed since before you were born." The words freeze her and she gulp loudly. Marriage was a touchy subject for her and she didn't like were this conversation was going, even if it she knew how it will end.

"Marria—"

She didn't finished the sentence. She couldn't finish a word that brought pain to her. She didn't want to believe a word he was saying. The look in his eyes told her it was true. She didn't believe it. She didn't want. For a moment her thought circle around her. She had thought he had been joking trying in his own form of showing comfort to her. Comfort for her broken heart.

I am pregnant. I can't have anybody noticing it. He will kill me.

She wanted to run and live happily with her two growing babies inside her. She wanted tranquility for once in her life. She was almost turning eighteen in a month. The war had just ended months ago. She wanted to be happy for the rest of her life. To enjoy the peace Naruto achieved with her help and her and his friends. She wanted to do things she like. Not to care what everyone said about her. But even if her mind was fragile at the moments the words that utter sound foolish to her.

Marriage.

"To-o-neri… fa-at-ther…" She stammered.

The thought of her father gripped her heart like chains wrap around her body, like a boa constricted ready to eat its meal. The thought of her father almost brought her to tears. She thought he loved her. That she was able to bond with him. That they could have good relationship but it seem more like a fairytale to her.

"Hinata, I know you loved him but he isn't good for you. I have a really nice man for you and you will learn to love him like it should. Naruto wasn't good for you my child. You need to learn to let go."

Hinata still remember the tone he used. It was lovely and pitiful. Sharping the already damage she had. Like punch in the gut to her she had continue sobbing.

It was then that she knew that her father never intended to let her marry the man of her choice. It was already plan since birth. A life she didn't want, nor had the least interest in.

A frown appeared on his face. He didn't look happy and it scared Hinata for a second. She saw a dark emotion swirl inside him. She regretted the words in seconds and gulp mental. She wanted to walk away without trouble.

"No. I am not lying. If you don't come with me. I am taking you by force." He growled at her.

She squeaked staggering backwards. She was scared of him. Scared that she wanted to go with him but at the same time something told her not to. To comply to his binding but at the same time telling her to run, far away and don't look back. Her head was clouded with thoughts, both bad and good, and it didn't let her think straight for a moment. The event that passed just moment ago were completely had weaken her will.

"I-I…"

Hinata couldn't make words come out. She fell feeble and white dots began clouding her vision.

I don't want to marry him.

His frown disappeared from his face the moment he detected Hinata's internal battle and he look hurt for a moment.

"You are my future wife. It was told since ancient times. Didn't your father tell you anything?"

Yes! He told me everything and that's why I am leaving.

He took a step forwards closing the gap between them. His hand touching her pale cheeks. Tracing circle around her cheek but Hinata flinch at his warm contact and close her eyes in worry.

"Is it so hard?"

Hinata's pearly eyes open to look at his face. She saw the sadness inside those white eyes. For a moment she wanted to alleviate his pain.

No.

She won't be sacrificing herself for people who didn't care for her. Not anymore.

He was handsome with his white hair and his pearly white eyes just like her, but her heart was shattered to the point that it will take time and a miracle to recover herself. She knows that with her two unborn children she may able to have a life. A life free of fighting but full of happiness. She made her decision and she wasn't backing down.

"I can't… I can't marry you!"

And that was when she saw black.
