Itachi
He hated his brother for everything he did. He hated him for destroying the clan, for sparing his miserable life, for provoking his hatred and vengeance. He hated him most for giving him that poke in the head just before he died at the hands of his beloved little brother.
And he hated himself for breaking down and ended up in Hinata's room at the first anniversary of his death.
Sasuke hated Itachi very very much, which was why he knew how much he had also loved his brother.
And he never hated Itachi for bringing him to Hinata's arms.
Jealousy
He did not understand the strange emotion he felt when he saw Inuzuka reached out for her hand. He could not comprehend that clutch at his heart, that sudden rush of discomfort and perhaps a mixture of anger that rose within his heart when she let herself being led around by the lad.
He did not know that at the sight of Neji carrying her over his back his brow tightened, his hands folded into fists and he swallowed hard once or twice to get rid of that lump in his throat.
He did not know that he was jealous.
Kiss
He had not gone to her since that meeting with her cousin-she had come to him. At the sight of her he froze and fixed an intense gaze at her.
She looked beautiful, much beautiful than he remembered in the crimson setting sun. It was hard to tell whether it was just the light or she was blushing when she took a few hesitant steps to him and put her arms around him.
She looked up at him, stood on her toes and kissed his lips.
He stood motionless before snatching her up roughly and brought her to his bed.
Late
He stayed at his window despite his aching heart after she left. He was unsure of what to do; everything he wanted did not seem right.
He wanted her to stay for the night. He wanted to continue holding her in his arms, to feel her warmth, her body against his. He wanted her to belong to him and only to him even if it was only for tonight.
Then he realized that on top of everything this was really not a time for beautiful women to wander alone.
He dashed out and found himself too late; she was gone.
Mature
"You have grown so much, my daughter." She looked up and smiled at her father.
She knew that physically she was no longer a little girl; her face had grown into a strong likeness of her beautiful mother and her body invoked much fire in men, who struggled to hold their desire especially in the presence of her Niisan.
She had also grown wiser and bolder; even her fighting skills had rose to the level of an ANBU.
She knew that Hiashi knew that this shy little girl had matured to become the great woman he knew she would be.
Naruto
She wondered since when did Naruto started to fade from her thoughts.
She could not remember when and why the 6th Hokage ceased to be the only man she had in mind, though he remained as a wonderful friend that visited her often with Sakura.
He himself gave her a hint to her questions.
"Sasuke still seeing you?" he asked once in a low voice. "He said he started coming to you on the death anniversary of Itachi one night over hundreds of sake."
She smiled and nodded. And she blushed hard for the first time in four long years.
Oblivious
He was oblivious to the fact that he was almost crushed by great worry when he searched all over for her in the night. He was oblivious to his dry mouth, his increasing heartbeat, his slightly shaking hands and his anxious eyes as he willed for her to appear.
He did know that his blood raced furiously to his head when he found her trying to fight off a group of lust-filled and armed Sound ninjas.
And he did know that the only thing that stopped him from giving every one of her attackers a grisly death was Hinata's cries.
Pure
Her skin was like white silk, her eyes bright pearls and her delicate face carved from porcelain. She looked perfect as she laid asleep on his chest and in his arms.
He stroked her hair and cheeks before pulling her closer to him. Her heart was as innocent as her looks-Hinata had no thoughts of harm; he knew that if she did she would have taken those Sound Nin down easily at her current level of ability.
"You are just too kind…"
Sasuke wondered why he was blessed with having such a pure little thing so close to his heart.
