Disclaimer:(checking) Nope, I still don't own Naruto...sigh
Walking to her father's study, Hinata contemplated what he might want with her. I don't think i've done anything wrong, she thought, almost running into a maid who was chatting happily with her companion. "Oh, i'm so sorry, Hinata-sama! I'm afraid I didn't see you!"said the maid, bowing apologetically. "That's all r-right, but may I ask w-what you were talking about before y-you ran into me?"said Hinata, thinking she had heard something about her father. "Well, I was just telling my friend that I had seen Itachi Uchiha in Hiashi-sama's study. He's sooooooo dreamy..."said the maid, looking into the distance for a second before her friend said good-bye and pulled the love-struck girl towards the kitchen. Itachi Uchiha? What on Earth is he doing in my father's study??
Itachi looked up when he heard the door to the study open hesitantly behind him. When his eyes fell on the young Hyuuga heiress, his mind emptied of all thoughts he had been thinking about. He felt like he had died and gone to heaven, since the person behind him could only be an angel. Her long, indigo-colored locks cascaded down her back and her bangs framed her heart-shaped face beautifully. Her lavender-tinted eyes stared curiously at the people in the study. Itachi had to refrain from smiling at her confusion. She's just so...gorgeous,he thought. On the other hand, Hinata was thinking,So this is Itachi Uchiha...I see no reason for that maid to be swooning over him. I mean, sure, he's not ugly, but there's nothing overly nice about him. Naruto is much better looking. Once Hiashi thought that their staring match had gone on for long enough, he nodded to Hinata and said,"Good of you to finally join us, Hinata. I was afraid that Naruto might have failed to give you the message. Please, have a seat next to Itachi-san." He waved his hand at an empty chair that Hinata had just noticed was there. Looking curiously at the two Uchihas, she accepted the seat.
"Father, may I-I ask w-what this is about?"asked Hinata, becoming uncomfortable under Itachi's stare. "Ah, yes, well, as i'm sure you know, our company has seen...better days, so, Fugaku-san and I were contemplating ways that would serve both of our companies well. That is why you are here."he said. "I'm afraid I-I still don't u-understand, Father."said Hinata, scratching her head in confusion. "Uh, well Hinata-san, what Hiashi-san came up with was to connect our two companies. Through marriage."said Fugaku, glancing at his son, then back at Hinata. "Oooooh...WHAT!?"she screamed, realizing, finally, why Itachi was in the office, too. "Y-you m-mean I-I have t-to m-m-m-marry HIM!?"yelled Hinata, her stutter becoming far more evident and her face turning an unknown shade of red. She pointed her index finger at Itachi, as if he were some sort of demon. "Man, I feel unloved."said Itachi, his oggleing of Hinata coming to a halt because of her rude statements towards him. "O-oh, i-i'm sorry! I didn't m-mean anything by that! I-It's just...i-i'm too young!"said Hinata, trying to think of an excuse. "That's not true. You'll be eighteen in a month."said Hiashi. "B-but, F-Father-" "No buts, Hinata! This is for the best. You would never have made a good president, anyway."said her father, closing his pale eyes and rubbing his temple. Well, that was kind of cold...thought Itachi, looking up at the now standing Hinata, who looked like she was about to cry. "U-um, pl-please e-excuse me."said the heiress, turning around and leaving the office, quickly. Itachi had got up to follow her, but he felt Fugaku grab his arm and pull him back down into the seat. "Don't worry about her, Itachi-san. She'll come around eventually!"said Hiashi, as if his oldest daughter hadn't just run out of the office in tears. This man is not very nice.thought Itachi, staring at the Hyuuga that was now talking to his father, excitedly, about the wedding that was set to happen in a month.One month is all I have to make Hinata love me. I don't want her to be miserable during our marriage.thought Itachi, thinking of he could ask for help. Ah! I know who i'll ask! Sasuke's fiance'.he thought, grinning inside his head.
MWAHAHA! Now then, who on earth could be Sasuke's fiance'?? (grins evilly) Just so you know, Sasuke's marriage is arranged, too, so it's not like he actuallywants to marry her.(that's only her) Next chapter: Sasuke is introduced! As well as some other people! Who I haven't thought properly about just yet! R&R!
