KK, no need to get on with intros, just gonna say I hate my retarded keyboard and that I don't own ANY of Naruto or the songs these chapters are based on.
This chapter is Hinata's understanding.
---------------------------------
Hinata couldn't help it. She enjoyed being with Sasuke, but she couldn't stop thinking about her ex boyfriend. The one who left her for some cheap kunoichi with exotic looking hair and a thinner body…but that didn't matter any more. She had Sasuke to be there for her. Even if it wasn't the same.
"So did you have fun today?" Sasuke asked when they finally got in the house.
Hinata laughed, "I didn't know kisses were so wet." She rang her hair out from the rain.
Sasuke came up behind her and hugged her. He put his lips on her neck and nibbled gently, "They could be wetter."
Hinata froze as she caught the innuendo. She giggled, "I'm sure it could."
With that Sasuke let her go and went into the kitchen, "Do you want me to cook tonight or do you have to be home?"
"My dad hates me, remember? He wouldn't give a damn if I came home or not," Hinata pouted. It was true. Her father didn't seem to care, even though she was once to be the head of the Hyuuga clan.
There was a long uncomfortable silence as Hinata remembered Sasuke didn't know what that was like since his older brother had wiped his family off the map. "Sasuke-kun?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry about your dad."
Hinata felt a guilty feeling fire at the bottom of her stomach. She hadn't meant to be insensitive to his situation, but it had certainly come out so.
"Sasuke, I'm sorry. I-I shouldn't have brought up my dad." Hinata walked to the doorway of the kitchen and looked in. Sasuke was staring out the window as the rain came tumbling down.
"It's alright. I'm use to it."
What's that supposed to mean? Do I talk about my family that much?
"I'm sorry." She apologized again.
"Forget about it, lets enjoy tonight," he turned and looked her in the eye, "what do you want for dinner?"
Hinata smiled, "Let's order Chinese!"
Sasuke smiled slightly, "Alright."
----------------------------
"How the hell does Chinese lead to this?" Hinata panted as she rolled on her side, pulling the blankets up to cover her chest.
Sasuke chuckled, "It was the fortune cookie's fault."
The two laughed and fell silent. Hinata laid her head on the pillow as Sasuke propped himself up with his elbow. Some how, the two had found their way to the bedroom after dinner.
"I'm one lucky guy, hm?" Sasuke cocked his lop-sided grin. He sat up and reached for his robe. "I'll be right back, I'm going to go take a shower."
He disappeared from the room, down the hall to the bathroom. Hinata watched sadly as he went.
She reached over for the phone on his side of the bed. She picked it up and looked down the hall to assure he wasn't coming back. She looked down at the phone and speed dialed the number.
One ring. Two rings. Three rings…
Hinata sighed as the fourth ring sounded. Only five rings before the answering machine picked up.
Click. "Heello?" his voice took her breath away.
"N-Naruto?" Hinata stuttered.
"Oh, hi, Hinata," he sighed.
"Hi. Um…I was just calling because…well…I don't know actually," she finished lamely. "I guess I was just thinking about you is all."
"Really? Where are you?"
"I'm at Sasuke's," she grimaced, but she wasn't going to lie.
"Sasuke's?" Naruto's voice was filled with anger and confusion.
"We had dinner together."
"Where is he now?" He sounded worried.
"Taking a shower."
There was a long pause. Hinata figured he was putting the pieces together. "Oh, I understand."
Hinata felt her throat clog up, "Naruto? I miss you."
There was another long pause. "I miss you, too. But right now isn't the best time to be talking about this. Sakura's in the other room. We were watching a movie."
Hinata felt tears welling up in her eyes, "I don't care where she is. I miss you so much. I mean, don't get me wrong, I really do appreciate Sasuke, but it's not the same as you."
"Hinata," Naruto said, "I know exactly how you feel. Could you do me one more favor before we go, cuz I don't want to mess anything up with you and Sasuke."
"Sure, what?" she asked.
"Say my name again. I love how you say it."
Hinata giggled, "I love you, Naruto," she whispered.
"Thank you, Hinata. Bye." Click.
The phone beeped as she pressed the off button. She laid it down on her nightstand and laid back. She reflected on her conversation. He still loved her.
