Hi guys. Hope you are enjoying this story so far. Things are going to get really interesting soon.
While I was washing the blood of off my face I began crying because with every stroke of the cloth on my face was agony. All the blood was finally of off my face, I went over to the mirror to see how bad the damage was this time. My eyes widened once I saw how my face had changed. Nearly my whole face was covered with deep purple bruises with little patches of white.
"How on earth am I going to hide this from naruto, not even my cover up will hide all of this, he can't find out, I deserve to get beaten because i'm a bad person and i do bad things but he won't understand and he will overreact if he finds out"
I left the bathroom, with every step I took my whole body ached more. I reached my bedroom door and slowly opened it. My feet dragged along my purple carpet as a headed for my bed. I sat down on my bed and then I blacked out from the intense pain.
Dream
I walked down the stairs to see a strange man with my mum and dad.
"Mummy?" She looked at me with fear in her eyes. She didnt answer so i looked to my dad
"Daddy?" he turned around to me and stared at me with the same eyes i had.
"Just go back to upstairs please" i heard the worry in his voice.
The strange man had a knife in his hand, he looked at me with cold eyes. He opened his mouth and i froze
"you're not going anywhere brat"
his voice shot through my body like cold ice blades. My dad turned back around to him
"leave her out of this John" he glared at him with cold eyes
"I'm going to take what you took from me"
I was still frozen in place, I saw the strange guy run at me with his knife pointing at me, my heart raced as he sped towards me i knew he was going to stab me so I closed my eyes waiting for the pain but it never came.
"Noooo, daddy!"
Tears came pouring out of my purple eyes, before the guy got to me my dad had jumped in front of me and got stabbed in the chest, the guy had realized what he had done and ran off. I saw blood oozing out of his chest as he turned around to face me. He put his hands on my shoulders.
"Hinata, my dear daughter don't you ever forget how much I love you and your mum, I want the both of you to live happy lives and make sure you look after your mother for me" I heard my mum cry in the background.
"Daddy, it sounds like you're saying goodbye, don't leave me" he touched my cheek with his hand and wiped my tears with his thumb.
"I have to go live with the angels now but daddy will always love you and mummy and if you ever miss me just find the brightest star and that will be me looking over you" he had tears running down his cheeks as his eyes slowly closed and he left me and mum alone in the harsh, cold world.
End of dream
My body flung up from the bed my whole body was covered with sweat and my cheeks felt wet, I had been crying through that dream. I never wanted to relive that horrid day when my father died right before my eyes, I was only about 7 when that dreadful day happened and I will never forget that mans face. He never got caught for murdering my dad but I swear if I ever see his face again I will kill him.
My body had taken quite a beating and I hurt all over, I didnt bother to get changed I just snuggled under my blanket and began to think of why I had gotten beaten today.
"Oh, now I remember it was because I acted sarcastically to neji, he absolutely hates sarcasm and specially to his favourite child, neji isn't even his son"
I eventually fell into sleep and had a peaceful dream. My eyes were heavy as I slowly opened them to search for my noisy alarm clock that disturbed my slumber. I turned it off and move my legs of off my bed and placed my feet on the floor. Even my feet hurt, I slowly made my way to my bathroom. Once I was in there I turned on the shower, got undressed and got in. The warm water soothed all my aches it's like they melted away with the water. My makeup was on the sink below the mirror so I made my way over to it. The makeup bag was mainly filled with cover up I picked up the thickest cover up I had and started to plaster it all over my face and neck. My cover up had actually manned to cover up all of my bruises on my face and neck.
The front door opened and I knew that neji was back home I quickly got changed, my body still ached but I've gotten used to ignoring it.
Neji smiled at me while I was coming down the stairs
"Morning hinata" he smiled at me and it made me feel happy
"Morning Neji" i smiled back
It even hurt to smile but i tried not to show the pain. My step dad was in his usual seat with the newspaper. He looked round to me with cold eyes i could almost feel cold daggers piercing my skin.
"hinata dear can you make me a coffee please?"
It always sent shivers down my spine when he talked to me nicely, but i knew it was only because neji was here.
"yes sir"
Oh crap i called him sir in front of neji but luckily he didnt think to much of it and sat down next to him. I made my way into the kitchen, it was quite warm so i decided to open the window. After i did that i opened the wooden cupboard i felt a slight breeze coming from the window and it relaxed me. The kettle began to boil as i was putting all the ingredients into the mug i heard the little switch click back up and i knew it was ready. My fingers wrapped around the handle i lifted it up and poured enough water into the mug. i walked over to the fridge and opened it and reached inside for the milk, it was cold to the touch but it helped sooth the pain in my hand. The cap fell to the surface as i unscrewed it i lifted the carton up and poured in enough milk. Once i had put everything back in its place i wrapped my fingers around the mugs handle and walked over to my step dad.
"here you go, hope its okay"
he looked at me with those same cold eyes and gave me an empty smile.
"Thanks sweetie" i smiled back at him and walked back upstairs to get my school bag ready.
The sun beamed down on me as i stood outside my house. My hair was up in a ponytail, i felt the wind gently hit my skin, it was such a lovely day i felt relaxed. I heard heavy footsteps coming closer towards me, my eyes gazed over in the direction they were coming from and i noticed my yellow haired friend running towards me. He stopped right in front of me and bent over with his hands on his knees breathing heavy.
"sorry i'm late hinata" he said while still panting
I smiled at him "Its okay naruto, but we better get going before we're late"
He smiled at me and agreed we walked a bit down the ray stoney path the sun the weather was so tranquil.
"hey hinata" i looked at him with my purple eyes, he seemed different
"yeah"
"ya know you shouldn't wear so much cover up, you look beautiful without it"
my eyes grew wide and my heart raced, did he really just call me beautiful, i felt my cheeks heat up, i knew that if i didnt have all this cover up on my face i would be bright red.
"t-thanks naruto" for the first time in ages i stuttered again.
Naruto's POV
Why do i feel like this, my heart won't stop racing when i'm with her, i'm always more nervous and my head is all over the place. I think i'm coming down with something.
"ya know you shouldn't wear so much cover up, you look beautiful without it" i felt my cheeks warm up as i told her what i thought. Come to think about it she never used to wear that much makeup, she looked so much nicer without it but she still looks lovely now.
Before i knew it we were already at school, time flew by so quickly when i'm with her. We collected all our stuff we needed for the day from our deep blue, metal lockers and walked down the packed hallway to our homeroom class. I sat in my usual seat and so did hinata, hinata seemed really off today so i decided to leave her alone during our homeroom session.
It was now lunch time and we all met at our usual space under the big tree at the end of the field, we all sat under the tree and we ate our lunch, hinata looked really tired but something else was wrong with her but i just couldn't figure it out. I got up and walked over to we're hinata was sitting.
"hinata can i speak with you please" she looked at me worried, she nodded and got up. We walked away from the others so that they couldn't see or hear us.
"Hinata what's wrong, i've noticed that you're not yourself today" she looked really worried when I said that and that's when I knew she was hiding something.
"I...im just tired thats all" she smiled but I saw through it. I grabbed her shoulders, she squeezed her eyes shut and she winced in pain.
"Hinata whats wrong" she knew I was worried becasue I saw it in her lilac eyes.
" Its nothing really" I needed to see what was wrong.
"If its nothing then take of your cardigan so I can see. She went really pale, even more than usual, and she looked so panicked and worried.
"I can't" I was getting annoyed now, my friend is hurting and she won't even let me help. I wrapped my arms around her and gently pulled her into an embrace. " I need to know whats wrong otherwise I wont be able to help, your my friend I dont want to see you hurt" before she could answer I pulled down her cardigan to revel her arms and sholders. My eyes widened at the sight her arms were covered with deep purple bruises and deep cuts her shoulders were the same shade of purple, she stood there in complete shock and then began to cry.
" Hinata..." she ran of crying before I could ask anything.
