-Three-

Hinata groaned and felt the urge to hit her head against the wall. How did she get into this mess? She glanced around herself, she was in a crystal clean bathroom; it was Sakura's. This just happened to be her second time in here, her first time being the day prior to this. She was shoved into the room earlier by the pinkette and Rock Lee with some new clothes and ordered to shower and change as fast as possible. Apparently as of yesterday, she had joined the family and was considered one of Sakura's personal bodyguards.

-Flashback/Yesterday evening-

"My home is just around the corner, Ryuu-kun!" Sakura giggled, dragging the protesting Hinata along with her. "This is so exciting! Nothing ever happens around here!"

"E-eh? Sakura-san, I don't think that I should b-be going to your house!" The Hyuuga sputtered. If she were a female, it wouldn't have been allowed at all! She was pretty sure that even thinking it was not allowed!

The pinkette stopped in her gait and half-turned to stare at her for a few short moments before bursting out laughing. "Ryuu-kun, don't be so last century! Besides, it isn't as if it would only be the two of us. Some of the people on staff live with us and so do our bodyguards. It's like one huge family at my house!"

"B-But-!" She sputtered.

"I won't take no for an answer anymore, is that clear?" She interrupted the slightly taller teen, once again grabbing her hand and purposefully moving forward. From the back, it seemed as if Sakura was being a determined, straight forward minded girl, yet in reality, the pinkette was trying not to squeal in delight for she was holding such a cute boy's hand.

This will be so weird! What do I do if they find out that I'm a girl? Will I get kicked out again? I can't handle it if they do! Hinata reached out, her hand landing on the other girl's shoulder. "Sakura-san-." She said firmly, only to be interrupted by a loud, war-like cry.

"So it was YOU who kidnapped Sakura-sama!" All of a sudden, a blur of green and black flashed in front of Hinata. "That is something that I will not stand for!"

"Lee! IIE!" Sakura screamed from her spot off to the side. She had released Hinata and dove for cover for whatever it was that was heading their way.

A clothed fist came flying towards her face and due to quick reflexes and years of training, she managed to duck down just in time to dodge and counter with her clan's specialty, the gentle fist. She thrust her open palm into the guy's stomach, holding back just a little. The teen flew back and crashed into the wall. Hinata's hand flew to her mouth, an apology on the tip of her tongue. However she paused when he began to sit up; the boy shouldn't have even be conscious after that attack! It damaged the internal stuff, and it should've been too painful to even think about moving! He jumped to his feet and dusted off his green leotard—erm… Suit and glanced down at Hinata. Her eyebrows flew when she caught sight of his own. He sure does have thick eyebrows. She noted.

"You take me by surprise stranger. Your scrawny yet lean body does not even hint at the idea of you knowing anything about martial arts, yet you supplied such a powerful attack like that. Do not go getting a big head though, for it will not happen again!" He went back into his battle stance, his circular eyes locked onto hers.

He talks in a very proper manner. She thought, not bothering to move into her battle stance yet keeping her guard up. He looks like he's ready to go again.

"Lee-kun, he isn't a kidnapper!" The pinkette cried from behind a pole, only for her cries to fall on deaf ears.

"Leaf hurricane!" The teen obviously named Lee swooped in with a low kick, which Hinata easily jumped over, then a high kick, aiming straight at her face. Years of discipline taught her to dodge at the last second so that the enemy wouldn't be able to change the direction of their attack, so she did. She jerked her head to the side, then her hands shot up to grasp his leg and she tossed him over her shoulder.

He was good, but he had nothing on Neji. She wasn't as good as her cousin was, but she was better than most after being forced to spar with the elder Hyuuga everyday for three hours since she was six.

"Gah!" He went flying and ran into a pole, crumbling to the ground with a deep groan.

"Ah! Gomen!" Hinata ran over to the boy's side and helped him to sit up. Her brows pinched down when she noticed that his eyes were shut. I guess that I was a little too harsh with him. I forget that not everyone is as good as Neji-niisan. She checked the boy for any permanent damage, and apart from a few scrapes, bruises, and a minor concussion he was completely fine.

Sakura was by her side almost immediately, her emerald eyes wide with worry and wonder. "Ryuu-kun, where did you learn to fight like that? I thought that you were the heir to your clan's company like I am!"

"I w-was." She grimaced when she heard her own stutter. She was supposed to be a man! Men do not stutter! "My otou-san believed that we shouldn't rely on strangers to help us when i-it is within our power to help ourselves. I've been studying my clan's martial arts s-style since I was five. I began to spar when I turned six." Her eyes rose to meet the pinkette's "I may not look l-like it, but I'm a second degree black belt."

Sakura's mouth dropped open and was fixing to reply, but was cut off by a loud exclamation. "LEE!" The whole ground seemed to tremble and shake as the screaming person came closer.

Hinata climbed to her feet and angled her body to the right, in the direction that the voice seemed to be coming from. Her lavender orbs widened when she spotted an older version of the unconscious bodyguard barreling towards them with tears spraying out of the corners of his eyes. His eyebrows were bigger than the teen's! "LEE!" He came to a stop before them and scooped the teen up, staring up at the moon with a heart wrenching gaze. "WHY?" Sakura's eyebrow twitched with barely veiled irritation and Hinata had a sweat drop on the back of her head.

"Calm yourself Gai. Lee is merely unconscious." A man with incredibly bright red hair stepped forward out of the shadows. He wore a business suit and had emerald eyes identical to Sakura's (A/N: I've never seen an actual colored picture of him, so I'm just guessing with the eye-color here. Sorry if I got it wrong!); they were locked on the Hyuuga. "Those were some pretty fancy moves there, son. Who are you?"

"M-my name is Ryuu, sir." She felt the need to hide from his intense gaze, and of course, there was nothing in sight that she could use as a shield. This man was incredibly intimidating, and she didn't even have a full conversation with him yet!

"Tou-chan, leave Ryuu-kun alone. Stop trying to interrogate him. He's here because I invited him to stay. He has nowhere else to go." Sakura walked over to the tall man and entwined his arm with her own. She sent Hinata a small apologetic smile.

"Hmph." The man's head lifted a notch. "I am Sasori…" He moved to turn away, but Sakura had a death grip on his arm it seemed and he reluctantly turned back to her. "…You will be permitted to stay in my home if and only if you meet two of my conditions."

Hinata gulped and tried to keep her cool. "S-state them."

"The first is that you become one of my daughter's bodyguards. As I said, I've just witnessed your moves, and you are exceptional at martial arts. My daughter is an heiress to my company and is often targeted by dangerously greedy people. You are to protect her at all times. Do you agree to this?"

"…Hai." This is probably the only option I have anyways. There is no way that I can return home, and Sakura-san is a good person from what I can tell, so I know that she isn't a snob…This will be easy.

"Good. The second condition is very important, so listen up." The young looking adult paused for several seconds then smirked. "I don't know if you've seen yourself lately, but you're quite filthy. You need a shower."

"?" The Hyuuga flushed and reached up to touch her short hair in attempts to hide her embarrassment. Earlier, when she was moving over to pick Sakura up, she had tripped over a root that she hadn't seen and landed in a small puddle of mud… So she was dirty! Who cared? "I-I agree."

"Good. You can use Sakura's bathroom. She'll show you the way." Sasori then untangled his daughter's arm from his and moved over to the two other men in green and began to scold the older one for acting so foolishly.

Sakura once again grabbed his arm. "Come on Ryuu-kun, time to clean you up!"

-Flashback/End-

Hinata stepped out of the shower and quickly dried herself off. What an unusual situation I'm in right now…She thought, tying some cloth around her assets with some of Lee's gauze tape that he used for his hands. She only took a few strands, he wouldn't be missing them, after all, he had PLENTY. Once she was sure that she had a flat chest, she pulled on a black shirt, grey skinny jeans and socks, and finally her combat boots. She stared down at them with a sigh. The family had given her a whole bunch of new clothes, yet her combat boots, which were the only things that fit her WAY too big, were the only articles that weren't replaced. Of course.

A knock sounded on the door, startling the girl from her thoughts. "Ryuu-kun? Are you almost done?" A female asked tentively from the other side.

"A-Ah!" She quickly moved to the door and pulled it open, revealing Sakura who was wearing a dark red blouse with black trimmings and an ebony ribbon tied into the shirt. A plain black skirt rose several inches above her knees and she was wearing some black, furry looking boots that stopped at the tops of her calves. "I'm done Sakura-sama."

Almost immediately the pinkette's nose scrunched up in that of disgust. "Oh please don't start calling me that, Ryuu-kun!"

Hinata fully stepped out of the bathroom and scratched the back of her head. "B-but Lee calls you that… And so do many other people in your house…"

She rolled her eyes and waved the comment off. "Lee-kun isn't average just in case you haven't noticed. I mean, come on, he uses 'sama' when talking to the chef! And everyone else is just too afraid to use 'chan' when referring to me because of my tou-chan."

"O-oh…" If Hinata were wearing a tie, she would've been loosening it right about then. Her new charge could be very intimidating when she wanted to, it seemed. She must've gotten it from Sasori. "T-then how about Sakura-san?"

The shorter teen crossed her arms over her chest and glared. "Just how old do I look to you?" Her eyes were practically glowing by now, and she didn't seem to be one who would give up on what she wanted to accomplish easily.

"But I can't u-use 'chan'! It's too familiar, a-and I've only known you for a few hours!"

"Hmph! No one cares about those types of things anymore!" Sakura locked onto Hinata's eyes and held them there with determination. "Now say it, Ryuu-kun!"

"I-I don't know…"

"SAY IT!"

"S-S-S-Sakura-c-c-chan!" Hinata fell to the ground, as if just saying it wore her down. She was breathing hard and had a very obvious blush on her cheeks as she averted her gaze from the Haruno heiress with a pout.

"Gah!" Sakura cried, before collapsing herself.

Hinata turned to see what the commotion was and her lavender orbs widened on the sight next to her. Sakura was passed out it seemed, with blood dripping from her nose and drool spilling from her wide, smiling lips. "Sakura-chan, are you alright?"

The other teen seemed to be dead however, muttering something like, "How kawaii…" Before rolling over on her side and once again went quiet.

Hinata shook her head. She just didn't understand normal girls.

-Break-

Hinata's right eye twitched. "Lee… What are you doing?"

"HAHAHA! What a silly question, Ryuu! I am protecting Sakura-sama!" The thick eyebrowed teen replied. He wore some flashy lime green skinny jeans and a green and black striped shirt. He definitely looked unusual compared to Sakura and herself.

"I understand that, b-but…" Her eyebrow twitched a couple of times once again.

"But what?"

"Why are y-you practically glued to my side? In case you haven't noticed, I am N-NOT Sakura-chan!" She untangled Lee's arm from hers and pushed him across the seat before sliding on the opposite side of Sakura.

They were currently in a limousine, and were headed to the movie theatre. This would be her first time to such a place, and as such, she was a little antsy, but when Lee had sat down so close to her that she could feel the outline of him; that had been what threw her off the edge.

"Ah, so I see that you have noticed." He flashed a blindingly bright grin and gave her a thumbs up. "It is because I have decided that you are my rival! I cannot allow you to engage anyone else in battle or they too will see you as I do! I will not stand for that!"

"Lee-kun, leave Ryuu-kun alone." Sakura smiled softly. This was perfect. Not once since Ryuu came along did she think of Sasu-. Iie! She shook her head rapidly with a blush. He doesn't like me… He rejected me! It's time to move on…

"So what is it that you wish to watch, Sakura-sama?" Lee asked. "How about a Bruce Lee film, YOSH!" He began to jab at the air. "He is the best and I aspire to be like him one day!"

"But Lee, we watched one last week! Let's watch something else for a change! How about a comedy?" She offered.

"What an excellent idea Sakura-sama! I too could use a good laugh. Bruce Lee-sama can wait for another week, ne Ryuu?"

Hinata blinked at him blankly. "Who is Bruce Lee?"

-Break-

"Ryuu-kun, come sit next to me!" The familiar high pitched voice caused Uzumaki Naruto's ears to perk up. His bright blue eyes scanned the length of the auditorium, smiling brightly when they landed on familiar pink hair.

"Oi, Sasuke! Look down there!" He exclaimed, pointing down about five rows. "Sakura-chan is sitting there with Lee and-… Hey, who is that guy?"

Uchiha Sasuke didn't bother to look down; instead he glanced over to his best friend and scowled. "Pipe down, dobe. The movie's about to start."

"But I want to go sit with Sakura-chan too!" He whined before giving the dark haired teen the puppy eyes.

"I'm not moving." He stated firmly.

"Hmph. Then watch the movie by yourself, I'm going down there!" The foxlike teen grabbed his bucket of extra buttered popcorn and stood, walking down to where Sakura sat with Rock Lee and the unknown male.

The Uchiha remained stubbornly rooted in place. That was until he noticed how every female within a twelve feet radius was staring at him hungrily with their beady eyes flashing dangerously. He quickly jumped to his feet and made his way over to the stairs. Dealing with Sakura, Naruto, and Lee was much more preferable to dealing with rabid fangirls.

-Break-

"Naruto! What a coincidence! Please, sit next to me." Lee moved his jacket out of the seat next to him for the blonde to sit in between the unknown male and himself.

Well, if you didn't know Uzumaki Naruto, he corrected it quickly. "Hello there! I'm Naruto, a friend of Sakura-chan's and Lee's. Nice to meet you!"

"Ah, h-hello there. I'm Ryuu." The teen smiled a dimpled smile that caught the young man off guard.

He stared at the indigo haired teen. He had looks that could rival Sasuke's, but there was a definite difference between the two. He couldn't put his finger on it though…

"Naruto-kun, stop staring at Ryuu-kun! You're making him uncomfortable!" Sakura reached over and slammed her fist across the whiskered boy's face before turning to the Hyuuga, who was covering his face with a incredibly red blush and grabbing his hand, simply holding it. Sakura knew what he had to be going through. He had been locked up in his house for most of his life with only limited interaction with people other than her family. When they had first entered the movie theatre, she had to hold onto his hand so that he wouldn't faint at the large amount of people (women) that were staring at him. Secretly, she didn't mind…

"Oi, move over Lee, I'm not sitting at the end." A deep voice pulled Sakura from her thoughts." Her eyes were itching to lift, to see the face of the boy that she had loved for so long, but found that she didn't have the strength. Her hold on the boy next to her tightened.

"Alright Sasuke! But first, you must meet my rival, his name is Ryuu!"

Hinata studied her pink haired friend before turning to the person that she heard earlier. "Hello." The boy was attractive, it was true, but due to the tightening of the hands holding her own, she wasn't able to be intimidated. She turned back to Sakura. "Sakura-chan, are you alright?"

The emerald eyed teen stayed as she was earlier for a few seconds longer before blinking twice and looking up. "Hai…"

The group sat in silence for a while, and surprisingly, it was Sasuke who broke the silence. "So, does anyone want to explain why that girl is dressed up like a guy?"
