Sorry guys, I got the chapters mixed up! xD
Whoops!
Thanks Yori-sama-1983 for saying something!
I'm so sorry it took me so long, my brother died and after that I kind of lost my passion for writing, I'm back now though. I am so sorry it took so long.
Sakura was finally home after working two shifts at the hospital, her co-worker was out on maternal leave and her and the other nurses had to pick p the slack until they could hire a temp. She peeled off her shoes at the front door and headed towards the kitchen for a snack, but before she could even that far a young boy around nine years old with white eyes grabbed her skirt and started to tug on it.
"Sakura-sama." He said in a cheerful voice, his eyes wide with wonder every time he saw her pink hair. "What is it Hiaru? Did you fall again?" she asked looking him over. Last time she had seen he had fallen and twisted his ankle and had come to sakura in tears asking her to heal him.
"No. Hiashi-sama wants to talk to yah." He said, as he grabbed her by the arm and dragged her into the garden, his chest puffed out, feeling so important. He was so proud that the leader of his clan had trusted him with such a big task. He was a big kid now.
"Easy there! Are you trying to rip my arm off?" demanded sakura as he yanked her around. How could this little kid be so freaking strong? Someone has been eating there vegetables! Jesus Christ! He grinned from one ear to another, as they reached the garden outside.
Sitting at a table under an umbrella sipping his tea, sat Hiashi Hyuuga. Even sitting down he was still taller than sakura and his whole demeanor screamed leader and dignity. "Thank you Hiaru." He said, rubbing the boy's head, before he sent him off, so that they could speak in private. Hiaru saluted him still grinning before he wandered off to find his mother.
Sakura took a seat across the table from him in the shade and took the cup of tea he had offered her. They sat there in silence, sakura not knowing what to say, sipped her tea. She had never been alone with him and was sweating bullets.
"What great tea." She said trying to get the conversation going."Hinata make it. She makes the best tea." Hiashi responded. He then set his cup down and then folded his hands underneath his chin and looked at her.
"Sakura, I have a confession; there was an ulterior motive to asking you to come here..." he confessed. Sakura got a sudden knot in her stomach. "Yeah, I figured." She confessed, taking another sip of her tea. Her leg was bouncing up and down, a nervous habit she had obtained during her child hood that she could never shake.
"Sakura, since you have been here your presence has been a miracle, one way or another your presence here has traumatically changed my house hold. You're like a light bulb, you light up our dingy dark home. You are not only a strong top notch shinobi trained by Tsunade-sama herself, but your healing skills are top notch as well. You have impressed me…which is no easy task." He complimented her.
"I do love living here. I feel so appreciated. Everyone has gone out of their way to make me feel welcomed here and at home." She confessed a grin on her face.
"You are melting the ice bergs in my home You are a great influence on hinata, hanabi and even neji himself…who even though it's oblivious to everyone but him, has taken an interest on you. When I asked him how he feels about you, he told me to mind my own fucking business and stormed off. Which is why I can tell he cares about you, if he didn't he wouldn't have stormed up like that, you affect him that much. A blind cow can tell he has feelings for you. " He said, making Sakura flush.
Sakura had no idea how to respond to that. She stared blankly off into space. How exactly did she feel about neji? She had never taken the time to think about that. Ever since Sasuke had broken her heart she was so reluctant to let anyone into her now fragile heart. She had wasted her whole life loving Sasuke; he was all she could ever think about. That was why she trained so hard day after day with Tsunade. She had to get stronger, her entire life she had been a burden and she couldn't stand the thought of holding the team back.
She had to find herself, what did she want in life? Not what other people wanted for her. She had spent her life letting people influence her decisions, it was about time she took a long a good soul searching look at her life…
"You are the only one who can reach him…I can tell you need some time to think things through. I'll give you your space." Hiashi said rising to his feet. He raising two girls by himself knew how complicated woman were and could read woman pretty good, it was written all over her face that she needed to be alone. He waved at her before he took his leave and started walking towards the main house.
"Damn…Neji better not fuck this up…" he grumbled to himself.
