CHAPTER 4

Ok, here…I don't know what to write…-brain dead-

No Uchiha Massacre, that's why they're all alive.

"small flashback"

"Gaara's words"

'thoughts'

And again, a lot of flashbacks and present life as Sasuke's wife. I guess I'll put in parenthesis at end of the past and present. You should be able to tell cuz I got the page break stuff too.

Also, i tried to skip a line when there's like a little break thing, but it didn't work so i put extra POV and stuffs. Hope you guys don't find it too confusing.

Enjoy, review, comment, complain…etc.

Hinata followed the maid to the center of the house where the elders live.

Hinata nodded to the maid and sat old Japanese style by the door. She bowed.

"Uchiha Hinata welcome to the Uchiha household."

'Must be the oldest man speaking'

(present)

(past)

"Good morning Temari-san and Kankuro-san," Hinata greeted with quite delight.

"Morning." "Hey."

"Hinata, can you turn in Gaara's homework for us? We're kinda busy," Kankuro handed her a black folder with a red heart at the top right.

"Sure, I'll see you guys at break then," She walked toward her mid morning class.

"Kankuro, let's go," Temari walked ahead to the sophomore section of the school.

(This part is in Kankuro's POV because he's the one telling Gaara of what's happening.)

"Hey, Marshpillow!"

"What do you want, dummy?" Neji gave me cold eyes.

"What kind of name is that?" I had to ask.

"I was thinking about pillow made of marshmallows," he lowered his voice, "what are you two doing here anyway?"

"Hinata. What happened? What kind of trouble did she get into?" Anyone can tell it's either you give her a good answer or die under the biggest fan ever.

Neji sighed, "come with me."

We went to an unpopulated area of the sophomore section.

"She was spanked," Neji wasn't looking at us in the eyes.

"What the--" I started.

"Why?" Temari seemed to know almost why, "what did she do wrong?"

"She didn't call that she'd be home late," he looked in Temari's eyes, "it's not that I don't trust you, just call home next time. I hate seeing her hurt."

"I understand," Temari did all the talking this time.

"Can we take her home? Tonight?" I had to ask. I know Gaara would be concerned too.

"Yes, just make sure to call home and I'll mention it to Hiyashi," Neji turned and left.

-Gaara POV-

(Back to Kankuro's room)

"Are you gonna say anything, bro?" Kankuro broke the long pause after the story.

No, nothing I said and I just left his room.

"You should clean up your room," earlier today he told me to clean my room.

"Stick it up your's!" I heard him saying.

-Temari POV-

"Hinata," I knocked on the bathroom door hearing that she's done showering.

"Oh, hold on!" There seems to be an earthquake in there, rumblings and shuffling were heard.

"Hina-chan, I know what's happened," I know she heard me. Shuffling sounds stopped.

"Temari-san," she opened the door. I couldn't believe it's her body under the bath towel.

"I--I didn't want--want anyone to know…" Hinata sobbed like never before. Not like any girl I've seen before. She did not even cry at the school when she was bullied for standing up for Gaara as I last recall.

"Come, I'll help you."

She simply sobbed and nodded.

-GaaraPOV-

"Kankuro, get me more bandages," Temari yelled toward the door.

Knockings came.

"Open the door," she called back.

He walked in.

'Hinata.'

Hinata cutely gasped.

"Ga--Gaara," she quickly pulled a jacket over her bandaged chest embarrassed in shame. The bruises weren't all new. Even an amateur can tell some were fresh.

"Gaara, get out," Temari threw her pillow at me.

I threw the bandages at her and quickly shield the flying pillow with the door.

"So, Gaara. What do you think?" Kankuro seemed to know what happened in Temari's room.

"…" I looked away. 'What can I do?'

"Don't you know why she's doing this?

"No, I don't."

"You should know."

I shot my head up upon hearing him.

'Wow, a new expression of Gaara.'

"She…why?" I didn't know. And I need to know. No, I have to know.

"Why would anyone go through all these events that no one would bother doing," he started, "if… there's nothing in between you two?"

"…" I had to think. This could very well be a trick question, "we only have friendship between us."

"Friendship? Is that really it?"

'Why's he questioning me?'

"Are you sure there's nothing more than just friendship lying between you and Hina-chan?"

Again with his tricky questions.

"I…"Is there anything else? "I don't know."

"Think about it. No special things going on?"

I couldn't possibly answer.

"If you think she's too good for you, you-are-damn-right," he spoke the last part individually.

Of course she is. Everyone should know she's too good for me.

"Not because of anything else but because she's showing you how she feels," he walked downstairs, "I'm getting some juice, all those work out made me thirsty. You want anything?"

I said nothing, no reply and went back to my room.

There was two knocks on my bedroom door.

"What, Temari?" only she knocks twice.

"Hey little bro," she poked her head in, "how's your homework coming?"

"Where's Hinata?" I couldn't care less about homework, especially since Hinata's hurt.

"She's with Kankuro in his room."

I jumped out of my room, swiftly I walked down the hall and arrived at the door of Kankuro's room.

Giggles and laughs I heard. From Kankuro and Hinata. For a second or minute I lack the courage to open the door. I wondered if I'd find Hinata being raped by Kankuro or if Hinata was enjoying being hit on by my own brother.

No, I'm Sabaku no Gaara. I shouldn't fear. But then again…

"Kankuro," I walked in. I had to see what's going on myself. With my own eyes.

"Gaara-kun." "Hey bro."

Them two sitting close on Kankuro's bed. Hinata wore a one piece light pinkish purple spaghetti strap nightgown down to her thighs. Luckily, she also had a light piece of blanket around her shoulders.

Kankuro on the other hand, is just wearing some boxer and a tanktop.

"So, what do you think?" Kankuro acted as if I turned invisible.

"I think it's cute," Hinata giggled and blushed for some reason.

Were they thinking about something perverted? Was it something I wasn't or shouldn't be informed about?

"Let's go eat. I'm hungry again," Kankuro helped Hinata up by her shoulders. And walked toward the door behind her.

(still past)

Well, how do you guys like the story so far? I didn't intend to make everything complicated if I did. I tried to make it clear as possible.

Again I am going through shitty conflicts of what should've been a pretty nice life. I'll just continue and upload as soon as possible.
