----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Naruto kun..." shivered Hinata.
Light rain started to pour down.
Hinata sticked out her hand, droplets of water started to fill her cupped hand.
'naruto kun...'
(flashback)
Boom! Boom!
Lightning and thunder were crackling every 5 seconds.
Rain was heavily pouring down, you could barely see 7 feet ahead of you.
"I should've brought and umbrella..." Hinata whispered to herself, using her book bag as an umbrella.
Her clothes were soaking wet, and she would stop to cover her ears every time she saw blinding lights in the dark clouds.
Her home was still miles away, she missed the bus, and her otou san is too busy at work to come and pick her up... her cell phone was also dead.
"Kuso, why couldn't I remeber to charge my cell phone last nite?" cursed Hinata, stopping again.
Suddenly, she couldn't feel the raindrops.
She looked up and saw a lavender umbrella with with silver linings at the end.
"Here Hinata chan, you can have it" said Naruto, grinning sheepily.
"W-w-what about you, Naruto kun?" whispered Hinata, hanging her head down.
"Hm? Me? I'm ok Hinata chan, really! See i even have a rain coat on!"
Naruto tugged on his rain coat collar to prove that he really had it on.
"Now come on! Before you get a col-"
"ACHOO!" sneezed Hinata, rubbing her nose.
"Uh-oh.. too late" sighed Naruto.
"Here" Naruto handed her the umbrella, and Naruto started to reach something in his rain jacket.
Confused, Hinata standed firm, too shy to move a muscle.
"Ah hah! Here you go Hina chan!" Naruto gave her something black.
Hinata grabbed the cloth and found out that it was a jacket.
"Wear it Hinata chan, your gonna need it more than me!" smiled Naruto.
Suddenly thunder shrieked across the sky, and Hinata fell on her butt, dropping the umbrella and the jacket to cover her ears.
Tears were trickling down her cheeks.
"Are you ok, Hina chan?" Naruto asked bending down, so they were eye to eye.
"Come on. I'll walk you home. Don't forget to wear the jacket!"
Naruto wiped off the tear with his thumb.
"H-h-hai, N-N-naruto kun..."
HInata started to put on the jacket, but it was too big.
The sleeves covered her hand completely making it hard to hold the umberella.
"Here Hina chan, let me hold it for you..." Naruto grasped the handle, and went in under the umbrella with Hinata.
"N-Naruto k-kun... A-arigatou..." sniffled HInata, walking home the rest of the way, ignoring the lighitng and thunder...
(end of flashback)
Tears and rain were mixing.
Hinata's nose turned slightly pink from crying.
She clutched her heart, and wobbled down to the murky water.
Sogging her white school uniform.
"Naruto k-kun..." sniffled Hinata.
"Hinata chan! Where are you?" cried a distint voice.
'Sakura?'
"Hinata! Are you ok?" cried a 2nd voice.
'Tenten?'
Hinata quickly got up, and washed her eyes with her sleeves.
She can't allow her friends to carry her burden with them.
"I'm here Sakura chan! Tenten chan!" yelled Hinata, waving her arms so that her friends could see where she was.
Hinata strained to put a smile on her face.
The two girls rushed down to her.
"Hinata are you ok?" asked Sakura, holding the umbrella over Hinata's head.
"What happened to you? Your uniform is gray! Your nose is pink! So is your eye! Were... were you crying?" panicked Tenten.
"No, Tenten chan. Nothing like that. When I was walking, some truck was whizzing past me and splashed some dirty water on me. My nose is just pink from the cold, and i just got something in my eye, that's all" lied Hinata. She fought the urge to bite her fingernails, so she just clenched her fist.
"... Do you want us to walk you home Hina chan?" asked Sakura. As soon as she said 'Hina chan', Sakura slapped her hand over her mouth. But the deed was already done. Nobody had called Hinata 'hina chan' for 4 years.
Hinata smiled weakly and shooked her head no.
"I'd like to be alone for a while... Arigatou anyway Sakura chan" whispered Hinata.
"W-would you like an umbrella or a jacket?" asked Tenten.
Hinata didn't say anything for a while, but she still shooked her head no.
"I-i like the rain... Well, I have to go home... otou san is waiting for me..."
Hinata turned around, and started to walk.
"Sakura, do you think Hinata is alright?" Tenten asked, wrapping her hand around her arms.
"No... But it will only make things worser for Hinata if we butt in..." Sakura sighed, watching Hinata turning smaller and smaller until she was gone from their sight.
"I hope Hinata will feel better..." muttered Tenten, before she walked the other way.
"Yea..."
Sakura joined Tenten, and walked toward their houses.
