The Devil's Violin

Chapter 4 What Leather and Liquor Can Do

---

Hinata POV

I slid my hand on the leather seat, letting my fingertips take in every stich and crack. I've always loved leather! Everything about it just brings a warm feeling in my chest, the cold softness, the smell, everything just calms me. It just wraps me in a blanket of nothing but the purest ecstasy. I let a small "hmm" escape my throat as the sensation took over. The feeling, the ache that can only be met by actions created by the devil himself. I've never told anyone this but if there was ever a night when I lay, tossing and turning, just not able to escape the burning passion between my legs, I rest my head on a leather purse my aunt brought me from Italy. It makes the sense of pleasure I feel, about twice as strong, it still didn't compare to the real thing, but that purse and my hand is all I have for now. I've even been known for stealing away into Neji's bedroom and take his fancy leather belt every now and then. The things I'm able to do and feel with that belt, just brings a fire in my belly and a blush to my cheeks. But I can't keep this up for very long, not only will I not be able to control myself but the boy next to me might see my true intentions, so I reluctantly remove my hand from the material and brought it to the mirror in front of me, adjusting it.

"You look fine. Trust me." His compliment didn't stop me from removing a small hair brush from my purse and bring it through my silky mane for the tenth time that night. "They won't be able to keep their eyes off you." I could hear the smile in his voice and I turned to give him a face.

"That isn't always a good thing…" I mumbled as he shrugged and turn up the volume on the bass,

"Better than the looks I get…" I suppose he was right; I realized we both want the same thing tonight, for someone to just wrap their arms around us and not let go until some commandments were broken. "Just stop fixing something that isn't ruined and help me look for the turn!" I looked back at my reflection, making mental note of every imperfection, cursing myself for not getting ready sooner. It wasn't until I could almost feel his glare that I finally put the brush back in my purse, and flipped the mirror up. I had actually forgotten all about the senior bonfire until Shino brought it up the day before.

"You wanna ride?" He asked me, "Just got a new Cd!" It was hard but I was actually able to plaster on a smile through my gritted teeth.

"Sure" I said, "Love one…" He winked at me and walked away as my smile dropped to a grimace. I hate driving with him… Is he a bad driver? No. Does he drive a shitty car? No. Hell it's nicer than mine. No, the problem is he can't go a single car ride without putting on some weird ass music! I understand wanting the radio, I blast mine until the car shakes but his just "beeps" and "boops" at you until a so called singer whispers a random word with his lips pressed right against the microphone. It's kinda like,

Ohhh, beep beep bo boop be beep beep beep bo boop….Water fountain….beep beep boop Ohhh boop bo beep beep bo boop boobee…Ice fishing…boo boo beepepbep beeeeeeeeeeep!

Ok I am exaggerating quite a bit, but it is still weird as fuck! Whenever he puts it on, I just kinda nod my head to what I think the beat it and hope he believe that I'm listening. Nine times out of ten, he asks me what I think and I have to straight out lie. "Ohh yeah, it was cool, who does this?" Then he would tell me the name of an artist I never heard of, I would tell him I would check it out, then it is on to the next song. I thinks if he asked me to marry him I would say yes in a heartbeat if only it wasn't for his taste in music! We are great when it comes to clothes, movies of course, we don't pay attention to politics, but when it comes to music…ARG! We are great together! In fact many are taken off guard when they find out that we aren't dating. Well there is a little problem with that… Shino is gay. Yepp, he is 100 percent, no doubts, watching weird porn gay. He isn't one of those in your face kind of gay guys, oh no, no he is a hipster gay, the kind that wears nerdy t-shirts and you wouldn't be able to tell if he was or not. Well he in fact is and I think that is a reason why I love him so much, I don't need to worry about embarrassing myself around him. He is just a nothing guy, no romantic strings attached, none at all. Are there days where I wish things were different? Of course! Like I already said we would be amazing together, but every girl needs that one guy that she could just…expose herself to, and my guy is Shino.

Some people think since I'm a Catholic I automatically hate gays, well I don't! I love gay guys! They are always funny and nice and great to guy watch with. Whenever we go out we play a game where if we both find the same guy attractive we follow him for a little bit to see which side of the fence he leans. Some are obvious but I remember this one guy we trailed for almost an hour and we still don't really know. So like I said I love gay guys but I don't really know about girls... I've never actually met a lesbian before. But I'm sure they are no different from any other girl so I suppose it is a possibility that I might find them fun…I DON'T CARE THAT THEY ARE GAY! NO! It's just…they're…girls…I don't really get along with too many girls… Of course I have girl friends, I love TenTen and Sakura and Ino but other than them…not to many girls are lining up to be my buddy. Ok. Girls don't like me. Plain and simple.

I don't really know when I found this out but I have learned to come to terms with it. I am not liked by females. Sakura told me that they were just jealous of my body. I guess I could see it, I mean, I have caught both Sakura and TenTen staring at my chest before but… I never really thought anything of it. Last year I actually made a chart of reasons why girls don't like me and why I don't like girls. I couldn't think of to many things for why they hate me. I think the only things on there were: Jealous of body, too shy, religious. But I made a HUGE list for why I don't like them. Cranky, snotty, pompous, stupid, superficial, obsessive, loud, judgmental, the list goes on and on…Huh…I guess it really says something about me…I was able to come up with all these reasons why I don't like other people but only three or four for why other people might not like me…Huh…I'll pray on it later…

ANYWAY

He drove us through pitch black woods, bumping and lurching the whole way. He grunted and moaned as he desperately looking for any sign of life.

"Are you sure we are on the right path?" Shino removed his sunglasses and squinted as he scanned tree after tree.

"This was the only thing even remotely close to a path; I think we just need to keep looking…" He trailed off as his focused returned to his search. We inched our way through the dens trees as we rumbled and rocked. One rather fierce jump made me airborne, catching me with the seat belt and threw me back down, hitting the top of my head on the ceiling in the process. I cursed, grasping my head with my hands and brought it down to my knees.

"The think the directions you got were shit!" I said, a little muffled. He quickly grabbed the crumpled up paper on the dashboard, flicked a button, and the car flooding with light.

"I got these from Choji… he said they were golden." I did my nastiest glare but he sure as hell wasn't paying me any attention so I just rolled my eyes and looked out the window.

What a waste of time, it will take forever to find our way out…Shino must have reread the directions twenty times before he finally turned off that damn light. Just as our vision of the tress expanded, something pulled my gaze. "Look!" he slammed on the brakes, making me almost choke on my now locked seat belt, and hurriedly glanced in the direction I was pointing, sure enough, just a few feet ahead of us was a tree with a tiny red reflector on it.

"YES!" He pounded the pedal to the floor and we soared in our desired direction. He spun his wheels, whipping us all around until we stared our way down a path paved with little red reflectors. After a few more turns and knocks we were met by a glowing gold flicker in the distance. "Fuck yeah!" He yelled as he forced the gas pedal all the way down to the floor. "Tonight we fucking live!"

Naruto POV

Why did I even come? I am so awkward here…I thought if I stood near the kegs I would be able to cox a few girls in to drinking a little more than they can handle, but so far all I've gotten is guys, drunk off their asses, fall into me and vomit. So now I am just sitting on a log, by myself, with waves of smoke blast into my face and irritate my eyes. Great choice Naruto, you really did good…I sipped slowly at the plastic cup in my hand. The cheap liquor burned my throat and tasted like piss but it was giving me the buzz I was looking for so I guess it was worth it. I sipped and sipped until nothing was left, I hit the bottom of the cup…

Well…There goes that…I gazed at the empty container, playing with the drops of liquid that formed in the corners. I wasn't drunk, not even close, the only thing it did was bring a small tickle sensation to the back of my skull. The drink was the only thing tying me to this little shindig and now it was gone…I stood, cracked my back, and before I took one step, a rough hand slammed into my shoulder, almost knocking me down again.

"HEY! You made it! Glad to see ya'." I whipped around, arms up, fists clenched, ready for a fight, and clumsily stumbled backwards when I became face to face with a grinning Kiba. "Whoa Man! Where the fire? It's all good. Here!" He extended his arm and offers me a plastic cup filled to the brim with the foamy liquid. I looked at the cup skeptically "What the fuck man? It is just a beer, take it!" I glanced at him, down at the cup, and back at him before I accepted his gift. "Where the hell have you been? I've already got Ino on drink number three… and it looks like four will be my lucky number!" he said through his teeth and he pointed in the direction of the keg. There a stood a bleach blonde with nice slender body and legs that went on forever. Her tight dress hugged her body and stopped just at the end of her butt. With her hair all in rats, makeup slightly smudged, and body half draped on the keg, it looked like Kiba had hit the gold mine. "Yeah.." He continued, "She's so tall and skinny, you can get her in your arms after beer two, but I thought I should play it safe with three." I nodded, half listening. I wonder if Kiba could…

"Hey man…" These were the first words came out of my mouth since I've stepped foot into these words, and they ended up sounding like a low croak. Oh well! This has been on my mind ever since I stepped foot into the school. "So you seem to have everything figured out with these girls…" and just like that, information flooded out of him.

"Hell yeah! I know every inch of these ladies; I know exactly what they need!" He scanned around the large clearing, "There! Look!" He gestured to a tiny girl with long brown hair, with her back pressed against a thick tree, keeping to herself. "That's Ayame, she may not look like much but she will do WHATEVER you want, plus her dad is so entangled with his restaurant chain, all she needs is a little attention … That's Moegi she's just a freshman but I heard she is pretty eager to learn." This girl wasn't bad, an option at least, she just needs to lose the baby fat in her face and let her boobs grow in and she might be pretty good looking. "Hehe…" Kiba gave a low chuckle and shook his head as he pointed to a red headed girl with a tiny frame and an even tinier skirt. "Hehe…THAT'S Karin…She is SO desperate, all you need is a complement and she's as good as yours." That's how the night went one, as Ino helped herself to the keg, Kiba and I sat down and compared notes on anything in a skirt. Well…he mostly talked and I listened, but I gained some very useful information. It was a pretty nice set up, everything was going great! All until one girl caught my eye,

Oh for shit's sake! I thought, anyone but her! It was the girl with the long raven hair, the one I met on my first day. She was walking arm and arm with a wiry guy who wore a pair of dumbass sunglasses. I watched in horror as they whispered things into each other's ears and sat on the log, just on the other side of the fire. Any other party, on any other night, why did they have to come? I wasn't even listening to Kiba now, all of my attention on that girl, her and only her. She didn't see me yet, her eyes were just darting to the kegs, her friend and back again. She mumbled something to him and I swear to God I could see the smug bastard roll his eyes behind his black glasses. Wow I hated him, even when I saw his face this morning, I knew I hated him.

It was just after fifth period; bodies pushed and shoved each other as they raced to the cafeteria. I just stood against my locker and let all the preps and jocks pass, even when their bodies' slam in to mine I just give them a glare and walk away. Why the hell should I waste my time with them? It isn't because they scare me, it's simply because they annoy me…so I just let them go. I wander the empty hall kicking random pencils and papers that someone had left behind. Something about an empty hallway…I don't really know how to explain it. It makes me feel lonely but also kinda…happy. It always makes me hum this little song in my head and it makes me really appreciate the time I do have alone. Yeah I get it, it sounds crazy but fuck it! It was what helped me get through the day. I turned corner and just as I was about to enter the noisy cafeteria something caught my attention. I stood as still as a stone waiting for it to happen again. It was faint, and low, but it was there. I kept my stance, ears perked, for another minute, gave up, and made another step toward the student filled lounge. There it was again! What the hell was that? I ignored the ache of my stomach and began to walked slowly, cautiously down one hall and up another. I decided it was louder down Senior hall so I moved my body in that direction then froze. What the fuck am I doing? I could be eating right now! I could be hustling some poor kid for his money, eating in the corner alone, glaring at those who dare catch my eye. Yepp! Just sitting…by myself…again…I don't get it. I could rule the school! Everyone here is already afraid of me and I haven't even done anything but the thought of eating my lunch at an empty table. It made me sick to my stomach…WELL! My hunger is gone so I might as well keep searching.

I took baby steps down Senior hall as the sound became more apparent. It wasn't just any old noise, it was notes, music, muffled yet definite music. But where-My jaw dropped as my palm slapped my forehead. The fucking band room, are you kidding me? I mean how stupid could I be? My locker is literally right across the hall from it. If I outstretched my arm I could probably tock my lock and the door handle at the same time. Why didn't I fucking think of this sooner? Came this far, might as well see the source for myself. I made my way to the door and peered in through the small window towards the top of the door. Couldn't see shit so I grabbed the metal knob and turned it as gently as possible. I opened it just enough and I slipped inside. The room was pretty big, instrument cases and stands covered the area and any open counter space was filled with music but the atmosphere just said… "relaxed". Once I was in my eyes fell upon two people. One was on his back just laying on the floor and the other, even though she was faced the other way, was most definitely the girl I met on my first day. The bitch that stared at me, the one who pissed me off, the one who smelled like vanilla...what the hell was she doing? She was sitting on a chair and had herself all bent over fumbling with something just out of my vision. The guy on the floor was someone I never met before but found myself gritting my teeth at him. What was wrong with me? I didn't even know the guy and yet I had an overwhelming urge to punch him in the face. Just as an image of him hitting the floor popped into my head he spoke.

"COME ON! I'm starving! You don't need to practice anymore you sound great!"

"No." She spoke. It was soft. It was gentle but there was a persistence behind it. "I think I just about have it." The guy on the floor groaned.

"How long have you been working on this… What is it? The "Bee song"."

"It's "Flight of The Bumblebee"… and about five months." He tossed his arms up.

"Well it shows! You sound amazing so why let ourselves starve? Let's just eat!" She didn't answer just kept fumbling with whatever was on the ground. I was so close to yelling

"Hey just shut up! She can do whatever she wants!" but I held my tongue. The guy on the floor groaned once more.

"Look how about you play one more time then you pack up and we go to lunch? We can come back after final bell." She didn't say anything for a second, she just let the compromise sink in.

"Deal." She said simply and finally straightened her back and I finally saw what she had been messing with. The fuck?...She brought the object to her shoulder and rested her chin on a small section of it. "Ready?" The guy brought his arm up to his face and peered at his watch.

"Yeah….3. 2. 1 go!" From the moment she touched the bow to the violin something, I don't what, happened inside me. My chest felt warm and a fuzzy feeling came to my stomach I mean…holy shit! The girl was amazing! Her fingers were nothing more than a blur but every note seemed to carry feeling and passion. Her head moved with the beat and it seemed as if she was putting her entire being into this song. The tone was rich, her balance was perfect, I was half expecting to see a bee to show up. It may sound weird …I wish I could describe it but…there is just no way. The girl and her violin hypnotized me. It filled me with happiness, made me feel like I was flying so when she finished I came crashing back down to earth. Once she took the bow from the string, she snapped her head to the boy on the floor who was still gazing at his watch. "Uhh…looks like a minute and ten seconds. Sorry."

"ARG!" She said with a huff as she angrily placed the wooden instrument back in the case. Why sorry? Why should he be sorry, that was incredible! It was edgy and cool and perfect and it filled me with the rush I've been looking for! She is just the girl I need to replace Temari but I need to be gentle with her. There was no doubt she still had a sour taste for me and I descided right then and there I was going to change her mind. She is who I wanted and I was going to get her but how was I- just as the thought was forming, my butt accidently bumped into a music stand sending it crashing to the floor in an explosion of sound. Two bodies jump and whirl around to face me. Wow…will my "dumbassness" never seize? I went from a fly on the wall to the center of attention in less than a second.

"I uh" My mouth suddenly became very dry and I broke out into a raging sweat. I think the guy was looking at me, couldn't see passed those damn glasses, but the girl, once over the shock of me, blushed and looked at the ground in embarrassment. I could have easily said something like "What the fuck are you looking at?" or "Am I not allowed to be in my own school?" but for some reason the picture of me sitting all alone at lunch flashed through my mind. I didn't want to be that guy. Yeah I wanted the respect but not like that… so something came out. It was so stupid, so childish, and my voice cracked right in the middle. "You play good!" What. The. Fuck. I sounded like a…a…baby! I mean come on! I obviously caught them both by surprise as well, because even the girl gawked at me. I felt my cheeks become hot and I knew that she wasn't the only one blushing now. She just blinked her pale eyes, closed her parted mouth and averted her eyes once more.

"O-Oh th-th-thank you." She stuttered. Shestuttered? She sure as hell wasn't a stutterer when I first met her. My hand instinctively scratched the back of my head and the guy spoke his first words to me. It was right then, when he opened his mouth, I knew I hated him.

"It's well." My eyes went from the cowering girl to his reflective glasses, dumbstruck.

"What?" was all that came out. He just brought a finger to his frames and adjusted them.

"It isn't "You play good" it's "You play well" see? That sounds better." Now it was her turn to be the one that was surprised.

"Shino-kun! That was very rude." DAMN STRAIGHT IT WAS RUDE but he didn't care, he just shrugged.

"Hey might as well teach him how to speak properly." He made me sound like a caveman, or like he was training a dog. Screw him. Screw her. Screw lunch. I just raised my middle finger to him, glared at her, and stormed out.

I could never see that guys face again and that would be just fine by me but like it or not they are sitting right across from me and I don't know what to do. Ok that's a lie. I know just what I should do with him, I should stride right over to him, wind up, and punch him square in his sunglasses, but her…She is a tough one. So far I've seen two sides to that chick; the one with the violin and the stutter, and the one I met my first day. Who the hell was she? Well best way to find out is straight up ask, so I interrupted Kiba's girl speak with a nudge. "Hey…" I said in a low grumble.

"she is just as good- huh? What?" My eyes were fixed; she was the only one I saw tonight.

"What's her deal?" Kiba paused a little taken aback but followed my gaze across the fire.

"OOOOOH NO man, she is not for you!" I turned my neck so I could look at him.

"Why? What's wrong with her?" Kiba chuckled and shook his head in disbelief.

"Just trust me ok….damn out of every girl here you had to pick her…" Ok now he was making me mad, she didn't seem to have anything wrong with her. He was the crazy one right now so I grab him by the jacket and yank him close enough so I could practically feel his paints on my cheek.

"Just talk." I said through gritted teeth. He grabbed my hand with both of his in a desperate attempt to free himself from my hard as steel grip.

"Ok! Easy man!" I let go but keep a firm glare on him as he brushed himself off. "Look, I used to have a thing with her and trust me you won't get anywhere." My anger turned into confusion and it must have been as plain as day on my face cause he just laughed again. "She isn't getting with anyone. Every guy here has tried, especially me…I mean if you can get her!" he paused and snickered to himself again. "You would be a legend man! Best of luck to you but when I tried she straight up told me she was "Saving herself for marriage" I mean what B.S. How fucking conceited can she be, I mean what's the big deal? …." He sipped at his beer in annoyance as I began to stare at her again. "Speaking of which!" I didn't move an inch as Kiba got up from the log and made a V-line for Ino that was being half groped by a guy that was certainly not 18. I stayed on that log until I hit the bottom of yet another cup and since I wasn't doing anything else I thought I might as well get one more. I stood up, popped my back, and made my way to the keg. I had to nearly fight my way through a group of drunk ass guy that reeked of body odor and piss, and began to fill my cup. I don't know what it was about her but I didn't want to keep my eye off of her so I shifted to I could get a better view of her through the wall of people. The fuck? I thought, Where the hell did he go? She was all alone, legs crossed, staring into the fire with a sadden look on her face. I scanned the clearing hurriedly, did I finally get an opening? It took me a little persistence but I found him talking to some guy that most definitely didn't go to our school. It looked like he was getting pretty chummy with his new friend and knew he wasn't going anywhere fast. So, without thinking, I filled up a second cup to the brim with beer, puffed out my chest, and marched right to her. I think I scared her with my little grizzly bear approach, cause she gave a small squeak and jumped so high I thought she was trying to stand up, making me stumble back in alarm. We just stayed there, eyes locked not saying a word. I was the first to break the silence with a simple. "Hey." Wow maybe I do talk like a cave man… The pinkish tint on her cheeks was obvious even in this bad lighting.

"Hi…" she said meekly. Pause. "Uh." Pause. "W-would you care to sit down?" She stuttered again but I'm thankful she allowed me to join her on the log but not before getting a long, hard, look at the two cups in my hand. I extended one to her.

"Here." I said. I didn't bother asking, by the way she was eyeballing the kegs all night I knew for a fact she wanted one. She didn't take it right away she just stared at it before looking me dead in the eyes.

"Isn't there a rule about not taking drinks from strangers?" So she wasn't just a stutter, she had a backbone in there somewhere and I knew that wherever it was, there was still a part of her that hated me.

"Yeah…but rules are meant to be broken." I said with a shrug and apparently that was all she needed cause she took the cup from my hand. So there we were, just sitting on a log in silence, the only noise was my gulps of liquor. After a little bit I decided to attempt to cut the awkwardness. "Don't like it?" I made a gesture to her cup, mine was almost gone but hers still was fairly close to the rim. I thought it was amusing, before she even tasted it, she bent down and sniffed it and once she did take a drink she grimaced.

"It's fine I guess…" I tilted back and poured the rest of mine down my throat.

"You don't have to like it ya know." I said through a belch. "This cheap stuff tastes like piss." It was then that I heard something I never thought I would ever come from this girl. A giggle. It was small, it was shy, but it was a genuine giggle. Hell I'm on a roll! Might as well keep going. "So what's your name? I've met ya twice, still have no clue who you are." The corners of her mouth just barely upturned into a smile.

"Hyuga Hinata, you?" I ignored her question for it took a second for her name to fully sink in.

"Hyuga?" She nodded sheepishly. "Wait it can't be the same Hyuga like in "Hyuga Corp."?" She just brought her hands to her hands in exasperation.

"Yeah…"

"The same "Hyuga Corp." that owns half of Japan?!" She just nodded, not even attempting to look at me. By the look of her face she wasn't happy that I brought it up, I would bet everything I own that this girl get reactions like mine quite often. Hell I would hate it too! I would feel like I was just a name, a title, a title that someone else earned and I was just along for the ride. I wanted to adhere to her good side so I decided the best thing I could do was brush it off with a simple "Cool." and change the subject. "So what were you doing this morning?" She looked up from her hands, jaw dropped. I grinned for the first time today. "Thought I was gonna gush?" She nodded still mouth opened. "Well to damn bad. I'm not gonna treat you like your any better than me…Even if you've been raised to think so, your not!." My tone was harsh but I don't think she took it as negative; instead she closed her mouth and smiled a full smile. The type of smile that shows a person's teeth and make their eyes squint. She didn't explain herself but simply said,

"Thank you." and the matter was dropped.

"You never answered my question." I said bringing my gaze to the fire.

"You never answered mine." She said into her cup as she attempted to take another drink of beer.

"What fucking question?" I asked a little annoyed, why was she avoiding it? She looked at me with a sense of "matter of fact" and gave a one word replay.

"Name." Ok it was my turn to smile a little but I just put on the best badass face I could a scoffed.

"If I told you that were is that sense of mystery?" She did it a second time, she laughed but she didn't try to hide it as a giggle, she fully laughed.

"I think you lost the mystery when you knocked over that stand this morning." Ok so this bitch was clever I will give her that. My cool guy routine kinda was down the toilet with her but I'm not going to let her know it bothers me so I just shrug and gave her a very serious look.

"What were you doing?" She kept her eyes on me for a while before turning away.

"Practicing." I scoffed.

"Well no shit. Practicing for what?" Her attention was locked on the ground and she was silent for what seemed like forever until her lips finally parted.

"Don't laugh." I said nothing. Who am I to make a promise I couldn't keep? "I'm trying to…break the world record…" I half expected her to continue but she never did.

"For…?" I trail of in a smart ass manner making her head to whip around and look at me, not amused.

"Fastest violin playing." I raise my hands mockingly.

"Oh well of course! Look at me being the dumbass!" She was unimpressed but to damn bad, she deserved it. It suddenly became awkward again, don't ask me what happened but it did. Neither one of us look at the other and no one made any effort to start the conversation back up again. I have no clue how long we were sitting there is pure silence until a guy I knew to be called "Choji" came up to us blabbering and stumbling. It was more than obvious that he had a few to many, he actually almost walked straight into the fire but I managed to pull him back. He said what I think was a thank you before his face became whiter than death, he doubled over, and vomited right in front of the log, almost hitting Hinata's shoes. Then two hundred pounds of muscle and chips came down as Choji swayed and fell right on top of me. It took a great deal of effort to regain myself and place him on the log, out cold. I make contact with the darting eyes of one flustered Hinata, figure I might as well go for it, and extend my hand to her and ask,

"Wanna go for a walk?"

We didn't really know where we were going the clearing was surrounded by the densest woods I've ever seen and there were absolutely no paths. Were we worried about getting lost? Not at all, no matter where we meant, no matter how far we wandered the tiny orange flicker of the fire was always visible between the trees. We walked in mostly silence, one would try and start something, the other would respond, and then the topic would die. It was weird, is this what a really bad first date felt like? I never really had a date so I wouldn't know. I would just get the girl in bed and that would be it. I don't mind silence but this was ridiculous, just when I was about to give up she dropped a bombshell. "What did he say about me?" I was taken aback.

"What?" She stopped walking and turn so we were face to face, wearing a blank look.

"What did Kiba-kun say about me?" I was befuddled. I had my eye on her the whole time I could have sworn she didn't see me.

"I-uh, we weren't-"

"I saw you two, don't lie, there is nothing I hate more than liars. What did he say?" I don't know why my go-to emotion is anger but it always is, just like a scared animal I start biting if I feel like I'm trapped so I turned the tables.

"Is that the only reason why you talked to me? To pump me for information about your ex?"

"So he told you we used to date?" That little bitch turned them right back.

"I-uh I" She sighed and pressed her back against a tree and brought her hands to her face in embarrassment.

"He told you I was a prude didn't he?" I didn't confirm, I didn't deny, I just gave her a blank look so she continued. "I'm not really a bitch you know! I don't care what other people do, all I want is the same courtesy. Do you know how annoying it is having everyone in the school gossip about your private business? I'm not a prude." Her tone was desperate like she was trying to convince herself more than me "I just!…I just-" she was silenced by my lips pressed against hers. You know those seen in the movies were the guy and girl just randomly kiss? Well that was what happened. The moment just felt empty, in need for something…something passionate! So I just pounced. It was a pretty stationary kiss, ok stationary wasn't the right word. I sure did catch her by surprise, she was as stiff as a board and my larger body just enveloped her. She tried to do that weird thing that girls sometime do were they turn it into a hug but I wasn't going to let that happen. Instead her movement allowed me to tilt my head and thanks to her surprise, her mouth was practically wide open, mine for the taking. So, I just push my tongue right in, invading her mouth. I gave her own paralyzed tongue a quick flick before I decided to release her. I pull my lips away from hers but made no effort to widen the distance between our bodies, instead I just kept my eyes burned into hers. No one moved, no one breathed. It was absolute silence but I knew…I knew once I did it, once I saw the twinkle of hunger in her eyes I knew what was going to happen and before another second passed the space between us closed once more.

This time was far more enjoyable, she was kissing me right back with just as much emotion. I'm always the one in control and I decide to make that clear right off the bat by bringing my hands to her waist and returned her up against the tree. She was more than willing to be moved as my mouth slowly made hers open once more. I didn't move in right away this time, instead I enjoyed it while her sweet, hot air came rushing into my mouth. I move my lips in different directions, slowly messaging mine on hers while she finally brought her hands up. The started on my chest, simply just resting there but they soon slid up to my shoulders and one even found its way into my hair, clenching it, it was then that I chose to strike. I moved my tongue and attacked hers once more. I found it amusing that she thought she could try and wrestle her way into my mouth but oh no. I dominated her and thanks to the tiny moans that came from her throat, I knew that was what she wanted. So chose to step it up a little. I move my hands from her waist and shot them up to my head so I was holding her wrists I then slowly slither my hands down bring her tiny ones with them. I never break the kiss as I force her arms stretched out on the tree. I then remove my tongue from the cave of her mouth I smirk and she attempts to conquer my mouth but I don't let her in. To insure she can't try again I remove my lips from hers, ignoring the string of saliva that follows, and move them along her jawline. I move at a slugs pace as she gasps for air. I go from her lips down once side of her jaw, so far that I'm practically kissing her ear, then back up, make a quick stop at her mouth so I can dive back in, then back down the other side. I find her neck slowly craning upward and I know exactly what she wants. I go back to her mouth and enjoy that for a little while before I slowly make the journey down her neck. I move slowly, up and down all the while she is moaning and begging for more. Her hands clutch mine as I continue the trip on her skin when I finally make it to the sweet spot. The area where her neck and shoulder meet. It was there that I start to make tiny swirls with my tongue before I bite down. She gives a passionate

"Ha-" before she begins moaning again. Hmmm I think so that's what you like… I smile into her skin as a nibble again and listen as her moans become louder. I stay on that spot for a while, biting and licking before I decide to move to the other side of the neck but not without leaving my mark. So I go back to the spot that she seemed to enjoy the most, bite once then begin sucking. I suck for a good while, just on one section of skin, and once I feel like she had enough I released her, pleased at the small bruise that now blemishes her pale neck. I tilt my head to I can get the other side of her neck and right as I move for her collarbone…In a flurry Hinata wrenches her arms from my grasp, places her hands on my chest and pushes me. Hard. I stumble back a few steps trip on a root or something and go crashing to the dirt. Wind knock out of me and painting, all I could do was look up at the now teary eyed Hinata.

Hinata POV

Oh God, what have I been missing out on for all these years! The night started out so shitty and now it's… WOW! I was just sitting with Shino when he suddenly told me he recognized a guy from some website for single gay guys and left me stranded on my log. I was there all by myself not even for five minutes before this guy walked up to me. THE SAME ONE FROM THIS MORNING! My checks start to feel red hot and I get this amazing feeling wash over me. Almost as if someone put an electric blanket on me. What the hell is this? I've met him twice, don't know his name, and yet…I get these butterflies. Oh why did God curse me with this blush?! I can only pray he could see how much I was sweating when he sat down. Why didn't I take more time getting ready? I must look awful! He gives me a red cup filled with this disgusting liquid and we just start talking. It felt easy, it was fun, and I was enjoying myself for the first time in what seemed like forever until Choji came and ruined everything. I kind of just assumed a two hundred pound football player like him could handle a drink but I guess I was wrong. His fat ass just lumbered over to us complaining about being hungry or something and tumbles down. It was thanks to "Blondie" he didn't roll into the flames! He did, however, manage to vomit all over and passed out, clamming the log as his makeshift bed. I was in utter shock. Well I think there goes my evening but Blondie asked me something that really made me blush.

"Wanna go for a walk?" Wow…That took gumption. I knew if I was in his place I probably just made up some horrible excuse, like say

"Oh well would you look at the time!" and just get away before he could speak but…not him, no he seems to actually want to spend time with me...Not once in my life have I felt like I make good company, people don't seem to truly enjoy themselves when they are with me. I usually start off great, shy, but great. Then around five minutes of weird jokes and awkward silences they person I'm with is usually looking for an escape route. It feels nice. Nice to be wanted.

We go on walking for quite a while, pretty quiet, but it was whatever I guess. The only major problem just started gnawing my mind and would stop. It just filled me with doubt and curiosity, more and more. I just thought why why WHY? until I just blurted "What did he say about me?" not exactly a good icebreaker…Can you blame me? I look across the fire and what do I see? This guy that I barely know, and yet can't talk to without blushing, and Kiba…KIBA! He couldn't have made friends with anyone else? I know he is talking about me, mocking me…just like he always does. What did I ever see in him?! Oh yeah…desperation…Ok, maybe not all desperation, belive it or not there was a big heart in there once… He really changed since then...

It was in eighth grade, science class, cold morning. Everyone scrambled to find a partner before they got stuck with the teacher picking for them. I went to everyone, begging, pleading to take me but before I could blink I was all alone. Stuck with the most annoying, weirdest, smelliest kid in class. In case you couldn't guess, I got paired with Kiba. You see, back then he was mocked relentlessly, not for the smell or anything like that, all the guys smelled weird, but for his…hairiness. He was a fourteen year old boy covered with more hair than skin and was just attacked for it. He told me that by thirteen he could grow a beard but he had enough problems, so he shaved regularly. The only thing that was weird about being partners was that we didn't talk sooner. All through the lab I realized he was actually a very gently and funny person and we just hit it off!

Eighth grade was a blast and even freshmen year was amazing but…sophomore year…Once we were in high school everything just seemed to be a whirlwind of hormones and changes. We all hit puberty, both his muscles and my chest grew bigger and it was as if we became desirable overnight. Never in a million years did we think we would have a chance but…high school is one crazy place. We tried to stay together as much as possible, didn't want to abandon each other, he was still my sweet Kiba. I can still recall he would walk me home every day even though he lived nowhere near me. He would even carry my backpack, Yeah, ACTUALLY carry my backpack the whole way! He would also make sure to grab my books for me before we went down to lunch and everything was…perfect. Or so I thought

I thought we were done with the growth spurts but I was only half right. I was done growing but Kiba, oh Kiba just seem to grow taller every day and even asked me if he should go out for football. Of course I was supportive and he was enthusiastic! Well he made it to JV the beginning of our sophomore year and was the beginning of the end. It started out small, told me he couldn't walk me home anymore.

"Practice" he would say, "Coach said I need to buckle down." Well he did. He worked hard, trained harder, seemed to just demolish the competition. Soon he bulked up even more until he was as big, if not bigger, than most of the seniors, and became one of the best Linebackers that the school has ever seen. Needless to say no one thought of him as a nerdy kid with a little peach fuzz but as the football star. The girls swarmed. They greeted him before and after practice, they brought him lunch, they even stole him away from me during school dances! I was lucky enough if we even talked on the phone where he would just assure me that I was the only one for him but how could I believe him? I had to keep up some way! The solution? Use my body. I slowly started to show more skin, bought a few bras with a little more padding, letting him go a little farther with me until he was obsessed with me once again. I was definitely all his once more but…at what cost? The Kiba I knew, the Kiba I met was gone now and in his place was a man I did not know. He started to walk me back to my house but always insisted on coming in and "fool around". When we would walk down the hall together his hand would always start on my waist and before the bell rang it found its way to my ass. Did I break up or tell him different? No. My mind desperately clung to the little hairy boy in eighth grade that never went further than kissing my cheek. I saw what a great person he could be and the one that constantly forced his tongue down my throat was certainly not him but…I didn't want to say goodbye so I suffered in silence.

The summer before junior year, one night…all it took was one night to change everything! We were at my house, just hanging out on a couch in the basement when he slowly started to envelop me. Touching me and kissing me, not paying any attention to the boundaries I set, he just took over my body as if it was his own. When it started out, I would just giggle and say "Don't" but as he got more drastic, "He-he ok Kiba-kun…enough." More, he just wanted more. "Ok I'm serious now." More…more. "Really enough!" More More More "STOP IT!" MORE MORE MORE MORE! I quickly dig my nails in to the skin of his broad shoulders in a feeble attempt to free myself which just resulted in him sitting back and enclosing me in a tight bear hug.

"Come one Hinata-chan…" He grunted in my ear "I want you..." I squirmed in his arms but he acted as if didn't bother him one bit.

"I told you, I'm waiting for marriage."

"Fuck marriage!" He said squeezing me even tighter, making it rather hard for me to breath. "I've been with you for years Hinata-chan and I'm done just sitting back and letting you tell me what I can and can't do. I've earned this!" and with that he was on top of me. Kissing, biting, licking, grinding, sweating, twist all over my body. My shirt ripped, his pants were off, he was all ready to take the most precious thing I have. The one thing I can give, the one thing I have in this world and he is about to steal it. Time is running out, he is wrestling with my pants button so what do I do? Cry. The tears just flow and the sobs just break out of my throat. My chest heaves, snot drips, and I can practically taste the bitterness of heartbreak. There is nothing left to say, nothing left to do so I make one final, pitiful attempt.

"Please Kiba-kun…" I whisper in his ear, so soft, so meek, so innocent, and it was just what it took. He stopped, he actually stopped, took his attention away from my body and finally made eye contact with me. I saw him. It was a quick glimpse but I most certainly saw him. Kiba, the REAL Kiba, the one I was proud to say was my boyfriend and I truly believe he finally saw that man too. He remember what he was once like and how broken he is now. There I saw a small tear form in the corner of Kiba's eye but before it had time to fall he was up the stairs and out the door. I just laid there, in stunned silence, half undressed and broken hearted. I never really spoke to him after that. He returned to his football buddies and I drifted through high school trying to figure out who I really was and look at me now…being pressed against a tree and making out with a total stranger. It started out off guard but GOD I wanted some action and I wanted it now so I left the blonde boy take me from the fire, lead me out into the woods, and push me up against a tree. Just when things were getting fun that memory of Kiba flashed through my head and I froze. If I let this happen now, I am no better than the girl Kiba wanted me to be. I don't want to be easy, I don't want to lose the last shred of self-respect that I have so I rip my arms from him and shove with all my might and watch him topple to the ground. I couldn't speak I just gaze in horror at the poor boy in front of me.

"What the hell is wrong with you!?" He yells scrambling to his feet "I didn't bite that hard!" All I could do was claw into the tree's bark with my fingers nail and try to get something other than sobs to come out of my mouth.

"What puff Kind puff Of puff Girl puff Do you puff Think puff I puff Am!" It was his turn to look dumbstruck and who could blame him? I was sending some pretty mixed signals. "I don't care puff what Kiba-kun said puff I'm not like that! You and everyone else in this fucking school might want me to be but I'm not! puff I'M NOT DAMN IT!" By this time I was absolutely screaming and not at him and for what he did but mostly Kiba. Kiba was the one that broke me. Kiba was the one I trusted. Kiba was the one who left me and I'm not going through that again. I was just trembling with anger…no not just anger, relief. I'm so use to keeping my emotions bottled up, I was always told women must stay calm and collected every minute of every day but not me. Not today. "I'm not going to just stand here and be made a fool of!" I made an attempt to move past him but his large frame block my path so I acted as if I was going to hit him, resulting in him grabbing my wrists and refusing to let go.

"CALM THE FUCK DOWN! I never did anything to you! Last time I checked you were kissing me too! So before you start acting all high and mighty why not just take a good, hard look at yourself." Every word he said was like ice but I was far too fired up to let him win.

"YEAH? Well answer me this, why did you come over and sit next to me!? Why did you listen to me play this morning? Why did you look at me your first day? Why can't you be like everyone else and just ignore me?!"

We both froze to stare at each other his perfect blue eyes met my puffy red ones and time just stood still. I felt like I could read everything about him and who he was. I saw something in him, something very dangerous something…exciting. And that blonde haired, blue eyed boy did something that shocked us both. He released my wrists, grabbed my shoulders and brought me into his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and placed his head on top of mine and whispered something in my ear. So soft and warm but very clear.

"Same reason why you don't ignore me…" And that was all it took… I was butter in his arms. I did my best to hug him back but his massive body made it difficult so I just let myself be shrouded…and I loved it.

The walk back was silent but strangely not awkward. We kept our eyes forward, bodies apart, and that was all that mattered when we emerged from the brush I was strange to discover that almost everyone was gone. There was still a handle full of people gathered around the still blazing fire but no one else. Looked up at the moon and bluntly stated it was almost three and that most people went home or are in the cabins. When I failed to find Shino sitting in the fire I went to go where the car was park and starred in horror as a new car was in its spot.

"Shino-kun…" I whispered in shock. He left me! SHINO LEFT ME! What did he expect me to do? And it wasn't even he waited around for me, got tired, and left. NO! I could have be gone more than an hour or so and the fact that there is a new car, plus ONE BEHIND IT, proved that he left the party pretty early. People had to be still arriving when he left. I reached into my pocked and pulled out my cell phone. One missed call. From two hours ago. He left at one a.m. I know for a fact I was still on the log at one o'clock and he still left me. Now what?

"Problem?" He asked in a low growl.

"I uh…" I said through chattering teeth "seemed to have lost my ride…" I guess it took a second for my words to fully sink in.

"Wait, the dude with the sunglasses LEFT YOU?" I did nothing more than nod as I watched his expression grew from confusion to anger. "What a dick move! Who does he think he is? I should just take him and-"

"It's ok really! I'm sure he didn't mean to, I can get a ride from someone over there." I made a gesture to the group around the fire only to get a disapproving look from him.

"One of them?" I simply nodded, "The ones too drunk to stay on a log? No, you're coming with me." He didn't ask, he didn't suggest, he just ordered me and I gladly followed. He brought me halfway across the parking lot and my jaw half drop when I saw his "ride".

"I-I didn't know you drove a motorcycle…"

"Yeah! That's not a problem is it?" considering my options it was like a limo.

"No." I said simply and walked over to it. He undid a small pouch on the side of the seat a removed a pair of goggles from it and then proceed to remove his jacket and extend it to me. When I tried to say no he just scoffed

"Sorry it's not minx." He had me. Damn it I was putty in his hand. I took his jacket and put my arms through it. IT WAS HUGE! I could have worn it as a dress if I had the mind to, but I stayed silent as he mounted his vehicle and scouted up so I could get on behind him. I wrapped my arms around his waist and buried my face into his back.

What the hell am I doing? Was my only thought as the beast came alive with a huge rumble and we sped down the dark path back to society... back to reality… Oh dear Lord take pity on me! I feel like I will be sinning quite a lot soon…I place my chin on his shoulder and peeked into the darkness.

"Oh By the way!" I was right next to his face and I could barely hear him over the thunder of the engine "My name is Naruto!" I couldn't stop myself from breaking into a wide smile and clutch him tighter. The only thing I could do was hum happily as my fingertips stroked the sleeve of his jacket. His brown, worn, leather jacket.

Yep! Finally got it! Hope you liked it!

A.N. Those "puffs" were the sound of Hinata's sobs, I really couldn't think of anything else to write
