Opening the door into the apartment he helped the girl with his coat. He watched her as she looked around. The Uchiha home was large, a penthouse basically. It was furnished mostly in white and red. Black, Itachi had said, was to predictable of them.

"Take a seat. I'll make some tea."

"T..thank..y..you."

She sat herself onto the coach and stared at the collection of photo's on the mantel. She wandered over to it and saw a younger version of the man and another boy. His usual scowl was replaced with a childish smile. She giggled and browsed over the other pictures. One caught her eye. And she picked up from the back. It was a 7 year old Sasuke, he had the look of fear in his eyes. The person next to him was older and clearly his father.

"Hn...that's me and dad."

Hearing the sudden voice caused the girl to drop the frame. A small crack forming between the family members. She quickly placed it back in her hands and onto the top.

"I'm very sorry!"

"Don't worry. I didn't like that one anyway."

"..oh.."

He handed her a cup and poured the green liquid in. She peered down into it and blinked at her smudged reflection. She felt the eyes of the Uchiha on her back and she wanted to ask him about the photo.

"I don't like my father. I don't think he ever acknowledged me as his son."

Turning to the male she couldn't find the words to say.

"It's alright. Not many people understand it so it's best you don't say anything at all."

She sighed and touched the side of his cheek with her finger. His onyx orbs meeting hers.

"Sasuke..."

He leaned in, but a loud smash sounded and the pair turned wide eyed to see Itachi and a tall blueish man carrying him. The older brother looked a little, drunk.

"Sasu-kun who is that beautiful creature?"

Said boy flushed pink and dashed over to his smitten sibling.

"Thanks Kisame, I owe you."

"Whatever, he always goes a little overboard in the bar, I'll take him to my place if your, doing anything"

He peeked at the blushing Hyuuga and Sasuke hissed.

"We aren't doing anything just get him out of here."

The Hoshigaki smirked and began to back away.

"Sure. Have fun kids! Remember PROTECTION!"

Shutting the door into the swordsman's face, the male trudged over to the giggling female.

"Your brother and friend seem nice."

"Yay, well you don't live with them..."

His councilor laughed and took a sip of her drink. It was quite and no one really wanted to break the silence. A thought struck the boy and he jumped up, running into his room. Returning a minute later with a box. It read 'The game of Life'. He set it down and gave a suggesting look to the girl. She nodded and joined him on the rug.

2 hours later

"HA! I WIN!"

"NO YOU'RE A CHEATER UCHIHA!"

"NOPE I RETIRED FIRST!"

They burst out into a fit of giggles as they knocked over the small buildings and cars. Wiping a tear from the corner of her eye in joy, Hinata let out short gasps at her laughing overload.

"That was EPIC."

"Yes, yes it was."

Settling down, they lay on the carpet starring up at the ceiling. Lacing his hand in hers, they kept their position. Right now the world of Rehab didn't exist. They were just to adults who liked having each others company. They were friends.

"Hey it's like 8:30"

"Oh no! Neji is going to be angry."

Leaping up, the worried woman stumbled over the game and frantically searched for the door.

"Hinata, calm down."

He took her hand again and lead her to the exit. Handing her an umbrella, he smiled as she thanked him for the stay.

He didn't listen. Bending down he kissed her lips softly. She automatically stopped speaking a turned a dark maroon.

"Bye Hinata, have a safe trip home. See you tomorrow."

He gave her palm a squeeze and shut the door.

"Yeah, see you tomorrow Sasuke."
