Thanks for the reviews! Read the AN at the end, I'll explain my self^^

Don't own

Chapter 6- resist

I... I'm scared. I could feel that familiar tight feeling you get before crying, and I tried to swallow it down. I had to erase these fears, so what if this could be the end of something I loved, so what if father may give me bad news; I had to be bold like Ino-chan, I had to be strong like Gaara, smart like Sasuke... beautiful like Sakura. My shaking hands grasped for the door knob, "father, you wished to speak to me." I said to the closed door.

"Come in." I gave a quiet yes and bowed my head as I opened the door. With out looking up or turning around, I closed the door behind me and waited for my father to say something, "...Hinata, look up please."

"Ok." I whispered then willed my self to looking up. My father sat at his desk and two other men sat in front of him. The older man had short gray hair that was cut just above his ears while the younger man seemed to have a beautiful flowing mane of gold trembling down his shoulders. I've seen this boy before, Deidara; he was royalty with Gaara's sister and Sasuke's older brother. He didn't appear to be happy and seemed to look everywhere but his father, my father and I.

"Iwaga has come to me with a business idea that could aid us better then merging with the Sabaku Company, Uchiha Company and the Haruno Company combined." I felt a cold tingle go threw me... I'd heard about these things happening, but I'd always thought it would never happen in the present days, "Iwaga only asks for one thing, a daughter in-law."

I closed my eyes and took in some air, "I understand." I said, trembling over the words "Is there anything else?" I whispered.

"I want you to drop out of school." I reopened my eyes and looked at my father, "and I want you to stay away from your classmates, once you're married, you can't be running off to play with them, you have responsibilities at home."

I could feel the chock hold around my neck again... I bowed my head and spoke with a shaky voice, "Y-yes father."

"You may be dismissed." I didn't need to be told twice. I walked out and as soon as the door closed behind me, I bolted to my room.

Would it be like this if I was different, if mom was still here, if he loved me... What was I going to tell everyone, what was I going to do?

-(switching to no one's pov...cause If I sit here in front of my computer any longer I'll never get this chapter done -.-)

Iwaga Deidara sat there staring at the closed door. The sounds of that girl's footsteps were finally gone, but he couldn't move his eyes. This thing... it wasn't something he'd really cared about. To him, it was just another way for his dad to tie him down, but seeing that girl... like she could ever crack the wip.

...but there was something about her other then her ample chest that caught his eyes... her face, it was almost as pale as the moon, in dark clothing she must glow!

"As I've said, my company is yours if I receive half of it's profits."

"Yes." Haishi nodded, "the ceremony will be this July, that will allow us the time to contact the news media and set everything up."

Deidara stood up and left the room with out saying anything and ignored his father's response to his insubordination. It didn't take him long to leave the house and head towards his least favorite person...well at the moment he was only the second worst, but that didn't matter right now. He entered the club house that was an old were house they'd claimed back when they were kids and noticed everyone but Itachi together.

"What did your father want?" Tobi asked from his seat on top of a crate.

"Another forced marriage thing, this ones cute though." Deidara shrugged as he slid into his chair.

"You ok with that." Deidara heard Sasori say from his couch.

"Why not, I won't be disinherited completely and I get something to squeeze." he laughed and closed his eyes.

"We've known you since we were kids Dei, you're freaking out." Konan said. She was cuddled up next to Pein on their love seat.

"Heh, why should I freak out?" Deidara mentally grimaced at the sound of his voice going up. He turned over so Tobi couldn't see his face. He felt a hand lightly comb threw his hair. He smiled slightly, and turned over to look up at Temari's worried expression, "you're little brother's going to want to kill me Tem." he laughed.

Temari's eyebrow rose slightly, "Hinata?" she asked.

"yeah, I was surprised too, she's really grown up." Deidara said and flipped Itachi off as he entered the room. Itachi gave a questioning look then sat down on his chair, "Hey Uchiha, guess what, I'm getting married!" Deidara said in mock excitement.

"Who'd you get pregnant?" Itachi scoffed.

"No one, his father believes making him get married will some how make him take life more seriously... It's impossible, I know." Sasori said as he shuffled threw some important papers.

"So that's what Haishi was talking about with my father the other say... I was afraid it was for me." Itachi mumbled then took out his homework.

"It's not funny; Haishi's messing with more then Dei and Hinata's lives." Temari said as she sat down on the arm of Deidara's chair.

"It doesn't affect me." Itachi stated as he wrote down several things onto a piece of paper.

"Haishi's planning to give your company less now." Deidara stated with a wave of his hand

"Huh?" Itachi said and looked back over at Deidara.

"My dad's old, so he's decided to sell his company to Haishi...and since Iwaga weaponry is popular among the Japanese Army, Haishi will make even more money."

"What does your father get out of this?" Kakuza asked.

"His retirement will be over 1000 million yen every two months if I merry Hinata."

-(I think I'll go back to Hinata...)

I was lucky enough to be left alone for the rest of the night. I didn't cry, but I wanted to. I laid there in bed, staring at my cell phone and watched as people called me for hours. I was too afraid to say good bye.

I only got a few hours of sleep, and my dreams were filled with images of Naruto and everyone else... how could such a wonderful peaceful dream be a nightmare now?

When I awoke the next morning, my cousin was sitting in the chair next to my bed looking down at me.

"I heard from Hanabi." I said plainly, "are you ok with this?" Neji asked as he took my phone from my hands.

"I don't have a choice." I said and rolled over on my back.

"You could...run away." my eyes snapped back over at Neji and I gave him a little "huh". He rolled his eyes and leaned closer, "Naruto lives by him self, doesn't he... Just explain everything to him, and he'll no doubt hide you, and you have a better chance of getting closer to him." this was a new side to Neji that I've never seen before.

"If father found out, I'd..."

"If he can't find you, it doesn't matter. You've said it your self, he acts like he doesn't want you around." Neji said before leaning back in his chair.

"But Iwaga-"

"That's not important Hinata, what's important is you, and right now uncle isn't acting that way!" Neji seemed angry as he leaned forward, "my father told me before he died to take care of you, to help you be happy because there's no way your fucking father would ever try... run away Hinata, it's the only way for everyone to win." I felt tears well up at the corners of my eyes. He cared, someone in my family cared about me!

"I'm not confident enough to ask Naruto."

Neji smiled slightly, "I'll help you."

Ok, finally, after two days of straight writing (more like two days of straight sitting here looking at the screen blankly) I get to where I actually sort of like it.

I chose Deidara, for the simple fact that I felt I couldn't pin a reason for Sasuke or Itachi...and a few chapters back I expressed how he refused to go into business school, so he has a lot going against him if he wants his fathers company...and sadly he never will because his papa is selling it to Hyuuga. Oh, and I chose Iwaga for his last name because he's from Iwagakure and I'm not creative enough think of a better last name -.-

Oh...and I kept stumbling on a DeiTem pairing during the club house scene...would you guys be interested in that.

hum, what else to rant on... I still need a pairing for Ino, I'm at a crossroads between SasuIno and ShikaIno...there's also NaruIno, so you guys have a bit to chose from... just as long as it's not SakuIno...because I'm not very good at writing Femslash...

Hope this chapter didn't drag... or go to fast… those seem to be the only speeds my chapters can go...
