I do not Naruto.
In Itachi's view.
I watched Hinata with concern, on her face and in her eye's you could see that she was torn, but I was glad she reacted the way she did to Sasuke's appearance.
I tried to tell myself that she was beginning to see the truth, but my head tell me she still was confused.
I wanted to hurt Sasuke for being so unfaithful, I had thought I taught him better.
I looked at Hinata-hime and tried to see if she remembered the days we use to spend together, all the promises and forgotten days when we held each other , she was the only thing that got me through my childhood and teen years... I had been the one who held her when she cried, and picked up the pieces when everyone else broke her, why couldn't she remember?.....
~*~ flashback~*~
The day I met her, I was just 15 years old , our families were meeting so our fathers could talk about business...
Our parents had sent us away while they spoke, she was such a timid girl...
She lead me in to they're garden's, there in the middle of the maze of the rarest flower's in all the nation...
In the center was a pond, with a small water fall... She knelt by the side of it, and looked at me shyly,
If you want I will give you a tour, she murmured...
I smiled ( which was odd, I hardly ever did) and knelt by her side, she shed a tear,
" we better do something or my father will get angry.."
I just want to sit with you, I whispered in her ear....
She blushed, and lowered her eye's from my gaze, she stared at the water .... Suddenly there was a ripple...
Why do you cry? I asked gently..
She smiled weakly, because noone's ever said that to me....
Don't listen to what they say, I murmured...
She looked me in the eyes...
"It's hard not to listen to the voices screaming in your ear, do this, do that, don't see him , see her , forget this, remember this, there is always something always a demand..."
She looked down, and I noticed a scar that decorated her wrist...
"I had tried to put an end to it all.... But I couldn't finish it..."
She smiled grimly, how cruel is it, that the people we're trying to escape, are always the reason we stay....
She looked down and picked an water lily....
She caressed one of the petals....
You shshouldn't try to understand me, my story isn't a pleasant one.....
I kissed her neck softly....
"I'm not sure I can live with myself if I stop now..."
Gently with a under her chin, I turn her head so she was looking at me...
For a moment I stared at her eyes, so beautiful....
I tilted my head and gently kissed her lips, I watched her eyes flutter shut with pleasure... Slowly mine followed suit....
~*~ flashback ends~*~*~
I looked at Hinata, and watched her drift asleep as she dropped the engagement ring, I couldn't help but pray that I would be able to make her fall in love with me...
