This chapter is a total twist in the story and its proper honor. So the story begins properly until now. NOTE: you may not like. 3 I'm sorry for the mistakes and the sudden inexplicable twist.
DO YOU?
Goo Goo Dolls- Before it's too late
Even if it was late ,the darkness didn't manage to completely envelop the area yet. Durable spring. Everything finally lived, raised from a very long, comprehensive sleep. And this evening, it was an awakening. Even if, exceptionally, it was cool and gentle breeze that flushed skin in velvety chills material. There wasn't anything or anyone who might be able to stop all this aura or two young people in ecstasy waiting for the mysterious meeting. And the fact that it was a secret is the saddest part of the story. But it was only a few months after the events of THAT day.
Events Of That Day
He threw all his hatred for what was happening in him and decided to admit that he wasn't totally emotionless. He, powerful, proud, brave and unique, Sasuke Uchiha, he felt his own heart. Pounding, raging, hot and wild pulling in chest every time he saw her. When he finally let curtains of his mystery drop and let to himself a lot of hateful thoughts, SHE was the only thing that could take place in his head for hours. She was beautiful. Delicate. She was all the good in the world and he sometimes wondered how is it possible that something so perfect was released to the world by human. She was the goddess, slightly stammering , admittedly, but still a goddess. And between him and her all was like a fairy tale. As if it was all one big dream. Beautiful hoax. However, the short stolen days of happiness didn't last long. In their world, nothing good could last even a moment. But they never suspected that the time reassert its taken days in such a short time. Still it did so. For her, that day the walls of the world sunk into the ground and the sky enveloped fire. And Sasuke felt it too.
"You were engaged. You are already 17 years old, it is a time to meet the obligation." said gruffly head of The Hyuga clan, Hiashi." It is a time to make something of you and it is a time for you to fill our clan with pride"
Hinata didn't scream, didn't beg or ask why. She knew very well that it no longer make sense at the time when the salty tears of mad sorrow that raged in her soul ran down her cheek. The only thing she could do was looking dispassionately at one point through the window and uttering a single sentence :
"W-whose wife will I be and when?"
"Neji Hyuga. Month." said Hiashi relentlessly.
Too many thoughts that were too powerful for a person as fragile as she hit in her poor head . A million thoughts swirling in her mind didn't allow her to choose one of them. And it lasted until, when she was sitting on the wet grass in front of her lovers house, crying like she had never before. She couldn't remember how she got there. But she could remember that she was devastated. She was getting married, not to the one she loved, but to her cousin. Hinata would do anything to avoid having to do that and she would do anything to not having to tell that to Sasuke. But the retreat was impossible. There was no way that she could get home. Her house has just burned, and with it all the dreams that it symbolized. And she, Hinata Hyuga, the unhappiest person in the world, she couldn't do anything. In a month she was going to be wife of her guardian angel, Neji.

Sasuke couldn't see Hinata for a week. Since the start of the holiday. He stared blankly at the ground. Naruto ran around gleefully tossing the ball as high as he could. What a happy idiot. Shikamaru looked at him with a cynical smile.
"Dude, come on, play with us," moaned Naruto releasing another batch of sweat.
"Not today"
Shikamaru looked toward Sasuke and put his hands in his pockets. What he pulled out was the biggest gesture of friendship that Nara could offer . It was a big, fat joint.
"Embrace ur ass. We'll smoke , and then try to blow this trouble of yours. Fuck, that is so troublesome"
Sasuke looked at his friend and nodded. Without hope. Solve the problem? Kind of like? They took her. There were so few things he could do. On the other hand, two probably least predictable in the world guys were on his side . It was nice start after all. So he smiled.

Hinata was combing her long hair. Hard, dispassionately. She loved her cousin more than life, but not this way, not like she loved Sasuke. But she remained nice to Neji. She spent a lot of time with him, but it rewarded her loneliness only to a small extent. Hinata just wanted to meet with Sasuke. At the same time she knew that their love would be brutally interrupted in three weeks. She wasn't sure what to do. She loved Sasuke with all her heart, but she couldn't hurt Neji, who she cared about so deeply. But she was not selfish. She was created to make life easier for others ,to remove out of the way. And that's what she decided to do this time. Sasuke needed to forget about her. And the best way to forget and heal wounds is no view of the blade. And she decided to never see him willingly, decided not to be his blade, she didn't want to deepen the wounds .She loved him- truly. But she hoped so much that no one will never know. Cuz if someone would...she just needed to hide this. Maybe end. But she still was not sure if it's possible for her will to raised such an effort. She was caged.

Long-haired young man was thoughtfully staring at the dark sky. What were his plans for the future? Well, certainly not that. He had no intention to get marry. And certainly not at such a young age. And certainly not with HER. Of course he loved her. Not like a sister but also not as a lover. For him, she was such a small ... fellow. He was to protect her, but , fuck ,is it really needed to be that way?
The elders decided Neji, my dear, there is no turning back, this is your destiny.
What a silly voice? On the other hand, wasn't it what he believed his whole life? His destiny. Shit, it was. And he has just given caught up in the trap of his own beliefs. Neji just knew that the situation was hopeless. Neither he nor Hinata couldn't do anything to avoid that. They had to be faithful to the clan, duty and tradition. It was obove them- little pawns that they were. And even if it was sick and confused, he knew it well.
