A dazed and sore Hinata slowly opened her eyes to find herself lying in an unfamiliar room.
Carefully shifting her gaze around, she recognised the area for being that of a Hospital room.
Confused, she moved her hand to the far side of her skull, feeling a large lump; she flinched as a sharp pain struck through her head.
She vaguely remembered what had happened…Meeting with Neji to ask a question. Of which she couldn't remember at the current time.
Laying out her clothes over her bed, heading into the bathroom…An image of Naruto flashed suddenly over her thoughts.
"…Naruto-kun?"
But why…? Had she seen him that morning?
Rubbing her eyes in frustration the girl heard a mumble from beside her bed, glancing over to see another body asleep in a bed next to hers.
"Hn…? H-Hinataaa…" The
teen muttered in a sleepy tone.
Brushing over his blonde locks, he
was met by the girls questioning expression.
Hinata let out a small gasp, why had Naruto been in hospital? Did something happen to the both of them? W-Were they attacked?
Dimly noting the Hyuuga panicking, he sat up giving his trade mark grin, eye's red from tiredness.
"Heh, don't worry Hinata, nothing bad really happened."
The boy gestured a reassuring look, but
somehow Hinata felt a pinch of annoyance.
If nothing bad had
happened, why were they both in hospital?
Letting out a sigh, she allowed the boy to continue on with explaining.
The
blonde look to the floor, a sweat drop finding its way down his
forehead.
Hinata took in every ounce of behaviour from the
blondes actions.
From his blush, to the sign of reluctance in his
eyes, the flash of guilt working its way through his mind.
Being a Hyuuga, you notice these signs without needing the byakugan active, immediately she could tell that whatever had happened had been remotely his fault.
Hinata stared back at him expectantly, pushing back the thought of how she wasn't the least bit nervous while alone with the blonde, and the boy looked up Hinata, clearing his throat.
"W-Well, it really was a big misunderstanding."
The girl continued glaring in the boys' eyes, reading his every expression.
"You see…The old ha- Umm, the Hokage, had assigned a mission for us today. You, me, Kiba and Shino!"
The girl look slightly confused, they hadn't had a mission together in years, and it was a strange thing to do now that team seven had a new member.
He understood the girls' expression.
"Oh, well I thought it was weird at first too, but Sai, Sakura and Yamato-sensei were assigned a mission together…" The boy grumbled angrily.
"I was told not to go because of the current rumours of the akatsuki being close by, so Shikamaru was asked to join for the mission instead.
"And with Kurenai-sensei's new baby, your team was down by one as well."
Hinata saw the jealousy flash in the boys eyes, she couldn't help but feel she'd seen that look somewhere recently…She couldn't place it on whom though.
"Like any Akatsuki bastards could stop me…" He was grumbling angrily to himself, reminding Hinata of how he seemed just like Konohamaru…Immature.
Sighing, she asked the boy to continue, as his expression change completely again, the jealousy washing away.
"Yeah well, like I said, we had a mission together so I figured I'd come around to inform you since we only live just down the street from each other and all."
His grin seemed to fade before he continued the next part, instead replaced by a blush.
"And well, Neji answered the door and told me to go wait in your room…You know that bastard shot me such a filthy look! What's his problem with me anyway, just 'cus I totally kicked his ass at the chuunin exa-"
"Naruto! The story…?" Hinata
grew impatient.
They were both in hospital and this idiot's
bloating about something from 3 years ago?!
"O-oh yeah, I guess I got a bit carried away." The boy blushed stupidly.
Hinata glared back, intimidating the blonde.
"Well I was in y-your room and…I heard a knock on the door and…when I looked up you…" Naruto struggled to finish the sentence. "Y-you…You just collapsed and that's how you hit your head!"
The boy
blurted out, completely skipping over the detail that she had been
wearing nothing but a short towel which had unfolded itself at the
impact of her fall.
Hinata's head dropped. She had fainted
again?
I suppose it was only a matter of time before I ended up
with a concussion. The girl sighed, how embarrassing on her
part…
Glancing back up, she questioned why Naruto was in here.
"Umm…Well I picked you up and lied you over the bed, you know, to try and check if you were o.k."
She could see the hesitation in his eyes.
"And…Well then Kiba walked in and got all jealous for some reason and started assaulting me!"
Hinata was shocked, Kiba?
What could he of been
jealous of?
She thought about how the scene would have
appeared to walk in on.
Her figure was laying on the bed…Naruto
beside her… How could he of been so annoyed at that
situation?
Hinata knew that he must be leaving something out, or even making it up. There is no way Kiba would of acted with such anger over something like that.
I mean, he had been the one encouraging her to be with Naruto! Why would he feel so protective then…
She glared back at Naruto, who seemed to be thinking of how to continue.
He obviously had to be lying, though why he'd see the need is the question bothering her the most.
"Surely…You are over exaggerating over Kiba-kun. He would never-"
The hyperactive teen lifted up his hospital shirt, revealing a bandaged, blood stained chest.
Hinata gasped, he can't be implying Kiba had done that…Surely!
Naruto's face was sincere as he lowered down his shirt.
"That bastard fucking stabbed me! Directly into my chest! "
Hinata couldn't believe his words, there is no way her team member could have done that.
"It would have been worse if I hadn't used the replacement jutsu faster!"
"You're lying!" Hinata
wouldn't believe him, she couldn't.
'Kiba-kun is not like
that! He'd never-"
"He tried to fucking kill me, Hinata! It's a good thing Neji came in when he did or I probably wouldn't have gone easy on him either!"
"What…Nii-san…?"
She knew how protective her cousin was to her safety, the first sign of trouble he would have restrained him without any remorse.
"W-what happened to Kiba-kun!?" The situation seemed to be growing worse at every detail.
"Huh… Kiba? You really care what happened to that damn bastard?!"
"He's my best friend; I need to hear his story before I start taking sides!"
"Isn't this wound in my chest a good enough indication to know who's side to be on!?"
Naruto was just about ready to leap out of his bed and slap the girl, was she really that clueless?!
"Maybe I could trust you a little better if you weren't lying!!"
Hinata didn't know what had come over her, she didn't care if she was yelling at the boy she thought she loved, she just wanted to know what happened to her friend.
"Lying!? You think this hole in my chest just got there by itself?!"
"I don't care about you! Just tell me where Kiba-kun is!!"
Naruto flinched at those words.
"You don't care, huh?"
He jumped up out of the hospital bed, ignoring the sharp pains in his chest from the sudden movement he then pinned the girl down to her own matris.
His face hovering right over her own.
The warmth of
their bodies seemed to draw them in closer together.
"If you don't care about me, then why were you peeking inside my bedroom yesterday?"
The teen breathed his words softly over the girls' lips, gazing directly into the clear grey eyes in front of him.
The girls eyes widened…H-he knew…
Hinata struggled against his weight over her body; he held both her arms against the matris, preventing her from fighting back.
What was he doing? Was he planning to hurt her?
"You…You knew I was there the whole time?"
The boy smirked.
"You may be able to read expressions, but you're awfully bad at concealing your presence."
Hinata clenched her teeth.
"Tell me the truth of what happened today."
Naruto moved her arms forward so he was holding down both with one hand, as the other trailed its way down past her face, gripping a hold onto the blanket over her body.
"You want to know…the truth?"
The blonde stripped the blanket off of her body, revealing the white, very see through hospital gear.
She could sense his change in chakra; this wasn't the normal Naruto she was used to. This one seemed more overpowering, lustful…dominant.
Trying again to break free of his grip, she felt a hand run across her collar bone, working its way toward the buttoned shirt.
"The
truth is..."
He ripped open her shirt, revealing her fully
matured breasts, taking in the sight before continuing.
"That I came there to see you for a much more important reason."
Hinata flinched as a hand found its way running across her chest, playfully running the fingertips over her nipples, squeezing gently as they hardened from the contact.
Naruto moved his face down, staring lustfully before running a tongue over her large breasts, taking the first into his mouth for a taste.
The girl let out a whimper, trying her best to move out from the boys grasp.
His grip tightened over the girls' arms as he thrust his crotch firmly against hers.
She could feel the hardened area pushing eagerly over the thin fabric of their pants.
He let out a deep breath as his face disconnected from the girls breast and hovered over to the next.
"You were passed out, naked; in front of me…Did you really expect me to be able to resist?"
He fiercely crushed his mouth against the new found breast, causing the girl to let out a quiet moan.
Hinata wanted to yell out for help, to try and get out of his grip, but she couldn't seem to find the strength to do anything but lay unwillingly under the boys aroused figure.
"I could have had my way with you then, while you were still unconscious…But then that bastard walked in on me…I didn't even get a chance to taste you yet…"
Naruto edged
his way down her stomach, placing kisses all the way to her pant
line.
He quickly began to pull then down, as he hesitated.
Hinata took this as her chance to break free of his hold as she kicked her legs outwards to attempt to push him off.
The boy fell flatly
against the ground, his face full of horror.
His breathing has
fastened to a dangerously fast pace as he started to twitch, eyes
locked on his hand.
The Hyuuga sat up; trying to see what was on the boys fingers.
She could see vast bugs spreading their way up the teens arm, digging into veins.
Hinata let out a small scream as she turned immediately staring to her crotch, revealing a whole nest of small black bugs.
Terror crossed her face; she lay frozen in awe as a comforting voice found its way into her ears.
She looked toward the sound, finding Shino standing with his arms outstretched, recalling back the nest of beetles.
"S-Shino-kun…" The girl whimpered, feeling relieved by his presence.
"Hinata, I'm sorry I didn't come sooner."
He stepped over toward the shaken girl, as he pulled the blanket back up so she could cover herself.
A tear was forming in her eyes, as she shot a sudden glance toward the pile on the floor.
"Wha…What happened to him…?"
The cloaked boy turned his attention to the twitching boy.
"Hn, those bugs carried a poison in them, paralysing their pray for a certain period of time according to the amount injected"
Hinata stared down at the blonde boy, eyes fixed on the lumps under his skin where the beetles had dug in.
"Once their opponent is paralysed, they feast upon their chakra source. Naruto should wake up within 6 hours, without a single memory of what just happened."
"…Really? He won't remember any of this…?"
The brunette boy nodded In reply.
"So that is the other effect of the poisons…" Hinata muttered questionably.
"No, those bugs don't have the power to erase memory."
Hinata
looked up at her team mate.
"What? But then how…"
"Right now they are feasting only on the boys red chakra."
Hinata
looked back towards the paralysed teen.
The chakra of the Nine
Tailed fox…
"That was not the Naruto we know Hinata, so do not hold any grudge toward him."
The girl was startled by his words, she didn't quite fully understand about the effects of the red chakra…But she nodded in response, knowing that if Shino would hold no grudge, then she definitely couldn't.
Shino was, after all, a genius.
The shock was dimming down and as Shino's focus turned back to Hinata she immediately blushed heavily.
He had just seen her without any clothes on…And yet he acted as though nothing had happened.
Shyly, she began to ask about her other team mate, as she felt her head grow dizzy again.
Shino caught her before hitting her already fragile head against the bars of the bed frame, as she passed out once again from all the events that had occurred.
Lowering her slowly against her pillow, he pulled the blanket back up over her bare chest. Placing a gentle kiss against her forehead, he continued over to place the paralysed Naruto into his own Hospital bed.
It was a good thing he chose to check on the girl when he did. The thought of anyone touching her like that ignited a spark of jealousy at the back of his mind.
Placing himself beside her bed stall, he brushed the feeling off as mere concern for his team mate.
At least, that's what he convinced himself it was.
