Love & Reverie 07

Hinata nodded goodbye left for school. Yesterday's happening she only hoped she could just erased it from her mind or whatsoever. Of course she wasn't like going crazy over the kiss like one over obsessed fan girl (though she kinda admitted that she was nearly an over obsessed fan) or simply just giving him the 'what the hell was that for' face. She did what all girls would do if strangers (even if he was a superstar) kissed them in public. A slap, a stomp on the feet and "what the hell was that for?!". She wasn't much of an attention person but that really attracted many attention.
"Hinata,"
She looked around and found the younger Uchiha standing beside her. Not to be rude, she pulled one of her earpiece out and greeted him with a nod.
"Going to school?"
She cocked her brow and shook her head "no, I'm going to hell."
He chuckled and continued "anyway, I heard from Naruto that you met my brother yesterday."
So, he learnt about what had happened yesterday? Naruto mentioned it that it would be war between the Uchihas but she knew it wouldn't be like war where they started building cement walls and prepare grenades and machine guns or so. For a millisecond, she hoped those wouldn't really happen.
"Anything happen?"
Hinata shrugged "didn't Naruto tell you everything?"
"He called me to ask you."
"Itachi is a jerk. He ki—" she stopped. It wouldn't be good to have war in Konoha between the brothers and what most to have her to be the cause of it. Shrugging her shoulders, she continued. "He's a jerk."
"What did he do?"
"Nothing." She said with the thought of him kissing her in the lips appeared in her mind "he's just a jerk."
"It's kinda good to know that you hate him." He smirked "at least, I don't have to worry that I've a competitor."
"What makes you think that he would definitely go after me?"
"He's always taking things I wanted away from me."
She sighed softly as the train arrived. She didn't really like the fact that the Uchihas were giving her so much trouble. Trouble as in trouble like troublesome stuff. She hated it.
"I may have a liking for Naruto." She said out of a sudden.
Maybe telling him that she has someone in mind would make him stop pestering her.
Sasuke looked at her, askew. "As in that loud idiotic blonde who never stops talking?"
"Yes, that loud idiotic blonde who never stops talking." Hinata nodded her head.
"What? Are you serious about this?"
Hinata shrugged "my stop is here. Why do you think?
A series of vibration caused her to give in. She grabbed the phone beside her while focussing on the soap opera she and her little sister were watching. She hated it when someone just ruined their sisters time.
Hey, what are you doing?
Can we meet again some other time?
You serious about him?
Hinata sighed as she threw her phone aside. Apparently her idea of making him stop pestering her failed and instead of getting what she wanted, it was the opposite. He pestered her even more than usual.
"Who's that?" Hanabi quizzed.
"Someone."
"Your boyfriend?"
"Hell no." Hinata snapped.
"I suggest you to reply him or he will probably go on moody. That hot kind that delivered the envelope, right?"
Hinata shrugged and signaled her sister to watch the opera.
"He's a good catch. He's hot, Hinata. It's hard for a hot guy to woo someone like you so you better cease this golden opportunity."
"Golden opportunity?" Hinata giggled softly "and what the hell does it mean by someone like me?"
"Text him."
"Maybe later." Hinata drawled.
"Oh pyou better do. Or he will probably be so sad. Like really really sad. Like really really really really—"
"Alright, I get it. I'll text him now."
Texting that guy was a chore. She probably just got herself even more trouble by telling that guy that she had a liking for Naruto. Maybe someone else would help a little. Like saying she liked someone he doesn't know. Blamed it all on herself for saying that loud blonde's name.
Hey.
I thought you won't reply me.
Well, she was thinking of that but apparently she had someone who wouldn't stop saying how miserable his life would be without her reply. Not like he was going to die or something.
What's the thing?
Just wondering. Didn't read my previous message?
She never thought that one day she would be having troubles replying messages. Due to 'I have exactly no idea how to reply your question because whatever I've done, you shouldn't know cause it would ruin my plan'. Though her plan was pretty ruined— not really. It was ruin in the first place at all. It just didn't turn out the way she expected it would be.
I said maybe.
So you don't really have a thing for that dobe?
Maybe. Maybe not.
He did not reply afterwards and for that, Hinata realized that she was getting worried. Worried as in she was worried that he might go up to that Naruto and start bashing him up. Reason why he did that and why Naruto would get bruises all over was because of her. No good.
Look, Love can't be forced alright?
It was about ten minutes. No reply, no call. A call? Yea, maybe a call might help. She dialed for his number and just as she was about to press on that call button, a wave of vibration stopped her.
Yea. I get it. I'm not that stupid to bash him up.
Did he install some devices or chips into her mind that whatever she was thinking he would be able to know?
Good to hear.
I like you.
And small smile appeared on her face as she read that message she received.
"Wait what? So you tell him that you like me?!" Naruto exclaimed, standing up from his seat.
Hinata sighed and looked down, avoiding those stares they were receiving. She was walking down the street market, hoping to get some really cheap groceries and then she bumped into that blonde dude. It was like as if she and him was more fated compare to she and that Sasuke. She thought of just waving and walked off. However, no. He insisted to treat her to some drinks and even though with her rejections, he practically dragged her to a cafe.
"I said its a 'maybe' thing."
He sat down and smirked "so what did you see in me?"
Hinata shrugged "at least you're way more cheerful that him."
"Oh, so you like guys of my type?" He quizzed as he took a sip of his cold New Zealand berry tea.
She shrugged "it depends. I've no idea too."
"Such a coincidence!"
Both of them raised their heads and Naruto's eyes twitched a little the moment when he realized that his beat friend was actually, in some way giving him death glares which only he was able to notice it.
"Hey," Hinata greeted "it's not a coincidence. I saw you out there eyeing us ever since I sat down."
"Wait, so you're stalking us?" Naruto quizzed, cocking his brow "Uchiha rarely stalks. They do it openly."
"Shut up dobe," he said nonchalantly "so why are you two here?"
"Oh, just some chilling—"
"Just some chilling dates session." Hinata interrupted. Totally cutting Naruto off.
"Date?"
"Yes, date."
"Actually, not exactly a—" Naruto shut himself after receiving a strong kick by that blue head.
"So you guys are dating?"
"No." Hinata replied.
Two guys opened their eyes a little as they stared at the bluenette as she chewed on her straw. Both of them wasn't really expecting a no from her.
"No?" That stoic boy asked.
"Just session when we get to know more about each other."
"Yea!" Naruto nodded his head in agreement "getting to know each other!" That reason was definitely a good way to escape being killed by his best friend.
"Are you free now?" Sasuke asked.
"Oh, you mean me?"
"Not you dobe, I meant by Hinata."
Hinata shook her head "on a date with Naruto."
"Drop that word 'date', will you?" Sasuke said, breathing out and blowing his fringe.
"Alright."
"I guess I've to go now." Naruto stood up and pulled out a sum of money from his wallet and placed it on the table "my treat! See you next time, Hinata."
"See you."
There was minutes of silence after Naruto left. None of them talked. The silence wasn't really awkward but it was definitely piercing despite the fact that they were in a cafe with talking surrounded them.
He broke the silence.
"I really like you."
She looked at him from the corner of her eyes and closed it after a few seconds. "Why?" She questioned.
He was speechless. She knew he would be.
"Is there a need for a reason why I like you?"
Is there a need? Hinata thought.
