A/n: Sry that it took me so long to make this but it wasn't easy. I hope you enjoy this. I had to rewrite this twice before I was even remotely satisfied. Lol, anyway enjoy. Oh yea and if you think it's lame please don't give me a review saying that, I already know that!
AT BIRTH
Lord Hyuuga smiled. It should have bothered him but.. it didn't. Since he had found out about his wife's pregnancy he had wanted a son, but instead his wife gave him a daughter. At first he was angry but then when he looked into his newborn's eyes he smiled. So what if the baby was a girl? The baby was his, and as long as the baby was his nothing else mattered. If he never got a son he could care less. His nephew could be his heir for all he cared.
He smiled as the baby yawned and gave him a curios look with her white eyes. Beside him his wife smiled. "She's beautiful isn't she?"
Lord Hyuuga glanced at his wife and nodded. "Yes, she is…..she'll be a lovely lady when she is older."
The wife's face scrunched in worry. "Your not mad that she is a girl?" She watched him shake his head. She smiled. "Good… I have a feeling that she will be a wonderful daughter…. What shall we name her?"
Lord Hyuuga gazed at his daughter who was currently starting to fall asleep. "Let's call her… Hinata…" He paused and then grinned. "Yes… Hyuuga Hinata..my daughter…." He glanced at his wife and then leanded down to kiss her forehead smiling. "Thank you for our daughter.." The wife smiled.
On the other side the Lord Hyuuga's arch rival/ enemy took hold of his newborn son. He grinned then held his son up. Misty eyed he turned to look at his wife, "Thank you for our son…" She smiled. The baby gurgled and then grasped his father's fingers in a tight grip. "He's strong. He'll be a fine leader and warrior I'll bet." He laughed when the baby opened his large blue eyes and grinned at his father. "He'll be quite a handsome little charmer too."
The mother laughed as the baby grinned even wider as if understanding what his father said. Then she paused and gasped. On her son's arm was a weird smudge. A birth mark that looked like a spiral. "Yondaime… look!"
The father looked down, his eyes furrowed. He looked back up at his son, "So.. you already have a bride hand picked for you eh?" He sighed, "Well… oh well… you'll be happy.. just good luck finding her." He laughed as the baby made a grab for his hair. "Lively huh? Hmm… how about we call you ….. Naruto?"
The mother smiled, "Yes I like it… Uzumaki Naruto…."
10 YRS LATER
Hinata sat in a corner as her family and friends glared at her. She looked down terrified. Did she do something wrong? She flinched as her former aunt gave her a lethal glare and mouthed, "Traitor…"
Lord Hyuuga came out roaring. "NO! THIS CANNOT BE! NO DAUGHTER OF MINE COULD EVER BE A FILTHY UZUMAKI BRIDE!"
Hinata flinched. Her father looked REALLY angry. She trembled when his wrathful eyes turned to her. He snarled. "I have no choice… but know this Hinata…. Because of your markings you are a traitor of your family… you may thank your husband for that,(he spat when he said the word) you are now worthless….." He walked away. His wife ran after him crying. She shook and turned to see her cousin and her sister giving her looks of pity mixed with hurt. Her sister sobbed, "You betrayed us.,…" Her sister and cousin Neji walked off.
Hinata looked down and began to cry. No. This could not be happening. This had to be the worst day of her life.
On the other side, Naruto grinned. This had to be the happiest day of his life. He had a bride! He had found his bride! He jumped up and down. He grinned and saw his best friends walk down the hall. "SHIKI! GUESS WHAT! I HAVE A BRIDE! HELL YEA!"
His best friend Nara Shikamaru snorted. "Yea I heard you the first time loud mouth… guess what? I have a bride too."
Naruto grinned, "REALLY? AWESOME! LETS HAVE A DOUBLE WEDDING?"
Shikamaru gave him a look, "Hell… no….. it's bad enough that I'm to marry a loud mouth, I don't want to marry a loud mouth WITH a loud mouth!"
Naruto cocked his head, "How do you know that your bride is a loud mouth?"
Shikamaru sighed, "Cause the guy who informed my family of my bride warned me that she was a loud mouth."
Naruto made a "OHHHhhhhh" sound as Shikamaru kept muttering, "How troublesome…." Then watched as his friend Naruto continued to jump up and down shouting and grinning.
5 YRS LATER
Hinata sat stiffly in a corner as she watched her family give her the usual silent treatment. They were all celebrating the fact that her cousin Neji now had a marked bride of his own. She sighed. While they were celebrating they were punishing her. It was her birthday and as usual they didn't celebrate it or anything.
Walking into the court yard as the celebration's kept up she sighed. She would have cried but now.. she forgot how. She had spent so many nights crying that she was practically numb. She pauded when she saw a shadow under the canopy. She smiled when she noted that it was Neji best friend Uchiha Sasuke.
"Hello Sasuke- san." She smiled at him. He smiled back.
"How are you?"
Sasuke grunted and muttered, "Happy birthday…" She gasped. He remembered? He frowned, "If your thinking that I forgot the answer is no…."
Hinata smiled, "Thank you…" She grinned inwardly. Even though Sasuke could act cold and mean, she had never known him to be anything but nice. The trick was to not annoy him. "So what are you doing out here?"
He sighed, "Nothing… I hate crowds… and…." He looked down sadly, his eyes looking far away and pained.
Hinata looked down as mentally smacked herself. How could she forget! Sasuke had a marked bride too, but then… she died. "I'm sorry.. I .. I forgot…."
Sasuke shook his head, "Forget about it..it was a long time ago….Just be happy that your groom is alive…"
Hinata's nose twitched, "I wish he wasn't … bastard…." She blushed when Sasuke raised a brow at her. She giggled.
"Sasuke!" They both turned to see a blond girl in view. Sasuke groaned and nodded to Hinata before disappearing. Hinata chuckled as Ino whined loudly, "Sasuke- kun!"
On the other side Naruto yelped as a large tree branch crashed to the ground in front of Naruto barely missing him. Behind him Shikamaru chuckled, "I guess someone was wishing you were dead Naruto.."
Naruto scowled.
PRESENT: 2 DAYS BEFORE THE WEDDING!
Hinata sighed and wondered around. She crept into the courtyard and then to the family vault. She paused when she heard her sister's familiar squeal.
"Oh mom! This is beautiful! But are you sure? I had heard you say before that you'd give this to Hinata on her wedding day!" Her sister rang out.
"I would but… she's a Uzumaki bride… a bride to our families enemy… how could I give our family heirloom to a traitor..?"
Hinata's eyes popped. Her eyes stung, blinding her to her surroundings. She ran off crying. Running until she had reached a clearing. Where was she? She panicked, crap. She hadn't meant to run THAT far!
She looked around wildly realizing that she was utterly lost! She twirled and scanned until finally she fell to the floor crying bitterly. Why her? Why was this happening to her? She rocked back and forth, hugging her knees.
A sweet melody found it's way to her ears. She paused. Her head swept up, was someone there? She crept up and looked over the clearing's ledge. Looking down she saw a girl standing over a grave. The girl appeared to have pink hair. But that was impossible, right?
The girl's voice rose and went under with the wind until Hinata swore that it was the wind singing to her.
"In the gloaming Oh my darling
When the lights are soft and low
And the quiet shadows are falling
Softly come and softly go"
Hinata closed her eyes and leaned back. The wind swarmed around her, hugging her in it's cool arms.
"When the trees are sobbing faintly
With a gently unknown woe, will ye think of me and love me?
As you did once long ago"
Hinata opened one eye and saw the girl raise her arms as if hugging the wind.
"In the gloaming oh my darling
Weep nor bitterly of me
Though I passed away in silence left you lonely, set you free
For my heart was tossing with longing
What had been could never be, it was best to leave ya thus dear
Best for ye and best for me."
Hinata watched as the girl dress floated around her. She leaned back again and closed her eyes, letting the music put her to sleep. She wanted to sleep, badly did she want to.
"In the gloaming oh my darling
When the lights are soft and low
Will ye think of me and love me
As ye did once long ago?"
Naruto walked up to a clearing he had found a while ago. It was a beautiful place. Whe all the sudden he hissed in pain as his arm began to burn. He yanked his sleeves up as the stinging pain began to throb and glow. He looked around.
Climbing over a rock he spotted an adorable young woman with dark hair. He looked at her arm that was hanging out leisurely and smirked. From the looks of it, he had just found his bride.
Reaching down he gently hauled her into his arms, smiling when she cuddled his chest.
Hinata awoke later to the feel of warmth as if she was being hugged. God how she missed being hugged. She cuddled that warmth a little longer only to find that the 'warmth' moved. She shot up and looked down to see a golden Adonis. He had to be a Adonis, he was too good looking not to be. When he opened his eyes and smiled at her, her breath hitched. He had cerulean blue eyes. Eyes of her favorite color.
She reached over and cuddled his cheek with her hand. She blushed when his eyes darkened. She knew, without even him telling him his name she knew. He had to be Uzumaki Naruto. The one who had made he life a living hell, the one who turned his family against her. The only one who could she ever love, the only one who could make her feel the way she did. She smiled. "Oi Naruto.." She snuggled into him, so this is what the council had meant when they had said that when she'd meet her groom she'd instantly love him. For once those stuck up men were right, one look and she did fall for him. Oh well…..
Day of the wedding……
Lord Hyuuga gaped, his daughter in whom had gone missing, is now at her wedding refusing to let him in! He scowled. "Well tell her this…. She is now MY ENEMY!" He snarled and stomped off with his glaring nephew. From behind the door Hinata sighed and crumpled into Naruto's arms crying. She hoped that one day her family would forgive her.
A/N: Yes the girl who had sung was Sakura…. No this is not over. The next stary ties into this one. It's Neji's story, it will explain what happened on Hinata's wedding day. Sry if it seemed a bit rushed but her, If I didn't move it along the way I did you'd have a 27 chaps biography on Hinata life! Lol. And my hand still hurts so this is about as much as I can type. Sry. I'll try to do better, promise! oh and please don't forget to review! thanx!
