Okay, this one is going to get a little weird, but I think it's going to be better than the last chapter. Enjoy.


Ino looked in shock as her living room was filled with box after box; each box had a label scrawled in permanent marker. "How could she have this much stuff?" Ino thought. Hinata carried in the last box in and set it on the coffee table. "There, that it's. What's wrong? Aren't you happy that I decided to be your roommate?"

"Yeah, I am. It's just that I wished you called me before you came so I could have made room for your stuff."

"Don't worry. It looks like a lot because of the boxes, but it's actually not that bad." Hinata said and opened the box infront of her. "Oh, will you look at that."

"What?" Ino asked as Hinata pulled out what looked like a deck of cards. "What are those?"

"They're Tarot cards. Temari gave them to me on my birthday."

"Are those the cards that can tell the future or something?"

"They sort of do that. They help determine events that will occur and tell things about the person being read. Pretty cool, right?"

"Yeah. Hey, do you think you can read me?"

Hinata start to blush a little. "Well I'm not very good at it and we have so much to put away." Hinata said rubbing her shoulder. Then a look of surprise came over her. "Oh wait, I almost forgot." She pulled out a phone from her pocket. "Ta-da. I hope you like it." Ino looked at the phone and found that it was hers, except it wasn't a broken pile of plasitic and metal on the ground. "Hinata, where did you get this?"

"Well, think of it as a thank you gift for letting me stay here."

"No, I mean Seriously. This is the phone is super expensive. I took me a year before I could afford this thing. This must have cost you a fortune!"

"Actually...I got it for free."

"What?! How?!"

"My father...he kind of runs the company." Hinata said, still with a blush on her face. Ino just stood there, stunned. "So...S-so your father is...Hiashi Hyūga."

"Yes."

"You're the daughter of one of the worlds wealthiest men."

"Yes. Ino what's wrong." Hinata said, concerned about Ino. The blonde stared to sway back and forth.

"SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! What have I gotten my self into. She is gorgeous, cute, sweet, and RICH! I am dreaming. I must be dreaming."

"Ino?"

"This is bad. Real bad. She is WAAAAAAAAY out of my league. What if we start dating? What if I have to meet her parent? What if they don't approve of me dating their daughter? Why am I thinking this far ahead? What if Hinata rejects me?Why doI feel like myheadisspinning?"

*THUD*

"INO?!"

Ino lay motionless on the floor, having blacked out from the stress she had put her brain through. She looked calm and peaceful. Hinata on the other hand was scared out of her mind. "Oh my GOD! What do I do?! Come on Ino, Please Wake Up!" Hinata said trying to shake the blonde out of her deep sleep.

. . .

Ino slowly woke up on a bench. Looking at her surroundings, she saw that she was in a mall, but something was wrong. Walking around, she found herself alone. "Hello?" She said, but got no response except her own echo. The mall was completely empty. All the stores seem open, but no one was in them. She looked around for a while, then she heard a voice.

"Ino."

She knew that voice. That sweet and beautiful voice. Turning around, she saw Sakura the other side of the mall. "Sakura?" Ino said, but the pink haired girl didn't answer. She just stood there, staring at her with cold emotionless eyes. As Ino started walking toward her, Sakura turned around and started walking out a door that wasn't there before. The sound of a church bell began to ring. "Sakura!" Ino yelled. Still no response. The mall around Ino started to collapse as the bells began to ring louder. She started to run to Sakura who now had walked out the mysterious door. The bells continued to ring. "SAKURA!" Still no response.

She ran through the door, only to find herself in a dark abyss. As she tried to turn back, the door vanish. Now in complete darkness, she began to yell over the now deafening bells. "SAKURA! HINATA! SOMEBODY! ANYBODY PLEASE HELP ME!" Ino felt like she had been screaming in the darkness for hours. Then she noticed that the tone of the bells were becoming distorted as they slowed down and lower in pitch. This noise was then replaced by a low growl. As she turned around, Ino saw red eyes staring at her. The creature walked out of the shadows to reveal itself as a black wolf. She started to run and the wolf quickly followed suit. She kept running, but then tripped and began to fall. She thought she would hit solid ground. Instead, she felt like she was in a free fall with the wolf jumping after her. Then she saw a light that illuminated a small pool of water. The pool started to get closer...and closer...and closer. And then-

. . .

Ino opened her eyes as water soaked her face. Hinata had in an effort to wake up Ino filled up a glass with water and splashed it in Ino's face. Her idea had worked as Ino started coughing from the water that had gotten into her mouth. "*cough*What the hell?" Ino said as she sat up on the living room floor. Hinata wrapping her arms around the confused girl. "Ino! Thank God! You scared me half to death! For a second there, I thought I was going to have to preform CPR." Ino couldn't help but develop a small blush. "Um...How long was I out?" Ino asked before Hinata let go of her. "About 5 minutes."

"5 minutes? It felt like an eternity."

"Why, what happened."

"I...I don't know. I had the weirdest dream. Why did I faint in the first place?"

"I told you that my father was Hiashi Hyūga." Ino started to remember and tried her best not to faint again. "Why didn't you tell me he was your father?"

"Because you never asked. Plus people think they have to treat me differently after I tell them. Please don't treat any different than before."

"But you're rich. You could have lived in a mansion or even gone to a fancier school. Why go here?"

"My father asked me the same thing. He always wanted me to go to a fancier college and stay with him, but I wanted to be free and travel and do my own thing. So I...gave him excuses why a smaller college would be better."

"Why not tell him the truth?"

"Well, he is very strict and I didn't want him to get upset. You know how dads are? I am sure your dad is much cooler." Ino began to sulk and propped herself up against her couch. "My father...isn't around any more."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"

"No, it's okay. You didn't know."

"What happened?"

"He was part of the peace corps. He was a kind person who put other people before himself. He was helping to rebuild a village in another country when the government forces of the region went into the village looking for rebel forces. They killed everyone."

"That's horrible." Hinata said. Then Hinata hugged her again, but this time it was a gentler and kinder hug. Ino, feeling thelove and comfort, began to hug her back. "Thank you, Hinata."

"No Problem." Both sat in silence for a while before Ino spoke. "Look at me being a debbie downer. Lets do something fun."

"Um, okay. How about we watch a movie? I've got tons of them."

"Sure, do you like old movies?"

"Yeah, let me see what I've got." Hinata said while walking over to the box that had the word MOVIES written on it and dug through it. "How about the Godfather, it's my favorite movie."

"Mine too. What are you waiting for? Pop it in."

The two girls popped some popcorn and sat on the couch. Half way through the movie, Hinata her hands over her mouth in anticipation and horror. It was the scene where the main character takes revenge on a crooked cop and a rival mob boss for his father's attempted murder.

*BANG*

"EEP!" Hinata screamed before burring herself in Ino's arms. Ino looked down at Hinata who still in shock at what happened. "I-I'm s-sorry. I've watched this movie t-thousands of t-times and I s-still get s-scared from this scene." Ino just smiled and held the frighted girl tight. However, it wasn't the girl she had a crush on that was in her arms or the violent crime movie that captured her attention. Rather, it was the dream she had and trying to understand what it meant.


So that was quite an interesting chapter. Hope you enjoyed it. Please review and I'll see you next time.
