Chapter 10
It's all over?
The next morning while hinata stayed at home, a council meeting took place. In the tower Temari, Baki, Gaara and other men attended.
"I learned that Matsuri is pregnant with Gaara's child. I beg of you council to force my brother to marry her. He stated he does not lover her, and doesn't want to marry her. He should marry her for the child itself and as a kazekage."
The council men huddled in a circle the whispered in a low tone so no could hear them.
"It would be a bad reputation for are village" council man 1
"Yes indeed, he should take action what he did" council man 2
"If he doesn't, other villages make take the advantage and still the baby" council man 3
"I agree with you"council man 4
"I say well" council man5
Baki protested all them "I disagree, he doesn't not love her, I hear he is willing to be there for the baby but not marry the mother. There are people in the village who are divorce or a single parent. "
Council man 1 counted the votes. "5 over rules 1, Baki" the council men took to Temari and gaara. "We the council men voted 5 out of 1….Gaara marries, in three days you'll marry"
In three days Gaara marriage was held on the roof of the tower of the kazekage's. Hinata and Karin watched from the door leading to the roof.
"What do you want, Hinata. Why are we here? To torturing you self watching that jerk get married? " Karin was curious that why her and Hinata where watching the question.
"No"
Then it hit Karin it's like all corny book of love "Oh! I get it!" Karin smiled at hinata "You're going to break into the ceremony like a corny part of a book"
"N-No" Hinata wanted to but didn't want to be a copy cat "I just want to see If my wish comes true."
"Which? What do you mean hinata?" their attention went back to the marriage.
"I ask you, Matsuri are you here freely, without being forced to marry Gaara?" Council man 1 asked Matsuri.
She quickly answered the council man "Yes I am"
Council man 1 asked Gaara the same question "Gaara are you here freely, without being forced to marry Matsuri?"
He hesitated for a long moment before answering his question "Yes. I am."
Hinata attention went back to Karin, as tears feel from her white eyes. "It's truly is over now." She took a breath to calm down "Gaara is matsuri's husband, he not mines anymore."
Karin felt sorry for hinata and then she realized why their where here "Please don't, tell me you where hoping he wasn't going to go through it"
"Yes, I was" her tears still falling she paused "I was hoping for a miracle. I hoped he would back out at the last minute"
"If he did would you take him back, after what he did and how he treated you" Hinata knew she was talking about Gaara's cheating.
Hinata took a big breath once again. "I know it's ridiculous, but…when you love deeply as I love him, you can't think clearly, you can only feel" they quickly walked off before the couple could see them.
After the signing of the marriage scroll, Masturi kissed gaara to show he was all her's. He pushed her away, and walked her through the door. He quickly left her so he could go back to his office. He did paper work until he couldn't no more. It was night, he had to go to sleep well at least try. He walked into his bedroom and laid on his bed. His eyes moved to Matsuri coming out form the bathroom in a short black night gown. She calmed into bed with him and cupped his cheek "Kiss me" Gaara turned his head before she could kiss him on the lips. "I'm dying to make passionate Love to you tonight."
"Matsuri…"he got up from the bed and grabbed closed "You managed to marry me. I hope that's enough, because you won't get anything else." entered the bathroom and locked the door behind him, so he could take shower. Once he finished he slept in the guest room.
The next morning he woke up earlier then usual to escape his so called wife. He got dress quick and sneaked out of the room to see Karin and his brother. He was shocked, here was a man who believes in one love and stay true, the one who also bugged him to marry Masturi.
Later that night, Karin and Hinata where talking
"But I have to take care of my future. I've suffered all my life, now it's time to have everything."
"You're wrong" hinata wanted to get through her friends mind.
"Listen. Please, listen. Stop giving advice….Because you've just showed, you know nothing about life. " her rage bubbled inside her, and she burst out, lashing out at hinata . she pointed to hinata from across the room "That's why Gaara left you." She then moved her hand to her lips "You have no experience, so you better shut up." She made a turning motion like a key, so hinata could shut her trap.
"Well, maybe you're right." hinata felt hurt but didn't want to give up yet. "Im inexperienced, but I have a clear conscience. Because I have nothing to hide of feel ashamed of. On top of that I haven't hurt anyone. "she paused before here bubble burst she took a big breath ad exhaled "you know what we all need to calm down were just worried. "
Karin understood Hinata's point. "Fine, I do so." She heard a knock at the door. "BUT STOP GIVING ME A LIFE LESSON YOU AND THE OTHER ONE! Im sick of it" she pointed down the hall then moved to the door to open it. "What are you doing here?"
A tall blonde four peony tailed woman walked into the apartment unwanted and trespassing. "You damn Tramp!" she yelled from her lungs.
Hinata realized who the woman was, it was her. "Temari Please"
Temari didn't want to calm down. She was blinded by rage, she refused to listen to the two tramps "You're both are…..Gold diggers!" she paused and her eyes where only on Karin. "You slut, gold digger, tramp" her eyes glared back to Hinata at the table walking over to her friend. "I suppose it was you who introduced them?"
"You're dead wrong. I had nothing to do with this" Hinata know she wasn't to blame. As long as she know she did nothing wrong, and had no hand in Karin doing, she was still a honest woman.
Temari hated this indigo haired woman. Her eyes flared with fire, from the intense rage in her heart "Shut you moth ungrateful girl. You not only want to catch my little brother but you encouraged your friend to go after my other brother. You are nothing and…"
Karin cut her off before Temari could degrade hinata "Don't, Hinata has nothing to do with this."
Temari's right hand found Karin's right check. With one slap Karin shut her trap. "Shut up. You both have ruined my bothers life! And you both will pay!" Temari made her way to the door and slammed it.
Hinata didn't want to do this but she had to Karin had so many chances to change but never did. "Pack your bags Karin; you will always be the same. Get out" If Karin continued down the same path she couldn't risk her unborn baby's life.
"Where would I go?" Karin was shocked her was her so called friend. Her best friend, a mother to be and she was kicking her out.
Hinata didn't want to sound cold and heartless but she had no choice. "You should have thought of that. Before sleeping with Kankuro who you knew he had a girl friend." He look was compassionate, yet detached and dim. "Im sorry, Karin"
After Karin had left the apartment for good. It was only Hinata and her little miracle in the apartment, Saya was out on a mission in Konoha and spends time with kiba. It was 11 at night when she heard a knocking at the door. She was surprised to the person at the door. she let in the figure into her the living room.
After some time discussing….
"Swear everything happened as I am telling you" "That night, I was dunk and kind of jealous for all the attention you where getting. I went to my room, lied down in my bed and then you came in. or at least I thought it was you. We were intimate; it wasn't until the following morning I realized it was Matsuri"
"So why did you marry her, there are panty of single mothers or mothers to be"
"The doctor told me if I didn't keep her calm, she might lose the baby. My mistake was not being honest with you and running away from the truth, I accepted it. But I never thought Matsuri would get pregnant. That's where my sister bothered me to marry her, she always wanted us together. "
"I know, she always wanted Matsuri to be your wife."
"I swear, I opposed to the marriage, even Baki tried to help. Like I said it was the baby who tied me down. You believe me right?
"Yes, I do believe me .I can see the honesty in your eyes. "
"I never stopped loving you, Hinata."
"Me neither, Gaara. But what can we do?"
"I told so many people I don't love Matsuri, I don't. Once the baby is born…I'll give it my name(Sabaku no), I'll support it in every way. It will always count on its father…But I'm going to leave her" she paused so hinata could soak up the answer "I won't give up on are relationship, I love you with all my heart, you have to understand?"
"I do understand. I feel the same way. I love you Gaara…I never stopped loving you. But what's going to happen to us?"
"What I told you, once the Baby comes, I'll divorce Matsuri. We will get married"
She was happy with his answer and that he never stopped thinking of her nor loving her. "Well maybe I have a surprise for you" she paused at what would come next "One, that I'm sure is going to make you happy"
"Hinata, being by your side is enough to make me happy"
She loved him so much, but right now wasn't the time to give him the news "Will you love me forever?"
Without hesitation gaara answered her question with honesty "To eternity"
To the answered hinata hugged him and kissed him. Their feeling go the best of them, he was on top of her on the long couch, they mad love.
That night Karin spent the night with her former team mate, in his apartment. Karin didn't want to sleep on the floor or the couch but in a bed. She used her body to get into her team mates bed. it was 11 am she took a shower and got ready once she was done she packed her bag once more. she was going though his stuff when Karin heard the door opening and closing. She made sure everything was the same. She hear to people talking.
"I'm not as stupid as Gaara, who can be easily deceived" the man's voices was annoyed and yet calm
The woman's voice was familiar "Suigetsu, I need your help. I can't keep living there."
"What do you want me to do?" he paused at her pleading. "Matsuri, you have to be where your husband is."
"No! I wish I'd never married him. I can't stand him! And it was your entire fault."
"My fault?"
"Yes, it's your fault! Had you taken care of our baby, I wouldn't have needed to say it was Gaara's baby, and married him."
"Wait! You married him for your own convenience and I'm very proud, you couldn't find a better father for our baby"
"Either you help me, or you'll never see me again."
"Hey, Hold on, Wait"
"No, No, No"
"Come here! You know you can't live without me."Karin could hear soft moans from where she was hiding and hearing them. "You need my touch, my kisses"
Karin had a plain. She walked out of her spot quietly when she was near the two lover birds s she cough softly "Am I interrupting something?"
Suigetsu quickly took his hands and lips off Matsuri "What are you doing here? Weren't you looking for another place? Or another job? "
"I was, but it won't be necessary. With the money you're going to pay me, I won't need a job for a very long time."
Suigetsu was surprised to hear those words form Karin's mouth "What do you mean, Karin?"
She felt sorry for her former team mate but at the same time happy "I know we use to be teammate's Suigetsu, but I want the money you'll pay me to keep my mouth shut. Not telling Gaara you're cheating on him and you're not caring his child."
Matsuri was in the hole now but she didn't think any one would believe her. "You think he'll believe his brothers lover?"
"At least, he'll wonder and it's so easy to prove."
Suigetsu had no part in this discussion "I won't give you a penny, Karin….Its matsuri's business. He looked to Matsuri "Come over here to fix your problem"
Matsuri was mad at Suigetsu, she didn't want to help her out. "You're such an idiot!"
"Yes, he is...But he has to pay me too."
"Me? I can give a rats ass, if the kazekage finds out the truth or not."
"Yes, you…Im not talking about that, I found some interesting letters…Gaara wood surely like to know. You really didn't want me in your bed, but used me. You didn't pay me a single penny, well, no you'll pay much more."
Matsuri was fed up with this woman in fount of her. "No, where not giving you anything."
"Fine, I'll go find Gaara and Kankuro"
Suigetsu didn't want his business (plot) found out before it began. "Wait…. You'll get what you want ….but tomorrow we have no money here"
"Fine, meet me in the desert on the way to Konoha and thank you for taking me in. " she kissed Suigetsu on the cheek before she made it to the door she gave a mean look to Matsuri "Chow"
Once the door closed behind Karin and her bags, matsuri was worried "I don't have that kind of money"
"There are still one way shut her trap"
