Ugh I'm sorry if this sucks, but I really had trouble getting it out as soon as I could...:/ I am probably going to update this one again before I go back to 'Libido' just because it's kind of rushed and I want to get the story to keep going because I cut it off at a crucial part but if I didn't it would keep going...and I want to devote a whole chapter to the next scene. Sorry for the long wait...I'm just super stressed out. Lmao. Reviewing keeps me motivated though :)

Chapter Eleven: Slamming Doors are Never Fun

Hinata had mulled over it all night, to the point of not going to sleep until ten minutes before the alarm went off to start the day.

How would she tell Ryouichi that Sasuke was really his father? That he would now be a part of their life –his life- and would begin to take the roll of his father?

Two weeks ago Ryouichi would have been so happy to have finally found his father but if she knew one thing about her son it was that he was as stubborn as that very man.

He would not accept Uchiha Sasuke as his father.

She had gone home in a stupor after the news had been handed to her and she just couldn't make sense of it all. Sure she knew he was the father of her child since day one, but now that he knew and couldn't deny the proof before them, she didn't know what would happen next.

How would they be able to assimilate him into their life?

Not only that but would he be willing to be a part of it?

Hinata mentally hit herself as she asked herself that. Of course he wouldn't be willing, just like he had made such a huge fuss just to get the paternity test done.

God she already felt light headed just thinking about having to deal with the two stubborn males. She just knew she would have to be the go between and the neutral barrier between her son and his father.

She loved her son and only wanted what was best for him, she didn't know if Sasuke was the right decision for him. He was reckless, rude, brash, stubborn, stoic and all of the things she didn't want her son exposed to.

It was this one thought that kept her up all night.

"Hinata are you okay…?" Kiba asked gently as she sat down next to him and took at deep breath. She turned and smiled at her friend who was presently rushing to finish homework due that day.

"I'm fine Kiba-kun, thank you for a-asking." She blushed and tucked her hair behind her ear. She leaned over to see what he was working on and pointed to one of the questions. "Ano, the answer to number five is B, monocot not xylem."

Kiba rubbed the back of his head in confusion and laughed in embarrassment. "Ah, really…? Thanks…" He moved to correct the error.

"You should do your homework on a regular basis not right b-before c-class." Hinata admonished lightly.

Kiba pouted. "I was having too much fun at the vet clinic. Oh that reminds me!" Kiba reached for his bag and dug around for a few moments before pulling out a piece of paper and handing it to her.

Hinata looked down at it to read before looking to him for an explanation. "It's a party!" He exclaimed happily and Hinata's brows raised. "Well…not really a party it's more like a get together. Just you, me, Tenten and the other losers." Hinata gave him a look at his choice of description but she was met with an eye roll.

"It looks pretty festive for a get together…" Hinata commented as she looked over the pretty yellow paper with balloons and an address printed on its front.

Kiba laughed. "I told Tenten she didn't need to make all this stuff, but it was because she wanted to make sure you would make it. She thought if you had an invitation your parents would let you go." Hinata's spirits fell at the mention of parents. That wasn't why she couldn't go. "So what do you say?"

Hinata gave him a small smile. "I'll try my best." He nodded and went back to his work.

"By the way, Tenten will definitely say something during lunch, just be prepared." Kiba warned Hinata as their classmates filed in for Homeroom.

They both shared a knowing smile.

OoOoOoOoO

It was surprisingly normal, sitting next to Hyuuga Hinata.

If he tuned his mind out it was almost as if everything were fine.

Homeroom went without a hitch. Kurenai passed out papers and the only contact he had had with her was passing the assignment down to her which he did without even looking in her direction.

He guessed he should be thankful she allowed him to live in his little happy bubble where he hadn't been hit with the biggest bombshell of his life. If it had been any other woman he was positive the news would be out and she would be trying to extort something out of him.

Wow I really did choose the perfect girl to impregnate…Sasuke thought dryly to himself as he listened to the announcements for the day.

He had yet to look in her direction and he didn't plan on doing so anytime soon. If he did all he would see was mockery in her eyes. She stood for everything he didn't want to be a part of.

When the bell rang for chemistry Sasuke made an excuse to make a trip to his locker just so that he wouldn't have to get to class early and interact with her. He hated this beating around the bush and hiding from her but he had no other choice.

She held his deepest secrets and for a man who was usually one step ahead of his opponents, he had no experience with the swapping of roles. All he could do was be prisoner to her whim. It was just so frustrating and ironic that she had done absolutely nothing to make him pay. He couldn't pin her down, she was too confusing and did everything he didn't expect her to.

The minute bell rang and he high tailed it to his chemistry class. Though he often took his sweet time to get to class, he didn't think he could deal with another altercation without just imploding on the spot.

Kabuto started off the class with a lecture on acids and bases before relinquishing the reins to his students to continue their labs. Hinata and Sasuke just looked off in different directions, Hinata sitting on a stool on one end of the table and Sasuke standing at the other end.

Oh the woes of being better than average and finishing in advance.

"Sasuke, Hinata." Kabuto called to the motionless lab partners. They both looked up at their teacher. "If you two don't mind could you come help me over here in the storage room?"

"H-hai Kabuto-sensei." Hinata slipped down from her perch and stood stark still three feet from Sasuke, waiting for him to pass before walking behind him at a slower pace, head bowed.

Kabuto, not noticing the awkwardness between the two teens wasted no time in using his prized students. "Okay you two. I would really appreciate it if you," He pointed to Sasuke and handed him masking tape and a sharpie. "Use the masking tape to re-label all of the chemicals and jars in here. Please write down the material, the expiration date and today's date. If something has expired please throw it away." He handed Hinata a pen and clipboard. "You Hinata, please keep inventory. Anything he throws away put it down under 'Restock' and anything he keeps place under 'Inventory'." He looked around to make sure he hadn't missed anything.

His alighted as he remembered something. "Oh! By the way you will be getting extra credit for this." He smiled at his students. "And thank you for doing this."

Sasuke wished he had some sort of a weapon to stab into his brain repeatedly. The sharpie was looking pretty good though it was too blunt to do anything than mark his face.

Hinata stood to the side, blushing prettily and fiddling with the pen cap nervously as Sasuke got down to his knees to start on the first bottle of what seemed to be Hydrogen Peroxide. Reading the label, he taped over it and rewrote the information along with the required information his teacher had asked for.

He didn't bother to tell Hinata anything as he replaced the bottle in its place and withdrew its neighbor.

Hinata bit her lip nervously, trying to peer over his shoulder to see what substance he was working with and what exactly he was doing with it; standing on her tippytoes was proving futile.

Mustering up her courage, Hinata ventured gently, "A-ano Uchiha-san…? I c-can't see w-what you have or w-what you a-are doing with i-it."

She was met with silence.

Embarrassed, Hinata stayed quiet for a while after that, helplessly pulling bottles out of the trashcan next to Sasuke in order to write down what he was throwing away and working as fast as possible to read what he placed back on the shelf before he went for another.

Sasuke was slightly surprised at her actions. She didn't even try to compromise with him on the matter, just did the best she could with his little cooperation. To be honest he was starting to feel kind of guilty as the petite girl continued to reach into the trashcan for bottle after bottle. She was having a hard time but made no motion to voice it.

It seemed she was the type to suffer quietly; taking what life gave her and didn't complain. And honestly from his point of view she was dealt a pretty harsh hand of cards, thought that was mostly his fault.

Sasuke shook his head to himself and quickened his pace. Who was he to feel guilty and catch her a break? She should do her job and he would do his. Uchiha Sasuke did not feel sympathy.

He could feel the nervousness running off her in waves. She really did not want to be in this situation with him, that much was for sure and it didn't help that he was truly the father of her child.

What he would give to be out of that situation.

Ten more bottles and I can get out of this situation. Just ten more bottles, just don't speak a word to me.

"U-Uchiha-san." Sasuke almost threw his hands up in the air in exasperation. Almost. He didn't turn towards her but his head tilted towards her ever so slightly. "A-ano…" Through his peripherals he could see she was scuffing her foot awkwardly and her hands wringed the edge of the clipboard, mussing up the paper beneath them.

Here comes the sob story…she built her confidence up enough to try and win me over.

"Uhm…uh, well…" He wasn't going to help her out and initiate the conversation. She quieted and he breathed an imaginary sigh of relief.

"U-Uchiha-san I'm sorry for w-what you've had to d-deal with t-these p-past few w-weeks!" She suddenly blurted out, and blushing as soon as she realized she did so. Sasuke stiffened.

Quieting profoundly, she continued. "A-ano, I only m-mean to s-say that I d-don't expect y-you to want to have anything t-to do with u-us…." She looked down and Sasuke replaced a bottle. One more… "I j-just wanted to s-say that I would r-respect that a-and I am o-okay with that." Sasuke eyes widened and he almost missed the shelf when he tried to replace the bottle. "I…I don't want to inconvenience you." She looked up at him, a determined expression in her eyes and a small smiled on her lips.

Sasuke stood and swept out of the room, not a word spoken to her in return.

She had done exactly as he had assumed…but she had done it in a totally different aspect than he had thought.

OoOoOoOoO

"Hinata! Hinata!" Kiba and Hinata shared a knowing smile as they made their way to their usual table, their bun-haired friend beckoning exuberantly.

"Hi Tenten-chan, how are you?" Hinata questioned gently, happy to be in the presence of people who liked her.

"Oh don't worry about how I am! So did you get the invitation? Or did Kiba just ruin it again like usual?" She turned to glare daggers at Kiba. Kiba glared back.

"Hey I didn't ruin anything! See if I ever do anything for you again!" He huffed and crossed his arms.

Hinata watched the altercation in front of her and blushed feeling slightly responsible. She pulled out the invitation from her bag. "Kiba-kun didn't ruin anything I promise Tenten-chan!" Kiba shot her a thankful look.

"See Tenten, I demand an apology!" Kiba pointed at Tenten accusingly. She scoffed and waved him off.

"Wait until never."

"What did you say?"

"That you're an idiot!"

"You didn't say that and you take that back!"

"Why should I everyone knows it's true anyways."

"You are the most obnoxious woman I have ever met!"

"That's funny that you would say that after living with your mom…"

"Are you talking about my mother?"

"Maybe I am!"

"Ano guys…?" Hinata called gently.

"What?" The two screamed in her direction and instantly stopped as the realized it was Hinata.

"Oh Hinata-chan I'm so sorry!" Tenten gushed and hugged her friend who seemed to be petrified in her spot.

Kiba rolled his eyes and threw his hands up in the air. "So now you apologize…"

Tenten glared at him again. "Yes! Because it's my Hinata-chan I'm apologizing to!" She hugged Hinata's face to her chest and Hinata gasped at the proximity and blush cherry red.

Kiba chuckled and pointed to the hyperventilating girl. "You probably want to let go of your precious 'Hinata-chan' before you kill her."

"Oh no Hinata-chan!" Tenten shook her friend, forcing her to regain consciousness.

"I'm okay Tenten-chan…" Hinata gulped and smiled stiffly, blushing.

Tenten pretended to wipe sweat off her brow. "Whew!" She turned back to Hinata and fixed her with a look before she whispered. "So did you get it…?"

Hinata looked at her in slight confusion and Kiba cleared his throat. "Oh! Yes Kiba-kun gave me the i-invitation." Hinata rushed to pull it out of her bag to prove the fact.

Tenten clapped her hands and grinned. "Yay! Okay so you can show that to your parents as proof and they'll have to let you come to the party!" Hinata's brows crashed down for a moment and Kiba's eyes searched her face. She had done that earlier too.

Hinata shook her head and looked up at her brunette friend and grinned. "I'll see what I can do."

Tenten cheered and tackled the mousy girl. "That's my girl!"

As their other friends approached the table and conversations floated around her, Hinata could only feel her heart swell with guilt.

There was no possible way she could go to Tenten's get-together. It just wasn't in her ability; she had no parents to beg.

Hinata just tuned into the conversation to hear Tenten exclaim excitedly. "Yeah and Hinata-chan said she could go and we're going to have lots of food and stuff. My parents said we could have the whole house to ourselves! Hinata-chan is going to sleepover and we'll do our make-up and talk about girly things you guys know nothing of an-"

"I s-said I would see what I would do Tenten-chan! I'm still not sure I can go," Deciding not to give her friend false hope, Hinata continued. "To be honest the chances of me being able to go are really really small…"

Tenten looked put out as Hinata voiced the truth and she sighed sadly into her sandwich. "Okay…"

The guys looked at one another, not sure what to do.

"How troublesome…Tenten it'll be fine we'll hang out all of us one of these days. It's not Hinata's fault if her family are tyrants." He clapped her on the back and Tenten coughed at the force. "Sorry…" Shikamaru mumbled.

"We have youth on our side; we have many years to do the hanging out!" Rock Lee added with a fist pump.

Hinata blushed and looked away from the group, feeling terrible. "It's okay if you can't go Hinata-chan, I understand." Tenten voiced and Hinata's head snapped to her friend.

"R-really…?"

Tenten nodded and smiled. "Yeah I was overreacting anyways."

Hinata smiled back at her friend but her eyes caught something behind the brunette and confusion filled her eyes. Seeing the change in her friend's eyes, Tenten turned hesitantly to see what had gotten Hinata's attention.

"H-hey guys…" They halted their conversation and turned to the two girls. "Have you ever seen Tsunade-sama come down for lunch…?" Tenten asked. The guys shook their heads, just as confused at the blond woman's actions. She was standing against a tree presumably talking to a couple of kids that were standing not too far off from them.

But Tsunade's eyes were glued to their table, a smirk on her face as she realized the group had noticed her. She saluted them mockingly.

They all turned around quickly, pretending to be preoccupied with their food. "What if she caught us for doing something wrong?" Kiba hissed quietly.

"I only copied Shino's homework once I swear!" Tenten lamented in a panic.

"I don't believe that's what she's so intrigued about. It seemed like she was watching Hinata." Shino voiced. Hinata's eyes lighted with interest and she turned to sneak a look.

Tsunade pushed away from the base of the tree and began walking at a leisurely pace back to her office. However, as she walked by she turned to Hinata and gave her a smile that only filled her with dread.

OoOoOoOoO

As Hinata stretched for gym, all she could do was think about Tsunade's cryptic smile.

Like usual she was the first girl to get dressed and as such she had nothing better to do but think. God how she wished she was like every other girl…

Naruto and Sasuke walked out of the locker room and stilled upon seeing her. "Hey Hinata-chan!" Naruto started jogging towards her and Hinata looked up from her toe-touching stretch, blushing. Sasuke stayed back for a few moments but then not wanting to stretch alone, rolled his eyes and followed Naruto.

"Do you mind if we stretch with you?" Naruto asked sweetly, a huge smile on his face. Hinata shook her head to say no and with a quick glance to Sasuke, bent over again.

There was an awkward silence, of which Naruto couldn't fathom. "So Hinata-chan, do you know what we're doing in gym today?" Sasuke elbowed him in the gut and Naruto coughed awkwardly, holding his side. Hinata gave them a strange look before answering quietly.

"Y-yeah, we're w-working o-out." Hinata stood and bounced on the balls of her feet a few times, her ponytail bobbing along with her. She pointed to the posters Gai-sensei was taping up all around the room and the different equipment placed underneath them. "We h-have to go t-to our stations and r-rotate around." As soon as she finished explaining Hinata positively ran towards one of the stations and waited for the rest of her class.

Naruto looked to Sasuke in confusion but the dark-haired man just ignored him and took his place at a station. Naruto shrugged and followed.

"Okay class!" Gai-sensei began with a high kick into the splits. "Today we're doing the fabulous 'Stations Workout'! The faster you go the sooner you get to leave!"

The students chattered with excitement at the prospect. "Okay my marvelous students, make me proud!" And the students started on their group stations.

Hinata took this on with reckless abandon; she had the energy to spare.

Why did Tsunade have a sudden fascination with eavesdropping on her students? It wasn't like they had any Intel on the next invasion of Konoha or something…

She went through the fifty reps of the jump rope, then on to chin ups, pushups, anacondas, sprints, weights, the punching bag, wall sits, curls ups, the plank, ultimate Frisbee, and finally extreme volleyball; with a five foot in diameter, rainbow colored volleyball.

After the allotted two turns per station, Hinata ran to the middle of the gym floor and collapsed with fatigue and satisfaction. The workout had done wonders for her buzzing head.

Sasuke grit his teeth as yet again he was beaten by Hinata. It was so frustrating; weren't women who were pregnant supposed to be slow or something?

Sasuke was glued onto her small frame as a courier brought a message to Gai-sensei, who pointed out the shy brunette. Sasuke's eyes narrowed as the boy reached his desired target and handed her a summons to the principal's office. Eyes wide in surprise, Hinata took the message, bowed her thanks to the courier (who blushed to Sasuke's chagrin) and with a quick glance at her surroundings ran off to the locker rooms.

Now Sasuke was starting to get suspicious as he rushed to finish. A call to the office meant only one thing; Tsunade was up to something.

And knowing her, she would destroy his life yet again.

Finally finishing his lap around the gym, Sasuke jogged off to the locker room without so much as a glance to the teacher. He rushed to change and get out before the fan girls started doing creepy things.

Hinata was very apprehensive as she nodded to the secretary and flashed her note before ducking into the waiting room. Heaving a sigh, Hinata turned around and gasped as a smug Tsunade stood in front of her open office door and beckoned her with a finger.

"Come on in Hinata-chan, our guest will be here any minute." She moved out of the way and motioned for Hinata to move in. "Take a seat, will you?" Hinata nodded mutely, head down, and did as she was told.

Right as Tsunade had offered Hinata a drink from her formidable stash, Sasuke burst through the door with a feral growl and promptly sat himself down next to a startled Hinata.

"Whatever you tell her," Sasuke jerked a rude thumb towards the innocent indigo haired girl. "Is not getting past me." He settled himself in his seat and kicked his legs up onto Tsunade's desk, arms crossed defensively.

Tsunade rolled her eyes and shoved Sasuke's legs off the desk and earned a startled yelp from the indignant man. Tsunade sat in their place before he could replace his feet.

"It's good you're here, I was going to call you up as soon as I had prepped Hinata-chan." Sasuke's eyes narrowed and a sneer drew itself across his face.

"I bet you were, I know what the two of you do to connive in ruining my life." He sent a meek Hinata a glare and she seemed to shrivel up under the heated stare.

Tsunade rolled her eyes yet again and waved off his accusations. "Whatever, we're here for Hinata-chan this time." She smiled sweetly and Sasuke was starting to realize why he hated sweets so much. "Hinata-chan I hear you've been invited to Tenten's house tonight is that right?" Hinata looked up from her lap hesitantly and glancing quickly at Sasuke –who was looking everywhere except at her- before nodding towards the ground and blushing.

"So? What the hell does some little 'nobody party' have to do with anything?" Hinata withered away some more.

"It has everything to do with this." Tsunade motioned towards the whole room. "Hinata-chan has had to cancel every other hang out with her friends because she has to always take care of Ryouichi." Sasuke scoffed.

"Get a babysitter or better yet, don't get pregnant." The last part was hissed. Hinata's eyes began to glitter as she raised her hand. Tsunade smiled and nodded towards the shy girl.

"Go ahead Hinata-chan."

"I…uhm, well I d-don't m-mind not g-going out with my f-friends. I l-like taking c-care of Ryouichi…"

Tsunade nodded encouragingly. "That is wonderful Hinata-chan but you're also a teenager and sometimes people need to relax. If adults have a terrible time with it and need a break once in a while to be with other people their age, so do you."

Sasuke smirked and stood, brushing off his pants. "Well you heard her, she likes taking care of the brat, so problem not solved, thank you for wasting my time." He moved to leave like every other time he was in the damned office.

"Sasuke…do you have any…plans tonight?" Sasuke instantly turned around and glared daggers at Tsunade.

"Don't you dare say what I think you're about to say…"

Tsunade smirked and looked at her finger nails demurely. "Think of it as a mission Sasuke, take care of your son for one night, how hard can that be?" Sasuke moved to say something but Tsunade interrupted with a pointed glare in return. "And don't worry, Hinata-chan has covered the first four years."

"T-Tsunade-sama I d-don't think I w-would like to do t-this…" Hinata had her hand raised yet again (quite cutely in all honesty) and for the first time Sasuke looked to her in relief. Maybe she wasn't good for nothing…

"I'm sorry Hinata-chan but he signed the paper and he is now under my control." She picked up the contract laying innocently on her desk and pointed to Sasuke's name in black ink. She shrugged as if she could do nothing in the matter. "Sasuke is going to be taking care of Ryouichi tonight, I'm sorry to you Hinata-chan, but not so much for you Sasuke-tan." Sasuke growled at the cutesy nickname.

Looking between the two of them and deeming the matter done, Tsunade handed Hinata a card. "This is Sasuke's address, drop Ryouichi off there at six and pick him up at eleven." Sasuke opened his mouth to argue his privacy rights but he was shushed as Tsunade talked over him. "I have already called Tenten's parents and confirmed you're attending."

Forcing the two of them out of the door, Tsunade smiled. "And Hinata-chan?" She looked up, seeming startled once again into a stupor. "Do have fun." She turned to the slightly bewildered Sasuke and her smile dropped. "You will take Ryouichi and nothing will happen to him or with the powers invested in me as Hokage, I will strip you of your flesh and feed you to the birds. Goodbye now!"

And with that the door was slammed.

OoOoOoOoO

Hinata was positively shaking as she got Ryouichi home and got him packed to go to his father's house for the evening. She had broken the news to him and he had taken it considerably well, not even batting an eye and just smiling at her cooly.

"That's okay Okaa-san, you deserve to take a break." He had patted her thigh and walked off to get his overnight bag.

A pillow, blanket, marker and coloring book set and newly minted homework later, the two were ready to go. "Wait one moment Ryouichi!" Hinata called as she ran back into the kitchen and produced a juice pouch and snack wrapped in tin foil. With a small smile she tucked it into his bag. "Just in case you get the munchies." She tickled his tummy and he giggled and pushed her hands away.

"Thanks Okaa-san." Ryouichi looked up at her endearingly and Hinata ruffled his hair affectionately as she moved to open the door to leave.

"Of course sweetheart."

"Hello Hyuuga-sama, Uchiha-sama, if you would please come with us to the car, we'll be on our way to Uchiha-sama senior's house."

Hinata and Ryouichi looked to each other in surprise as if to say 'Is this Déjà vu?'. "A-ano…what?" Hinata mumbled impressively.

Tsunade's ANBU hustled the two of them towards the vehicle parked outside. "I'm sorry Hyuuga-sama but if we are to meet the party deadline by seven we need to move now."

Hinata couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the mysteriously clad men (they only brought her bad news and bad luck) but she had more pressing things to worry about.

She had literally stated for the first time (indirectly) that Sasuke was indeed Ryouichi's father and he had not even acknowledged the fact. He had only stated that it would benefit her to take a break and spend time with her friends. How did that make any sense when not too long ago Ryouichi was celebrating the chances of Uchiha Sasuke not being his father?

Hinata watched her son as he looked out the car window and kicked his legs in a presumably happy mood. The son was just as much of an enigma as his father.

She felt like she was suffocating on the very air sustaining her. She hadn't even been able to have a normal conversation with the man and now she was expected to leave her child unattended with him? And what made it worse was that Tsunade had actually felt the need to reinforce Ryouichi's safety with a threat towards said man.

How was that supposed to make her feel better about this….arrangement?

The car jerked to a stop as if to mock her and her predicament. "We have arrived Hyuuga-sama, Uchiha-sama." The door was opened and revealed an opulent neighborhood that rivaled the one of her past. The memories came flooding back and they were not nice to say the least.

As they were led to the front doors of the mansion Hinata and Ryouichi could only look on in awe.

The mansion was made to exude elegance and high aristocracy, holding true with renaissance accents. Never had Hinata seen such a western building (as a house no less) in Japan even in her many years as a rich (albeit shy, awkward, mute) socialite. More like a wallflower…Hinata mused to herself.

The Uchihas' truly were on par with the Hyuugas' before their untimely demise.

Ryouichi and Hinata shared a look as the group made their way past the huge decorative water fountain set in the center of the circular driveway and up the steps to the house. It only seemed to grow in stature.

One of Tsunade's men rang the door bell and then moved back into the same position as the others.

"Are you ready Ryouichi? You can change your mind at any time…" Hinata fluttered over him her heart pounding at a rate she never knew it could.

Ryouichi rolled his eyes and shifted his bag on his shoulder. "I'm fine Okaa-san, it's only a few hours."

The door finally opened and a slightly ruffled Sasuke showed himself.

"Hn." Sasuke nodded towards Tsunade's men who all addressed him respectfully.

"A-ano, here's Ryouichi…I-I am r-really sorry t-to bother you with this…" Hinata seemed to draw strength from her son's gentle pat on her leg. "A-and uhm well, oh!" Hinata dug into her bag and Sasuke rolled his eyes. "I made you this sheet that would help you with anything you would need f-for Ryouichi. See, m-my phone number is right here…" Hinata started to explain every single detail of the three page 'guide' when Sasuke suddenly grabbed Ryouichi and pulled him inside along with the guide.

"Whatever, just be here at eleven." And with that the door was slammed shut.

Sorry it's utter crap but I will work towards fixing it lmao. I'm so tired...Anways as usual comments, concerns, reccommendations are all welcome. Also I've stated this before but I wil again, I understand that Hinata's extreme stuttering is a turn off to many of you, because you're right she isn't that shy BUT I need her stuttering to help develop her relationships with different people and use it to show her comfort levels around different characters. Throughout the story as she gains more confidence in herself and her position in life the stuttering will become nonexistent so just hold out a little bit longer okay? And thank you for all the wonderful reviews they fill me up with happiness...:) This story has had more than two thousand visitors in one month! That's amazing please continue to read, and hopefully review and tell me what you think :) Until Next Time,
