Taking A Hint
AN: Part One...
::
"Where is she?"
It was a pretty vague question, if Kiba could voice his opinion. He had to assume that the Uchiha wasn't talking about any 'she' and the 'she' he was looking for told Kiba not to tell 'him' where 'she' was.
Ah, and he was known for unconditional loyalty.
"'Dunno," shrugged Kiba.
Onyx eyes narrowed. "You don't know? Why?" Sasuke demanded.
Kiba glanced up. "'Cause... I don't," answered the Inuzuka.
"And if you did?"
A toothy grin came to his face. "I wouldn't tell you."
See THIS Sasuke took a deep breath because Old Sasuke would have taken Kiba's last breath. The Uchiha crossed his arms. "And the place she is... is she safe?"
Kiba finished brushing Akamaru and stood. Absently he nodded, "Yeah."
Sasuke turned away without another word. Kiba watched the young man walk away. "It's almost as if he cares," Kiba voiced to Akamaru.
The large dog barked. "Yeah, we shouldn't meddle."
..
A coward. Hinata was a coward but her family didn't need to know that. They simply thought that she was a little homesick. One part of it was true, not too much, but true all the same.
Hinata knew it would only take a matter of time for Sasuke to figure out where she was but that didn't matter because conveniently enough... The Hyuuga Clan had a deeply rooted hatred for the Uchiha.
That was simply good luck.
So even if he did know where she was there was no way an Uchiha was coming through any windows tonight. Not without starting a small war, anyway.
"Is this your old room?"
All colored drained from her body seeing floating crimson eyes coming out the shadows also revealing Sasuke attached to them.
"You can't b-be in here!" She told him nervously. What part of all seeing eyes did this man not understand.
"Oh?" Sasuke crossed his arms. "Why?" He pressed.
"I knew I smelt something rotten." Turning their attention to the door stood, Hanabi Hyuuga with a deep scowl on her face. "And it was an Uchiha."
Sasuke didn't reply. He was not the one to argue with children instead he turned his attention back to the heiress. "Why are you avoiding me?"
Hinata couldn't form whole words so Hanabi took her place. "Because you are an Uchiha. Father would be furious to find out she even associates with the likes of you."
Sasuke rubbed his temples. "Who is this child, Hinata?"
"Child!" Hanabi shouted. "How dare you, filthy scum!"
"If the shoe fits," Sasuke shrugged. Hanabi snarled at the Uchiha who gave the younger Hyuuga a smug smirk.
Hinata clenched her fist. "P-please stop."
Hanabi marched fearlessly to Sasuke. "I'll wipe that stupid grin from your face, Uchiha."
Sasuke leaned forward and tapped his jaw. "Try it."
Hanabi pulled back her fist. "Uc-"
"Hanabi stop," Hinata whipped her head to the door seeing her father fixing his sleeve calmly. Hiashi shook his head. "That is no way to treat a guest."
"But father, he is trespassing!"
Hinata had a very bad feeling about the coolness her father was showing. "Fath-" her words were cut off by the veins protruding from Hiashi's eyes.
"Uchiha Sasuke," he started calmly. "Prepare yourself." With that Hiashi attacked the Uchiha.

Hinata couldn't believe they, mostly Sasuke, put a huge hole in her wall. The young heiress covered her face and groaned waiting outside her father's office.
Hanabi leaned against the opposite wall. "Why are you dating that scum?"
Hinata peeked through her fingers. "Because," then a frown formed. "He isn't s-scum and I'm n-not d-dating him."
The youngest Hyuuga scoffed. "Whatever. Konohamaru said he heard from Naruto who got it directly from that Uchiha's mouth."
"I'm your sister," was all Hinata had left to say. While using the Byakugan in the house was prohibited for privacy reasons that didn't spot the girls from eavesdropping.
Much to Hinata's surprise and fear, Sasuke was sitting in front of her father and her father, Hiashi Hyuuga, the leader of one of the most traditional clans in Konoha was...
...shaking hands with him. Sasuke Uchiha, the enemy.
Hinata covered her mouth as her sister giggled behind her. "Interesting, huh, Hinata-Chan?" Hanabi teased before running the hall.
Hinata shook her head. No! There was no way her father would agree to give her away to the Uchiha! Right? Right! Not a moment to spare, she ran inside.
AN: Oooo, Cliffhanger! Dun, dun, dun.
