Hey Loves! I have a nice looong Chapter for you guys and girls! Enjoy ^_^!
Hinata didn't know exactly what to do. She supposed she should tell Sasuke right away but then he would start being over protective of her and she couldn't have that, not now when she knew she had business to take care of.
She came out of the bathroom and went back to the room she left Sasuke in but he wasn't there. She went back out to the roof to find him sitting on the edge overlooking the city. She sat next to him with her knee up to her chest. They sat in silence for a little until he broke it.
"I'm Sorry." Sasuke said simply. He didn't look at her or move when he said it. Hinata looked at him caught off guard by his sudden apology.
"What are you apologizing for?" Hinata asked knowing he was saying sorry for the things he said to her before.
"I'm sorry for leaving you everyday without telling you where I was going, I'm sorry for not answering your questions and being closed and cold sometimes and I'm so sorry for saying the things I said to you before." Hinata knew it was hard for Sasuke to apologize for everything the way he did. Her mind eased a bit to know at least they were o.k.
"Sasuke I'm sorry for what I said to you too. We were both wrong, don't worry about it." Hinata reached her hand out and touched Sasuke's arm.
"I think I owe you an explanation….about Itachi." Hinata herd the anger and pain in his voice when he said his name.
"Sasuke you don't have to-"
"Yes I do. You deserve to know" Sasuke cut Hinata's sentence. Even though she could only see the side of his face Hinata could see how hard this was for him. She turned her body towards him and sat on her knees. She held both her hands out to him. "Give me your hands." Hinata said. Sasuke looked at her with confusion at first but did it anyway.
Hinata closed her eyes and saw the scene she saw before of the day Itachi left. But she also saw later on after he left how Sasuke had a hard time growing up missing his brother. He fought more often, and his parents argued more.
It was starting to get blurry so she put one hand on his forehead and it became clear again.
She saw an image of Sasuke's Mother, she loved him very much and Sasuke loved her too but he was unable to show her that love because his father was so hard on him about being tough and not showing weakness.
The day of his mother's funeral he had to sneak away and cry because if his father caught him then he would be punished. As Sasuke got older he became more accustomed to not showing his emotions and now his father eased up a lot on him because of his old age.
The images disappeared and Hinata opened her eyes and there were tears flowing down her face. Sasuke knew she had seen everything he was going to tell her and was upset for him. He grabbed her by the back of her neck and pulled her into his chest.
Hinata was a little overwhelmed with emotions. She composed herself and Sasuke let her go. They sat there talking about it and Hinata just listened. She thought it was good for him to get it off his chest finally. He told her everything including why he thought Itachi was the one who took her.
"I never confirmed the real reason he left, I thought he came back to test me on how strong I am. I'm just glad you're okay." Sasuke paused for a minute then Hinata saw something dark overcome his eyes.
"I wish I could see my mother again. Just to make sure she knew I loved her, thanks to my father I'm not quite sure she knew."
"Sasuke I'm sure your mother knew your loved her. You were just a child, you didn't know any better."
"It doesn't matter now. That's why I don't want to ever have children." That comment sent a sharp pain in Hinata's chest.
"W-what do you mean?" She asked trying to act as if nothing was wrong.
"I don't want children. They are naive and I don't want the burden of raising a child." Hinata almost wanted to break down and cry. She had to hold it together.
"But Sasuke kids can be beautiful things don't you think?"
"I don't care to think about it, I just don't want any."
"Are you going to talk to Itachi?" Hinata asked to change the subject before she broke down in front of Sasuke but before she could Itachi appeared on the roof. Sasuke and Hinata stood up and Sasuke and Itachi looked each other in the eye saying nothing. Hinata saw her escape goat.
"I think I'll leave you two alone." Hinata got up and left leaving the two brothers face to face alone.
Neither of the two watched her as she left. They looked each other in the eye and neither budged or moved a muscle. It seemed as if everything was in slow motion, like it was a dream.
"Hello little brother, you miss me?" Itachi said with sarcasm. Sasuke seemed to not hear him talk in his eyes you could see little Sasuke.
"Why did you leave all those years ago Itachi; was it really to hurt me, or to get me to grow up?" Sasuke was getting furious as he spoke.
"Silly Sasuke, like I told you back then, I did not leave because of you. I left because I couldn't stand to be around that man you call father." Itachi said not fazed by Sasuke's anger.
"You coward! Whatever he did was so bad that you had to leave me! You had to leave us! Do you know how much you leaving changed everything?" Sasuke couldn't control his anger and he charged at Itachi at full force. He kicked, punched and did everything he could to hurt him but Itachi blocked them all. Itachi allowed him to get his anger out and when he was tired Itachi looked at him and kicked him in the stomach. Sasuke doubled over with pain on his knees. Itachi stood over him looking down at him.
"Don't you remember I told you to focus your anger when you're fighting?" Itachi asked. Sasuke spit up blood and sat down on his butt.
"I left because I was sick of your father's controlling ways. He did sneaky things that no one in that house knew but me and I was done with keeping his secrets and taking his orders. Whatever pain I caused you and mother…I am sorry."
Sasuke didn't remember ever hearing Itachi speak those words before. His anger melted away and sat there and wiped his mouth.
"He cheated on mother. Many times with some woman from another town, she was a nurse named Haruno. I don't recall her first name but he made me keep his secret. I didn't keep because of him; I kept it because of mother and you. I couldn't shatter your dream of perfection so I took the baggage I carried and left."
Sasuke couldn't believe what he was hearing. He looked up at Itachi as he held his hand out to him to help him off the floor. Sasuke took his hand and for a split second you saw younger Itachi and Sasuke playing around as they did when Sasuke was younger.
~Meanwhile~
Hinata went straight back into the room and closed the door. She forced herself to reach the bed before she started crying. Hinata couldn't help but to cry after everything that has happened, maybe it was the hormones of being pregnant. She steadily cried harder thinking about the situation she was in. Being pregnant was supposed to be a beautiful thing but she couldn't help but think about maybe having to get rid of it.
She wouldn't let herself think of what was inside of her as a baby…if she did she couldn't live with herself if she got rid of it. The thoughts that were racing through her mind were starting to make her nauseous again. Hinata forced herself to calm down and stop the tears from flowing.
After she stopped she suddenly felt herself become weak and slowly drifted into sleep.
Hinata slept for a few hours and awoke to the empty room she fell asleep in. She got up and stretched before she went to go look for Sasuke and Itachi which she found them in the weapon room.
"You had a nice nap?" Sasuke asked her as she came in. "Yes, what are you guys doing?"
"Hinata tell us about who kidnapped you and why." Itachi said as he sharpened a knife on one side of the room. Sasuke was about to say something but stopped because he too wanted to know exactly what happened.
Hinata sat down on the floor facing the two of them. It was like a triangle, Itachi on one side Sasuke on the other and Hinata in the middle with both of their attention. Hinata took a second to gather her thoughts and told them everything from start to finish. When she was done Sasuke was angry that he never once thought about Sai after went missing.
"I'll kill that sneaky bastard!" Sasuke said. "Calm down Sasuke, you'll get your revenge when we go back tonight." Itachi said from his seat unaffected by anything said.
"Go back? Why didn't you tell me we were going back?" Hinata asked. Sasuke sat back down and looked at Hinata.
"Well we aren't going, Itachi and I are…without you." Sasuke said almost afraid of what Hinata's reaction was going to be.
"What do you mean without me? You two are not going alone! This is my battle and I refuse to just sit back and let you two take care of it by yourselves." Hinata said a little angry.
"We can handle ourselves. You're talking to two Vampire-Human hybrids from the most powerful vampire family ever, I think we can handle Sai, Sakura and Orochimaru without you Hinata. I just don't want you to get hurt." Sasuke said with pride.
"And you're talking to a human with powers who can also handle herself. I am not letting you go without me and that's that." Sasuke knowing Hinata wasn't going to budge on her decision sighed and agreed to let her go.
"You're such a push over for her little brother." Itachi said with his normal seriousness but meaning it to be a joke. Sasuke didn't say anything and just ignored him.
"Oh, and we're not going without the others. I think we could use the extra help." Hinata suggested and they agreed mostly because they wanted to be sure that nothing happened to Hinata.
They agreed to go that night and take them by surprise. They left Itachi's house as the sun went down to go back to Sasuke's house. The travel there wasn't too long but was spent in mostly silence. Itachi was quiet most of the time, Hinata spent the time going over the plan and trying not to think of the situation in her belly, and Sasuke just went along with it because it was comfortable silence to him.
When they reached Sasuke's house it was dark and quiet. Hinata was excited to be home and to see everyone again. When she twisted the door knob and opened the door the excitement left her body.
The three of them looked in amazement at the trash and broken glass that lay everywhere. Sasuke walked in and went into the living room to find everyone there cleaning up the mess. They all looked at Sasuke with relief because they didn't know if he was ok.
"Sasuke thank god you're ok and back." Deidara said as he put a piece of glass in the big black bag they had for garbage. When Hinata appeared behind him everyone was shocked.
"Hinata!" Everyone spoke at the same time. Hinata smiled and was so happy to see them all.
"Hey guys! I missed you so much!" They dropped what they were doing and walked over to her so she wouldn't have to walk in the mess. Then Itachi walked into the room and everyone froze.
"What's the matter? Looks like you've seen a ghost." Itachi said with a smirk.
"That's because we have." Sasori said. "Sasuke what's he doing here?"
"That's not important right now. What the hell happened here?" Sasuke asked referring to why everything was in shambles.
Hinata felt something strange because the tone of the room changed after Sasuke asked what happened.
"Someone broke in while we were resting this morning, we don't know who but…they took Nanami." Kankuro said mindful of how Hinata felt about her.
"But why would they take her? What good would that do?" Hinata asked becoming angrier by the second. Then she thought of something and ran up the stairs. No one knew what she was doing but they all followed her except Itachi.
Hinata ran through the hall and to the back to where the house keepers stayed at. She opened Chika and Hikari's bedroom door and it was empty. Then she went to their Mother's room and it was also empty.
"Hinata what-"
"They took her! Their working with Orochimaru and they came for me but instead took her to hurt me!" Hinata said cutting Sasuke off. Sasuke put his hand on Hinata's shoulder knowing she was angry.
"Wait, did she just say Orochimaru!" Sasori asked. Sasuke nodded and told everyone what happened to Hinata from start to finish including how Itachi saved her and know was on their side.
"Okay so what's the plan Sasuke? We're in it." Deidara said.
"Well we figured we'll go back to where they brought Hinata tomorrow night. We have the element of surprise so we have the upper hand." As Sasuke explained the game plan Hinata started to drift off then something happened and she didn't know what. All of a sudden she saw darkness, then Nanami.
She saw Nanami tied up and Chika and Hikari standing over her and then they started beating her. Nanami screamed and then Chika looked toward where she facing Hinata's sight and started talking.
"If you don't come soon we're going to kill her." Then the image faded away.
"Hinata….Hinata are you okay?" Sasuke was asking her.
"We have to go tonight!" Hinata said when she came out of it. Sasuke looked at her funny.
"I don't know what just happened all I know is I saw them torturing her and Chika said if we don't come soon they're going to kill her."
"They communicated with you through your power to see inside of people's head. They did that on purpose." Kankuro said.
"It's not smart to go tonight. They're going to expect it and we can't afford to lose. They might kill you Hinata." Sasuke said.
"I don't care Sasuke. We can't just let them kill her!" Hinata said getting upset.
"Hinata calm down. It's not like you're her mother and we don't even know if they're telling the truth, it could be a trap. We will go tomorrow night."
The comment about her not being Nanami's mother stung Hinata a little bit. She tried not to show it and just nodded and left to go to her and Sasuke's room.
When she closed the door she mentally kicked herself for almost blowing her own cover. She had to realize that everyone in the house was clever enough to know if she was acting strange and she really didn't want to raise any eyebrows.
She took a deep breath and realized she needed someone to talk to desperately so she looked at the time. 10:35p.m, she picked up the phone, dialed a number and hoped that the person she was calling was still awake.
"Hello." A groggy sounding Tenten came to the phone at the last ring.
"Hey Tenten, sorry to wake you but I just needed to talk to you." Hinata said glad she picked up the phone.
"Oh hey Hinata! I hadn't heard from you in a while I was starting to worry. Are you okay?" Tenten's voice helped calm Hinata's nerves a tiny bit.
"I just need to see you and talk. Can we meet up tomorrow? I can come to the shop if you want."
"Oh no I'm not working tomorrow, But Hina you're welcome at my house anytime for any reason. Just come by tomorrow when you can."
"Okay, thank you Tenten." Hinata was so relieved and happy to have Tenten as a friend. They hung up and it left Hinata feeling better, she left the room and went down to the kitchen realizing she was hungry.
She got and apple and a knife and held it over the sink pealing the skin off. She was occupied with that so much that she didn't realize someone else came into the room.
"Does Sasuke know?" Hinata almost jumped out of her skin when she heard Kankuro's voice behind her.
"Does Sasuke know what?" Hinata asked hoping he wasn't talking about what she thought.
"Hinata you know exactly what I'm talking about." It was hard to look him in the eyes so Hinata tried looking at his shirt instead.
"No, I don't and I—"
"You being pregnant." Kankuro interrupted Hinata's sentence.
Hinata couldn't try to lie anymore. "How did you know?"
"It was a feeling, and then I saw the look in your eyes when Sasuke made the comment about you not being that girl's mother…and I sort of overheard your conversation with Tenten and put two and two together." Kankuro walked over and sat down at the barstool near the counter.
"To answer your question, No he doesn't know." Hinata was looking to the floor now.
"When are you going to tell him?"
"I'm not." Kankuro was surprised to hear Hinata say this.
"What do you mean you're not?"
"Exactly what I said. I'm not going to tell him, he doesn't want any children so why mention it." Hinata was trying not to cry.
"So what if he said that, he still deserves to know. What are you going to do….not abort it…right?" Kankuro was worried at what her answer might be.
"If did choose to, so what. It's my body and he doesn't want children."
"Hinata you're talking crazy, and on top of all that you can't go with us tomorrow night." Hinata's eyes widened and she looked at him like he grew another head.
"Why not?" She asked.
"Because, you being who you are and having the powers that you do, when you're pregnant it makes you very vulnerable and weakens you. It's like a normal person being pregnant times two. If you over work yourself you can not only put the baby at risk but also yourself. Please, if not for the baby then for yourself don't come." Kankuro made that his last sentence before he got up and left leaving Hinata in the kitchen alone again.
Hinata felt worse than before, she lost her appetite and just went back to the room. She took a shower and got under the warm covers and tried hard to drift off to sleep but it didn't work.
Then the door opened and Sasuke came in. He noticed her in the bed but went to take a shower. After he came back he got in the bed next to her and noticed she was still awake.
"Where you waiting up for me?" Sasuke asked as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled them close to each other.
"No, but I'm glad you're here." Hinata felt a tingle run through her body as Sasuke put his face in crook of her neck.
"The others went out hunting so they'll be energized for tomorrow night." Sasuke said as he kissed and nibbled at Hinata's neck. Hinata knew what Sasuke was getting at when he said that. She was enjoying the feeling but she couldn't help but think about the addition growing in her stomach.
"Why didn't you go with them? You need your energy too and even though you don't need to feed as often as them, you still need to." Hinata said and Sasuke slowly worked his way down her neck and was now on top of her kissing the other side of her neck.
"S-Sasuke…you need it." Hinata said trying to get him to stop.
"I need this more." Sasuke said taking off his shirt. A part of Hinata wanted this too but most of her wasn't in the mood.
"Sasuke stop….go for me please." Sasuke stopped and looked at Hinata's face and kissed her passionately. Then he got up from her and put on some clothes and left room saying he would be back later and to not wait up for him.
Hinata could tell he was a little upset but she had to do what she had to do. She needed to rest up because if Kankuro was right she was going to need all the strength possible tomorrow.
