Hinata sat at the end of the 26 foot long table with her attorney. The divorce proceedings were in commencement and should be completed by November. That was only six months away. She could not wait. She looks across the table to see her soon to be ex glaring at her. She smiles at him and turns back to the Judge, on which is Naruto's good friend, Gaara.
"Hinata, we require you to make an list of all your demands to give to your husband's attorney." She's written these demands over a thousand times. She was ready with a folder that she handed to her attorney. Her attorney assess and confer it to the Judge. Gaara looks back at her and arches an eyebrow before handing it to her husband's attorney. Sasuke snatches the document out of his attorney's hand, reviewed it and places it down on the table.
"No. I will not agree to any of these terms." He announces. His attorney tries to hush him, but he continues. "This list is ludicrous. She wants more then what she brought in, which mind you, wasn't much. So, no." Hinata knew he wouldn't agree. He would never agree to such high terms. She also knew it was going to be a battle with him. She stood up with her attorney.
"Well, I guess we have nothing more to say. Have a good evening." The two women exits the room. Hinata waves her goodbyes to her attorney and walks towards the parking garage. She reached down for her keys, but felt a strong force pulling her body into a corner. She looks up to see her husband's burning eyes.
"You fucking bitch. You want everything? Everything? You have some nerve. I told you, I would kill you before that ever happens." He was pissed and what was worse he held her hands above her head in a tight grip. She winced in pain.
"Sasuke, let me go. You are hurting me. You wouldn't dare kill me. You will go to prison. Am I worth that? Your life would be ruin." He continues to glare at her. His eyes roamed her body before crushing his lips into hers. Danger bells starts to ring. She need to get away. She didn't want it to happen again.
He held her wrist in place with one hand as the other goes down bring up her skirt and ripping her panties. He tightens his hold on her. She bites his tongue and he yelps. Pulling away and holding his mouth. She goes to run, but he grabs her and slams her back into the concrete wall. His hands were on her wrist again.
"You fucking bitch." His lips went down to her neck, biting hard, drawing blood. She cries out in pain. He smirks at his handy work. While she was distracted, he swiftly undo his pants and uses his one leg to spread her legs. He whispers in her ear, "Hinata, stop moving. You are only going to make this worse. ImYou made me wait for so long. I have this right as your husband. You are mines." Tears rolls down her face. She wasn't going to let this happen again.
She head bumps him and then knees him in the groin before taking off towards her car. He grabs her legs and she hits the concrete with a thud. Blood starts to drip from her forehead into her eyes. She felt slightly disoriented. He drags her back towards him. She screams as her legs scraped against the concrete. She wasn't going to let him win. She kicks him with her heels multiple times, hard. Breaking loose from his hold, he stumbles to grab her again, due to his pants being down. She stood again and took off. She was in pain and bleeding, but didn't care. She went full sprint, unlocking her car, starting the engine and speeding off. She starts to cry softly as she drove. She was so thankful that her skills in self defense paid off.
She drove to Naruto's. It was the first place that came to her mind. She knew he would be there, since it was after work hours. Hinata walks up the stairs towards his apartment when his door opens and a female walks out. 'His wife?' She wasn't sure what was going on, but they left on good terms. She was under the impression that he was done with her, but obviously that wasn't the case. She strolls slowly towards his apartment as his wife glares at her.
"Ugh...Where are you going? You look like hell." Sakura spoke up in disgust.
"You know where?" Hinata responds in the same tone.
"Just so you are aware, he doesn't love you nor want you. He loves me. He told me. Also, I will get him back. He will come back to me." Hinata shakes her head.
"If you think you two will get back together and live happily ever after, go right ahead. Naruto knows better." Sakura rolls her eyes.
"If that was the case, he wouldn't have slept with me." She smirks as Hinata looks surprised. "That's right. We slept together, just now. It was soo...good. So, go right ahead, but our bond is strong." Hinata stood motionless as Sakura walks away. She couldn't believe what she heard. He wouldn't do that after coming this far. She is lying, but what was she doing there? How long has she been there? She thought he was making progress, now he is going backwards. She felt foolish for believing him. She thought he wanted revenge, but sleeping with his wife isn't vengeance. She walks briskly to his door, knocking on it and waits patiently for him to open. As soon as his door opens, she punches him.
"You slept with her?" He looks down as he holds his nose. He blinks at her before comprehending what she was speaking about.
"Slept with who?" Hinata glares at him.
"Sakura. I just saw her leave your apartment. Why was she even here? She said you two slept together. Is it true?" Yet again, his wife only enhances his decision. He turns to walk to the kitchen to wipe his nose. She follows closing the door behind her. "Well, did you?"
"Noo.. God. No. She was here trying to win me back, but I told her that I am done. I can't trust her and her telling you this, helps. I can't believe you actually believed her lying ass." Hinata frowns.
"I'm sorry. I thought..wrong. I don't know." She watches as he continues to clean himself. "Where's your first aid kit?" He points towards the bathroom. She walks away to grab the kit. Naruto takes a seat on the sofa. He shakes his head. Hinata takes a seat beside him and rotates his face towards her. He watches as she works to fix the damage she caused.
"To be so small, you pack a pretty powerful punch." She giggles.
"Well, I had help. I am so sorry." He smiles.
"Don't be. You're fine." She continues to clean his wound. Luckily, his nose wasn't broken. Her eyes looks up to see his eyes looking back at her. Her body starts to warm and she starts to blush. Naruto stares intensely at her. His desires starts to bubble up. He was about to lean in to kiss her, until he took in her appearance. She had a huge bruises on her neck and her knees. Her forehead and face was slightly red and blood was slightly calming down in her eye. He extendd up and pulls her hands from his nose.
"Hinata, what happened to you? You have bruises all over you?" She frowns. She actually wanted a distraction from the marks.
"Sasuke tried to... attack me in the garage, but I got away." He stares at her as her tears starts to wail up in her eyes. He was pissed. A man that puts their hands on any woman is a coward. Naruto pulls out a cleaning cloth from the kit and peroxide. He wanted to wipe away the pain she was enduring. He wanted to cleanse her of Sasuke's fithy actions and make her pure again. He wanted her to have no more fear.
Hinata remained still as he cleans her face. His blue eyes focus on a small cut above her eye brows. She observe as his facial expressions went from firm to soft. She was at a lost. Never has anyone taken care of her like this. No male outside of Kiba and Neji. It was comforting.
Naruto continues to clean her face, but he was becoming more and more distracted by her lips. The same lips he kissed a month ago. The same lips that were on his..he shook his head. This woman was driving him crazy. He has been trying his best to endure, but the tension between them is becoming unbearable. It only reminds him of that fervent night with lady strange. He was pulled from his thoughts and frowns as he looks at the bruise on her neck.
"He did this to you?" She nods slowly. He wasn't sure what possess him to do it, but he leans down and gently kisses the bruise lightly. "I'm sorry." He whispers. "He doesn't deserve you." He kisses the mark lightly again before moving to the other side of her neck. Hinata was surprised by his action. He was so gentle with her. Small flashbacks flicker through her mind. She knew she's felt this before, but she knew at the same time she wasn't ready for this. She pulls away from him and shakes her head slowly.
"Naruto, we can't do this. Not right now." He looks into her eyes and nods. He didn't trust his voice. "I'm sorry, Naruto. I care for you a lot, but I don't want this to become all about sex or trying to fill something that is missing." He nods in agreement.
"I understood, fully. I care for you deeply, but I am not in love with you. So, I completely understand." She smiles at him and cups his chin. She was being drawn to him again. His lips were asking to be connected to hers. She pulls away quickly and stands.
"I should go." He nods and escorts her out. He leans on his door and exhales. He smiles and shakes his head. It was small, but he has felt this fire before. He felt it after their first kiss and the sexual encounter. She was her. He will never forget the way she taste. He was in denial at first, but he could never forget that feeling. The spark inside waiting to explode. The way she smelled, her body, and her moans. God, her moans. He knew it for some time, now. He just never act on it. Their friendship meant so much to him. It's astonishing how things were coming together. The universe places them where they needed to be. It was actually perfect. Now, it will only become more intense. Just for now, he need to handle the problem below.
"I guess I got to take another cold shower." He stood with his harden length and walks towards his bathroom with a little pep in his step.
Hinata looks back at his door in realization. She knew that it could of been him, but now, she certain of it. She is confident he was aware, also.
That stranger in the night, the one that gave gentle kisses and passionate strokes. She can smell his scent all over her and it was exhilarating. She covers her mouth and smiles, a small giggle slips from her lips. This was becoming more interesting, now. The payback to their other halves will be even sweeter. Thinking of her next move, she steps away from the door, feeling lighter in her heart and mind.
