Chapter 34
Hinata stayed beneath the covers. Gaara had done as he promised and stayed on the couch. Being in the same room as him made her nervous. This was the man that had made her life a living hell. The man that haunted her nightmare. The father of her child. That seemed to be the only good thing that he had done. Father an innocent baby.
"Hinata," She heard him say and just decide she would pretend to sleep. "I know you're awake." She hissed.
"How?" She asked sitting up.
"When you sleep. You're breathing differs and you'd be thrashing around by now if you were." She sat up.
"How do you expect me to sleep in a room with you?" He frowned though he knew she wouldn't see in the dark.
"I don't. I expect you to hate me for forever and more then that." Hinata heard that sincerity again. The believable one.
"Why do you keep acting like this? Like your some kind of saint?"
"Because, I'm sorry. I'm completely and utterly sorry for the pain I put you through. I don't deserve anything you have to offer me." His voice shock. It was quiet for a few minutes before another word was spoken.
"How's Misaki?" Hinata asked.
"She's fine. She's great actually. She's a very smart girl. She's already crawling and She can even hold the bottle all by herself." Gaara smiled. "I wish you could see her. She really does look like you." He frowned again. "Sometimes she looks so much like you... It's hurts to look at her... Because I miss you so much."
"Well I'm glad that she's alright. That's all that matters."
"I'm sorry I took her away from you..." Gaara looked out the window. "I'm not a stable man, Hinata. I have issues. but lets get on thing straight." He paused. "You were never one of them." Hinata could hear him on the verge of tears. "I'm a better person just for knowing you. I'm glad you helped me the day we met. I know you must loathe that day and wish that you had just left me for dead, but I cherish that day and I always will." Hinata couldn't see him but she knew that tears were rolling silently down his face. though he done all kind of thing to her. Though she had a feeling he was still a monster beneath all the kindness. She got up and walked to him. She wasn't scared, or even hateful or angry. She pitied him and just wanted to hug him. He had been right. She could never forgive him... at least not completely. yet at this moment seeing him at his weakest, all she wanted was to comfort him and forgive him.''
"I'm so sorry Hinata." She reached him to took him in her arms and embraced him.
"Shh... It's okay." For once in the last 2 years (A/N: Hope I got that date right) She felt like her old self. Kind, caring, comforting, forgiving. She felt the closure that she needed to look at him, To not run in fear from him anymore, to not hate him. He fell asleep in her arms feeling as if she loved him again. Which was all he needed.
Gaara woke up. To see Hinata dressed in some of his clothes. They were obviously to big. but she had poke a hole in one of his belts in order to keep the pant up. The Shirt fell over her hips and a bit lower. and she wore a hat over her head.
"You look like a 13 year old boy trying on his father's clothes." She stuck her tongue out at him.
"Ha ha, considering that it's the only thing for me to wear."
"I could of brought you something to wear." Gaara got up and stretched.
"Yeah, no thank you. these will work just fine."
"Alright whatever floats your boat."
"I should really be getting to the airport. I'm pretty sure Sakura will be there waiting for me. I mean it's already 7:13."
"Yeah I guess luckily the airport is close."
"I can catch a cab. You can just sleep."
"No I want to make sure you get there safely and that Sasuke leave you be. When you get back, Ino should be at there." Hinata smiled.
"Good. Well hurry up and get ready. We have to be going."
"Okay."
Sakura was there when Hinata and Gaara reached the airport. She was like a mother checking Hinata for scratches and bruises of all kind. She looked at Gaara who stood not to far from Hinata.
"I think we're good. I can take her from here. I already have her ticket." Sakura grabbed Hinata's hand getting ready to work off.
"Sure. Bye Hinata. And remember your mom has Misaki." Hinata shock her head. Gaara dug through his wallet. "Here's a few dollars for the wait in case you get hungry." Hinata hesitantly took the money. 200 hundred dollars was more then enough for the wait. She laughed.
"Bye Gaara." Hinata stuffed the money in her pocket. and Sakura pulled her away. Gaara watched them until they were out of his sight. He was glad he got to spend sometime with her. Even if she pretended not to be mad at him.
"Hinata, You know... you look like a boy... maybe next time you should, I don't know... wear some female clothes or better else... Clothes that fit." Hinata pouted.
"I'm sorry for not looking like a girl."
"That's not it... You make me seem older. You look like my much younger brother..." Hinata laughed.
"Well I'm sorry next time you can look like the younger one."
"Yeah sure. Speaking of which I thought you hated Gaara. Why were you so chummy with him." Hinata Thought about it.
"I guess I have nothing to be mad at him about. I shouldn't hold a grudge against him. I should be happy. don't you think?" Sakura smiled.
"Of course you should."
alright done. please review. until this weekend.
