Hinata ran as far as she could with a dark blush still on her face. Her encounter with Sasuke wasn't what she had expected. He was rude and harsh to her. Hinata couldn't take it and snapped at him. She had insulted him and yet complimented his good looks at the the same time.

She kept on running until she found a quiet spot. Hinata stopped when she found a nice bench under a tree. Out of breath, she sat down and closed her eyes. Thoughts began going through her head.

'God, that didn't go right, and since was I so clumsy?'

Hinata was always graceful, rarely tripping or knocking things over.

'And since was I so nervous around a guy that isn't Naruto?'

She ran a hand through her hair. Hinata had never gotten that close to a guy before, as far as she knew, she was the shyest girl in Konoha. Ten-Ten would always urge her on to ask a guy out to go to a school dance or festival. She was kinda was clueless of the opposite sex, her father always kept her in the dark about that subject.

Her cousin, Neji, wasn't much of a help either. When she would ask him about what 'bangin' someone' meant or what a crotch was, he would always something like "hey, look over there!" or "I can't stain your innocent mind!" and run away. So trying to find the answer to one of the questions was not so easy. In the end she would turn to Temari, a wise teen who had a many boyfreinds in the past. After Temari told her what 'bangin' someone' meant and what a crotch was Hinata ran away with a big red blush while covering her ears, not wanting to believe what she just heard.

Hinata snapped out of her flashback moment when she heard the loud voicethat belonged to a blond. She slowly opened her eyes and saw none other than Ino walking towards her with Kiba and Naruto close behind her, Akamaru back in Kiba's sweater.

"Hey Hinata!"

Hinata smiled and blushed when she saw Naruto's grin. Something about him just wanted to make her melt.

"We finally caught Akamaru after he peed on Mr. Iruka's foot. We kinda got chased through the whole park..."

She wasn't really listening to Ino, Hinata was still thinking about what happened between her and Sasuke.

"Hinata! Are you listening to me!"

She snapped out of her moment and back to reality after hearing Ino's very loud voice, louder than before (if that's possible). Ino sat down next to Hinata on the bench, wondering why she was so dazed. "Hey, are you o.k.? Your all zoned out."

"Y-y-yeah, I'm f-f-f-fine." Hinata stuttered more than usual, and for the people who knew her well it was a sign that Hinata was either nervous or she was lying. Ino raised a blond eyebrow at her. "Are you sure?"

"Y-y-yeah, I-I'm s-s-sure!"

"O.k., if you insist. Now, how did it go with you inviting Sasuke?"

"U-um, a-about that-"

"Did he say yes!" Ino once again went into I-Love-Sasuke chibi form with hearts as eyes.

"W-well, y-y-you see, u-um uh, I-I, w-well h-he uh, n-no..."

Ino went back to normal and her face saddened and she sighed. "Oh well, atleast he's not who I'm really after." Hinata smiled, her friend sure was complicated.

"W-what do y-you mean?"

"I've never told anyone this before," Ino looked around for Naruto and Kiba who were not around nearby, "I have a crush on Shikamaru." After that statement Ino did something she rarely does. She blushed.

"Seriously? H-he just broke up with T-temari!"

"I know! I've had a crush on him since the sixth grade!"

A few yards away Kiba and Naruto hid behind a tree, trying to hear what the two girls were saying.

"What do you think they're saying?"

Naruto grinned and puffed his chest up. "I bet they're talking about how hot I am and how they badlywant to date me!" Naruto then made a pose, his teeth sparkeling. Atleast, that's what he pictured in his head. Kiba shortly punched him in his head.

"Retard!"

Sigh, Naruto and his ego. Unfortuneately, with all the noise, they got the attention of Hinata and Ino who had walked up to them, eyebrows raised. "Um, what is exactly happening here?" Hinata just looked at them.

"Uh, we're practicing wrestling moves?"

"Uh huh, sure you were." Ino said sarcasticlly.

Kiba just glared at her. his stomach suddenly growled of hunger, he frowned. "Hey, uh, anybody got the time?" Naruto looked at his wristwatch and gasped. "Dude, it's 7:17! I've got to eat some ramen!" He said bye to eyerybody and ran home. Ino left shortly after Naruto had ran out of the park so fast.

Hinata and Kiba were left there all alone when Hinata realised just how late it was. "U-um, I h-have to g-go, b-bye Kiba." Hinata started leaving but Kiba quickly grabbed her wrist. Hinata blushed, that was the second time that day she had close contact with a boy.

"Hinata, can I walk you home? It's kinda late for you to be out alone." Kiba rubbed the back of his neck. 'Smooth move, idiot!' Hinata thought for a moment, it would be nice to have some protection, but then again, it wasn't the first time she's been out alone after dark. She gave him a warm smile.

"T-thanks K-kiba, b-but I'll b-be o.k."

"Ya sure?''

"Y-yeah."

He let go of her wrist and Hinata started walking away. "Hey, can I ask you somethin', Hinata?" She stopped and turned back around. "Hmm?"

"Why do you stutter so much?" He knew he was going to regret that.

She started fiddling with her fingers. "I uh, s-sorry if i-it b-bothers y-you..."

"No, it's not that! I think it's cute." Yep, he was going to regret that. Her eyes widened and her blush got darker, if that was possible. Kiba frowned, what the hell did he just say? Was he crazy?

"I-I-I..."

Kiba smiled a little, there was that cute stutter again. 'Wait what the hell? Kiba stop it dammit!' Yeah, he was deffinately crazy, He sighed and let go of Hinata's wrist. Kiba slowly walked away, scowlig at himself for being so forward. Akamaru whimpered at seeing his owner so sad. 'She's prabably never going to talk to me again. And since when did I start feeling so attracted to her? Damn harmones!'

Hinata just stood there, a little confused yet flattered. Since when did my life get so complicated? First, the Narto crush, then, the whole too-close-for-comfort thing with Sasuke, now, Kiba thinking she's cute. Hinata does not handle boy trouble that well, actually, she's never handled boy trouble at all.

She sighed. 'I better be heading home.'

Hinata left Konoha Park and headed for the sidewalk. In just a few minutes she was only two blocks away from her home, She would've gotten there sooner if it wasn't for a minor obstacle. Hinata bumped into something hard and tall. Hinata fell on her back, for the second time that day, with an 'oof!'. Before her stood Uchiha Sasuke. Okay, maybe not such a minor obstacle.

"Watch where your going, freak." Sasuke glared at her with those cold charcoal eyes.

Hinta got back on her feet and glared at him. Something about him just pissed her off (is this the same Hinata? Yes!). Maybe it was his rudeness, or his asshole-ness, she wasn't sure. He just glared at her one last time and sarted walking again. Hinata wouldn't get him get away without an insult.

"Bastard!" yelled Hinata, stopping prettyboy in his tracks. Hinata just stormed off without looking back.

Hinata arrived home shortly afterswearing at Sasuke. She had been sent to her room for missing curfew. Her all powerful and rich bussiness man father, Hiashi, had asked her why she was late. Hinata told her dad that she was at the library and time flew by. Hiashi, knowing better, knew she was lying through her teeth and sent her to her room.

Shortly, she had called Ino, confirming where they would meet tommorrow. Hinata smiled at herself, proud that she had stood up to Sasuke and not throw herself at his feet like any other girl ('cept for Ten-Ten, Temari, and I guess Ino). About thirty minutes passedand then there was a knock on the door. She opened it and found Neji on the other side.

"Hey, Hinabi told me that you were late for curfew. What happened?"

"I-I-I w-was at t-t-the library a-and I-I lost t-t-track of t-time."

Neji frowned at her.

"No really, what happened?"

Hinata sighed, defeated.

"I was p-party p-planning with I-Ino."

"Seriously?"

"S-serously, which r-reminds me, w-wanna come?"

"Why should I?"

T-Ten-Ten'll be t-there."

"Really?" Neji's had a crush on Ten-Ten since elementary.

"Y-yes."

"Okay, when?"

"S-saturday at 8:00."

"Thanks, night."

"N-night."

Hinata got ready for bed and went to sleep, or atleast tried to. It was hard since she was still thinking of what happened that day, she could tell tommorrow was going to be interesting.
