Hinata's POV:

I woke up from my nap to find Sasuke-san still there in the hospital room.'Why was he still here?What happened to Kurenai-sensei?OMG WHAT IF SHES BUSY AND HES TRYING TO RAPE ME!'I thought in horror as Sasuke sat there reading a magazine.'hah..he wouldn't do that to me...Hes probably gay anyways.I've never seen him take interest in any of the MILLIONS of girls that surround him..'I thought,calming down instantly.

Sasuke-san must have heard the sheets moving and the creak of the small bed,because he looked up from his magazine and smiled.'Sasuke-san smiling!I've never seen him smile before...Only that same smirk everyone has become familiar with...' I thought. "S-asuke-san..Where is K-Kurenai-sensei?" I asked "She is resting and trying to talk to your clan.They want to hire ninjas to find the assasin and guard the Hyuuga compound."Sasuke-san said calmly.

"How are you feeling?"he asked sincerly "U-U-h...I-I'm f-f-fine.."I stammered 'My goodness...Did he just ask me how I was feeling!This must be a dream..A bad one.I don't like Sasuke-san..I love Naruto-kun...Oh well...At least I won't have to worry about being shy around Sasuke-san..I know he doesn't like anybody,much less a girl like me..So I guess I won't have to worry about much..'I thought as the blush on my cheeks started to fade.

"Hinata..Lie back down.You're still too weak."Sasuke said firmly as he put the magazine down and walked over to me.I blushed once more as he came to fluff my pillows "Just want you to feel comfortable.."He mumbled

Neji's POV:

Lord Hokage's office.Tsuande wanted to speak to me..Hiashi was also here,along with Hinata's grandmother and her little sister Hanabi.Her grandmother was crying..Just to bear the fact that Hinata was dying."What do you remember?"Tsuande asked while putting a voice recorder to my mouth.

"It was around 10 o'clock about three days ago..I was asleep when I heard something at Hinata's window.In case if it was a burgler,I didn't want to waste my chakra on my Byakugan in case If I needed to defend her.So I grabbed a flashlight and creeped quietly to her room.There was a tall,muscular man wearing black pants and a black turtleneck with a black ski mask on..So I couldn't really see his identity.Hinata was bleeding like crazy from her neck,and started screaming.It scared him away.I chased after him for somewhile,untill he got away..When I came back,a lot of the clan's adults were in Hinata's room.Hiashi took her to the hospital and told Kurenai-sensei to take care of her for a few days while the clan tried to sort things out and look for the assasin."Neji said solemly

Hiashi took the recorder and stopped it."I don't want this recording found..."he said,stepping on the recorder.At that minute Kurenai-san walked through the door."I know what he looks like."she said "How the hell do YOU know if you weren't there!"Hanabi asked "Well...I was out with Iruka,and I saw a man that looked kind of suspicious with that description.Iruka and I decided to follow him,and we saw him walking through the gates that leaves Konoha.He preformed this jutsu on me that caused me to forget..I'm glad it wore off,shows hes not a very strong ninja.."Kurenai-san said "He took off his mask and threw it on the ground.Though it was dark,I couldn't really see his facial features or anything of the sort so..here.She pulled a ski mask out of her kunai pouch.

They put the ski mask in a DNA scanner and it showed who it was..On the screen showed a man who looked in his late 20's and had silver gray hair.He had a scar going across his lip,and was very tan."His name is Ginta Miyazaki.He was a missing-nin originally from the sand village.Lately hes been going around trying to kill off important people of powerful clans in order to rob them for cash and cause trouble in villages...That explains a lot " Kurenai-san said quietly "This creep is a major threat..We've been looking for him for a while now."Tsuande sighed..."Now he has struck Konoha."Hanabi said quietly "Fine then...Send ninja out to look for him.I want him DESTROYED.I can't have some bastard killing off my daughter.."Hiashi said coldly."I'll send out ninja"Tsuande assured him

Sasuke's POV:

After fluffing her pillows,she smiled and looked out the window.I could only imagine her longing.To feel the warm sun on your face,to just breath in the fresh air before going back to training with your team,it was priceless.It pained me to think that she rather be out there looking at that idiot Naruto,over being here with me.Trying to get rid of that feeling,I told myself in my mind, 'Like you said...You can turn on your charm and make her fall in love with you.'

"You want me to open the window?"I asked "Y-yes...h-how nice of you s-sasuke-san.."she answered back.I opened the window and let the cool autumn breeze flow in.She buried her head back in the pillows,and it was silent.The only sound that could be heard was her breathing machine and the noises outside.

Somebody knocked.Before Hinata could say anything,I opened the door.There was a doctor and a nurse."Hello there.I'm here to take off Hinata's breathing machine" the doctor said happily

BAM!I punched the doctor square in the face and yelled "YOU'RE NOT TAKING HER AWAY YET!CAN'T YOU SEE SHES GETTING STRONGER!SHES NOT READY TO DIE!" Before I could fly at the doctor again,the nurse pinned me down and the doctor said"What made you think I was going to kill her!I'm only dissconnecting the breathing machine because she has made amazing progress within the past 3 days,and she is able to breath on her own now!" He whispered something to the nurse,and she pushed me out of the door into the hallway.She locked the door and I sat there on a bench outside the room.Everybody in the hallway was staring at me.I glared at them all and they went back to their business..There goes the Sasuke Uchiha charm.I probably sounded like a total dumbass...I just hope Hinata isn't afraid of me now..' I thought while putting my head in my hands.

After a short while,the doctor and the nurse walked out of the room with the breathing machine.Hinata was awake and looked happy.The nurse has propped up her pillows so she could sit up now.When I walked in,she turned cherry-red and asked "S-sasuke...Why d-did you get scared w-when they said they w-were going to d-dissconnect my breathing machine?"
