Epilouge
It has been three years since that day. Three years since I promised that I would change. Slowly, I knocked on his door—awaiting his answer. The door opened, showing Sasuke dripping with sweat.
"God, Hinata, you come right when I'm training," he said lamely. I smiled brightly. He's still the insensitive jerk that I give him credit to be.
"I came to give this to you," I mumbled softly, holding up the package. Sasuke raised an eyebrow. I saw that it hit him when he took the package.
"Y-you mean, chocolate?" he stuttered. The look on his face was priceless. Like the last time, he tore it open and bit into it. "It's… it's so good."
"I only made 5 chocolates this year," I stated. "One for my mom, one for my dad, one for my sister, one for Neji, and—"
"One for the one you love?" Sasuke finished, a blushing starting to creepy about his face. I shook my head. Is that all he's been thinking about lately.
"We start at base one."
"The kiss?" Sasuke asked, pulling me into his arms. He smelt of sweat—which was really nasty.
"You're smelly really sweaty, and NO," I replied, pushing him away. Shaking my head, I replied, "Base one, is being friends."
"Okay…" Sasuke replied irritably. "Base two is where we date."
"No, base two is where we become best friends."
"WHAT? That's too long. I don't care what they say, I want to be with you," Sasuke stated. I giggled. Ticking a bishonen off was more fun that I thought it'd be. I sighed.
"But we ARE together, Sasuke. Just as friends," I replied. "You know, just a dramatic change would make me uncomfortable."
"Fine, if my rainbow decides to take a U-turn I suppose I'll take one too," he replied, turning around. I smiled; I knew he would understand that I needed a lot of time to change.
"BASE FIVE!" Sasuke stated and kissed me on the cheek. He grinned. "Oops, sorry. Time flies so quickly, doesn't it, Hinata?"
"S-s-sasuke!" I chided, my face turned red. "That kiss was base 11!"
"WHAT?"
"Just kidding."
I laughed. That face was priceless too. Love, life, friendship—all the good things in life are scary too. But, if there's only one true light in your heart, uhh—god, I forgot what I was about to say. It was probably corny anyway. Sasuke is my rainbow, and so I follow him. I am Sasuke's rainbow, and so he follows me. We'll be together and that's the end of that.
"Oh, Sasuke, I forgot to mention. I used to daydream about kissing Naruto," I stated plainly. He stared at me.
"W-WAIT, I thought you were MINE!"
"What did you say?" Neji demanded from around the corner.
"Oh god. Why did you bring Neji, here, Hinata?"
"YOU UCHIHA SCUM!"
And there was another blur of black and black. I watched simply. Neji would warm up to him.
"GOD, I HATE YOU!" Neji screeched from within the scramble.
Well, I hope so anyway…
End of the Epilouge
Author's Notes: Yup, this is told in Hinata's point of view. I like first person a lot. It's easier to relate to, but I know it can be very newbie writing. Heh, heh... They're STILL not together. You can tell they will be though. Is that enough? And what the heck happened to Sakura and Naruto? I couldn't care less in this fanfic--but I suppose they ended up being together or something dumb like that. But THIS story is about Hinata and Sasuke, so yeah... trying something new is pretty fun.
Until Next Time,
Sammy
