Relationship
( Hinata's point of view )
"Shit" I hear Sasuke hiss, "How did they know where you were?" I say still looking at them. "I have no idea..." he says.
We see them enter the building. Sasuke looks at me, "Was my father unconscious when you found him?" he asks.
"Y-Yeah," I say surprised by the sudden question. He looks to the side confused, "Then he shouldn't have woken up already... they probably gave him medication that should keep him out until tomorrow... and Itachi wouldn't ..." he says more to himself then it dawns on me and I realize what he is saying. "Then who called the cops?" we say at the same time.
"I did" we look toward the door and standing there is Tsunade. "T-Tsunade? you called the cops" I say surprised. "Why the hell did you do that!" Sasuke yells angrily at Tsunade. He begins to walk to her, murder intent radiating off him. But before he can get too close I stand in front of him. "Sasuke calm down," I say, "Why would you call the cops?!" he yells to Tsunade completely ignoring me.
"I-I had to Sasuke! you hurt the man I love," she says scared. "The man you love!" Sasuke yells, "That asshole has treated like crap from day one!" he yells. "Sasuke calm down!" I yell at him surprising myself.
He looks down at me then sighs. He walks toward the edge of the roof again and trys to calm down. The door burst open and policemen come in. They walk toward Sasuke, "Sasuke Uchiha you are under arrest for assault on your father Fugaku Uchiha" they say and put handcuffs on him and lead him downstairs.
I walk toward the edge and watch as they put Sasuke inside of a police car and drive away. I sigh and look back toward Tsunade, she's sitting down on the ground leaning against the door.
I walk toward her and sit down, "You know Tsunade that what that man does to you is wrong right" I whisper trying to be cautious of the subject. She chuckles, I glance at her and see there are tears streaming down her cheeks. "I know Hinata... but... I still love him..." she says not meeting my eyes then wipes the tears away.
"There has to be a reason..." I say she looks at me. "There has to be a reason why someone like you especially would stay in an abusive relationship... there is always a reason," I say while whispering the end.
She sighs and looks ahead, "He used to be so sweet," she says reminiscing. "I met him in high school... he was the sweetest boy I knew," she says to me still looking ahead. I look at her surprised, how could someone change so drastically?
"Of course I didn't pay much attention to him in high school I was more interested in Dan..." she says to me then smiles, her eyes still looking ahead except this time they look like they're shining. "Who is Dan?" I ask curiously.
"Dan was the love of my life..." she says distantly. "What happened to him?" I ask. "He died in war..." she whispers. She chuckles, "He was a hero... he died in order to protect his group," she says. "Even so... it doesn't make it hurt any less" I whisper looking down at the concrete, she nods in agreement.
"I deserve to be treated badly," she says suddenly. I look at her, "What makes you think that?" I ask. She sighs again, "I caused a great deal of pain to Sasuke's mother before she died," she says.
"How?" I ask curiosity getting the best of me. "I was the other women in their marriage..." she confesses and new tears stream down her face, she wipes them away.
I stay silent, Sasuke must already know that's why he must not like Tsunade. "Why?" I find myself asking. She looks at me but I look out at the city in front of me, she looks ahead again and shakes her head.
"I-I don't know... I was still depressed about what happened to Dan years later and I didn't want to be in a real relationship... then one day I met up with Sasuke's father and... one thing led to another... and before I knew it I fell for him... she says.
"I fell in love and for the first time in so long... I was happy... it was at the cost of others but I didn't care... as long as I had him... he made me feel loved... and that was all that mattered..."
"I-I thought I could change him" she confesses. "I thought maybe if I love fugaku enough he will change back to the way he was... and we could be happy..." her voice breaks.
She chuckles, "But who was I kidding? The only person that could have changed that man is long dead" she says referring to Sasuke's mother.
"When he wakes up are you going to go back to him?" I ask she looks at me. I meet her eyes waiting for her answer, she looks down "I-I don't know..." she says and starts crying.
And for the second time that day I hugged her except this time she didn't pull away. She stayed in my arms and cried because that was all she could do...
After Tsunade cried in my arms I took her to her friend's house since she didn't want to go back home. By the time I finally got home it was 2 in the morning.
I was ready to pass out. As soon as I got to my room I flopped down on my bed not even bothering to get changed or even take off my shoes.
It was short lived however because not 30 minutes later my phone started to ring, I picked it up "H-Hello" I say in a raspy voice not fully awake.
"Mrs. Uzumaki, I'm terribly sorry for waking you up at this hour, I'm a nurse from Uchiha hospital I'm calling to tell you your cousin Neji Hyuga has woken up from his coma"
