A/N: Alright. I'm going to tell all you people why I never update it. So prepare for a very long Author's note. This whole story was my secret release. It was a place to spill my dreams and desires and wants for a friend of mine. It was a way to tell her with out telling her. And after it FINALLY clicked in her pretty little blonde head. I got what I wanted and my sad inspiration slowly died away. I got my girl. Sharpie Marker if you read my other story. Anyways. The hurt and sadness at the end of the last chapter left me no room to start off with a happy peppy beginning to a new chapter. I was waiting for some heart ache or at least some inspiration. Now a little more heart ache has happened and I have SOME material. But I apologize if this next chapter sucks. I warned you.
I opened my eyes as a chill tickled the sole of my foot. I wriggled out of the mass of covers and sheet I was wrapped in and sat up in my bed. I looked around and fell back to my pillow. My head was pounding and my throat was sore. I suddenly remember last night. Well, what I thought was last night.
I looked at my window and was almost blinded by the sun. Ducking under the covers to shield my eyes from the insane amount of light pouring into my room I realized how late it must be. The light that was shining on my blanket wasn't that morning light. It was not dim, nor soft. It was that bright over powering mid-day light. I walked to my kitchen and tripped over a pair of shoes. A pair of shoes that was not my own. I picked them up and studied them for a minute. They were men's shoes. A man in my house? Why was there a man in my house? They didn't look familiar so there was no way they were Neji's shoes.
I cautiously walked around the corner and down the hall that led to the living room. I unexpectedly stumbled upon a sleeping Kiba. Kiba? What in god's name was Kiba doing at my house? I walked around the couch and stood over the sleeping mass of muscle and hair.
"Kiba Inuzuka!" I shouted. "What are you doing in my house!?"
I must have startled him. He awoke from his sleep and flailed around on th4e couch for a second and settled down. "Oh hi Sakura." He said with a grin. "So how was your nap?"
I squinted a little. "It was fine. Now answer my question. Why are you here?" I demanded.
"Hinata and Neji sent me here to make sure you weren't dead." He replied as he sat up right lazily. He rubbed his eyes for a second and slouched down on the cushions a bit. "After a day or two I wasn't sure if you were ever gonna croke." He smirked up at me.
Kiba had never really liked me. After I rejected his ass back in the day he kinda tended to be mean to me. Never Hinata though. Just me. It was so crazy. He practically worshipped Hinata. Oh well, neither one of them were my problem now.
"So what? You were going to live in my house with my dead body in i…" I started to ask. Then I realized what he had said. "Wait? Neji and Hinata sent you over?" Yes, I was totally ignoring the fact he said a day or two. I kinda figured I had been out for a while.
"Yea. They were worried about you." He sarcastically stretched the worried out with the roll of his eyes.
"Both of them?"
Kiba just quietly nodded.
I sat down on the couch next to him. I was surprised they were worried about me. The way Hinata had totally rejected me and Neji had run out on me I expected them to just forget about me. I guess I had blew that theory out of the water a bit too far. I mean after one bad thing someone doesn't stop loving you.
"I have to go talk to them." I stood up and ran to my room.
"They'll probably be at the movie house!" Kiba called.
I got ready and left for the movie house. Both the Hyuuga siblings worked there. I can only imagine how those two got along after the other night. I was wearing hooded jacket. I snuck up to the ticket booth Neji was manning. I lifted the hood above my nose and started talking to him.
"One ticket for 'Princess of War' please?" I requested.
Neji gave me a dull reply of the price and then looked up as he slid the ticket under the glass. He must have caught a glimps of my pink hair dangling around my nose and cheek. He cause I saw him his fingers tighten around the ticket.
"Sakura?" His voice light up and I could picture the look on his face. I lifted my hood and looked at him. He ran around to the door and dashed out of the booth and tackled me as he threw his arms around me. "You're ok!" He hugged me tight.
"I'm fine." I said and wrapped my arms around him. My finger tips grazed against his long silky hair. I pulled away a bit and smiled at him. Be fore I could say anything else Hinata flew out of the door of the lobby and was hugging me too.
"Sakura!" She cried. "I'm so glad you're ok." She said.
"I'm fine you guys." I smiled warmly.
Between the two I saw no cold hateful stares and no evil smirks or sneers. They both just seemed happy to see me. There was a long awkward silence and then Hinata chimed out. "Sorry I did that to you." She looked down.
Neji looked down as well in attempt to hide. "It's ok." I said and looked at Neji. "I'm sorry I did that to you Neji."
He looked up at me and then Hinata. "I-it's ok." He said looking back at me. "I think we all need to talk. "
We all sighed a little and decided we would all meet at my house later to discuss our issues. I walked back to my house and Hinata and Neji went back to work. I kick Kiba out and cleaned up. I was trying to think. Who did I want? Was Hinata more right for my than Neji or was it the other way around?
I sat on my couch and waited for them to come over. A million thoughts raced threw my mind as I waited. Him or her? Was the main one. Finally I came to a conclusion Neji was the better choice. For both me and Hinata. So when they both got to my house. I gave them the news.
"Neji, Hinata." I took a deep breath and looked from him to her. "I have made a decision." They both looked very uncomfortable. "And my decision is…." I looked down and then back at them. "Neji." I confessed.
Hinata looked kind of hurt. "I understand." She smiled halfheartedly.
Those grey eyes on Neji's face light up like never thought possible. They went from grey to gleaming silver. "Thank you Sakura." He smiled and hugged me. "You made the right choice." He pulled away and kissed me on the cheek.
"Yea." I smiled a little. From behind Neji I could see Hinata walking out my front door. I wanted to say something but I held back. I just didn't have a good feeling about this.
A/N: Ok. So yea. Here's my next chapter. Don't worry I have a plan for it. You'll be like. Wha? But You'll see. Anyways. 7 reviews and I will post the next one. Sorry so short too...
