Chapter three Peace Hinata crawled on her knees through the hallway into her room. She stood up and shut the door behind her and fell to the floor as her back slid against it , she hugged her knees as she cried silently to herself.

She lifted up her jacket from the bottom to reveal a red circular mark. She poked at it.

''Ouch''

She stayed in her fedal like position for a while trying not to think about what had just happened. She jumped when she heard a knock at the door.

''Hinata-chan ? Can i come in ?''

Hinata smiled as she gently laid her jacket back down over the mark. She backed away from the door.

''Yes come in."

A boy that seemed around her own age entered the room , their resemblance was undeniable. They both had the same pale eyes but their hair differed slightly in color. He looked at her with concern in his eyes.

"Hinata-chan are you okay ?"

Hinata looked away from him to look at the floor only for his fingers to pick her chin up.

"What did i tell you about that ?"

She smiled as a single tear streamed down her cheek. He couldn't help but smile back.

"Thank you Neji-Kun."

His smile quickly faded. He eyed her like a hawk as his expression changed to what would look like an old face for a 12 year old but he had barely started school.

''Hinata-Chan , how bad did he hurt you this time ?"

"He's done worse ... but it ... it it still hurts."

Her eyes once again met the floor as she continued to tell her story. She felt bad about making her cousin worry so much about her but it felt good telling someone. By this time they had both migrated to her bed and after a while had changed the topic to something more appropiate for kids their ages to be talking about.

"He he he that's funny Neji-Kun."

"Sooo ... what took you so long getting home today ?"

"umm..." Hinata blushed as the thoughts of the hyperactive blonde ran through her head.

"Eh ?"

"It was nothing ... I uh ... I just ... "

Neji stared in confusion as his cousin turned at least three different shades of red while choking on her own words. His eyebrow twitched in annoyance as she stared at the ground while trying to get out more words.

"Okay Okay Okay." He put a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't hurt yourself hun."

Hinata sighed as she looked nervously back up at her cousin.

" I met someone really nice today."

"You did ?" Neji rose a little in curiousity. Hinata noticed this and blushed again.

"Well who ?" Neji moved closer to her.

"Umm it was ... umm ... you see it was it was ... umm . He wa was ... umm..."

Neji shook her by the shoulders as she completely zoned out. He waved his hand in front of her face.

"Hinata speak to me !"

Hinata drooled a little and some of it splashed on Neji from him shaking her so hard.

"Eww Hinata-chan , grose you drooled on me !"

Hinata instantly snapped out of it and the first thing she saw was Neji's angry face right in front of hers.

"Umm ... bye!"

Hinata jumped off the bed and ran out the door with Neji close behind.

"HINATA ! GET BACK HERE !"

"You're stupid if you think i'm gonna listen to you."

Hinata looked back at her cousin while she continued to run away from him and smiled. She thought to herself , if it wasn't for him she wouldn't know what love was.
