Chap.2
Every Saturday mornings I had to go and meet my brother for breakfast in this outdoor café, we did this every Saturday ever since I started College since then it has become a ritual. I hated yet admired my brother, he always got the attention from my parents while I was tossed off to the side. But yet I admired him because he pretty much inspired me to go after my dreams. . . and that was becoming an artist. Itachi, my brother, would have become the head of the whole entire Uchiha corporation when my father retired but he rebelled against that whole idea and followed his own ideals. Now he's a musician, he's got his own band called "Akatsuki",they were on every music magazine cover. . . the only reason why they were famous was because Itachi was "The son who rebelled against the great Uchiha family." I guess no one expected that, hell I didn't even expect it. Heh Dad has hated him ever since. . . I think he hates me to for letting Itachi influence my me.
I sat there sipping on my coffee when all of a sudden a car came roaring down the street. . . it was Itachi. He parked near the side walk and quickly got out of the car, it looked like he had just gotten out of bed. . . knowing him he probably did.
"Hey Sasuke sorry I'm late"
"You slept in again"
"Yeah" he sat down and began to play with the sugar that was on the table, I just looked at him he was so concentrated on making that sugar mountain. I coughed to get his attention, it did
"So Itachi have you talked to Dad yet?"
"Nah the guy won't talk to me the same way he used to. . . what's the point? Oh but I spoke to mom she's been trying to set me up with some girl, can't she get it in her head that I don't believe in marriage" that was just like him, you see the thing about my brother was he couldn't have just one girl "brother I belong to the world!" that's what he'd always say.
"So what's up with you and that Sakura girl?"
I rolled my eyes at the mere mention of her name, Itachi noticed and smirk
"I'm thinking about just dumping her besides I never liked her anyways"
"Oh so your still interested in that Hyuga girl huh?" I rested my head against the cool table and nodded.
"It's been what 5 years now and you still have that crush?" I don't know why but the way he said it kind of made it sound like I should get over her.
"Yeah so what. . . she's great. . . but she's getting married"
"Oh yeah to who?"
I hesitated for a moment, I'll admit I was embarrassed to tell my brother who I'd kinda lost Hinata to.
"Naruto"
"I'm sorry what?"
"NARUTO!"
Many people around us turned to look at me, Itachi was about to laugh but he kept a straight face.
"Naruto? Isn't he that crazy kid who wanted to be in my band but couldn't play anything"
"Yeah. . . "
Two Summer's ago I had introduced Naruto to my brother and his band, I guess he thought this was his shot at fame so he wanted to show them what he could do. . . he ended up breaking my brother's guitar.
my brother smirked
"Man I feel sorry for you."
I shook my head and again rested it again on the table
"I'm going to their engagement party tonight"
Itachi looked out into the street and began to fumble with the sugar packs again
"look I'll give you some advice, if you really like this girl then you should go after her cause to be honest with you. . . I don't think she'll be happy with him." I looked up and nodded my head, his words somehow hit a trigger. . . determination. I was going to find a way to make Hinata MINE.
When I got back to the apartment Sakura was running from room to room, she looked like she was late for something
"Sakura are you ok?" her head popped out from the side of the door, she was glaring at me
"YOU!! YOU KNEW ABOUT TODAY AND YET YOU STILL DON'T HAVE NOTHING!!"
I was confused, just what the hell was she talking about? I glared back at her
"What the hell are you talking about?" her eyes widened a bit then went back into the room, my clothes were flying everywhere so I rushed into the room, she was violently throwing my clothes out of the closet. At one point I actually thought that she was kicking me out, I felt a bit relieved but then she looked over at me with tears in her eyes and held up one of my shirts.
"We w-were supposed to match!" she began to bawl into my shirt. . . .well that's just great. I patted her shoulder and just so I could shut her up I kissed her on the lips. The kiss was about to elevate but I broke it before anything could happen
"look Sakura it doesn't matter if we match ok. . . um. . . were just going there for. . . for. . "
I couldn't even say it, so she did
"Naruto and Hinata?"
"Y-yeah for them" she smiled at me then handed me my shirt
"well I think this will match it'll go perfect with my red strapless dress!" quickly she handed me my shirt, the one she was just crying on, and gave me a quick peck. The damn shirt had tear stains all over it, it was just a plain grey shirt. . . don't know how it would match, girls saw things differently.
We were late, the party began at four but Sakura took about three hours to get ready! Anyways the party was at Naruto's place, he lived in an upscale apartment not to far from where Sakura and I lived. Hinata wasn't supposed to move in till after they got married. . . thank God! Who knew what kind of evil things he'd do to her. When we got there Sakura went with her friends while I went with Naruto, he was with Shikamaru, Kiba, and Chouji, he noticed me and began to jump up and down like an idiot
"Ah it's Sasuke!!!" he shook the bottle while he said my name.
"Shut-up your annoying me already"
Shikamaru raised an eyebrow up at me
"Already?. . . he's been annoying me all my life"
"Heh good thing I didn't know him too long cause then I would have been just like you Shikamaru" Kiba said, I don't know but I think something happened between Hinata and him.
"Hey you guys! Today is my day! So stop making fun of me, it seems to me like I'm the most responsible one here...I'm getting married for goodness sake!" the guys stayed quiet I looked around their faces, and noticed that they had their jaws opened nearly touching the ground. Suddenly they all bursted out laughing, Naruto on the other hand just frowned at them and began to grumble. My ears strayed away from the conversation while my eyes began to scan through everyone at the party, I was looking for Hinata but she was no where to be found that was till she came inside
"Hinata!" Naruto ran over to her and embraced her. . . I couldn't watch. . . it made me jealous just to see him hold her like that.
Kiba stood next to me and sighed
"Damn she sure gets beautiful everyday" I looked at him, he couldn't stop staring at her, I got curious and wanted to ask him about what happened between Hinata and him. . .if it even did.
"You and Hinata. . . kinda close no?" he looked at me then back at Hinata
"Well we've been best friends since kindergarten so yeah we're close" it wasn't the response I wanted to hear so I decided to press the matter more only he pressed it himself.
"Yeah. . . she and I used to go out" Bingo!
"Really? How did that happen?" he looked around hoping no one would hear our conversation, luckily Shikamaru and Chouji went off to say hi to Hinata.
"I don't even know why I'm telling you this Uchiha, don't tell Naruto alright?"
"Yeah don't worry your secrets safe with me"
he kinda frowned a bit and sighed
"It was right after Naruto dumped her for second time. . . I was there to comfort her but I guess one night I couldn't control my feelings and told her how I felt" Kiba placed his bottle of beer on the counter and began to sigh even more when Hinata looked up at him and smiled.
"She didn't want Naruto or anyone to know. . . it was a secret. . . heh it was fun keeping that secret. . . kept the relationship exciting"
"Yeah seems like it was" I said looking at the dazed Kiba.
"But Naruto got to her, so she decided to go back with him, he didn't even know that she was mine but that's what you get for keeping secrets. . . you want to know something. . . I still love her. . . I think I always will" he stopped staring at her, frustrated he began to kick his foot against
the floor.
"Man I don't even know why I told you this Uchiha" he walked away and said his proper 'hello' to the enchanting angel that stood before us.
Somehow I ended up sitting next to Sakura while she was having her girl talk with her friends. Gaara and his brother and sister had just came minutes before, I could have gone to say hello but I didn't feel like it. That was just like me if I didn't feel like doing something then I didn't do it. I rested my chin on the palm of my hand while I looked over towards the balcony, surprisingly I saw Hinata there by herself. Taking this as my chance to talk to her I got up and headed towards the balcony.
"Hinata"
she turned around, I guess she was surprised it was me since her eyes widened just a bit then in her shy manner began to blush
"Uchiha. . . it's nice to see you" I nodded my head and stood next to her, we stayed silent for a couple of seconds before I spoke
"what're you doing out here. . . shouldn't you be inside with your friends?"
She smiled a little and looked at her hands that were gripping onto the rail
"to be quite honest with you I d-don't have any real friends"
"What about Kiba?"
She quickly looked behind her shoulder to catch a quick glimpse at him, then turned back at the scenery
"I t-think I kinda messed it up"
"Hm I see"
"Yeah."
Silence filled the air around us, the only noise being heard was the cars down below, it was about two minutes later that I began to speak
"if you say you have no friends then why did you come over the other day?"
She looked down at the cars down below and shrugged her shoulders
"Sakura invited me. . . plus I kind of needed someone to t-talk to"
I leaned forward and looked up at her, her eyes looked very sad. I suddenly remembered what Sakura had said that night "Hinata thinks Naruto doesn't really love her" , maybe that's why she's sad at this moment.
I didn't realize that I was still staring at her till she made eye-contact with me and blushed while she quickly looked away
"S-something wrong?" she asked innocently
"No no every things fine"
she continued to look away till she let out a small giggle, it brought joy to me when I heard her
"how's your head by the way?"
My hand reached up to my head and rubbed the sore spot that still lingered there
"oh it's fine I guess"
she smiled then turned towards me and nodded
"Um I n-noticed that you were painting something when I came over"
"Yeah just something for my art class, it's... stupid though"
"I'd like to see it when it's finished. . . and some of your other works" she blushed when I looked at her
"I m-mean that is if you h-have more"
I smirked and nodded my head
"Of course I'll let you know"
we kept staring at each other, the more I looked at her the more red she got but surprisingly she didn't turn away this time that is till Naruto interrupted our moment
"Hey guys get in here Kiba's gonna make a toast."
She looked at me then lowered her gaze sadly as she walked towards Naruto who kissed her on the cheek as she walked by him.
Everyone in the room was holding a glass of champagne as Kiba stood in the middle of the room and began to speak
"Well I've known Hinata since we were kids and she's been like a sister to me, we grew up and then later on we meet Naruto" he paused as he began to process some thoughts then looked up at everyone finally landing his gaze on Naruto and continued on
"You're the perfect guy for her buddy. . . I don't think any guy here will make her happy as you will, you're a lucky guy Naruto just know that. . . you have a goddess among you she's a once in a life time treasure so take good care of her." Kiba looked down and raised his glass above his head then in a sad way said
"Cheers."
I looked at Hinata who had began to cry, not because she was happy, you could tell in her eyes that she was heart broken. She looked at Kiba and he looked back at her, he walked away from the party and into a room. I think maybe she still harbors some feelings towards Kiba, sadly I felt like my heart was breaking in two. I knew that Kiba had just lied to all of us ;everything he just said must have been heartbreaking to say.
Hinata had somehow disappeared, I had asked Naruto where she had gone but he was to drunk to comprehend what I was saying. The music started playing really loudly and the dancing had begun, Sakura saw me and ran over to me
"Sasuke I wanna dance! C'mon!" she grabbed my arm and attempted to pull me onto the dance floor
"I'm not into dancing. . .I'm actually quite busy right now!"
"What!? I can't hear you!!"
I pulled my arm and shook my head
"NOT NOW!" I walked into the hall so that I was away from all that noise, that was when I heard Hinata. I walked towards a door that was slightly opened, I saw her in there with Kiba, I knew it was wrong to eavesdrop but ah. . . whatever. Hinata was still crying while Kiba just sat on the bed in front of her.
"I d-don't k-know what to d-do anymore. . . I'm so confused"
"What do you want me to say Hinata? Huh? What do you want?"
"Kiba p-please. . y-you know that I l-love you still" she whispered out the last part, Kiba just covered his face with his hands and sighed
"you picked Naruto the first time"
"No I didn't! You picked for me. . . you said that I'd be happier with him I'm not Kiba. . I'm not happy"
"Still you were so in love with him. . . you wanted him"
"No! No I don't! I want you right now!" I was a bit surprised, she wasn't stuttering or blushing. . Kiba sighed and got up from the bed as he walked towards Hinata, they stood still till Kiba pushed her up against a wall and kissed her passionately. For some reason I didn't feel jealous, just sad. . .
He had stopped kissing her and held her hands for a while
"I'll always love you. . . always" he kissed her again then he pulled away from her and said
"Bye Hinata"
tears fell from her eyes
"Bye Kiba"
I left before they saw me, all that was proof enough. . . so she was still in love with Kiba. I sighed I wanted to make her mine before Naruto got her, to hell with friendship she was going to be mine. . I was gonna make her forget about Naruto and Kiba. . . she was going to be mine.
