Release me from pain

Chapter seventeen: What about Hinata?

"He... He has a daughter?" thought extremely shocked Hinata. She didn´t now why it hurt so much when she heard that. Tears welled in her eyes and she covered her mouth with her hand so Itachi or that woman couldn´t hear her.

"If he has a daughter... Then there is no place to me in his life anymore... That child... she needs both of her parents..." Hinata thought and silently ran away from Itachi´s apartment complex and from his life.

"Say hello to my what?" Itachi asked and stared at his ex-girlfriend. She just smiled at him brightly.

"You heard me, dear. This is your daughter." Kin stated and stepped by Itachi to his apartment. Itachi just stared at her like she had three heads or something.

"My... daughter?"

"Yes yes, your daughter, what part you don´t understand?" replied now frustrated Kin.

"You come here after a long time and say that this child is mine?"

"Yes! Exactly. And I expect you to be a good father and be a part of her life." Kin said and gave the baby to Itachi, who still didn´t want to believe that he had a daughter.

"This can´t be possible..." He muttered and looked the baby in his arms.

"Yes it is. I´m sure you know how babies are created." Kin said sarcastically. Itachi shot her a death glare.

"How can you be so sure that she is mine?" Itachi shot back, and there was a flash of uncertainty in her eyes, before she answered.

"Of course it´s yours. Why would I be here f she wasn´t yours?" She said and crossed her arms over her chest. Itachi doubted her words. After all, she had cheated on him. Suddenly Itachi thought about Hinata. How would she react if she found out? Itachi decided to tell her if the child really was his. He wanted to do a paternity test first. Itachi was pulled back to reality when there was a loud knock on his door and thne Deidara´s voice yelled:

"Itachi! Let me in quickly! Sasori is trying to kill me!" Itachi sighed and opened the door and immediately Deidara ran inside and hid behind Itachi´s back.

"Deidara! There is no use hiding!" Sasori yelled and ran inside too. He quickly noticed Deidara behind Itachi´s back and grabbed him from the back of his neck. Deidara yelped and tried to struggle free.

"I´m sorry Sasori, yeah! I didn´t mean to do that, yeah!"

"That doesn´t change the fact that you interrupted me while I was seducing our new neighbor!" Sasori yelled angrily.

"Will you two shut up? You are going to wake my daughter up!" Kin yelled and took the baby from Itachi´s arms. Deidara and Sasori turned to look at her, their faces showed disgust. They had never liked Kin, because they thought she was annoying and yelled too much to them.

"Kin? What the hell are you doing here?" Sasori asked and let go of Deidara´s neck.

"I just came to introduce Maron to Itachi."

"Maron? Who´s she, yeah?" Deidara asked and rubbed his neck.

"Maron is Itachi´s daughter." Kin stated calmly, enjoying Sasori´s and Deidara´s shocked faces.

"SHE IS ITACHIS WHAT?!" They both yelled and looked at Itachi. Itachi just rubbed his temples, completely ignoring his friends. That wasn´t very wise, because both, Deidara and Sasori, jumped on Itachi and tackled him on the ground.

"WHAT THE HELL DOES SHE MEAN, YEAH?!" Deidara yelled and tried to punch Itachi, but he grabbed Deidara´s fist before it connected to his face. The reason why they were so mad was simple: They both liked Hinata very much. And besides she baked cookies for them

"Listen to me, Deidara -" Itachi started, but Deidara started yelling again.

"HOW COME YOU DIDNT KNOW ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER? OR DID YOU KNOW ABOUT HER ALL THIS TIME, YEAH?! WHAT ABOUT HINATA, YEAH?! DID YOU-" Itachi had punched Deidara on his stomach to stop his yelling. It was really becoming annoying. He shoved him and Sasori away from him and stood up.

"Would you two just shut up for a moment?" Itachi growled and dusted his clothes. "No, Deidara, I didn´t know about her before this day. And this won´t affect much to my and Hinata´s relationship." Itachi said calmly.

"How can you be so sure about that?" Sasori asked and helped Deidara up.

"Itachi, you are one big jerk, yeah.." Deidara muttered.

"Who´s Hinata?" Kin asked and raised her eyebrown.

"Hinata is Itachi´s future wife, yeah." Deidara blurted out.

"No she isn´t once she finds out about Itachi´s daughter..." Sasori whispered and unfortunately Itachi heard that. If looks could kill, Sasori and Deidara would have been dead a long time ago.

"Future wife?" asked shocked Kin.

"Well, almost. I haven´t proposed to her yet." Itachi said. Why had life to be so damn complicated? Kin frowned at this, but didn´t say anything. Itachi noticed this and couldn´t help but wonder.

"Did she really think that I would take her back just because we have a daughter? If so, she´s stupider than I ever thought." Like hell Itachi would even consider about taking Kin back, not now when he had Hinata.

Sunday came and Itachi was waiting for Hinata at the railway station. The train came, but Hinata was not there.

"Maybe she got home earlier and was to tired to call to me." Itachi thought and decided to go to see if she was at her apartment.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Itachi knocked once. Then he knocked twice. No answer.

"Uchiha-san?" came a small voice from behind him. He turned around and saw an old woman smiling at him.

"Chiyo-san." Chiyo was Hinata´s neighbor, very nice old lady.

"Are you looking for Hinata-chan?" She asked and smiled.

"Yes. Do you know where she might be?" Itachi asked. Chiyo raised her eyebrown.

"I thought she told you. She has moved to Kyoto." Chiyo exclaimed. Itachi´s eyes widened slightly.

"She what?"

"I said she has moved to Kyoto." Chiyo said it like talking to a child.

"Why?" Chiyo just shrugged.

"I´m not sure. She just said she couldn´t live here anymore."

"What the hell is that woman thinking? Why didn´t she tell me anything?" Itachi thought angrily.

"Thanks, Chiyo." Itachi said and stormed away. He was going to go to Kyoto to find out why she had ran away without telling him.

"Now, where should I start looking for her?" That was an excellent question. After all Kyoto was a big city.

"Maybe she´s living with her cousin." Luckily, Itachi knew where Neji lived. So he took a taxi and headed towards Neji´s apartment.

Itachi couldn´t believe his luck. Hinata had stepped out of the apartment building just before Itachi got out from the taxi. He quickly paid to the driver and ran after Hinata. They would solve this thing right now.

Hinata didn´t seem to notice Itachi as he walked behind her. With few quick steps Itachi was right next to her, his hand on her shoulder. She gasped in surprise and turned to look at th owner of the hand.

"I-I-Itachi!" She stuttered and backed away until her back hit against the wall. Itachi stepped closer and put his hands next to her head. She wouldn´t run away now. No if Itachi could help that.

"Why?" Itachi asked and Hinata knew what he meant. She turned her head away, trying to force back the tears. She had wished Itachi to not to come looking for her.

"I-I...umm..." Hinata couldn´t get the words out of her mouth. Itachi put his finger under her chin and lifter her head so she was looking into his eyes. His eyes were demanding for answer.

"I-I d-don´t t-think t-there i-is a p-place f-for m-me i-in y-your l-life a-anymore..." Hinata whispered quietly, tears falling down her cheeks.

AN: It seems like it takes me longer and longer to update... Well the reason is simple. The weather has been so damn nice! Windy and rainy, so perfect! I have spent most of my time outside, listening to the stories of the rain. Sounds stupid, huh? Maybe it is but I love it! By the way should I end Hinata´s and Itachi´s relationship? Should I be that cruel?
