When we got to the hospital it was utter chaos with about five nurses smothering me. They backed up when they caught sight of my companion and I couldn't be more thankful. I sorted out the room assignments before rushing to emergency to see it filled with Nin
"Hinata I need you to take left while I take the right!" I nodded to Sakura who seemed as in charge and unstoppable force as ever. I gave my attention to the nurses while I activated my eyes to assess the patients. It wasn't long till I was on my first patient with Pein right behind me like a pillar of strength I didn't know I needed till I knew what it felt like to have one.
7 hours later
I was sitting face down on my desk in my office with sore muscles, stinging eyes and tired everything.
"I'm impressed Hinata its no wonder this hospital is the best in all the lands. You and Sakura are such opposites her with her overwhelming force that was like a punch to the gut and you with your comforting aura like a stroke to the hair." Despite my exhaustion I smiled at him before my desk was hit with my head. I didn't bother to pay attention to the scraping of his chair or the footsteps that approached me. When his hands landed on my shoulders I sat up in attention.
"Relax Hinata, I won't do anything you don't want me to." I frowned trying to understand what the hell he meant but when his hands started moving and rubbing my back, all thought disappeared.
"Kami…" He chuckled and continued to rub while I closed my eyes. I don't remember having this much pleasure in my entire life time.
"Pein..Kami…" His hands stopped and I whimpered at the loss of contact.
"I warned you if you do things like that I would have no trouble bringing you into temptation Hinata." His breath was hot on my ear but when his cold piercing slid across my ear I had goose bumps.
"I can't help it with you." My eyes widened with horror as I covered my traitorous mouth.
I looked up into singeing eyes as I felt myself melt. Then I did something I promised myself I would never do, I closed my eyes. That was all he needed as he leaned down and closed the distance. The first contact was just the feeling having his lips on mine but when he groaned and swiveled my chair to face him he took no time to waste. He opened my lips and slipped his tongue in while my stomach was flipping around like popcorn, my head was dizzy and I was really happy I was sitting down for this.
"Hinata!" I jumped and broke apart by leaning back so far the chair flipped backward so I went rolling while Pein laughed before coming to help me.
I got up just in time to see my door slammed open with a very angry blonde and her teammate.
"Ino-chan, Chouji-san I wasn't doing anything with Pein-sama!" Pein shot me an amused smirk while I blushed at my outburst.
"Hinata how could let Shikamaru leave? You were the one person who could stop him but you didn't care!"
"Ino-chan, Nara-san is a grown man he makes his own choice-"
"No he should have stayed by me not leave Konoha for that whore! You fucked up Hinata just admit it! After all these years you're still Kami-damn useless!"
"Shut up girl, you do realize you don't have to yell in order for us to here you." I gaped at Pein who was glaring at Ino and Chouji.
"Stay the fuck out of this you bastard!"
"Why should I stand by and watch you cause Hinata pain? Don't blame Hinata if you took your teammate for granted and lost the man you might only ever love because of your arrogance and pride."
"You fucking asshole you don't know anything!"
"I know that it's you who is useless and its Hinata who is irreplaceable, that is all I need to know." She screamed and tried to attack Pein but I was faster for her sake I had to be. I held her while she struggled against me but she soon gave up and clung to me.
"You see how you depend on her Ino? How you all need her?" Ino with a cry pushed me back to land on my ass but Pein was there to catch me.
"I don't need her! Konoha would be fine with or with out her. She needs us! We don't need her so don't pretend you know a damn thing!"
I looked down at my feet and pushes away from Pein to sit at my desk.
"If that's everything team ten then I'm going to have to ask you to leave."
"Hinata-chan-"
"She means it boy, you've out stayed your welcome." I watched as Pein closed the door in Chouji's and Ino's faces.
"Everything is going to be aright Hinata, I'm here right beside you." I laughed bitterly at his words, his grip on my shoulders tightened.
"You don't believe me?"
"How can I believe anyone? One day you'll betray me just like the others."
"I promise Hinata my dear I'm not like the others." I leaned and relaxed into my chair as his promise made today just a little bit brighter.

I walked out of the hospital, my footsteps dragging behind me.
"Hinata watch where you're going my dear." Pein tucked me into his side as I barely missed the pole that in my opinion had jumped out at me.
"What day is it?"
"Sunday."
"Crap, I have a clan gathering to go to."
"I thought you were exiled."
"Self exile, I gave my position to Hanabi because they were going to give her the cursed seal last month."
"That sounds like you." I was too tired to figure out what he meant but I was thankful of his hand on my back leading me toward the compound.
"Hinata-sama they are expecting you." I nod at the guards thinking the last time some one said that to me which was Friday and look at how my life has changed. I walked past the eyes that had once been nothing but judgmental but now there was nothing in them. I slid the doors of the council room open and the room tensed as they caught sight of my companion.
"What is that?" My eye twitched at their manners but Pein reacted in good calm fashion.
"Your Hokage has charged Hinata with watching over me so you'll have to deal with my presence. Of course if you have a problem then you are more then welcome to challenge your Hokage." I hid my smirk at Pein's ability to put the great Hyuuga in their place.
"Shall we get started then?"
The meeting was boring and the only thing that kept me awake was Pein who held on to my ankle and gave it light squeezes to keep me alert.
"So the party and the ceremony go on as planned placed on this weekend, any questions?" My body tensed as Pein's hand rose in the air.
"What is it that you want?" Pein wrapped his whole hand around my ankle and held on.
"I was just wondering about something, you see the ceremony you speak of takes about a month to prepare, the paperwork about four months and that's doing everything correct and lastly all the party preparations seemed to have been made a year in advance correct?"
The elders looked at each other and rolled their eyes at the man beside me.
"Yes you would be correct anything else?"
"Yes you see I find it strange that Hinata here gave up her position only a month ago where as all these preparations you talk about we're set in motion long before that. It makes me wonder if you some how knew she would step down."
My eyes widened but the council member held even more shocked expressions.
"Are you suggesting we plotted Hinata-san's downfall?"
"Well from what Hinata tells me she and Hanabi never really had a relationship because you were afraid her weakness would spread toward her younger siblings. Then one day all that pressure on keep them apart and then Hanabi all the sudden needs Hinata to protect her. I heard rumors but I never thought her own family would turn against her."
"Hinata don't believe this man over your own family." I narrowed my eyes at the council then toward my own father.
"You swear on mother's grave that isn't true father and I will not doubt you." The grip on my ankle tightened but I paid no heed.
"I swear." I nodded and my body relaxes but the grip tightens.
"Hinata my dear I'm not happy you don't trust me but I will let it slide. Tell them to show you the clan head scroll. If they are telling you the truth then it should have your name with a line through it because they have had to been preparing this party for you in order to have it this quick." I nodded and got up heading toward the glass cabinet that held the scroll. I never really looked, not wanting to see my name crossed off but what if he was right?
"Hinata how dare you trust this lying bastard over your own family that has raised and protected you?"
'Because father he is not the one lying to me! My name has never touched that scroll!"
"Oh for Kami-sake I don't understand why we play this rouse? Sister you are weak and pathetic and everyone in this clan agrees that is why we all plotted for you to step down on your own as so not to piss of that Hokage. Nobody gives a damn about you and that time I spent with you made me sick with weakness and disgust. Even your precious Neji-Nisan agreed you could never be strong enough to lead us! After all he did suggest to you to hand over your throne in exchange for my life right? Poor sister the look on your face is so pathetic why don't you just disappear?" Nobody said anything and no one met my eyes.
"Time to go my dear if these fools are stupid enough not to see how much they need you then that will be their downfall. You will disappear one day and they will be left with nothing but a self destroying clan. Thank you hyuuga's for this." Pein guided my shocked body through the village to a small cafe where he sat me down in a small corner where his bigger body hid mine from view.
"I heard rumors but I'm sorry you had to find out that way. Hinata you are not weak, you know the true meaning of pain." I nodded not wanting to say anything for fear I might say something I can't take back.
