Ever since the day Naruto had brought her along with him to listen to their band play, she had been going everyday to listen to them play. She always became very good friends with all of the males of the band.

They were all very happy that she would come to listen to them play even more happy whenever she took time out to come watch them perform in a club. To them Hinata was like the bands little pet, sounds strange in other people's ears if they would hear one of them say this but it was true. She was like the light to their band, always smiling and cheering them on. Each one of the band members from Naruto to Shinichi looked out for Hinata and now they all refer to her as the nickname Shinichi dubbed her with…sunshine.

Five weeks has passed so far and in between those five weeks Hinata spends most of her time either hanging out with Naruto and his band or with Sasuke and Sakura. She always feels like the third wheel whenever she's with Sasuke and Sakura but she enjoys being around them whenever she can be.

"Hina-chan…have you heard from or seen Deidara since that day?" Asked the raven haired male who was lying down on his couch looking up at the ceiling. Hinata had come to visit him earlier and has been there for about two hours already.

"Mmm…no I haven't" She whispered lowly as she looked down at her lap. Sasuke glanced over at her noticing her tone as he sat up. He didn't like seeing her so down so he decided to change the subject.

"So are you going with Naruto and his band to see them perform at the club? Sakura and I will be going and if you'll like we could take you there with us?" Hinata looked over at him as her eyes went brighter as she smiled happily.

"Oh I would love to come along. The Unions are a very good band, I'm their number one fan" She grinned. Sasuke smiled warmly at her when he noticed her happy smile. He was happy to know that she could be happy while being around Naruto's band that much. At first it sort of nerved him how much Naruto would brag about how much he enjoys Hinata coming to watch them play. He had thought that the blonde had eyes for Hinata but he didn't dare to ask because he didn't want Naruto to get any ideas that he liked Hinata, he was only protective over her…very protective.

"Great they will be performing later on tonight, Sakura and I will pick you up around eight tonight" He stated as he stood up from the couch looking down at her. "In the mean time come with me to the store, I need to pick up a few things" Hinata nodded her head as she stood up from the chair and smiled.

"Sure I'll come with you" He smiled as he nodded her at her. "Well come on let's go"

Shinichi and Kiba were currently walking on their way towards Hinata's apartment building. "Sugoi! Sunshine really lives here?" Shinichi asked as he looked up at the apartment building with wide eyes.

Kiba grinned widely. "Hai, it is very nice" He smiled as the two were making their way into the apartment building. "Hrm, what is her apartment number?" Shinichi asked as he started looking around at all the doors.

"She's at the very top floor. Apartment number 508" Kiba said as he walked to the elevator. Shinichi followed as they walked into the elevator and pressed the button as the elevator doors closed and they went up.

Once they reached her floor they began looking around for her apartment. "Ah! Here it is here. I can't wait to tell sunshine we're performing at that popular club, she'll be happy for us" Shinichi grinned as he walked towards the door to knock on it. But was stopped when he heard a male's voice.

"She's not home" Both Kiba and Shinichi turned to look at the male. He was not so tall but he wasn't short either, he had silver hair tied back in a pony tail. Kiba looked at the male as he nodded his head wearing glasses.

"You must be from that band that she talked about so much, I'm Kabuto it's nice to meet you" He smiled. Shinichi just stared at him for awhile before actually speaking.

"So you are good friends with Sunshine?"

Kabuto raised an eyebrow as he started to chuckle. "Sunshine? Ah well yes Hinata and I are quite aquatinted with each other" He smiled at them. Kiba and Shinichi slightly frowned not liking the way that sound.

"Well I'll tell Hinata when she comes home they you two stopped by" He smiled as he began to walk back into his apartment but Shinichi's voice stopped him.

"When you say that you're well aquatinted with sunshine what do you mean?" Shinichi asked as he narrowed his eyes at him.

"Whatever you think it means, well goodbye" Kabuto smirked as he walked back into his apartment and closed the door. When he left Kiba and Shinichi looked at each other for a moment before looking back at his door.

"I don't trust that guy" Shinichi mumbled.

"Yeah me either…come on let's just go" Kiba said as he began walking.

Deidara looked over at Ino who had just finished telling him about going to some little band concert. "I don't know Ino…I honestly don't feel like going"

"Aw but Sasuke-san and Sakura-chan are going to be there, it'll be fun" She grinned at him widely. Deidara sighed as he just shook his head, after knowing the fact that Sasuke and Sakura were going to be there he defiantly didn't want to go because he knew that Hinata may be there as well. He didn't want to even see Hinata anytime soon after what he had told her.

"No I'll just stay home, but you go and have some fun, okay?" He smiled at her as he reached his hand out and ruffled her hair. She smiled happily up at him.

"Ah, there is Naruto" Sasuke mumbled as he looked up ahead to see Naruto looking down at some magazine's. Hinata smiled as she looked at the blonde.

"Let's go say hi Sasuke-kun"

"Eh, I rather not…I don't feel like being bothered by the-"

"Hi Naruto-kun" Sasuke sighed to himself when he realized that Hinata had already made her way towards the blonde. Naruto turned around as he looked at Hinata as he grinned widely at her.

"Hello Sunshine! And Sasuke you're here too, eh?" Naruto smiled as he set the magazine that he was holding down. "I was coming to visit you later to give you a ticket to our little show tonight but I didn't have time so I asked Shin and Kiba to go in my place" Naruto stated to the female Hyuga. Naruto really liked Hinata but not in a way where he wants to date her, he cares for her a lot and looks after her. He always tells Shinichi whenever they're alone that Hinata is the light to their band…their little pet. She's always so kindhearted and smiling brightly bringing a smile to their faces.

The blonde glanced over at Sasuke watching him as he was taking short glances over at Hinata. He knew something didn't seem right when he came to Hinata, he felt as if Sasuke were in love with his little pet but he didn't feel it was in his place to ask his best friend such a question knowing it would result in him getting punched in the eye. He chuckled to himself a bit as he looked back over at Hinata when he heard her soft voice.

"Ano, Sasuke-kun told me about the concert and I'm happy for you guys. I'll be in the audience cheering you o-on" She smiled happily at the male. Naruto smiled warmly at her while nodding his head.

"I'm glad that your come Sunshine"

Sasuke slightly grunted at the nickname. When he first heard Naruto call Hinata that he was two seconds from clobbering him but didn't when Shinichi told him that it was him who came up with the nickname for Hinata. Sasuke trusted Shinichi enough to know he didn't mean any harm in calling her that, it was just his way of calling her that because to him Hinata brings so much light into the band whenever she's near them that he decided to call her that.

"So Naruto you think this concert that you guys have going on tonight might be your big break?" Sasuke asked.

Naruto looked down at the ground for a moment as he slowly lifted his head again to look over at his friend. "I'm hoping so…I mean this is everything to us and we really want this to work out for us" The blonde took a pause as he then smiled. "So I hope that tonight will be the night our band makes it big"

Sasuke smirked while Hinata smiled at him. They both wanted 'The Unions' to make it big. Sasuke being Naruto's best friend since they were younger knows how much this means to him and even though he may not tell his best friend this but he wants them to make it big because just like Hinata…Sasuke is also a fan of Naruto's band music.

"Well I have to get going now, I need to practice with the band before tonight" Naruto glanced back down at the magazine he was looking at as he picked it up and began walking towards the front to pay for it but he stopped and turned back around to look at the two.

"Do you want me to maybe pick you pick later, Sunshine?" Before Hinata could even answer Sasuke spoke.

"Iie, she's coming with Sakura and I, so we'll see you there" Naruto stared at Sasuke for a few seconds before smiling as he turned around and continued walking while waving.

"Okay then…later"

Sasuke watched Naruto leave as he looked back down at Hinata and smiled. "Shall we finish shopping?" She giggled and nodded her head.

The silver haired male sighed while he was sitting down on his couch looking at a flyer that was in his hand. "So The Unions are playing tonight at that new club, eh?" He smirked to himself as he looked up from the paper.

"Those two kids that came earlier to visit that Hyuga woman…they're from that band playing tonight aren't they?" The red haired male asked as he held his guitar in his hands.

"Yeah that was them. Heh, it looks like our band is performing before theirs" Kabuto stated as he looked at the times on the paper.

"Hey, why don't you ask Hinata-san to come watch us play?" The blonde girl asked as she smiled eagerly. Kabuto remained silent for a bit a he soon parted his lips to speak.

"I suppose I could ask her to come. I'll ask her later on tonight…" The red headed male looked at Kabuto as he sighed.

"Do you like that Hyuga woman or something? I honestly don't see what you see in her…she's too fragile and just too innocent for my taste"

Kabuto slightly frowned as he set down the flyer on the table. "Hinata is a very beautiful woman Gaara! The only reason you can't see that is because you like women who act just like you" Gaara scoffed as he looked away from Kabuto.

"That's not true…that Hyuga-"

"That Hyuga has a name and it's Hinata!" The blonde woman snapped at the red head.

"Geez, not you too Temari" Gaara sighed once more. "Anyhow like I was saying, Hinata is too nice, sometimes I wonder if it's all just an act. To put it plain and simple I do not like her" Gaara hissed out earning glares from Kabuto and Temari.

As the three were sitting there they heard a door shut close. "Ah it sounds like Hinata-san is home" Temari grinned while Gaara grunted.

"Well I'll go ask her now…I'll be back" Kabuto said as he stood up and walked out the door. While the silver haired male was walking towards her door he noticed Sasuke still standing in front of her door…just standing there. He has noticed this once before whenever the Uchiha comes over to visit Hinata that when he gets ready to leave he'll just stand in front of Hinata's door just staring at the door. He wonders what goes on his mind but doesn't ask seeing that he and the Uchiha aren't that good of friends but they will speak to each other if they see each other. He waited there for a moment until the Uchiha leaves and he finally did.

"…What a weird guy…"

He thought to himself as he finally made himself in front of Hinata's door. He knocked on it a good two times before the door flew opened.

"Ah Kabuto-kun! What brings you here?" She smiled as she looked up at the male. He blushed deeply as he scratched the back of his head. He didn't know what he was about Hinata that drew him towards her but he liked Hinata a lot and he was very aware that Hinata knew this since he often makes it very obvious.

"Well you see my band is performing tonight at the Dior club and well I wanted to know if you'll come watch us."

Hinata paused for a moment gathering up her thoughts as she soon spoke. "Ah well I'll be going there tonight anyways. My friends are playing in that same club as well" She smiled. Kabuto's eyebrow slightly twitched as he nodded his head.

"Ah I see…well you'll still watch us play as well right?" He asked in a hopeful but yet seductive tone which caused Hinata to blush.

"A-Ano hai! Of course Ka-Kabuto-kun" He smiled as he nodded his head as he slowly leaned forward and give her a kiss on her cheek.

"I'm glad…Hinata" He smiled as he leaned away from her as he let his hand caress her cheek. Hinata didn't know what to think or do at the moment as she stared up at the male while blushing. Although she just has a HUGE crush on her best friend Uchiha Sasuke she also likes Kabuto but she tends to become very shy around him. But the other part of Hinata wanted to get to know Kabuto more but she was just too shy.

I'm in engaged

Deidara's words came to her mind once more causing her to frown as she looked back up at Kabuto with a determined expression. She had to move on, she couldn't just hang onto Deidara anymore when he wasn't even in love with her like she is with him nor can she be tied to Sasuke who already has a girlfriend. She looked up at Kabuto as she parted her lips to speak. "A-Ano would Kabuto-kun like to come over s-sometime?" She mentally cursed herself for stuttering but patted herself on the back for even having courage to say it.

Kabuto smirked as he looked down at her. "Why sure I would love that Hinata…how about I come by after the concert tonight?" Hinata nodded her head as she watched him take a step back as he began to walk away.

"Well I'll see you then Hinata…" She smiled as she nodded her head watching him as he walked back to his apartment door as she closed her door with a smile on her face.

The night was coming soon and it was time to get ready to leave. Shinichi and Kiba were already at the club tuning up their instruments when they heard Kakashi talking with someone. When they stood up to see who they're drummer was talking to their eyes widen.

"I-It's The Loners! It's really them" Kiba and Shinichi shouted out loudly as they rushed to greet the band. "Gah! Kakashi I didn't know that you knew this band!" Shinichi grinned at the band.

"Heh, I thought that you would recognize me from earlier…" The male smirked.

"I-It's you! The same guy who lives next door to Sunshine" Kiba pointed out. Shinichi looked at the male as he narrowed his eyes a bit as they widened. It was in fact the same male from earlier. He couldn't believe the most popular local band of all of Tokyo, Japan was standing right in front of him moreover than that the lead bass guitarist lived right next door to Hinata.

"You guys must not have recognized me because my hair was pulled back into a ponytail. I'm Kabuto the guitarist of The Loners and this here is Gaara the other bass guitarist and his sister Temari the lead singer of our band. Our drummer is up front somewhere but his name is Kankurou" He introduced them all to each other. Shinichi was just too shocked to say anything. He idolized Kabuto and how well he played his guitar that he soon forgot how he didn't trust the guy.

"How do you know them Kakashi?"

"Ah well you see I don't actually know them" The silver older male laughed nervously. "I was just introducing myself to them and talking with them and that's when you two came over here" Kiba and Shinichi sigh but turned they're heads when they heard Naruto's voice.

"Hey you guys! Uzumaki Naruto is here" Kiba sighed while Shinichi grinned. Kabuto and Gaara looked over at the blonde for a moment as Gaara soon spoke.

"So you're the lead singer of this band?" Naruto turned too look at Gaara as he nodded his head. "Hm, I see…" Gaara scoffed causing the band members of The Unions for frown.

"What was that noise for?" Naruto snapped loudly at the red head trying to make his way towards the guy but a voice stopped him.

"Ne everyone do your best" Everyone paused to turn around to see Hinata along with Sasuke, Sakura and Ino standing behind them. Naruto smiled warmly as he turned around to speak but Shinichi beat him in speaking first.

"SUNSHINE!" Shinichi yelled out happily as he ran towards the Hyuga and hugged her. "I'm glad that you are here" He smiled happily as he rubbed his face on her stomach trying to cuddle closer towards the woman he calls his pet.

Hinata smiled as she blushed from embarrassment while patting the top of the male's head. "A-Ah Shin-chan"

"I think that's enough kiddo" Kakashi chuckled as he dragged Shinichi away from Hinata causing Shinichi to cry big anime tears while holding out his arms to Hinata begged to be back into her arms.

"I swear that kid acts like a big baby sometimes" Kiba sighed to himself thinking about the fifteen year old Shinichi. Kabuto grunted to himself as he looked at the scene before him noticing how Hinata had not recognize that he was even there until he heard a loud scream.

"GAH! It's really the Loners! And there's Kabuto!" Ino screamed out loudly as she ran towards him. "I'm Ino, I'm such a HUGE FAN! I love your music and the lyrics they're just so…so GREAT! I'm not from here but my friend lives here and she records your concerts all of the time and sends them over to me and I just love it" Kabuto chuckled at the woman before him.

"Ah well thank you…Gaara here writes the lyrics to our music" Ino turned to look at Gaara who stared at her blankly but he then smirked.

"You really write those lyrics?" Ino asked as she looked at the male. Gaara merely nodded his head as his eyes gazed over at Kabuto when he noticed him making his way over towards Hinata. He sighed and shook his head but turned back to look at Ino who started talking to him.

"So I'm glad to see you here Hinata-chan" He smiled happily at her. She blushed deeply and quickly shot her head down trying to hide her blush. Sasuke who was across the room with Sakura speaking to Naruto watched the two carefully as he narrowed his eyes.

"Hai, I'm glad to s-see you as well Kabuto-kun" He grinned but his grin went away when he heard the announcers voice announcing that there band was up next.

"Ah well it seems like we're up next Hinata-chan…" He smirked at her as he turned around from her and grabbed his guitar and walked towards his band out unto the stage. Once they were gone out of sight Sasuke walked towards her.

"Hey I never knew that you two were close? I mean I know that you two live right next door to each other but I never thought that-"

"You live NEXT DOOR to Kabuto?" Ino nearly shouted while Hinata nodded her head slowly. She couldn't understand why Ino was going to crazy over that small little fact; it wasn't like Kabuto was a really famous celebrity. Hinata eyes slightly widened when she heard the band starting their song.

"Oh no! They're starting now, I told Kabuto-san that I'll listen to them play" Hinata then rushed out the back to the front while Ino soon followed leaving just Sasuke and Sakura along with the band members of The Unions left.

"Well aren't you two going to see how they play" Kakashi asked as he looked at Sasuke and Sakura.

The raven haired male shrugged his shoulders. "I can care less how they play. Besides I didn't come here to listen to them" Hearing this come from Sasuke cause Naruto to smile widely as he ran towards Sasuke and hugged him.

"I knew that you were a fan of our music Sasuke-teme" Naruto yelled loudly in the Uchiha's ears. Sasuke tried pushing Naruto away from him as he held a deep scowl on his face.

"Hai, same here I only came to listen to The Unions play" Sakura stated while smiling at the band. Kiba and Shinichi smirked while Kakashi smiled from behind his mask.

"Arigatou you guys" Naruto smiled at both Sasuke and Sakura as he finally let go of Sasuke.

Hinata looked around noticing how crowded it was as The Loners begun to play their music. She looked around noticing how people were screaming Kabuto, Gaara's and Temari and Kankurou's name. She looked over at Ino who wore a huge smile on her face as she looked up at the band. She wanted so badly to ask about Deidara but knew now wasn't the time. Her head turned back towards the stage when she heard both Gaara and Kabuto playing their guitars while Kankurou began lightly playing the drums as Temari started to sing.

Catch me as I fall

Say you're here and it's all over

Speaking to the atmosphere

No one's here and I fall into myself

This truth drives me into madness

I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away

Don't turn away

Don't give in to the pain

Don't try to hide

Through they're screaming your name

Don't close your eyes

God knows what lies behind them

Don't turn out the light

Never sleep never die

I'm frightening by what I see

But somehow I know there's much more to come

Immobilized by my fear

As Hinata was listening to the lyrics she had to admit they were very good lyrics and was even more shocked that Gaara is the person who writes the lyrics for the band. She looked over at Gaara who wore a scowl while playing his guitar, seeming to be lost in his own thoughts as he was playing. Gaara soon looked up to find Hinata staring at him causing him to glare at her and quickly turn his head away from her.

"Did he just glare at me? But why would he do that?" She wondered to herself as she looked away from him and continued looking at Temari who was singing.

And soon to be blinded by tears

I can stop the pain if I will it all away

Don't turn away

Don't give in to the pain

Don't try to hide

Through they're screaming your name

Don't close your eyes

God knows what lies behind them

Don't turn out the light

Never sleep never die

Fallen angels at my feet

Whispered voice at my ear

Death before my eyes

She beckons me shall I give in

Upon my end shall I begin

Forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end

Hinata listened as the crowd went crazy as the band finished their song. Hinata has to admit they were a very good band and she smiled happily clapping her hands together. Her eyes locked with Kabuto's for the longest until he smirked at her before breaking the eye contact. She blushed faintly and soon looked away as well. Ino seemed to have noticed this as she smiled to herself.

"Thank you!" Temari yelled into the microphone as she grinned widely at the crowd. After a few minutes the band began to leave the stage to go back stage as a tall man came to the microphone.

"And that was The Loners, up next is the uh—"The male looked down at the paper that was in his hand and looked back at the crowd. "The Unions" He finished as he walked off the stage. Hinata noticed the whispering among the crowd.

"Who are The Unions?"

"I don't know…probably another local band that's a low profile band"

"Yeah come on let's leave"

Hinata watched as people started to leave the club and she started to panic. She wanted them to hear them play not leave without at least hearing them. "Oh no! They're leaving" Ino whispered to Hinata before looking on the stage to see Naruto along with the rest of the band coming onto stage.

Hinata looked around as she inhaled before exhaling and opened her mouth. "Please everyone don't leave! The Unions are the best band in Tokyo Japan" She shouted causing everyone to look over her way. Everyone had now stopped walking as a few people approached Hinata.

"Oh yeah?" One male asked looking slightly skeptically about actually staying to listen to the band.

"Hai! They're music is the best" Hinata stated proudly with a smile. Naruto smiled warmly as he listened to Hinata's little speech trying to get people to stay to listen to them.

"That's our little sunshine" Each member of the band thought to themselves as they smiled at the female Hyuga. Sasuke who wasn't standing too far away smiled to himself as well.

"Heh" Sakura looked over at Sasuke noticing him staring at Hinata as she looked down with a saddened expression on her face.

"Alright everyone listen and listen well! We are The Unions! And this is our song!" Naruto yelled loudly into the microphone. Soon the band began to play they're instruments as Naruto began to start singing.

I dreamed I was missing

You were so scared

But no one would listen

Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming

I woke with this fear

What am I leaving

When I'm done here

So if you're asking me I want you to know

When my time comes

Forget the wrong that I've done

Help me leave behind some

Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me

And when you're feeling empty

Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest

Leave out the rest

Don't be afraid

I've taken my beating

I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface

Not all the way through

I've never been perfect

But neither have you

So if you're asking me I want you to know

When my time comes

Forget the wrong that I've done

Help me leave behind some

Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me

And when you're feeling empty

Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest

Leave out the rest

Forgetting/ all the hurt inside you learned to hide so well

Pretending/ someone else can come and save me from myself

I can't be who you are

Once the band finished the crowd stood there for a few seconds in silence before they all started cheering and screaming for more. Hinata smiled feeling very happy for the band, as Naruto looked back at his band and grinned. "Heh" Shinichi smiled as he turned over to Kiba. "We should give them another one, eh?" Kiba smirked and nodded his head looking back over at Kakashi and then Naruto.

"What do you say leader?" Naruto grinned and nodded his head.

"I say: HELL YEAH!" Naruto yelled loudly as he looked back down into the crowd mainly looking at Hinata and smiled. "Does this crowd wanna another song from us?" The crowd roared cheerfully making Naruto jump up for joy. Not once since they started this band have they ever been asked for an encore nor have audience been this happy to listen to them before. It was making not only him very happy but Kakashi, Shinichi and Kiba happy as well.

Shinichi grinned as he started playing his guitar while Kiba grabbed his microphone and walked out unto the front of the stage as he started to smile as he began singing the song, which shocked Hinata since as long as she been with the band Naruto's always singing…never Kiba.

Kiba:

Here we go for the hundredth time

Hand grenade pins in every line

Throw'em up and let something shine

Going out of my f***ing mind

Fifthly mouth/ no excuse

Find a new place to hang this noose

String me up from atop these roofs

Knot it tight so I won't get loose

Truth is/ you can stop and stare

Bled myself out and no one cares

Dug the trench out/ laid down there

With a shovel up out of reach somewhere

Yeah/ someone poor it in

Say your prayers and stomp it out

When they bring that chorus in

Naruto:

I bleed it out

Digging deeper just to throw it away

Just to throw it away

I bleed it out

Kiba:

I bleed it out/ go/ stop the show

Choppy words and sloppy flow

Shotgun opera/ lock and load

Cock it back and then watch it go

Mama help me/ I've been cursed

Death is rolling in every verse

Candy paint on his brand new hearse

Can't contain him/ he knows he works

F*** this hurts/ I won't lie/ doesn't matter how hard I try

Half the words don't mean a thing and I know I won't be satisfied

So why try ignoring him

Make it a dirt dance floor again

Say your prayers and stomp it out

When they bring that chorus in

Naruto:

I bleed it out

Digging deeper just to throw it away

Just to throw it away

I bleed it out

I open up these scars

I'll make you face this

I pull myself apart

I'll make you face this

I open up these scars

I'll make you face this now

I bleed it out

Digging deeper just to throw it away

Just to throw it away

I bleed it out

Hinata clapped her hands together as did everyone else in the crowd as they cheered as well. Hinata looked around to see everyone's happy face after listening to that upbeat song.

"Thank you everyone and goodnight" Naruto grinned as he and his band walked to the backstage.

"Wow! They're band is so…so talented!" Ino exclaimed as she smiled happily at Hinata. Hinata nodded her head as she soon glanced over to see Sasuke and Sakura making they're way towards them.

"Yo, how'd you like they're band performance?" Sasuke asked as he looked at both Ino and Hinata.

"I LOVE IT!" Ino yelled out loudly causing Sasuke and Sakura to twitch at her loudness.

"I didn't know Kiba also sings…I thought it was just Naruto with the singing talent" Hinata said as she looked at Sasuke and Sakura.

"Ouch that hurts sunshine" Kiba said in a fake hurtful tone as he came around her around his arm around her shoulder. Hinata jumped up not expecting him to near her. Sasuke slightly glared at Kiba noticing his arm around Hinata's shoulder.

"I mean I-I didn't mean it like that…I just didn't-well I've never heard you sing before so I just assumed that you couldn't…gomen Kiba-kun" Hinata tried to bow but couldn't since his arm around her shoulder was holding her up.

"Ah it's okay sunshine. I sometimes sing with Naruto on some of his songs and it's always fun since I get to sing as well" The brown haired male grinned. Hinata smiled happily and was just getting ready to speak when she heard a familiar voice.

"Hey um…I didn't think you'll still be here" Everyone turned around to see Deidara standing looking at Ino completely ignoring everyone else. Ino smiled happily as she ran up towards him and hugged him.

"Dei-kun!" She squealed happily. Deidara smiled softly but his smile went away as quickly as it came when he noticed Hinata staring at him. The two locked eyes contact for awhile until a rather tall male blocked his view of Hinata and started glaring at him.

"So who are you?" The tall green haired male asked Deidara.

"I'm Deidara…Ino's fiancée, un" He stated.

"Oh okay I see…well I'm Shinichi, it's nice to meet you Deidara" He then turned around to look over at Hinata. "Say sunshine do you want Kiba and I to walk you home?" Hinata smiled as she nodded her head.

"Sure I don't mind it at all Shin-chan" Deidara watched her smiled not noticing himself smiling as looking at her. He missed that beautiful smile of hers, he didn't realize he was staring at Hinata until he felt Ino nudge him.

"Why don't you just take a picture of her already" She whispered angrily. He snapped out of his thoughts as he sent Ino an apologetic smile mouthing the words 'I'm sorry' to her.

"Don't walk her home in this neighborhood" Sasuke stated as he looked at the two males. "Who knows what could happen to her! And if something does happen to her I'm coming after you two" He snapped causing everyone to look at him in shock.

"Heh- ano don't worry about it Sasuke-teme" Naruto said walking towards the group along with Kakashi. "I'll drive Hinata home in my car and all of us will make sure sunshine gets into her apartment unharmed" Naruto stated with a grin.

"Of course! We are all males capable of protecting little sunshine here" Kakashi winked at Hinata causing her to blush.

"What's with all of these guys? Do they like her or something?" Deidara thought to himself as he glared at each male in the room.

"Hn. Whatever come on Sakura. I'm sure Deidara has transportation to take Ino and himself home" Sasuke growled as he walked away. Sakura looked over at Ino and Deidara.

"He's right I can take myself and Ino home" Deidara stated. Ino looked at Sakura noticing her expression as she looked over her before looking back over at everyone else. "Well it was nice meeting you all. Dei-kun I need to talk with Sakura-chan in private" Ino quickly grabbed Sakura's hand and ran off with her.

Once those two left Deidara felt awkward being left alone with the guys he didn't know anything about and Hinata. "Um…well it was nice meeting you guys as well, despite me only knowing one of you guys names, heh" He chuckled as he then looked over at Hinata. "I'll talk with you later Hinata" He smiled at her only to notice her smiling back but…weakly. He could tell that she must have still been hurt but he knew there was nothing he could do to help sooth her pain when he's the one that's causing her the pain.

"Alright spill it! Why do you look so sad?" Ino asked as she looked at her best friend.

"Sad? I look sad?" She asked while Ino nodded her head.

"Does it have anything to do with Sasuke and maybe Hinata…?" Ino asked in an unsure tone.

Sakura remained silent for the longest before opening her mouth to speak. "I-It's just that…he's so protective whenever it comes to her. And if I were to maybe something bad about her he'll yell at me and won't talk to me for hours and then he'll leave the house most likely to go to her house" Sakura sighed sadly.

"Something bad? What do you say bad about her?"

"Well it's nothing that bad, I'll just say something like she's too timid and quiet and how I think she'll probably attract more guys if she wore a bit more make-up…and things like that" Sakura mumbled lowly. "And he'll get mad and tell me to never talk bad about Hinata in his presence again" Ino sighed as she shook her head.

"Well in my opinion I honestly think Sasuke probably thinks of Hinata like his little sister and he's just protective of her like any brother would be of their little sister. But hey that's my opinion" Ino stated as she smiled at Sakura before hugging her and turning around to leave waving goodbye to her.

"I hope you're right Ino-chan"

"Well come on everyone let's get our little princess home safely" Naruto smiled as he pushed Kiba out of the way so he could place his arm around Hinata. Kiba growled lowly as he pouted at the now smirking blonde. They all nodded as they followed him out the door and towards his car. Shinichi rushed to open the car door for Hinata as he grinned at her. "Ladies first" Hinata smiled at the teen as she climbed into the backseat as Shinichi and Kiba fought over who was sitting next to Hinata. Kakashi watched the two as he sighed.

"You know you could always just go on the other side, that way the both of you would be sitting next to sunshine" Kakashi stated as he stepped into the passenger's seat. Kiba then grinned and nodded his head as he rushed to the other side of the car and opened the door and finally stepped inside looking over at Hinata and grinned. Hinata smiled back as she looked over at Shinichi who was also grinning at her.

"All right everyone inside?"

"Uh yeah dobe" Kiba said 'duh' tone causing Naruto to frown.

"I was just making sure" He said as he began to start driving. It was very silent in the car until Naruto started talking. "GAH! Kakashi! You're reading those perverted books again?" Hinata looked over at Kakashi noticing a book in his hand.

"Ano…Kakashi-kun is that Come Come series lastest volume?" Hinata asked earning a gasping noise from all the males in the car.

"You actually read that smut Sunshine?" Naruto asked as he glanced at her in the rear view mirror. Hinata blushed as she shook her head.

"Ah! No…I had a friend once who read that book from where I use to live" She stated.

"Heh, I see. But you should really read one volume sunshine, it's a really good book" Kakashi stated causing Shinichi to reach his hand up and hit Kakashi on the back of his head.

"Don't tell our little innocent princess to read that crap!" Shinichi quickly turned to look at the older female next to him. "Don't listen to him sunshine!" He begged her. She giggled noticing how Kakashi had stopped reading his book to turn around and glare at the fifteen year old boy.

"Don't worry Shin-chan I won't read it" She smiled at him.

"All right we're here Sunshine…now listen up guys we're all going to walk out princess up to her apartment door. You never know what could happen to her on the way up there" Naruto stated as he stopped the car. All the males nodded while Kakashi sighed.

"My head is really hurting right now. Uh…I think it's best if I stay in the car" Kakashi muttered trying to sound hurt as he raised his hand and placed it on his head.

Naruto glared at him. "You liar, your head isn't-"

"It's okay Naruto-kun, Kakashi-kun probably just doesn't feel like getting out of the car" Hinata stated as she looked at Kakashi. "Right Kakashi-kun" She noticed how Kakashi flinched a bit causing her to giggle.

"Well whatever let's just leave lazy bum in the car, come on you three" Naruto said as he got out of the car as did Shinichi and Kiba. Hinata looked over at Kakashi and smiled as she leaned forward and quickly gave him a peck on his cheek.

"Goodnight Kakashi-kun"

Kakashi smiled as he nodded his head. "Goodnight Sunshine"

Hinata then stepped out of the car and followed Naruto, Shinichi and Kiba into the apartment building.

"Heh, I feel like we're bodyguards for sunshine" Shinichi stated as he looked over at his friend and then Hinata who was walking ahead with Kiba.

"That's because we are…well what I mean is we'll always protect her. She's ours and belongs to us" Naruto said looked up at the much taller male. Each one of the band mates considered Hinata as theirs and they are almost just as protective of her as Sasuke if not more. But either of them liked Hinata in the way Kabuto likes her, they all think of her as they're princess and someone who they want to protect.

Shinichi nodded his head as he looked up noticing how both Hinata and Kiba had now stopped in front of her apartment door. "Well thank you for walking me to my door everyone"

"Aw it's nothing sunshine" Naruto smiled at her. She smiled back as she leaned forwards and hugged each one of them giving them all a small peck on their cheeks.

"Goodnight my princes" She giggles before walking into her apartment and closing the door. They all smiled to their selves before walking away from her door.

"That's our little sunshine" Naruto said to himself but loud enough for Kiba and Shinichi to hear him.

The three songs that were featured in this chapter was Evanescence 'Whisper', Linkin Park 'Leave out all the rest' and Linkin Park 'Bleed it out'. Just to clear up things again Naruto, Kiba, Shinichi nor Kakashi does not like Hinata and never will. They only see her as they're little sister or as in Shinichi's case his older sister. And Hinata only likes Sasuke and Deidara. This fic is purely SasuHinaDei and nothing else oh…erm well there will be a bit Hinata and Kabuto but that won't last for very long trust me.

So please leave reviews and the next chapter will be updated.
