"I can't believe you asked Hinata out for father's formal party" Temari chuckled side glancing over at her brother who was sitting on the passenger side of the car. "I thought you "hated" her, hm?" She pressed on while poking his shoulder. The red hair growled in frustration, his sister could be very irksome to him at times.

"I have my reasons for asking her"

"And those reasons are?"

"They're none of your business, that's what they are" He sneered while glaring at her.

The blonde female pouted turning her head away from keeping her eyes on the road. In her mind she was thinking maybe Gaara could secretly like Hinata. She didn't dare question him about it because she didn't want to angry him, knowing how quickly Gaara could become mad. "Well whatever your reasons are Kabuto wouldn't like this one bit. You know how he feels about that girl" Temari explained side glancing over at her younger brother.

"I know that already, look there is a reason why I chose her to come to the formal and that reason is between us" He informed her while looking out the window up at the window he had known was Hinata's apartment. Temari stared at Gaara for a few moments before sighing softly to herself.

"Whatever..." She mumbled to herself as she drove off.

Hinata came back up into the apartment to see Shinichi and Naruto laid out on her couch watching TV, Kakashi still reading his book while Kiba who seemed to be trying to hold a steady conversation with Juugo who didn't seem to be paying much attention to Kiba once the female Hyuga walked in. "Are you okay? What did he want?" Juugo asked standing up walking over to the female. Hinata giggled placing her hand on the tall male's shoulder.

"I'm fine Juugo-kun, there is no need to worry" She smiled up at him.

"But Sunshine, what did he want?" Naruto questioned while looking at her in a anxious way.

"He didn't want anything important" She didn't want to tell them that Gaara had asked her to be his date for his father's formal party. She knew how protective they were of her especially when it came to other guys which she had gotten use to over the time she has been around them. Shinichi was like a younger brother to her while Naruto and Kiba were like two goofy brothers while Kakashi was like an father figure if not an older brother. She smiled while looking at all of them. All the males figured that she was most likely hiding something from her but they didn't want to press her anymore about it.

"S-So what happened while I was gone?" She smiled at them all. Kakashi placed his book down on the coffee table looking over at Hinata. "Eh, nothing much really happened. Kiba and Naruto started they're daily petty little arguments, Shinichi started poking your tall friend there until Juugo made a sudden movement which ended up frightening Shin, causing him to run over to where Naruto and Kiba were and then Kiba went to talk to Juugo and that's when you came in. So as you see nothing really happened" He smirked at her behind his mask. The female Hyuga nodded her head as she walked over towards her couch to sit down.

"So shall I continue with the story?" She asked while smirking at the males in the room. Shinichi and Naruto grinned widely while nodding they're heads. The two males were disappointed when Gaara came which lead to her stopping from finishing the story. Kakashi was mildly wondering what else happened between Deidara and Hinata but didn't appear to seem to care too much about the story.

"Okay well...ano, where did I leave off from?"

"You were going to the park" Shinichi stated with excitement in his voice awaiting the story to finish unfolding causing Hinata to smile at his child like behavior.

[Flashback Pt.2]

The two finally came to a stop, looking around noticing how crowded it was at the park. Kids running around screaming and laughing as their parents watched them from the bench, while couples walked hand in hand around the running path trail. Deidara smiled sadly to himself thinking about his girlfriend. He knew that she normally likes to come here to relax but he knew this wasn't the time to think about her. He had to cheer Hinata up, he knew after witnessing such a thing like she just witnessed only moments ago would upset anyone. He looked down at her smiling sadly, wrapping his arms around her shoulder.

"Come on let's go find somewhere to sit, ne?" He smiled down at the Hyuga female.

"Hai" She responded lowly leaning in closer towards him as he pulled her along side with him, walking towards a bench that wasn't too far away. Once the two sat down Deidara let out a sigh. He wanted so badly to let her know that he knew that she would be moving in few months but figured to were best if she mentioned to him rather than him telling her that he had knew already.

"You know Hina-chan, I'm glad that I have you as a best friend. Your are and someone who I had always been able to count on and thank you for always being here for me" He confessed to her wearing a wide grin. She stared up at him blushing unable to perform any words for a few seconds before speaking.

"Y-Your welcome Dei-kun, but ano...you don't have to thank me. You should know that I'll always be here for you no matter what" She explained to him. He just smiled at her shaking his head from side to side. She watched him for a few moments wanted to ask him something about his girlfriend but she didn't want to bring her up knowing that would dampened his mood.

"So why the park?" He asked suddenly, glancing around at their surrounds, frowning slightly at the loud children running around. "It's so noisy here, too many kids running around, couples kissing..." He groaned. "Couldn't we have gone to a much better place than the park?" He asked turning his head over looking at her.

"B-But I have always enjoyed coming to the park Dei-kun" She pouted fully well knowing that he was trying to ask her could they leave and go somewhere else. She noticing him getting ready to say something else but she quickly parted her lips to speak. "Can't we just stay here a bit longer?" She asked sweetly. "Pretty please? For me Dei-kun?" She asked giving him the puppy dog eyes hoping that he would give in to them.

He sighed nodding his head slowly. "Alright fine but we're not going to stay here long okay?" He stated while trying his best to give her a serious expression. She just nodded her head and giggled, running off to the swings like a young child. He smiled to himself as he watched her run off. "She's acting like a child" He thought to himself but soon a smirk came to his face. "But it's kind of funny" He grinned, closing his eyes for a bit as he leaned his head back opening his eyes again looking up into the sky. The weather was just right today, it was not too hot but not to cold either...just how he liked it. His ears perked up when he heard a familiar voice. "That sounds like Sachiko..." He looked around the park trying to figure out where he heard the voice from but when he couldn't find her he thought he may have been hearing things.

"Ano Dei-kun is here with me too" Hearing this he knew Hinata had to have been talking to Sachiko. He looked ahead seeing his best friend talking to his girlfriend. He was one hundred percent sure Sachiko did not like Hinata, hell almost all of his previous girlfriends didn't like Hinata. He figured because she was his best friend and not only that but mainly because she's a female and they are very close with each other. He stood up from the bench he was currently sitting on walking slowly over to where Hinata was. He looked at his girlfriend noticing the pout she was giving him causing him to sigh.

"What are you-you doing here with," She paused to look over at Hinata as she pointed her finger at the shy female, "with HER!" She yelled out loudly causing people to stare in their direction. Deidara blushed from embarrassment.

"Sachi-chan, do you have to be so loud. Other people are here you know" He whispered lowly trying his hardest not to look around at the young kids and adults who were now staring at them. The white haired female looked around laughing nervously waving off everyone with a nervous smile appearing on her face.

"G-Gomen" She apologize to the people who had now stopped looking their way. Sachiko then looked back over at Deidara, her eyebrows starting to form in a from. "Now answer me! What are you doing here with her? You were suppose to spend the day with me" She exclaimed looking at him with hurt and anger consuming her eyes.

The blonde haired male glanced over at Hinata and noticed how uncomfortable she looked witnessing what was before her. "I just wanted to spend the day with Hina-chan that's all. Besides..." He glanced casually back over at the white haired female. "Don't you have a guy to be seeing right now" He noticed the shocked expression in which consumed her face causing him to glare at her.

"W-What are you talking about Deidara?"

"Tch, I saw you. I saw you and that guy...kissing" He growled at her causing Sachiko to stiffen. She had never seen Deidara angry before and didn't quite know what to expect. "Why would you even go and do something like that?"

She glanced over at Hinata before gazing down at the ground. "I had my reasons" She replied softly. Deidara just glared even more since he knew what those reasons where.

"Just get out of my sight; I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore"

Sachiko quickly snapped her head up looking at him with pleaded eyes. "Don't give me that look, you had your chance but you messed that up and you expect me to sit here and let it go" He snorted. "Hn, that won't happen, yeah" He looked away from her hiding his pained expression. "We're over Sachiko" He muttered lowly but loud enough so she could hear him.

"I see..." She slowly walked over towards him stopping in front of him, placing her hand on his cheek leaning forward giving him a soft kiss to his lips. Seeing this happen right in front of her, Hinata was very shocked to say the least but also jealous but tried her best not to show it.

Once the kiss was over Deidara looked down at her trying not to seem as if he were affected by the kiss but did offer a small smile to the foot shorter female. "Take care of yourself Deidara..." She whispered as she turned to walk away. When she left Deidara placed his hand behind his head scratching it while letting out a light chuckle.

"I'm sorry Hina-chan that you had to see that. It seems we both lost someone we love today, ne?" He smiled at her.

Hinata knew that he was hurting she could see it in his eyes, he just didn't want to admit it. She felt sorry for him, each one of his girlfriends had cheated on him with another guy. She felt it was her fault at times, she knew not one of his ex's liked her. They would always glare at her; try their best to make her jealous or even making threats to her when Deidara wasn't around. She smiled sadly at the male in front of her who was trying his hardest not to seem as if he were sad. "At least we have each other, r-right?" He stared at her for a few seconds before nodding his head grinning widely.

"Hai, we do. Let's get out of here and go visit Sasori, yeah?" Sasori just so happened to be best friends with Hinata and Deidara. All three of them grew up together in Konoha City. Sasori was seen as the more mature out of the three always giving advice for both of them, although Sasori and Deidara seem to get into tiny petty arguments a lot she knew that they both cared deeply for one another.

"Yes, I haven't seen him in awhile" She stated. She had missed Sasori, neither one of them had practically seen him for a good two weeks now. Deidara grinned placing his hand on top of her head patting it softly.

"Let's go then" He grinned taking her hand into his pulling her along with him.

While the pair was walking Hinata continued glancing over at Deidara, she has yet to tell him that they were moving soon. She knew she had to say something sooner or later. Not only that, she wanted to be able to finally confess her feelings to the blonde haired male. She loved him so much but apart of her knew that he didn't feel the same way for her. She sadly sighed to herself but quietly not wanting Deidara to hear it, fully well knowing he would ask what was wrong. She looked up only to notice they were standing in front of Sasori's house. Deidara let go of Hinata's hand to knock on the door, but the soft knock started to become a rather loud banging noise.

"A-Ano...Dei-kun!" She exclaimed tugging on his arm trying to stop him from knocking for hard on the door.

"Hey! Idiot, open the door, yeah! It's me and Hina-chan" He shouted loudly, he then took a step away from the door looking up at the window that was at the upstairs part of the house. He looked around to a small rock of some sort, picking it up he threw it at the window. "If your sleeping in there, I would advise you to get up and-" The blonde haired male wasn't even able to finish his sentence when he felt something rather hard hit the top of his head causing him to fall to the ground from being knocked out.

"Dei-kun!" Hinata shouted in concern. She looked up to see Sasori's head peering down out from his window.

"Damn annoying baka" He grunted while glaring down at the knocked out blonde. He looked over to see Hinata who was not staring up at him. "Oi Hinata-chan, it's good to see you. Wait one minute, I'll be down in a few seconds" He smiled softly at her. She only nodded her head, glancing back down at Deidara, shaking her head.

"He always manages to make Sasori-kun angry one way or another"

Her head turned when she heard the front door being opened as out came Sasori. "What brings you two here? If Deidara wants to borrow money again, I do not have it" He glared down at the male, knowing he mainly only likes to come over to borrow money. The female Hyuga giggled while shaking her head.

"N-No, we came here to visit you"

"Mhm, sure that's what he tells you but he wants money. I just know it" He pouted, grabbing the male by his collar lifting him up quickly as he hit him on his head.

"Sasori-kun! You'll hurt him even more" Hinata tried to tell the red head. He ignored her protest as he continued beating the poor blonde on the head. Deidara slowly opened his eyes looking around before glaring hard at Sasori.

"What did you throw at me baka? That hurt!" He yelled rubbing the bruise on his forehead. Sasori looked around picking up the item showing it to Deidara with an expressionless expression on his face.

"YOU THREW A BASEBALL AT ME?" He pouted looking around from him towards Hinata. "He's so mean to me Hina-chan" He whined hugging the now blushing female as he rubbed his face against her stomach. Sasori glanced over at Hinata fully well knowing that she would be blushing and sure enough she was. He has been surprised that his female best friend has yet to tell Deidara her feelings that she has for him.

"Just shut up Deidara and stop your whining" He sighed loudly. "God, what am I going to do with you" He shook his head referring to Deidara, causing Hinata to giggle. "Oh umm there is something that I need to tell you two" He stated with a serious expression.

"W-What is it?" Hinata asked being quite curious as to what it was he wanted to tell them once his expression changed.

"Well, my Obaa-san decided to move back to Sand Country and I've decided to go with her" He mumbled. Deidara looked at him with wide eyes, he couldn't believe this was happening. First he finds out Hinata is leaving and now his other best friend is leaving him too. He looked down at the ground, it was clearly shown that he wasn't to happy to hear the news. Sasori laughed nervously placing his hand on his friend's shoulder.

"Don't be so down, at least you have Hinata-chan, ne?" He smiled looking over the Hyuga Heiress who merely looked down as well.

"This can't be happening" He mumbled causing both his best friends to look over at him. "It just can't be. Everything is turning out wrong. Hina-chan is leaving and now you! I'll be stuck here all alone" Hinata gasped as did Sasori.

"H-How did you know I-I was leaving Dei-kun?"

The blonde male pouted. "Neji told me earlier today..."

"So you're leaving too, huh?" Sasori sighed softly. He knew that sooner or later they all would have to eventually go they're separate ways but he didn't think it would be this soon. He knew he would truly miss these two; they had always been there for him. He has come to think of them as his siblings. Deidara as an annoying brother as Hinata as a younger sister, who just happens to always come to him for advice. He watched as Hinata slowly nodded her head, indicating that she was moving soon as well. Sasori sighed softly as he swiftly stood up onto his feet.

"Well I would love to hang out with you two today but I have a lot that I have to be doing. Maybe we can all get together some other time, ne?" He glanced down at the two who were still sitting down on the ground. They both nodded at the red head.

"Yeah...well I guess we better get going Hina-chan" Deidara stated as he stood up helping her up in the process. The three all looked at each other fully well knowing that this was most likely the last time that they would see Sasori, they remained silent for awhile until Hinata suddenly ran towards the red head and hugged him tightly.

"I'll miss you Sasori-kun" She whispered sadly as Sasori smiled softly to himself, placing his arm around her waist embracing her back.

"I'll miss you too" He exclaimed softly, glancing over at Deidara who was watching the two intently for a few seconds before looking at Sasori smiling in thought. Sasori moved Hinata back slightly gazing into her eyes for a bit leaning forward giving her forehead a soft kiss, causing the female to blush. "Don't change for anyone, and always remember if anyone bothers you Deidara will be there to beat them up for you" Sasori paused taking a look over at his male best friend. "Isn't that right, Dei?" He smirked at the male.

Deidara smiled nodding his head. "She knows that already" He grinned. Sasori patted the top of Hinata's head. "Also make sure he stays out of trouble, okay" He whispered trying to make sure the blonde wouldn't hear him but he did causing his eyebrow to twitch.

"Baka..." He muttered to himself. But he knew that he would miss him dearly.

Xxxxxxxx

Once Deidara and Hinata left Sasori's place, Deidara kept looking over at the blue haired female in sadness. He couldn't believe that she would be moving, if anyone he would miss her the most. She has been someone who has always been there for him. Once he gets into arguments with his stepfather or even fights the first person that he calls to talk to is Hinata. She always consoled him and made him feel better, always bringing a smile to his face whatever the issue was, she was always there for him. He mentally sighed to himself as he continued walking behind the female Hyuga.

Hinata stopped and turned around to see Deidara staring at the ground as if he were in deep thought. "Dei-kun? A-Are you okay?" She asked walking up to him looking at him in concern. The blonde looked up meeting white eyes, he smiled sadly at her.

"Why didn't you tell me you were moving?" He questioned her.

"A-Ano...well I just was waiting for the right moment" She exclaimed. Deidara shook his head as a frown began to slowly appear on his face. "And when would have that been? The exact day when move?" He groaned. "Hinata, I honestly don't want you to move. You have been my best friend since day one and so has Sasori and now he is leaving too. I'll be here without my two best friends" He looked away from her for a moment before glancing back over at her as he lifted his hand and placed it under her chin, pulling her face up more to get a better look at her face. "You're the one person I really don't want to leave my side. I need you here with me Hinata..." He admitted to her.

Hinata blushed deeply as she looked into his blue eyes. She almost mistook what he was saying as if he were saying he in fact likes her as she likes him but knew Deidara didn't mean it in that way. "I-I know Dei-kun, but we could always write each other and you could come visit me or-"

"No" He interrupted her causing her to look at him in shock.

"No?" She questioned.

"Hai, I don't want to write, or visit or anything else. What I want is for you to stay here, yeah!" He snapped harshly. Hinata jumped at his tone which he noticed. "...Gomen, I didn't mean to yell at you like that Hina-chan...I just don't want to lose my best friend. And I'm afraid that would happen when you move" Hinata looked at him for a bit smiling.

"You won't lose me Dei-kun. We're best friend until the end, ne?" Deidara eyes widened for a few short seconds at her statement, something in which they use to say to each other when they were younger which lead to him to break out into a smile.

"Hai...friends to the end" He grinned pulling her into a tight embrace. "Come on let's get you back home, okay?" He felt her nod her head as he pulled her along with him.

Once the paired finally made to the Hyuga home they were both greeted by Hinata's younger sister, Hyuga Hanabi. The young girl glared holes into Deidara and Hinata. Deidara couldn't stand Hinata's younger sister, she was such a rude girl, she always had something to say that was negative towards Hinata if not Neji. One glare coming from him or Sasori to the girl she shuts up and says nothing more.

"Heh, if it isn't onne-chan and the stupid blonde" She snorted causing Hinata and Deidara to frown at the young girl.

"Why don't you learn to shut your trap" Deidara sneered at Hanabi. The younger version of Hinata pouted before as she glanced away from Deidara to look at her sister.

"Otou-san said we're moving in two weeks" She stated taking in notice of their shocked expressions. Hanabi smirked closing her eyes. "Didn't expect that did you onne-chan? Well Otou-san just informed Neji and I earlier today. He was a bit shocked about it himself" She sighed loudly before walking past the two, smirking to herself fully well knowing that Deidara was going to be upset by the news she just told them.

Once she was gone Deidara turned over to Hinata smiling hopefully. "Maybe she's lying. You know Hanabi, yeah" Hinata shook her head.

"No...Hanabi-chan does lie a lot but that wasn't a lie. I know when she's lying" Deidara frowned walking into the house quickly ignoring Hinata calling out for him. He needed to know was it true. Were they really moving in two weeks? If it were true, he was going to try anything possible to get Hinata to stay behind with him. He barged into Hiashi's office still ignoring Hinata's pleads for him to stop or else he would be in deep trouble. Once he was inside the office he noticed the older male Hyuga was staring at Deidara with widened eyes before it ceased to become an scowl.

"What is the meaning of this?" He said in slight annoyance.

"Is it trueo you're moving in two weeks?" Hiashi sighed, he knew this young male cared deeply for his daughter, since the two have been friends ever since they were young.

"Hai, I have a business over there" He merely stated while glancing back down at his papers.

"Well can't Hina-chan just stay here with me?" Hinata gasped while Hiashi began coughing.

"Excuse me?" He questioned the blonde. "Do you honestly think I'm going to let me daughter stay behind and live with you?" He shook his head waving both Deidara and Hinata off. "Please leave my office...the both of you right now" Deidara glared at him turning around leaving the office in a foul mood. Hinata bowed to her father quickly leaving his office to go after the blonde hair male.

"Dei-kun! Dei-kun!" She called out for him only not to receive an answer. She sighed fully well knowing that he was still somewhere inside the house. "He's in the basement" Neji's voice said suddenly causing her to jump up in surprise.

"In the basement?" She questioned.

"That's what I just said didn't I?" He smirked as he walked passed placing his hand on her shoulder. "You know he is really will miss you" Hinata nodded her head, she knew he would miss her, she would miss him as well. He was her best friend and not only that...she's in love with him.

"You should really tell him before it's too late..." He stated as he walked passed her. She knew what Neji meant, time was going by fast and she needed to finally tell him before it was too late. She made an determined facial expression as she began making her way towards the basement. Walking down those stairs she could feel her heart beating faster and faster with each step she took down. The feeling she was feeling at the moment wasn't a good one, it made her feel uneasy as if something bad were bound to happen.

Once she made it to the bottom of the stairs she turned her head over to see Deidara sitting down on the couch with a scowl implanted on his face. "Deidara..."

"This isn't fair...not once ounce of it is! Your old enough to make your own decision and I say you stay here" He grunted sitting up glancing over at Hinata noticing her sadden expression. He sighed sadly patting the sit next to him.

"Come sit down with me Hina" He said softly. She nodded her head walking over towards him taking a sit down next to him. He glanced over at he placing his hand on her hand. "Is there something on you mind?"

He noticed how she was shifting in her seat and the blush that was now rising on her cheeks. "H-Hinata?"

"Ano...there is something that I have been meaning to tell you" She gulped; she didn't know if she could do this, but she knew that she had to. It was either now or never, she couldn't back down now. "Well over the past few years...that we have been friends, I have always been ano...well you have been someone who has always been there for me. Always by my side and someone who has always cheered me up and brought a smile to my face. And what I'm trying to say is...that-that" She paused looking over at him with a serious expression. "I love you Deidara" She confessed,

Deidara stared at her in pure shock. He couldn't believe his ears, she loved him? He couldn't even get himself to say anything; he was just so consumed with shock that he couldn't even utter one word. She looked down noticing how he hasn't spoken one word since she confessed. Deidara looked down at his hands for a bit as he parted his lips to speak.

"I'm sorry...but I can't return your feelings" He felt bad that he had to tell her this but it was the truth, he just didn't feel the same way that she felt for him. He always just thought of her as a friend and nothing more. He slowly stood up from the couch. "Besides...there is someone else that I like" He openly admitted.

Hinata looked at him in shock. He just had broken up with his girlfriend today so how was it there someone who he liked? She assumed that he was lying which lead her to frown. "Y-You don't have to lie about it" She pouted at the male. Deidara merely shook his head indicating her wasn't lying.

"Iie, She's someone who I have been friends for awhile I just never mentioned her to you before" He said softly. "She's the one...well she is someone who I plan on being with. So with that said I'm sorry but I can't return your feelings" He glanced over at her, his eyes widened at the sight. Tears were streaming down her face, pure hurt was consuming her entire face.

"Hina...I'm really sor-"

"It's fine, you don't have to say sorry"

"But your crying Hina-chan" He pointed out, reached to wipe away her tears but she slapped his hand away from her. She stood up quickly, her head hung low as her bangs cast a shadow over her eyes.

"Your free to leave if you want to" She stated with her head still down. Deidara looked at her for a moment, his expression darkened for a split moment while standing up. He was getting ready to walk past her but he stopped besides her.

"Gomen...Hinata. I didn't mean to hurt you...gomen..." He muttered as he walked passed her. She stood there not knowing what to say. She was so hurt at the moment. She just told her best friend that she was in love with him only for him to tell her he wanted someone else. She had a feeling that he wouldn't return her feelings but the part with him telling her he likes someone else and the fact and it's a friend he never told her about made her felt a tinge bit jealous.

"Dei-kun..."

Xxxxxxxx

Days passed by then a weeks until there was only one day left until it was time for her to move and she has yet to see Deidara since she had confessed to him. She had been wondering to herself maybe confessing to him wasn't such a good idea. She sighed sadly to herself as she found herself at the front of the blonde's door. She softly knocked on the door waiting for someone to answer the door. Finally the door opened revealing a shocked Deidara.

"Hina what are you doing here?" He questioned looking behind to to see his step father glaring at him. He grunted to himself closing the door behind him He wasn't really ready to see Hinata after what she confessed to him and had a feeling that things wouldn't be the same between them after that confession. He hadn't realized that time had went by so quickly that tomorrow was the day she and her family were moving.

"I-I wanted to see you..." She shifted nervously while looking down at the ground. "I haven't seen you in awhile"

"Mhm, I know. Look, it's best if...if we aren't friend anymore Hinata"

Hinata still frozen once he spoke those words. "B-But why?" She asked looking up into his blue eyes trying to see if she could find the meaning to all of this.

"It would e awkward...especially if I were to have a girlfriend. You'll try to act as if your happy for me but I know you well enough to know that you'll be hurt every time you see us together and I don't want that" He looked away from her with a scowl on his face. "It's best if things stay like this" He exclaimed.

Hinata said not a word but turned away and ran away from him. She couldn't believe all because she just confessed to him that he didn't want to be her friend anymore. She was the only best friend she had...how could he do this to her. It pained her so much she couldn't stop the tears that flowed down her cheeks.

"How could he end our friendship like this? How?" She cried to herself as she continued running.

Once she finished her story she looked at everyone in the room and noticed how they all were staring at her with shocked expressions with the exception of Juugo who had already knew this had happened. "Wow, that guy is an real ass to do something like that to our little sunshine" Naruto snarled getting upset at the fact that Deidara had broken off his friendship with Hinata without a care in the world and the way Hinata explained it was as if Deidara hadn't cared what he had done.

"I would have to agree with Naruto. You two were friends for quite awhile, ne? And to go and break off a long time friendship over something as that...it's very odd" Shinichi said thoughtfully. Hinata said nothing but stare down at her hands. She still loved Deidara but over these past five years she has come to like Sasuke. But knows it's not worth telling him since he has a girlfriend for one and she didn't want the same thing to happen with Sasuke like it did with Deidara.

"Maybe he had his reasons for doing what he did?" Kiba inquired.

"Yeah and his reasons were stupid! The guy is just a plain jackass to me now" Naruto puffed while closing his eyes and folding his arms.

"Well I never liked him from the moment I saw him" Shinichi stated while also pouting. Hinata could do nothing but smile at her friends. She cared about all of them so much, they always brought a smile to her face no matter what it was. Juugo watched her from across the room noticing her bright smile. He could tell she was happy, before after the incident with Deidara she wasn't the same for a long time not until she met Sasuke. He remembers the first time he introduced those two to each other and how Sasuke would always have a scowl on his face whenever the Hyuga heiress was near but after a month passed by something seemed to have happened between the two because Juugo noticed Sasuke finally being nice to her and actually smiling. He smiled at the thought before standing up causing everyone to look at him.

"I'm going to go visit Neji" Hinata's eyes widened at the mere mention of his name. She hasn't seen him in such a long time, she truly missed her cousin. "Do you wish to come, Hinata-sama? Ah! Hinata-chan" He corrected himself still not quite use to calling her "chan" at the end of her name.

"Hai!" She exclaimed happily but paused turning to look over at Kakashi, Shinichi, Kiba and Naruto. "Ano..."

"Your friends are more than welcomed to come" He smiled. Hinata quickly looked over at them with a hopefully look on her face.

Naruto looked at the guys before glancing back over at Hinata. "Sure we'll come. Besides I want to meet this Neji guy that Sasuke always talks about" Shinichi looked over at Naruto.

"What does he say about him?"

"Eh...I don't think the two gets along very well, ne Sunshine?" He smiled at her causing her to laugh lightly while nodding her head. She was happily that he new friends get to meet Neji but even more happy that Juugo was here with her. He was appointed to her by her father as her bodyguard and in the beginning Juugo took things way too seriously but had always been nothing but kind to her and still is. She felt so lucky to have everyone in her life like this. She smiled to herself as she thought of her mother.

"Okaa-san...I have such great friends...I wish you could be here to meet them" She thought to herself as she stood up looking over at the door when she heard someone knocking.

"Geez, what a busy place, someone's always here" Naruto groaned. Hinata giggled as she got ready to open the door but noticed Juugo had beaten her to it. Once he opened the door she was surprised to see Sasuke standing there.

"Sasuke?" Juugo said in shock.

The raven haired male just smirked at him. "Yo" He greeted, looking behind the tall male he noticed how Naruto and his whole band was practically sitting in Hinata's living room. His eyebrow twitched slightly at how many guys were in her home, but he said nothing about it of course.

"I was just coming to visit...but I see you have company" He said looking at at everyone.

"No, no, we were just on our way out. We're going to visit Neji-niisan" Sasuke's eyes widen as he sighed. "Oh that guy, eh? I'll come along...since I nothing better to do" He had gotten in another argument with Sakura right after they made up and what was the argument about. None other than Hyuga Hinata. Sasuke was getting tired of Sakura getting jealous of Hinata when there was clearly nothing going on between them.

"You seem a little out of it" Naruto stated while looking curiously at his best friend. Not only did Naruto notice it but the other including Hinata as well.

"Hn, I suppose. I'm just a but tired of things...so whose car are we taking?" He asked trying to change the subject.

"We'll just take the limo..." Juugo inquired. Shinichi's and Naruto's eye's widened as sparkles lit up in there eyes.

"L-Limo?" Juugo just nodded his head turning over towards Hinata.

"Are you ready?"

"Hai" She smiled, excited with the thought of see Neji. She turned her head to look at Sasuke noticing how he was arguing with Naruto. She smiled to herself not noticing that she was blushing and unaware that Kakashi was watching her with narrowed eyes.
