Hai dere gaiz! Lol.
I'm really happy that a lot of people enjoyed the first chapter! I enjoyed reading the reviews and getting emails about story alerts and what not! Sorry it's taking me so long to update. School is such booboo right now! I'm so glad I'm a senior... Soon I'll be able to flip desks over and say "F-this shit!" Until then... I shall hold my tongue and update when I can :)
Sasuhina... I will go down with this ship!
Disclaimer: I still don't own Naruto.. Never will... I'm gonna go cry now..
Onto Chapter Dos! HUZZAAAAHHH!
I've got to have her... This should be easy.
Sasuke leaned back, still in thought as Neji lead his doe-eyed angel of a cousin to the seat nearest to his own. Before Hinata had a chance to pull out her chair to sit down, she was bombarded by the male population of the class, each boy sporting a slight blush across their chiseled faces. Sasuke noticed her cousin clench his jaw in anger, trying to contain his temper without breaking any necks. Someone should really let her know what she's about to get into, Sasuke thought, frowning at the thought of himself going soft. Why would HE care about HER well being? He just think she has a nice body. Not as frail and thin as the rest, just right... right? Right. Sasuke grimaced as he watched dog-boy, Inuzuka Kiba, grab for the Hyuuga heiress' pale, genteel hand, contaminating it with his calloused, tan fingers. He brought the polished hand towards his lips, only to be pulled away from her and tossed aside by Naruto. After shooting Kiba a dirty look, the blonde haired, blue-eyed boy turned towards Hinata and smiled, the lightest shade of red dusting his whiskered face.
"Don't mind that creep Kiba! He's just trying to get in your pants!" Naruto raised both arms behind his head, a nervous tick he had when in awkward situations. He chuckled nervously as Hinata clasped her tiny hands upon her round, rose-red cheeks, mouth open in embarrassment. "Er, I didn't meant to freak you out like that! Just be careful!" Naruto winked at Hinata as she cutely furrowed her brow and nodded seriously, taking a mental note to stay away from lecherous classmates. Sasuke perked up in his seat as he heard her angelic voice sing a song of thanks towards his idiot friend and roommate.
"A-ano.. thank you, I-i'll definitely be more c-careful... umm.. uhhh..." She grinned sheepishly, an even deeper blush adorning her face as she searched for her savior's name. Naruto laughed nervously, realizing his mistake of not giving a proper introduction.
"Daahh! I'm really a dobe, ne? I'm Uzumaki Naruto! Just call me Naruto, okay Hina-chan?" He smiled widely as she nodded, looking down at her shoes to hide the smile that reached all the way to her eyes, causing her wide white eyes to crease upward. "Lemme introduce you to some normal people Hina-chan! Well, there's me.. Uh, and Neji! Oh wait, aheh-heh, nevermind that was dumb... Hmm, there's Nara Shikamaru and his girlfriend, Ino!" Naruto pointed towards the spiky haired boy who was looking away from Hinata, at the request of his jealous blonde girlfriend. Hinata waved to Ino, receiving a cautious glare, followed by an approving grin. Sasuke smirked, seeing that Ino would probably be the only girl okay with the new Hyuuga's existence. "Oh! And how could I forget Sasuke-Bastard! His real name's Sasuke, but he likes being called Teme, so be sure to do it as much as possible! He's my best friend! Say something to Hina-chan, teme!" Sasuke felt his heart drop down to his stomach as a pair of soft, pale lavender hued eyes looked shyly into his cold obsidian ones. The chatter going on throughtout the classroom ceased, everyone waiting to see how the school heartthrob would act towards the beautiful stranger. This silence lasted for a good three minutes.
Well, this is good and awkward.
Sasuke felt Hinata shift because of his gaze, but he was used to people feeling uncomfortable or intimidated around him. Most girls just fall for me with one look... this should be easy. Bored with the silence, Sasuke turned his attention away from the heiress, towards the empty sidewalks outside of the school building. Ignoring Sakura and Karin just made them fall even harder for him; he was a good-looking guy, so why wouldn't it work on Hinata. Though she doesn't appear to be one on the outside, she was just like any other high school girl. Boy crazy and quick to fall for anyone and anything. My silent, "brooding one" act should get her in no time... It always works when I'm trying to push girls away. This'll be like reverse psychology without her even knowing it. Sasuke sighed and allowed the weight of his head to rest within his right palm, trying to hide the smirk spreading across his face. It was only a matter of time until his look would affect her. Sasuke glanced forward in her direction, seeing if he had made her blush like the dobe and dog boy did. Sasuke's eyes grew wide and his left brow raised slightly in disbelief.
What the...? He thought to himself, questioning the scene he had just caused to happen before his eyes. Hinata had turned away from him. From HIM. Uchiha Sasuke. Not only had she turned away, but she kept her eyes to the ground, for they had become full of discontent and sadness. A sad, pale shade of pink had found it's way onto her porcelain cheeks, causing her facade to express an overall feeling of hurt and slight anger. With her brows furrowed, she turned her back towards a stunned Sasuke, finally taking her seat as Kakashi-sensei made his way to the front of the class to begin the day's Calculus lesson. Sasuke quickly removed the shocked expression from his face as Neji turned around to give him a nasty scowl, and soon found himself turning towards the window angrily as Naruto snickered at his predicament. Though Sasuke was expert at hiding emotions, he knew that Naruto had caught on to SOMETHING. I've been living with the dobe too long. He knows me too well... Ugh, damn.
When the final bell rang dismissing the class, Sasuke curiously watched Sakura and Karin surrounded Hinata, fake smiles causing the girl to remain in her seat.
"Hiiiiiiiii, Hinata-chan! I'm Sakura, and this is Karin! We just sit a couple of seats down! You should hang out with us after school sometime, we'd LOVE to be your friend!" Sakura's jade eyes sparkled mischievously as Hinata smiled warmly, accepting her vague invitation.
"R-really? I think I'd like that," the heiress replied softly. Karin ran a hand through the untamed side of her hair as she eyed Hinata. She had a smile on her face, but it didn't reach her eyes. Karin leaned in to whisper in her "friend's" ear, causing Sasuke to listen slightly harder.
"Just on one condition. To be our friend, you have to stay the fuck away from Uchiha. He belongs to us, well ME—and me ONLY. If I catch you gawking at him like you were earlier, I'll make life at South Konoha VERY hard for you," Karin cooed softly into Hinata's hair, fingering random silken black strands that framed her face. She quickly sat up, a faux smile plastered onto her face as she pushed up her glasses. "And you wouldn't want that would you? Let's be the BEST of friends, Hina-pyon!" On that note, Karin and Sakura left the classroom, but not before taking one last look at Hinata and cackling. Sasuke had to control his outer ticks, fighting to loosen his clenched fist and tight jaw. Those bitches... I swear, their asses will be mine if they touch her... Thoughts of anger of faded as he felt the dobe grabbing his arm, yanking him out of his seat, claiming it was time to go home and get some ramen. Sasuke had to fight his blush as Hinata bid them goodbye, her voice full of question and anxiety from her recent attack for Sakura and Karin.
"Goodbye N-Naruto-kun! Uchiha-san... see you tomorrow morning". Hinata grinned politely, eyes creased upward in happiness, preventing her from seeing Sasuke wince at her honorifics and formalities. Uchiha-san... that's my father or... or HIM. She's on first name basis with the dobe. How in the hell did this happen? Sasuke accidentally growled audibly, causing Naruto to look back at him, a goofy, all-knowing grin plastered upon his face as they exited the school gates and took a left, towards their brownstone apartment. What the hell was his problem, Sasuke thought wearily, knowing that he was going to catch hell for SOMETHING on the way home.
"Sooo. Sasuke-teme."
"Dobe?"
"Bastard."
"This conversation is stimulating and all Naru-tard, but I'd like for you to go ahead and spit out whatever the fuck you have to say," Sasuke said nonchalantly. Naruto was starting to get on his nerves. Sasuke knew that Naruto wasn't the type to create small talk, so all of this beating around the bush was killing him. "What is it?"
"Well... what do you think of Hina-chan?" Sasuke inwardly frowned as the dobe said her "name," seeing a red blush drape itself over the bridge of his tan nose.
"You mean Hyuuga Hinata?'
"Yeah!"
"Well... ehh" I jogged forward lightly, not ready to witness the wide-eyed freak of nature that had temporarily took over his whiskered face. Whatever he did, he could NOT let Naruto know of his slight crush on Hinata; he'd NEVER hear the end of it.
Ta-daah? Sorry this chapter is so short! The next on is where things really good cooking, so yuh! Read & review please!
