Chapter Five: Your Questions

"So, why do you look so bad?"

"I get dizzy whenever I s-smell b-blood..."

His face didn't move, except for a single eyebrow floating upwards. "Blood doesn't have a smell...does it?"

"Yes it does. It smells like rust and salt."

The rest of the walk was continued in silence. How Sasuke did it, she didn't know, but he somehow supported all 102 pounds of her weight in the palm of his hand while the other opened the door knob. She looked down at his toned, chiseled arms, and was glad when the nurse's voice interrupted her embarrassing moment. "Set her own on the bed, Mr. Uchiha."

The paper crinkled as her weight was gently lowered onto it. Hinata lied down and rolled up into the ball. The whole room was spinning in circles around her, and she clamped a hand over her mouth to force down her apple. The nurse checked her forehead, and winced at the moisture clinging onto her hand. She wiped it on her apron with a grunt and sat on a chair, rolling over to her desk. She took out a stack of paper work to busy herself with. "Don't worry about it, toots. We get at least one of you every year. Just wait it out, you'll be better in no time."

Hinata tossed and turned, trying to cool off; if she stayed in any one spot too long, she felt like she was on fire. She froze when two ice-cold hands clamped onto her shoulders, keeping her in place. Sasuke sighed, clearly irritated. "If you keep moving like that, I'll get dizzy." He placed one of his hands on her forehead, and Hinata could feel her natural red flush returning to her. After waiting a few minutes, the room slowed, until it came to a complete stop. The nurse turned around and smiled. "See, you're all better now!"

Sasuke's nose quirked up into the air, slowly turning to the left. His eyes became wide, and he turned to Hinata. He lifted her off the bed and helped her to her feet. Whipering just so she could hear, he said, "You need to get out of here." "I think Miss Hinata is well enough to go home now."

"Go home? But she has another class left."

Hinata moaned when a foot connected with her shin. "I think it'd be a good idea to take her home." His smooth, soothing voice flowed through her ears like honey, and by the look on the nurse's face, Hinata was sure it was having the same effect. She smiled sweetly at him.

"Oh, all right. But what about you, dear?"

"Hinata lives by herself. She needs someone to take her home." The nurse melted into a pile of goo, and she waved them out of her office.

"Well then, don't worry about it. I'll take care of all the paper work. You feel better, dear." The nurse was about to say more, but she saw someone walking down the hall. "Oh dear, looks like we have another one. That's a lot of blood on his sleeve." She chuckled. "It's a good thing the bed's leared out!"

She couldn't believe what kind of effect his charm had on woman. Sure, he was too good looking for his own good, but his tone and personality multiplied it. With wide, silver eyes, Hinata turned to Sasuke with a look of gratitude and understanding on his face. "T-thank you..." If she had gotten to close to the blood, her dizzy spell would've started all over again.

"...Where are you going? My car's over there."

"I-I can drive!" Just to prove her point, Hinata tried walking in a straight line towards her car, stumbling over an imaginary log. She yelped when she felt someone grab the hood of her sweater, pulling her backwards. His grip was so strong, it was all Hinata could do to keep from falling oer and being dragged the rest of the way. While she struggled to walk backwards, her arms were flailing in all directions. With a sigh, she slid into the passenger seat of his shiny Evo.

"Wait, what about my car!"

"I'll have Tenten or Uzumaki drop it off at your house."

"N-Naruto?"

"...You're right. I'll have Tenten drop it off."

"N-No, they don't have the key."

He turned around too quickly for her to follow, and gave her a wicked crooked grin. "Don't worry about it."

The speedometer slowly cimbed its way up, clearly ignoring the traffic regulations. Hinata gripped the arm rests of her car tighter; she wasn't accustomed to driving over 30 miles per hour. "A-Ano, Sasuke-san..."

"One."

"H-Huh?"

"I know you're just dying to ask me one of your questions."

She blushed and looked out the window; big mistake. The poor girl nearly tossed the apple when she saw how quickly the trees were moving outside. She opted to look down at her hands. "W-Well..."

"Ask me."

"I-It's stupid..."

"Just tell me. I'm interested."

"Well..." she glanced sideways at him; he was staring at her, manuvering the car with only one hand, currently going at 85 MPH. Hinata gasped. "Are you...a...um...s-superman?"

He smirked at her answer. "I thought you'd be more creative than that." Sasuke looked at her closely, then turned to face the road. "You're hiding something."

"Huh?"

"You're not telling me what you think."

Hinata gulped; it was true. She had already formulated a theory days after meeting them. They never ate, their protein shakes made her dizzy, she could've sowrn some of them had fangs, and they, well at least one of them, had inhuman speed and strength. She used to read a lot of books on mythology as a youth, so the answer clicked in her head immediately. But it was so absurd, so unfeasable that she had yet to admit it to herself. She had a hard time even considering it inside her head; how was she supposed to tell him?

Then an image of his ring on her finger flashed through her head. No, she couldn't back down; not when so much was at stake here. She really had to do this, didn't she? "I need answers..." Hinata hadn't meant to say it aloud, but it was a good thing she did.

"Maybe I can give them."

Inhaling deeply, Hinata closed her eyes and readied herself to be laughed like. She covered her ears and sighed. "I think...I think you're all...vampires."

...Silence...

Poking one eye open, she peered up at Sasuke, who had grown stiff at her words. He was gripping the steering wheel a little to tight for comfort, and his eyes were darkening. There was a questioning look in his eyes, as if he couldn't quite understand her. So he through his hands up in confusion (causing Hinata to get a heart attack), and almost laughed. "You have got to be the dumbest person alive."

Excuse me? "Y-You told me to tell you w-what I thought!"

"No, you think I'm a vampire, yet you're sitting in a car with me?" Sasuke leaned in close to her, so that they were nearly nose to nose. He took a big whiff of her, causing a coldness to spread in her. "You know, I could just lean over and take a bite out of you...right here...right now?"

Swallowing a lump in her throat, she straightened herself in her chair to try to feign that she wasn't afriad. "I"m not scared." Somehow, she had managed that without a stutter.

"You don't think I'm scary?" His sly, crooked smile exposed his sharp, point fangs.

"Well, if you wanted to kill me...I-I suppose you would've done it already."

"Hm...maybe you're not so stupid."

"Er, thanks?"

Sasuke did what was apparently a laugh, then looked to the front again. "So what's your story?"

"A-Ano?"

"Where's your family?"

She leaned against the window, resting his chin in his arms. "They're dead?"

"All of them?"

There was a pause, as if she remembered something, and blinked. "Yes."

Sasuke turned away, to conceal his smirk. "If you say so."

"Why?"

"I'll ask the questions today."

He asked her every question he could think of, on every subject, and every nature. Some were very trivial, others more personal. Hinata answered question after question as honestly as she could; she didn't feel like lying, or hiding anything from him.

"So how old are you?"

She quirked an eyebrow at him. "Seventeen. How about you?"

"Seventeen."

"...How long have you been seventeen?"

And then he actually laughed. "A long time. You're...kind of different."

Because I'm fish-belly pale and I have big white eye balls? "Why?"

"You sit at a table with vampires on a daily basis...and you pass out if you smell blood? You just can't seem to stay out of trouble, can you?"

Hinata's rosy cheeks intensified, creating a big contrast with her pale white skin.

He came to a halt in front of a small apartment complex and grinned. "Try not to get run over by anymore trucks, okay?"

Hinata got out of the car and turned with a hand still perched on the door. "...Will you be there to swoop me out of the way?"

His grin faltered, momentarily giving way to a scowl, but he didn't look as angry as he did before. "Not if luck if on your side."

She closed the door behind her and began to walk to the door steps. And with a hint of laughter she whispered, so softly that no human ear could hear:

"Then again, luck's not something I'm used to having on my side."
