This is Chapter 4! Thanks for the reviews. Keep commenting. This chapter is a little short.
Hinata woke up Monday morning and sat up in her bed. She took a long yawn and blinked her eyes into focus. She looked at her floor and saw her party clothes from Saturday. Then she remembered what happened that night.
Hinata thought, "Did it really happen, did me and Naruto…kiss"?
Hinata gentle touched her lips and smiled. She got up off her bed and got ready for school. When it was time to leave Hinata strolled down the streets to Konoha High School. When she arrived she saw Ten Ten waiting for her again.
Hinata said, "Hey, Ten Ten".
Ten Ten looked at her friend and said, "Hey Hinata, you look especially cheerful today".
Hinata blushed and said, "Well, I guess I'm just excited about Mondays."
Hinata giggled and Ten Ten said, "Well, that was a great party on Saturday".
Hinata laughed and said, "That's only because most of the time you were making out with my cousin".
Ten Ten started blushing a deep shade of red.
Hinata laughed and said, "I have to get to class, I'll see you later".
Ten Ten waved bye and Hinata went into the building.
She walked to her first block and sat down at her desk.
Hinata's smile faded when Sakura walked through the door.
Hinata thought, "I'd forgotten about her…"
Sakura sat in her desk talking to her friends about Saturday's party.
Sakura said, "Naruto took me to the party, he said that this would be our first date."
All of Sakura friends said, "Awwwwwww".
Hinata thought, "Yeah right, he doesn't even like you".
The class began and every chance Sakura got she told her friends something that happened between her and Naruto. Kakashi kept telling them to be quiet every time they giggled. Hinata was sitting at her desk with her head hanging low, her hair was covering her face so nobody could see how pissed she was at Sakura's words.
Hinata thought," She's lying, Naruto didn't say any of that…or did he? No, he doesn't like her like that". "I won't let her get to me…or him".
When class ended Sakura's friend asked, "Did he kiss you"?
Hinata's heart stopped and she waited for Sakura's reply.
Sakura leaned back in her desk and said, "No, I think he was taking it easy".
Hinata took a deep sigh and said, "I knew it".
Sakura turned her head toward Hinata and Hinata thought, "Did I just say that out loud... I need to stop doing that".
Sakura snapped her fingers twice in front in Hinata's face catching her attention and said, "What did you say, Hyuuga"?
Hinata smiled and said, "Oh, nothing".
Sakura turned away and said, "Whatever, I don't have time to deal with the poor and pathetic".
Hinata whispered to herself, "That's not what Naruto thinks".
Hinata's whisper was loud enough for Sakura to hear. Sakura's eyes widen and then the bell rang. Hinata collected her stuff and got up to leave.
When Hinata started walking away Sakura screamed, "What did you say"?
Hinata grinned, turned back toward Sakura, and said, "Oh, nothing".
Hinata walked out the door leaving Sakura stunned.
Hinata walked down the hall going to her second class and to see Naruto. Hinata felt a boost of confidence run through her like a new self esteem level. When she walked into the door she saw Naruto looking out the window, he was tapping his pencil, and he's hair was shining in the morning sunlight. He turned to look at her and gave a big smile to Hinata. Hinata couldn't help but to smile back and walked over to him.
Naruto said, "Hey Hinata".
Hinata replied, "Hi".
Sakura came running toward Naruto and wrapped her arms around Naruto's neck.
She screamed, "Hey Naruto".
Naruto looked at Sakura and said, "Hey Sakura, it's always a pleasure to see you".
Sakura smiled and said, "You always flatter me too much".
Hinata sat there quietly thinking, "Why, why does he keep her around"?
The class started and they got there cooking materials.
Hinata thought, "Sakura's not important to Naruto".
Hinata put a smile back on her face and the whole class period Hinata and Naruto talked like they've known each other forever. Hinata could see that Sakura was staring at them but she kept smiling. When the bell rang everyone dispersed into the cafeteria. Hinata got her food and walked over to the usual table with her friends. Neji and Ten Ten was sitting close together and looking at each other blushing.
Temari said, "You too are going to make me puke with all this lovey-dovey stuff".
Ten Ten turned her attention away from Neji and back at the table but she was still blushing.
Temari continued, "I mean when Shikamaru and I got together it was an instant connection, right Shikamaru"?
Shikamaru said, "Yeah, after you stalked me for 3 months you made it hard to say no".
Temari yelled at him and said, "I didn't stalk you, I was just making myself known".
Shikamaru said, "Yeah, whatever you say".
Temari turned really mad and got up to walk away.
Shikamaru walked after her and said, "Wait, Temari, I'm Sorry…Temari!!!"
Shikamaru and Temari left the table and then Neji said, "I got to go, I'll see you later Ten Ten".
Ten Ten waved bye and Neji walked away.
Sakura and her friends came up to the table.
Sakura said, "Oh look, it's the "freak" table".
Sakura's friends laughed at her comment but Ten Ten didn't think it was funny.
Ten Ten replied back, "Oh look it's the spoiled Brat and her two lackeys".
Ino stood forward and said, "What did you say Minnie Mouse"?
Sakura put her hand on Ino's shoulder and said, "Calm down Ino".
Ino stepped back and Ten Ten said, "Yeah Ino, stay in your place".
Sakura turned her attention toward Hinata and said, "Hyuga can't say Hi and I thought we were friends".
Sakura pouted her lips out and her friends laughed.
Ten Ten yelled back and said, "Leave her alone Sakura".
Sakura said, "Stay out of this Tenny this is between me and her but it's not like she's going to do anything".
Sakura said to Hinata, "Hey, are you deaf or something?"
Hinata couldn't take it anymore and stood up slamming her hands on the table.
Hinata said, "Listen bitch I'm tired of this same routine everyday. If you have a problem with me then say it if not take you big forehead out my face."
Suddenly, the cafeteria got quiet and all eyes were on Hinata and Sakura. Hinata was breathing hard and Sakura was staring at her dumbfounded. Even Ino and Ten Ten was stunned at her outburst.
The Superintendent came over and said, "Is there a problem over here"?
Sakura grinned at Superintendent and said, "No, there's no problem".
He walked away and Sakura said to Ino, "Let's go".
Ino stood there and asked, "Wait, are you just going to…"?
Sakura stared at her friend and said, "Are business is done here".
Sakura turned to Hinata still smiling and said, "See you tomorrow Hyuga".
They walked away and Ten Ten started clapping her hands.
Ten Ten put her hand on Hinata's shoulder and said, "Way…To…Go buddy, but sadly the wicked witch ISN'T dead".
Hinata smiled at Ten Ten but she thought, "Sakura's not done…not by a long shot".
The Bell rang so Ten Ten and Hinata went to P.E.
Hinata and Ten Ten got changed and went up to the track. Hinata watched as the Football players and Cheerleaders did there usual practices. Hinata watched Naruto as he chased down the other players.
Hinata thought, "At least I have Naruto".
Hinata looked as Naruto ran down the field and made a Touchdown. Everyone started Cheering and ran up to Naruto.
Hinata was happy for him and said, "Naru…"
Hinata's words were stopped because Sakura had placed her lips on Naruto. Right there across the field was Naruto and Sakura kissing. Hinata felt her eyes swell up and her mind went blank. Hinata turned around and ran to the locker rooms.
Ten Ten watched her friend and said, "Hinata, where you going"?
Even Coach Gai said, "Hinata, class isn't over yet".
Hinata just kept running with tears blurring her eyesight. Hinata didn't want to be here, she wanted to disappear forever. She got her stuff and ran out the school entrance. Hinata kept running down the streets until she got tired. She stopped running and just leaned over to breath. Every breath she took she kept sobbing.
Then someone said, "Look boys, isn't she pretty cute"?
Hinata looked up to see a group of boys standing around her but they weren't in uniform.
Hinata stood up and said, "I've got to go".
Hinata started walking but was stopped by one of the boys.
He said, "Where are you going, we're not done having fun."
Hinata backed away from him but bumped into another guy. They were all moving in closer to Hinata with malicious looks on their faces.
Suddenly someone said, "Leave her alone".
Hinata didn't recognize the voice but she knew his face.
Hinata said, "Shino?"
The guys turned their attention toward the covered up boy and one said, "What do you want"?
Shino said, "Stay away from her".
The guys looked at him and Shino stood there silently. 1 minute later, the boys got creeped out.
The leader of the pack turned away and said, "Whatever, we don't even want her".
They walked away and Hinata said, "Thank you, Shino".
Shino said, "It's no problem".
Then Hinata said, "Wait a second, I though you couldn't speak"?
Shino replied, "I never said I couldn't speak".
Hinata got confused and said, "Wait, but how could you say you couldn't speak if you couldn't speak".
Shino walked over to Hinata and said, "How about I walk you home and tell you on the way".
When Hinata got to her house they stopped and said, "Okay, so you could speak you just didn't feel like it?"
Shino nodded his head and said, "I just didn't have anything to say".
Hinata said, "Not even a laugh or a question".
Shino said, "No".
Hinata looked at her house and back at Shino and said, "You know you should speak up more, you really give everybody the creeps but you're still our friend".
Shino repeated, "Friend"?
Hinata smiled and said, "Yeah, you're always with us at the table and listen to our conversation".
Shino smiled or Hinata thought he was smiling and he said, "Okay, then I'll see you tomorrow."
Shino started walking away and Hinata said, "Thanks Shino, I really needed a friend".
Shino waved his hand bye and walked home.
Hinata walked in her house and her father said, "Hinata, your home early".
Hinata thought, "Oh yeah, I didn't go to the 4th Class".
Hinata said, "I felt a little sick and so they sent me home".
Hiashi had a look of concern and said, "Okay, I'll make you some green tea so you go rest".
Hinata went to her room and laid on her bed. Then Hinata remembered the kiss between Naruto and Sakura. Her heart started hurting again. She buried her face into her pillow and said, "It's not like we were dating".
Hinata took her head out the pillow and felt tears again, she thought, "Why am I crying over this then"?
She thought, "Maybe, I'm wrong." "She could have kissed him".
Hinata didn't feel happy about that answer either.
She thought, "Even if she kissed him, she's just going to keep being around him".
Hinata said, "one step forward, two steps back".
Hinata put her head back in the pillow and said, "Naruto".
Then she cried one more time.
