Drops of Blood
Chapter 2
When she got home she immediately was sent to do chores while her father and younger sister watched tv.
"Hinata! You haven't cleaned the kitchen floor yet you despicable child!"
"Yes father."
"Hanabi never, ever be like your worthless sister."
"Yes father." Hanabi smiled.
After Hinata finished her chores to her father's liking she went up stairs to finish her homework.
It was late by the time she got to bed and she was exhausted.
She fell down into the sheets of her bed.
She turned her radio on and it played softly.
She clutched the white sheets as blood dripped from her healing wrist wound.
Why was this happening to her? There were so many other kids in the world that had happy families but here she was, the eldest Hyuga child. Everyone expected her to have a perfect life, but they knew nothing about the real ways of Haishi Hyuga.
Silent tears soaked into the sheets along with the blood.
She cried herself to sleep.
Naruto was stretched out on the couch watching tv. It was already way past mid-night.
The door swung open and Jiriya and another woman stumbled in.
"What? Why are you still up kid?"
"Uh I should probably go." The woman scurried out.
"No! Wait!" Jiriya called down the hall.
Jiriya eventually gave up and slammed the door.
"Damn, why the hell did I get stuck with you? I wish your father would have had a different guardian in mind."
"I'm sorry my father died and I have to screw up your life." Naruto said in a melancholy tone.
"I wasn't serious kid. Take it easy."
"Whatever, I'm going to bed."
It was raining the next morning.
She changed her bandages and went down to prepare breakfast.
"Hinata the syrup is warm."
"Sorry father, I'll fix it."
"No! I don't want it. Hanabi and I will pick something up on the way." He threw the pancakes at her and the plate shattered on the floor.
"Now look at what you did! Clean it up!" He pushed her into the plate shards.
Haishi and Hanabi left Hinata on the floor in the kitchen.
With a sigh she cleaned it up, went to change clothes, and then headed off the school.
Hinata sat alone in the class room before class as usual. To her surprise Naruto was the next in and he seemed troubled.
"Hey Hinata."
"Oh, good morning."
He sat down and turned to Hinata.
"I know this seems kind of random but I really need someone to talk to who'll really listen."
"Ok, go ahead."
"Do wish you'd never been born and that everything you do just screws things up more?"
Hinata was shocked, that was her exact feelings about life.
"What am I kidding, there's no way a girl like you could feel that way."
"Well-"
"Hey Naruto I need to ask you something!" Sakura interrupted her and ran to Naruto.
Next Hinata had P.E. (A/N: She changes between P.E. and health.)
Hinata went into the locker room and changed into her gym uniform. (A/N: Evil gym clothes, grrrr!)
Her bandages were now visible so she had to come up with an excuse. She'd say she was carrying a pair of scissors and fell. That was a good excuse.
After changing she headed to the gym.
Usually the guys would usually sit together on the right half of the bleachers and the girls would sit to the left with a few exceptions. (A/N: This is just how it is at my school, I'm not totally sure why.)
Kiba was one of those exceptions.
"Hey Hinata what happened to your wrist?"
"Huh? Oh, I fell while carrying a pair of scissors."
"Damn, that must have hurt! Have you had the doctor check it out?"
"Umm, no. My father said it would be fine."
"What about that bruise on your face?"
"I'll be fine Kiba."
"I just don't want to see you get hurt."
"Thank you Kiba. But you shouldn't worry about me."
The gym teachers came in and took role then they started their track unit. (A/N: I HATE track. Especially the high jump. Grrrr!)
Today they had to run the 200 meter dash. (A/N: Is that what it's called?)
They had to pair up to run so Kiba was against Hinata.
There were multiple rumors spreading about Hinata's wrist.
"Gosh people make me sick." Kiba growled.
"Don't worry Kiba."
Kiba didn't listen. "Hey! Can't some one have an accident with a blade?! It's like none of you have ever tripped before. Damn!" He called out.
The whispers stopped.
"Thank you Kiba."
Kiba just gave her a toothy grin.
Naruto sat in math. He knew that that wound was no accident. He could tell by the bruise on her face, it took the slight shape of a hand.
Sakura walked in and headed straight to Naruto's desk.
"Do you have you answer yet?"
"Oh yeah! Of course Sakura, I'd love to go out with you."
Hinata couldn't believe it, was she hearing right?
Sakura smiled, to her he would be just a pawn that she could play with to get what she wanted.
"Great so are you going to be my date to Ino's party tomorrow night?"
Hinata went blank, now her life truly sucked. Before she believed that she had a chance, a slim one, but at least a chance.
"Yeah, I'll go but I think there's something wrong Hinata."
"Listen Naruto, I'm your girlfriend now and Hinata has no place in your life now."
"Oh."
Hinata came home to find her father, sister, cousin Neji, and her uncle Hizashi.
"Hello Hinata." Her uncle greeted.
"Hello uncle."
"That's some bruise you have there."
Hinata placed her hand over the mark.
Hizashi looked at his twin.
"How would you like to come stay with me for a little while? Maybe a year or two?"
Hinata nodded.
"Hiashi, things will be better this way."
He nodded.
"Neji, go help Hinata get her stuff."
A/N: Naruto is an idiot. There, I said it. Sakura's just trying to use him. Anyways, that will change. Ok, well if you review I'll love you forever and ever. lol.
