Drops of Blood

Chapter 6

Jiriya was sprawled out on the couch with a bottle of booze in his hand just kicking back and watching tv.

Out of no where Naruto burst through the door with Hinata trailing behind him.

"Whoa! Naruto, when did you get so bold?!" Jiriya jumped to conclusions.

"Would get your mind out of the gutter long enough to help us?!"

"What? Is she pregnant or something?"

"No!" They declared in unison, a deep red blush appearing on their faces.

"Ok, then what do you want?"

"Her father abuses her, can she stay with us? Please Jiriya. I don't him to hurt her anymore."

"So you want her to stay here while I tip off the police, right?"

"Please." He whispered.

"Fine." He sighed.

"Thank you." Hinata whispered.

Come Monday Hinata's father was finally back from his weekend trip.

"Neji, where is Hinata?" He demanded.

"I haven't seen her since Friday sir."

"Why weren't you watching her?! Who was she with?!"

"Hinata's a grown girl. And I don't know who she was with." He lied.

"I can't believe she would do this!"

"Can you blame her? If my father was a psycho who abused me I wouldn't stick around either."

Hiashi grabbed his neck and slammed him into the counter.

"See what I mean." His words in gasps.

Hiashi released his grip.

"Get out of my face."

Neji gathered his books and headed off to school.

"Hinata I don't think you should go to school today. I'll tell you what you missed." Naruto kissed her cheek.

"Yes, thank you Naruto."

"I'll see ya later." He shut the door.

She settled on the couch and turned on the tv.

"Naruto, I take it you've been taking good care of my cousin?" Neji caught up to him in the hall.

"So you know?" Naruto whispered.

"Don't worry, I won't tell. I'm glad Naruto."

"I guess I'm just worried."

"Naruto, I've noticed a change in you."

"Huh?"

"Never mind." Neji then headed off to his next class.

"Hey Naruto, what was that all about? Have you seen Hinata today?" Kiba questioned.

"Hinata? Um, no."

"Hm, I wonder if she's sick." He pondered.

"Don't worry Kiba, I'm sure she's fine."

Kiba noted that Naruto was hiding something, he could tell by his eyes. (A/N: Ok so the other day at lunch this happened to me. This guy said he told my crush that I liked him and then Janet gives me this look and her eyes are all glossy. That's when I knew things were going horribly for me.)

He would find out one way or another.

Jiriya came home during the middle of the day with a few police officers with him.

"Hinata, these men would like to talk to you."

Hinata nodded and walked over to them.

"Can you tell me how long this problem has been going on?" One asked.

"Since I was six."

"Why didn't you report it?"

"I was scared, if it weren't for Naruto I would have never found the courage." She replied.

The officer with the notepad nodded and was recording her words.

"And your wrists?"

She hadn't even realized that she'd left them bare.

"My emotions got the best of me."

"Well, we're going to investigate this and I'm sure someone's going to have you go to counseling. We'll be in touch."

They then left.

"Well I gotta go kid, Naruto should be home in a few hours. I'll give you kids some time." He winked as her shut the door.

Hinata couldn't help but blush at his comment, how vulgar!

Naruto jumped into his car after school not knowing Kiba was right behind him.

"Naruto I think I left something at your house the other day can I drop by?"

"It's not the best time Kiba."

"Cut the crap Naruto, what's up with Hinata?! I know you know!"

"She's staying with me for a while, to get away from her father. You must know anyway."

"Why couldn't you have just come out and said that?! I love Hinata way more than you ever will! You're just doing this to get even!"

"Get even?! I love Hinata!"

Kiba was shocked. He could tell Naruto actually meant it.

"Promise to take care of her for me." Kiba ran off.

"I love her."

A/N: He loves her!! Aww! You should all be proud of me I managed to update all but two of my stories today! My mind went blank...

Anywho, please review!
