A/N: Hey guys!
I'm back with another chappie!
In the last chapter I said there would be NaruIno in this chapter and there is a little bit of NaruIno, but it's only talked about.
Sorry, I just didn't find anywhere to fit any of it. Also, I said there would be problems arising and I have stuck to that! Problems are beginning to rise!
If any of you are reading my other fic 'Welcome to team taka', I'm really sorry but I have a complete mind block and I have so many ideas for this fic.
I would have updated this chapter sooner but I'm working on another fic, it has the pairing HitsuHina (Bleach, Toshiro and Momo) and if you like that pairings, look out for that.
I'm so glad you liked the last chapter and I hope you like this one too.
Remember to review
I update faster with more reviews.
The rumour's travelling around the school, passed down from mouth to mouth like some sort of contagious disease.
"Did you hear? Saturday night, Ino and Naruto hooked up at Ino's party"
I've heard people talk about that so many times, it's making my ears hurt.
And my head.
And my chest.
It's Monday morning, period two, History class.
I haven't seen Ino today, she didn't meet me by the gate like she normally does. That makes me even more worried.
Even so, I'm sure the rumour's not true.
Ino would never do that to me, she knows I like Naruto. Well, I don't really like him in that way anymore, but she doesn't know that.
I've only known Ino for a few weeks but I know her well enough to know that she'd never betray me. At least that's what I'm hoping.
If the rumour turns out to be true I have no idea what I'll do.
I've never actually had a friend as close as Ino before so I'm not sure how I'll react.
Even though I don't like Naruto anymore, it will be her betrayal that hurts me, not what she did.
I wind my fingers through my hair and sigh in exasperation.
Stop thinking so negatively Hinata!
The bell goes and I exit the classroom quickly and hurry to the cafeteria to meet Ino.
I smile when I see she's there waiting for me in her usual spot, but when I approach her and see her properly I frown.
Ino doesn't look herself. She's chewing on her lip anxiously with her legs crossed uncomfortably. She doesn't make eye contact with me until I sit down next to her.
"You've heard the rumours right?" She asks as she interlaces her fingers together and I nodd my head.
"It's alright Ino, they're just rumours. It's not like you actually did hook up with him…."
Ino looks up at me guiltily and I widen my eyes.
"Did you?"
My lavender eyes meet with azure blue eyes. Her eyes usually look like shallow swimming pools, you can tell what's going on in that head of hers. Now her eyes are deep. I can't see the bottom.
She swallows and fiddles with her fingers, avoiding my question.
"Ino...what did you do?" I ask softly and she clenches her hands into fists.
"The rumour's not true, but I did something almost as bad" The blonde mumbles and I freeze.
"What did you do?" I question her in a quiet voice.
"I'm so sorry Hinata. I really am" She whispers and I tilt her head up so her eyes meet mine.
"Just tell me Ino"
"Naruto stayed the night at my house, with lots of other people as well because they were too drunk to drive home. In the morning we were talking about what we remembered last night, one thing lead to another and next minute we were making out on my bed. I came to my senses and pushed him off me before it went any further but…it was too late…I already did it" She explains and I inhale deeply and blink a few times.
There's an aching pain in my chest and I'm trying to ignore it.
Betrayal hurts.
"And do you know what the worst part is?" She continues and wipes her watering eyes with her sleeve.
"I think I'm actually starting to like him"
Tears of frustration trail down her cheeks and I gawk at her in shock.
I stay silent and she looks at me with guilty eyes.
"I'm so sorry I ruined our friendship" She says before swinging her legs over the bench and standing up to leave.
I frown at Ino.
"Where are you going?" I ask her and she twists her head around with a surprised expression on her face.
"What do you mean? I'm leaving. You hate me now" She tells me as if it's the most obvious thing in the world.
I raise an eyebrow at her.
"Yeah, I'm hurt and a bit mad but I don't hate you. Why do we have to stop being friends over this? I don't want our friendship to end like yours and Sakura's did. Aren't we a bit more mature than that?" I question her and Ino raises an eyebrow at me quizzically.
"But, I made out with the guy that you liked" Ino states, scratching her head in confusion.
I sigh and pat her on the head.
"Ino, I don't even like Naruto anymore. And you didn't do it to betray me, you did it because you like him. I don't really blame you. Besides, isn't it stupid for two friends to break apart because of a boy. That's pre-school stuff" I fold my arms and Ino wipes her eyes with her sleeve and giggles.
"That is kind of stupid"
I nodd my head and Ino looks up at me expectantly.
"If you don't like Naruto, then who do you like?" She asks curiously and feel my cheeks go hot.
"Nobody" I say quickly and Ino's eye's widen with more curiosity.
"You're blushing! Tell me who it is" She persists and I cover my face with my hands.
"I told you, it's nobody" I insist and Ino laughs and peals my hands away from my face.
"Tell me Hina-chan. I still feel guilty about the Naruto thing so I want to make it up to you"
I sigh.
"Fine. I kind of like…Sasuke"
Ino's eyes widen in surprise and she chuckles to herself.
"Sasuke? Are you serious? I thought you hated him! Aren't you two worst enemies?"
I bury my face in my hands once again.
"I know! It's so shameful!" I cry and Ino pats me on the back.

I glance at my watch : 1.45 pm.
Right about now, I bet Naruto's in history class being lectured by Asuma for drawing an army of stick figures over his History test.
He's probably going to get mad at me again for skipping history but whatever, I'll do what I want.
Besides, it's Thursday period 4 at the moment and I'm scheduled to meet Sakura the bike shed.
Unusually, I'm not going for a make out session. I'm going to tell her that I'm cancelling all appointments behind the bike shed.
Yup, that's right, I'm giving up on sluts. Hn, they're boring anyway and fail to entertain me now.
And if you're thinking that I'm doing this because of The Hyuuga, you're wrong!
I am not giving this up for her!
I'm doing it for myself.
Okay, maybe I'm doing it a little for The Hyuuga but mostly myself.
I'm planning on telling Sakura about this because she's the most likely person to spread it around the school with that enormous mouth of hers.
I approach the red bike shed and make turn until I reach the back of it.
The reason why I meet girls here is because behind it, there's a comfortable grass patch with a small shelter going over it. Student's never come here unless invited because they know it's my domain (there are perks of being king of the school) and teachers are too clueless to notice it
Suddenly a pink blur races out of nowhere and leaps on top of me. We both topple to the grass and Sakura Haruno leans over me, pink locks scratching my face.
"You're late" She whispers before pressing her lips to mine and slipping her tongue into my mouth.
I gag slightly, my tongue receiving a sickly-sweet plastic taste of strawberry lip-gloss.
"Hey, Get off me" I order her and she reluctantly obeys by rolling off my body and sitting on the grass pouting.
I regain my stance and I fold my arms.
"I didn't come here for the make-out session, I came here to tell you that I'm not going to do this anymore. No more making out behind here, tell all the other fan girl's too" I inform her and begin to leave before she grasps my hand tightly.
"Aren't you going to give me an explanation?" The pink haired girl questions me and I frown at her.
"I don't have to give you an explanation. I'm not coming here anymore, it's as simple as that" I hiss at her and she furrows her eyebrows at me.
Apple green eyes soften and she grasps my hand tighter.
"Is it that you're tired of being a player? Is that why you're stopping? If that's the case, take me. Take me as your girlfriend. You wont regret it Sasuke-kun" She reassures me and I snatch my hand away.
"It's not just because of that and I'm not looking for a girlfriend" I state and she clambers to her feet, and places two manicured hands on my shoulders.
Her eyes lock with mine and crinkles appear on her forehead in frustration.
"Is it because of Hinata? Who would like that snobby little Hyuuga brat? She thinks she's better than everyone just because her Dad owns Hyuuga-corp" Sakura sneers and I try to remove her hands from my shoulders but she refuses.
"It's not that either. Leave me alone" I growl but she continues to rant and cling onto my shoulders.
"I heard she likes Naruto anyway, the only reason she talks to you is to get closer to Naruto. It's pointless going after her, stay with me" She leans in closer but I shove her off of me. She exaggerates her fall and tumbles onto the grass.
"It's impossible that Hinata's using me because she only talks to me when I talk to her and you don't know jack shit if she thinks she's superior to everyone or not because you hardly even know her. Also, stop telling me who to go out with because I can make my own fucking decisions" I scowl at her as emerald green eyes start to water and I roll my eyes.
"Sasuke-kun...Why don't you ever look at me, the way you look at her?" She asks as fat tears stream down her cheeks and I turn away from her.
"I don't know what you're talking about"

Hinata Hyuuga
Who the fuck do you think you are?
How dare you take away my Sasuke-kun!
Meet me behind the gym after school so I can smash your face in
Amaya Hayashi
Class 7a
I rip the note off my locker and stuff it into my pocket, cursing under my breath.
This must be the seventeenth death threat note I've received today!
Ugh!
Stupid rumours!
Today's rumour is that Sasuke has stopped slutting around because of me.
Which I know for a fact is utter bullshit.
The Dragon probably got annoyed of all the fan girl's chasing him around at school and decided to dump all the blame on me for the fun of it.
That bastard! Remind me why I like him again?
I suppose he's act's actually an alright person if you get to know him well enough, I'm not telling him that though! This is far too embarrassing!
Anyway I need to confront him about these rumours before it get's too out of hand.
I have countless amounts of fights scheduled this week now - not that I'm planning on attending any of them- and it's going to get complicated if Sasuke-Fan-girl's end up chasing me around at lunch time in a mob.
Good thing I have PE now,
I sigh and make my way to the gym where most students are already there, warming up with Gai sensei. Ino's not there because she's busy rushing around the school to find Coach Anko about some sort of mix up in the new cheerleading uniforms or something.
I quickly change into my PE gear and start warming up next to Sasuke.
"Now stretch your legs as far as possible! Try to feel to burn in your legs" Gai instructs and I start to bend over after nudging Sasuke in the side.
"What is it Hyuuga?" He asks patiently.
"Are you the one who told everyone you've stopped going around with girls for me?" I question him and he freezes for a moment and twists his head sideways before shaking his head violently, his cheeks going slightly red with annoyance.
"No! You flatter yourself too much Hyuuga, why would you think I stopped because of you?" He splutters and I raise an eyebrow at him.
"Don't get your panties in a twist, I never said I believed it, I just want you to stop spreading that stupid lie. Almost all the girl population at this school want me dead now" I hiss and he frowns at me.
"My panties aren't in a twist- I don't wear panties, and I didn't start that rumour" He states firmly and I furrow my eyebrows together.
"Then fix it! Tell them the real reason why you quit or make up one! By the way, out of curiosity, what is the reason why you quit?" I ask him and his cheeks show a faint tint of red.
What the hell? He's blushing?
He must've quit for some sort of embarrassing reason.
"Do you have crabs or some other STI?" I question him and he glares at me.
"No! I don't have crabs!" He hisses and I tap my chin.
"Oh yeah, that's impossible because you don't have any pubes"
"Shut-up!"
"If you don't have an STI, then why are you stopping?" I ask impatiently and he frowns at me.
"That's none of your business" He folds his arms stubbornly.
"Alright class! Now that we've finished stretching, let's some laps around the gym court" Gai-sensei announces and the whole class moans and starts to jog around the gym court.
I sigh as I separate myself from Sasuke, knowing that we'll probably only end up arguing more if I tried to talk to him about it. He won't even tell me why he quit!
Even so, I'm happy he's stopped. It's mean for him to hook up with girls then dump them straight afterwards, also it's kind of getting on my nerves how almost every girl in the school has made out with him except for me and a few others.
Not that I'm jealous or anything. Gross! As if I want to make out with him!
Okay, I kind of do, but only a tiny bit.
This is so embarrassing.
Whilst cursing myself for liking a bastard like Sasuke, I find myself falling behind the running pack a bit.
Hmm…I'm falling behind, I better catch up, even Pinkie's in front of me.
I quicken my pace and over take Sakura, silently cheering myself on in my head.
Suddenly a trainer with hot pink shoe laces latches onto my foot and I tumble to the gym floor, twisting my ankle as I land on my side.
"Crap" I mutter before I wince in pain and grasp my ankle.
That bitch! She tripped me!
Sakura rushes to my side.
"Oh no! Hinata-san, are you alright?" She asks me with fake concern in her voice as she kneels down beside me.
"That's what you fucking deserve for taking my Sasuke-kun away" She hisses under her breath and I am extremely tempted to sock her in the nose.
Most of the girl's in the class are sniggering at me while Gai sensei examines my ankle.
"I'm fine" I declare stubbornly as I clamber to my feet.
Stupid girls. Stupid Sakura. I'll show her! I don't care if she snaps my leg in half, she's not going to get in my way. Her actions won't affect me.
"Hinata-san, sit down, you've sprained your ankle, run any more and you're at risk of a serious injury" Gai tells me and I let my eyes meet with his.
"I'm okay, this is nothing" I try to reassure him as I manage to stand up, using my left leg for support.
"It's not nothing. Sit down while one of the students get's some ice" He insists and I roll my eyes.
I swing my right leg around a bit, ignoring the pain jolting through my ankle. I've gotten pretty good at pretending I'm not hurt, after years of MMA training you eventually learn to withstand it so the opponent doesn't notice your weak points.
"See, my ankle's fine" I gesture to my foot and Gai raises his bushy eyebrows in surprise for a moment.
Good, he's starting to believe me.
"Don't fall for that, did you see the way she fell over? She's definitely sprained her ankle, she's just ignoring the pain. Make her sit down" Sasuke informs Gai and Gai gives Sasuke the thumbs up.
"Nicely spotted Sasuke, exactly what I would expect from the top student of my class" He beams at Sasuke and Sasuke frowns at him.
Damn you Uchiha! I almost got away with that!
"I already told you I'm fine!" I insist and the raven haired boy shakes his head.
"You moron, if you keep going your injury will get worse. Sit down and top being so damn stubborn!" He orders me and I fold my arms.
"No, I'm not sitting down" I declare and The Uchiha scowls at me.
"Fine. I suppose if you're going to be difficult, we'll have to do this the difficult way" He states and I shoot him a confused look.
Without another word he scoops me up and slings me over his shoulder.
"Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing? Let me go!" I whine as I struggle to wriggle out of his grip.
"I'm taking her to the nurse to get some ice" He informs Gai-sensei before hauling me out of the gym.
"You're really stupid, you know that? Why can't you just sit down and let someone to bring you ice for your sore ankle" Sasuke scolds me once I stop attempting to kick him in the face.
"I'm not stupid. I just don't want them to know they're getting to me, I don't want them to win" I sigh as I blow a strand of indigo hair out of my eyes as I bounce lightly on his shoulder.
He tightens his grip around my legs.
"I must admit it feels good to win, but I doubt it's worth your ankle" He points out.
There is a long pause and for once, I don't have a reply to that.
"I wouldn't have to do this if you would tell everyone why you stopped hooking up with girls" I say absent mindedly and he nodds.
"I'll get round to that. Meanwhile, be a bit more careful. I bet Sakura wouldn't have been able to trip you up if you weren't so occupied with your thoughts. I can't believe you zoned out while you had a pinked haired menace behind you" His arm moves slightly further up my leg to get a better grip so I don't slip off his shoulder.
"Yeah, whatever" I reply as I stare at the concrete.
Hmm…this is kind of comfortable…wait a sec.
"Sasuke?"
"Mm hm?"
"Get your hand off my ass"
A/N:
Soooo…What did you think?
At the start it was all angsty and gloomy. Admittedly, I got bored of writing that way (I like cheerful stuff) so I kind of tried to end the gloominess ASAP.
Although, it's not like it's unrealistic.
I mean, who wouldn't be able to forgive someone who's crying with guilt over something they did?
I bet a lot of you are happy that Sasuke's given up slutting around. To be honest, I'm happy too. If Sasu-chan wants to be good enough for Hina-chan, he needs to get his act together.
It's getting kind of difficult trying to keep Sasuke's arrogance while trying to get him to be a bit nicer but I'm kind of managing.
Tell me what you think about this chapter because I'm not entirely confident in it. If lots of people don't like it, I'll take it down and rewrite it.
Review please….pretty please?
