A/N: This is a sort of re-write, I changed it a bit near the end but that's pretty much it.
I don't own Naruto
Chapter 2: Neji's Advise and Flashbacks
Hinata went inside her room and opened up her window. It was now 4:00 pm and she had finished all of her homework and answered all of her father's questions like: "How was your first day?" "Did you join any teams?" "Was anyone impressed by you?" And all those other questions a father asks.
Hinata lied on top of her bed. "Now what do I do? I'm done all my homework, I've picked up Hanabi, I've answered all of my dad's questions...And it only took me an hour" she said to herself.
But then there was a knock on her door. Hinata turned away from the window and looked at the door. "Who is it?" she asked.
"Neji." the person answered "May I come in Hinata?"
"Ok..." she said nervously as Neji entered.
Neji had long black hair that he put into a low pony-tail. Like all Hyuuga family members he had light purple eyes that had no pupil. He wore a cream colored t-shirt with black shorts. He had some sort of bandage on his legs and on his right arm. He also wore black sandals.
"So I heard that you go to Leaf High now, I never saw you today." he said sitting down.
"H-How did y-you know Neji-niichan?" she asked. "I heard the principal talking to some teachers explaining that they would be having a new student. And I think I saw you in the hall with a red head." he said.
"O-oh...R-r-really?" she asked. "Why are you so nervous Hinata?" he asked. "I-I-I'm not nervous N-Neji-niichan." she said.
"Well in that case I have to tell you something." he said. "Shit, I hope he didn't realize the red head I was with was Gaara-kun. And what would he want to tell me about?" Hinata wondered. "W-What Neji?" she asked.
"Did you hear about a musical that the school is doing?" He asked. Hinata nodded. "Don't tryout for it." he said. "W-wh-what?" She asked out of pure confusion. "He thinks I'm going to try out for a musical? Yeah right, I can't sing...well not in front of people anyway." Hinata thought.
"I know you have a pretty good voice but there is no way you could do it. So don't even bother." he said
Those words hurt. Even though they were true. "And," Neji said. Hinata looked up. "How would sing with you anyway?" He mocked. "The musical they're doing is a duet one." he said.
"Oh." was all Hinata could say. "I'm going to go for a walk ok Niichan?" she said getting up. "Whatever."
Earlier just before Hinata opened her window...
"So this is where Hinata lives." a red head thought to himself.
Sabaku Gaara had fallowed Hinata back to her house, but of course, she didn't know. He saw a few minutes later, Hyuuga Neji enter the same house Hinata had. "So they are brother and sister." He thought. "Shit."
Gaara saw Hinata through a window that had the blinds removed. He quickly hid as she opened the window for some fresh air. "That was close...She almost saw me...Wait a second, why do I care if she sees me?" Gaara wondered as he made his way over to the window and making sure that no one saw him anyway.
He sat under the window, he heard Hinata talking to someone. "She seems scared by someone." Gaara smirked. He looked into the window quickly then hid back down, luckily no one in the room saw him. "So she's talking to Neji huh? I wonder what they're talking about."
Gaara, being his, I-Must-Know-Everything, self, he listened to what they where talking about.
When he heard that they where talking about the day at school and the musical, thoughts came into his mind like: "So he did see us today..." "Why is Hinata shuttering?" "Hinata can sing?" "Who are you Neji to say she shouldn't try out and that no one would sing with her?" Then he realized what he was thinking. "Why did I just think all that? Oh well." He then saw Hinata come out of the house.
"Where the hell is she going?" He wondered. He decided to follow her
Hinata left her house and started to walk around the area. "I guess I could just walk around...Get to know the area better..." Hinata said to herself.
She walked passed all sorts of houses, a flower shop (She swore that she saw Ino inside working.), a book shop (She saw Kakashi buying a book with the title 'Make-out Praise Vol. Seven'. That pervert), She also walked passed lots of other stores and homes.
She then saw a Ramen shop. Inside she heard some-what of a familiar voice of Uzumaki Naruto. "Another bowl please!" he shouted. "Coming right up Naruto!" a man answered.
Hinata peeked inside and saw Naruto now eating another bowl of Ramen and beside him there was about 18 other dishes. "Did...Did he eat all of that?" Hinata wondered. "Oh well..." she thought and started walking again.
She then came to a park that was completely empty.
She looked at her watch and it was about 5:00. "Wow I've been out that long?" She wondered. Oh well no one had coming looking for her so she just went and sat down on a bench, man she was tired from walking for that long.
Gaara had fallowed he all over the town. He had no idea why he was, probably because he had nothing better to do. Beats having his sister yelling at him about his room being messy...
FLASHBACK
"GAARA!" Temari yelled as she looked inside Gaara's very, very, VERY messy room
"What do you want neechan? I'm trying to eat!" He yelled walking out of the kitchen and into the hallway to see a very mad Temari.
"Shit did she see my room? Shit I'm dead..." he whispered to himself
"Why is your room such a mess!" she shouted.
He shrugged. "I don't know...why?" he said stupidly.
"What do you mean 'why?'" she asked.
"You asked 'why is your room such a mess. So I said I don't know. Why?" he said simply.
"GAAH! YOUR HOPELESS!." She shouted.
"What's your point?" he asked
"GAAH!" she shouted not being able to think of anything
"Do you see your brother's room being such a mess?" Temari asked.
Just as she said that a boy came out of the room across from Gaara's.
Inside the room was even messier then Gaara's, if you can imagine that.
Gaara looked inside Kankuro's room quickly then turned to Temari. "No, I don't see it being as messy as mine, its worse then mine." Gaara said. That ticked Tamari off.
"GAAH! KANKURO!" Temari shouted seeing his room.
"What?" he asked stupidly.
"Your room is a mess! It's worse then Gaara's!"
"So?" he asked.
"GAAH! BOTH YOU BOYS ARE HOPELESS!" she shouted.
"We know." they said at the same time.
Temari then saw a magazine lying on Kankuro's bed. "Kankuro is that-?" she said pushing passed him. "A HENAI MAGAZINE! WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING FOR GAARA?" She shouted.
Kankuro actually thought about it. "Humm...The example I'm trying to make for him is...If he ever buys a porno, hide it from you." he said.
Both boys started laughing their asses off. But that didn't last long. Temari then smacked both of them in the face. "CLEAN UP YOUR ROOMS! NOW!" She shouted.
Both boys ran into they're rooms and started cleaning...There was no way they could win a fight with Temari when she got mad.
"Note to self: Never let Temari see my room again." Gaara said to himself
"I heard that!" Temari said.
"No you didn't!" Gaara yelled jokingly.
END FLASHBACK
Gaara saw Hinata sitting on a bench in the park. "What's with her?" he thought.
Gaara came out of hiding and started walking towards her. "What the hell am I doing? stop! Stop!" he shouted at himself in his head, but his legs kept going. "STOP god dammit!" his legs finally stopped moving. Gaara then noticed that he was standing right behind the bench. "SHIT!" he thought.
"Hinata?" he whispered.
"Why'd I say her name?" he wondered
Hinata jumped and turned around. "G-Gaara-sama!" she said. "She didn't call me Gaara-kun this time...I wonder why...did Temari...?" he thought.
"What's wrong?" he asked, even though he already knew the answer.
"I...It's...I...It's nothing Gaara-sama." she lied. "Your lying." he said. "H-h-how do you know?" she asked.
"Your stuttering." he said. "I-I always-" she began but Gaara cut her off.
"Are you afraid of me Hinata?" he asked sitting down next to her. "I...I...I don't know..." she said. "Did...Tamari tell you?" he asked. "T-t-tell me what Gaara-sama?" she asked.
"That, that I'm..." he began. "Should I tell her? What if Tamari didn't tell her? Oh well I started, might as well finish." he thought. "That you're what Gaara-sama?" she asked again.
"Sabaku Gaara." he said.
Hinata froze. "He is Sabaku...the one Neji-niichan told me about..." Hinata thought.
FLASHBACK
Neji walked into the door and Hinata came out of the kitchen. She screamed when she saw Neji had a black-eye. "Neji-niichan! Are you alright?" she asked worriedly.
Neji looked at her. He decided he would tell her. "Long story, common." he said walking past Hinata telling her to follow him. They went inside the living room and Neji closed the door to make sure no one would over hear. "Swear you will not tell anyone." he said. "I swear." "Good." Neji said.
"It was Sabaku Gaara." he said.
"Who?" Hinata asked. "And why did he punch you?"
"Well..." Neji started. "Gaara is one of the only red heads in the school, He's your age too. He gets into lots of fights, even with his own siblings that go to my school. He got into a fight with me today." he said. "Why?" Hinata asked. "I'm not sure." he said. "D-did you lose Neji-niichan?" she asked.
"Tell no one." was all he said. "Y-you did?" She asked in amazement. He nodded.
"If you ever go to Leaf High Hinata..." Neji began. "What?" she asked. "If you ever go to Leaf High, stay away from Sabaku, if I see you with him I will hurt you, understand?" he said. "Why would-would you hurt me?" she asked, shocked. "Because, if you're with him, you'll get hurt anyway, understand?" he said
Hinata nodded. "Okay Neji-niichan." she said.
END FLASHBACK
"Hinata. Answer my question." Gaara said.
"I-I-I have to go Gaara-sama, it's 5. I have to make dinner..." Hinata lied. She got up but then Gaara grabbed her wrist; forcing her to stay.
"Gaara...please let me go." She said. Gaara shook his head. "Answer my question." he said coldly.
"I-I'm not afraid of you Gaara-sama, but..." Hinata said. "But what?" Gaara asked. He wanted to know, he didn't know why but he wanted to know.
"I-I-I'm not allowed..." she whispered.
"Not allowed to what?" he asked, moving closer, they where only an inch apart now.
"I'm not allowed to...To...Be near you..." she whispered, tears starting to come down her cheeks.
"Why?" he asked.
Hinata looked down at the floor. "N-Neji..." she said in a very low whisper, Gaara barely heard her.
"So, he told you that I punched him huh?" Gaara asked. Hinata nodded. "Why are you afraid of Neji?" Gaara asked. Hinata didn't answer, she just looked down at the ground. "Answer!" he shouted, gripping her wrist harder.
"He...He..." Hinata began but she started crying. "What did he do Hinata-chan?" he asked. He added 'chan' to the end of her name to see if that would help.
Hinata looked up, shocked. "Did he just say Hinata-chan? ...Maybe I should tell him..." Hinata thought.
"H-He...Threatened..." Hinata began but trailing off at the end.
"He threatened you?" Gaara finished the sentence for her. Hinata nodded.
"Why are you scared of your brother?" Gaara asked. "Neji isn't my brother, he's my cousin." Hinata whispered. "Oh." Was all Gaara said.
"I'm...just afraid..." Hinata said.
Gaara took his other hand and forced her to look up at him.
Gaara put his head to her ear and whispered: "If you want to try out for the musical...you should." Hinata's eyes widened. "How? How did Gaara know? Was, was he spying on me?" Hinata wondered. "But... Neji-niichan told me...that you need a partner if you want to tryout..." Hinata said.
"You'll find someone..." Gaara said. "Your one of the prettiest girls in school." he said.
He then kissed her lightly on the cheek.
Hinata was shocked at what Gaara just said and did. So was Gaara.
Hinata went super red. "It's...It's almost 5:30...don't you have to...make dinner or something?" Gaara asked. Good thing it was dark because he was also somewhat red. She nodded. "I-I-I'll see y-you tomorrow G-G-Gaara-kun." running off as fast as she could.
Gaara stayed there for a few minutes. "Did...I just say she was one of the 'prettiest' girls in school? That was stupid...And I kissed her on the cheek! What the hell is wrong with me?" Gaara said to himself. Gaara stayed there for a few more minutes and realized something. "She called me Gaara-kun again." This time, he wasn't mad about her giving him the title "kun" at the end of his name. He smirked.
Then he heard Temari scream: "GAARA!"
"Shit...She saw my room..." Gaara thought as he walked home.
