Chapter 3: The Second Day
It was 7 am when Hinata finally woke up. Well actually...The only reason she woke up was because Neji was banging onto her bedroom door.
"I'm up! I'm up!" she said struggling to get out of bed. She then answered her door. "What?" she said.
"Hinata," Neji said. "Neji! What? Did I over sleep or something?" she asked. "No," he said. "It's time to get up. It's 7:00." he said. "So? School doesn't start until 9:30." Hinata argued. "It takes half an hour to walk there, and it takes you like an hour and a half to get dressed and eat and everything." Neji said. Hinata was about to argue but Neji gave her a look that told her the subject was closed.
Neji then turned around and headed towards the kitchen. Hinata went into the bathroom and took a shower. When she came out it was 7:15.
She got dressed; she was wearing another pair of black pants, she had a white t-shirt on and she put her hair into a pony-tail.
When she got to the kitchen it was 7:25. After she finished breakfast she put on her brown jacket and blue sandals and was about to leave when Neji came. "Let's go." he said. "Y-y-your walking with me?" Hinata asked surprised. "Yeah, but we're also going to walk with Tenten and Lee, they are going to be waiting at the end of the street. Let's go." Hinata nodded and fallowed Neji to the end of the street.
"Yo! Neji-san!" Lee shouted, then he saw Hinata. "Hinata-chan! Your walking with us too?" he asked. "I-I guess so."
"Neji!" Tenten shouted, not noticing Hinata at all as she grabbed onto Neji's arm. They then started walking.
Hinata looked over at Lee. Lee walked over to Hinata. "They've been going out for a while, but they never told anyone, but almost everyone at school has figured it out." Lee whispered. "Oh." Hinata said.
As they reached the school Hinata drifted away from Lee, Neji and the still clinging Tenten.
"Hinata-chan!" a cheery voice yelled. Hinata turned to the direction of the yell. Ino was running forward waving. Hinata waved back.
"Good-good morning Ino-chan." Hinata said.
"Yeah! Good morning to you Hinata-chan!" Ino said with a grin.
"What are you so happy about?" Hinata asked. "You'll have to wait for Sakura to come! Maybe Temari too." Ino said. "But I hope Kankuro and Gaara aren't with her." Ino said.
Hinata looked down at the ground and went pink at Gaara's name. An evil grin came onto Ino's face.
"Ohhh...Do you like Gaara?" Ino asked. Hinata looked up at Ino, shocked. Her face went even redder. "Oooh! You do! You do! You do!" Ino said. "Shh! I-i-if Neji-niichan hears you saying something like that I'm dead." Hinata said.
"Ohh that pro-" Ino started but Hinata smacked a hand over her mouth. "L-Listen, l-listen good." she began. "M-m-me and G-G-Gaara are just friends, un-understand?" Ino nodded. Hinata put her arm down.
Ino and Hinata started talking about random stuff.
Sakura came a few minutes later, Temari, Kankuro and (To Hinata's some-what horror) Gaara behind her.
Temari and Sakura walked up to Ino and Hinata but Kankuro and Gaara turned and went over to the other side of the school. Why? They did not know.
Hinata relaxed a bit when she saw Gaara leave.
"Hey guys!" Ino shouted.
"Hey Ino-chan, Hinata-chan." Sakura said with a smile.
"Hi." Temari said crossing her arms.
"What's with you?" Ino asked.
"Gaara." Temari said. Hinata looked at Temari. "Did...Gaara-kun do something?" She wondered.
"What he do?" Sakura asked.
"He seemed bothered about something when he came home last night and I asked him 'what's wrong?' and he started yelling at me, and his room was a mess! Again!" Temari explained.
Hinata turned red. "Hinata-chan? Are you alright You look a little red." Sakura asked.
"I'm fine I-" Hinata began but someone cut her off.
"Hinata." Neji's voice came behind her. Hinata turned around. "Neji-niichan?" Hinata asked. "I need to talk to you." He said grabbing her wrist.
Neji dragged Hinata over to where they couldn't be over heard.
"What are you doing talking to a Sabaku?" he asked. "You said...Said I'm not...allowed t-to talk to Gaara...You n-never said any-anything about...his siblings." Hinata said. "Well...Don't go near any, Sabaku.
"Bu-!" she wined
"No buts!" he yelled at her.
He yelled a bit to loud, Temari, Ino and Sakura came over. "What are you yelling at Hinata-chan for Neji-san?" Sakura asked.
Neji ignored the pink haired girl and said to Hinata. "Stay away from them, mostly him." He then walked away.
Tears started forming behind Hinata's eyes, but she refused to let them out.
"Hinata-chan?" all 3 girls looked at Hinata. They where about to ask her what Neji was talking about when the bell rang. They then went inside.
Hinata had Drama first again, but it was more like Language Arts
Today they where learning about spelling and grammar. Like they didn't already know that.
During class Sakura kept poking Hinata asking her what the heck Neji meant. She couldn't say anything though because Gaara was right beside her, and she could tell he was listening.
"It's none of your...concern." She said.
"But What did Neji mean your to stay away from "him"? Who's the him?" Sakura asked in a whisper, she also figured out that Gaara was listening. Gaara heard what she said anyway, he had to strain his ears to do it, but he still heard.
"I wonder what he threatened her with... He's a jackass." Gaara thought.
The bell rang half an hour later. Gaara tried to fallow Hinata but it was no use, Sakura and Ino had caught up to her. He also noticed that they where questioning her and she kept shaking her head and saying "No." He also saw Neji in the hall, which Hinata, Sakura and Ino avoided using the same path that Gaara had taken Hinata to the day before to avoid being seen.
They also realized that Gaara was fallowing them, they didn't seem to care very much, or at all for that matter.
"You realize Gaara-sama is fallowing us right?" Sakura whispered to the other two. Ino nodded. "Did you just realize that now?" Hinata asked. They quickened their pace and reached the Science room, which they were stuck inside for to periods. Hinata was put in a group of her, Ino, and to her horror, Gaara and Sasuke.
A smirk appeared on Sasuke's face when he heard that Hinata was being put into his group. And, to make things worse, he had heard that Hinata wasn't allowed near Sabaku. "This makes things much easier" He thought to himself. He then started staring at Hinata, he knew it annoyed her, that's why he did it.
Ino made sure that Hinata sat next to her seeing as there were two empty chairs at the desk, one beside her, and one next to Sasuke. "Hinata-chan you don't want to sit next to Sasuke." She whispered. "I know, I'm not planning to." she whispered back.
They had to try to make a note on Earth Worms because they where going to be dissecting worms in the near future, which really freaked out all the girls except for Hinata, why should she be scared of worms? It's not like they could kill her or anything.
"Quit staring at me." Hinata said after 10 minutes of Sasuke having his eyes glued on her, no way was she going to let him stair at her for the next 50 minutes. "I'm not staring at you." He said. "If your not staring at me, who or what are you staring at?" she asked.
"Crap, what should I say I was staring at.. hmm...I can say that I was staring at the black board! Yeah, that would work" Sasuke thought.
"I was looking at the black board behind you." He said. "Oh, sorry." She said starting to work again. "She actually bought that?" Ino and Gaara thought at the same time. "Man, this girl is gullible...Maybe I could use that to my advantage..." Sasuke thought. A smirk came onto his face again.
Science was now over and they where at lunch.
"Yes! Finally! It's over! I thought it would never end!" Ino shouted. "Lunchtime! Common Sakura-chan, Hinata-chan!" "Shh! Ino-chan! Be quite, Neji-niichan mite see me, I don't want him to see me. Let's wait until he goes in." Hinata said quietly. "Why do you have to wait? Is someone your not supost to be near...umm, near you in the lunchroom?" Sakura asked. Hinata nodded. "We'll wait with you." Ino said. "Thanks." Hinata said.
Neji went inside the lunch room about 5 minutes later. Hinata and the other two waited about 3 minutes after Neji went in.
Hinata opened the doors and banged into someone, Sakura caught her before she fell and pushed her back up. "What's with me banging into people at this school?" Hinata wondered. "Watch where your going." the person said. Hinata then realized who it was. "Sasuke-san! I'm sorry, I keep banging into people."
Sasuke smirked. "It's alright." he said. Hinata never noticed him smirk, but the others did. "Come on Hinata-chan let's go." Sakura said pulling her inside.
As the 3 sat at they're usual table, Temari was already sitting here and asked "What took you 3 so long?" "We had to wait for Neji to go in." Ino said
"I see." Temari said.
"So anyway...Hinata-chan, why was Sasuke smirking at you?" Ino asked
Hinata looked at them confused. "What do you mean?" Hinata asked.
"Didn't you notice?" Sakura asked. Hinata shook her head.
A large sweat drop appeared on the back of the other girls heads.
After lunch was Math and Free Period.
At math Sasuke was staring at her, yet, again!. Hinata ignored it though. They where doing long multiplication. When they left class, both Gaara and Sasuke fallowed them. Temari and Ino also had free period and met up with Hinata and Sakura out side where they greeted each other in the morning.
"I just had Music, it was so terrible!" Ino shouted. "Why was that?" Sakura asked. "Because! They made us sing! It was awful!" she shouted.
"Ah! That means we're going to have to sing too! That is terrible!" Sakura said.
"I told you!" Ino said. "Temari are you alright? You haven't talked much lately, you always have something to talk about." Sakura said, changing the subject.
"I can't think of anything right now." Temari said. "Well...We can always ask questions." Temari said.
Temari, Sakura and Ino all turned to Hinata. "What?" Hinata asked. "We're going to ask you questions." Ino said. "Q-Q-Questions? W-What kind of...Q-Questions?"
"Oh you know..." Sakura said.
"The 'new kid' questions." Ino finished Sakura's sentence.
"Like. Do you like anyone?" Temari asked. Hinata looked down at the ground turning red. "C-Can I have a d-d-different question?" she asked. "You do like someone!" Ino shouted.
Hinata then remembered that Ino wanted to tell them something. "Ino-chan, didn't you want to tell us something this morning?" She asked shyly.
"Oh that's right!" Ino shouted, totally forgetting about asking Hinata her 'question'. "I got a boyfriend!"
"What?" All 3 of the other girls said.
"Who?" Temari asked." Who would?" Temari added in her head.
"Shikamaru-kun!" She said.
"Shikamaru?" All 3 girls said at the same time.
"Yeah he asked me out yesterday after school! Can you believe it?" Ino asked.
"No." All 3 said. "Oh you people are nice." Ino said sarcastically. An evil smirk appeared on Ino's face.
"Oh know..." Temari said. "What?" Hinata asked. "Here comes the mocking..." Sakura answered.
"Well at least I don't like Sasuke-kun!" She shouted at Sakura. "I do not!" Sakura said. Hinata laughed." Or Gaara." Ino said, aiming it at Hinata. She went bright red.
Temari lost her balance. "You like Gaara?" She asked in disbelief. "No." Hinata said. "Ino thinks I do. But I don't."
"Then why did you go red?" Sakura asked. "I go red a lot, leave me alone." Hinata said.
Before anyone could say anything Gaara walked over. Hinata went dark red and looked down at the floor. Ino and Sakura started laughing. "What?" Gaara asked coldly. "Nothing!" Both girls said still laughing. "What's so funny?" Gaara asked his neechan.
"I'm not sure..." Temari said. "So, what do you want Gaara?" Temari asked.
"Kankuro-niichan needs you help, he got himself locked in a classroom again. "How can he get locked in a classroom?" Sakura asked, who had stopped laughing.
Gaara shrugged. "Which classroom?" Temari asked. "The music room." Gaara said in a bored voice. "Fine I'm going." Temari said walking off to help her younger brother.
"Gaara aren't you going to go help your neechan get your niichan out of the class room?" Ino asked, she too had stopped laughing.
"Why would I?" He asked, giving Ino the evil eye. "Because he's your brother." Ino said, Gaara's evil eye had no effect on her.
"S-s-she's right G-Gaara." Hinata said. Gaara then gave her the evil eye.
Unlike Ino, Gaara's evil eye had an effect on her. Actually it wasn't the evil eye at all, it was just him staring at her. "Stop staring at me." Hinata whispered. Gaara quickly looked away. Ino and Sakura started laughing again. Gaara gave both of them an evil eye and it shut them up.
Then Naruto, Shikamaru and Kiba walked over. "Shikamaru-kun!" Ino shouted grabbing onto Shikamaru's arm. Shikamaru groaned. "What's that suppose to mean!" Ino said. "Nothing." Shikamaru said in a dull voice.
"Dude you just had to make her your girl friend!" Kiba said joking. "Be quite Kiba." Shikamaru and Ino said at the same time.
"Why are we still here at school? Why don't we leave?" Gaara asked. "I don't know. Let's leave!" Naruto shouted. "G-G-Gaara your a-actually thinking of l-l-leaving?" Hinata asked. "Yeah we are!" Naruto shouted. "I-I don't me-mean to be ru-rude Naruto...B-b-but I was asking Gaara." "-kun." She added in her head.
"Normally yes, but today we can't." Gaara said. "Why?" Naruto and Kiba said. "We have to help with stuff for Kurenai-sensei." Gaara said.
"Oh right..." Kiba said.
"I forgot about that." Naruto said
"How troublesome..." Shikamaru with Ino still hugging his arm.
"Ha-ha suckers!" Sakura shouted.
"Umm...S-Sakura, you h-have to-to help too..." Hinata said, that shut Sakura up, making everyone else laugh.
"HAHA SAKURA-CHAN YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR FACE HAHAHA!" Naruto shouted. Sakura then started chasing him trying to punch him.
The bell finally rang and told the students they could go home, but Hinata, Naruto, Sakura, Gaara, Shikamaru, Kiba and Sasuke stayed and went to the theater.
