Dotchi: Alrighty then, the Kimono and Sash are finished, now for the Hairpin.
I put some thought into this and with a friend decided that Karin will be the one to get the Hairpin 6.6
Now, to respond to a few reviews because... Well, I want to.
saiyanvegeta: I understand what you are saying, I hate cheaters too. Don't worry about what happens to Naruto, Hinata will take care of it.
ZoeySlaughter: Of course you do Nee-Chan, you know the song, and you're smart like that ;3
Switchlolly007: You're not wrong ;)
crystalblue19: Thank you and I will do my best :3
The next day Hinata was tailoring another Kimono as she sat by the shop window. The neighborhood outside was restless today, it seems another crime happened to some woman named Ino.
But it didn't matter to Hinata, all that mattered was her love Naruto.
Her sister Hanabi was there today to help her handle with the rush, making sashes and handling the money as the surge of people was for some sort of event to be held about the crimes in the past two days.
Hinata, however, blocked her ears to them and spent her time concentrating on her work, fashioning things with many dark colors.
Soon lunch came around and Hinata and Hanabi excused themselves for lunch and closed up the shop for a small time, heading out to eat.
The scissors glinted in the sun as Hinata held them close to her, a polite smile on her face to greet those whom looked at her as her eyes roved over the crowds to find Naruto.
She spotted him in front of the Hairpin shop, looking over a few things before selecting a Silver hair pin. It made her heart leap, was her lover going to give her a gift and apologize for his womanizing ways? Silver was better for her hair than gold, this much Hinata knew.
She watched as he paid for it before going to a girl sitting on the side, she had red spiked hair and red eyes with glasses on and wearing a purple kimono as she sipped on a cup of water.
Wasn't this woman a distant cousin of his? Hinata thought she heard that, after all, she shared the same last surname as Naruto and had the family red hair.
This put a pang in her heart. He loved his distant cousin more than he did her. He was really indiscriminate with whom he decided to share company with.
Hinata turned, feeling her heart hurt. Something had to be done.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
She worked hard that day, and soon she held a silver hairpin in her hands, cradling it gingerly in her long slender fingers. She pulled off a few hairs caught in it from it being worn earlier, before she set to work, setting it to the side
She undressed before pulling on the navy blue kimono that fit her so fine, wrapping her middle in the black obi and tying it beautifully, looking to herself in the mirror.
She looked like a kind of angel as she carefully put the hairpin into her dark blue locks, looking over herself as she smiled almost emptily to herself.
' Aren't I beautiful?' Her mind pleaded to no one, for someone to answer.
She then turned and picked up her scissors, staring into it and seeing her reflection despite it seeming duller than the polished shine it had less than a week ago.
' If you won't come to me, Naruto, then I shall come to you.'
