-YukikoNanashi13: This is chapter 6, right? 0.o Just joking.. Well, I have a lot of subscriptions, but I suppose I shouldn't be so excited, I mean, I bet people get millions of them by the first 3 chapters... But this was my first fanfiction, so I'm really happy. ) Also, all SasuHina and Temari fans, you will like this chapter a lot more than any other, or at least so far. Anyway, back to the story.

More and more Genin gathered in the room, eventually she saw all the leaf Genin. Well, it seems even the new Genin haven't fallen for their trap... But still, I can see their minds are definitely paralyzed! She saw Tenten come in with Lee.

"Hinata!" She yelled it from a distance, waving at her.

Hinata waved back shyly, and stood up to walk her way.

"Hinata! It seems you made it before Lee and I did! By the way, I forgot to thank you for getting the Exams to start... It's been a blast!" Hinata wasn't sure whether or not she was sarcastic.

"Ano.. Arigatou..?"

Tenten laughed. "Oh no, in a good way!"

Hinata didn't notice something until now...

"Tenten-san.. What is that on your back?"

"Huh? Oh, this.." She untied it from her back. It was a large scroll, which Hinata guessed, was where all her weapons were held.

"Hai."

"Well, since the last Chunin Exams, I have decided that I would carry all my weapons in a big scroll, than a bunch of small ones. They started to annoy me, plus this big one makes me more intimidating!"

Hinata smiled lightly at her joke. "Hai!"

In the distance she could here Sakura and Ino fighting("Shut up you pig, I got here first, and you know it!"). She went over to them to say hello.

"It doesn't matter whether or not you got here first, you don't have Naruto to ruin everything! If he was here, I would've definitely been here before you!"

"Naruto is just as strong as me, in fact, he's even stronger! If anyone were to ever mess anything up, it'd be me.. And that's very unlikely." She answered her, acting smart.

Hinata was on the side. "Ano...?"

"Shut up Sakura! At least you have no dead weight to carry! And with Chouji, that's some serious dead weight I have to carry!"

"Eto, Sakura-san..?-"

"Nandemo! I got here first Ino! Despite all your excuses, I was here first!"

"Eto.. Ino-san..?-" Hinata was still attempting to get their attention.

"Shizuka ni shite!"

"Nanimo nai desu!"

"..." Hinata gave up and turned to walk away. I'll ask her later..

She could hear their quarreling stop and continued to walk anyway. She could see she was ignored, and her self esteem slowly simmered down back to zero. Why am I always like this? What is wrong with me? Other than everything..? She sighed at her thoughts and looked for another Genin.

Her own team... No... Tenten... She just talked to her, that'd be clingy! Lee... No. She sighed again, in hopelessness.

I need to confide in my mixed feelings.. I thought I would talk to Sakura, but she might listen to me... I could talk to Ino, but she kind of scares me... Who else is there left to talk to..?

"Eto.. Temari-san!"

There she was, the sand village's 'fan girl', Temari.. They never talked, but she had a team with boys she knew, she could be of help..

Temari glanced at Hinata, not much of a smile, more of a surprised face.

"What is it? Am I in your way?"

"Iiee. I-I just wanted to ask you something.."

"Okay, shoot."

"W-Well... You have been on a mission with N-Naruto, correct? To erm, save S-Sasuke.. Correct?"

"Both are correct. What about it?"

"W-Well, doushite?"

"I was sent on a mission, why else?"

"Mm.. So you have no emotional attachment to either of them..?"

"No! Why would I? What're you getting at?"

"Nothing! I just wanted to know.."

"Listen, if it has something to do with either one of them, I'll tell you this. Both are probably still going at it, even if that Sasuke guy got away. If they're going to get him back, they'll get him for sure."

"Are you sure?"

"Well how should I know, I'm taking guesses here! By Naruto's skills, I'm sure.."

"But what if Sasuke has become stronger..?"

"Why are you so worried about that?" She asked impatiently. "What, do you have an emotional attachment to Sasuke?"

She blushed. "Of course not! I just don't want them to get hurt..."

Her voice became quiet. Temari's voice stayed firm.

"Listen kid, if it makes you feel better, Sasuke's a pussy(A.N.:someone asked me to say that).. And Naruto, who knows? All I can say to you at this point is to stop fretting! The Chunin Exams are going on, are you seriously going to let this get in the way?"

"Iiee. I guess not. Well arigatou, for your help."

Hinata walked off. Temari stared at her confused. I helped her...?!

She was back in the corner sitting. There weren't many Genin coming in anymore.

Temari-san is right. I shouldn't let this distract me. It almost made me fail the first part of the Chunin Exams because of it! In fact, I should stop thinking about it. Sasuke is out of my mind! And for good!!! Hm.. This is going to be harder than I thought...

Naruto is out of my mind! Oh, this is too hard! No matter how many times I say it, it won't happen! Why is this hurting me so badly?! Why Sasuke and Naruto-kun have to be so likable? Why am I an easy target? Did I do something to upset the world? Is this karma? Shino-kun and Kiba-kun are happy... Do they have any crushes at all?! And Sakura, she claims she loves Sasuke... Why is it that he isn't so heartbroken? Why hasn't she confided her feelings? Has Naruto's absence replace her sadness for Sasuke, with sadness for Naruto-kun?

Hinata pondered more and more questions in her head to the point where it annoyed her.

"Hey you."

She looked up from the calm but stern voice above her.

"Temari-san..? What is it?" She stood up.

"Don't give me that, you know exactly why I'm here. I realize I probably didn't answer any of your questions very well, right?"

"Well, I guess, but it's fine, really."

"No, it's not. In fact, I am a bit guilty for trying to send you off like that! So I thought I'd try to help you."

"Help me? With what?"

"Your obvious 'emotional attachment'." She put air quotes around her words.

"I don't have an emotional attachment! Not to Sasuke!"

"I realize that.. That's why you assumed that I was talking about him, when I was talking about something else."

"Oh."

Temari sighed. "Of course I was talking about Sasuke, who else?!"

"Well, it's fine. I can handle it."

"No, you can't. It's obvious no one else here can be trusted, so I'll be around. Okay?"

"Hai."

Temari walked off.

A person I can talk to... That is a good feeling.

End of Chapter 6.

I know, bad chapter ending, but whatever. This chapter was pretty short, I have to admit it. Nothing else I can really say, so I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Next one will be coming soon. )
