Why was today like this? What did I do to deserve it? She sobbed.

Hinata walked further into the forest past the trail…

She reached the river; it had been elevated due to the rain, and was a torrent of swirling and spinning water spouts.

She stood close, it was just water, it was just a few feet down, it was the easy way out …

Hinata stepped off the bank-

xXx

It was late afternoon. The sun was going down. Sasuke watched out the hospital window. He hadn't left the chair since they brought her in a few hours ago out of ICU. But he had been in the hospital for days.

The only person to stay by her side, not even family had been there long, only in and out, the only time he wasn't there, they had requested he not be allowed in.

He hadn't obeyed and had every day found a way in too see her bringing a single flower for her vase each new day.

He placed his head into his hands. He blamed himself for everything.

He looked up, watching her from his chair she stirred.

(flash)

Hinata watched the water, hugging her knees.

Why did it have to be like this? She loved him so. He even acted like he loved her back.

Should she jump, it would be so easy, he would never have to choose if she wasn't there …

She closed her eyes and stood to her feet. She would make him choose Keita or her. She closed her shaking hands into fists. He would choose her he loved her and she loved him too with all her heart.

"Hinata ……. Hinata! " Came a scream from the forest, she knew that voice.

"Sasuke!" she said back turned, it was her sasuke he was looking for her. she smiled to herself she would never trouble him again with these petty thoughts if only he chose her.

"Sasuke!" she yelled again turning around quickly, losing her footing she fell from the bank and was almost drowned.

(end flash)

" Why were you out there?" he sobbed to himself as he watched her soft breathing, her chest rise and fall.

" Ill never leave you again." He whipped the tears from his eyes walking to the bed he stroked hair from her eyes. " my angel" he kissed he cheek softly then placed his hand over the area to protect his kiss.

"mhmm" she rubbed her cheek into it, her eyes fluttered open softly. "Sasuke…" she muttered softly.

"Hinata." He looked at her a tear began to form as her eyes flickered open.

"Sasuke!" she yelled sitting up quickly, she was breathing heavy but nonetheless awake.

He wrapped his arms around her "Im here im here!" he let the tears fall as he held her tight. " Im never letting you go again. Hinata im so sorry."

"Sasuke." She was crying too. She lifted his head to a gentle kiss. " Never be sorry."

They shared more kisses and told each other their own side to the story of that day.

He visited her freely every day after that, Hinata allowed it.

They day of her hospital release came and Sasuke and her had planned for ice cream as a treat, that and shopping he promised her all the clothes she could want.

He walked in the door to find Hashi, Neji and a few other Hyuuga members.

"Sasuke." She smiled

She was the only one really smiling but then again most of them never smile.

"What are you doing here?" Hashi asked his voice low.

"Visiting Hinata." He placed the flower in the vase with several others.

"You were banned from seeing her." Hinata looked back and forth from one to the other confused, for she had not been told.

"What are you-?"

"Hinata stay out of it." Neji said calmly walking to her side patting her on the hand.

"But-"

"shh." Neji calmed her.

"Leave and never return."

"This is all your fault." The elders continued their vicious assault of words on poor Sasuke.

"I know." He hung his head low.

"Then leave."

"yes Sir."

"No, don't go!" Hinata yelled out. They all turned to look at her.

She ran from the bed lunging at him. " I Love You, please, stay with me, stay with me here! " she sobbed into his shirt.

He whispered in her ear, then left her to sit alone on the floor. The door closed behind him as he left the others in the room watched in silence.

Hey guys im sorry it took so long but summer is finally here and new chapters should come at the end of every week at the latest, i plan to go into high gear this summer. anyway on my fanfiction profile i always leave notes in the summer telling what's going on and what my plans are also i update if i went out of town for a few days its the best way to check for any deleys instead of asking when the next chapter will be.

i plan to be done with this within maybe 4-5 chapters more at most. Because i have another SasukeXhinata request that i plan to work on it will be spin-off continuation when i finsih this one so ill let you know when i post that, i also have a oneshot for the pairing planned. jeez i have so much to do thank God for a whole summer anyways love you all ...

I also had a few people say the last chapter was a tad confusing ( my bad) at any rate it was Sasuke's P.O.V. before hinata fell in the water if that helped anything... if you guys have any other questions feel free to mail me. thanks. laters.
