I know I haven't posted in a while but I was really stuck on how to proceed with this. Anyway I wanted to try something different. I haven't really seen many Hinata X Hidan fanfiction so I'm giving it a try.
Chapter 2:
"Maybe I could pretend to have a cold." Hinata thought, pressing her face deeper into the pillow. The 16 year old heavily sighed, "urgh I need to pass my exams or else Dad will be mad aga-" A single tear streamed down her pale cheep, as the girl reminisced. "No...I-I gotta stay positive." She mumbled, sliding out of bed to confront the mess slumped in the cupboard mirror.
Her hair was all over the place and dark imprints left their mark below Hinata's hazy eyes. After a quick shower and a rushed breakfast, she set off for school. Anxiety and dread filled her heavy chest as she approached the concrete structure. As predicted, there were both whispers and judgmental glares. At least that's how it seemed at first. Looks turned sympathetic and words began to dissolve. Most people stared at the teen as if she was some wounded animal.
However, two emerald orbs objected to this. They burned with furious resentment and pure hatred. "You bitch!" Screeched Sakura, stomping towards Hinata. "What the hell did you do to my boyfriend!?" Startled the timid girl stuttered, "I-I don't know wa what...you mean..." " Naruto dumped me for being "too selfless and cruel". Just what crap did you feed him?" This was even worse than before. Hinata's throat had tightened, meaning producing words would become impossible. Her eyes darted hoping to find the answer she lacked. "What? You gonna cry or someth-"
"HEY!" Boomed a approaching voice. "Leave her alone." Now it was Sakura lost for words. Hidan towered the pinkette. "W-why are you protecting...that looser?" "Because it's stupid to harass someone who can't even defend themselves over a problem that's completely your own fault. It's not her problem some kid realised what a hypocritical bitch you are." "You're making a huge mistake my parents will-" "No. I'm not the one fucking up. Take a look around you."
The entire school was staring at the them. After no longer than a second, the bully darted for the doors of the large building. "This isn't over! You hear me- ow!" She cried running into the glass door then finally limped inside, flushed with embarrassment.
The rest of the day was ten times better than the previous. Neither one of the two girls had dare make eye contact with Hinata.
Sure double trigonometry was more boring than watching paint dry but she couldn't help but feel exited for her first day of work. It had been a while since she had felt so exited. Thankfully the hours slipped by and was now a distant memory. Before Hinata knew it, she was already standing outside those glass doors dressed in a deep blue uniform. It consisted of a button-up t-shirt and thigh length skirt and black tights accompanied her purple trainers. "This is it." She thought bubbling with anticipation.
A familiar voice greeted her, "Welcome to Bloc~ Hinata? Hey." The teenager stood bewildered, staring at the boy behind the counter. "Hidan...w-what are you doing here?" "I work here. Do you wanna rent something?" It took a moment for the words to properly digest. Her heart skipped a beat then began to increase for a reason Unknown to the girl. Why did this news make her feel so...so- "I can't even think. What's the problem with this. I'm fine with it. I'm just going to be working with him. Nothing's wrong with that. Wait why would it be wrong. Ah I can't think straight I'm going to burst I just know it I-" "Hey what's wrong?" Hidan questioned, quickly sliding over the table and pacing towards the flustered girl.
"I-I'm also I" "Hey calm down. Just take deep breaths. In and out...in..." Hinata in-hailed, "and out...in..ok think about what you're going to say. Try keep it short. What did you want to tell me?" The advise actually helped her a lot. Now that she wasn't as flustered, Hinata could finally procure a sentence.
"I'm...I'm also going to be working here." Hidan placed a hand on her shoulder. He congratulated her with a sincere smile, "see that wasn't so hard now was it?" A feint smile also found its way onto her fragile face. "Now that you mention it, the old man did say I'd have someone starting soon." "The...old man?" She asked. "Yea. That's what I call the boss. He's called Madara but I can't be asked to say the whole thing." Hinata gave a slight hum as if to say she understood.
The two returned to the desk. An uncomfortable silence lingered for what seemed like eternity. Surprisingly, it was Hinata to speak up first, "Jacket!" "What?" "I'm so sorry. I forgot your jacket. I uh didn't think I'd see you here and I-" Hidan cut her off, "it's ok, really. You can have it." "What! I couldn't do that." "Listen it's just a jacket. Besides...it kinda suits you." He grinned. Hinatas cheeks flushed as the beating in her chest once again grew. "Thanks."
"Don't mention it...hey can I ask you something?" "W-what is it?" Her mind raced with possibilities, one in particular made her blush harder. "Stop thinking that. We've only just met and we hardly know each other." She thought, shaking her head. "Why do you wanna work at a crappy place like this? Out of all the jobs to choose." He trailed off. "Well this place...it reminds me of my family. Back when we were all together we'd use to rent movies out every Saturday and have one of our movie nights...Ah! Sorry, you don't want to hear me ramble on. You probably think it's pretty dumb." "Not at all. It's actually pretty cute." "How d-dare you." Immediately she backed away in shame and opened her mouth to apologise for the umpteenth time but Hidan beat her too it.
"Woaw..." Hinata raised a brow while waiting for Hidan to continue. "So you do have some sass."
"Wha- I didn't think! I'm sorry. Please forgive me." She bowed and scrunched her face up, fearing his reaction. "No don't be. How come you can say that to me but...not that little rich bitch Haruno." She rubbed her arm, while averting her gaze, "I don't know...I guess you're just...different." "Oh really. Well different or not I'm going to introduce you to some of my friends. We're going to make you the coolest kid in school. That pink haired freak will be begging you for forgiveness in no time." There was a moment where everything stopped. And then they both burst out laughing.
"Get back to work!" Yelled a deep voice from the back of the store. They couldn't help but snicker even if it did cost their jobs, they were having a blast and it wasn't going to stop there.
Any suggestions for future chapters would be appreciated along with feedback. It's important that I understand what I need to add or change with this story. Even if it is criticism it would really help. Thanks for reading.
