Chapter 8 - Wondering Thoughts.
'nobody knows the future, the past is already gone, only today is here'
It had been a few days without them talking very much, the friendly chat now and again that would pass occasionally. No more going round to each others apartments, nor any trips to the roof. It had all stopped, yet they still talked as they did before, just not as close as it was. Hinata knew it was because of that kiss.
Days turned into weeks, before she knew it, 2 months had past with them just talking occasionally everyday, meeting in the hall, talking in the library. But it was distant, he was distant. Hinata had had enough, now she decided if he wasn't interested anymore, neither would she.
He hadn't expected that, but Hinata started to cut the conversations down even further than he had tried to. He began to not see her very often too, many times he thought about just calling their strange little friendship quits and going back to when they didn't know each other. But he couldn't, his feelings just kept getting too much to bare to himself. Their was only one person he could turn to who knew everything about him and had never judged him, always there and would listen...Kakashi.
They usually spoke on the phone, being guys it never lasted very long. Sasuke decided to head across town to his apartment for some space, at least he wouldn't feel tormented being right next door to her and trying to keep conversation to a minimum.
Sasuke had walked a long time, this was becoming a real problem and he didn't know if Kakashi would be interested anyway, it was one of those problems guys hated to talk about, women. He didn't have anyone else to talk to this about, no family, no female friends which, never worked, but never like this.
After a long stroll he reached Kakashi's apartment. He knew he would be in, reading them books as he always did, the man really needed to get out more.
"And you still answered the door with the book?" Seeing him with it in his hand as usual.
"You know me? Come on in." Sasuke headed straight for the chair he always sat in when coming to Kakashi's apartment.
"So, you look like you've got something heavy on your mind? I don't even need to guess, Hinata right?" Kakashi was insightful, he knew this.
"Yes. I think I may have messed her up a bit?" Kakashi took a seat with a drink by his side.
" What? That sounds a little ambiguous?" Not knowing what he fully meant by 'messed up'.
" Well, we had been out that day and she ran into Naruto's girlfriend, Sakura. Well, something happened between the three of them a while back, and she had been down all day after that. So...When we got back...I kissed, like full-on kissed her." Feeling like a teenager talking as if he had never done it before.
"Ooh! sounds interesting, hm." Being slightly sarcastic, while sipping his drink.
" It was only to make her take her mind off of what went on earlier, but it became more than that."
"You mean...you did it?" Raising an eyebrow at Sasuke.
"No!. No! Of course not, well...not that I didn't think-No!" Trying not to give him details of what he was actually thinking of.
" God! Only that? If it had of been sex this would have been more interesting, that's all! she'll come round." brushing it off easily.
" No, it's me who's been keeping away, and now, because I've been doing that; she's keeping away from me now. That's what I cam here for, what should I do, to at least...you know, get back on speaking terms." Feeling like a total idiot.
Kakashi just laughed ironically, "well, I was gonna offer you some of my books to give you tips, but I'll keep them for later, when you get further on in your little on/off buddy relationship with Hinata. Honestly though, just go talk to her, best thing to do with women is talk to them, they like to talk; most of them anyway." Drifting off into thought then, while putting his book down.
" yeah, I suppose your right, it's just getting the nerve to do it when I face her." Feeling like a lost little boy.
" Well, whatever, I've talked with you now about this for near half and hour, and well; I have someone coming over for a very specific reason so you have to go, thank you." Moving him out of the chair and moving him to the door quite impatiently.
" Boy your in a hurry tonight? Right! I'm going! You know in future just tell me you've got plans lazy ass." Walking outside as Kakashi just sarcastically waved him goodbye, while Sasuke passed a very familiar looking women, he couldn't quite think who it was heading to Kakashi at the door. 'I'm sure I've seen her before? I know her, I swear I do?'
After leaving his apartment, Sasuke headed home trying to keep his confidence knowing he had to face Hinata if he wanted to still be friends, but he wished for more all the time.
Upon reaching his apartment floor, now facing Hinata's door. Hinata, just out of the shower, still wet, sat on her chair miserably thinking of Sasuke; not knowing he was outside her door.
He was losing his nerve already, he put his hand on her door with a sort of thump, and then losing his nerve, headed to his own door. Hinata heard the thump even thought it was light and went to look outside her door, she looked around until she saw Sasuke, who looked back around to hearing her door open. He wish he hadn't, her standing there in a towel, it did things to men seeing women slightly dripping with warm water and wrapped with a towel, knowing she was completely naked under it.
"Did you?..." Wondering was it him knocking, or had he simply hit off of it by accident.
"What?" what my eye!
'It's now or never Sasuke...'
"hm, never mind." Slowly starting to turn round, wishing he would just talk to her.
So, Sasuke did. He walked up to her and put his hand on the door as she went to shut it, Her face was priceless.
"Sasuke-" Not knowing what had come over him, he was acting so...abrupt.
"I can't do this anymore...pretending..." His eyes were dark, and she could almost see that crimson coming through, that primal glare he very rarely let come out.
"Pretend, about what?" Clearly not understanding.
"I can't pretend that...I don't want you anymore" Hinata was left quite literally, speechless.
" I've wanted you for a long time now, maybe even longer than I've known you. I'm not talking about being with you in that way, well, not-" Feeling her small fingers place lightly but with enough pressure to stop him from going on to much.
"First. Stop trying to explaing yourself again. Secondly. I have too, I just never thought someone like you would ever want someone like...me." She felt his hand grab her own and placing a kiss on her fingertips, she quivered.
He was so gentle, even thought she knew he was strong, his hands were much larger than her own, and it felt, somehow protective.
" And here was me thinking it would have been the other way round. Look, I know it hasn't been normal for a while and I want it back the way it was, but this time-" Cutting himself off.
Taking a moment to say what he wanted " This time, I want us to be more than just friends." It sounded strange, but Hinata didn't care, here was a guy who was unbelievably handsome telling her he liked her a lot, it was heavenly.
" I hadn't expected that tonight, I actually didn't expect it at all, but, I do to." Coyly looking back up at him, still holding her hand.
She didn't know whether it was the fact he was showing a little more than himself to her or the fact that it was simply and urge, but Hinata chose to move her hand away and move her lips so closely to his that he could feel it's heat escape.
"Hinata..." Feeling himself loose the air in his lungs, then she whispered as her words were breathed on his now very dry lips.
"Sasuke, all I want right now is to kiss you, hopefully the rest will wait until we both can handle it." Her words were unexpected to say the least, but it send a message down to his friend that some day he would be active with someone he had been fantasizing about for some time.
he felt her wet lips caress his dry ones, letting out a low grown that made Hinata get butterflies through her lower stomach. Her tongue ran across his bottom lip, now feeling bolder to explore further. He accepted most enthusiastically as he placed his arm around her petite waist pulling her in to his own body. Now, he could feel her against his own body, her breasts were pressing hard through her towel and on his chest, making him very alert of their close proximity. Yet though they were incredibly close, he was controlling himself quite well, he thought to himself.
" Sasuke?" Pulling away a little to look into his captive burning pits that were his eyes.
"hmm?" Trying to muster enough to at least muffle something.
" I understand if you don't want to wait, it's not like were together together like a coup-" It was his turn to cut her off.
" I know. And believe it or believe it not, I will wait. I want to be with more than anything, but I will be patient, because I want more from this, from you, than just that. Besides we have all the time in the world for it." She was caught, hopelessly caught in his grasp but she didn't want to let go, she wanted to hold onto him more and more, the more he spoke the more she realized how much she wanted just him.
" Besides, their are other ways to have fun without going the whole way?" It was incredibly suggestive but she couldn't help but be curious when he smirked his mouth to one side.
"Oh? You have me interested now, continue." Now feeling very confident in herself around him, knowing he didn't just want to have sex and run, he wanted her.
"It can wait, in time, now you'll have to be patient. First though, their's something I want to show you, something I have been hiding from you." Now she was thinking again, Hiding what?
"Hiding?" Wanting to know now.
"Well, not exactly hiding but, just not showed you." Leaning against the door frame.
"What is it?" Feeling like a child waiting for their birthday present or something.
" Get dressed, I prefer you like this, and come over to my apartment." You would! Waiting for it to drop.
" Just wait here." She hurried to the bathroom, towel dried herself, put her hair in a bun and put a knee length nightgown on. Only slipping on some sandals to cover the soles of her feet.
" ready!" It was a very sexy little nighty Sasuke thought to himself, her arms were bare and the bottom half of her legs. What he noticed was her hair was up, completely off her face, she had an incredibly pretty face when it was completely bare of no make-up. As she walked out he couldn't help but smell the intoxicating scent of fruit she must have showered in, it was simply...edible. As she shut her door, he stared at her neck, all skin soft and touchable, he knew his thoughts wouldn't leave him, and he naughtily stroked the loose hairs at the rim of her hair line down the centre of her neck. It felt incredible, and he wanted to touch further down, in fact he wanted to kiss it, but he refrained at thought in time he would so it was worth the wait; besides touching was a lot of fun too.
As they headed into his apartment, Hinata instantly felt relaxed, she almost forgot what it was like with that deep set red wall that seemed to ooze something she couldn't put her finger on. Just as Sasuke had been a little naughty in tracing his fingers down her neck, she felt a little naughty herself. She grabbed the back of his black shirt, pulling him back a little and hugging him from behind, which just made him feel too good to be real. He put his arms around her that held him tight around his waist, as she leaned her face into his back rubbing her cheek against him. It was tender and very...loving, but Sasuke hadn't felt such affection in many years, not since- then quickly withdrew that thought.
" This feels really good, your soo warm." He loved her soft voice, now muffled into his back.
" It does, too good." He soon thought that his relationship with Hinata was something perhaps, he would need and perhaps, had needed all his life....Someone to love him, as he was becoming to feel for her.
Hinata pulled away to peep over to see Sasuke looking back around at her too.
" Come on, I want to show you it." Taking her hands and leading her to the bedroom, which she felt a little nervous and he could feel her pull back a little.
" It's not what you think! I don't mean that! It's in there, come on." Knowing she should know better after their little heart to heart earlier.
" I know! I ma just nervous at what you have to show me." But as soon as she reached his bedroom and he turned her round to show her a canvas painting on his wall, everything fell away, noise outside, pointless worrying, just this.
It was a painting of Her! looking down to her left a little, shyly, it was so beautiful, it was in every tone of blue she could think of and it simply made her heart stop a beat. Her hair was to one side in the painting and the background was dark blue with very small white dots detailed as stars, it was simply magnificent and she couldn't believe how talented Sasuke was.
"I-I-can't believe- you did this. Sasuke- it's so beautiful." She was heart struck.
Sasuke was pleased but felt very self conscious at showing her it, knowing he had painted her as she had slept but made it to appear she was looking down shyly sitting in a profile manner.
"I'm glad you like it, that's why I kept it in my room, it reminded me of moonlight, I know very cheesy but It does." She didn't think so ,she liked her was poetic in thought and in art, it was pleasing.
Hinata sat on the bottom of his bed, looking at the picture from the light coming from outside his room window. Sasuke stood in front of her, looking down at her, now resembling the same look as the painting.
"Sasuke?" Looking back up to him, but pulling him to squat in front of her.
"yes?" The yes again.
" Kiss me, just kiss me, keep kissing me until we can't breath anymore." He was taken aback, but he wasn't complaining, now thinking how right Kakashi had been to tell him just to talk to a women whether it turned out bad or good. He realized that Kakashi knew how to make a women feel, and obviously his little hint had worked wonders as he leaned in passionately and harder to catch every little bit of her mouth on his own as their tongues began to intertwine in a smoldering battle.
Hinata lay back on to his bed and put her hands into the back of his jet black hair, feeling its course yet smooth locks. He ran his hands at the side of her cheeks catching her exotic eyes in his own. His body was pressed to the side of her own, he loved the feel of her curvy hips brush against his own thighs, sending heat burn in very particular places. When they came up for air he leaned against her forehead, breathing his hot exasperated breathes on her face; making her giggle as it tickled her face. He smiled at her reaction, then realizing she must be quite ticklish as he ran his fingers up her side and into the curve of her waist, which made her slightly jump form the sensation. He found her spot. He pressed a little harder and her reaction made him laugh which made her wriggle beside him and crinkle her nose, which just made her unbelievably adorable.
"STOP!! Agh! Stop! that tickles" rolling over on her side, burying her face in his pillow, which made her nighty ride a little further up her legs; revealing their silky smooth skin, Sasuke was full aware now. His eyes scrolled down and he could just saw the hem of her panties, it made his insides burn like molten lava.
"You have wondering eyes you know?" Watching him glare at her, which made her feel incredibly wanted.
" Sorry, but you shouldn't be so unbelievably sexy." It was so provocative and it was very erotic. Hinata felt so comfortable like this was Sasuke, and knew they would only become closer in time. Then she snuggled into his chest, this time facing him, looking up now and again at his face as he wrapped his arms around her; looking back down at her. It was strange but they didn't speak after that, only looking at each other every now and then before Hinata finally fell asleep in his broad chest. He heard her breathing slow down and he knew she was now asleep, but he didn't let go of her and suddenly he wrapped himself closer to her; placing his chin on her head, eventually himself giving into sleep too.
They didn't wake until morning, but still they slept in the rays of the morning sun wrapped in each others bodies.
( Yeah, probably thinking I was gonna have them sleep with each other, but I don't there like that so I am giving them more real time. perhaps to make it feel like they respected each other enough to know that it would be right in right time. I will have them do it eventually, but I want to enjoy it a bit more. Lots of erotic stuff to come before the big act itself, so I want the characters to enjoy what I have in store before I give them the main stuff.)
