A/N hi! Thanks so much for all the reviews. And of course for reading!
Hinata went straight to her room as soon as they went inside the mansion. She really needed to clear her mind, and was looking in her closet.
"Nee-chan, what happened at the dinner, you suddenly disappeared, and dad and Neji seemed very frustrated" Hanabi asked, looking around the corner of the door. She hadn't noticed anything gone wrong.
"N-Nothing's wrong Hanabi, we just had a little … misunderstanding." Hinata answered.
Hanabi smiled and sat down on Hinata's bed "What are you looking for?"
"Well, uh, I was looking for my dance outfit, I had it on this morning, and I can't seem to find it anywhere"
"It's in my room I think, is it the dark blue body?"
"Yes that's the one, oh I remember, we were doing my hair, thank you"
"Wait, I'll get it for you" and Hanabi jumped up and raced towards her room.
Hinata started folding the clothes she pulled out of the closet and put them back where they belonged.
"Here you are!" Hanabi yelled and she threw the body towards Hinata "So you're going dancing then?" she asked
"Yes, I am and thank you" Hinata replied and she stood up and walked towards her bathroom "Isn't it way past your bedtime?"
Hanabi smiled sweet "Daddy thinks I'm in bed" and she placed her finger on her lips "Shh don't tell"
Hinata smiled "I think I hear someone on the stairs" Hanabi jumped off the bed and raced towards her room. Hinata walked in her bathroom and finally took of her dress and hung it on a hook, she cleaned her face finally washing her dried up tears away. She combed her hair, and grabbed her white bandana and wore it. She put her dark blue outfit on and grabbed her shoes and went downstairs.
The hyuuga mansion had a very big yard, it was Hinata's favourite place especially a little spot surrounded by trees, it went in a perfect circle and within the circle beautiful green grass with lavender grew. She bowed when she reached the middle of the circle, stretched and sat down. She felt that meditating at the beginning of her session made her feel one with nature, and made her feel more relaxed. When she was finished she looked up in the starry sky and started dancing. She could almost feel her problems wash away.
When she finished and ended with a final meditation session, she suddenly heard something in a bush what is that? She walked towards it and saw her little sister fast asleep did she follow me here? Hinata picked her little sister up,I hope father didn't notice. Hinata walked down the path back to the mansion, and heard something else, some heavy breathing and foot movement who can that be Hinata put her (heavy) little sister on the ground and walked towards the noise, she saw a shadow, moving, doing some sort of fighting, Neji-niisan Hinata came closer, and saw her cousin practicing some sort of Kata's
"Hinata-sama?" Neji asked when he heard someone coming closer.
"I-I'm sorry I was j-just going back" she stuttered embarrassed that she disturbed him and that he wasn't wearing his shirt didn't help either.
"Don't worry I was done anyway" he said and pulled his T-shirt over his head,
Hinata tried to pick up her sister "I'll take her, you watch if Hiashi-sama is still awake" Neji said, knowing that Hiashi's reaction wouldn't be too pleasant if his little princess was sleeping outside. "H-hai" Hinata stuttered and walked to the house to see if her father was there. Neji with Hanabi in his arms walked behind her, and luckily Hiashi was in his room already. Neji gave Hanabi to Hinata when they reached her door "Sleep well Hinata-sama"
"Y-you too" Hinata stuttered and she looked at Neji as he walked towards his room at the end of the hall. Hinata walked inside Hanabi's room and put her sister on her bed. When she finished with Hanabi, she went to her own room, and fell asleep.
The next morning:
Hinata woke up and her first thought went to Gaara is Gaara out of prison yet?! She quickly dialled his number, but no one answered I hope he's okay I feel so bad that I haven't been able to do anything for him, and he keeps giving. He helped me with my family, and bought me this necklace and what have I done, I really want to give him something that means a lot to him. What can I do? Hinata kept struggling while she showered, it really bothered her that she couldn't think of anything How come I can't think of anything. Maybe I don't know him that well, he doesn't talk so much when I talk to him I just feel like I can tell him anything I feel so relaxed and he always listens he helps without judging but he never tells me anything. I only know basics about his 'mental issue' and I know that he likes drawing but what more do I know Hinata dressed, she decided to pick something little more daring that usually what would Gaara like … she looked in her closet, and grabbed a pants she had never wore. When did I buy this? She wondered looking at the dark blue skinny jeans. She put them on, they are rather tight she thought when she was looking in the mirror aren't I way too fat for these? But I see girls wearing these pants all the time…it looks great on them, but those girls are really pretty. I'm not that pretty but maybe I should look for a sweater. Hinata looked in her closet again, and grabbed a pink fluffy sweater well that can't be mine, it must be Hanabi's she put the pink sweater aside and looked further not this one, no , no oh this is nice she grabbed a white cashmere sweater and put it on. What's wrong with me, I never take this long to decide what I want to wear, and I never wear things this tight. But I guess since I'm doing this for Gaara. I should find shoes. She looked around why do I have this much clothing I don't know about she wondered as she looked at a pair of red pumps tight clothing I can deal with but wearing pumps and my father will explode. I'll go with my sneakers I can't walk on heels anyways and she grabbed her usual sneaker. And my hair oh no what should I do with my hair! She combed her hair and decided she should just keep her hair loose. She looked at her alarm clock only 07.30! But I thought it would be past ten already, oh I hope I didn't disturb anyone. But at least no one is downstairs yet so I can just eat breakfast and go Hinata quickly took off her sneakers and walked down the stairs as soft as she could. When she reached downstairs she bumped into a maid
"Sorry Hinata-sama, Can I help you?"
"It-it was my fault Lyra-san, is father up yet?"
"No he is still upstairs, do you want some breakfast"
"Oh well I would just like something to go" before father wakes up, I don't want to know what he thinks of this outfit
"I'll tell the kitchen" and she bowed as she walked away.
Hinata sat down on the stairs when she put on the sneakers.
"Here you are" Lyra said as and offered Hinata a package with bread and orange juice. Suddenly they hear someone walking down the stairs, Hinata eyes grew big and she jumped up
"Thank you" Hinata whispered when she grabbed the bag and practically sprinted towards the door, and quickly put on her jacket and grabbed a handbag.
"Hinata" Hiashi said, just before she was able to go outside.
"Yes father" Hinata said, hiding her body.
"Make sure Hanabi doesn't follow you outside next time. She shouldn't be outside in de cold"
Hinata froze, how did he know "Yes father"
"You're dismissed"
Hinata quickly closed the door, before her father could ask her to come closer and start over the outfit.
Hinata was thankful that she didn't wear the pumps she found in her closet. Her sneakers were a lot more comfortable to walk in and she underestimated the time that it took to get to Gaara's apartment. I should ask Inumi-san if he knows if he knows when Gaara is out of prison she was relieved when she arrived at the complex, and she tried knocking on Gaara's door, and her heart sank when no one opened the door. She knocked on Inumi's door, and luckily he did open the door. "Hinata-chan, I didn't expect you so soon I have a little bit of time, before Sasuke-kun arrives"
"Ok thank you, I-I was w-wondering when Gaara is picked up from the prison"
"Ah I thought you would want to know about that. Well I don't know exactly, his father told me that he'd try to pick him up today"
He'd try! "T-thank you, uh, well I was wondering, can I visit Gaara then?"
"Well, I don't think so"
"Oh thank you" Hinata whispered hiding her disappointment
They heard someone behind the door,
"I have to go" Hinata quickly said, and opened the door, and ran away. Sasuke looked a little bit stunned when the door almost slapped him in the face and the young girl ran past him.
Meanwhile in a while different situation.
"What did you say!" Temari yelled at her father.
"Temari, calm down" he yelled back.
"No way, she's right!" Kankuro agreed.
"You made him spend the night in jail! He's your youngest son, you can't treat him like that!" Temari added.
"I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP!" her father yelled again.
"YOU SHUT UP!" she replied.
Her father raised his hand and slapped her in the face, Temari fell down.
"What the hell man!" Kakuro said but before he could finish his sentence he got hit too
"-" he wanted to add, but Temari stopped him.
"Don't question my parenting, if he got himself in jail, he shouldn't make me jump around for him, now get out of my sight"
Temari and Kankuro stood up and walked out of their father's office.
"What an ass" Kankuro mumbled and rubbed his cheek.
"Agreed. Come on, we'll need some ice for that" Temari said and they walked towards the kitchen.
"Nah I'm okay, the old man is getting weaker. We should get Gaara… Do you still have you fake id?" Kankuro asked
"Know what, he is getting old, last time he broke my arm, this time just a black eye. Yeah, my id is in my drawer, I'll go get it" she said, and got up to her room and grabbed her fake id. When she got back, Kankuro was smiling mischievous. "What have you got?" Temari asked.
Kankuro showed the keys "I've got the jag"
"Right on!" the jaguar XK was their father latest pride.
"Let's go" Kankuro said, and jumped in the driver's seat
"Get outta there" Temari said
"What, I can drive"
"Last time you crashed. You've lost the right to drive and since I'm the one who's supposed to be 21 it looks better when I drive" she smiled when she saw that her brother gave in..
"Oh you just want the jag" Kankuro muttered.
"Off course, now get out, before someone sees us" and they drove away.
"To get to the prison you're supposed to go right, the second exit over there" Kankuro told her.
"I know" she said.
"How do you know" he asked, mildly surprised
"How do you know" she replied, less surprised. Kankuro was less subtle when causing trouble.
"We're already here" she said, before her brother could start asking questions.
"How can I help?" there was an agent ready to help out.
"Yeah, well our little brother is locked up in here, and we're supposed to pick him up" Kankuro said.
"What's his name?"
"Sabaku no Gaara"
The agent typed something in her computer "Yeah he was supposed to be picked up yesterday but to one came. We cannot allow him to go back without a guardian. Please wait, I just need to check with another agent before releasing him" she walked away.
"Hello, I'm agent Inuzuka, I take it that Gaara-san is your brother?" a woman with messy brown hair came closer. She assumed because of the age, not based on looks. Although, now that she was looking closely she decided that he did look like his sister somewhat.
"Yes, is there something wrong?" Temari asked suspicious.
"Well, we needed to put him in a isolation cell after he tried to attack his cell mate"
"Oh dear, we can still take him home right?" Temari asked ignoring the bad news.
"Well …" the woman was a little bit disturbed that Temari and Kankuro didn't seem surprised about the news.
"By the way, did you gave him his medicine?" Kankuro asked.
"Medicine?" she asked surprised.
"Oh well that is isn't good… it's supposed to be in his record, well that's no good at all" Temari said.
"We'll take him home right away, before anything happens. " Kankuro quickly said.
"Let me see, you two are Temari and Kankuro right" she said when she looked at the computer again.
"Yes"
"Normally we wouldn't do this, because you two are underage, but since Gaara has a mental disorder and needs medication I guess we should make an exception"
"Good because he gets real crazy without his meds" Kankuro said.
They opened Gaara's cell. And looked at Gaara who was hitting the wall, his fingers were very bloody and at the wall was covered in blood.
"Gaara" Temari said shocked and ran towards her brother.
"Man, are you okay" Kankuro said, not really sure what he should do.
Gaara didn't reply he didn't seem to notice that anyone was in the cell. Temari hugged her brother and took him out of his cell.
"How the hell can you put him in such a freaking dark hole when he's like this!" Temari exploded against the police woman, who looked a little bit uncomfortable too how couldn't we notice that he wasn't well he kept hurting himself for hours, they must be so angry! I would be if someone would do that to my brother, I'd kill them she thought. "Can we do something to help?"
"Yes, we need to have a lot of towels" Kankuro said, thinking that the car wasn't supposed to get bloodstains on it.
Temari and Kankuro walked to the car, and put the towels around Gaara's hands and on the seat, Temari put Gaara in the seat and locked him in the backseat.
"Sit down next to him" Temari told Kankuro who wanted to sit next to her
"But-"
"But what!"
"I don't know what to do!" Kankuro yelled
"You just have to sit, you idiot!" she yelled and sat down in the drivers' seat.
Right, I just, I'm not a girl! I can't handle these things to well, damn she didn't need to yell Kankuro thought.
Suddenly the phone rang, Temari putted it on speaker.
"Yeah" she said
"TEMARI WHERE IS MY JAGUAR!" she heard her father yell, suddenly Gaara's attitude changed, instead of moving back and forth, he froze.
Temari closed her phone, "Guess he noticed" Kankuro said, "Gaara, do you mind if we stay with you a couple of days" he added, but Gaara didn't reply.
"Let's say that means yes" Temari said, and upped their speed.
"Okay housing for the nuts" Kankuro said, when Temari stopped.
"We need someone to drive the car back home, before dad calls the police" Temari said,
"Do ya think we can bribe someone?"
"I think we need to call one of the housemaids to pick it up for now let's get to his appartment"
They opened the door to number 17.
"Gaara!" Hinata jumped of the couch and ran towards the tree siblings.
"What happened?" Hinata asked when she saw that Gaara was looking like a ghost, his hands were bleeding and he was shaking.
Temari started explaining, while she was in the kitchen making some tea, Hinata quickly grabbed the first aid kit.
"What should I do?" Kankuro asked.
"Get Inumi-san, he'll know what to do. He's in the office down the hall to the left" Hinata said, while she was cleaning Gaara's fingers.
Ah well it's better than cooking or nursing him Kankuro thought when he left the girls.
