Aishiteru, Hinata-chan

Chapter 10

~*~*~*~

It's been 36 hours. One and a half days. One and a half days since Hinata and my team left. One and a half days since that bitch poisoned me. I've been stuck in this damn hospital since then. They won't even let me stand up in this place!

I sighed and looked around. No one else was here. I couldn't sense any chakra outside the door. I flung the covers off. To hell with stayin' in bed all day! I stood and stretched. Bein' in bed for a long time does that to you. I felt a tingle in the back of my head but chose to ignore it.

The hallway was quiet when I slipped outside the door. I could hear people walking and talking, but saw no one at all. Creeping down the hall, I looked back and forth before proceeding. If Tsunade saw me up… I shuddered. I don't even want to think about that.

My senses were sharp although I was strangely calm. My mind felt a bit foggy, but I payed it no mind. As I continued my walk, I froze.

A voice stopped me. A strong, familiar, feminine voice stopped me. And it was angry.

"Nani?!" Tsunade asked loudly. I peered around the corner as indiscreetly as I could. When I ws sure she couldn't see me, I spotted an odd sight.

She was talking to Kakashi-sensei.

What was he doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be with Hinata and the rest of the team? I listened intently as he spoke.

"Tsunade-sama, we have confirmed that Hinata is missing and have Kiba and Akamaru tracking her. I was sent back to inform you."

"Where are they now?" She asked, vice as tense and concerned as her expression.

"I believe they are currently headed toward that village in the mountains. Damaiyo City if I'm not mistaken."

Tsunade nodded. "Before you got back to the original, I'd like you to carry some information with you."

I blinked. 'So he's a shadow clone that was sent back,' I thought.

The copy nodded. "Hai, Tsunade-sama?"

"We have been conducting research and have discovered that the poison spreads faster with movement of the body. It also is more effective on a blade than being drunk or injected. Must have been designed by swordsmen." She shrugged. "When they find Hinata, let her know that. I have a feeling that she will come across it soon.

My mind went black, my body froze. The poison spreads with movement. How in the hell could I have missed that?! Almost all poisons do that! Baka, baka, baka!

With small, bated steps, I crept back to my room slowly. After opening and slipping through the door without a sound, I faced the door and closed it. I let out a breath of relief, turned around, and jumped back, smashing into the door. Oh My Kami!

Tsunade was standing next to my bed.
"Ano…" I started, trying to get my story straight. "W-well, you s-see Tsu-"

"Save it, Baka," she commanded. Her voice was stern as was her face. But her eyes were filled with worry and… were those tears? "Sit. Now."

Without any kind of hesitation, I flung the covers back and squirmed back into the bed. "Look, Tsuna-"

Before I could finish, she grabbed me in a fierce hug. I opened my mouth, but quickly closed it when I felt something wet dripping on my shoulder. My expression softened as
I returned the hug.

"Damn it, Naruto! Don't care me like that," he whispered in my ear.

"Don't worry, I won't… Okaa-san…"

She gasped, hugging me tighter. I held her while she sobbed into my shoulder.

'I promise, Okaa-san. I won't scare you or anyone else I love ever again. I promise with the rest of my life that I have left.'
