Chapter 5: Which Room?
Hinata's POV
"Why don't you go upstairs, and look at both my, and Itachi's room?" Kabuto said. Hinata could sense that Kabuto had to talk to Itachi about something, so she left.
As she walked down the hall, she wondered if her family even missed her. She knew her father wouldn't, but what about Neji? A pang of guilt hit her heart. She knew, even as she had ran, that it was a bad idea to run away from home. But now, there was nothing she could do. She was too afraid to run away, and even if she did, where would she go? Hinata sighed. She put the problem out of her mind, and opened the door to Itachi's room.
The room, if you could call it that, was horrifying. It wasn't neat, and it wasn't messy, but it looked like a torture chamber. The walls were black, and the rug was so red, it looked like someone had bled to death on it. Itachi's bed had long, thin, grey drapes. The sheets were red, and the pillows black. The walls were crammed with pictures of a man and a boy. The man had long hair, and pale grey skin, and the longest tongue ever imagined. Hinata took a closer look at the boy. On closer inspection, she found out that the boy was actually Sasuke.
As she turned to leave, Hinata ran, slap-bang into Itachi. He was grinning at her. "So, do you like my room?" Hinata didn't know what to say. If she told the truth, and about how she was scarred for life, Itachi might be offended. But if she lied, she would be going against her morals.
As Hinata pondered what to say, she realized that she was no longer on the ground. She blinked, and found that Itachi was carrying her over to his closet.
'Dear God, is he going to rape me?' she thought frantically. Just as she was about to scream, Itachi sad, "I'm going to show you all my cool new clothes." Hinata exhaled. Looking at clothes didn't seem too bad. She was wrong.
Itachi flung open the closet doors, and stepped back. Hinata's jaw dropped. Inside was every pink clothing item imaginable, some of them designer clothes! There were pink shirts, pants, jackets, socks, shoes, and bathrobes. There was even a pink dress or two. Hinata fervently hoped that Itachi had a girlfriend who had left dresses over his house. But she noticed that there was only one thing that wasn't pink. It was a sort of dress-like robe. It was black with blood red flowers on it. But still, it was way outnumbered by the pink.
Itachi looked at her, pride beaming in his eyes. "Ya like it? I do to. I think that pink really bring out the color of my eyes." Hinata finally stopped staring long enough to ask, "Itachi-san, why are there pink dresses in your closet?"
Itachi stopped. He looked embarrassed. "Well, umm…because…OH! LOOK! A mirror!" he exclaimed. Itachi then ran over to the mirror, and began vainly looking at himself, and complimenting his, 'figure'.
As Hinata left, she could have sworn he said, "DAMN! I am oh so very sexy. OH YEAH!" Giggling, Hinata ran down the hall, to look for Kabuto's room.
--------------------------------------------A few moments later-------------------------------------
Hinata walked down the hall, until she found a door that said, 'Kabuto's Room'. She opened the door, and walked inside.
The room was a beautiful aquamarine, with a French window looking out into the backyard. The bed had dark blue sheets, and pillows of sky-blue. The carpet was the same color. Hinata walked further into the room, and sat on the window seat. She looked down, and saw a small garden, with roses and lilies, and other flowers. But most had died. Hinata had already guessed that Kabuto and Itachi didn't have time to do much.
Walking out of the room, she met Kabuto. "K-Kabuto-san?"
"Hmmn?"
"C-can I s-stay i-in y-y-your r-room?"
"Sure." Kabuto replied. "I'll get the blow up mattress."
"Thank y-you. Oh! Kabuto-san, c-can I t-tend t-to the g-garden?" Hinata asked shyly.
"Of course you can!" Kabuto said happily. Then he went down the stairs to get the mattress.
-------------------------------------------------Later that night--------------------------------------
Hinata lay down on the mattress. It was warm and soft. Amazingly, Hinata was feeling very comfortable around her captors. She felt that, once again, she was part of a family. Kabuto was very kind, and caring, like a father, or closer. And even though he was kind of creepy, and out of it, Itachi was very motherly. Hinata felt that nothing could tear her new friendships.
Slumber slowly over came the small Hyuuga. And as she drifted off into a peaceful sleep, the last thing that Hinata thought was how much she would like it in her new 'home'.
But alas, peace doesn't always last in dreams.
