Sasuke had chased Kakashi on his bike all the way to the shop that morning. Kakashi had closed the door of his car when Sasuke and his motorcycle pulled up next to him; he pulled of his helmet to speak. "COME ON KAKASHI!"

Kakashi shook his head, "No Sasuke I don't want your girlfriend working in the shop."

"She isn't my girlfriend, and it's the only way all that work is going to get done. There is no way I'm going to be able to do all of that and still be able to fix cars."

"I said no! A girl will end up getting hurt in a shop like this. Now stop bothering me and get to work."

"You treat me like I'm a little kid I'm almost twenty-one."

Kakashi stopped at the door of the shop, "Maybe if you acted more like an adult I'd stop treating you like a kid. But since you continue to act like an immature teenager I will treat you as such. Now when this girl comes in you've got to tell her she's fired."

"She is not even getting paid so how am I supposed to fire her."

Kakashi shrugged and reached for the knob and groaned, "You forgot to lock up again didn't you!" He opened the door and looked around confused, "What happened here?"

Sasuke walked into the now almost spotless shop, his tools where all cleaned and placed in order on his work bench, the floor was free of the usual grease spots, you could now see through the windows of the shop. Before Sasuke could answer, Hinata came out from the back hallway holding a basket. Sasuke quickly looked her over from her blue jeans to her white cotton shirt and once again her hair pulled back. Her plain appearance was starting to bother him it was like she was trying not to be noticed.

Hinata gasped when she saw Kakashi and Sasuke standing there the first thing she noticed was Kakashi's mask covering his face and a matching black headband covering one of his eyes, she looked back to Sasuke who today was wearing his wife beater under his black leather jacket and jeans. She looked down at the basket, "Good M-Moring."

Kakashi waved his hand, "Yo! What is in the basket?"

"Oh, I just washed all the dirty rags left around in the washing machine."

Sasuke looked around, "We have a washing machine?"

Kakashi rolled his eye, "Yes we do you might try using it one time. Anyway Hinata did you do all of this?" He asked pointing around the shop.

Hinata nodded and put the basket on the floor, "Yes I forgot what time we started so I just came early and the door was open…."

Kakashi nodded and turned to Sasuke, "Fine she can stay; you said she wasn't your girlfriend right?" Sasuke nodded and Kakashi looked back at Hinata "Good keep it that way."



Kakashi walked towards the hall way Hinata just came out of where his office was and Sasuke asked, "What's that supposed to mean?"

Kakashi did not stop walking, "You know what I mean, you're a bad influence."

Sasuke rolled his eyes, "Thanks a lot." He took off his jacket hanging it on a hook near the door he turned back around to see Hinata standing there looking at him. "What?"

She jumped slightly, "N-Nothing." And she half ran half walked across the room to the other office.

Sasuke shook his head he was used to girls starring at him but when she did there was something else that he saw which was fear. He just shrugged it off and popped the hood of a car and started to get to work. Hinata sat at the desk of papers thinking about Sasuke, she heard of him before it was a small town they lived in. She thought about Sasuke's reputation it wasn't good he was considered the bad boy of the town. She heard people say he was always up to no good traveling around everywhere on his big black motorcycle. He used to steal cars and was thrown into jail a couple of times for doing that when he was younger.

Hinata sighed she wondered if all the other rumors were true, like that he had child, or that he was into drugs. There were so many questions she wished she had the courage to ask him. It was almost two o'clock and Sasuke was almost done fixing the car when his stomach started to growl. He decided to take a break he went over to the kitchen and picked up an apple. He looked in the office and saw Hinata still under a mountain of paper he walked over and leaned against the frame of the door. "You know you get thirty minutes for lunch right?"

Hinata slowly looked up, "N-No…"

"Well you do, there is a table it the back where you can eat." Hinata just nodded; she got up got her lunch from the fridge and grabbed a book from her bag. She walked out to the back and gasped when she saw Sasuke sitting on the picnic table eating his apple, he looked over in her direction. "What's the problem?"

"Nothing..." She sat down on the other side of the table and slowly unwrapped her lunch. She looked at her sandwich she knew she couldn't finish it all. "Um…Sasuke d-do you want half of my s-sandwich."

Sasuke turned his head and shrugged throwing the apple core in a nearby garbage can, taking the sandwich and sitting across from Hinata. He looked at the book on the table, "Macbeth, pretty good book."

"You know it-t?"

"Yeah I've read it a couple of times, what you think just because I'm a repairman I don't know how to read?"

"N-NO!"

"Well I do, I read a lot."



"I'm sorry." She looked down to avoid his eyes.

He shrugged, "I guess it's not all your fault I'm sure you've heard some pretty incorrect things about me from the people in this town." She nodded slowly. "I have a question you probable didn't tell anyone what you were really doing today so what did you tell them?"

Hinata looked back up at him wondering how he knew, "I t-told them I-I was at the library."

"Sounds believable I've got another question why do you stutter?"

"I-I just d-do it w-when I'm nervous."

Sasuke thought for a moment and smirked and leaned across the table bringing his face closer to Hinata. Hinata started to breath faster Sasuke looked her straight in the eyes "Do I make you nervous?" Hinata quickly shook her head and Sasuke pulled back laughing, "Wow you really are afraid of me."

She looked down again wrapping her arms around herself, "Sorry."

"Stop apologizing!" Hinata's head snapped up, she didn't expect him to yell at her. Sasuke sighed, "Sorry it's just really annoying to apologize when you've done nothing wrong. But I'm guessing you are always doing that, apologizing when it's not necessary." Hinata said nothing just looked away from Sasuke he was right. Sasuke sighed he obviously offended her he took a bite into the sandwich, "Your cook makes a good sandwich."

Hinata still wasn't looking at him, "I made it."

"Don't you have servants? Because you're so rich that's why I'm asking."

"My Dad is rich I'm not……I-I just d-don't feel comfortable having p-people do things for me that I c-can do m-myself."

Sasuke raised his eyebrow, "Are you serious?"

"Y-Yes…"

Sasuke took another bite of his sandwich, "You're weird."

Hinata peeked up at him, "I guess so."

"I just thought that rich people love to have other people do what they can easily do themselves. How old are you?"

"S-Seventeen." Sasuke just nodded and kept starring at her as he continued to eat his sandwich. Him starring made Hinata become very red she tried to hide her face behind her hair but he still continued to stare at her. After a couple of minutes they both finished their sandwiches and Sasuke still had not stopped starring at Hinata. "W-Why do you keep looking at me l-like t-that?"



"I am trying to figure you out."

"Have y-you f-figured it out?"

"I can take a pretty good guess. You are a book worm never gets anything lower than and A on anything, you rather just blend in then stand out in any situation because you don't feel like you fit in your own family or with your supposed friends who really don't know who you are. They just hang around with you because of who your family is, and you've lived this way in your entire life and you want to try something new and dangerous and that is why you want the motorcycle. You're doing that just to prove you're not a robot am I right?"

Hinata was a little offended but he was right she lived her life like a robot just doing what she thought everyone else wanted her to do. Sasuke tried to make her smile since she was looking kind of down, "Oh and you're really attracted to me."

"W-what?"

He smiled "Kidding besides you shouldn't like me remember I'm a bad influence." He winked at her as he got up and went back into the shop leaving a very confused and blushing Hinata.

She whispered, "I don't see what's so bad about him."
