Support

I had been awake rocking back and forth on my bed because I couldn't go back to sleep, every time I did I would either have to pee or vomit. So I was pondering the thought on how Neji found out so quickly that I was pregnant. I hadn't given off too many clues on it. I guess my cousin was that smart and knew me well enough to know when their was something wrong. I would ask him eventually because he would soon get up for his morning workout.

I hurriedly rushed to the bathroom before it escaped my lips.

BBBBLLAAHHH!!!

"That's just disgusting," I heard Neji say from the background. I turned to look to see his upper lip covering his nose.

"Don't worry, Neji, you'll be here to help me through my time of need, right?" i said grabbing my stomach playfully.

"Do I have an option?" he said looking around the bathroom, for an escape to breathe.

"Is this what you've been doing all night?" he looked around the bathroom to see my first... when I didn't make it to the bathroom.

"I thought I cleaned it all up, sorry," I said innocently.

He only looked at me as if I had a disease on my face.

"I was actually trying to figure out how you can read me like a book."

"Oh that's easy you're not hard to read…at all, besides your doctor called to tell me in the first place."

"She called you?" I said horrified, that meant she called my father.

"Yea, she wanted someone to come get but she didn't realized Naruto was still there and she couldn't reach your dad so she called me. She said she left a message on your dad's phone though, but seeing how you're still alive. He hasn't checked it, yet. Besides he is still trying to figure out how to get the company out of a bind, so you should tell him before he actually checks."

"B-But N-Neji he'll be so disappointed,"

"And whose fault is that?" I could he was trying to lighten the blow of making me feel gulity.

He was right all of the blame was my fault. I could have avoided this whole situation by not having sex but nooooo. Now I was paying for it like most teenage girls who got pregnant at a early age but fortunately I still had my boyfriend at my side…hopefully.

-

I arrived at school as normal. Neji tried to persuade me out of it but I still planned to graduate. I had 2 more years excluding this one so I had to work extra hard. Naruto was so supportive of me. The only person Naruto had told was Shikamaru. It wasn't because him and Shikamaru were the closet of friends because they're not. It was because every class I didn't have Naruto; I had Shikamaru and Naruto wanted somebody to always be watching and protect me and I really appreciated it. Shikamaru asked me constantly was I alright and it was really sweet. Shikamaru may have known everything else in the world but he was clueless about girls, especially pregnant ones. I tried to stay as calm and collective as possible, so I didn't become to stress and pass out again. Naruto made sure I ate something today.

I felt really appreciated and cared for because there was always somebody by my side carry my books walking me to class. Others stared in confusion on why they seem so concerned but hopefully nobody questioned because I surely didn't have an answer.

I was lucky because it seemed everyone was clueless. I just was puzzled on one thing should I tell Sasuke. Was it my obligation to let him know that there was a 50% chance this child was his? Not that; he wouldn't find out eventually but there was no way I could tell him to his face. I tried to figure out how I slept with him without being scared but I guess that's what alcohol does to a person, but to me it made me blind and a cheater.

I choked up at the thought and stopped where I stood.

"Hinata, are you alright?" Shikamaru asked as he walked me to my next class.

I only lied nodding my head. I could feel a cramp forming at my side, but I had to fight through it. I didn't know how would live with this lie lying heavy on my heart and mind. I never understood how people cheated on their spouses or boyfriends/girlfriends without any remorse. I only did it once and I couldn't forget it. I thought hard on how I would forgive myself. I always thought I would tell Naruto because he would forgive me and maybe that would make it easier on me on forgiving myself, but I knew if this baby turned out to be Sasuke's; he/she would only be a reminder on this secret that I just couldn't seem to shake. No matter how much Sasuke and I say it never happened it did and there was nothing no one can do or say to change that. And to think in that sin me and Sasuke sleeping together a child might be born.

Shikmaru placed his arm around my waist and placed my arm over his shoulders. I knew this troubled him because of our height differences; he had to bend his knees an unusual amount but I guess he didn't mind. He must have known something was wrong with my body or with my mind because he asked.

"So what's troubling you?" he asked sincerely.

I only looked at him. Going with Shikamaru showed me that he did have a sensitive side and that he wasn't all that lazy either, but like Neji he could read me too and I didn't need him to question any answer I gave him.

I only looked down at the ground. I could feel Shikamaru next to me understanding that I didn't want him to know.

"Well, if you will tell me eventually," he said smiling at me. One of Shikamaru's unknown assets was his smile. He had a beautiful smile.

-

By the time lunch hit rumors had already spread that me and Shikamaru were back together and I really didn't even bother paying attention. My appetite was gone and I was ready to go home and fall asleep, but I had another 3 periods to go to. I could tell the people at my table number one concern was me because they constantly asked if I was alright? Why wouldn't I eat? I truly did appreciate the thoughtfulness but I was ready to kill all of them because they wouldn't let me get 2 minutes of silence.

"Are—"

I quickly shot my head up giving them a death glare with my red tired eyes.

"Two minutes, please," I said aggravated. I guess they understood because they didn't bother me until we had to leave for the next class.

I was happy when the last class came because English with Mr. Kakashi Hatake was so simple.

"English you speak it every day of your life so I don't see why I have to teach it to you. I think you got it down pack."

So it's literally a free period.

I grabbed my bag and went to the bathroom, with Naruto behind me. He waited patiently outside the door checking in if he felt I was taking too long. I was trying to get my mind off of the reality, off that I was pregnant, and that my side was killing me and my breasts were weighing me down. I wished I could just ignore the fact that Naruto's kindheartedness didn't affect my heart. How I wish I could be honest? How I wish I could just turn back the hands of time and ignore the fact that Sasuke Uchiha and I had sex…

-

My eyes fluttered open as I could someone shaking me viciously.

"Hinata, wake up, don't play with me, Hinata…H—Oh thank goodness you're awake."

"W-Where a-are w-we?" I asked confused and blinded by the bright fluorescent light.

"The bathroom. I came in and you were on the floor. Are you alright?"

"Yea," I lied. My head was throbbing. My side was hurting. My stomach was cramping and churning and my body was ready to collapse.

"Hinata," He said helping me up and leading me out the bathroom. The day had ended and the classes were being dismissed. So Naruto and I were noticed coming out of the bathroom. My face only flushed at the embarrassment. Rumors and drama I always seem to be able to stay away from. I didn't need people breathing down my neck especially now.

I inhaled a deep breath of air. I've always been good at hiding my feelings from people who didn't know me but I knew Neji and Shikamaru would be asking me questions; Naruto would see my stress but he would think it's about the baby and even then he would let me tell him when I was ready.

As we walked through the halls, I could tell he wanted to say something.

"Hinata?" he questioned.

I looked up at him.

"W-When…Have you told y-your father?" he said nervously.

My eyes widen in surprise. "N-No," I hadn't told my father because I knew he already had too much on his plate. I knew Naruto asked because he heard about my father's business.

"I think w-we…" I could tell he had thought about it for a while and wasn't sure if it was the right choice on his part or even appropiate for that matter. "W-well…have y-you d-decided t-to k-keep—" I didn't realize how serious this meant to Naruto. He could barely speak.

"I thought about it but…" I stopped I was so busy thinking about my family, and myself, and Sasuke. I didn't even pay attention to how Naruto felt or if he really, truly wanted a baby.

Naruto was a foster child going in and out of homes; so now he would have a true family, but was he ready?

Naruto's past was something he didn't like to talk about…at all. His mother had died giving birth and his father had died in battle in the war. So he was alone from the beginning. Nobody ever really wanted him so he just wondered around until his godfather, Jiraya caught up with him. Jiraya had also been in the war with Naruto's father, so when he came back he took on the responsibilities of finding Naruto and bringing him back home.

After Jiraya's death, Naruto took it pretty hard but his other godfather, Kakashi became his legal guardian.

Naruto hasn't had much support in his life, when I've been so supported I don't even stand on my own, I didn't need to. I've always had someone supporting in something. My father supported me most of my life, but when he lost hope of me taking over the business he supported whatever I chose to do with myself…most of the time.

I looked up at Naruto who still waited for my answer, "I can't do it, even if you wanted to I'm sorry I wouldn't be able to bare—"

"Why would you think that? I would finally have a real family. Why would I want to do that to you--?"

I didn't have an answer. He was right Naruto has never tried to hurt me. He's only shown how much he cared about me. As I noticed Sasuke walk by I couldn't help but gulp. I could feel my sweat drop. All he did was care…

I could feel the guilt eating at my heart and I knew this would keep up if I didn't come clean with somebody. I might just have to go watch the clouds with Shikamaru to distress-ify my mind.

"Hinata, I wanted to tell you that I think we should tell your father…together." I was brought aback by his surge of confidence towards my father, but I didn't know if I was ready to face him, but with Naruto by my side I could face anything.

"S-Sure," I said uncertain.

-

Naruto and I sat on the couch his hand entwined with mine. Neji stood behind us waiting for the water to boiling for the tea as we waited for my father to return home.

When I heard my father's car pull up my grip tightened on Naruto's hand.

"Don't worry. I'll always be with you."

My sweat dropped and my heart started to beat uncontrollably. He was so pure and innocent and I was…

My father opened the door with a black eye. His face went from distressed to even more distress.
