#4: Her Prince Charming

.

.

.

After the deathly encounter with Uchiha Sasuke, I was thinking if I would punch him now or maybe tomorrow?

I was now walking to our room and since Uchiha is not going to be our classmate, I sighed in relief.

When I was just inches from the door my eyes almost went out of its sockets when I saw who was standing just along the doorway.

Is this my lucky day?

"Oh, Hinata-chan! Good thing you're here already!" Ino-chan suddenly shouted when she noticed me standing like an idiot just inches from the door. That's when my Prince Charming started turning around.

I can even see him shining as he turns to me, like his aura was radiating from the inside. Then he smiled, his eyes getting brighter and he really looked more adorable!

"Hello, I've been looking for you." That's what he said to make my heart start pounding like there's no tomorrow.

Oh my, Kami!

Did he just say that he's been looking for me?!

Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze, my Prince, was looking for me?!

"You've been... Looking for... Me?" I finally said in my low and crushing voice when I finally stopped inches away from him.

"Yeah, you're the one who interviewed me last semester, right?" He smiled after asking me. He remembered?!

"Y-yeah, that was me... And my friend." Naruto looked behind him to Ino and back to me. "Why?" I asked him.

"I actually want to ask you to be my subject for our interview report, if that's okay?"

I stared at him in disbelief. Why me? Why not one of his friends? Did he just realized while he is in a soccer practice that he is in love with me?

"Our professor already told us just yesterday and all I could think about was you. It's a good thing I remembered you." He explained and smiled at me after. "Hinata, right?"

Omona! This feels like heaven! I nodded and smiled at him. C'mon, Hinata, say something!

"So, is that alright with you?" He asked further. "Don't worry, I will give you time. I just wanted to do it earlier so that I wouldn't have a problem afterwards."

"It's okay; I think its better, too. We're glad to help you." I told him.

His face brightened up which made his eyes smile as his lips pursed in a smile again. "Thank you." He uttered then he held my hand and started shaking it.

Wait... What? He held my hand with his both hands!? But of course he had to let go. What he did was just a sign of gratitude.

But of course it was something more for me... Like a hope for a closer relationship between us...

Hey, Hinata! You're daydreaming!

"I hope I could see you here tomorrow. Or can I just get your contact number?" Now he's asking for my number!

Oh, my! End of the world!

I instantly took my phone from my pocket and looked for my number since I didn't memorize it, and immediately gave it to Naruto-kun. "Here."

He smiled before he took a peek at the phone. He got his phone from his pocket and typed my number at his and immediately gave my phone back.

"Thank you, I'll call you later, okay?" He said.

I just smiled at him, my brightest smile of course, like nothing's going to ruin this wonderful day!

My Prince knew my name, talked to me and asked for my number!

And he said he's going to call me later!

"I'm going, then, Hinata-chan." He smiled at me and turned to Ino. "Thank you, Ino." Then turned back to me. "I'll see you around, Hinata." He walked past me and then disappeared in the deserted hallway.

I think Ino-chan and I are too early for school. Actually, you could count how many the students are at this time. It's good thing because I couldn't contain my squeal.

My heart was still beating so fast as I walk outside the room trying to daydream of Naruto-kun going back and confessing his love for me...

But I realized having a great moment with my Prince also have something in return.

I turned around just to meet an irritating, smiling guy with his back on the wall just beside the door.

He looks really hot at this time with that posture.

Wait, what? Erase! He's NOT hot at all!

"Hn." That annoying sound came out from that sinful lips of his as his face was bestowed with an irritated frown.

What now?!


.

Ever since the first time I saw Sasuke Uchiha, I never really had this attraction towards him.

The attraction his fangirls said they feel about him to be specific.

Well, if being irritated counts as an attraction, then whatever.

I just feel... So annoyed every time I see him; most especially when I see him flirting with girls.

Who wouldn't be, anyway?

It's obvious he's using his charms and looks to play with girls!

Fine! I admit he's handsome but I still hate him to bits.

"Hinaaa!" I almost jump out of my seat when someone suddenly appeared behind me and tapped my shoulder with matching half-whispered my name.

The girl laughed when she saw my reaction and sat beside me. "Ten-chan, when are you going to stop doing that?"

She laughed again. "Stop doing what?" She smirked at me.

"Surprising me and giving me heart attack." I said taking a sip at my strawberry-flavored dutchmill.

Ten Ten chuckled and looked around before answering me. "I thought you're used to it. We're best friends, right?" She looked at me with her very small eyes.

Ten-chan is, yeah, my best friend. Their family is a family friend, and she is initially my brother's girlfriend before she became my bestfriend.

"So how's your love life now? You never talk about it when we talk over the phone during summer." She suddenly took concern.

"That's because there's nothing to talk about." I smirked at her. She raised her eyebrow at me.

"How's Naruto and your fantasies over him?" She gave me a big grin after asking me that.

I turned to her and my eyebrows are really curled. "Ten-chan, have you and Neji-nii gone out since school started?"

Ten Ten's expression turned from teasing to excitement. "We have a date after school." She was smiling and glowing as she told me that.

She looks really in love with my brother.

"Congratulations." I sarcastically said.

"Hey, why do you sound like you're not happy for me?" She nudged me.

"Not happy? I am very happy, Ten-chan! Why wouldn't I be happy? You are good for my brother."

"Oh! I know!" She suddenly snapped her fingers like she thought of something. "Don't worry I'll set you up on a date with Neji's friend. He's really handsome and nice; you'll like him for sure." She smiled at me.

"Why don't you just set me up with Naruto-kun? He's also my brother's friend, right?" I asked her with my puppy eyes.

"We're not that close and it's really awkward if I suddenly talk to him and ask him to meet my friend on a date."

"Fine. I'll do my own magic with Naruto-kun, then." I sighed. "You're such a good best friend." I sarcastically blurted.

She looked at me curiously. "Wow, Hinata, it's the first time you actually acted like you're hurt." Then, she chuckled.

"Ya! I am hurt!" I joked. "Anyway, Ten-chan. Naruto-kun asked me to be his subject for his paper."

"Really? Oh, my gosh! Make the most then! Congrats!"

I giggled and she laughed then suddenly the bell rang signaling that it's just 5 minutes before the classes starts.

"Oh, hey. I'll just see you around, okay?" She suddenly blurted.

"Sure. See you, Ten." I bade and she stood up and left the lobby. I also stood up and walked to our room.

This is another day and Uchiha jerk is on our first subject.

Annoying day again, I'm sure!

I sighed and inhaled deeply before entering our classroom.

"Hinata."

I choked on my own saliva when I heard that voice.

Okay... You could all laugh at me now.

But seriously, he really caught me off guard.

"Are you okay?" I looked at the Eternal Player and raised my left brow at him as he tries to pretend he's concerned about me.

"Why are you even here?!" I irritatingly asked.

He smiled at me before answering. "Because I'm in the same class with you."

"Whatever. Go to your own sit. Shoo!" I said shooing him away, then I sat on my usual spot.

Uchiha smirked. "Didn't you miss me?"

My eyes widened, and I turned my attention to him as he stood in front of me.

"I missed you since we didn't see each other last Friday. I was thinking about our lover's quarrel and I thought you're still mad at me so I gave you space." Uchiha said in his 'boyfriend-like-voice' just enough to let our classmates hear everything he just said.

I looked around and saw the different reactions of our classmates.

I wanna kill Sasuke Uchiha right here, right now.

Everyone's staring at us, wanting to hear more!

"W-What?! We didn't have a lo-lover's quarrel, okay?!" I shouted at him.

He suddenly smirked. "So, you're not really mad at me? We're okay now?"

Everyone looks like they're waiting for our little show in here.

Oh, boy! He's so gonna die by my hands!

"There's no 'we,' okay? Will you stop this nonsense already?" I said 'half-angrily' since he's really getting into my nerves.

"Ouch, that hurts, Hinata. You're actually denying that we have a relationship." The lady-killer looked like he's really hurt. What did he just call me?! Argh!

Good acting, boy!

But I'll still kill you later!

"Oh, yeah. I remember... We do have a relationship." I started.

Uchiha smirked. Everyone in the room standby as they wait for what I'm going to say.

"You're the player and I'm your hater." I mightily said and stood up.

Uchiha's face changed to a serious one, like he's been insulted. I smirked triumphantly and walked out of the room.

"See you, honey!" I said as a goodbye and laughed at thought of the player's insulted face.

Let's see how far this can take.

I will take Sasuke Uchiha down and I will get my Prince Charming.
