Flashbacks...
It's been 3 weeks, 2 days and 8 hours since her... "incedent". She been trying her best to act normal, but it wasn't working. Lady scolded Neji because technicailly, it wasn't a confession. Hes been working hard to find out, but that wasn't working either. So she shut down. Lady also won't let her work, so she's been extremely lazy. Just yesterday she finally cooked. Neji was surprised when she saw her puffy face. He closed his eyes and clenched his fist.
"Lay low, lay low..." He muttered in his head. She glanced at him.
N-Neji... I n-need the money t-to cook with ton-night..." He nodded. He got $70 out the stash, and handed it to her. As she took it, Neji grabbed her wrist. Her eyes widen and she figited. Her eyes watered and she fell backwards- but he clung to her wrist. Why didnt she fight back?
WEAKNESS.
That's what her father said, so that's what's she believed in. She curled in a twisted ball, she sobs swelled all though out the house.
"Hinata... Why didnt you fight back?"
"I-I was a-afraid..." He held back a sneer. He then sighed gently before attempting to pick her up. She then tried to do something. Hinata waved her arm back and forth.
"N-NOO brother! Please dont!" She slowly got up, as if stiff. And for the first time on her life- glared at him. Neji blinked. She threw the money at him and went back upstairs. Hell, she wasn't going ANYWHERE.
In His Head... [Chp.9]
Gaara has spent the last 2 days wondering about who Hinata was. He's been hanging out with Naruto lately to find out who the young female was. All he got was that she had big innocent doe eyes, pale skin, was a Hyuga, and was obsessed with course Naruto, with his dumb ass, couldn't figure it out her hints.
"I wonder what she looks like..."
I See My Host Has His Sights Set On The Young Hyuga...- Shukaku
"No, I am curious of her looks...
Have You Considered A Mate, Son?
"No. I am not in need of one."
But You Are, Simply Unaware.
Gaara scoffs loudly before following Naruto and Sasuke.
