OK well here's chapter two of

A Demon And An Angel.

(Hinata's view)

There I stood quietly at father's side trying to understand what was to become of me,

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him enter father's study.

Everything about him was perfect his face, his body, everything.

It was like I was in the presence of an angel.

Itachi san I would like you to meet my daughter Hinata.

Father gestured at me.

The man knelt and kissed my hand,

Before I realized it, I felt myself blush.

That was the first time I had ever met his eyes.

Something drew me in; I could not find the strength to look away.

But he broke the gaze first.

As I promised your father, Hinata Chan will be your betrothed,

I gazed up at father in alarm.

Father only nodded.

I turned back to Itachi.

Shyly I met his eyes again.

I blushed when he winked.

I couldn't help but thank father for sending me this angel.

Though secretly I knew he meant for Itachi to destroy me,

But I knew Itachi wouldn't for I felt genuinely safe around him.

(Itachi's view)

As I kissed Hinata's hand I felt my heartbeat quicken.

When I met her eyes my heart stopped.

Never before had I believed in love at first sight.

But Hinata was not like all the other girls.

She was as beautiful as an angel.

She had chased away all the demons inside of me.

She took away all the pain that my first love had left.

The wound no longer seemed to sting.

From this I could tell she was the girl that I wanted.

The only one for me.

I hated how her father treated her it had been hard for me not to hurt the fool when I saw him glare in disgust at Hinata.

I nodded to Hinata and took her hand.

Hiashi yelled as we walked away from her misery.

Don't let her come back! I don't want to see her around her again!

I growled when I saw her cower.

Damn fool I muttered as I helped her in to my 1965 Shelby GT 350.

She murmured her thanks softly.

I kissed the corner of her lips.

You'll never have to deal with the pain and misery again, Hinata I'm taking you to my home in the country.

She started to tear up.

She nodded fiercely thank you Itachi…

I nodded as I walked around the car and got in to the drivers seat.

I promised myself her pain would end that day as we rounded the corner out of the driveway with her past vastly disappear in the rear view mirrors.

That was the day everything changed for the better.

And it changed for both of us.

(Hinata's view)

Later that night…………

I whimpered as I peeled off my kimono the wounds from fathers whip started to bleed immensely.

Before I could slide the nightgown over me Itachi came in.

He looked at me.

It was your father wasn't it?
He used to beat you?

I didn't say anything.

Itachi grabbed gauze and medical tape from the bathroom cabinet,

He gently bandaged them.

He kissed my forehead as I started to cry.

The pain was too much I couldn't handle it anymore.

I wanted it to end.

But I knew it had only just begun.

For me and for him.

I fell asleep in his arms.

But I knew I was safe.

For he was like angel to me.

But I was just a demon I didn't deserve him.

He was like perfection and I was but a worthless weakling like father had always said to me.

what was even worse is that i believe father.

End of chapter two.
