A Love Triangle: Chapter Eighteen

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

The two woke up the next morning…erm…actually the next afternoon. Sasuke groggily opened his eyes and looked down at the Hyuuga girl in his arms. Then it hit him; he was supposed to take Hinata home the other day.

"Oh kuso…Hinata-chan…Hinata-chan wake up" He shook her harshly. Hinata opened her eyes frowning at him.

"Don't shake me so hard" She frowned.

"Damn it Hinata we both over slept" He yelled as he jumped up from the couch. Hinata's eyes widened as she looked at her watch. It was 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

"My father is going to kill me"

"Her?! He's probably going to have someone murder me for having Hinata sleep over my house" He thought as he started to panic. Hinata looked at him.

"Well I better get going" She stated as she started to walk out the door only to have Sasuke grab her arm.

"I'm coming too" Her eyes widened as he looked at her.

"S-Sasuke-kun…?"

"I told you that I'll be with you…forever" He smiled as he leaned forwards and kissed her. She blushed as the two walked out the house together.

&&&&&&&&&&

The two sat in front of Haishi and Neji who were both glaring at Sasuke while Haishi was glaring at both Sasuke and Hinata.

"Why were you even at the Uchiha's house Hinata-sama?" Haishi asked as he looked at his eldest daughter. "I thought that I told you to stay away from him" Hinata looked at the floor causing Haishi to frown.

"Look at me when I'm talking to you" He said in a stern tone. Hinata snapped her head up looking at her father.

Neji continued looking at Sasuke while frowning. "What were you doing with Hinata-sama anyways?" He glared.

"Nothing, we were watching a movie and then we just happen to fall asleep and when we woke up it was in the afternoon" The Uchiha stated honestly.

Haishi glared at Sasuke. "What makes you want my daughter so much? What do you see in her?" Haishi was very curious as to why Sasuke liked Hinata.

"Because…she is someone who I care for and respect. She is the only person that I can fully trust and…I…I love her" He blurted out as he looked at Haishi with a stern look. Everyone in the room seemed shocked except for Sasuke himself who said it.

Haishi stared intensely at the Uchiha making him nervous but didn't dare show it.

"Hn…Uchiha Sasuke is in love with me daughter. This is very interesting wouldn't you say Neji?" Haishi asked as he closed his eyes. Neji didn't answer afraid he might something that would cause him to get in trouble.

"Well Hinata-sama and Uchiha-san…I will…allow this" Hinata eyes widened as she looked at her father.

"I will allow you to see my daughter" Haishi finished as he opened his eyes to look at Sasuke. Sasuke nodded as he looked at the older man.

"You two are dismissed" He said in a low tone as he watched the two stand up and leave. Neji glared at Sasuke hard as he was leaving.

Sasuke smirked to himself he knew that Neji was looking at him but he didn't turn around to look at him.

&&&&&&&

"So your father approves of me for you" Sasuke said as he looked at Hinata. They were still in the Hyuuga manor but they both were in the gardens.

"Yes…it seems he does" She smiled as she looked at him.

"Che, it wouldn't of matter of he did or didn't" He pulled Hinata into an embrace. "No one's going to stand in the way of you and me. Not Naruto, Sakura, Asano, Gaara, your father nor that over protective cousin of yours will get in the way of us" He smiled at her as he placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

"I don't want to see any of that when I'm around" Sasuke frowned as he turned around.

"Listen Hyuuga I have no idea why you are so pissed at me for dating Hinata but I'll do what I please with her since I recall she's my girlfriend not yours" Sasuke snorted as he glared at Neji.

"I made a promise to someone that I will protect Hinata-sama and that's what I intend to do" Neji stated referring to his promise with his father from when he was younger.

Sasuke said no more but he did scoff and look away from him. Hinata smiled as she looked at her cousin. "Don't worry Neji-niisan Sasuke-kun treats me well, he would never do anything to hurt me…trust in him" Sasuke and Neji looked at her.

Neji turned around with his back facing Sasuke and Hinata. "I am still Hinata-sama's protector…and as her protector I trust you to care good care of her" With that Neji walked away.

Hinata smiled as she watched Neji walk away. "Neji-niisan…" She whispered as she smiled. Sasuke looked at Hinata.

"So what do we have planned for today?"

"Ano…"

"How about we go out to eat" He asked but it came out like a question. She nodded her head.

"Sure…" He smiled as he looked at her. "I'm really lucky to have her…my hime" He thought as he looked at her.

&&&&&&&&

The two were now at a sushi bar eating sushi. Sasuke looked at Hinata from the corner of his eyes. "She doesn't seem to be absentminded today, so that's a good sign. Unless she's covering it all up. What if she is thinking about the spook?" Sasuke stared at her.

Hinata noticed this and looked at him. "What is it Sasuke-kun?" She smiled as she looked at him.

"Ah it's nothing…just thinking that's all" He stated as he looked away from her. She nodded as she continued eating her sushi.

"Hi Sasuke-kun" Sasuke cringed when he heard the voice. "What the hell does she want?" He thought as he slightly turned his head to see Sakura standing there with a smile on her face.

"Sakura…" Is all the Uchiha said as he looked at her. Sakura smiled but then she looked at the Hyuuga girl sitting next to Sasuke as she frowned.

"Hello…Hinata" She put on a fake smile. Sakura wants to let Sasuke go but she can't…it's too hard for her. She loves him too much to ever let go of him.

Hinata just nodded at her not really wanting to say anything to her. She knew even though Sakura would smile at her whenever she sees her…but she knew it was all fake. She knew that Sakura wanted Sasuke for herself and that she didn't want Hinata to be with him.

Sakura even told her once a few weeks ago that she wanted to become friends with her. Hinata slightly frowned as she looked away from Sakura.

Sasuke noticed this as he smirked. He knew Hinata wasn't jealous of Sakura…why would she be anyway? He knew that Hinata just didn't trust Sakura. Sure Sakura was his friend…his close friend although one who sees them together would not think that he is close friends with her but he is. He thinks of her like a best friend just like how he thinks of Naruto like his best friend.

"Is there anything that you wanted?" Sasuke asked as he looked at the pink haired girl. She smiled as she shook her head.

"I just saw you two from afar and decided to come say hi" She smiled.

"Ah…I see" He watched as Sakura took a seat next to him leaving him in the middle between Hinata and Sakura. Sasuke felt the tension in the air as he looked at Hinata; who had a slight pout on her face he then looked at Sakura; who had a frown on her face.

Sasuke looked back at his sushi as he sighed. "This is awkward…" He mumbled causing both Hinata and Sakura to look at him.

"Nani Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked as she looked at him. He shook his head.

"It's nothing Sakura…" He mumbled. He looked at Hinata and gave her a smile. He watched as she started blushing as she looked away from him with a smile on her face.

"You're so cute when you blush like that" He said to her forgetting that Sakura was sitting next to him that quickly.

"Sasuke-kun…" The Hyuuga girl whispered as she looked at him. He leaned forwards and started kissing her not caring how many people were now staring at the couple. He leaned away from her as he smiled but stopped when he heard someone clearing their throat. He turned around to see Sakura with an annoyed look on her face.

"Oh…I forgot that you were here" He stated as he looked at her with his same stoic expression. Sakura frowned as she forced a smile on her face.

"Oh it's okay Sasuke-kun" She smiled. Sasuke looked at her for a few seconds before looking away. He could tell that the smile was a forced one but he didn't say anything about it.

"So we should get going Sasuke-kun" Hinata smiled as she touched his hand. Sakura watched as the couple stood up and then she looked at Sasuke and noticed that he had his hand extended out for Hinata to hold.

She watched as Hinata held Sasuke's hand. She slightly pouted. Sasuke looked at Sakura. "Well Hinata-chan and I were going to spending the day together so if you'll excuse us…" Sasuke said as he walked away while holding Hinata's hand.

"You two…are you happy together?" Sakura mumbled as she looked to the ground. Hinata didn't seem to hear her but Sasuke did and responded to her question.

"Hinata is my life…she is someone that I can come to love" Sakura's eyes widened as she looked at Sasuke as did Hinata. "I can't say that I love Hinata yet but I really do care for her…a lot. I don't plan on ended my relationship with her not now or ever, she is someone that I plan on rebuilding my clan with" Hinata blushed when Sasuke said that and blushing even more when he held Hinata closer towards him.

"R-Rebuild your c-clan with h-her?" Sakura stuttered as she looked at Hinata. Sasuke looked at Hinata and smiled as he looked back at Sakura and smirked.

"Yeah…is there a problem with that?" He asked while looking at her intently. She shook her head but than she made a sad expression.

"It's just that…I-I always hoped that…we…you and I could-"

"Sakura just stop right there I don't want to hear anymore of what you're going to say. I thought you wanted to be friends with Hinata-chan? And you kept glaring and frowning at her. Listen I only think of you as a friend and that's it nothing more…Hinata is my girlfriend and she's the only girl I have interest in" He stated in a clam tone as he looked at Sakura. Sakura looked away from both Sasuke and Hinata as she walked away.

Hinata watched as Sakura walk away. She felt bad for her and was about to approach her but Sasuke stopped her. "Just let her be alone for alone. It's going to take her awhile to let in sink into her head that I don't feel what she feels for me" Sasuke stated as he looked at Sakura from afar.

Hinata nodded as she walked back towards Sasuke. "Ne, Sasuke-kun kissing me in front of everyone like that saying that you forgot Sakura-san was there. Did you really forget?" She asked as she smiled at him.

He smirked as he looked at her. "No not really. Besides that's my way of proclaiming my feelings for you…I wanted to kiss you like that while everyone was watching…I might do again only in front of the whole rookie nine" He smirked as he watched her face turn bright red.

"Sasuke-kun you wouldn't do that" She said as she looked at him.

"Yeah I would…I don't care because it shows that I really care for you" He smiled as he looked at her. Hinata made a blank expression as she blinked three times as she walked towards Sasuke and knocked on his head.

"What are you doing Hinata?" He asked as she gave her an odd look.

"I'm trying to see if this is the real Sasuke-kun. Where is the other stoic mean cold hearted Sasuke-kun that I know?" She teased as she looked at him.

He slightly frowned as she looked at her. "What are you talking about Hinata?" He glared at her. Hinata smiled as she hugged him.

"Ah there is the Sasuke-kun that I know" She smiled as she buried her face in his shirt. He sighed as she rolled his eyes but he held onto her.

"Hinata you're really annoying" He teased as he leaned her away from him so that he could look at her. She smiled as she stood on the tippy toes to kiss him but stopped when she heard Asano and Heijiro's voice.

"OI HINATA-CHAN" Asano yelled as he ran towards the couple. Sasuke frowned as he looked at Asano while Asano returned the glare by sticking up the middle at him which went unnoticed by Hinata.

Sasuke made a shocked facial expression as Asano smirked at him. "What's the matter rooster hair?" He asked still sticking up the middle finger at him but was playing it off by scratching his nose with his middle finger.

"Do you want me to break that finger of yours?" Sasuke glared as he let go of Hinata. Heijiro and Hinata looked at Sasuke.

"Sasuke-kun what are you talking about?" The Hyuuga girl asked as she looked at Sasuke.

"Yeah?! He's just scratching his nose Sasuke" Heijiro stated as he looked at his brother. Sasuke snorted as he looked away from everyone.

"What do you want ass hole…I mean Asano" Sasuke smirked as he looked at Asano.

"Rooster hair…I don't need anything from you. I came because there is something that I need to ask Hinata-chan" He stated.

"Ask me?" Asano nodded.

"Yeah you see…well my brother and I…erm…well the inn that we were staying at…ano we sort of got kicked out"

"What!?" Both Sasuke and Hinata said at the same time.

"What happened?" Hinata asked.

"Well you see Heijiro here-"

"Baka don't you dare blame that crap on me. It's all his fault, Asano and his big mouth got us in trouble. He was picking a fight with the owner's son for no apparent reason saying he just wanted to start a fight. And then he punched the owner in the face for getting in the way of the fight thus causing us to get kick out and now we have no where to stay because of this baka" Heijiro stated as he glared at his brother who was pouting.

"It wasn't my fault the owner got in the way of my fight so I punched him" He said bluntly. Hinata made a blank expression while Sasuke just smirked.

"So…what my brother was trying to ask…is it ano…okay if we stay at the Hyuuga manor?" Hinata eyes widened as did Sasuke's.

"What way in hell are you staying under the same roof as Hinata" Sasuke sneered looking at Asano.

"Baka do you think I'm some type of pervert? I would never do anything perverted to Hinata-chan besides I know she's dating you so you don't have to worry about it Hinata and I discussed that ne Hinata-chan?" He smiled as he looked at her.

Sasuke looked at her as she nodded. "I do still like Hinata but I would never ruin her relationship with you even if I do think you're a baka. Hinata likes you so…I guess if she likes you…so can I" He mumbled the last part as he looked away from everyone. Sasuke just stared at him in shock.

"But don't expect me to be nice to you because I won't rooster hair" He yelled as he glared at Sasuke.

"Che, I don't expect you to act like anything baka" He smirked. Asano smirked to as he looked at the Uchiha. Heijiro looked at Hinata.

"So do you think it'll be alright?"

"Ano…I'm not sure…Father doesn't seem to car to much for Asano-kun" She said as she looked at Asano who scoffed.

"Well how about since he has never meet my brother Heijiro can stay with you and I can stay with rooster hair"

"What? You can't just invite yourself to my place"

"Where else can I stay? Hinata-chan's doesn't like me and I don't like him, if I stayed there I might end up killing the guy or I might get killed for saying something that I shouldn't say to the man" Hinata gasped as she looked at Asano.

"What? It's the truth…I can't stand that old man Hinata and I don't want to cause any trouble in your home" He stated. Which was true Asano had a big mouth on him and wasn't afraid to say something that others would mostly keep to themselves, even Sasuke wasn't like that.

"That is true…Asano-kun can be quite rude at times…not that he notices it" Hinata smiled as she looked at Asano. "Okay I'll see what I can do"

"Now hold on a minute I haven't even agreed to letting this baka stay with me" Sasuke frowned as he looked at Hinata. Heijiro and Hinata stared at Sasuke while Asano just ignored him.

Hinata walked closer towards Sasuke as she placed her finger on his shirt letting it playfully go around in circles on his chest. "Please Sasuke-kun can't Asano-kun stay with you…" She asked in a sweet tone as she looked at him with her big pleading eyes. Asano and Sasuke blushed as they looked at Hinata while Heijiro smirking as he looked at his brother and Sasuke's facial expression.

Sasuke blushed as he looked away from Hinata. "Whatever" Hinata smiled.

"Arigatou Sasuke-kun" She smiled at him. He had a frown on his face.

"You into a softy around Hinata" Asano snickered as he looked at Sasuke. Sasuke glared at the teen.

"So should we leave now?" Heijiro asked as he looked at Hinata. Hinata looked at Sasuke and back to Heijiro.

"Ano Sasuke-kun and I were spending the day together…-"

"It's okay let's just go already" Sasuke mumbled. Hinata smiled.

&&&&&&&

Hinata and Heijiro were in the Hyuuga manor while Sasuke and Asano waited outside for them.

Haishi looked at the eleven year old and back to Hinata. "So how is it that you know this boy Hinata-sama?"

"Ano…he is a dear friend of mines who I met awhile ago" She said not wanted her father to know that he is related to Asano. Haishi stared at the younger boy.

"He looks familiar" Heijiro said nothing but stare at him while Hinata started to get nerves.

"So this young boy has no where to stay? How does Sasuke feel about this boy staying here? Or does he even know" He asked as he narrows his eyes while looking at his daughter.

"Ano Sasuke-kun knows Heijiro-chan here is like a younger brother to both Sasuke-kun and I" He stated as she looked at Heijiro and smiled while Heijiro returned the smiled.

Haishi looked at the boy for the longest until he spoke. "Are you a ninja?"

"Hai…I'm the best ninja from my village" He stated with pride. Haishi smirked as he looked at he boy.

"I will allow it…you will stay in the guess room for the time being" Heijiro nodded.

"That is all" Hinata and Heijiro stood up and walked away.

&&&&&&&

"So what happened? Can he stay?" Asano asked as he looked at Hinata. She smiled as she nodded. Asano sighed in relief as he smiled. Asano then turned towards Sasuke.

"So I guess that makes you and I roommates ne rooster hair?" Asano grinned. Sasuke groaned as he looked at the year older ninja.

Heijiro walked over towards Sasuke and started whispering to him. "Hey my brother I know he can be a real jerk at times…but he is really annoying although he may not show it around others"

Sasuke raised his eyebrows. "What are you talking about? He is already annoying as it is" Heijiro shook his head.

"No you don't get it…he is worst than Naruto. You find out what I'm talking about trust me…I kind of feel sorry that you're going to have to put up with him for awhile" Heijiro walked back towards Hinata.

"What was all that about? Sure Asano seems like a jerk at times but he's worst than Naruto? What did he mean by that?" He thought as he looked at Asano who was glaring at his brother fro something Heijiro had said.

Hinata looked up in the sky and noticed that it was getting darker. She looked at Sasuke. "Ano Sasuke-kun I guess I'll see you tomorrow" He looked at her nodded.

Asano looked at his brother. "Brat you better not cause any trouble"

"ME!? I should be the one telling you that" He yelled at him. The two brothers glared at each other while growling.

"O-Okay now let's just go inside Heijiro-chan" Heijiro nodded as he looked at Hinata.

The Uchiha and Asano watched as Hinata walked into the Hyuuga manor. When they were out of sight the two ninjas glared at each other.

"Come on baka" Sasuke growled as he looked at Sasuke. Asano glared at his. "Aw come on don't treat your roomy like that rooster hair" Asano smirked.

The two walked to the Uchiha's place in silence but what Sasuke didn't know that he's going to be in the ride of his life while Asano is there.
