Chapter Four

The midnight haired beauty ran, branches and leaves whipping her face. She knew that he was running after her. She ignored his pleading cries to stop. Her feet skidded to a stop as she changed her area of direction. Tears streaming down both of her cheeks. She closed her eyes tightly, afraid of what she would see. Her feet stumbled and buckled underneath her. She fell down with tears. Her translucent orbs opened, tears still trailing down her cheeks. Her pale hands gripped the grass around her and sobs wracked her body.

"Hinata………." He said her name softly as he approached her carefully. She couldn't stand to even look at him. She was going to say something, but nothing came out. He gently pulled her up, cautiously, and held her in a warm embrace. Her hands gripped his shirt in a fist full. Sobs continued to wrack her body. The normally stoic and cold Uchiha caressed her midnight blue tresses and hissed condolences into her ear. The sobs soon stopped and were replaced by hiccups. This didn't loosen her grip on his shirt. Then she looked back up at him. Her pearly eyes glaring at him.

"W-why d-did y-y-you c-come b-back for m-me?" She stammered out. She couldn't help but glare. Translucent orbs glared up at the deep abyss of his eyes. He ran his fingers through her silky tresses.

"I care about you, Hinata-chan." Sasuke whispered to her. She wanted to shout at him, she wanted to yell, she wanted to beat him until he couldn't feel anything. Her eyes down cast.

"D-don't call m-me th-that." She stammered through hiccups. Her tightened fists started to beat against his chest. His hold on her tightened and she looked back up at him. Her hypnotic eyes caught his dark eyes. She found a new source of warmth in his eyes. She tries to look away, but those eyes……….an indescribable feeling. His hand went up to her temple and traced from there, down her jaw line to her lower lip. He began to lean down. Hinata looked up at him and lowered her head. His lips brushed against her forehead.

"I-I'm s-sorry, S-sasuke." She whispered, "C-can you pl-please t-take me h-home?"

Sasuke nods.

OoO

TenTen, Temari and Neji stood in the living room. Hiashi wasn't there. The bun girl was extremely worried. She was biting on her thumb nail and then she had an outburst.

"That's it! I'm done waiting!" She bursts out storming to the door. She swung it open and grabbed her coat as she stormed out with an umbrella. It was going to rain soon. Her chocolate brown eyes were glazed over with worry. Someone called her name, but she didn't listen. That same person told her to wait. She still didn't wait. She kept walking at a quick pace to where she saw Hinata walk off to.

"I said wait!" An annoyed voice said. TenTen stopped in her tracks and stopped to glare at the person.



"One of my best friends could be missing and you're telling me to wait? Shove it up your (censored)." TenTen said angrily. She huffed and continued to storm in the direction where Hinata had disappeared. Neji ran after her, his long, brown silk hair flowed behind him. Temari was about to run out of the house, but Neji turned to look at her.

"Stay here just in case she comes back." He tells her. Temari walks back in, worry etched out on every feature. He had already lost sight of the girl with buns on her head.

Branches whipped the brown eyed girl's face as she ran through the forest. Droplets of water started to fall onto her face and she looked around. She had to find Hinata, and fast. Then she spots a wisp of midnight blue hair and started to run towards it. Hinata! TenTen thought immediately. She ran towards where she saw the hair and eventually saw a pair of translucent, lavender eyes.

"HINATA-CHAN!!" She cried out with a couple tears slipping down. The eyes turned to face her. She ran towards her and crashed her into a hug. The midnight haired girl hugged her back, a couple tears slipping.

"Never make do that to me again." She whispered, clearly relieved.

"I wont." Hinata promised her best friend, well one of them. After a couple seconds, she noticed Sasuke there. Then she turned back around.

"Neji! Neji! I found her!" She yelled out into the darkness. Then the spot light of a flashlight found them.

"Hinata-sama?!" He called out, anxiously.

"Ye-yes?" She answered weakly. He ran over and, unknowingly, hugged both TenTen and Hinata. He let go and the brown eyed girl looked away from him. She turned towards Sasuke. Her eyes laced with suspicion.

"What were you doing with Hinata-chan?"

"Nothing." He lied.

"We'll talk about it later. Hinata-sama, we have to get you home."

"D-does father know?" He looked surprised at her stutter.

"No. He's not home yet." Suspicion was still around the gaze TenTen held against Sasuke. Then she looked away from him and back at Hinata.

"C'mon, we better get her home. Temari-chan is worried sick." Right when the onyx eyed boy was about to leave, the brown eyed girl stopped him.

"Uchiha, Some people will want to thank you for finding Hinata-chan." TenTen said looking at him with still firmly held suspicion. He groaned on the inside. She swiftly turned around and walked in the lead 

out of the forest. He followed from behind as the Hyuugas walked in the middle. When they got home, Temari rushed and hugged Hinata tightly.

"Thank goodness!"

999! 999! 9999!
