Your Hugs

The raven-haired boy walked on the streets of Konoha. It was a boring day. He hadn't seen Hinata yet and it was passed noon.

I bet Hiashi is making Hinata train all day so I can't go to her because she is too busy trainin-, Sasuke thoughts were soon cut off short after he bumped into someone. He staggered a bit and then regained his posture. Sasuke looked up to see who he bumped into, hoping it was Hinata, but it turned out to be Tenten.

"Why do you always bump into people Sasuke? How are you going to get Hinata-chan if you are going to be rough? I bet when you marry her, I mean, if you marry her that you are going to have sex everyday to revive the Uchiha clan, your pleasure, or to release your angry." Tenten said.

Sasuke twitched a bit. What the hell did she say?

"I mean, come on Sasuke. Be more romantic."

"Quiet. I didn't see you there. Also you shouldn't say that to people. Do you want me to say; I bet your stupid boyfriend, I mean, if he is your boyfriend uses his byakugan to see what is under your clothes. Would you?" Sasuke asked.

Tenten blushed and glared at the Uchiha. She folded her arms and her right foot started tapping on the ground.

"What are you talking about? Neji-kun has never done that."

"What are you talking about Tenten? Neji always does that," Lee interrupted.

"What the hell Lee! Go away!" Tenten shouted and threw kunais at him while Lee ran. The brunette turned to Sasuke and glared.

"… So what are you saying about Neji?" Sasuke asked.

Tenten blushed madly, but then replied, "Nothing, but I could tell that you were thinking about Hinata during the time before I bumped into you."

"What?"

"Besides, I know where Hinata-chan is."

"Where?"

"…. First, how was your date with Hinata-chan yesterday?"

"What? How did you know?"

"I have my sources," Tenten said as she started twirling a kunai around her fingertips.

"Good, that is it."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"Did you two to do anything fun?"

"Yeah."

"Did the two of you have any lunch?"

"Yeah."

"Did she blush?"

"Yeah"

"Did Hinata-chan kiss you?"

"No."

"Ugh! I thought you were going to fall for that! Fine. Well, that was all the information I needed about the date. Hinata-chan is at Ichiraku Ramen with Naruto and Kiba. I saw them when I passed by about five minutes ago."

Sasuke passed Tenten and headed for the ramen place. What he didn't like about it was that Kiba and Naruto were there.

Tenten signed and looked up to see Kakashi and Kurenai on a tree.

"You guys really need to have better hiding places…..And a better bag. One of your notes fell," she said as she took out the notes.

The two jounins jumped down and grabbed the notes out of her hands.

"Tenten, when did you get this?" Kurenai asked her.

"Heh, heh….. Well….. It kind of slipped out of your bag. I mean, look at it! It is full of notes you two wrote down! What are in those notes anyways?"

"Nothing. Is top secret and it is a delivery for the Hokage," Kakashi said as he put the notes inside the bag.

"Well, all I know from one of those notes is that it had details about Sasuke's and Hinata-chan's date yesterday."

"…Was that your sources?"

Sasuke hid in a bush and watched Hinata and Kiba laugh at Naruto's lame jokes and acts.

Baka, the Uchiha thought.

He went closer to Ichiraku Ramen and heard the conversation.

"So, what happen next?" Kiba asked.

"Well, she started to beat me up and then clawed my skin," Naruto said with a chuckle at the end.

"A-are yo-you o-okay Na-Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked.

"Heh, heh! Of course Hinata-chan! Why wouldn't I be? If I am going to be Hokage, I have to face pain! Even from women!"

"If you feel pain from women, then you are weak. I mean, come on! It is Sakura! But she does kicks ass if it is you," Kiba said.

"Kiss ass? Sakura-chan kisses my ass?" Naruto asked.

"Kicks ass you dumbass," Kiba said.

"Ki-Kiba-kun!" Hinata said, "So-sorry Na-Naruto-kun fo-for Ki-Kiba-kun's be-behavior," Hinata added as she bowed down.

"Heh! No problem! I prefer Hinata's apology instead of Kiba's, who really didn't say sorry!"

"Well, it's your fault for being so dumb. I am really going to be disappointed for having an idiot as Hokage," Kiba said as he ate his ramen.

"Well I don't call you dumb!"

"Because I am not."

"Smartass!"

"Dumbass!"

"Dog boy!"

"Ramen boy!"

"Idiot!"

"Mentally retarded!"

"I bet your balls are tiny!"

"I bet you have a vagina because you have no penis!"

"What?"

"That's why you made that sexy jutsu!"

"I am sexy?"

"Na-Naruto-kun and Ki-Kiba-kun!" Hinata shouted. Both of them paused for a moment and turned their heads to see the shy Hyuga standing up with a blush on her face.

"It is his fault! He started everything!" Both of them said while pointing at each other.

"I-I wi-will le-leave yo-you t-two al-alone t-to s-solve yo-your pro-problem," Hinata said as she paid for her ramen and left. Right before she got out, she accidentally bumped into Sasuke, who was about to come in.

There was a loud thump on the ground and Naruto and Kiba turned around. Sasuke was on top of Hinata while she was knocked out.

"Sasuke-teme! What the hell are you doing to Hinata?" Naruto shouted.

"Sasuke! Stop molesting her!" Kiba shouted.

"I wasn't," Sasuke calmly said. The Uchiha quickly got up and picked up Hinata. He puts her on his left shoulder and walks away while ignoring complains from the two.

"Hey! Where are you going teme?"

"Hey! Come back here with Hinata!"

"Come on Kiba! Let's get Hinata!" Naruto said while he jumped off his sit.

Before Kiba and Naruto were about to leave, Ayame called fir the two,

"You have a bill to pay."

The two turns their heads and stare at each other.

"Did you have any money left Naruto?" Kiba asked.

"I kind-of spent it for ramen yesterday since Sakura-chan ruin my lunch."

"Idiot."

"Guy who invited me to come along with him, but didn't have any money to pay for his bill," Naruto said.

"Actually, you invited Hinata and me."

Hinata slowly opens her eyes and sees someone with spiky hair next to her. She stretches and turns her head to see her environment.

This room seems to be clean and comfortable.

The room was pretty plain, but simple. It had tan walls and the floor was white. She looked at the bed and saw a very familiar insignia. It was the Uchiha fan.

Wait… This isn't my room! Whose room I am i-, Hinata's thoughts were cut short when she saw Sasuke next to his bed.

"Sa-Sasuke-san!" Hinata said. She covered her mouth and blushed. Why am I in Sasuke-san room!

"I accidentally knocked you out when you left the dobe and Kiba."

"Huh? W-what a-are y-you ta-talking a-about?"

"When you were about to leave and I was about to enter, we accidentally bumped into each other pretty hard," Sasuke replied

"O-oh… B-but w-why a-am I-I he-here? U-usually s-someone e-else t-take ca-care o-of m-me."

"What is wrong with me taking care of you?"

"U-um…. I-it's n-not li-like y-you t-to ta-take c-care o-of so-someone."

"Is that the reason why?"

"U-um…..so-sorry Sa-Sasuke-san, b-but I-I d-do a-appreciate y-your h-help. B-but t-thank y-you."

"Hn."

Sasuke turned his head to see Hinata and almost blushed.

Hinata was smiling at him and what he didn't expect from the shy, indigo girl was a hug. Sasuke just stood there. Hinata, the girl he loves, hugging him. Tightly. He couldn't do anything. All he could do was blush and feel the warmth of her hug.

It lasted forever to him, but then it ended within a few seconds. He felt her slip away from him. Sasuke thought he was losing her. Hinata returned to Sasuke's bed and smiled at him. His face was still in shock and he was blushing.

Hinata blushed at him, breathed in, and said, "Thank you Sasuke-san. All you have done was showing me kindness since we had dinner at Ichiraku Ramen long time ago. You made me feel welcome every time I am with you."

"I-I….U-um….." Sasuke said. She didn't stutter.

"I was wondering if you would like to come with me somewhere tomorrow," Hinata asked without stuttering again.

"I-I….Hn." Then something slipped out of his mouth, "Y-you are not stuttering."

"W-what? I-I u-um…"

Great Sasuke… You just made her into that stuttering state again, Sasuke thought.

"Hinata! Where are you?" Neji shouted.

"Hinata-chan! Time to go home!" Tenten yelled.

Sasuke and Hinata both stared at the window and noticed it was evening. He turned to Hinata and frowned a bit. They had to ruin the moment.

"B-bye Sa-Sasuke-san. A-and I-I wi-will s-see y-you to-tomorrow!" Hinata said while running out of Sasuke's house.

Once she got out, Neji was standing while his arms were folded and Tenten was smirking behind her cousin. She noticed that the Uchiha fan was above her head.

"Why were you in the Uchiha's house?" Neji asked.

"U-um…"

"Remember what you father told you?"

"I-I…Ne-Neji-niisan…..b-but."

"What am I suppose to tell him when we get home?"

Hinata starting shaking. Her face was looking down at the ground while trying to make an excuse. Tenten looked at Hinata, and then saw a boy with black, spiky hair appear behind the Hyuga.

"I was taking care of your cousin because she was knocked out," Sasuke said as he opened the door.

"Did you rape Hinata?" Neji asked.

"No."

"Hinata-chan and Neji-kun. Come on. Neji-kun, Hinata-chan was just knocked out and Sasuke took care of her. Just call that polite," Tenten said.

"…Fine. But, you better keep your hands to yourself Uchiha," Neji said as he grabbed Hinata and Tenten. The weapon mistress turned around and smirked at him while Hinata waved goodbye.

Once they were gone, Sasuke pulled out his journal and wrote,

Entry 9

Your hugs. They felt welcoming. They felt warm. I felt like hugging you forever and feeling comfort around me. I didn't feel alone anymore, but then you slipped away. I felt cold. I wish that one day I could hug you forever.

When Sasuke turned around, he felt something jump on his back.

"Oh Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said.

"What?"

"Where were you? I didn't see you that much at the Konoha festival, yesterday, and today!"

"Training."

"Really? Weren't you at Hinata's house yesterday?"

"What?"

"You are cheating on me?"

"What?"

"Oh could you cheat on your girlfriend, who is soon to become your wife?"

"What?"

"So that's why you are so distant!"

"What?"

"Of all the girls in Konoha, you cheat on me for Hinata! Remember her feelings towards Naruto?"

"What?"

"We are prefect for each other!"

"What?"

"It's like you are Kakashi and I am his perverted book. You read everything I have in store. They are always together! Kakashi and his book! You and I!"

"What?"

"Don't tell me that you made love to her already?"

"What?"

"I thought we were together forever!"

"What?"

"I even made someone make our wedding rings!"

"What?"

"I even schedule the day to make babies!"

"What?"

"Oh could you Sasuke-kun! I even went on fanfiction to read the stories I made about you and I!"
