Chapter 17

Hinata was back, she was back.

He finally felt whole again. There he was holding her close, in his arms, letting the calmness of her being wash away worries.

"I missed you so much" She said as she snuggled her nose against his chest.

"So did I" Naruto secretly smile.

"Hinata!" A angry male voice rang in their ears, It was followed by angry footsteps and then the back door of the back of the school, where they laid on each other's arms in a carefree world, opened revealed a angry looking Neji.

"Neji" Hinata gasped with surprise.

"Neji?" Naruto asked confusedly. He stared at Neji and recognized him from that morning. Neji glared at Naruto while pulling Hinata away from him. "Hey what gives?"

"Hinata we have to go home!" Neji growled while Hinata pushed him away.

"I can walk on my own Neji!" Hinata snapped.

"What the hell is going on?" Naruto asked.

"Neji here is my over protective cousin" Hinata glared at Neji.

"I'm not over protective. I'm following my uncle's wishes on keeping you away from people like him" Neji spitted with despised. Neji then dragged Hinata away while she pleaded to him to let her go and just like that Naruto was left alone.

"People like him" Neji's words rang on Naruto's head. Normally he wouldn't have minded but from someone close to Hinata it did hurt. Everyone thought he was some kind of freak that would hurt that would bring her down, but they were wrong. So wrong.

"Bastard" Naruto growled to himself as he sat right back down and got his guitar out.

Naruto: Made a wrong turn
Once or twice
Dug my way out
Blood and fire
Bad decisions
That's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, missundaztood
Miss "no way it's all good"
It didn't slow me down
Mistaken
Always second guessing
Underestimated
Look, I'm still around...

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like your less than
Fuckin' perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like your nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me

You're so mean
When you talk
About yourself
You are wrong
Change the voices
In your head
Make them like you
Instead
So complicated
Look how big you'll make it
Filled with so much hatred

Such a tired game
It's enough
I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons
See you same

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like your less than
Fuckin' perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like your nothing

You're fuckin' perfect to me
The world stares while I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in lying and I tried tried
But we try too hard, it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cuz they're everywhere
They don't like my genes, they don't get my hair
Stringe ourselves and we do it all the time
Why do we do that?
Why do I do that?
Why do I do that?

Ooh, pretty pretty pretty,
Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less then, fuckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please if you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing you're fuckin' perfect, to me
You're perfect
You're perfect
Pretty, pretty please don't you ever ever feel like you're less then, fucking perfect
Pretty, pretty please if you ever ever feel like you're nothing you're fucking perfect to me

When was it all going to stop? He wanted the whispers to stop.

He wanted the glares to stop.

He wanted to be happy for once.

"Since when do I mop?" Naruto asked himself sitting up. He had softened up. Never had he cared of being called worthless, never had he cared about the glares or the whispers. He always proved them wrong, he was better than them.

"Damn Hinata" Naruto sigh. "She made me all soft" He chuckled softly.

He stood and walked away with his guitar in hand. He let his legs lead him to where ever they wished. He was surprise to find himself in a small meadow on the outskirts of town. Suddenly he heard a soft melody flowing through the wind.

Girl: I don't wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest
Or the girl who never wants to be alone
I don't wanna be that call at four o'clock in the mornin'
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home

The voice sounded so familiar, it was enchanting and calming.

Ah, the sun is blindin'
I stayed up again
Oh, I am findin'
That that's not the way I want my story to end

I'm safe up high, nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?

I don't wanna be the girl that has to fill the silence
The quiet scares me 'cause it screams the truth
Please don't tell me that we had that conversation
'Cause I won't remember, save your breath 'cause what's the use?

Ah, the night is callin'
And it whispers to me softly, "Come and play"
I, I am fallin'
And if I let myself go I'm the only one to blame

I'm safe up high, nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?

Comin' down, comin' down, comin' down
Spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round
I'm lookin' for myself, sober

Comin' down, comin' down, comin' down
Spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round
Lookin' for myself, sober

Naruto followed the voice growing strong by every step until he found himself face to the girl that held the voice.

When it's good then it's good, it's so good till it goes bad
Till you're trying to find the you that you once had
I have heard myself cry, "Never again"
Broken down in agony, just tryin' find a friend

I'm safe up high, nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?

I'm safe up high, nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?
How do I feel this good sober?

Naruto stared at the girl in front of her. He stepped closer making a twig snap under his feet making the girl gasp.

"Naruto! What are you doing here?"

HinaHyuga: We're sorry this chapter is so damn short but it's a filler.

AlexaSinead: We are aware that the chapter has more song than story but we're buying time

HinaHyuga: The songs use were Fucking Perfect and Sober (blucross) both by Pink

AlexaSinead: Review!
