I do not own Naruto at all. I just own the story.

Chapter 8: What Happens Now?

Naruto slowly lifted his eye lids up and immediately saw the gift he has been blessed with. How did he get so lucky? She chose him of all people. He remembered the night they shared before and a smile crept up his face.

He told her that he loved her last night and the feeling was reciprocated. The blonde pulled his girlfriend of five months closer to him and took in her aroma. What they had would be forever and he knew that.

He watched her squirm as she woke up from her slumber. The two greeted each other with a smile.

"Good morning, beautiful." Naruto whispered.

"Good morning."

"Did you sleep well?"

"Like a baby."

Hinata gently cupped his cheeks and admired Naruto's facial features. She wondered why he didn't get many fangirls with his good looks and talent. Maybe it was good that he didn't have many, that way she'd be the only one to regonize who he is.

"I can stay like this all day." the pale girl admitted.

"That can be arranged."

"I can't. I have a clan meeting today."

Shit. She has a clan meeting TODAY. Her father is probably looking all over for her. What excuse could she possibly come up with to save herself from her father's wrath?

"Hinata?"

"Naruto, I must go." Hinata said in a hushed tone. With that, she scurried out of the bed and looked for her clothes.

"What's the rush?"

"My dad, clan meeting. Everything-"

"Hey... Don't fret. I'll give you a ride home." Naruto spoke calmly as he tried to comfort is frazzled girlfriend.

"Okay."

Hinata managed to find all her particles of clothing and dressed in them. She was evident of love bites from the night before and she prayed her father wouldn't notice them. Naruto got dressed and searched for his keys. When he found them, the couple left.

"Thanks for taking me home." Hinata said as Naruto pulled over by her house.

"No big deal. I know that clan stuff is important. Chouji talks about it all the damn time."

Naruto got out of his car and helped Hinata out. He then grasped her hands and pulled her into a tight hug.

"I love you."

"I love you too." she blushed.

She gave him a peck on his lips and walked to her house. She turned to him and waved. He smiled at her and went back into his car and sped off.

Hinata opened her door hoping that her family was eating breakfast so she can easily sneak by. Instead, the teenager was met with the furious eyes of her father.

"Otou-san.."

"Don' . .Word."

She held her breath in and obeyed. Hiashi looked up and down his eldest daughter.

"When were you going to tell me?"

"W-What do you mean?"

"That you're dating that dumbass bassist from that band!"

"I-I don't know what you're talking about."

"Then tell me what the hell is this!" her father screamed as he shook her beige journal in her face.

Hinata shuddered. He knew everything now. Her love for Naruto, her thoughts on her father, everything.

"Father I can explain."

"Shut the hell up." he said as he grabbed Hinata by her wrist.

"You're hurting me!"

"I'm hurting you.. You're the one ruining our clan's reputation by sleeping around with some sleazy rock star!"

Hinata stood there in silence.

"You were with him last night weren't you."

"Yes.."

"I'm not a stupid man, daughter. If I didn't know any better. You two slept in the same bed."

Hinata met her father's cold eyes. She was on the brink of tears. What was he going to do to her? She's never seen him this way before and it scared her.

"Did you or did you not have sex with him."

Hinata gulped and continued to fight back her tears. She replied her father with the honest truth. And she took the beating she knew that she had coming for her the moment she stepped into her home.

She sat there lifeless as her father looked down on her as he always did. He called her every name in the book and teased her as she cried. She wished her mother was at her side right now along with her beloved cousin. She looked up at the man whom she calls father with sad eyes. He shook his head with disappointment and spat at her as he walked away.

She felt ther phone vibrate. It was Naruto. She pushed the answer button and answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Hina? Are you okay?"

"No...I'm not okay." she sniffled.

"What happened?"

"Can you just come and pick me up?"

"Yeah. I'll be there soon." He answered her before he hung up the phone.

Hinata looked at her bruised body. She would need to shower before Naruto came. She got a new outfit and put it on her vanity before entering the shower. She let the beads of water hit her back as she let the steam help clear her troubles. She looked down and saw the blood from her body wash away with the water. She turned off the shower and dried herself off. She made sure to be gentle where her bruises and cuts were as she put on her clothes. She wore a navy blue sweatshirt with some black jeans. She brushed her hair into a side ponytail and put on some comfortable sneakers.

I'm here

After she recieved the text message, Hinata climbed out of her window and met up with Naruto.

"Thanks for picking me up"

"Hinata."

"Hmm?"

He turned her head towards him and looked at her top lip. It was cut. Naruto was enraged.

"Who did this to you?" he asked. He didn't recieve an answer which upsetted him.

"It was your dad wasn't it."

She nodded slowly. Pissed, Naruto yanked off his seat belt and headed toward his girlfriend's house.

"Naruto don't!"

"Why did he do that?"

"Because I was gone last night and didn't come back."

"This isn't the first time he put his hands on you, huh."

"He's done it before... But only because I disobeyed him-"

"Don't make excuses for him! You don't deserve to be hit, ever!"

"Please, don't hurt him!"

Naruto stopped in his place. He clenched his eyes shut as he sighed deeply.

"I know that you're angry... but he's still my dad."

"I won't hurt him... You have to promise me that you'll never come back to this place."

"I promise." she spoke slowly as she walked towards him.

He hugged her gently as he whispered his apologies. He was confused as to why she would want her father to be safe and not harmed. He'd have to ask her that.

Naruto hasn't met the bastard but already disliked him. What kind of man abuses his daughter? Is this the only thing he does to her? There are many questions that needed to be answered but Naruto knew that it wouldn't be answered any time soon. He would have to patient.

The blonde broke the hug and helped Hinata into his car and the two went away. If the two didn't know any better, they were in for a world full of trouble coming their way.
