I found the start of this story in one of my old word documents, it had maybe a few lines, and i started writing some more, the story just flew so nicely i really enjoyed writing it, and i hope you enjoy reading it. Please R&R.

Love, Dia ~~

It wasn't uncommon for people to randomly sit down at his table especially girls. They'd stumble onto the seat and act like it was all an accident, or sometimes they'd ask if they could sit because there were no free tables anymore. Granted the second one happened to be true once or twice, but usually it was just a lie.

A girl he saw around the diner quite often just sat herself down in front of him, urgency written all over her face. Sasuke rised an eyebrow at her but the situation didn't stop him from putting 2 French fries in his mouth.

"I need you to predent we're here together" Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her. "My ex just walked in and I'm not in the mood to deal with him. If I'm here with someone, you, he'll either leave me alone or he'll at least leave sooner." His eyes moved to the boy that was walking to the counter still obvious to the girl in front of him. "Please…"

Sasuke sighed and pushed his smoothie her way. "It'd be strange if we were here together and only I had ordered something" Her pale eyes lit up like Christmas trees.

"Thank you so much. I'm Hinata by the way" She gave him a genuine smile. He nodded her way.

"Sasuke. I'd shake your hand but that would look strange since we're supposed to be here together."

For a second silence fell over their table but Hinata started laughing a little too loud for his own liking, either way he couldn't help but smirk at that. Naruto would freak if he saw Sasuke talking to a stranger girl and not only that, but actually putting in thought to say something smart and funny.

Sadly Hinata' sudden laughing fit got them the attention of a white haired guy, also known in Sasuke's head as the girl's ex. The said guy looked their way and Sasuke noticed his expression, he seemed to go from hopeful to confused and slightly irritated before putting on a fake smile and strolling their way.

"Hinata long time no see, how are you?" The white-haired male looked at her and gave him a not so subtle glare. He took in their table before raising an eyebrow and cutting her off before she could answer his first question. "Matcha milkshake? I thought you hated those"

"Oh, I used to yea, but u think they changed the receipt here and I tasted one sip from when Sasuke ordered one last time and it was pretty good, I wanted to see for myself" She said smoothly and took a big sip of her, his milkshake. "And I've been pretty good. How about yourself ?" She smiled way too sweetily at him.

"Uh…can't complain" He took another second to examine them again. "Well I was actually thinking maybe we can get together and have dinner sometime next week?"

"Dude, you don't ask out a girl when she's already out with another guy, that's just fucking messed up" Sasuke said, without actually meaning to his voice got deeper and he glared at the 'ex-boyfriend'. He didn't care that he and Hinata weren't there together for real, it's an universal rule you don't ask out a girl if she's there with date, that's just a douchey move.

Hinata was grinning at him from behind her hand and her eyes were sparkling with amusement. The Uchiha had to admit this strange girl was pretty beautiful while she smiled.

"Chill dude. I didn't think this was a date" he said raising his hands as if trying to say he meant no harm. "I mean who the fuck brings a date at this shitty diner" He whispered under his breath, but both Hinata and Sasuke heard him and their moods turned pretty dark.

"Sasuke wanted to go have a sweet picnic in the park near my house but it started raining so I remembered how I wanted to taste the milkshake, so we came here to wait for the rain to cool." He had to admit, her lying skills were top notch, her story just flew in with pretty much no holes and she said it all with such ease. Hinata reached over the table and squeezed his hand when she said that. Sasuke noticed the ex rolling his eyes.

"Whatever. I gotta bounce anyway. See you around" He turned and started walking out the diner. The Uchiha noticed that he didn't even purchase anything, his eyes followed the male but he got distracted by the petite girl that whispered not so quietly "I fucking hope not."

"well that was fun." He smirked at her. "Let me guess, bad break-up?" Hinata sighed and ran both hands over her face.

"The worst. Also like 3 hours after the break-up I just couldn't comprehend that I actually dated him for 4 months." She took another sip of his milkshake and kinda gaged. "Oh god, I forgot how awful this tasted." She said more to herself, it didn't take her a full second to turn beet-red.

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry this is yours. I d-didn't mean to drink from it, it just happened. Let me buy you a new one" She got onto her feet but Sasuke grabbed her wrist and forced her to sit back down.

"Don't worry about it. You barely drank any"

Had he been in his right mind he'd tell the girl to buy him extra fries too for the trouble and once she returned he'd tell her to scramble. But for some reason or another he didn't want her to leave just yet. He pulled the glass back to him and drank from it just to prove to her everything was fine.

"I don't understand how you can drink that. It's not even sweet" Her nose wrinkled in disgust, Sasuke didn't throw the world 'cute' around easily but she looked adorable.

"I hate sweets. So this is perfect" Her jaw dropped, she looked like he had just said he hated puppies and his mother. Hinata blinked a few times, closed her mouth and opened it to say something, closed it back again. She looked genuinely confused, like someone that hated sweets wasn't meant to exist.

"I-I don't understand. How can you hate sweets? T-They make the world a better place. Don't tell me that after a shitty day you don't go home to eat a gallon of ice cream with a dozen of cookies because I will not believe you"

Now it was his turn to gag just thinking about the amount of sugar in the 'snack' she described. His reaction repulsed her.

"Oh wow. I'm perplexed. I had no idea people like you existed"

The fact that she said it with straight face made him believe she honestly didn't think that what he said could be true, which for some reason he found extremely funny.

"Huh, you learn something every day." She said with a smile, it seemed she had gotten over her confusion and found the whole conversation quite as amusing as he did.

A waitress came over to take Sasuke's now empty milkshake glass.

"Would you like anything else?"

"Could you please bring me a veggie burger and a blueberry lemonade? And some fries too" She ordered and it relived him that she did, he hadn't had a lunch companion besides Naruto in a while.

"I'd also like some fries and another match milkshake"

"I'll be right back" The older woman said and left right away. When he turned back to the girl before him she was staring at him with a small smile on her lips so he raised an eyebrow at her.

"I was sure you'd tell me to leave, or tell the waiter you'd like the bill and left yourself." She put both of her hands on the table and payed with her bracelet. "I've seen you around the diner. You're not the…most welcoming face here and I've also see you get up and leave on multiple occasions when someone sat at your table"

Her cheeks were a shade or two darker and she didn't look at him but rather looked at her fidgeting hands. She was nervous. What she said was true, he knew he wasn't the nicest person but he did genuinely enjoy her presence, also he'd been in a number of situations where he could have liked someone to pretend to be there with him so he'd escape an acquaintance or a fan girl. Plus, the very same day Naruto told him he should to an act of 'kindness' a day or his karma would turn bad. He didn't believe in the nonsense his blonde friend talked about but when she stood down she looked in so much distress even he didn't have the heart to tell her to leave.

"You're right, But you looked frightened, I'm not heartless" He said in a neutral voice and Hinata blushed even redder. His lips twitched upward. Where did her confidence and acting skills go?

"I-I-I didn't mean you are heartless…just…umm, uh" she was at a lost of a words.

"It's fine. You didn't offend me" Hinata looked up at him relived.

"I didn't? Oh that's really good, because I didn't mean anything rude by what I said" her shoulders relaxed and her blushed faded, not completely she was still a bit flushed but not quite as red as before.

"Since you knew there was a chance I'd leave why did you sit here?"

Her smile softened a little. "Have you ever seen a person and have this need to talk to them? For them to be your friend? I don't mean to sound creepy, but every time I saw you here I always wanted to talk to you, I just never had the courage. I guess the situation gave me the opportunity to do so. And I'm quite glad because, I don't know about you, but I'm having a pretty good time talking to you"

He was having a good time too. The fact that she wanted to befriend him was a bit odd, especially since just moments ago she said she viewed him cold. He had another question to ask but before he could open his mouth their order came.

"There you go. Enjoy your food"

"Thank you" Hinata nodded at the waitress with a smile.

"I have one more question." She took a sip of her lemonade but gestured with her hand for him to go on. "What happened? When he was here you were a very smooth talker, but when you thought you offended me you seemed to be drowning in your own words"

Her blush came back and Sasuke decided he quite liked how she looked with it. She played with the tips of her hair, rolling it onto her finger. "W-when I was little, I was extremely shy, I couldn't even look at strangers, my parents entered me in acting classes in hopes that I'd get over it. It didn't really go as planned. I'm a lot better now, obviously but I still get anxious easily. Even so the acting classes did help me, when I'm in a crisis I seem to calm down and I'm able to collect my thoughts" She looked a bit over his shoulder in deep thought. "It's like a defense mechanism but it doesn't always work. Case in point when I o-offended you, which I'm sorry about again"

"I see…also you didn't offend me, I told you this before. You only stated your opinion, which was true by the way"

She smiled at him once more and they started eating, it wasn't complete silence, they made small talk asked about normal thing, hobbies, friends, school and all that. Once they were finished and Sasuke asked for the bill this time since it was getting pretty dark and the rain finally stopped, he noticed her playing with the bracelet again.

"Something wrong?"

"Huh?" she looked up at him confused.

"You were fidgeting your hands like you did before when you were nervous. Is something bothering you?"

Hinata opened her mouth. They had spend about 2 or 3 hours together and he was able to pick up some of her habits already. He did seem like the type of person that paid attention, he was quiet but seemed to know. Without meaning to she associated him with one of those old people form the park that sit on a bench and watch everyone pass by, like they don't belong to this world, they just witness it, see the smallest details.

He didn't know what she was thinking about, but her smile was beautifully tragic, she seemed sad, or at least contemplative.

"I was just thinking how much I enjoyed our…lunch? Dinner? And was wondering how awkward it would be to…a-ask for your number m-maybe?"

He also liked when she stuttered a little. "I don't see why not. I enjoyed myself as well"

If only Naruto saw him give is number to a girl, the blonde would never let this slide, which was also why he'd never tell him blonde best friend about the petite blue haired girl that made his ordinary day a little bit extraordinary, in a good way, of course.
