ANOTHER CHAPTER DOWN! PLEASE ENJOY!

CHAPTER 8

Normal POV

"Um...Sasuke?" Hinata looked something past uncomfortable, her eyes widened as she pressed her back against the wall, almost as though she wanted to shrink back into it.

"Yes?" He replied, momentarily distracted as he shifted his colorless eyes to watch Sakura and Naruto leave the room.
He couldn't help but watch Sakura's graceful stride, the distant scent of cherries slowly fading from the room when she left. He turned back when he felt Hinata shift away from him, ducking beneath his arm and coming away from the wall.
Her cheeks were the color of rubies, and she looked something past frazzled, yet Sasuke saw a fierce determination behind her lavender eyes.

"I-I can't let you hurt Sakura..." She paused, her intense gaze faltering as she tried to choose the right words.

"I have to protect her, she's my friend." She finally said, her index fingers fidgeting about each other and her uncertain gaze flickering to the ground.
Sasuke felt a tangible pang of annoyance at her weakness, at the fact that she was trying to defend her friend while he could barely talk. He felt the urge to make her uncomfortable then, to test her and see how deep her resolve ran.

"Hinata, you don't have to do anything," Sasuke smirked, advancing quickly towards her. His hand encircled her waist, pulling her closer and watching the blush deepens on her pale face.

"Sakura doesn't have to be your concern." He brushed a bit of dark hair off of her cheek, his attuned hearing quick to pick up on the small whimper. He was surprised when her parted lips came together in a firm line, her delicate hand entrapping his and pulling it back from her face.

"No, I suppose she doesn't. But I'd rather watch out for my friends. I-I don't know why you're so obsessed with making her suffer, Sasuke." Hinata said, her tone gentle but her words biting as she pulled away from Sasuke. She stepped away from him, heading to the door at a furious pace.

"Hinata, stop." Sasuke snapped, lunging out and grabbing her wrist. "I am not obsessed with that worthless, pink-haired ditz; I'm obsessed with the stature of the Uchiha compound's hired help. She certainly doesn't add to our pristine reputation." He growled, anger filling him. He was liking Sakura less and less as time passed; the insolent girl was only making trouble for the entire household. Before Hinata could reply, a rather sadistic idea filled Sasuke's mind.

"Actually, let's make a deal. Let's trade servants." Sasuke grinned, and before Hinata could ask what he was talking about he had made up his mind.

"Until the wedding, Sakura will be my servant and Naruto will be yours. If she remains seen as unfit, I will let her go after the wedding. The same goes for Naruto. Deal?"

Naruto

After that little scene with Sasuke we went back to Lady Hinata's room to help what's her face… I think her name was Ino. When we got there I saw Hinata's other servant just putting the finishing touches on her room.

"Sorry for leaving you to do all the work Ino." Sakura said as she sat down on the bed.

"No problem Sakura… Sooo, what happened?" Ino asked closing the closet door.

"Oh I don't really want to talk about."

"And I don't want to hear about it." I said, getting angry as I thought about that jerk.

When then heard the door opened and looked to see that it was Lady Hinata. She had looked troubled about something then she looked up. I guess she was shocked to see me in her room because her eyes opened wide.

"Sorry if I am not welcomed here. I will take my leave Mi'Lady." I bowed then started to leave but she stopped me.

"Uh! N-no! Actually I n-need to speak to y-you and Sakura. Ino you are w-welcome to stay." Ino just nodded her head.

"W-well, Sasuke came up with something… we will switch servants until the wedding day."

"What!?" Sakura and I yelled.

"Yes, Sakura will b-be Sasuke's s-servant and Naruto w-will b-be mines." She finished. Looks like I'll be having that little talked with Sasuke right now. I stomped out of Hinata's room and made my way to Sasuke's.

I opened the door. Hard.

"What the hell! Why? Are you really that obsessed with Sakura?!" I yelled furiously.

"No I just think she needs a little lesson. Never mess with an Uchiha's status."

"Pffh! Yeah right! More like a bastard's status!"

"Watch your tone Naruto." He sneered.

"Oh I'm sorry Sir but I do believe that I am no longer your servant! How could you do something so hateful? For what? You want everyone in the world to look up to an egotistical self concern-"

"Naruto! That's enough!" the voice that yelled that was a surprise because it was none other than the timid Hyuga.

"If you have to yell at anyone yell at me. I am the one who agreed to it. If I didn't believe in Sakura I would've said no okay."

"Bu-"

"You may not be Sasuke's servant now but you are mines." She said in a pleading tone. I sighed.

"Yes Mi'Lady."

"Come on Naruto. Sakura will be by your side later for she is still shocked at the situation." Hinata informed.

"Hn." Sasuke said. I walked out with Hinata.

Sakura

I can't believe it! He just couldn't leave me alone! And now I'm stuck being his servant. Come on Sak! Suck it up and go in. I reached for the door knob but pulled back.

"Man I don't want to go!"

"No one never wants to go into his room really." I jumped at the voice. I turned around to see a man who looked like Sasuke but older, holding a child.

"Hi I am Itachi his older brother."

"Oh, uh, hi Sir Itachi." I bowed.

"So what brings one of the Hyuga's servants to my brother's room?" I sighed.

"Well Sir Sasuke and Lady Hinata decided to trade servants until they are wedded." I said.

"Seems like something Sasuke would do but for Lady Hinata to agree, something off."

Yeah tell me about.

Flashback

"Sakura I need you to behave and show you are worthy to be a servant." Hinata pleaded.

"Yeah I am worthy... to you not him." I sneered.

"Sakura please. I wouldn't' have agreed if I did not believe in you." I looked up to see she was giving me a sad face.

"Fine, but I'm only doing this for you."

"I still can't believe you agreed." Naruto scoffed.

"You should be glad you get to spend more time with Lady Hinata." I sail with a sly smile. I noticed he had a small blush on his face before he looked away. I giggled while Hinata tilted her head.

Flashbacks ends

Well at least I will be able to help Naruto and Hinata. Maybe I should tell Ino about the plan I thought.

"Well shall we go in?" Itachi asked. I nodded my head. I took a breath and got ready for the hell that awaited me.
