Haruno Sakura

2. Hinata

Hyuuga Hiashi was angry.

His daughter was supposed to marry another clan's heir. Not some wannabe ninja from a civilian family!

And a female, nonetheless! That was unheard of!

"Hinata, I need to speak with you. Alone."

The two women in front of him shared a glance. The Haruno sighed, seemingly lost their nonverbal argument, and announced,

"I'll wait in the garden."

Sakura knew Hiashi was an a**. Sure, he was the almighty head of the clan and a very powerful shinobi, but that didn't change the fact he was an a**.

Okay, so maybe her opinion wasn't impartial (after all he had made her lover feel like cr*p during all her childhood). Sue her.

However before she could continue her musing, she sensed Hinata's chakra signature coming closer and closer. The moment she felt it, she knew something was wrong and when the Hyuuga heiress came into view, her eyes full with tears, Sakura was proven correct.

Getting on her feet, the rosette quickly enveloped Hinata in a hug.

"What happened?" she asked softly

The other woman said something in response, but Sakura caught only "I... disappointment... clan-" and "...Neji... think...".

It was enough to anger the rosette. After all, she was famous for her short temper.

Even so, she forced herself to calm down. She would deal with Hiashi later.

Now she had to calm Hinata down.

"Hinata." when there was no response, Sakura shook the kunoichi gently "Hinata, listen to me. Neji would be happy for you! For us. And do you know how I know?"

Still crying and shaking, Hinata looked at Sakura and shook her head.

"Because even though I didn't really know him, I know he adored you! If you're happy, he would be happy too."

The Hyuuga heiress started sobbing and all Sakura could do was hold her.

"I-I feel like I've failed him..." Hinata admitted quietly

The rosette shook her head,

"He would be proud of you, I know it."

Sakura didn't know how much time passed, but eventually Hinata calmed down and muttered,

"Let's go somewhere else."

"You go ahead. I'll have a word with your father and then I'll find you."

Hinata could swear her fiancée's grin was slightly maniacal.

A/N: There you go. HinaSaku or SakuHina or whatever you want to call it.

By the way Demoness Kneesocks, I'm working on that KisaSaku one and it should be up tomorrow.

Another requests? Better send them now while I still have inspiration :D

Love,
