The morning has gone by just as any other busy day, and now it was time for lunch normally he would have zero problems with this turn of events. He could go out and have lunch with his lover or he could just finish his work early so he would have more time to spend with the blue haired woman, but days like these just remind him of how he got into this predicament.

It had started a few years ago in a family meeting just like this, as always he had not been looking forward to being nagged or hear his great uncle and grandmother nag his brother and father. Of course on that day he would have killed to hear the nagging instead of what had been said

Now normally one would assume that the company was in his father's or perhaps the oldest sibling's power, sadly it was neither of the two. The company was owned by his great Uncle Madara and grandmother Miya, both have always been extremely traditional and overly concerned with the positions in society... it was just the way they were raised and the customs that they had growing up he assumed. This was one of the number one reasons that neither his father nor brother was at the head of the company. Mikoto Uchiha and Karin Uchiha both were not to the elders liking for one reason that they lacked money position and power... According to them they were not fit to process the name Uchiha and for that they would receive nothing ever... Not the company and nothing to inherit when the time came Nothing, for now they are taking care of things but without a proper heir the company will belong to the state.

So that leaves Sasuke

(Flash Back)

The day had started off just like any other; Sasuke woke up and dreaded to get out of bed, eventually he managed to get the strength he needed to complete the task and the rest that come with the morning routine. As always he leaves his bachelor apartment and heads towards the family business.

The morning went by and then it was finally it was time for the monthly family meetings were they meet to discuss the progress and what not. As usual they all started and you could feel the tension in the room, everyone was trying to keep calm and just get things over with as quick and as civil as possible.

But as always his grandmother asks the question "Sasuke..." she started her dark eyes staring at him with a spark that Sasuke did not like. Miya Uchiha was a proper lady who always nags him about settling down especially with his play boy reputation, according to her it is a horrible thing and that it not only makes him look bad, but he is taking the family down with him. "I now I have told you this many times, but I think that its time you settle down with a nice girl." she stated, as always when the topic comes out he gets tense and just gets annoyed with his grandmother, he was about to answer her but this time she beat him to it "Which is why I decided that the time has come for this." She said a stern look on her face "I have given you plenty of time to find a nice girl and you have not." she paused and pressed a button on the intercom of the phone and she told the secretary to send 'her' in.

Then a blond woman entered the room...

(End Flash Back)

Sasuke was brought out of his thoughts when papers went flying everywhere, 'what the hell did I miss?' he thought to himself, looking around the room he sees his grandmother verbally abusing his brother. Staring at the scene with wide eyes he looks over to his uncle and father having each other's glares on lock down... it was moments like these that he realized that there was something seriously wrong with his family, and right now he would rather not intervene with his surroundings so, discreetly taking out his mobile device...

.

At that moment Hinata's phone rings, looking at the caller ID she sees that its none other than her boyfriend, a big smile comes on her face one that does not go unnoticed by the other females in the table.

Karin knows that look all too well, and is begging the universe that it's not a call. "Haha Hinata you know it's rude to answer a call at the table", she scolds the model.

Hinata gives her a strange look, since when does Karin care about manners and such she is always talking on the phone when Itachi calls her, "Okay..." she tells Karin, "I'll just go and reply over there." she points to the restrooms, "Um excuse me." she tells them, and proceeds to getting up and leaving to answer the TEXT that Sasuke has sent her.

Taking this as her chance, "So Tenten what brings you here today?" asked the red head, hoping to get rid to her sister in law.

Giving her a big smile "Well I was just going around town for a while you know, since Sasuke is in a meeting." she informs the two at the table in as a matter of fact way. Tenten was informed of the wealth that her husband will inherit when the time comes, something that she is not about to keep it to herself.

"Really?" answered the jade eyed girl, wishing she could wipe that look off her face, and she knew the perfect way to break the show off snob. But that is something that she will never do, no matter how much joy it would bring her, Tenten would not be the only one hurt by the fact. Of course that didn't mean she would stand such a woman "And since when does he have lunch with you?" she questioned in an all knowing tone, a thing that was not over looked by the one sitting next to her.

Discreetly elbowing the pinkett, Karin's ruby red eyes scan the restroom area hoping she can rid of the annoyance that interrupted their lunch. 'Ugh come on think' she orders herself, trying to figure out a way to either leave or have her leave.

Such comment did not go unheard by the wife, "What is that supposed to mean?" she offended yelled, she was about to cause a scene. Tenten had never told anyone such thing, as far as anyone knows they spend as much time as they can together "He is working very hard, so he can maintain the status of the company... especial since they are going global." she informed her 'friends'.

Sadly the two ran out of time because Hinata was on her way back with an enormous smile on her face. Taking her seat, she scanned the women's faces causing her glowing face to become a confused one "Um did I miss something?" she asked around, Karin looked worried, Sakura looked mad and Tenten looked like she was about to erupt, only to change her emotions when she noticed her.

"Well you look very happy... let me guess your boyfriend?" she questioned, this comment brought the blue haired beauty's smile back as she nodded. "So who is he?" she asked in an excited tone, ready to out beat her with her powerful husband's name.

At that moment Sakura's and Karin's hearts stopped and it felt like they could not move, they saw Hinata's lips about to move to answer her question, wishing that they could stop this in some way. Karin's heart relaxed when Hinata was interrupted by a call, automatically Karin knew who was calling the brunette... Sasuke must have made plans with Hinata and was now calling to make sure Tenten suspects nothing. But something like this could not happen again, fate had just made things clear and is teasing her with this... the only thing that can solve such a problem is for Sasuke to chose money or Hinata.

"Oh sorry I have to take this excuse Me." she stated in a lady like fashion, her mask fully in place in Hinata's presence.

When they see that Tenten is out of hearing range, both light and dark shade of red look to their complete soppiest hair color friend. "So what did he want?" they both said in union, causing a small blush to appear in her irony skin.

"Nothing... we just agreed to go out to dinner tonight." she ended with a sadden sigh "It's just that things are... I don't know we just don't spend as much time together as I wish we could" she told them, then seriously looked them in the eyes "It's like there is someone else in the picture." she told them.

Hearing that Hinata was having suspicions made their blood circulation stop, "So you think... he cheating?" Sakura nervously asked.

Hinata sighed "If you call over working cheating then yes... It's like they can't let me have Sasuke at all their always calling and lately... I haven't seen him as much... I guess... I just... love him and I don't want to shear him." she ended with a giggle at how she stated it, they have been together for ten months, it will be a year in two months and if this is how life will be with the man, then she is not sure if she can handle it.

.

"I can't I have to stay in late." said Sasuke, annoyed that he could sence the tears about to form in his wife's eyes. He had just made plans with Hinata, plans that he is not about to break for anything especially his wife.

"But our anniversary is coming up and-" she was cut off by her husband, to some extent she understood him, there are a lot of expectations from him and she doesn't want to give him any problems.

Perfection; that is what she wants to be for him, the perfect wife that any man would want.

"Look just take care of it... in fact I don't care how much it cost." he told the woman that he was bound to, a tie that he has been suffocating on for almost four years now... four long agonizing years with this annoyance that won't leave him.

"Oh okay." she said, disappointment could be heard in her voice.
