Odd

Hinata was…odd.

She was hyperaware of her own actions as well as those of others. Her pale eyes caught everything, even the slightest of movements made her tense. She jumped at the smallest of sounds. She was skittish and nervous and more than a little insecure.

She watched him eat with such intensity that he would've sworn she was waiting for the poision in his food to take effect. Unfortunatly for her, Orochimaru's experiments on his body would prevent such a demise. The food she'd made for breakfast, while simple, was palatable. It wasn't extravagant but…it tasted familiar.

It tasted like something he had looked forward to in a past that was no longer his own. Pushing the thought aside, he finished his food and his chopsticks clattered on the plate. The sound made the woman jump and let out a small squeak.

'What a terrible kunoichi.' He thought. Not even Sakura on her worst day was this jumpy.

"Are you finished Uchiha-san?" Hinata asked as he rose from his seat. "Thank you for joining me."

Sasuke gave her a curt nod. It was the most he could do when faced with hospitality he couldn't reciprocate. Pale eyes crinkled with a small smile which she shyly hid behind her hand. Sasuke felt his own eyes narrow at the woman. Had he done something to warrant being laughed at? Seeing his glare, she looked away and spoke.

"Naruto-kun might return tomorrow. Feel free to visit."

Sasuke looked around the pristine apartment meant for two. Everything was in it's proper place and not at all how he imagined a whirlwind like Naruto to live. Hinata sat before him, hands folded daintly in her lap and eyes downcast to her half eaten plate. Not a hair out of place or a wrinkle in her clothes. Clearly expectant. Obviously unfufilled.

"Hn." He grunted, tearing his eyes away from the Hyuuga and making his way to the door.

Naruto might return. He might not. Either way he had nothing better to do than to come back and see.
