ItaHina

This damn chapter didn't want to post right even though it was perfectly fine before I published it. So i'm sorry about the multipublish alert.

Hinata smiled as she made her way up the steps to hers and Naruto's apartment. She carried the bags in her grasp carefully as she didn't want to spill the food or drinks. One step at a time she made her way up the three tiers or stairs to her front door. Every single step she took, her smile faded a bit. Something felt... off. Perhaps it was the heat from the ramen that was making her uneasy, or maybe the stress of trying not to drop six scalding bowls of it on her. She didn't know.

She took light tentative steps towards her from door, and she frowned as she moved to set the bags down, the door was cracked. Her brows knitted together as she gently pushed open the door. Perhaps Naruto had left it cracked for her just in case. They were in a relatively safe neighborhood after all. Her lips pressed together as she slipped her eyes shut. She made her way through the apartment and the sound she heard was not of Naruto playing the game like he usually was when she got home. But then again, she had gotten home earlier than normal today. She had wanted to surprise him and show up early with the food she promised.

She set the food down on the table and then she made her way over to the bedroom door. Anxious fingers wrapped around the knob of the closed door. The sound of their bed creaking was what had gotten her attention in the first place. She slipped the door open, and her heart shattered as she saw what was going on. A brown-haired woman she had never met before was... riding Naruto. Naruto had his eyes shut and his hands on the woman's hips as he thrust up into her swiftly. Hinata tore her eyes from the scene before her and took off running.

She snatched her keys off the kitchen counter, accidentally snagging the bags of food and tearing them off the counter. They crashed all over the floor and splattered her, but she kept going. She needed to get away. She took one look at the bedroom door that Naruto was stumbling out of with a blanket wrapped around his hips. She took one look at him before she fled the apartment. The only sound that echoed behind her was her name as he yelled it after her.

She stumbled down the stairs, colliding with the railing. She winced but continued to make her way down the steps. She knew she was probably going to have bruised ribs, but she could only contribute it to her own clumsiness. She placed a hand over her aching ribs as she swiftly slipped into her car and drove off, seeing him standing there in her rearview mirror. She wanted to cry, wanted to punch the steering wheel, wanted to scream her lungs out, but she didn't. She couldn't.

She reached over and tapped on the touch screen of her car. "C-call Sasuke." she said, and the car asked her if she wanted to call Sasuke Uchiha. "Yes." she said, her voice wavering softly. She needed to see her friend. It started to ring, and she held with bated breath as she waited to see if he would answer her call. "Hinata?" he asked, and she released the breath she held, albeit shakily. "Sasuke... can I come stay for a while?" she asked, and he was silent for a moment.

"How long, and what happened?" he asked, and she bit her lip to hold back the tears once more. "I um... I need to stay a few days at least... until I can find somewhere else to live." she said this softly, so she didn't know what had happened. "You can stay with me and Sakura for as long as you need." he said and she nodded softly, knowing full well he couldn't see her. "Thank you..." she said, and Sasuke sighed softly, but she could hear the ruffling of fabric. "What happened Hinata?" Sakura asked and Hinata tried her hardest not to cry all over again.

"I'll tell you when I get there." she said, and they both sighed. "Do we need alcohol?" Sakura asked and Hinata contemplated this for a moment, gripping the steering wheel lightly. "Yes. And... I need you to not tell anyone that I'm with you." she said softly and the two were silent for a moment. "Ok, Hinata. I will go out and get the alcohol. Sakura will give you some of her clothes if they'll fit, and we can get this all sorted out." Sasuke said and she bit her lip once more.
