Pivotal (Sasuke and Hinata)

Await

Hinata reappeared at the secret room inside the building of Uchiha district. She doesn't realized about the time until she went out of the building.

"S-SUNRISE??!!" shouted Hinata.

She quickly ran through the Uchiha district and jumped across the main entrance. She made her way to her house without looking around.

What she doesn't realized, there was Shizune who saw her jumping out from the Uchiha district, a forbidden place.

On the other hand, Hinata's father was worried about his daughter who didn't came home yesterday. he asked Neji to go and looked for her. Neji went to Kiba's and Shino's houses but still no sign of Hinata. Kiba and Shino, then, joined Neji to look for Hinata. The three of them went around the village asking people until they met Naruto, Sakura and Sai.

"Hey guys, what're you doing?," asked Naruto.

"Naruto, have you seen Hinata?," asked Neji.

"Hinata? No, I didn't see her," said Naruto.

"Why are you guys looking for her?,"

Neji explained, "Hinata didn't came home last night"

"Yesterday, we went to a mission together and got back here at night. Then, all of us went back home directly after that," added Kiba.

Then suddenly Akamaru barked several times. Kiba noticed a familiar scent as he looked at the opposite direction.

"Hinata!!," shouted Kiba as he saw Hinata was running.

Hinata noticed the voice calling for her. She stopped and went to Kiba and the others.

"Neji-niisan," said Hinata as she got closer.

"Hinata-sama! Where have you been?! Did you know hoe worried your father is?!," angered Neji.

"I-I'm sorry, Neji-niisan," Hinata apologized.

Then Naruto realized the symbol on Hinata's right hand.

"Since when did you have a tattoo, Hinata?," asked Naruto.

Hinata was shocked, totally forgot about it. She quickly hid her hand behind her back.

"Tattoo?!," shouted Neji.

He forcefully grabbed Hinata's right hand and saw the symbol.

"I-Its not a tattoo!," exclaimed Hinata as she pull back her hand.

"She's right. That symbol is not a tattoo," said Shino.

Then Hinata and the others realized there was a tiny bug on Hinata's right hand.

"Well, if it's not a tattoo, then what?," asked Naruto again.

"It seems like a curse mark," said Sai.

"Curse mark!!," everyone shouted at the same time.

Naruto steps forward and grabbed Hinata's hand. She blushed by Naruto's action when he suddenly pulled her hand closer to his face. Naruto examined the symbol very careful.

"Well, it is definitely different from Sasuke's curse mark," said Naruto.

Upon hearing Sasuke's name, she froze.

"Hinata...," called Neji but she doesn't responded. "Hinata!," he called again with louder tone.

"Uhh...y-yes," she responded.

"Is this is a curse mark?," asked Neji.

Hinata didn't utter a single word after that. She excused herself and no one could force her to stay or speak the truth. Hinata doesn't want anyone to ask her about the symbol so she covered her right hand with bandage.

After that, many week passed and Hinata still waiting for Sasuke to summon her. She had so many thing to ask but she doesn't know where to find Sasuke. The only way to meet Sasuke was the summon.
