Sasuke's POV

After what Sakura told me yesterday I couldn't stop thinking about it. Did she really mean it? Did someone actually like me? I really need some advice and I know just who to go to.

As expected I see Hinata in the spot I took her after her fight with Naruto. Surprisingly no one knows about the place except me and Hinata.

I run up to her "Hinata!" I see her turn around with her cheeks filled with cinnamon rolls. She looked like a squirrel with nuts in their mouth but cuter. Anyways I walked up and sat next to her. I noticed she had a little crumb on her cheek. I raise up my hand and see her flinch. Why did she do that!?

"Hinata calm down you just have a little crumb right here" I caress her cheek with my thumb and get the crumb off, I see her turn a little red and I feel my heart ache. She's so cute. What am I thinking? I have to ask her for advice.

"Hinata I need your advice"

"Mine?"

"Who else baka?"

"R-right go ahead"

"Sakura... do you know her" she frowned at the mention of her name.

"Yeah, what about her" Her tone was harsh towards her. I wonder...did she have some history with her?

"Well she asked me out"

"W-what but I thought she was-"

"Was what" After a long pause she finally spoke:

"With Naruto."

Naruto? Hinata's douchey ex? Why would she be with him? Maybe it's a mistake or maybe it was history. Oh well it's in the past so I can forgive her.

"Anyways Sauce, what did you say to her?"

"Really "Sauce"...  Anyways I said I don't know her but I would like to start as friends first and she said that was okay with her"

"Then maybe you should try Sasuke, I mean you're only a teenager for a while then bam! Life squeezes lemons in your eyes and you're an adult"

"You really think it could work out?"

"That's for you to find out Sasuke, you'll get to know her better and she might be the one" She smiles at me.

"Thanks Hinata I knew I could count on you" I raise my hand again and once again she flinches, I continue as I lay my hand on her head and pat it.

Hinata 's POV

After Sasuke leaves I hear a scream come from around the locker rooms that I am not that far from. I hear it again. It's coming from the boys locker room. Oh no I should probably call Sasuke back and tell him to check it out but he is nowhere near in sight. I don't want to go in but someone might be seriously hurt. I rush to the locker rooms and stand in the doorway.

"H-hello?" I yell in but only hear my echo.

"AHH"

"I'm coming in! Please don't be naked!"

As I walk around the fog I see something red dripping.

"Is this...blood?"

But who's blood? I walk around the corner of the showers and see two boys laying down, one seems to be knocked out and the other seems to be bleeding. I run up to them both.

"I-I heard screaming...is everything okay?"

"Who the fuck are you?"

"I'm Hinata Hyuga, sir."
