(Y/N)'s P.O.V.

I finished the last of my dinner and left to my room. I decided to unpack what little things I had. It was mainly extra wrappings and cloaks and a few small jars of the antidote to my clan's poison, which was a special flower. I soon felt a presence behind me and turned around. "Oh. I'm s-s-sorry. I-I didn't m-mean to s-stare. I-I just t-t-thought-" I cut off the poor stuttering blue hair girl off. "It's all right." I said in a soft tone, trying ease the Girl of being so nervous. "Hey, You're Hinata, right? Hiashi's daughter." She seemed surprised that I know her. "Y-Yeah. H-How d-d-did you know?" Her voice was so quiet it seemed like she was just indefinitely whispering. "Yeah. Our clans used to be very close until about a decade ago." She nodded but then took a step forward. "I noticed at dinner that you panicked when you fell into Neji. I understand that you would f-feel nervous around people but, the Hyuga clan is resilient, especially Neji. He's surprisingly strong in general." I looked down and began to fidget with the flower. "It is true that my clan is poisonous to people but the poison ranges from person to person. Like pain tolerance. Some people can be hit with several kunai and keep going, while others will cry out from a paper cut." Hinata seemed to laugh at the last bit. "Each person is poisonous but some people are worse. There are some people here who will have to fully hold onto something for a couple minutes till the poison talked effect, but others..." I looked down towards my hands. "... Others can simply brush up against something and it will Immediately be poisoned." I let out a chuckle that sounded like I was about to cry. "Sometimes there's a person so poisonous that they will even begin to poison the weaker members of the clan." Hinata gave me a look that would've made a grown man cry. "I'm so sorry to hear that..." I swiped at my eyes and thought it was a good time to change the subject. "Did you know that the only known antidote to our tribe's poison is this flower." I held up the small jar. "It's called the Arisaema sikokianum, A Japanese 'Jack-in-the-pulpit' and can be deadly if ingested, for normal people." She took a step closer. "M-may I see it?" I handed her the small jar and continued to talk about it. "The flower is poisonous but when it's mixed with my clan's saliva, the two kinds of poison cancel out and make the antidote." She nodded, seeming to be paying full attention. "The flower is quite beautiful." I smiled. "Yeah... It is." there was a crash outside the window and I was standing with my hands unwrapped and holding a kunai at the ready. The door doo to my room was opened and Neji was there in a fighting stance as well. I motioned towards the window and slowly walked over to the window. I shoved it open and in fell a Yellow haired kid. I pressed my knee to his chest and held my hand and the Kunai a mere few inches from his throat. "Who are you." I said with a stern tone. "N-N-Naruto?" Hinata said, her face as red as a rose. Neji sighed and stood up. "It's ok (Y/N), It's someone we know. "Believe it!" He yelled as he sat up. I gasped and fell back at his sudden movement. Did I touch him? Neji seemed to read my mind and yanked him back. "Naruto hold still. Byakugan!" I sat there terrified as Neji looked him up and down. I've heard about the byakugan before, but I never realized how... not necessarily alluring but Interesting it is. Especially with Neji. Wait a minute, what am I thinking a bout, I just meet Neji and- "He's ok." I snapped out of it and looked up at him, confused for a second, but then it hit me. "That's good." He stuck out his hand and I accepted it. He pulled me up but was he strong. I almost fell over but got my correct footing. "N-N-Naruto, W-what are you doing h-here." I heard Hinata say. "Well, uhh, you see, I was, wel-" "Spit it out Naruto!"Said Neji in an irritated tone. "W-well I heard the Yudoku clan was here and I just wanted to see them in person." Hinata seemed to sink into her Jacket. "W-well I g-guess that makes s-s-sense." I turned to look at him. "Wait, how did you know which room I was in?" He looked almost dumbfounded. "I didn't actually, I was just looking for any random room." Neji sighed. Naruto said goodbye and crawled back out the window. I went to put the flowers into my night side drawer, but what Hinata said caught me off guard. "N-Neji, H-h-how come y-you were here w-when Naruto came in?" I turned and faced him. His face seemed ever so slightly pinker. "Well, I was walking by when I heard the window crash, Obviously." I smirked. "You know, you'd think for someone as smart as you seem would be able to come up with a better lie." Neji scoffed and Hinata giggled. "Well there's not a better lie because that's the truth." He said stubbornly. Is it just me or was there a hint of playful in there. "Sure. Stick  with that story." Hinata kept giggling and Neji just eventually left. I began to re-wrap my hands. Hinata looked over. "W-why was N-Neji listening?" That's a good question. "I don't know." I finished wrapping my hands. "W-well, It's g-getting pretty late. G-good night (Y/N)" Said Hinata as she left. I waved her a goodbye and then proceeded to put on my PJ's. It was nothing more than some training shorts and a solid colored mesh shirt. As I went to get into bed but realized something, the bed has no blankets. Great...
