Hinata's POV

We're going out again tonight. Honestly my opinion about Sakura's interest in Sasuke is that, if she really feels a connection then to go for it. However that doesn't mean give her whole heart away so easily.

My thoughts on Sasuke are very blurred, just like my opinion on the rest of his friends. I don't know Sasuke very closely but one incident can say a lot. I would truly like to hope he has changed from back then. Another thing, I don't think Sasuke quite remembers Sakura. He forgot her name the 'first' time they met. I mean that meeting now has surely left an imprint on him. Like, she slapped him.

I'm grateful to Sakura for being a great friend, she has done a lot for me. I want her to be happy. I think Ino is too caught up in the past and I'll eventually get over the situation fully. One day at least.

Switching back to where we are now. Reality kind of sucks for me. The guy I liked called me ugly. I still like him though, which is pathetic I know that. He seriously wasn't like this from back then. He was always bright, cheerful and full of courage. He wasn't accepted that easily by society, maybe that's why he fell. Revenge perhaps?

He doesn't seem like the person to be like that though. It's so confusing because he was so sweet back then. People change and grow but believe me, I feel like he would be the only person to stay stubborn with a positive personality. Always finding the good in people and keeping hope. I love him, I really do. He wasn't such a jerk from my memories. I feel forgotten. I feel hollow sometimes because he has never fully noticed me. I don't know his background in detail or what made him who he is now, but if he could fall, wouldn't I crumble even quicker?

It's probably very confusing the way I'm talking about Naruto. When we were in the elementary and high school he would be the liveliest out of everyone. I admired him. I still do. What I mean to say is, if he ended up like such a jerk, the most vibrant person, what hope is there for me? For the reality I live in? Will it all go down hill like it might have gone for him?

Still. I don't get it. What changed him?

"Hinata! Are you okay? You don't look so good." Kiba put an arm around my shoulders. We were currently driving to the location where we would 'perform'. As usual it was private and exclusive. But it was amazing and fun. People get wasted quickly in these parties. Concerning, right?

It's a place to get away from your problems. It's much like the club but only even more a club? Its complex to describe. It might be packed and awkward, sometimes not fun most of the night in a normal club. But here, in these parties, everyone is open. Very party ready people. That's why it will probably be one of the most exhilarating parties you have been to.

Even to me, someone who prefers a blanket and book to read over any type of social event can get excited for these evenings. I always have fun showing my skills off on the table. Not just me, we're all very good at why we do.

"We're here Hinata. Are you sure your okay? We can just ditch this and watch a movie at our place? Order take out or something? Or, I don't know, just go to sleep if you wan-" Kiba's eyes were filled with concern.

"No really. I'm okay. You have important clients today, right? It's about expanding the business? I'm okay, seriously." I smiled at him. Kiba's always been a let-loose but caring guy. He is a friend that anyone would be thankful to have.

The moment I stepped out of the car I felt the cold, night breeze whip me in the face. It's refreshing, that feeling. I'm not looking forward to seeing Neji. He's my cousin and I really don't hate him, but unfortunately, he's not a member of my family that I would happily sit down and chit-chat with. He's older than me and my cousin. So even though I'm not fond of him, I still have to stay respectful, right? Then again there is nothing else to respect other than age. He's the one who's caused most of the trauma in the past.

However I can't get through life if I keep feeling tied down by memories. I have to remind my self that every so often. I'm not very strong though. Emotionally and physically average.

"I wanna get wasted." If my father got a wind of what I just said, I would be shamed and looked down upon again.

I think I just shocked my friends too because Ino almost tripped and fell and Sasori tilted his head in confusion. Kiba looked ready to pull me back in to the car to take me home.

Not like me at all, but I want to stop thinking right now.

Naruto's POV

Apparently the teme got an invite from Sakura to an exclusive club owned by that red head we saw last time.

He's really going after Sakura. Who would have thought that the bastard would fall so hard for a girl he has only met a couple of times.

Sasuke's got girls lining up for him and he decided to go after the one who doesn't really seem all that interested. However I'm rooting for the guy. He is really trying his hardest to get her, and I'm all for it. He'll finally have someone to straighten him up. All of us have waited for that day to come and when it does I'll be recording it.

We're supposed to arrive at this place 10:00ish but Sasuke is actually acting up right now. He usually gets dressed in a couple of minutes and now it's been almost a hour.

Sakura's making this guy's head run in circles. If it's already this bad and they're not even official yet, whats going to happen when they really start to go out?

"Yo- Teme, hurry up would you? I think at this rate we'll end up coming in the morning instead. And I mean the breakfast one, not the all nighter."

Sasuke walked down his house's lavish staircase and grabbed his car keys off the living room glass table.

"So are Shikamaru and Neji going to meet us there?" we started to walk towards the door to put our shoes on and had made outside in to the car.

"Hm"

I could just feel my forehead vein throb at his one reply answer. This man does not have a large vocabulary. I guess thats teme though.

"Naruto"

"What?" I'm surprised Sasuke hasn't forgotten my name since he doesn't say it so often.

He briefly looked at me before starting the car and continued with a stale expression until he finally said something that made my stomach churn.

"Hinata's going to be there." He sighed.

"Are you going to be okay?"

After all of these years I can't let go of it can I?
