Master of Teasing

"Her past relationship "

<Hinata POV>

Once upon a time. I was a calm and measured girl. The first 5 classes, I was on homeschooled. I had health problems. In the 6th grade, my parents said that it was time for me to go to school and learn to communicate with people.

When I came to the first lesson, I was very much uncomfortable and I was very worried and nervous. When I entered the class and introduced myself, I had a feeling that the students were discussing me, and in a bad way. I was walking to my Desk, trying to make a smile, and at that moment they tripped me and I fell; they started laughing, and I got up with tears, sat down at the Desk and started wiping them. I was hurt both physically and mentally.

I tried to make friends with other students, and I even managed to do it, although not everyone was friendly to me. Girls was told that me boring, tedious, and i do not know how to have fun. That may be so, but it's not my fault. Yeah, I was sitting at the books and not enough time was given to his appearance, but I loved myself for who I am! I had friends who understood me, and I didn't care what others said.

One day, sitting in the library, I overheard four boys talking; they were discussing dancing.

- Well, so what? Did you guys pick a girl to dance with?

- Nope.
- No.
- Uh.... Nope.
- Well done! Gonna go to the dance!
- Did you at least find it?
- Yeah!
- Who's that?
- Her name... Hinata.

When I heard him say my name, I went into a coma. I was invited to the dance! I didn't even know this guy!

- Hinata? Hahahahaha!!!
- Hahahaha!!! Dude, it's better to be alone at the dance than with her!
These words I was very freaked, but continued to keep control of himself.

- She's good! Leave her alone!

- Oh, and you're her protector?

- Shut up!

- What did you say?!

There was a fight, I at this moment ran to the librarian and told about what happened. She rushed there and sent the boys to the Director. 

- Hey. I am... I heard your dialogue. And me....

- Mmm... You... Hinata, did everyone hear that?

- Yeah. And me... I'm going to the dance with you! What does one call you?
- Shikamaru.

- That's a cool name!

In the evening of the same day, I talked with a friend on the phone and she told me to be myself and look good. To be honest, I didn't know what to look like; I started hustling and rushing back and forth, and then my mom helped me with the dress and makeup.

The next day, in the evening. I met him on the street. When he saw me, it was as if he froze; his mouth was open in surprise, he was all red.

- Are you okay? How I look?

- It's great! You look beautiful!

- Thank you! *flushed*
- Here. * gives flowers*

- Ah! * kissed me on the cheek*

- Heh... Thanks.

We joined hands and went to school. I've never felt like this before. So... Happy! When they saw us at school, I was embarrassed, but he was... He whispered in my ear, " don't be afraid. I'm close."and I clung to him tightly and smiled.

At the dance we danced together to relaxing music and it was the best moment of my life. I pressed my whole body to him; he danced so beautifully and it seemed to me that the light from the spotlight fell on us.

- Shikamaru... Tell me, why did you choose me? I'm boring.
- I like that about you. All girls try to be unique, and you are satisfied with what you are.

It touched my heart so much that I cried a little. He wiped away his tears and kissed me. I think Takagi-Chan, you don't need to explain how I felt. You've tried them before, right?

Then passed many years. During this time, we got close; we constantly supported each other, helped out, we had fun and we had fun. But then... Everything went wrong. When I found out that this man had no feelings for me! All this time, he just used me! I suspected it before, but I didn't attach much importance to it. However, after passing the exams, he just.. forget me. And when I tried to talk to him, he pushed me away and in front of almost all the students, he insulted me... hit me.

- You me need a was only for exam! That's all, sweetheart!

- But... But... I am... I thought...
- What you think? What I like to be with a loser? Nope. I won't!

- ....

... I was speechless. I just left. Didn't run. Not to cry. Didn't yell at him. Nothing. I just left. I took my briefcase, went to the door and went home. And the next day, I was expelled from school on my own. Then some more time passed. During this time, I stopped communicating with people and was more non-social. Then of course things got a little better when I went to study here, but with the men I have had problems. I hated that guy and I saw him in every man. But, Nishikata... He was different... He was very different from the other men. Takagi-Chan... I understand why you love him. But... give me a chance. At least feel those feelings again. Please!

<Hinata POV>

- *sigh* Yeah... Your story is really sore. Of, course i give you chance. 

- Thank you! Thank you very much!

Here's a little background about Hinata.
