She couldn't sleep, the moment she assured herself to fall asleep and closed her eyes she would ended up failing herself and her eyes would unintentionally open with a frown. The frown brought a headache and she gave up and slipped out of the bed ,wore her robe then walked down to the kitchen and took medicine she was too tired to go up and she really didn't want to go there so she just stood in the living room near the large window and stared out ,at the moon with no thoughts at all maybe there were thoughts she was thinking about but she didn't realized maybe those thoughts didn't matter that much. But it was him, only him who woke her up from her bed. Her bed wasn't warm like before it was strangely chilly not cold but chilly. She began to feel stranger at her house, in her bed and between his arms. Even though he didn't hold her she wasn't mad or sad. There was a small,tiny part of her which made her relieved. Hinata looked back to the moon. It was starting to hide behind those dark clouds and the light began to fade. The view was beautiful even though she knew that soon it would rain hinata loved it. She loved the rain she looked around her and she barely could see anything it was dark now and she found comfort in this darkness so she just laid in the couch and fell asleep.

Naruto walked in the dark street of konoha to the hokage's building. They were going to leave in hours. Naruto wasn't rushing it was still dark and early so he walked slowly lost in his thoughts ....in his life. His memories started to refresh and it was like his life was replaying in front of him. Then the same regrets climbed his chest why did he added more responsibilities to himself, He shouldn't have. The engagement was a step he should have thought about more.. He loved hinata, so much. But... It was like he held himself from continuing his path to the hokage and it slowed him and hinata too. After all she had done he tapped her in that house and slept out leaving her alone. He knows that wasn't the life she dreamt about, it wasn't the life he promised her he would spend but he couldn't there was something holding him back from everything. Naruto sighed he should have known that he wasn't ready for all this, his stomach hurt a little but as always he ignored it he didn't want to deal with anything else.

The coldness of the wind woke her up, the sky was beginning to change its color, hinata didn't know why she bothered to go up to her room....their room she knew she wouldn't find him he had left but still she did. A sighed escaped her mouth this wasn't going anywhere. She used to think that her Byakugan could read people's mind. The first person who came first used to be Naruto. But now, things changed ,she changed, her thoughts too. As she replayed that thought again Naruto didn't came instead the last uchiha's face came cold, emotionless and beautiful. The thought came suddenly to her head and shook her head after she gasped as if she had witnessed a crime. The thought was a crime to hyuga hinata. But no matter how many times she shook her head to make her thoughts about him go away, they were still there and she knew that after a minutes she would have to shake her head again. Hinata walked to the large window beside her bed she wrapped her robe around her before the wind his her body and she leaned on the window. Looking to sky, the village distracting herself by listening to the nature's sounds, but it it didn't last long there were another sound that made her open her eyes looking down and as soon as her eyes fell on the person she almost jumped but she turned quickly without closing the window and fastened her steps to the door holding into the remaining of herself control and finally she reached the door and without hesitation she opened it letting the wind blew her short hair she inhaled deeply and It felt refreshing when it's reached Her lungs and before she let her breath out she said "why did you come?" That wasn't what she intended to say but she was afraid that what she read in the book was true that whenever you think about someone they would know. She was afraid that he knew about her especially after those thoughts "I'm leaving after an hour" ah yeah, the mission... suddenly all her feelings minute ago faded and she looked down the thought of it made her a little bit uncomfortable why? She didn't know. "Ah I want to you to look for Naruto he is reckless you know" she laughed sheepishly, why couldn't she find something to say? It was as if she was hiding so truth from sasuke. Before she find the answer his steps raised her eyes, his outfit for mission had changed to more darker one and the headband wasn't there either "you changed it" he looked to his outfit and nodded looking up to her eyes before he noticed her hands that caught his shirt gently as if she was looking for the kind of fabric that held his body "this one suits you" she whispered only to his ears and sasuke found the courage to look to her bright eyes and something caught his attention she was a little too close. He didn't want to lose himself again he had done that mistake so many before and he didn't want to experience the feelings that came after..... But when she looked up Her eyes stared at his deep and sasuke didn't know if she enjoyed seeing him like that he wasn't enjoying at all. Finally sasuke thought she would step back but no... hinata hyuga decided to make it worse by resting her head on his chest over his heart and he held the air he had inside his lungs in attempt to make his heart stop bounding so loud it was embarrassing, the sound relaxed her, comforted her from her dark thoughts minutes ago. He was here, alive... breathing. Sasuke could feel her nails in his back as she held into. He stiffened against her. The feeling of her so close to him like that was foreign yet relaxing. As if she was spreading life inside his dead body, as if she was melting the ace that frozen his heart, as if she was giving him another hope for his life to be better, it was a false hope after all but he couldn't step back. He heard the deep breath that came out of her before she whispered to him still resting on his chest "promise me that you will be safe" He opened his mouth to say his promise but stopped, what if he couldn't keep his promise. He didn't want to return her favor and give her a false hope. His eyes fell on her head "I will promise you another thing" hinata looked up to him "Whether if I would be safe or not, if I would be injured or not I will come..." he couldn't continue his words he wanted so bad to say it for you. How easy it was but hard for him it was like saying No matter what happened to this world I'm coming to see you because I love you with everything in me. That was hard it was for sasuke. Hinata stepped back and looked at his face, his eyes as if she was memorizing them in her head. (Beautiful) was the only word which suited him. The faint light of the rising sun made his features clear to the eye and he was like a view she wanted to see every day. "Take care, sasuke-kun" and then he gathered all his power to turn and leave.

Shikamaru and Naruto stood at the gate of konoha. Waiting for the others to come so they could leave to their missions. "Tch, there is no one to say goodbye like yesterday" Naruto mumbled quietly. Of course Shikamaru heard but decided to not comment considering it a small talk with himself. The tapping sound made both male to look up to the third person who showed up. Sasuke he walked silently to them and nodded his head to the nara and walked passed "oi teme, where is Sakura-Chan and the other" sasuke shrugged and Naruto groaned "they're late" sasuke heard a sigh from behind him "No they aren't, it you who came earlier" sasuke's brows furrowed showing his confusion "since when?" Sasuke asked suddenly "what?" Naruto didn't know what sasuke was asking about "when it was still dark" Shikamaru answered instead and that made sasuke's frown deeper. He thought that he just left. That means he didn't say anything to the person at home, who shared his life. He could see the glare on the Nara's face they both had the same intention to punch Naruto for what he was doing to her ,for his neglecting towards her. "Good morning " all of them turned to behind them. Tenten and lee and choji came, Naruto raised his brow "did you guys met while coming here?" Lee answered "Me and choji met on the way here and we went to tenten's to make sure she wasn't late" Shikamaru sighed deeply "still sakura hasn't come too" Naruto walked To choji and stuffed his hand inside choji's chips "even if she was late kakashi probably won't come early" sasuke crinkled his nose at the sight it was early in the morning, choji was munching his chips and Naruto joined him. Didn't he see how choji was licking his fingers he rolled his eyes and walked away trying to avoid the group as he walked past Shikamaru he watched the man's brow furrowed. But he didn't care he just avoided them. Ignoring the sound of a tapping feet behind them. Naruto waved his hand "ooii sakura-chaa—" but he stopped and that made the group turned to her. They were all surprised by the way she looked. Dark bangs circled her eyes, pale face and her hair was messy. The way she walked, her expression, everything was a mess. Finally she reached them and walked to the gate. No one questioned her they just whispered few things then they were all silenced. Few minutes later Naruto yelled again with a different name. Sasuke noticed how her shoulders stiffened at the name "you're late!!" Naruto added to his screaming "sorry I got lost" Tenten smiled at his usual lie but Naruto didn't "che, liar" they all gathered around kakashi watched them around him but someone was missing he looked behind lee and he saw her back he sighed before he started " anyway this is an important mission try to work with the shinobi from the other village the sand shinobi will follow you after 4 hours do your best and come back safe" they all nodded their heads some were smirking and some were worried Kakashi let out a sigh before he walked towards her and when he reached he didn't know what to say to gain her attention "sakura-chan" he called her as he usually did he noticed how her shoulders jumped a little but still she didn't turn so he turned to them again "Haruno Sakura is the leader of this mission she gaped at him. This was her first time to lead a big group of them she regretted looking up to him. He had that smile behind his mask again "I trust you Sakura-Chan" a memory of what happened the night before flashed in front of her and she looked away with nodding her head "hai hokage-sama" the name she called tugged inside him but it was better than something else he nodded his head and watched them walk away. Kakashi heard the steps coming towards him from behind but didn't turn "something is bothering you" and kakashi let out the third sigh "Nothing Shikamaru, let's go back to work" and then walked back to his office.
