Sasuke didn't know, why such words hurt him.
Not a little, but too much.
Was it because of her look, when she said it, or was her eyes that held too much sorrow or longing.
Longing for love..a kind of love that seemed to be lost, in the process.
He doesn't know the exact thing that happened between his alternative self and hinata.
But it seemed to be something major.
But the way she said it, touched him, so deeply.
As if he was somehow, awkwardly connected to her.
A connection he lied when he told his daughter about..
But this connection is different, a connection of feelings that made him feel so much uncomfortable when he saw those sorrowful eyes, this hinata, he feel so much connected, and why.
He doesn't know.
The way she reacted so swift, the way she 'seemed' to know so much about the uchiha..touched something.
Something he long lost..emotions.
Sasuke looked as she walked out and closed the door.
Sasuke followed her, shortly, he entered the room where naruto, shikamaru, sakura and Ino were there.
He saw as hinata sat down, her face a little damp, she was sweating a little.
He felt 'almost' worried.
For sasuke, almost is nothing, but he felt..in the end.
He furrowed his eye brows when naruto looked at him, then turned to hinata.
"Hinata chan, daijoubu?" Naruto asked, as he felt his, well lets say, not his real best friend, seemed a little worried.
"H..hai.." hinata tried to manage hiding the pain but nodded and smiled regardless.
"The..ah..baby..is just kicking" hinata said between winces.
Sasuke looked at hinata, he was somehow feeling dizzy, due to his fever.
"Hinata, i guess you should go back home, ne?" Sakura retorted as she felt worried.
"No..its fine, sasuke san is a little feverish..i guess we'd stay here for tonight..ne sasuke san?" Hinata said as she looked at sasuke.
Sasuke was taken aback by such words.
Even though she was sweating so much, yet she was so kind and thoughtful about his 'fever' though those two pain threshold are so much different.
Sasuke sighed and went over, he sat down by her.
"Okay, i guess we should go by now." Naruto said.
Sasuke looked at naruto then said.
"I need to go back..naruto" he said.
"We will find a way, sasuke, by tomorrow..now rest" shikamaru retorted and they all took off.

Sasuke looked at hinata, as she was twiddling her fingers, he didn't know why he was feeling so much guilty, by saying he needed to go back, he felt that he'd hurt her with those words, was he even allowed to feel guilty towards hinata? Like shouldn't he be having another wife! He never regretted being away from her, yet here he is, feeling so much guilty, and why? For some mere words he just said? Why was she making him feel so guilty?
Was it because how gentle she was? That made your human instinct act on its own accord?
"Its fine, sasuke san..you don't need to be guilty" hinata cut his train of thoughts as if she could read sasuke or hear his inner mind.
In the end, hinata knew him so much, since orochimaru kidnapped her.
She knows sasuke so well, and he is technically the same person right.
She looked at him with sorrowful eyes full of tears.
"Its fine..." she smiled.
Sasuke sighed and nodded.
He then just tilted his head a little to the back, and he was so tired, he remembered nothing but black, as he closed his eyes slowly.
Only hearing the echoes of her voice.
"The pills are doing it..."

Hinata was humming and caressing her bump.
The child has been kicking so much lately.
She always heard that your fetus can hear your voice, so she hummed.
However, her hums stopped when suddenly she felt a head dropped on her shoulder.
Hinata's eyes widened and then softened as she knew it was the uchiha. She smiled a little.
Hinata heard sasuke whimpers when she stopped humming so she hummed again.
She looked at him by activating her byakugan, and she saw how sasuke's eye brows were furrowed.
His eyes were moving rapidly.
She knew instantly, he is having a nightmare.
Hinata slowly caressed his face with her palms and murmured lowly.
Soon, his crumbled face turned to a little comfort expression.
He rotated his head a little, and murmured.
"Oka-chan" hinata heard and contained her giggles.
It all came back to her like a deja vu.
Suddenly, sasuke dropped his head on her lap, hinata smiled and started stroking his silky raven hair.
"Just, why and how did you come here" she said softly as she remembered her old sasuke, whom she loved when she was kidnapped by orochimaru.
"Umm..oka chan" he murmured again.
Hinata started humming until she slept.
