Perfect Two

chapter 15

Hinata layed on her bed as she closed her eyes. Her job was tiring especially what happened a while ago. She sighed. She needs to clear up her mind and take a shower.

She undressed herself and went to the tub. She relaxed for a bit and reminisced the things that happened just a while ago. She sunk herself a bit. The water level was the same as her mouth. There are things that bothered her a lot and that includes when she rejected Sasuke.

Sasuke is popular, handsome, rich and stoic. Most of the people respect him for his ability and skills. He is 23 and a general. Some officers think that he just became the general because of nepotism but he doesn't care what people tells him. Anyway he is used to it since he was a little boy. He saved her a lot of times and show her affection through teasing but Hinata somewhat find it gentle and romantic. Hinata thought that she should let Miro go and just forget him. He was only her childhood crush and It's time to just move on. She thought that she might give Sasuke a chance but she is worried that he might reject her since she denied him in the first place. She should give him a chance, he might be serious to her and he is such a prince charming type of a person, well a stoic prince charming type to be specific but he is who he is and being him alone makes her happy. Why waste a diamond for an old treasure?

She decided herself to give him a chance. She is happy that he is always there and when she saw him everytime, it feels like she have known him for years and it makes her heart flatter.

"Tomorrow, I should return his feelings the way he wanted me to." She told herself as she prepare for sleep.

"But if he rejects me, well....it is not his fault anyway." She sighed in defeat.

*dingdong*

His doorbell rang as he lie down to his bed kind of depressed. He lazily opened the door and was surprised of who he saw. It was Sakura.

"Hello Sasuke-kun, long time no see! I just came from the airport but I came to see you first." She hugged him tightly like she never saw him for centuries.

"Why did you visit?" He asked stoically as he cleared his eyes, rubbing it with his left hand.

"Why are you too harsh of your bestfriend?! Hmm...I guess I know how to hype you up tonight!" She said squealing like a malfunctioned microphone. It was annoying. Yes, she was her bestfriend together with Naruto who is also a general but in another base. Sakura is a model and an actress. Many courts her but he never know why she did not accept them. They were rejected by Sakura. True, Sakura is good-looking with a bubblegum colored hair but he was never attracted to her.

The sun has risen and Hinata went up for a shower. She admitted that she wanted to sleep more but there is no time to waste. Today is the day she planned to return Sasuke's feelings back. It is now or never. She dressed herself into her daily uniform and put some powder on his face. Yes you heard it right, powder. She never uses cosmetics and actually she does not know how to use one. She is naturally beautiful with her pale white skin, rosy cheeks and cherry like lips. She was blessed with it but did not find herself attractive.

She prepared two bentos. One for her and one for Sasuke. She prepared it with love and she was smiling like a fool while making it. She is just happy that the first bento she made for him was good. He accepted it like it was his first time to receive gifts. She smiled to remember his facial reactions on that day when he received it. She could give bentos to him everyday to see him smile like that. It is rare to see him smile since all he do is being stoic and poker but still is a very, very good-looking person.

She went so early to the base and prepared her explanations to him. Her heart was beating so fast. She should look calm and be calm because once she is rattled, she stutters, like a lot.

"Breath in, breath out. Calm down Hina, you can do this. Here we go." She went to his office but every step she takes felt like she runs out of oxygen. Her heart beats are too fast like a running person.

She knocked to his door slightly. She felt herself shivering even if it was a hot day. She felt like she has a fever on going. The door opened as she saw his face.

"What are you doing here?" He said in monotonous. His face was stoic like when he is talking to other people. He was too serious that Hinata felt uncomfortable.

"Who is that Sasuke-kun?" Sakura showed herself to Hinata and was shocked to her view. Hinata was flawless like a real greek goddess of heavens. Sakura literally envied her for her physique.

"Oh, Hi! I am Sakura. Nice meeting you..."

"Hinata, Hinata Hyuga."

"I am going to ask you again, what are you doing here?" He said with no facial expression. Hinata had mixed feelings.

"Welp, I am leaving you both to talk." Sakura said as she kissed Sasuke on his cheeks. Sasuke was a little bit shocked but ignored it. Sakura exited the scene as Hinata felt her face warm.

"Uhh, I just want you to have this bento for.....b-being a  g-good general and I should greet you a happy marriage." She lied and faked a smile. She felt like she was stabbed by millions of needles and knives. She thought that he was serious about it. He looked serious yesterday but now he found another one to replace. Maybe all along I was just played by him and I hate the fact that I fell for it. I thought I was strong enough to handle this but it turns out I am wrong. She told herself. She left the place and handed him the bento she made. She cried.
