She's My Everything

10

"Papa, I want you to help me" said Himawari while carrying a small notebook. I looked at her with curiosity.

"What is it dattebayo?" I said as I picked up the notebook and started reading it.

"We're making a small play at school and I want to audition to play the princess!" She said excited. "We're making the Cinderella story!"

"Wait....you want to play the princess so you could dance and be kissed by the prince? Forget it! I'm not helping you!" I said while crossing my arms. Himawari's not dancing with anyone or being kissed by a little wimpy kid. I refuse!

"Please daddy! I want to do it besides, there's this girl at school that says...." she trailed off while lowering her head.

"Says what?"

"She says that I'm too ugly to play the princess. That I should be one of the step sisters that ends up being alone their whole lives." She said while looking at me with determination as she hold her tears. "And I want to prove her wrong!"

I stared at her for a while and without noticing, something came up to me and remembered the time Hinata was bullied at school...

*Flashback*

"P-please, you don't have to do this..." A young dark haired girl said in fear as a group of girls kept bullying her.

"Ah yes you do. Look Hinata, we all know that you're a failure as a woman so why would you bother to become better? Nobody will love you as you are." Said one of the girls while the others laughed.

"B-but.." the Hyuga tried to say.

"No buts, you tried to steal the money from the council room for us and failed. Why? Because you're too weak. In order to enter the cheerleading group you had to do that to initiate yourself. And you didn't do it so, now it's time for your punishment. Take off your clothes."

The Hyuga looked at them in shock. "E-eeh?"

"You heard us. Take off your clothes and wear this during lunch time around school." Hinata took the small paper with tears in her eyes. She was supposed to go around naked with a paper that said.

I failed the cheerleading initiation test. Now I'm a whore.

"I....I refuse!" Hinata said with courage as she remembered the humiliations she sufferedat her home. "I won't  do this. It's not worth it."

But the three girls managed to surround her with angry looks.

"If you won't do it by yourself then we will. Girls!" The leader said while the others proceeded to drag her away to make the Hyuga do the punishment. Hinata screamed and tried to defend herself, afraid of what was about to come. She was crying and her body was trembling.

"Hey! What are you doing dattebayo?!" I said. "I heard the screams and-"

I was shocked to see what they were going to do with Hinata. I immediately knew what these three girls were about to do. "Leave her alone Suki!"

"Why? Don't you want to see your little girlfriend naked for a whole day?" She replied while the others smiled evilly.

"N-Naruto-kun!" Hinata said while turning her head away in embarrassment. I managed to push Suki away so hard that her back slammed against the wall, making her scream in pain.

"Hey! What are you-" the other girl stood up to me but in a few seconds I pushed her to the other side of the room. The remaining girl looked scared and made the right choice to let the Hyuga go.

"What's all that noise?!" Sakura said, as she, Ino and Tenten rushed to the room.

"S-Suki?!?" Ino said in shock as she saw her three cheerleader comrades on the floor. "Naruto what's going on?"

"These three whores tried to humiliate Hinata by making her walk around naked with this." He said in anger as he handed her the paper. The Yamanaka read the paper and looked at them.

"How dare you?!?!" She said as Sakura took the paper and read it too.

"What's the matter? Hinata wanted to be a cheerleader just like you so we were helping her." Suki said as Ino got angrier.

"This wasn't the initiation test you liars! Are you out of your minds?!? You know what, that's it. I'll make sure you'll get expelled from the team." She said.

"You can't expell your own captain from the team!"

"But the principal can" Ino replied whike winking to Suki. Sakura was in shock the whole time and finally exploded.

"Cha!! You tried to do this to Hinata you dumb fuckers!?! I'll show you how to respect people!"

"I'll like to see you try flat chest" the other girl said.

"Hey! Don't talk to her like that" Tenten said.

"Oh, I'm sorry I bet you're telling rich Hyuga boy to about this right damselin distress?"

"Oh, it's on!" Tenten said while punching the girl in the face and soon there was a whole fight between the six girls. I ignored all of this while looking at Hinata who was trying to cover herself while her tears rolled her face.

I kneeled in front of her and took off my jacket. Hinata stood frozen and watched how I covered her gently. "Why you wanted to enter the group anyway?"

"I-I want to prove myself. To feel like I am more than just a...a Bookworm... They say I'm too weak for this and....I....I wanted to prove them wrong.."

I hugged her tightly, making her blush. "You don't have to prove yourself to anyone Hinata. You're perfect just the way you are dattebayo!"

*End of Flashback*

"Dad? Daaaad? Daddy!!" Himawari said, making me go back to reality.

Hinata...

"Ah, uh...what?" I said in confusion.

"Will you help me prove them wrong or not?" She said as I hugged her tightly. She stood frozen for a while and then returned the hug.

"You don't have to prove yourself to anyone Hima. You're perfect just the way you are dattebayo!" I said.

"Dad...you're...crushing me" she replied as I released her.

"Sorry hehe" I said with a grin. "I just got carried away. You know what? I'll help you BUT you have to remember what I just told you okay?"

"The thing about proving myself?" She asked while I nodded at her. Then she smiled. "Okay!"

"Good! Now let's start!" I said.
