Chapter 14: A Rude Awakening

⚠(Warning: Another Trigger Chapter)⚠

Monday Morning
Hinata's P.O.V

I sighed as I fixed my burgundy cardigan on my arms, a black blouse underneath it while I wore white dress pants with black heels to complete my work look..

I looked back at Naruto who still laid unconscious on the bed we shared.

A day in a half has passed and he's still.. unconscious.

This, is just insane.

I shook my head but looked up when I saw my door open slightly revealing Ray, his brown eyes peeking inside..

"Everything okay?" He asked and I nodded, sighing in extreme sadness.

"Yes.. Same thing. He's out of it still. I don't even want to go to work and he's.. like this." I whimpered out and shook my head, bowing it low.

Ray sighed and opened the door wide, soon after stepping in "I know Hinata. But all we can do now is wait. Sitting around isn't going to help you. It'll only hurt you more. I'll take Noah to school to give you a break." He said quite kindly and nodded at me, looking back at Naruto.

I nodded slowly but Ray's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, his eyes narrowing too.

"The hell?" He whispered and I looked back at Naruto who was now groaning and grunting, his eyebrows scrunched up as if he was in pain..

Like he was fighting something...

I gasped at the sound of his voice.. I hadn't even heard it in days.

I ran to him quickly and inspected him, his body moving away from the blanket, his eyes still closed though.

And only grunts and groans were made from him which worried the both of us.

"Naruto.. What's wrong?" I asked, knowing full well I wouldn't get an answer back.

He kept moving around slowly, Ray gradually walking up closer "What the hell is happening?" He asked in confusion on which I shrugged, my eyes saddening.

"I have no idea. I-I think the medicine isn't cooperating with his body. I think.. He's reacting irregularly." I whispered out in panic, my eyes widening when he started to full blown hop on the bed.. His body moving on it's on.

Ray cursed and ran closer to him, staring at him in shock "He's having a fucking seizure! What the fuck do we do?" He yelled and I skimmed my brain on ways to settle this, tears forming in my eyes at the predicament my lover was going through.

"St-Stay calm Ray. I-I know what to do." I said and lightly grabbed his flopping body and pushed him to his side, the blankets falling off of him.

His body still shook in ways a normal person would never successfully do but his breathing became better.

Ray stared at the scene and gulped, eyeing me as I just stilled beside Naruto.. "N-Now what?" He screeched and I shook my head, staring down at Naruto worriedly.

"We wait. We have to give it time. It may stop. If it doesn't we have to call Tsunade." I explained and he nodded, we both staring at Naruto as he shook violently.

After a few more seconds of that he stopped, his head falling back down on the pillows.

I gasped and turned him over quickly, placing my head down on his chest.

Ray bit his lip in worry, his eyes staring down at me as I tried to find a heartbeat.

It took a few seconds but his heartbeat started to grow louder and faster, just the way it should.

I blew out a sigh of relief and stood up, rubbing his chest softly "He's fine now. I-I just.. want to stay with him." I whispered but Ray shook his head, grabbing my shoulder gently.

"No.. You need some time away. Leo, will be on the lookout for him.. And Tsunade's close by. He'll be fine Hinata." Ray said and turnt me around, staring into my eyes intently.

I sniffed back my tears and sighed "F-F-Fine." I whispered out and turned and stared back at Naruto who laid still now, his chest rising and falling and his eyes closed shut like before.

"Okay." I whispered again and we both turned and walked away, walking down the stairs silently and entering into the kitchen where Noah and Kurenai was sitting, Ino and Tsunade upstairs.

Leo came out of his room and looked at us, Ray nodding his head upstairs on which Leo nodded to, knowing exactly what to do.

He then without saying another word, turned and went upstairs to my room to look over Naruto.

I watched him go but then turned back to Noah who sadly ate his cereal, his demeanor very different from his usual hyperactive self.

"Good morning Noah." I said softly and he looked up, smiling weakly at me, his blue eyes holding bangs under them..

"Morning mom. Is it time to go?" He asked but Ray nodded, sparing me a glance.

"Sorry bud. But I'll be the one to take you to school today." He insisted on which Noah nodded, turning back to eat the rest of his soggy cereal.

"Okay... Is dad okay now?" He added on, which I looked at Ray, his eyes staring worriedly back into mines, matching my worried ones but I looked back at Noah and smiled, coming up with a quick lie for him.

"Of course, Noah. Daddy's strong. He'll get through this. He always do." I said sincerely bringing a relieved smile on his face, his mood lighting up a bit.

"Y-You're right, Mom.. I didn't know what I was thinking." He said through a sigh, Kurenai looking back at us sadly.

She then looked up at me and frowned "I'm so sorry this happened, Hinata. I shouldn't have hated him so much.." She apologized on which I shook my head, stepping up to grab my purse on the kitchen table.

I slung it on my shoulders and sighed, shaking my violent head "It's okay to hate.. Kurenai. You had every right to.. But I just fear that, we'll all, hate Naruto again, now." I whispered out as tears formed in my eyes, my mind referring back to when Naruto use to rape me...

Embarrass me..

Abuse, me...

I could slighty tolerate it then but now.. I don't think I could experience all of that again..

Not a second time.

Kurenai frowned once more but didn't say anything, Noah's eyes widening.

He shook his head and stood up, grabbing his backpack from his chair. "I'm, ready to go now." He said shakily and stepped up to Ray who nodded, turning and nodding at me.

"You take care, okay. We'll let you know if anything happens." He spoke and I nodded sadly, turning away from him.

He frowned at that but then nodded down at Noah, his brown eyes staring down into his light blue ones "Well.. Let's go buddy." He sighed out and with that they both walked away, towards the front door on which they exited, leaving out all together.

I stood there in silence, tears slowly rolling down my cheeks now.

I miss him.

I miss him already.

But, he secretly knew this would happen. But it wasn't supposed to be.

We were supposed to be finally happy.

We were finally, back together..

And then, this.

I sobbed and covered my eyes with my hands, Kurenai gasping at that.

"Oh Hinata. It's okay. It's gonna be alright." She exclaimed and got up, coming over to wrap her arms around me.

I cried into her chest as my emotions and thoughts ran wild, my purse dropping from my arms.

Kurenai shushed me and ran her hand down my hair, slightly calming me down.

But nothing, could calm me down now..

Now that Naruto's, gone..

My, Naruto...

A Few Hours Later

I finally arrived at work and checked in, my eyes dull and puffy from my crying.

I sniffed and walked to my desk, my eyes trailing it to check if anything was missing.

Nope.. Everything was just the same but..

My eyes narrowed and I walked around my desk and grabbed a folded letter that was lying alone on the top of my desk.

I stared at it in surprise and slowly sat down in my rolling chair, unfolding it and reading it carefully.
My eyes widen when I saw it was from, Kiba.

Hi Hinata. If you're reading this then I highly appreciate it. I just wanted to apologize for Wednesday.. I'm really sorry for forcing myself on you. I didn't know what I was thinking. I hope I didn't scare you off. If you want to just be friends.. Then we can. I'll accept anything..

From, Your best friend Kiba..

I gasped as I read the extra sloppy note but a smile crept on my face, my hands placing down the letter.

I almost forgot about Kiba.. With all of my other problems with Naruto, I forgot about the things that occured here at work.

I shook my head and set the note aside and started to get to work..

Answering phone calls, entering information about my sick patients, all that stuff.

I kept doing that until my phone rang again, slightly scaring me.

I set the computer mouse down and grabbed the phone, placing it up to my ear..

Me- Hello?

Boss- Hinata.. I need you in my office, Now!

After he said those words he hung up, leaving me speechless and confused.

I gulped and placed the phone back down on the hook and slowly got up.

My legs shook so badly from fear...

I totally forgot about him too..

Oh no.

Who knows what Naruto could've said to him.

I blew out a quick breath before slowly exiting from my desk and walking down the white hall, watching out for other doctors or nurses who were still on duty.

I walked up to the elevators and clicked the button to go up, my bosses office on floor 5.

I waited patiently until the elevator came down to my floor, the doors soon opening revealing emptiness.

I smiled faintly and crept in, turning around and clicking the button that said five.

I looked straight ahead as the doors closed, my heart thumping wildly in my chest.

I stood there in silence as the elevator started to take me up, my thoughts churning.

What if he lectures me..

What if he tries to bring me down?

Naruto's not here so, what am I going to do?

I shook my head but then lowered it, sighing from all the tension I caused around me.

I need to calm down.. I'm stressing myself out to much.

I mean, he was quite angry on the phone but what if he's not even angry at me?

What if someone else got him angry before he called me?

What if he just needs an errand done?

I need to stop worrying so much. I'm such an expert at it, now I just don't know how to quit doing it.

As on cue the doors opened making me sigh "Well, here goes." I whispered and stepped out, walking down a little further up the hall and stepped up to two wooden doors, my heart racing even more.

I blew out another breath before knocking on the door, a gulp passing through my throat.

I waited a bit but then a loud and husky voice came out, shaking me to the core.

"Who is it?" He yelled and I sighed, stepping back some from the doors, the action giving me a little confidence.

"It's Hinata, Hyuga sir. You called me?" I asked worriedly through the door on which he simply chuckled.

"Oh, well come on in then." He instructed from the inside on which I sighed once more, soon pushing the doors open to be greeted with.. My boss.

The man that's making my life here at work..

Miserable...

I stared back at him as I crept in, his stone cold eyes on me..

It didn't scare me as much as Naruto's though.

He was a middle aged man, older than Naruto.. He had brown straight hair that laid down on his head, his face a bit wrinkled and he had a brown mustache below his nose, his body a bit bulky from where he sat.

"Y-Yes, Jefferson?" I asked worriedly and he stared at me, his eyes trailing my body but he then raised his hand to the two chairs that was in front of his desk, his hand pointing at them.

"Sit." He demanded and I nodded, walking slowly to one of the chairs and sitting down.

"Am I.. In trouble?" I asked and he chuckled, holding his chest, a black tux on his being.

"Of course you are Hinata. Why the hell else would you be in here?" He asked, his voice raising a tad bit making me flinch.

I whimpered but stood my ground, forcing myself to look into his enraged brown eyes "What for? I did everything I was supposed to. What possibly could I have done wrong?" I asked with a shake of my head, his eyes narrowing.

He scoffed and leaned forward towards me some, trying to intimidate me.. "Listen, Hinata.. There's no reason for you to act bitchy about this. You know exactly what I'm talking about. Two mornings ago I got a call from your so called boyfriend about you. He ever told you what I told him?" He spat coldly making me gulp, my body tensing up greatly..

"Wh-What do you mean? H-He never told me anything." I whispered out on which he shook his head, my words pissing him off more.

"Oh really? Well, let me inform you, Hinata. I told him.. If you don't come in the days you were supposed to.. Then, I was going to fire you. It's not the first time I threatened you on that right? Your whole existence pisses me off. I, don't like you and your presence here is hanging by a thread. And the two days you were out finally cut it. Do you understand, what I'm saying?" He said deadly making my eyes widen, tears forming in my eyes at his harsh, stinging words..

"Wh-What? You're going to fire me?" I whimpered out, as tears slowly poured down my cheeks, a small smile forming on his lips.

He then all of a sudden laughed, throwing his head back and laughing at my misery "Oh, just save me the tears. You knew it was coming sooner or later." He commented on which I sniffed, turning away from him, using my hair to cover my hurt expression.

My heart felt so heavy in my chest and it was so hard to even breathe.. I felt miserable..

I croaked.. "B-But I worked so hard for this job.. I went to college and I, did what I supposed to. Please, don't do this." I whispered out and closed my eyes, silently wishing this nightmare would end.

No way can I leave this job.. I love what I do.

I love helping my patients. I love meeting new people and just.. getting away from my past.

But no.. I can't find happiness...

I always have to remind myself that now. The world is just too cruel for me.

Jefferson smirked and waved his hand at me, simply waving me off "I said what I said.. You're fired. Now get the hell out of my office. Or, I just might call your coworkers to do it. Just try not to woo them.. slut." He snorted out but whispered out the last part making my heart shatter, my eyes tearing up even more.

I stood up but then narrowed my eyes at him, tears rolling down my face "Y-You won't get away with this. You'll regret this." I threatened with a defiant look in my eyes, his finger tapping at his desk impatiently.

He leaned back in his seat and gave me one more glance before looking away, ignoring my whole presence entirely.

I gasped and backed away, my eyes widening.

He's really, firing me. And, I can't do anything about it..

I sniffed back my tears and with that left, running out of his office and down the hall, crying..

People from everyone stared at me sadly as I made my way to the elevator, pressing the button nonstop..

I can't, believe, that this happened.

I waited silently as the elevator came up to the floor I was on, the doors soon opening.

I looked up and saw.. Kiba.

He stared wide-eyed at me, his mouth dropped wide open "Wh-What the hell happened?" He asked and I stepped in, his hand holding the door open for me.

I shook my head and stepped in the corner of the elevator, my hand covering my mouth as I sobbed, totally ignoring his presence for now..

Kiba sighed and pushed the the button for the firsr floor, the doors closing back shut.

Kiba then looked at me as I cried silently to myself, just refusing to talk to him..

But how could I?

I can't afford to talk to anyone right now.

I need Naruto back.. Badly.

He frowned as I continued to cry, his heart breaking at the display I caused "Please Hinata. I won't know unless you tell me. What's going on?" He asked sincerely on which I sniffed back my tears, turning towards him, finally telling him what happened.

"J-Jefferson.. Fired me. I can't come back here anymore." I whispered out shakily, his eyes widening even more at my words.

His mouth shot wide open and he stared back at me in utter disbelief "Wh-Why? But, you're the best working gal here." He said with a nervous chuckle, trying to cheer me up but I shook my head, turning away from him.

"H-He doesn't like me. I don't know what it is.. Maybe it was a good thing he fired me. I wasn't happy here anyway." I whispered as a way to cover up the real truth..

About what Naruto did...

Kiba frowned and tilted his head, nudging my raised hand playfully "Ahh, Come on. You don't mean that. You loved this job. How about I talk with your boss and get him to rehire you.. It shouldn't be too hard, right." He said and smiled brightly at me but I sighed, just struggling carelessly, not really caring anymore..

"I guess.. You can give it a try, I won't stop you, Kiba." I whispered out once more, the elevator, finally coming to a stop.

The doors open and I shot Kiba one last smile, a smile on his face as well.

"I'll keep in touch with you, Hinata. And keep.. What you think about the letter to yourself. I just wanted to let you know, is all." He said and winked at me, exiting the elevator, leaving me alone again.

I smiled at the heartwarming conversation I had with him, my heart once again lighting up.

Kiba's... actually nice to me.

He not seeking out for my body or talking bad about me.

He really wants to be my friend.

I sighed happily at that and walked out to my desk, my mind reeling in all the things I need to pack up.. Seeing as this, will be my last.. and final stay here..

Unless Kiba comes up with something and that I already know will be.. an absolute fail...

Noah's P.O.V

I walked beside my classmates as we slowly made our way to the restrooms, I'm sorta trailing behind. Zoey and Daniel was some steps ahead of me.

I sighed in sadness as I thought back to my Dad who was still out cold.

It's only been a little while and now He's.. just away again..

Well.. Mentally away.

But still..

I shook my head at my thoughts, pushing them to the back of my mind for now.

But when I did that, a hand suddenly grabbed ahold of my green and black jacket, pushing me roughly against the stone white wall behind me.

I grunted and stared up at the person who caused me such pain, my eyes widening...

It was.. my bullies.

Three boys stood all around me, grinning mischievously back at me "Well well, Fish face. Looks like we've got you all alone now." One of them spat while the other ones giggled at what he called me.

I growled and tried to push myself up but he slammed me back on the wall, growling losly at me "I didn't tell you to go anywhere. You, are nobody and you'll always be nobody, Got that?" He shouted while the other boy on the right smirked.

"Now say it, you dweeb." He shouted and threw a punch at my jaw, the other kid throwing me down to my knees.

I whimpered and stared down at the floor, tears running down my cheeks as they all hovered over me, giving me no choice but to say it..

"I-I'm.. a nobody." I whispered out and they chuckled, bending down towards me more so they could hear me more clearly..

"What? What was that? Oh and how about your mom? Isn't she a slut? Wouldn't you agree, that she is?" He spat out making my eyes widen, his dirty words confusing me.

Why the heck is he telling me to say any of this?

Usually they'll just, mess with me and leave me alone. How does he know all of this stuff, anyway?

I gulped but shook my head, my eyes narrowing angrily at his insulting words.

"Back off. She's not what you say she is. You don't know the full story, so how about you just stay out of it!" I yelled and hopped up to my feet, eyeing all three boys intently.

A new feeling crept up inside of me but I ignored it..

It was dark..

A dark feeling that I had no clue how to react to.

They growled at my new found courage and they all grabbed my arms, pushing me back on the wall but I stood my ground..

But before they could punch me, Zoey and Daniel came running up, pushing them all back.

Daniel hissed and stood in front of me, eyeing the three of them with a deadly look..

"You punks again. Didn't we settle this last time?" He asked as Zoey inspected me, touching my bruised face with care.

She frowned deeply at the sight, her hands warming me up "I'm so sorry, this is happening to you Noah. You, don't deserve it." She whispered to me and placed her head on my chest, a small blush glowing on my cheeks at her close distance to me.

But I just nodded, thanking them greatly for coming "It's okay, Zoey. I'm so glad you two are here." I exclaimed and Daniel smiled back at me, turning to face the three cowards in front of us.

They scoffed but then just flicked us off, my blue eyes narrowing at that.

"Whatever, nerds." One of them spat and walked away, catching up with the others.

I watched them go and sighed, pushing myself off of the wall to peer at my friends, their eyes on me "You, okay Noah?" Daniel asked and turned around to face me, his brown hair covering his brown eyes slightly, a concerned frown on his face.

I nodded and sent a small smile his way, careful not to move my face so much "Yes, I'm okay. I was just caught up with.. other things. I trailed off and Zoey frowned, tilting her head at me.

But before she could ask me about it, our teacher turned to us from where she led, down the hall, eyeing us left behind..

"Zoey, Noah and Daniel.. Keep up please!" She yelled and we nodded, turning and running up the hall towards them, rejoining them once again.

I lowered my head as I ran, my mind going back to that feeling I felt.

I felt so.. Powerful.

Like I could do anything, but it also felt evil.. Like I was an evil super villain hiding in the shadows.

Woah.. What, the heck, was that?

Hinata's P.O.V

I drove slowly into the lot of my home, parking beside the garage on the newly, cut green grass.

I sighed in sadness and, in exhaustion but aoon grabbed my keys from the ignition, slumping down in my seat..

Now, I have no job and.. No fiance.

What else can I lose?

I shook my head and sniffed back my tears and excited my car, slamming the door back closed.

I sighed and began to walk towards the front entrance, holding onto my purse tightly, different things I kept at work stashed away inside.

It took me over 30 minutes trying to load my stuff out of there, getting my desk all nice and clean.

It's a shame too. I didn't want to do all of that but.. I had to.

I had no choice.

I sighed and walked up to the door and quickly unlocked it with my keys, pushing the door open.

I walked in the poorly lit living room, the aura around me calm.

Leo, Ray and Stefan must be asleep still.

Wow.. How lazy of them.

Well.. It is only 1:30.

I closed the door back shut and slowly made my way upstairs to my room to undress and, to check up on Naruto.

I walked slowly and quietly up to my room, making sure to not make too much noise with my heels.

I kept walking up until I got to the last step, stepping up and walking towards my room which was closed shut.

I smiled faintly and opened it, entering inside and saw Naruto still sleeping, his eyes closed but his clothes, were different.

He wore a grey, long sleeve shirt with black jeans, the blanket covering his body slightly.

I frowned and closed the door back, quickly getting to work on changing.

I undressed quickly, until I got to my underclothes. I then walked up to my dresser, placing my clothes there but grabbing up a lavender gown.

I sighed once more and placed it on over my underclothes, pulling it down low.

I looked up and stared at the mirror at myself, tears still staining my cheeks.

I didn't really like what I saw..

The crying, helpless Hinata.. I grew to not like her so much..

I shook my head and turned away from the mirror, looking back at Naruto now.

He breathed softly in his sleep, his face still nonchalant as ever.. It looked like he was dead, but.. His chest was moving slowly, indicating he wasn't..

He was well alive..

God.. I hated, seeing him like that.

I whimpered quietly and walked up to him, soon taking a seat on the bed beside him. "Oh Naruto.. I miss you so, so much. Things aren't going right and I.. I need your attention." I finally said, knowing full well he didn't hear me but.. I just wanted to talk to him.

I ran my hand up and ran it through his blonde hair, uncovering his bang from his closed eyes, his body still as ever..

I stared at him sadly and sighed, deciding to just let me feelings out a bit..

He can't hear me so..

I bit my lip "I-I, got fired today, Naruto. I know it's a little hard to believe but... It was because of my Boss. He hates me... But, I guess it's for the best.. I just hope, Noah had a good day today at school. He was meaning to tell you.. That he has bullies there. I talked with his teacher but.. You know kids, are persistent.." I said with a nervous laugh, my eyes trialing away from him.

But a grunt from him made me snap my head back at him, his body tensing up and his eyes scrunching up tightly, his fists clenched against the bed.

My eyes widen and I slowly hovered over him, inspecting his body more closely, my lavender eyes squinted in worry "N-Naruto.. A-Are you okay?" I asked quietly, my eyebrows knitted together in worry.

But before I could say anything else, a large hand suddenly grabbed ahold of my throat, my air immediately shutting off.

I stared wide eyed as a dark smirk slowly formed on Naruto's face, his eyes still closed as he laid on the bed.

My breathing increased as I felt my air supply start to run out, my hand coming up to try to pry his hand off of my throat.. But it was no use..

My mouth soon flew open when Naruto sat up slowly, his eyes still closed but his body.. moving.

He sat up straight, everything about him done slowly. his hair falling over his closed eyes.

I stared in shock as he then slowly opened his eyes, his dark blue eyes adjusting to the world around him.

He stared around deadly slow, his aura completely different from before which, scared me.

I gasped and raised my hand, patting his, which was still wrapped around my neck like a vise.

"Naruto.. A-Are you alright?" I whispered out, his head turning to face me now.

His eyes narrowed and the same dark smirk was present on his lips, his tongue sliding against his lips at the sight of me..

"Oh.. never, better, Hun.. But not, so much, for you..."

***

A.N..

Um.. I don't know how to end it!! Lol!
