Sasuke was beyond pissed.

In front of him were his two annoying fangirls; Ino and Sakura fighting over him. It was like they could murder each other just to hold his hands and stopping them from doing that was Naruto.

He was in between them trying to stop them but he was the one getting slapped and hit when they both were to hit each other. It was better to get hit instead of letting them hit; he didn't want to witnessed one more war.

And this one would be more dangerous; it was for love after all.

And as for Shikamaru and Choji, they both were beside him talking about some crap that Sasuke didn't pay attention to. It's not like he want to. The only word he heard was Shikamaru favorite word 'Troublesome.'

Looks like none of his friends have matured in all these years. As always, they were loud and annoying.

He sighed inwardly he didn't even know why they were in the Konoha gates; he thought he was getting some fresh air when Naruto told him that he have take permission from Tsunade to take him outside. It was only for today though.

But well he was here dealing with a bunch of idiots.

Sasuke actually preferred being in that close room where he was being kept at surveillance instead to be here. At least that room was quiet and he could sleep.

He turned around to leave to go to somewhere quiet where he could train or sleep. He wouldn't miss this chance to train right? after this day he wouldn't get to train or get freedom to do anything for two more weeks by the way.

Before he could take a step someone tap his shoulder and without looking he could tell who it was. He let out a annoyed growl, looks like Naruto wouldn't let him be at peace.

"Oi, Sasuke where were are you going" Naruto asked as the Uchiha turned around to face him with a death glare and he grinned as a reply for his glare.

"I preferred training instead to be here standing with no clue of why i am even here" He replied in his cold ice tone with a hint of annoyance.

But Naruto really didn't mind his tone though; he didn't even remember any time when his best friend and rival was not annoyed.

"What do you mean, Teme!! don't you know why are we here"

Sasuke sighed one more time as he replied with his favorite word, "Hn"

"Did i forget to tell you" Naruto asked tilting his head to the side.

"Hn"

Naruto gave him an apologetic smile before grinning once again, he really was too much cheerful and annoying for someone cold as Sasuke. The Uchiha really hate that day when he admit Naruto was his freaking best friend.

"We are here waiting for Kiba, Hinata and Shino, Sasuke. They would be back any time from their mission now, you know they were gone for a week" Naruto explained rubbing the back of his neck and before hearing Sasuke next reply he left, once again trying to stop the two girls from fighting.

Naruto was just gone for a minute and they both were trying to murder each other again. And for the first time in his life Naruto feel like killing himself.

Hinata Hyuga huh!

Sasuke thought as a smirk itself crossed his lips. He still remember that Hyuga girl who tried to stop him from leaving the village just like Sakura did but failed. She was the one who kept coming in his nightmares making him remember her all the time about her kindness, softness and gentleness.

He still remember his every small interactions with the Hyuga girl. Of when she help him in the forest, of when he caught her from falling in front of their teams and of when she tried to stop him.

He still remember the determination in her eyes when she took her fighting stance to fight him in order to stop him from leaving the village.

She was the one of why he spent countless sleepless nights thinking of. It even surprise Sasuke knowing that he remember everything if it's related to her.

"Look they are here"

Ino's loud cheerful gaze snapped him out of his daze as he followed his friend gazes to where three figures were appearing and running towards them. Towards the Konoha gates.

Than his eyes caught the beautiful figure of the Hyuga Princess. The one he had been thinking about some moments ago. Although he can't deny the pleasure he was feeling just by looking at her; he kept his reactions neutral and calm.

Until he figured this foreign feeling that he feel when he was with Hinata; he can't let anyone get a clue about it. Not even Naruto.

As if he didn't care about anything Sasuke keep his gaze straight at the front when his friends welcome Team 9. But from the corner of his eyes, he was watching the timid Hyuga hug Ino and Sakura with a breath taking smile.

That smile; it make his heart skip a bit. Now he sure want to know what Hinata is doing to him. Seriously they have only met a few times and she is able to make him feel like this; if they met a few more times than he don't know what will she be able to do to him.

"Hey you bastard, shouldn't you be in surveillance, what are you doing here"

Sasuke rolled his eyes at Kiba's words as he glare at the Izunuka coldly. But he didn't mind his words tough; he said it in a friendly way.

"I ask grandma Tsunade to let him come with me for today, sasuke also need some fresh air right" Naruto replied after a sigh instead of Sasuke. The Uchiha will not even bother to reply though.

Than after that they began talking about their missions. Kiba and Shino with the three boys and Hinata with the two other Kunoichi, and as for Sasuke he just stand there looking uninterested.

"Sasuke-kun"

The Uchiha head snap towards Hinata as he took a step back surprised. He didn't even realized when the Hyuga came towards him, oh gosh she was about to give him a heart attack.

Sasuke regain his calm composure as he stare at the girl in front of him emotionlessly. He know he must be looking rude by not replying but he was Uchiha Sasuke, everyone knows that.

He was not interested in anything and that includes talking. Even Hinata know that so she smile once again and added,

"Welcome back to Konoha, Sasuke-kun"

After some moments of admiring her features he replied, "Hn"

Silence

Silence

Silence

As they stand there silently for moments which was like decades for both of them; Hinata grew nervous as she drifted her gaze somewhere else from his cold emotionless eyes. She was looking everywhere but not to his eyes again.

Like that some more moments passed and Sasuke broke the uncomfortable silence after a smirk seeing Hinata blush nervously. She didn't stutter anymore but she still is as shy and soft.

"Looks like you got more confidence in yourself, Hyuga. But you still blush"

"H-huh"

Hinata's couldn't be red anymore as she bit her lower lips nervously. She have no word to reply to his previous comment, it was already awkward and embarrassing for her; there's no way she want to make this more awkward.

All she wanted to do right now was go and hide in a corner of her room. But as if one cue Naruto break the awkwardness between them with his loud voice,

"EVERYONE LET'S GO EAT RAMEN IN ICHIRAKU, IT WILL BE MY TREAT"

Everyone agreed to that as they make their way to Naruto's favorite ramen shop. Now who would want to miss free food; leaving the famous, Uchiha Sasuke.

He instead wanted to train so he informed Naruto that he would be in the training grounds, training and that before night he will go back to the place where he was kept in surveillance hinself and left. He knew that Naruto would insist him to come with them so he left before he can even do that.

Naruto was complaining about his behavior all the way as they walk but quickly stop it when he felt Sakura and Ino death glares on him. He didn't want to be beaten up today.

....

After eating ramen they all went their own ways after saying goodbyes leaving Hinata, Kiba and Shino, they still have to report to the Hokage about their mission. And the only thing in their minds was to report to Tsunade quickly and went home to rest.

They were damn tired.

Seeing how tired her teammates was Hinata insisted that she would report to the Hokage office alone and that they should go rest, the both left giving up after some arguments they would come with her. She wasn't as tired as them anyway.

Hinata knock on the Hokage office door and after hearing a 'come in' from Tsunade she open the door and stand in front of her table.

"Oh Hinata your team is back from the mission" She stated as she took a sip from her sake.

Hinata was glad that Tsunade wasn't drunk yet, her voice was still gentle, like she have just started drinking. Hinata wanted to rest and she was probably not in the mood to deal with a drunk Hokage.

"Hai, Tsunade sama" Hinata responded with a gentle tone and passed the scroll in her hands to Tsunade who gladly took it. After reading some stuffs in the scroll she nodded with a smile, a way for her to say congrats that their mission was a success.

"Now can i go, Tsunade sama"

"Ahh Hinata, i have a favor to ask you"

Hinata tilted her head as she blurted in confusion, "What favor?"

"Well...." Tsunade gave him a smile that she often used when she borrow money from someone in the past as she kept her sake cup in the table and continued what she was saying,

"You know that Uchiha Sasuke have been keep in surveillance for two week and will be keep for two more weeks right?"

Hinata nodded, "Hai, i know"

"Shizune was in charge to take care of his meals. I mean breakfast, lunch and dinners but..."

"But?"

"Due to an important s-rank mission she will have to leave the village tomorrow in the early morning with some other jonins and will be gone for three weeks maximum"

Hinata nodded as a sign for Tsunade to continue and she does,

"Hinata now i will get straight to the point. I want you to take care of the Uchiha meals until he's out of the surveillance, that means for two weeks" she finished and though it was so quick for her to said this; it took hinata thirty seconds to understand was she was talking about.

Tsunade was quite amused as the Hyuga expression change by every passing seconds. From confusion to frown and to shock and all available expression that she can saw.

"WHAT, why me, Tsunade sama"  Hinata bursted out with wide eyed as she finally understand what Tsunade meant.

"Probably because Hinata, you are the one whom i know can cook properly compared to Sakura and Ino"

"What about other Kunoichi!?"

"Well i want someone like his former classmate to take this responsiblity. If i sent any other kunoichis than it would be like I'm sending them in a suicide mission"

Hinata kept her head low as she was loss in words. Should she agreed? will Sasuke even be happy knowing about this? she didn't know anything.

"It's a favor i want to ask you, Hinata. Please accept it and think of it as a mission"

"B-but what about my other missions"

Tsunade smiled as she responded to Hinata's question, "Don't worry Hinata. Whenever i give you a mission during this two weeks, i will make sure to assigned someone with patience to make meals for sasuke. One or two days...i can atleast manage for that"

"Fine, Tsunade sama...." Hinata took a deep breath as she finished her sentence saying her worst decision,

"I accept the mission"

Well if it's her worst or best decision, she will only know it by the time.
