Chapter Eight: It Rains, It Pours
- Uchiha Sasuke -
"What is it with you and Hinata? You have been Roommates for about a week and now all of a sudden you are best friends," Sakura was jealous. She has been jealous about Hinata and I a lot lately.
"I'm her roommate, what the guy that is your roommate don't do stuff like this?" She looked away seeming to remember or think of something. "He does but I don't like it because him and I aren't like that."
"Well Hinata and I are different. How about you just go get ready for the party at your dorm?" I wanted to spend sometime alone. I needed time to think through this dinner and the book.
When you live with someone you don't get a lot of time alone. "Alright, I guess I'll see you at Lluvia Bell." Sakura turned around and started walking towards her dorm.
I looked at Hinata's stuff. There was no point in me looking through it, it was just school stuff. A note fell out. "A note?" I picked it up.
Father wants me to have dinner with Sasuke's Father and Brother. I want to combine the dinners, but I know father won't allow that. The best thing I can do is hope Neji and Sasuke our on my side.
There are some scribbles on the paper. She must have been bored in one of her classes and wrote this.
I mean it almost seems like everyone is pushing us together. The dinner is about the book most likely. If it is about anything like they want me to date Sasuke or anything like that. I might not be able to do it.
She drew a big line across the words: I like Naruto, but he will hate me if I become closer with Sasuke and Ino will hate me for liking Naruto.
I guess I shouldn't have read this but as long as I don't tell her. She won't know.
So she likes Naruto but won't date him because of her best friend Ino. My only thing is I thought Naruto liked Sakura, so does he really like both of them? I just won't say anything. I got to our dorm and opened of the door. I took Hinata's things to her room. It was clean and fresh smelling. There was pictures of her Ino, Neji and Naruto and few other friends on her mirror.
I set the stuff on her bed and looked at the pictures. There was one of her that had been ripped. She was with a guy in the picture. Must have been an old boyfriend. I recognized the background it was in a stadium.
I pulled out my phone and took a picture afterwards leaving her room and closing the door. This really isn't going to help her trust me more. I might as well get ready for the party.

After I was done getting ready, Hinata and Ino had showed up. "Hey, Sasuke don't you look nice," Ino looked over me a few times.
"Take a picture it will last longer," I smirked at her and she rolled her eyes. "Anyway, I'm going to have one of my father's assistants take me. You want a ride?" Hinata looked at Ino and she nodded. They always had something secret going on.
"Yes, but Ino won't be coming she is going to ride over with someone else," Hinata smiled and took her dress out the bag. "She wanted to come back to see me in my dress."
"Makes since in girl language," I chuckled. "Anyway, hurry Hinata, it will be a long ride." Why is the party all the way in the land of water anyway? That is far. "And also I want to talk to you about something before we go."
"Why don't you talk while I dress why don't you talk?" She headed towards her room with Ino behind her. I guess it was no big deal of Ino heard.
"When I put your stuff in your room earlier I saw a ripped picture on your mirror," I was standing outside the door and talking into it.
"The picture of me at a soccer game?"
"Yeah, I think there was a stadium in the background I recognized. Why is it ripped and who else was in the picture?" She didn't say anything. I heard a zip and then the door swung open.
"I'm glad you asked because I had found that when unpacking your things. Those nights where we just stayed up doing anything but sleeping. I found it," she held up the picture. She had gotten her dress on all the way. White and skin tight, with a rather long tutu. It came out and dropped like a big queen dress. See through so you could see where the white one ended. Just above her knees.
"In my things?" Why would a I have had a picture of Hinata? I don't remember packing it. "Which box?" I ran to my room. She followed me.
"The one that said don't forget," the one that said don't forget Itachi and my mother had put together. It was things they told me I needed but still refused to pack. "In a blue book. It fell out."
"Blue book," I looked through my room, on my dresser, in my closet. I finally found it when I looked under my bed. I grabbed it and flipped through it. There was pictures of Sakura, Naruto and I.
"What's the book?" Ino and Hinata looked over my shoulder. I forgot Ino was here for a second.
"It's a book, my mother made. She said I should keep memories. I never cared, she would take pictures and the ones I would take. Copy them and put them in here with a sentence or too.
"So a scrapbook," Ino started to laugh. "Cute."
"How is this not too forget?" I turned too the last page and it said: Don't forget to add pictures and words. "Ah, she wants me to continue it.......Not happening."
"Find the page the picture," Hinata was still looking over my shoulder.
I flipped when I got to any empty page. With words at the bottom: Hinata and Sasuke on their second date. Hinata picked to go to a state soccer game. She kept the of half of Sasuke and he kept this one. "You have the other have?"
"Uh.. Maybe? I don't remember having that," she sighed. "I don't remember much from my senior year."
"Neither one of you are bothered that it says you too were dating," We both looked at Ino and shrugged.
"My mom probably had the wrong Idea and thought were dating," I stood up and set my book on the bed. "Where is the other picture?" I looked at Hinata. "Let's go to your room."
"I'll see you at the party," Ino slipped out the room. With a smile. We waved to her and ran to Hinata's room. We looked around cursory looked around the room, then trying again and again. We didn't find anything.
"It might be in my old room," I looked at her. "No, I don't believe I have it, but if I do then it's at my father's house."
"We didn't look well enough and your father isn't going to just let us in your house," I sat there for a moment and it was at the same exact time that Hinata and I came up with this idea.
"The dinner," we yelled and pointed a each other.
"Tomorrow you sneak into the house during our dinner and look for the picture."
"But I have already asked for the dinners to be together. If we go together then we will probably go to some fancy place all together," she sighed. "In other words: Not my house."
But if she just protested for going to her house, then she would win right after all her cant say no, "Just say you want it at your house. You have power."
"We don't have time to think through this now if we want to make the party," She walked out of her room and I followed. "Is the ride here?" I checked my phone.
"Yeah, let's go," I grabbed the key and threw it to Hinata. She caught it and locked the door behind us. We ran outside and go inside my private car.
***
We walked into Lluvia Bell and found the party room. It looked amazing. There was a water fountain shinging right in the middle. We didn't arrive right away, but we didn't come too late. Everyone looked amazing. "Well don't just stare." Hinata laughed and waved to Ino and Naruto.
I walked over to Sakura, she was sitting in the corner of the room with a drink in her hand. "Waiting for me?" Her eyes lit up.
"I wasn't just relaxing," she smiled and the top of Lluvia Bell opened up... It was raining. I put my hand out and she took it. I mean why not dance with her. We danced and when I looked over my should I saw Hinata dancing with Naruto. "What's wrong?"
"Ah.. Nothing," the rain was getting everywhere. Sakura's hair was all in her face now. "Just keep your eyes locked with mine." She nodded and laughed.
I didn't know why Hinata was dancing with Naruto and Ino wasn't. Wasn't Hinata trying to be a good friend? Naruto walked over to us with Hinata under his shoulder. "Hey."
"Uh.. Hey," I faked a smile. "You okay, Hinata?" She nodded and smiled.
"Never been better," her smile was so wide and genuine. "What about you?" She couldn't stop the smile and where was Ino? Then I looked across the room, Ino was dancing with Sai. Sakura's roommate.
"Ino and Sai?" I pointed over to them and started laughing a bit.
"It was definitely a surprise. She said she was fine with me and Naruto so.." Hinata was completely happy but something about seeing her with him.
Sakura and I were just dancing for a moment. In that time could Hinata and Ino really have done this. Could Naruto and Hinata really be an item?
"How about we switch partners?" Hinata let go of Naruto and pulled on my arm. "Just for awhile." I nodded and went to dance with Hinata. Sakura and Naruto looked really awkward when dancing.
"Looks like your happy," I moved I stepped with her and her hair was not moving. It was just very wet and shiny. She was looking up at the rain with her eyes closed.
"I am, Naruto and I together will be interesting," she opened her eyes to look at me. Interesting? That doesn't sound like she is happy.
We slowed down the more we danced even if the sound didn't. "Interesting, that word is a bad choice honestly."
"I can't use a word like that I have to use some big word I looked up in the dictionary five times before actually understanding it," she was making another joke about earlier.
"Maybe you just need to be honest," I sighed this rain was starting to get annoying.
"What, like I think this fountain will over flow because the water coming from above," she laughed and looked up again.
"Yeah, I guess that is what I mean," Hinata was avoiding my questions. I didn't bother asking her anymore. Her being with Naruto is something I will never understand but I hope she stays happy.
"So you decided to settle with Sakura?" Hinata gave me the oh lala face. I rolled my eyes. "Fine, don't answer just makes me think you like her more."
"Why didn't we remember?" I just had to ask her one more question or it was going to bother me for the rest of the night. Not that, that nightmare would be a problem.
We stopped dancing and stood in place with everything else moving around us. "I honestly so want to remember, after what Ino said and how it didn't bother us. It bothered me."
"It's not bothering me, just don't know why I still have that so called scrap book," I laughed.
It honestly was bothering me. If Hinata and I dated before what happened that we broke up and why can't I remeber it. She has suddenly become one with Naruto and I hate it more than anything. Just don't know if I can last the rest of the night. When it rains it pours...
