Chapter 1: The boy with onyx eyes

Sasuke's POV

I was heading to the infirmary full of anger.

"Stupid Kiba. He made me break another window because of his stupidity. How long is he gonna continue challenging me to fight with him? He really thinks I'd see Ino more than a friend?"

I entered the infirmary and looked for the nurse, but it looked like she was not there, again. I decided to go to the bathroom and wash my hand full of blood I wouldn't die just because of that. When I was about to touch the knob of the door, it opened alone. In front of me was a girl with black blue, long hair. She looked surprised to see me, but when she saw my hand, her eyes were full of fear. A moment later, she fainted.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" I asked panicked.

I didn't know what to do in this kind of situation. I looked around for someone, but the classes already started and we were the only ones there. I sighed and put her on a bed, looking over her. I washed my hands fast, came back and after 10 minutes, she slowly opened her eyes and looked around.

"You're in the infirmary." I explained to her, she looked very confused.

Once she realized what happened, she took my hand and looked at it scared.

"I..I-I'm sorry!" she said holding my hand gently.

"It's okay it's not your fault for this." I answered, but the girl got off of the bed and searched for something in the room.

She came back fast with a medical kit and looked at me, her cheeks were really red.

"C-Can I..?" she tried to ask, realizing what she meant, I nodded and accepted her offer of taking care of my hand, since no one else was here I didn't really have anyone else to do it.

She started disinfecting my hand, but, it didn't hurt at all.

"I-If it hurts, p-please tell me…" she said slowly.

"It's okay."

After she finished she put the medical kit back where she took it. I was wondering why she fainted... Normally, I'd think she was another stupid fan-girl, but she really didn't look like one. I looked at her every move as she walked all over the room searching for a glass of water.

I jumped on the bed and looked nowhere, but thinking if I should ask or not.

I don't really like talking, and for a few minutes, she just silently stayed on a chair and looked out the window. She didn't try to force a conversation nor stare at me... what a strange girl. Well actually, I should say: what a normal girl.

"Hey, why did you faint earlier?" I asked without thinking too much.

She looked at me surprised with a little red on her cheeks.

"U-um... I-I have a fear for blood." she looked at the ground.

So that's why... but if she has a fear for blood, then why did she..?

"You should've said earlier! If you hate blood that much, then you didn't have to take care of my hand." I said a bit too loud and realized that she may scare, but instead, she looked at me gently and smiled.

"It's okay... At least, that's what I could do after I troubled you."

I looked at her. "What's your name?"

"Hyuuga Hinata." she said simply. "Yours?"

"Uchiha Sasuke."

"Dear passengers, the plain will land in about an hour, please turn off your cellphones."

The stewardess announced bowing. I looked at my phone... 9:00 p.m. I guess I will arrive at the apartment at 10:30, but it doesn't really matter since no one is waiting for me. Tomorrow, my car and the other furniture from my parent's house will arrive. I looked bored out the window trying not to fall asleep... I guess I really did, since I suddenly heard a voice calling 'mister', 'mister' and touching my shoulder

"Mister…"

The voice had the same volume and the same intensity, even thought it was calling me for a few minutes. I woke up and turned my head a little to see the person who was calling me. Just by looking at her face, I was able to say she was about 25 years, like me. The lady looked at me calm, with her emerald eyes.

"I'm sorry for waking you up, but I suggest to turn off your cell phone." she turned her sight to the cell phone from my hands.

"Thank you." I said turning my cell phone off, right before the stewardess came and checked if everything's ok.

"That was close." she smiled at me relieved.

I looked a bit at her. Her pink hair was tied in a bun, I'm sure that this is her natural color, but it's really something new. She opened her emerald eyes slowly and looked at the clock from her wrist. Her pale white skin reminded me of snowy winter... but she looked more like a... cherry blossom. I looked a bit at her clothes; a pair of black skinny jeans and a red, elegant sweater.

As the plane landed, I turned on my cell phone to call a taxi. It was the night of January 3rd, so there weren't any taxi's at the airport. I heard the gentle voice from earlier, screaming at somebody on the phone. You could feel the anger from her voice, but her talk wasn't really loud. Everyone at the airport was hugging, kissing and talking with the ones they love. I put on my scarf and waited for my taxi.

"Great, thank you. I'm really excited to walk 30 km in this snow, until the apartment." she said sarcastically to the person from the other end of the call and hung up.

My taxi came, and without thinking very much, I walked to the woman from before who looked troubled.

"You can come in my taxi too." I said while Ren, the driver and my friend, took my stuff.

She looked at me insecure.

"I won't rape you, or anything like that." I said trying to make her a little comfortable.

She laughed and Ren began to take her packs too. I opened the door for her and she thanked me.

"How did you know I was in trouble?" she asked taking her gloves off.

"I accidentally heard your conversation, and I think I owe you this, since you helped me earlier." I could feel how the temperature was getting hotter and hotter, so I took my jacket off.

"Hm, I'm kind of lucky. Normally, not everyone would help a stranger." she smiled gratefully.

"I guess I'm not a normal person." I tried to make it sound like a joke, but I think she understood what I wanted to say.

"Miss, where should I stop?" asked the driver when I realized that I didn't asked where she wanted to go.

"Oh, on the Yuuki's boulevard is a big building, I think it's number 100." I was surprised when I heard the address. "Do you know where it is?" she asked.

"Of course ma'am. That's where the young master is going." I could see his smirk in the mirror. I knew him for a long time, and we were getting along really well.

"You don't have to be so formal, Ren." Even though I knew he was being sarcastic.

She looked at me surprised and a little happy. "Really? Are you visiting somebody?" she asked enthusiastic, but when she realized that she sounded like a little kid, her cheeks got a bit red and her voice lowed. "I-I mean, I'm sorry for asking something personal."

I started laughing she really was a strange one. I looked at her after my little pause of laughing "No, I'm moving in."

She smiled. "I guess we'll be neighbors."

After a long ride where we laughed and talked about stupid stuff, the taxi finally arrived. I had less bags than her, so I helped her carry them. Anyway, how much clothes can a woman bring? I looked a bit at the building, it was a plain one. Brown, big windows, many apartments and ten floors. As we entered in, I saw that it was actually pretty on the inside. The walls were white and there was nobody at the entrance. The thing that I liked the most about this building was that it was very silent.

"Which room are you moving into?" I asked as the elevator stopped at the tenth floor.

"404." she said as we headed to her room. I looked at the number from my keys.

"Well, we really are neighbors." She turned around surprised. "I'll live here." I said pointing to the room that was parallel to hers.

"I guess today really is a lucky day, I don't know anyone here, in Tokyo, so I hope we can get along." she said opening the door.

I entered in the big room and left her bags, looking all over and hoping my room was gonna be at least as big as hers.

"Thank you. I'll help you unpack your things in exchange." she said smiling. "Oh…" she looked at my bags with a surprised look.

"It's ok the other things will come later, so you can still help me." I said smiling.

For some reason, I felt like talking, and also, I felt that if I was alone again, I'd remember everything again...

"That's all, thank you again." she said after she came out from a room.

I saw that her furniture was already here and remembered that I don't have a bed. I made a poker-face, and, unfortunately, she saw me.

"I remembered you saying that your things are coming tomorrow, do you have anywhere to sleep?"

She caught me, I didn't know what to say, and I couldn't go to a hotel either because Ren already left.

"I guess not." I said trying not to laugh about my own situation.

"You can sleep on my bed, I'll sleep on the couch." she smiled.

"It's ok, I'll sleep on the couch, but are you sure I won't rape you?" I said sarcastically.

"I'll take the risk."

I smiled and took my shoes off. The living room was really big, and the kitchen was in a corner of the living room. The bathroom was in the right of the living room and her room was in the left.

"Do you want some tea or coffee? I did some shopping at the supermarket before leaving, so I have both."

"Tea." I said as I sat down at a table near the big window.

After a few minutes she came with two cups of lemon tea, surprisingly, it was my favorite. I smiled and took a sip.

When the silence came, I realized. What am I doing? I'm in a stranger's apartment, drinking tea and preparing to sleep here, and moreover, she's a girl. I'm doing all of these when I have a lover... or at least, that's what I think. I suppose she kind of realized the awkward atmosphere since she drank her tea rather fast then got up.

"I'll go to sleep, it's really late." she turned around and went to the bedroom.

I couldn't sleep, not in such a situation, but in the end I feel asleep for a few hours. I think it was about 3 a.m. when I woke up hearing some footsteps. I could see the girl searching for something in the fridge. She took a seat at the table and started eating ice-cream. I opened my eyes large enough to see her, but impossible for her to figure out that I am awake. I could rarely, but clearly, hear her voice that tried to be slow. She was crying, but I thought that it was for the best to pretend to sleep; after all I'm sure she wouldn't talk about her problems with a stranger, and I shouldn't even be interested.

It was 7 a.m. when I heard someone knocking on the door from the neighborhood. As soon as I realized that it was my door that they were at, I jumped on my feet and took my single bag. The person who helped me bring my furniture up here apologized for waking me up. Since I'm not really the person who loves to wake up early, I guess I kind of scared him, but at least I can sleep in my own room. I looked a bit around my room and it had the same construction as I realized that I didn't even ask her name…

"I'm really strange today..." I said falling asleep on the couch.

I dreamed about the days I was in high school... but I can tell that it wasn't really a happy dream that most of people should have about their teenage years. I woke up suddenly when I felt someone touching my shoulder and moving me.

"Hey." the girl from neighborhood was smiling at me. "You really shouldn't sleep with your door open."

I looked at the door, it really was open.

"I'm sorry for entering like this, but I promised to help you with stuff." she said moving around the room.

Can she really help me move those things? She looks... fragile.

"It's ok, they're kind of heavy." I said trying to open my eyes, I really hate when someone wakes me up.

"I'm not a doll, you know." she said laughing.

I smiled back at her, in fact, I really liked her company.
