Hi there guys! I know it's been a year and I've been a total jerk but so much has happened and today while I was writing another story and having some sort of break down of my own, I decided to update this story. I honestly didn't know how did I want all of this to happen and I just started writing and this what came out. I hope you all like it.

PS: Thank you to everyone who has reviewed and/or follow my story all the way until today. Hopefully it won't take me another year to actually end this story

Chapter 13

Hinata Hyuga didn't even know how she was feeling at the moment. She felt free but trapped. Angry but also happy. It was like everything that she was suppose to be feeling before just exploded and now her whole being was confuse.

She laid in her bed, confuse on how this had happened. She had told herself that she was strong. That she could surpass what had happened with Naruto and that she could be strong for her family when her mother died but now she felt lost. She like she couldn't even handle her normal day to day life.

She felt sick to her stomach to even get up in the morning. She afraid to keep acting the way she was acting. It was like someone else had taken over her body and she was just watching from the inside without being able to stop it.

Everyone was seeing this broken angry girl but they never saw the girl who laid down on her late at night, wide awake as she stared at the wall, letting the tear fall down her pale cheeks. Her emotions were too out of control for her to even realize what she was doing.

A soft knock was heard from the other side of the door. "Hinata" her father called out softly. Ever since she yelled at her, he had been tip toeing around her and more than once has she passed by his office and has heard him crying to himself. She knew it had been her fault. She knew she should have been stronger and not snapped but it was too late for her to take it all back.

"I'm awake" she yelled out with anger. She didn't even recognize herself. She got out of bed and made her way into the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror and saw the broken angry girl staring back at her but it wasn't her.

Her breathing became heavier as she stared at the tired/angry eyes in front of her. She wasn't even sure what had become. She turned her head away and got in the shower.

When she finally ready and made her way downstairs she found herself alone in her house. A sarcastic angry scoff escaped her lips as she left her house; her father never thought twice on avoiding her.

Once she got to school she continue to down the hallway. She ignore every stare and whisper coming her way.

"Slut"

"Crazy"

"Weirdo"

"Bitch" She heard from every single person she passed by but she never let anyone see how she really felt on the inside. She passed by her friends, her eyes straight ahead as she ignore their worried looks but even as she walked away she could feel his stare following her.

From the moment she entered the school, to the moment she left, she knew Naruto was never too far off. It seemed like he was never going to give up. It didn't matter how many times she would insult him or how many time she would slap him, he wouldn't leave and deep down she didn't want him to.

It didn't help that Nurico was never available. She truly believe that nothing would change when she moved back. She missed her old best friend and she wish she was there to help her through whatever she was going through right now but it seemed she was too busy continuing her life to realize that Hinata wasn't even herself anymore.

School continue they way it always did. Hinata held back on the tear as people kept on whispering and even avoided everyone whenever she got the chance. What she didn't know was that her true breaking point was about snapped and there wasn't anything that could do about it.

She had been calmly eating her lunch by herself in the lunch room. Her eyes were glue to her phone, reading on some review of a book she had been looking forward to read when someone slapped the tray beside her.

She blinked a couple of times before she looked up. It was then she realize that she was surrounded by a group of girls. "You're in our spot" One of the girls growled as she looked down at Hinata.

"I was here first" Hinata said, her voice low and angry.

"It seems like you're done here" another girl said as she reached over at Hinata's tray and flipped it on to her. Hinata gasped and jumped. She wanted to scream and fight the girls but she could already feel her body shaking with anger. She could feel the tears building up and so she stormed off.

She started walking faster but ended up sprinting out of the room before anyone could see her crying. She ran and ran until she find a spot that was enough from everyone. She took out her phone and while taking a few shaky breaths she dialed Nurico's phone.

"I'm sorry at this moment the person you have reached is-" the message began to say before she hanged out. Hinata screamed and threw her phone against the wall. Why was this happening to her? Why was she so alone? Why couldn't she control herself?

"Hinata?" a male voice called her name softly from behind.

"Stay away from me Naruto!" she screamed, her back still facing him as she trembled with anger.

"No! I'm tired of staying away!" he said firmly. "Hit me, insult me. Tell me it's all my fault but I won't leave you" he said.

Hinata swooped around and glared at him. "It is ALL your fault!" she screamed. "You had to try to pretend like you like me. You just had to make me feel worthless again! Because of you I can't control how I'm feeling" she said, her fist reaching his chest.

"I never pretend anything! I am in love with you and I will never stop saying it to you" he screamed.

"SHUT UP!" She screamed even more. "Shut up, shut up, shut up!" she as she launched herself to hit him but Naruto was quicker and stronger. He grabbed her wrist to stop her from hitting him and before she knew he was wrapping his arms around her and holding her tight. "Let me go" she cried out.

"I'm not letting you go again" He said, his eyes close as he hugged her even tighter. "You're not alone Hinata. I am here for you" he whispered.

"No, no, no" she whispered, all her defensed slowly slipping away. "I am alone. I'm always alone" she trembled.

"Not anymore. I'll always be here. I'm never letting you go Hinata. You're not alone" he whispered her ear as she finally melted into his arms and cried into his chest, her hands holding on to him for dear life.

"I don't want to be alone anymore" she whispered.

"You're not alone anymore, Hinata. I'm here and I love you and if I have to show you everyday. I will" he whispered. Slowly they both slipped into the floor. He manage to keep her in his arms as he sat her between his legs.

Him more than anyone could understand what it was like to feel alone and abandoned. He never wanted anyone to know what it was like to feel that way, specially Hinata. She had been left with so much responsibility that she never was given the chance to express all the hurt inside of her but Naruto was going to make sure to change that.

Never again would he watch her suffer from afar. He had been listening to his friend when they told him that she needed to vent and that he needed to stay away but he knew better. He knew what it was like to have no one in a moment like this. He had been lucky enough to have found someone to help him through the loss and now he was going to do the same with Hinata.

He let her cry into his chest until she couldn't cry anymore. To him it was all forgive. He knew she hadn't meant the things she had said. They were all out of anger, looking for away to hurt someone the way she was being hurt and Naruto could take it. For her he would take any kind of pain.

They sat there for hours, unsure when had the second period had even started but Naruto didn't even dared to move. What he cared about was Hinata and now he was sure that she slowly but surely finding herself again.
