"Oh Kami, yes there! Yes! OH YES!"
Hinata's eyes shot open as the screams from the other room woke her up. She groaned and quickly reached over to her night stand to find her ear plugs. Once they were securely in place she realized her phone must have died sometime during the night while she was listening to music, allowing her to hear her roommate's rather loud activities.
She put her phone to charge and waited for the familiar logo screen to appear as it gained some battery. When she looked at the time she was shocked to see it was 3am in the morning. She waited for her phone to alert her to messages or missed calls but there were none and she frowned. She had been expecting something from her boyfriend but nothing. This wasn't the first time this has happened either and she felt a twinge in her heart that raised doubts.
Completely awake now, she got up to get something to drink and maybe something to eat. She sent off a quick 'What happened to you?' text and proceeded to head to the kitchen. She rummaged around the refrigerator until she found a bottle of water behind a bunch of beer bottles. She proceeded to look around the cabinets for something to munch on when her roommates door opened.
He exited with the night's conquest wearing only a pair of sweatpants and Hinata had to avert her eyes and looked at the woman instead. She was trying to tame the sex hair she just acquired with one hand and smooth her clothes with the other. Hinata was just glad she could remove her ear plugs and sleep without them on.
"Are you sure you don't want me to spend the night?" she asked.
He answered her question by opening the front door and waited for her to leave, the girl took the hint and crossed their living room but stopped at the door to leave a good night kiss on his cheek.
"Call me?" she asked. Hinata felt like her voice had a little too much hope in it.
He merely nodded and as soon as both feet were over the threshold he closed the door.
Hinata let out a sigh of disapproval but stopped lecturing him about treating the women that comes through his door months ago.
His eyes landed on her in the kitchen and she suddenly felt naked as his eyes raked her body and lingered lingered on certain places, she couldn't help the blush that colored her cheeks. She remembered that she was wearing a rather revealing dress, that Ino and Sakura helped her buy, it emphasized her breasts and clung to the curves of her body in the vain hopes of keeping her boyfriend's attention on her. Once again she felt her heart give an uncomfortable twinge because she had to go to such lengths for a boyfriend that spends less and less time with her.
She was so lost in thought that she didn't even see or hear her roommate enter the kitchen and grab a beer.
He opened it and leaned against the wall.
"Stood up again?" he asked.
She nearly jumped a foot in the air and placed a hand on her heart to calm it down. It was beating frantically out of control since he scared her out of her thoughts.
"What?" she asked.
"He stood you up again."
Hinata looked away in embarrassment and just nodded yes instead.
They said nothing else as he sipped his beer and she sipped her water. She was used to his random questions that usually followed by silence. Hinata didn't mind and she didn't think he did either. She was glad that he didn't feel the need to fill the silence with random chit chat. It nice was to come home and not worry about offending anyone because she didn't feel like talking. He really was the ideal roommate except for the ridiculously loud sex he has with different women.
"Are you going to go to sleep?" she asked him.
"No."
"Movie?"
He shrugged his shoulders and Hinata had no idea what that meant but didn't really care, she was going to watch it with or with out him. A movie was a good way to keep her mind occupied away from her pathetic love life for 1hour and 36minutes, depending on the movie.
As she walked past him she was hyperaware of his body, she turned around to tell him to put a shirt on and saw his eyes were glued to her butt. Instead of looking embarrassed he walked past her and went into the living room and sat on the couch.
When she found her voice again she instead told him "I'm going to change, be right back. You should probably put a shirt on."
She made a quick stop to the bathroom and saw all the make up she had put on smudged a little bit and was slightly embarrassed. She wiped it off with a towelette and felt more refreshed.
In her room she noticed her phone was flashing blue indicating that she had a message. It was from him. She read the 'Sorry babe lost track of time' and tossed her phone on her bed. She didn't feel like dealing with him tonight or this morning seeing as how it was 3:30ish in the am. She changed into her fuzziest pair of socks, flannel pjs, and grabbed her favorite blanket.
When she finally made her way back to the living room she saw that he was pretty much in the same spot on the left side of the couch except he was wearing a white muscle shirt. She felt relived not because she was distracted with his body (even though it was great to look at) but because of her jealous boyfriend.
"Do you have anything in mind?" she inquired.
"No."
"I'll just pick a classic then." She went through her rather impressive collection and felt that since she wouldn't be sleeping tonight a Nightmare On Elm Street movie seemed fitting. She popped in the movie, made sure all the lights were off and settled in on the right side of the couch.
"Ready Gaara?"
He nodded yes and she pressed play.
As Hinata slept Gaara stared at the sleeping girl that was currently using his shoulder as a pillow and trying to figure out how to get her off him without waking her up. Halfway during their 3rd movie she had fallen asleep and each time she put on a new movie she sat closer to him. Now here he was trapped with this girl on a couch.
As he stared at her face he noted how much happier she was when she was sleeping. That's why he didn't do relationships, they make you more and more miserable the longer they last. She was proof of that. Her boyfriend, Toneri, was cheating on her, that much was obvious, and she fought for his attention which was causing her sadness.
He had watched her face light up and her eyes brightened as she told him little facts about the movie, or how much she loved this part and then how she would apologize as if someone had told her it wasn't important or interesting enough. That's why he avoided love it made people pathetic and weak.
He gently tried to lift her head away from him but stopped when she said "Don't." He checked to see if she was awake but she wasn't. As he stared at her for the third time he brushed away the hair that had fallen in her face, she let out a sigh and snuggled closer to him. As he went to sleep the last thing he saw was a smile on her face and the last thing he thought was this isn't so bad.
Hinata was violently woken up to sound of Toneri yelling at her.
She blinked around in confusion and realized she must have fallen asleep during the movie but what confused her was that she didn't remember using Gaara as a pillow or when he had put his arm over her shoulders that held her securely to his side. Gaara was thinking the exact same thing about his arm's behavior until a fist flew in his face but he managed to avoid it in time - barely.
Hinata stood up and pushed Toneri a few steps away from Gaara she was shocked that he had just tried to punch him for no real reason.
"What is wrong with you?!" she yelled at Toneri while Gaara stood up and standed behind her.
"Me? What's wrong with ME?!" he yelled flabbergasted. "You don't answer your fucking phone for hours and come to check up on you to find you sleeping with another fucking man! How long has this shit been going on?!"
Hinata went slack-jawed in shock and Gaara chuckled, she turned to gave him her best glare but at that moment Toneri shoved her to the ground and lunged for Gaara again. Gaara, angry that Toneri hurt Hinata and bored with this whole situation, pulled his arm back and punched him square on the jaw causing Toneri to fall on his ass.
He felt that satisfaction knowing he caused Toneri pain and he looked up expecting to see Hinata yell or be angry with him but she wasn't. She walked over her boyfriend and went to Gaara.
"You should probably hang out in your room while he's like this." she told him as grabbed his hand and checked to see if it was broken, "I don't want you hurt over a misunderstanding." She looked into her teal colored eyes and the intensity she felt gave her goosebumps. She remembered her surroundings when Toneri let out a string of expletives as he rubbed his jaw.
After watching Gaara's door close she turned her attention to her boyfriend.
"Why did you do that?"
"I saw you is his arms and I lost it, I'm sorry." He tried to reach out and caress her face but she moved out of his reach.
"That would only make sense if I was in his bed or naked even. Why do you always assume I'm cheating on you? When have I ever given you reason to doubt me?" She crosses her arms over her chest and feels her eyes starting to water.
"I love you so much that I can't bare the thought of seeing my girlfriend with someone else. Is that so wrong?"
"It is when you react like a child, I'm not a toy. Where were you last night?" Her heart broke when she saw the panic in his face and she felt the tears fall.
"I was home, babe I just fell asleep like I told you."
"You said you lost track of time."
"Yeah, because I fell asleep. Don't do this Hinata I love you, you know that." He walks towards her and wraps his arms around her and holds her tight but she feels like she's suffocating.
"I can't do this anymore Toneri. You lie all the time, where were you last night?"
He stops holding her and roughly grabs her by the shoulders his voice that was sickly sweet turns harsh, "You can't do this? I'm so fucking tired of having to deal with your insecurities, your dumbass friends, and stupid ass movies. By the way darling, there are dozens of girls that want to be make up artists just like you with more talent. You're not anything special to me, especially not to your father, or anyone else for that matter." As Hinata whimpers in pain she struggles not to let out the sobs that are desperate to escape.
Toneri pushes Hinata away from him, and gives her a look of pity. "All you had to do was shut the fuck up Hinata. At least I don't have to sneak around now." He fixes his designer jacket that was ruffled in his scuffle with Gaara and walks away from her, his biggest mistake was looking back to see how much his words affected Hinata because that gave Gaara enough time to catch up to him and punch his nose.
Gaara relished in hearing the smug bastard's nose crack and was balling his hand for another punch when he felt Hinata's delicate hands wrap around his fist.
"Don't." she said.
He let all the anger leave his body and shoved Toneri out the door he conveniently left open when he barged into their apartment.
