Hello readers! I have attempted many times to write a fan fiction over the year but never had the courage until recently. I plan on this being just a one-shot but if enough people review and like it I have a plan for this to turn into quite the story! I know this is short but I wanted to make sure my writing is even interests others. So please be kind but also let me know what you think and if you want more!

Enjoy!

Hurriedly, Sasuke led Hinata down the dark hallway from the crowd of intoxicated friends that were becoming increasingly belligerent in the living room, themselves having probably one too many trying not to stumble along the way. Hinata's cheeks were already tinted pink from the sake she had been sipping.

"Hss! Ow…"

She hissed out when she tripped over her own feet, rolling her ankle in an awkward angle. Maybe 'sipping' was a bit of an understatement. She was pulled from her thoughts when she felt the raven haired man in front of her pull her into a room.

Her once lightly pink cheeks were fully red now when she remembered what was going on.

Naruto was throwing one of his signature house parties, while normally Hinata would have chosen to stay home, her pink haired friend, Sakura, practically forced her to attend the party. Mumbling something about if she did not come she would waste her life away in a one-bedroom apartment with 20 cats.

Sakura could be pretty dramatic at times.

Hinata had planned on being a wall flower until everyone had a good buzz so then maybe she could leave unnoticed, but again much to her dismay her wild but charming friend Kiba had talked her into a trivial drinking game of Shot Roulette.

No one wins at that game.

Much like spin the bottle, except instead of people it was shot glasses filled with a variety of liquid, ranging from hard liquor to tap water. The game had not been very kind to the pale eyed woman or to anyone for that matter.

She had tried to pace herself afterwards, but the game had been a great icebreaker for the party. Feeling more relaxed, Hinata actually loosened up and was enjoying herself.

But it did not stop the queasy feeling in her gut whenever she would notice subtle gestures between Naruto and Sakura. They continued their normal bickering but to the ones who knew, you could not miss the close proximity, the light touches on the arms, brushing of the shoulders. Hinata was happy for them but that did not mean it did not bother her…

Sasuke did not have much of a choice in attending the party, it was his place after all. Naruto and Sasuke had been roommates since they graduated high school. He was only supposed to have a couple sips and then retire to his room where he had plan to hide out for the remainder of the night. However, as he was about to disappear from the room, Naruto's voice boomed, "Oi! Sasuke-teme! Where the hell do you think you are going?"

"Away." Sasuke deadpanned not wanting to bother with his annoying roommate.

"Oh, common? You scared of a little drinking game. Light weight?" Sasuke tsked mentally but continued to appear stoic as ever. Dobe…

The blonde loud mouth was well aware that the raven haired man was no light weight but he knew insinuating so in front of every one would put a kink in Sasuke's ego.

Not being one to back down from a challenge, especially one from the Uzumaki, the Uchiha turned on his heels and took his place in the circle surrounding the ring of shots.

Multiple shots later…

Hiccup! "Teme!" Naruto shouted for the fifth time at the stoic roommate who appeared to have not even been affected by the shots. Naruto, on the other hand, was definitely feeling the effects of the spirits but was not as influenced as the others.

Rock Lee had already passed out in a corner, his over assertive youthfulness had got the best of him when he decided that he would drink as much as possible in a lightning fast manner. Obviously not the brightest idea but the green beast had put a rather large dent in the supply of alcohol.

Sakura and Ino were hanging off of one another, faces lightly lit pink. Sakura could throw them back just like her instructor, Tsunade-sama. Ino was holding her own, as well but as the gossip queen of the bunch, the blonde could be rather loose with words when under the influence.

"Naruto-baka! Leave Sasuke-kun alone. Not everything has to be a competition between you two." The pink haired woman scorned Naruto.

"Ah but Sakura-chan! I am tired of his bastard attitude—OW!" His insult caused him to receive a powerful whack to the back of his head by Sakura who had hit him a little harder than intended due to the effects of the alcohol, but she played off anyways.

Sasuke quickly lost interest in the events before him and decided to retract from the crowd and find refuge against the wall. Even though he appeared completely sober, he was actually getting a good buzz and thought it best to take interest in people watching from afar.

As he scanned the crowd and took in everyone's drunkenness, he could not help but muse to himself how ridiculous some people were acting once a little poison was in their system.

"Enjoying the party, Sasuke-san?"

The raven's thoughts were abruptly disturbed by a quiet voice that had appeared next to him on the wall. He must have been more influenced than he thought to have not noticed her walk up…or had she been there already?

"Hn," That was all he said, barely acknowledging the question. He glanced over and took in her appearance.

Hinata rested against the wall fiddling with the ends of her sleeves. The Hyuga was not wearing her normal oversized jacket and loose khakis. Instead she was dressed in a tight fitting, purple tank top with an extremely low neck line, displaying a rather impressive cleavage much to the young woman's dismay. Another one of Sakura's wonderful ideas…and dark shorts that fit every curve, revealing sensual, cream colored legs. Her hair was still hanging loosely around her, only accentuating her beauty.

Admiring her obvious beauty, Sasuke mentally kicked himself when he realized how cold he was being as she seemed uncomfortable to begin with.

"And yourself, Hyuga?"

Shortly after the game, Hinata had decided to try and sort herself out of the way of the party and sober up. That is when she had noticed the onyx eyed man brooding against the wall.

Sasuke was dressed nice like always, adoring a well-fitted, button up grey shirt with long sleeves and dark jeans with his hair hanging loose above his shoulders, slightly tamed by a a folded bandanna tide around his head, few strands of hair falling in front of his eyes. The headband made him look rugged, a typical "bad boy". It was apparent why all the women and even some men fawned over him. However, Hinata had never given the handsome man much thought, when she has always had eyes on his best friend but being rather displeased towards said blonde right now, she unconsciously admired the raven for a moment.

Due to the alcohol, the normally shy young woman was actually feeling rather chatty. She did not expect the Uchiha to show much interest when she initially engaged him.

Taken aback slightly, Hinata fumbled with words in a response. Having long since beat her stutter, it was creeping back with the surprise she felt and partially the multiple shots tingling through her system.

"I-I uh am not one for crowds or much of a d-dr-drinker…" Finally sputtering the words out her mouth, she sighed in relief upon finishing.

Sasuke tilted his head and looked down at her as she was few good inches shorter than himself, taking in her response and shifting his weight from one leg to another. Tucking his hands in the pockets of his jeans, he asked, "I thought I just seen you playing Shot Roulette?"

Blushing under his scrutinizing gaze, the shorter woman began to poke her fingers together. Another habit that was coming back.

"Oh! Uh…yeah I was. Kiba-kun i-insisted. That is wh-why I am over here. I am…um trying to sober up."

"Hn," Silence fell amongst them. The intoxicated Hyuga did not mind though. She was still fighting the daze hovering over her until she noticed Sasuke relax against the wall. She couldn't help but roam her eyes once again over his cool demeanor, arms crossed lazily against his chest and his left foot had rested up on the wall behind him causing his knee to be bent outward. He looked so casual and to anyone else he appeared sober, but Hinata could see the haze in eyes.

The Uchiha caught her eyes and she whipped her head to look away a bigger blush covering her cheeks. Not sure why she felt so embarrassed, maybe because she had been looking a little too hard…

Sasuke inwardly smirked. He was used to being ogled and he never thought anything special of most the gazes, but something about the infamous shy Hyuga heiress looking so intently at him stroked his ego and for once he felt like reciprocating.

"Would you like to join me outside?"

R&R!
