I Still Don't Know What Love Is

Hinata stared at the lipstick in her hands. She was currently lying in her bed thinking of the past few days. I guess this colour's alright… But I think he's only trying to tease me by buying this for me. Hinata put the lipstick on her desk and slep

The Next Day

Hinata sat up, feeling slightly dizzy. I'm just going to stay in bed for a minute longer. Hinata told herself and pulled the warm blanket up to her chin as she lay back down on her soft and comfy pillow and mattress. Ahh… I could stay like this forever… Was Hinata's last thought as she drifted off into dreamland.

20 minutes later

"Wake up!" A loud voice boomed through Hinata's room. The next thing Hinata knew was that the blanket was being pulled off her, now, cold body as the cool wind hit her half revealed legs.

"Come on, you're going to be late! Is this what you do when you go to school every morning? Sleep in! Maybe I should have taken the night shift instead." Hinata's mum said to her.

Hinata's mum worked at a take-away shop. She was the like the 'second manager' of Varsity Hamburgers. Her mum either got the morning shift or the afternoon/night shift. In order to cook dinner for the family, she had to take the morning shifts. Today, she had a day off, since the shop was still under re-construction. They were adding a new part to the building, extending the shop.

"No! I just feel really tired today…" Hinata whined, trying to snatch the blanket off her mother's hamburger making hands.

"You can't go back to sleep, you'll be late! Come on, now, I got your lunch ready and the bus might leave soon," Hinata's mother explained, "besides, it was your fault that you left all your homework until the last minute."

"Alright…" Hinata said a bit groggily stepped out of bed. By the time she had finished getting ready for school, it was around 8:30, meaning the bus was nearing where she boarded it. Shoving all her school books from her desk, she hurriedly ran out the door, and walked towards the bus stop, just in time to make it onto the already packed bus.

Nearing lunch time

It was almost 12 o'clock, which meant it was time for lunch. Hinata stared at the clock for 2 minutes. Counting every second closer to the end of Maths.

As the bell rung, students started putting their books into their bags and headed out for lunch. Not really bothered that she only had 45 minutes until her next class to catch up on all the 'gossip'. She had never been one to care about who was just dumped by who, or what colour was so in right now.

After zipping her bag up and slinging around onto her back, she headed to the bathroom.

Washing her hands, she looked at the slightly graphitized mirrors. Her hair pulled back in a ponytail. Her round-rimmed glasses sitting on the bridge of her nose. She did seem plain… No wonder Sasuke finds it amusing to tease me whenever he can…

After her session of 'lowering her self-esteem', she walked out of the toiletthes and to the green grass where most of the students had their lunch. On her way to her usual spot, she saw bumped into Sakura, and her posse.

"Ouch!" Sakura faked, turning around to fake cry in front of her friends.

"I'm really sorry!" Hinata apologized, hoping that everyone wouldn't turn against her all because of this little accident.

"You're so mean," Ino said, glaring at the now frightened Hinata.

Tenten came up stating, "Oh, get a life. It was just accidental, no need to cry,"

Hinata turned to face Tenten, "Thanks…"

"Yeh, don't worry, they're all just drama queens. Come sit over here with me."

Tenten lead Hinata to the grassy spot Hinata had always seen her eat at.

"You know," Tenten said, taking out her lunch, "I don't think that Sakura is a good 'friend',"

"She's not that bad…" Hinata whispered, not believing that she herself had said that.

"Huh… Yeh, not that bad for being a bitch," the brunette exclaimed a little too loud through her mouthful of food.

Hinata opened her bag, pulling out her packed lunch. Biting into the salad sandwich, she sighed contently, not realising how hungry she had been.

"So, I saw you with that guy, your boyfriend," Tenten declared, after she sipped her iced tea (in a bottle).

Hinata nearly choked on her sandwich, "What? He's not my boyfriend! I think he's stalking me! I was there first," Hinata shouted.

"Alright, I know, you told me last time. I was just playing around," Tenten laughed at Hinata's face.

"I-" Hinata started, before being cut off by the bell.

"Great, time for class…" Tenten said, standing off and dusting the crumbs off her skirt. "What do you have now?"

"Um…" Hinata mumbled, "I have English."

They both headed to class, in separate ways, Hinata going to English and Tenten to Art.

At the end of school, Hinata decided to stop at her locker, to put her books away. Opening her bag and unlocking her padlock, Hinata reached into her bag to pull out her bright orange textbook. Sakura's locker was two rows over, meaning that she would see her arriving to take out her books. As she pulled out her maths textbooks, some of her items scattered onto the floor. At that moment, who decided to show up, Sakura, but lucky for Hinata, her friends weren't around, which usually meant that she wouldn't be as mean as she usually was.

Hinata bent down to pick up her stuff. Sakura, seeing the lipstick, immediately picked it up, examining it.

"Hey, you actually have some style. This is the newest one isn't it? Wow. I can't believe that a person as plain as you would consider buying this." Sakura said. She opened the lid and applied some to her already pink lips. Looking at her reflection on the mirror inside her locker, she closed the lid.

"Sasuke would like this colour, wouldn't he?" Sakura looked at Hinata, who was still trying to gather the last few articles that were still on the floor.

"You don't mind if I borrow this from you, right?" Hinata replied with a shake of her head, meaning no. "Thanks. Oh! I would like it if you didn't wear this around Sasuke either. I want to be the only one wearing this colour if he's present."

Hinata thought angrily in her mind. What is she saying?! I can't believe she just said that. I should slap her in the face, but I can't. I'm so lame…

"Oh yeah, today we're having another goukon and I'd appreciate it if you came too. I would be so lonely if you wouldn't attend," Sakura pouted.

"I can't go… I have some homework to do…" Hinata stuttered, trying to think of a plausible excuse.

"I'm in most of your classes and we don't have anything due soon." Sakura eyed Hinata suspiciously.

"It's not form this school. I do cram school as well!" Hinata protested, looking away from Sakura's scary green eyes.

"Oh well, it can wait." Sakura pulled Hinata's arm from the closed locker door. "We should go, we're going to be late."

Hinata struggled out of the bubblegum haired girl's grip. Sakura, letting go of her arm, started running, looking back at Hinata's slowly disappearing form. "Come on Hinata!"

Hinata decided that she was going to slowly make her way towards doom. Sakura took the elevator up first yelling at Hinata, "I'm going to go up first alright?"

Hinata didn't have a choice anyway. She walked to wait for the elevator when she felt something slippery on the floor, under her foot. She would have fallen back, if it hadn't been for a strong chest that she fell onto.

"You're so clumsy!" the figure behind her said. Realising she had heard that voice before, she whipped her head around. Seeing Sasuke, she started to blush, remembering the events from earlier. (A/N: As in the time when he kissed her.)

"So, where's the lipstick I bought for you? Are you wearing it now?" Sasuke looked down at her lips. "You know that colour would suit you."

"No, I haven't tried it yet. Even though you bought it for me, I don't think any lipstick suits me." Hinata said, lowering her head.

"Hey! What are you two talking about?" Sakura suddenly appeared from nowhere. "I went up there to find you Sasuke, but I only found Naruto. He said you hadn't arrived yet, so I went back down to see where you were."

"So, what were you two talking about anyway?" Naruto repeated the question.

"Oh! Nothing much… Right?" Sasuke replied.

"Uh… yeh," Hinata agreed.

Sasuke, being the one to observe, found that Sakura was wearing the same colour to that of Hinata's lipstick.

"Are you wearing that new lipstick?"

"Oh! You are very observant, Sasuke." Sakura giggled. "How do you know?"

"Well this girl I once kissed owns the same one." Sasuke looked back at Hinata.

"Who? Is she your girlfriend?" Sakura asked, slightly jealous.

"Well, I can't really say…" Sasuke dragged on.

"Oi! We should go now. Remember this place is hard to reserve," Naruto said, sick of the fact that Sasuke was getting all of Sakura's attention.

"Yeh…" Hinata said. "Um… I'm just going to go to the toilet. I'll be back soon! Don't wait up for me." Hinata waved to them before finding a toilet. Closing the door to the cubicle, she banged her head against it. No! I hope today won't end up the same as last time!

She waited for a while, before washing her hands and returning to the restaurant. Finding they in fact hadn't waited for her, she started walking in the direction of the elevator. Sasuke had told them to all wait for Hinata to return.

"Hinata! We're over here!" Sakura called out.

Looking around the place, she spotted them out. Leaving her head hanging, she slowly stalked over to the group. Sasuke, recognising the same look she had the other day, came to her rescue, sort of…

"She's not looking well," He told them, "I'm going to take her home."

"But Sasuke…!"Sakura whined.

"Naruto you can take Sakura up." Sasuke informed his friend.

"Alright! Come on Sakura, it will be better when we're alone!"

Naruto grabbed her arm and went in the direction of the elevator.

Sasuke pulled Hinata out of the crowd, set proceeding to Hinata's house. Forgetting he actuallt had no idea where it was, he asked her, "Uh, where do you live?"

"I think it's this way…" Not even sure where she was going herself.

"Oh! I know, I'll take you the opposite way the bus route goes."

"Yeh, good idea,"

They walked in silence for most of the walk, Hinata, felt her cheeks heating up from the contact of their shoulders' brushing against each other. It felt nice to have someone to care for her. She found herself staring at his tall figure. His slightly broad shoulders and his hard chest she fell onto before, all this was making her blush more. Sasuke turned his head around at the feeling of being watched. Looking down at Hinata, he caught her staring at him, before she darted her head towards the ground.

Hinata's heart was beating like crazy. Ah! He caught me staring at him! Her blush deepened as she felt his hand brush hers. Quickly pulling her hand away, Sasuke looked at her questioningly.

She shook her head and sighed. It felt good to have someone walking next to her.

Yay! I'm done… It's kind of short. Well at least I think it is. It's about 2,000 words. I hope that's enough. Please review!
