There'd been strange happenings in Konohana lately. No one had noticed it since Hinata still blushed around Naruto, but it took awhile for people to notice that she wasn't blushing because of him.

The balance in the world had gone terribly wrong.

No one knew how, or why, they just watched in awe, and some in despair, as Hyuuga Hinata's crush from when they were young had transferred on to Uchiha Sasuke.

She'd blushed at Naruto in admiration as he brought Sasuke back.

She'd finally blushed the fifth time that she left Sasuke's hospital room, horrified by the speed of which her heart was beating.

She'd blushed when she'd noticed him standing behind Naruto, face just a little bit curious.

She'd passed out of embarrassment because of the close proximity they'd been in moments before, when he'd finally gotten out of the clearing.

And finally, she'd walked by Naruto, only sparing him a glance, before continuing on her way, the worried frown not disappearing until she'd used her Byakugan and realized that he was with the Hokage.

And, strangely enough, she didn't notice his slight limp later that day for angering Tsunade for smirking stupidly when they were discussing the serious matter of his re-instatement in Konoha.

For Hinata it was, as usual, an unrequited love she'd just have to bear.

For Sasuke, he'd just found himself in an interesting situation that he was determined in pursuing.

OoOoO

A/N: Just a one-shot that's been bugging me for a while. I wrote it short and to the point, since that was the way it came to me when I was trying to go to sleep. Obviously, this is slight AU since I have strong doubts that Sasuke'll even be able to live in Konoha the way the manga is going.

Don't like the pairing? You shouldn't have read.

Bad grammar? Well, duh.
