True Feelings
Author's Note: After much procrastination, I've finally brought this story over from Fanfiction.net, though it isn't finished yet. The Idea for this story came from a Naruto flash animation I saw on about how the Uchiha and Hyuuga bloodlines formed an ultimate bloodline. So yeah, read and enjoy, and tell me how you feel later on :-D
_____
All was quiet within the Uchiha Manor on that cool late summer afternoon. Sasuke lay underneath one of the cherry blossom trees that overlooked the Uchiha Lake. His best friend, teammate, and lover Naruto was softly cradled in his arms, only stopping to stroke his soft blond hair. Naruto looked up and smiled softly. “Do you think we’ll be together forever Sasuke?”
“I believe so…at least I think we will.” Sasuke said running his fingers through his uke’s hair, staring intently back into his eyes “I don’t see a reason why we wouldn’t be together forever.”
Naruto’s smile grew bigger and he gave Sasuke a quick innocent kiss. Though they had know each other since they were 10, they never saw their relationship coming 8 years later, especially after what they had been through together...It wasn’t until a month before that they discovered they actually loved each other. “ I love you Sasuke” He said, a deep tinge of crimson rising on his cheeks, “I’ve never said it until now, but I love you-”
“UCHIHA SASUKE!” A voice yelled in the distance. Sasuke looked at Naruto as if to say something, and then at the pathway that led back up the hill. The man was a messenger from Hyuuga Clan; Sasuke could tell immediately from the emblem on his chest. Gently moving Naruto off his stomach, and motioning him to stay where he was, Sasuke slowly began to walk up the hill towards the man. “Can I help you?” Sasuke said, “No one is allowed on the Uchiha property without a permission or-”
“Not to interrupt you Uchiha, but I have reasoning behind my intrusion today” The messenger replied to him abruptly, “But I have a message from Hyuuga Hiashi, head of the Hyuuga main house.” Sasuke looked skeptically at the man, who held out a scroll to him. “What is it?” Sasuke asked grabbing the scroll from the messenger’s hand. “It’s about your Arranged Marriage.” Sasuke started at the messenger wide-eyed. “What Did you just say to me?” He asked, a rather large and throbbing vein over his left eye. “You heard me correctly Uchiha,” The messenger replied, “Your arranged marriage.” Sasuke looked the man up and down, trying to decide if he was lying to him. “Why was I never made aware of this by my parents, or even the Hyuuga Clan earlier?” Sasuke said glaring, “Why was it brought up only now?”
“Hinata-sama, your betrothed, will be turning 18 in 4 months,” The messenger responded, “On the first day of the new year, you shall be wed, as agreed by your father and the head of the Hyuuga clan, in hopes of forming a new, more powerful bloodline. The proof is in the scroll I‘ve just given you if you don’t believe me.”
Sasuke hesitantly opened the scroll and read it’s contents, staring wide-eyed in disbelief. Not only what he said was true, but it was also because of Itachi, his older brother that he was placed in this mess. If Itachi had never betrayed the family, he would be the one to marry Hinata…but then again, he wouldn’t wish Itachi on her. Itachi did kill his own family, what’s to say he would’ve killed Hinata in the process?
“Hiashi has also requested that you come to the Hyuuga estate this Friday to start your courtship of Hinata-sama.” Sasuke cocked one of his eyebrows up. “Nothing was mentioned about me courting Hinata-sama” Sasuke said, anger rising in his tone of voice, “Therefore, I don’t have to do it.”
“Courtship is a requirementbefore marriage, and has been in not only the Hyuuga Clan for generations, but the Uchiha clan as well.” The messenger said informing him rudely, “To break tradition will not only bring dishonor onto your name, but it would also force you out of the village.”
Sasuke stared the messenger, a cold, deep hatred within the black orbs called his eyes. He didn’t have much of a choice. “Hiashi expects you to arrive for dinner a sundown. Do not be late.” The messenger bowed in respect of Sasuke and left him standing alone on top of the hill. Sasuke pumped his hand into a fist. He was not happy at all about this marriage. He wanted Naruto. He loved Naruto, and nothing could change it.
“ Sasuke-Kun”
Sasuke turned around to see Naruto walking up the hill behind him, a grin on his face as always. “Sasuke-kun, you were talking to that man for a long time.” He said cocking his head to the side innocently, “Was there a problem?” Sasuke looked at his uke, with a sad sort of look on his face. He had to do what’s best for Naruto. The look worried Naruto however. “Sasuke, what’s with the look?” he asked confused, “Your worrying me.”
“Naruto, I think It’s best we don’t see each other anymore.”
“What do you mean?” Naruto asked his lover confused.
“It’s pretty easy to understand Naruto.” Sasuke said lying through his teeth, “I don’t want to see you anymore.”
Naruto’s lip started to quiver slightly. “I just told you that I loved you, and now you want nothing to do with me?” He said, sadness is his tone, “I… I don’t understand it.” Seeing Naruto upset pained Sasuke greatly. He wanted to sweep Naruto into his arms and kiss the pain away, but he couldn’t. If it wasn’t for his arranged marriage to Hinata he could. “It’s easy to understand,” Sasuke said repeating himself again, “ I never loved you.” Naruto stared at Sasuke in disbelief, tears starting to swell in his eyes. “Your lying!” He said getting worked up, “Your fucking lying!”
“Does it look like I am?” Sasuke said sternly, trying to fight the pain he was causing Naruto. Naruto looked at him intently. “Kiss me then!” Naruto said angrily, tears starting to trickle down his face, “If you don’t love me, kiss me! Let me decide if you truly don’t!”
“I will do no such thing Uzumaki” Sasuke said, the pain of lying to his sweet Naruto stabbing his repeatedly in the heart, “And you can’t make-”
Naruto crushed his lips against Sasuke’s trying to get some type of emotion out of him. The waves of emotion passing through Sasuke was intense. He desperately wanted to show his Uke affection, but he couldn’t, not anymore. Naruto backed off, and tears trailed down his eyes like a waterfall. “I told you Naruto, I never loved you. In fact, you were a play thing.” Naruto’s eyes grew wider as the tears fell faster. “I know your lying Sasuke” Naruto said emotionally, “and I’m going to find out why your denying that you loved me.”
“Do what you want” Sasuke said dying inside, “As long as your off my property, I don’t really give a flying fuck.”

“Well Isn’t that exciting?” Neji said trying to cheer his cousin up, “Sasuke will make a great husband. After all, he’s strong, intelligent, and not to mention I respect him.”
Crimson flushed upon Hinata’s cheeks. “I guess…” She said timidly, “But he’s not … not who I want to be with.” Neji looked at his cousin confused. “What does that mean?”
“I…I never liked Sasuke-sama like that…” She said softly.
“It was because you loved Naruto wasn’t it?” Neji said accusing her cheekily.
“What? N-no!” She said, her entire face a deep shade of red now, “It was never like that either!” Neji laughed softly at his cousin. “Not to be rude Hinata, but I think that everyone who knows you well knows that you’ve always had a crush on Naruto.”
“W-was it that obvious?” She said twiddling her fingers.
“Would you like me to get your teammates in here?” Neji said speaking the truth, “I’m sure Kiba and Shino wouldn’t mind backing me up on this because it’s the truth.” Hinata grew silent, not answering his question. “Exactly.”
“Either way, father wouldn’t let me back out of this…I-I’m already considered a disgrace to him” Hinata said timidly, “No matter how hard I train now, he will not recognize me as he has you.” Neji grabbed his cousin’s hand softly, trying to ease her concern. “In a way, that’s great for you. If things do work out with Sasuke, then you can live a happy life, and you wont have to worry about it.”
“I guess so,” Hinata said, trying to appear happy for her concerned cousin, “If anything….maybe Sasuke could have a crush….on me” She felt her face become flushed and hot again, causing Neji to laugh. “That could be,” he said replying to her, “As long as you act like yourself, and show that your wife material, Sasuke cannot complain.” Once again Hinata smiled timidly for her cousin in gratitude. “Thanks Neji…”
“Your welcome Cousin.” He replied back, messing up her hair in the process, “You know I have to look out for the head family.” Hinata smiled again. Even if Neji was in the secondary house and had despised her when they were little, she could not picture what she would do without him now. Neji Stood up from his seat, waved to his cousin goodbye, and left the room.
He clenched his chest tightly. Even though she was his cousin, something attracted Neji to Hinata. He wasn’t sure if it was the fact she was so timid and naïve, or whether it was of how she changed over the years. Yeah it helped that Hinata bloomed into a beautiful young women, but there was so many things he respected about her, so many things he could never be.
How lucky Naruto was to have the affection of Hinata, though he never recognized it, even after knowing Hinata all those years. It just came to show you how thick-headed Naruto was. Neji let out a sigh. He would even love to be Sasuke in this situation. Even though Hinata didn’t love Sasuke, at least he would be married to her, able to care, comfort and tend to his delicate sweet cousin’s needs. How lucky the two of them were. Neji let out another sigh before staring down the pathway leading to the courtyard. He wish there was a way to express how he felt to Hinata, without dishonoring the family and without coming off as perverted. Incest was greatly frowned upon in Konoha, even if it was between families.
Once within the courtyard, Neji planted himself under a Willow tree, and laid back. Closing his eyes, he imagined how life would’ve been different if he was born into another clan…one where it would be possible to love Hinata.
