Killing Me
by Boyarina
Hyuuga Neji
She doesn't have any brothers. The only male figures that she constantly interacts with are her sensei, Asuma-sensei, that Nara Shikamaru and that Akimichi Chouji--all whom have not shown even just a smudge of fierce and unswerving loyalty to her; nor have graced her with as much authority that I have generously given to Hinata-sama so she would realize that she MAY NOT land herself in trouble.
Had I been in her team, I would have certainly erected a meter-wide and a mile-tall barricade around her the very instant I have gottent a whiff that she would do anything like this. She could scream inside, use all her strength to beat the walls down, but is is not until after I had gotten my message across would I let her out.
Had she been my relative, I would NOT have ALLOWED her to hurt herself.
I honestly dont know what to do with her unconscious form limp here on my arms. With the cold reception that I have received earlier, I am probably better off without her. Also in her state of almost undress, bruised and obviously battered to the inch of her life body, anyone who sees me holding her crudely like this, might just think that I did this to her.
Indeed, more and more, I could see that on this very day I could do VERY WELL without her.
Not that anyone would blame a Hyuuga outright, but still speculations would be made. With me the only person identified to be with her tonight, there's going to be no evidence that is damning enough. Well, none will, not UNLESS Yamanaka Ino herself would step up and actually ACCUSE me of doing this (whatever this is) to her.
By God, if this happens, I really should SERIOUSLY think about leaving her here.
I really should. Leave her here, I mean. Besides, I have nowhere to bring her. No, I will not bring her to her parent's house looking like this. I am not dumb enough to do that. I may be (stupidly) chivalrous at times, but this certainly is not one of those times.
If you are thinking it, I am not certainly afraid of her parents. Though the Yamanaka Clan is very famous for their uninhibited rage--they are certainly more bark than bite. More so, I wouldn't want to run the risk of her parents foolishly accusing me of doing this to their precious daughter which might create a feud between our two families that might lead to disastrous dissension of the whole village.
You do know where I am going with this don't you? Yes, I am going to leaver her here. Well not here, HERE, but probably, I'll dump her on one of the motel rooms in this area. This is the easiest, the most convenient, most beneficial (for the both of us) move that I could think of.
...will you stop looking at me like that? I am leaving her here and that is my FINAL say on the matter.
Stop it. I am NOT going to take her home. NO WAY.
Damnit.
Will you QUIT that!
I am NOT going to bring her home.
I AM NOT.
Damnit, sense of honor! Quit HOUNDING me!
...why the hell am I arguing with myself?
Okay. Think straight. I wouldn't let my stupid sense of honor overcome my commensensical decision. I would leave her in a room that I would make impenetrable (by the use of booby traps)--so at least she would be safe; so I could make sure no one does this thing to her again. This is the best decision.
She's looking very, very vulnerable right now.
I know I should not even be noticing this. I know I should NOT EVEN be looking at her. But, when her head rolled to the side and she had started to softly mumble something, my attention was instantly riveted.
"I was...", groan "..waiting..."
I heard her clearly enough, but still I lifted her up using both of my hands so she could lay comfortably on my lap. SHe seemed to be wheezing her words out before, at least now, she'd be able to say things without any trouble.
"..moronic heroes...", sigh "..always late..."
Her last statement would have definitely been shoT down if she had been facing the Hyuuga inquisitor panel at this very moment and had been accusing me of these claims. For one, I am NOT a moron. Two, I am NOT a hero. Three, I am NEVER late. I fact, if I do say so myself, I got here just in the nick of time.
"Leave...me...", her breath hitched, "be."
I nodded my head, silently agreeing with her.
Damn right.
