      The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human. Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections. The moon does not fight. It attacks no one. It does not worry. It does not try to crush others. It keeps to its course, but by its very nature, it gently influences. What other body could pull an entire ocean from shore to shore? The moon is faithful to its nature and its power is never diminished.

      No matter now many years she had been present in these meetings, Hinata would never cease to be nervous about them. Her father, someone whose presence would usually be oppressive now became a security blanket, someone to draw the Uchiha’s eyes away from her. Those obsidian orbs made her nervous, she could not read them. She missed the times where she’d be sent off with the matriarch, to play with Sasuke or simply keep Uchiha Mikoto company. 

      Now that she was older, training to take over for her father, she had to bare the scrutinising gaze of Uchiha Fugaku and his eldest son, Uchiha Itachi. Hinata fought the urge to hide behind her father, and managed to keep her head high and speak when prompted to. Her soft voice a drastic change from the ones of the men in the room. Despite her preparations, she couldn’t stop a sigh of relief when the official meeting between clan heads was over, and both men went off to drink tea. 

      The Hyuuga heiress walked to the engawa, looking out over the nearest houses and sighing once again. The Uchiha compound always felt so homey. ❛  Itachi-san, you don’t have to stay back. This is your home after all.  ❜ She smiled, turning around for her moonlight eyes to gaze upon the Uchiha heir. 

      ❛  I don’t think I will ever get used to these meetings.  ❜ She admitted, a dusting of pink blooming over her cheeks. ❛  Uchiha-sama is…very intimidating.  ❜ Despite her words, Hinata addressed the clan leader and Itachi’s father with respect. He was scary, but most people were to her.
