[A week ago Hinata thought she would be okay. She’d give her father and the council’s announcement some time to settle with her and she’d carry on, maybe work out some fabulous plan with Neji to convince the council to revaluate their decision. Except Neji was avoiding her and it looked like he was going to continue to do so for awhile yet, as such she pulls her scroll to her and scribbles out a quick note to Obito.

She has to tell people eventually, she may as well start with her sensei.]

Obito,

I uh, got engaged early last week. I would have said something sooner, but I needed to let it sink in first.

[She has to think about that for a moment. Either option was good, but then there was a high possibility that she was going to end up crying and that wasn't something she wanted to do in public if she could help it.]

Obito,

Apartment, please.

[He fully meant, and actually was likely to manage, what he wrote this time.]

Hinata,

I'll be there on time. Promise.

Obito

[gentledheart]

Obito,

Okay. I'll see you then.

Hinata
