Summary: As a typical bad boy cliché, Naruto screams with his look and his rock-metal band his hatred towards society. For him, he is only good at writing words on a piece of paper but Hinata sees in him more that just a lost teenager on the path of life.
Author's note: This OS has been inspired by an idea of Hippyredfox

Again, want made him skip his afternoon class but what could he do about it? When he had inspiration, he had to write. When he had inspiration, his fingers would grab the half of the pencil stuck behind his ear for mark words on his creased paper.

"I speak but nobody listens
It's how the fukin' society is
I scream but nobody listens
'til you touch me with your hands
Like I'm the sexiest Wonder of the Ancient World"

He stopped in this track, put the paper on the wall and hummed the lyrics while tapping the pace with his finger before crossing the last sentence out. It didn't fit with the rest. Maybe he should write it in Japanese. Thinking about it, he bit the tip of his pencil and when he saw the end of this problem, footsteps were heard behind him.

"Oi! Uzumaki!"

'Shit!' Shoving his paper and pencil deep down in his dark jeans' pocket, Naruto turned right in a small alley with the purpose of getting rid of his pursuers. Unfortunately, he ran into two large torsos. Four arms caught him, he grumbled and the person he had to avoid at this moment appeared before him.

"You're trying to hid again kid?"

"What do ya think? That I'm a coward?"

Glaring at all three of them, Naruto get away from Kabuto's crew and straighten his black leather jacket.

"Not at all. I know you're a man of honor kid and I know you don't like to see me mad so pay me what you took from me and everything will be good between the two of u-"

The blonde's saliva landed on the top of his shoe, giving him a grimace of disgust.

"Stop calling me « kid » I already proved you what I'm capable of and I'd pay you back with my body so don't bother me and go fuck yourself."

With an raised eyebrow, Kabuto smicked before slipping his hand in his pockets and nodding to his two men. Before he could even react, Naruto's jaw bangged the ground and feets were kicking his sides and his stomach. Grumbling like a wild animal, he tried to roll on his back to defend himself but Juugo was keeping him still. All he could see at his level was the men chief's Italian shoes.

"I see I didn't miss ya" with a smug smile, the blonde watched his saliva trickled down his shoelaces.

That very same shoe stepped on his hand, making him yeled in pain. But as always, nobody will hear him. He was never the center of the attention. What for? He was an orphan that no one wanted.

"Let us start again, shall we?" Kabuto asked looking down on Naruto. "But before that, you smocked my grass so you will pay me. And clean up the mess you just made."

Clenching his teeth, Naruto said no words, battling with a hateful gaze Kabuto's. He knew the short-sighted man wanted to hear that either he couldn't pay him back or to hear him beg to postpone the payment day. It was clear that he didn't have enough money to pay Kabuto back now. He was supposed to avoid him until the concert tomorrow night then, once he'd have his tip, he'd have pay his dealer. Unfortunately, he had found him quicker that he'd expected. Nevermind! Even if he had to deal with the change of plans, Naruto wasn't going to surrender. He had seen and suffered worse at the orphanage.

At his silence and his fearless gaze which show that he wasn't impressed, Kabuto whistled and beating started again. Shielding himself, Naruto tried to take as much kicks as possible but at a point, he felt like dying until he saw Kabuto busy clearing his saliva off his expensive shoe with a tissue. The only way to stop the snake is to beheaded it. In a rush of adrenaline, Naruto caught the man's ankles and made him fall on his ass. He screamed in pain which made the other two stop what they were doing and the blonde used this paused to jump on him.

"No one hits someone with glasses!" he shouted while protecting his face with his arms.

While his cloudy blue eyes was telling him that he didn't give a fuck, a smirked stretched Naruto's pierced face. His all tattooed hands clenched into fists, he was ready to bit the shit out of Kabuto's perfect face but another face appeared before his eyes.

<< Your hands are very important so for now on, you have to take good care of them Naruto-kun. >>

Hinata's smile cleared his mind and the little voice in his head reminded him that he couldn't injured his hands. He promised it to his friend.

Because he hesitated, one of the men of his pray grabbed him by the shoulders but, back to his senses, Naruto freed himself and threw his elbrow between the man's legs. With this parasite knocked out, he turned his head back to Kabuto who was wiggling and trying to calm him down by offering a new deal with him but a knee banged with great speed the blonde's nose.

'Three, fuck, they're always three!' Blood was spread on the ground and on clothes while, nearly knocked out, he pressed his fingers around his nose. Cursing, he lost balance, letting Kabuto escape. The world rapidly spun around Naruto but he recognized the trio pickpocketed him, taking the few things he had.

"Don't worry Uzumaki, we aren't done with you."

Saying that, they turned on their heels and left, laughing. Indeed, they will meet again. Revenge is a dish best served cold. And this time, Naruto sweared it, he was going to take back all of his belongings. Nevermind the promise, he will found them and with his group, they won't hold back.

Waiting for his headache and nose ache to calm down, he rolled on his back and looked at the clouds in the sky. Feeling the dry blood on his skin, he couldn't help but curse again. Without a doubt, Hinata will be pretty mad about all of this. Once he found balance again on his legs, he dragged himself to the main street, came close to a car parked along the pavement and saw his reflection through a window.

Shutting his eyes close, he pinched his nose and, passing his hand through his hair, he pulled hard on it roots with the purpose of trying to calm his shivers of rage down. Clearly, he couldn't see Hinata today.

The next day, with half of his body bandaged under his clothes, Naruto was on his way to the bus stop which was located in the rich neighbourhood of the city. He was late but his smile wouldn't leave his lips because he had taken his pencil and paper back. At the thought that Kabuto might be crying again because of his now useless male member, he laughed.

It was at that moment he saw her. More beautiful each time he looked at her, he had to stopped because his heart was throbbing hard in his chest and a warm feeling was squeezing his stomach. Sitting on the bus stop bench, Hinata was playing with her fingers while the wind blew through her long hair. She was radiate joy exactly like the first time he saw her.

Flashback

That day he had skipped his boring maths class again and, because no one was waiting for him home, he strolled around the city, waiting for the inspiration to struck again.

Without knowing how or why, he founded himself in the rich neighbourhood of Konoha and, oddly, the symmetry of the place made ideas grow in his mind. So, he sat on the bus stop bench and stared at his surroundings until a teenage girl came in his vision. Like him, it looked like she was wandering because her head was up and she was looking around like she was afraid to miss the most important detail of the place. Intrigued, Naruto never looked away from her before recognizing who she was.

She was Hyuuga Hinata, the new girl at school who never spoke even when she was with her classmates. In the end, she wasn't strolling around since she was one of those lucky people to live in those luxurious houses. Not wanting to have problems with a girl like her, Naruto looked away but at the corner of his eye, he saw her stop then take her phone. She wrote something and, suddenly, crossed the road to come close to him.

Without giving him the time to run away, she showed him her phone screen. Surprised that she came to him, a boy who rather terrified passers-by with his look, Naruto looked at her and was impressed by the intensity of her lavender eyes. For the first time, he really felt like being seen by someone and it was scary. 'Can she see through me? If yes, why don't she is afraid of what she can see?'

Coming back to reality, he understood that she was asking for help and he read what was in front of him. She wanted to go to the house the GPS had found. Without taking the time to understand what was happening, he heard himself offer to go with her at this house he had seen earlier. With a grin, she bowed a few time before him until he made her stop, uneasy.

In silence, they walked to the huge house than rang at the front door. They waited only a few seconds before a man opens the door. His gaze first fell on Naruto and his eyes widened at the bad boy style the blonde had. However, his attitude changed when he saw the young girl.

"Hinata-sama! Thank you Kami-sama! Where were you? Your father is very angry that Neji-sama didn't pick you up from school."

Like the spectator he was, Naruto understood that she was in fact at her house. But why did she ask him to help her? Didn't she know her neighbourhood? And why was she smiling like that in front of this man who looked worried, agitated and angry? And why did she wrote on her phone since she is Japanese and not a foreigner like he thought she was?

Suddenly, rising her hands before the man's eyes, she answered to all the teenager's silent questions. Hinata started to make quick gestures which seemed to calm the man like a magic trick. Struck by the facts, Naruto realized that she was currently deaf and that her only way to be heard and understood by others was the signs her perfect petite hands was doing... exactly like him.
