The war was finally over. The Allied Shinobi Force finally overtook the enemy, Madara Uchiha. Reconstruction began immediately. The shinobi from their native countries went home, and some were emotionally scared because of the losses of their comrades. Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha were pronounced heroes, even though Sasuke had to serve jail time due to his felonies prior to his arrival to the battlefield. When NAruto came home, he felt a bit empty. He still felt upset about Jiraya's death. A month after the war ended, Naruto went to the Hokage's mansion and told Tsunade that he would embark on a journey, world wide and follow the foot steps from his master. Of course, she let him go.
After 5 years, Naruto decided to come back home. He matured drastically, but still kept his immaturity, and is showed from time to time. Naruto's body changed; he had some more muscle than he had before he left. Naruto Resembled Minato, also keeping the whiskers he had on his face. Naruto also had gotten taller by a few inches. He was now 5'10. He was very excited to see the familiar faces from the friends he knew and loved. Naruto approached the main gates, and was greeted my Koketsu and Izumo.
"Well if it isn't Naruto Uzumaki. You decided to come back?" Asked Koketsu.
"Yeah, I'm coming back for good. This trip was an emotional expirience. I enjoyed it, but I love Konoha Village." Said Naruto.
"Wow, I didn't believe you had grown up so fast." Izumo teased. "I didn't think so either." Naruto said laughing.
"Well, I must be on my way to see Lady Tsunade, she might want to see me. Good bye!" "Bye Naruto." Said Izumo.
Naruto walked through the village, astounded on the progress it had while being rebuilt. Up the road, Naruto heard familiar voices leaving a restaurant.
"Wow that was good beef!" Said Choji as he was cleaning his teeth with his toothpick.
"Eh, I had better with Asuma Sensei." Shikamaru said as he felt depressed on the memories he had of Asuma.
"Hey guys!" Naruto said in a happy manor as he greeted his old friends. "Naruto! Your back!" Said Choji as he was suprised to see naruto.
"Wow Naruto, you seem very mature and different." Said Shikamaru in disbelief. "Yeah, well being on your own can change a person's feeling towards alot of things. I had flashbacks on how I acted, and i was disgusted on how I acted." Said Naruto.
"Well you were a drag back then, a total drag." Said Shikamaru in a mellow voice. "Yeah Naruto you were a goofball back then." Choji said backing Shikamaru
Naruto, Shikamaru and Choji laughed as the three shared memories of the past.
"Guys, I must be leaving. I must see Lady Tsu-."Naruto was cut off as he saw Ino Running towards him. "Naruto! Oh my god you are finally back!" Said Ino in a very hapy manor. She hugged Naruto. She had missed him, as did the rest of his friends.
"Hey Ino! It has been a while hasn't it?" Naruto said in discomfort. Naruto felt different because Ino wasn't very nice to him. "It's great to see you Ino, but I must see Lady Tsunade immediately. See you guys later! I will catch up with you soon." Naruto walked away in a hurry to visit the Hokage.
"Bye!" Said the group. "Wow naruto looks more handsome than he used to." Said Ino in a very shocked way.
"Ino relax, he is our friend and comrade you know, and I doubt he would like you as you like him." Said Shikamaru in a very mellow tone.
"Gee thanks for ruining my thoughts Shikamaru." As Ino tilted her head down in sadness.
Naruto reached the Hokage Mansion, and was prepared to talk to Tsunade about his adventures. He greatly missed Tsunade. As he walked to the door, he knocked.
"Come in please." Said Shizune in a tired voice.
Naruto opened the door to see Sakura, Shizune, and Lady Tsunade in the room.
"N-Naruto?" Sakura was very suprised to see her old teammate. "Oh my god it really is you!" As she jumped on him hugging him tightly.
"Yes Sakura I am finally home!" Naruto said. He was very happy to see Sakura. Although, he did not feel the same way as he did. Naruto's crush on Sakura appeared to vanish.
"Welcome back Naruto!" Tsunade said as she walked up to him. "Well Well you seem to be getting taller now, have you learned anything from your time away from the village?" Tsunade doubted that he did, she believed he was still an immature knucklehead.
"Actually Lady Tsunade, I did learn. I learned many things. I also felt like I have matured, and feel capable of having responsibility of myself."
Wow the kid actually learned manors, he seems very mature now, Naruto even called me Lady Tsunade, instead of Granny. He has really grown up. Jiraya would be very proud of his student.
"Congratulations Naruto. Also, I have a gift for you. I saved it for you until you returned to Konoha. I know because of the invasion of Pain, you were left homeless." Tsunade tossed 3 keys on a key chain.
"Here. I want you to take this, for my appreciation. You are almost like a brother to me, and I cannot have you homeless."
Naruto was shocked and in awe. "Wow, Thank you so much!"
"Naruto, do not worry about it. I suggest you visit the house and see some old teammates. It is getting late."
"You are right, I must see my friends and start un packing my clothes!"
"Bye Naruto! I hope you have fun at your new house!" Said Sakura with a smile on her face.
"Thank you all and have a nice day!" Said Naruto with a big smile on his face.
As Naruto exited the building, he began searching for his new house. Naruto was a bit confused, but he still kept his cool while looking. While looking, he stumbled upon Hinata.
"Hinata, is that you?" Naruto was amazed on seeing Hinata. She looked gorgeous. He instantly began a liking towards her, even though he was gone for such a long time.
"Naruto-kun? Is that you?" Hinata did not believe that was Naruto. He looked differently than when he did prior to his journey.
"Yes it is me, Naruto! Hinata did I really change tht much?" Naruto smirked. "Y-yes. You look completely different." Hinata's face was turning very red. She was much more attracted to him now than she was back then. She noticed his muscles were bigger, he was getting much more taller, and his spiked blonde hair was getting longer.
"N-Naruto, you look much like the fourth Hokage." Hinata was blushing because of how attractive he was.
"Do I really look like my father?" Naruto felt complimented. He was falling for Hinata.
"Yes you do." She giggled because of his confusion. Naruto also turned into a bright red. He was blushing.
"Hinata, I am a bit lost. Could you help me find my new home?" Naruto smoothly asked her.
"Why yes I would love to help, but when did you get a new home?" "Lady Tsunade gave me the keys to it about 30 minutes ago, when I went to see her."
"Okay. Lets go search for your house Naruto-kun."
As they walked around the streets of Konoha, they were at an awkward silence. Hinata still blushing on how handsome Naruto was, and Naruto getting lost in thought about Hinata.
Wow. Just wow. Hinata is VERY beautiful. How did I fall inlove with her that quick? I feel like I am in a trance, and Hinata is producing it. I want Hinata to be mine. How could I have been so oblivious of her beauty? I will not let this opportunity go to waste.
Naruto smiled at his thought.
"Whats wrong?" Hinata asked. "Oh nothing. Im just very happy to see you Hinata." Hinata blushed.
I can't believe Naruto is back! He looks very attractive, and seems to have grown up a bit more. He turned out to be a great person. After all Naruto had been through, he still kept his Nindo, his Ninja Way.
They both came up to this decently sized house. The house was colored tan, and had a a pathway to the entrance to the house. The path had beautiful cut out limestone which the Konoha Symbol was cut out in a nice pattern. The front yard was medium sized; just the way Naruto liked it.
"Wow Naruto, that house looks nice!" Hinata said in shock.
Naruto came up with a great idea! "Hinata, would you like to be my first guest?' Hinata blushed. "Yes of course Naruto-kun, I would love that."
Hinata was beat red. She was happy. She felt as she would faint at any given time. Naruto opened the door. He was suprised to already see furniture taking space in the living room, dining room, and the kitchen.
"Wow, this place is nice." Naruto said in awe. "Yes Naruto, take care of this house!"
Hinata trailed off in her imagination. I wish I lived here with Naruto. Every morning I would wake up next to Naruto, and cook him breakfast before he left for a mission or any activities. "I love you Hinata" Naruto said as he caressed her face. " I love you too Naruto."
Hinata was interupted by the sound of Naruto speaking. "Hinata are you there?" Naruto chuckled as he realized she was in deep thought.
"Yes, sorry, What's up?" She wondered what he said, as she was not paying attention.
"Hinata, How long has it been since last time I saw you?" Naruto asked.
"Its been about 5 years." Hinata responded quickly, wanting to hear where this was going.
"Hinata, I had a sudden realization." She was listening and nodded her head in confusion. "Hinata, I now realized you have been there for me for the longest. Back in the Chuunin exams, you gave me ointments for my scars I had while facing Kiba. You defended me During Pains Invasion of Konoha. Everything inbetween, I appreciate." Naruto said in a sorrow voice.
Hinata blushed as he continued on. "What do you mean Naruto?" She was blushing like no tomorrow. Her heart was pumping fast, she was feeling butterflies in her stomach.
"Hinata, I missed you." Naruto made Hinata almost faint. "Hinata I want to go on a date with you, will you let me take you somewhere out to eat?"
Hinata couldn't believe this. She was so happy, she was excited. Is this really happening? Am I in a dream? This dream is amazing. I hope no one wakes me up yet. She snapped out of her thought, and realized she was not dreaming.
"Yes Naruto-kun, I would love to go on a date with you!" She was happy. She finally was able to go out on a date with Naruto. "Hinata, its getting late, may I walk you home? Hinata's eyes widened. She was still believeing it was a dream.
"Yes, yes Naruto. I would love for you to do that." Naruto smiled as they walked out of his new home.
I cant believe I actually got Hinata on a date with me. She is so beautiful, I can't Imagine my life with out her. She is so gorgeous. I cant wait!
Naruto left the pathway to the Hyuga Complex, where Hinata lived. Naruto had a sudden idea to hold her hand as she walked with her. As he reached for her hand, Hinata saw what he was trying to do. She extended her hand out to his and held his hand. Hinata almost fainted.
He's Holding my hand! He is really holding my hand! Eeee! I feel like the happiest girl in he world!
As they came up to her complex, He was feeling sad about having to wait to see Hinata until tomorrow.
"Hinata, I will pick you up tomorrow around 7:30, and we will go out to eat, I promise this will be a great night."
"Naruto, Thank you for taking me home. I also cannot wait for tomorrow!" Hinata and Naruto smiled at each other.
Naruto reached for a kiss. He slowly moved his lips towards her. Hinata was blushing in the darkest of red, and her heart was skipping many beats. As he leaned in, they kissed. Naruto's lips reached Hinata's. At that moment, they both felt inseperateable. Hinata and Naruto kissed very passionately. Naruto caressed her face as he kissed Hinata. Hinata was so happy she almost cried.
As they broke off the kiss, Naruto said "Goodnight beautiful, I cannot wait to see you tomorrow." Hinata giggled and smiled at him.
"As to you handsome. I will be waiting for you." As Naruto walked away, he was enthusiastic. After Hinata saw him leave, she ran to her room, and fainted. She was completely unaware that he would do that, but she was happy he did. She loved that, she loved him. Naruto was the man in her dreams. As Naruto left for his house, he began to think about what just happened.
She is beautiful. She has the perfect body as a woman, She is stunning. Her eyes in the prettiest shade of light purple, caught his attention like no other. She was amazing. She was strong, beautiful and smart. I want that in my life. I cannot wait to take her out for dinner.
"Hey,Naruto. Isn't that the girl who stood up againt's Pain during the invasion of Konoha?" Kurama was beginning a conversation with Naruto.
"Why yes it is. Why do you ask Kurama?" Naruto was confused of his suden question. "She seems like a very nice girl. Do not mess this up child. Someone like her will not be as quick to find." Kurama said scoffing.
"Of course! I really beileve she is the one. Kurama, I think I might love her." Naruto was not joking about what he said. He felt love for Hinata.
"Bahaha, Naruto. Just remember what I said, Take care of her. From the chakra she gives off, she is a once in a life time girl."
"I will take care of her. I promise that with my life. Kurama, I must sleep now. I need to wake up and prepare for tomorrow." Naruto said as he entered his home and began going upstairs for his bed.
"Very Well then, Naruto. I will speak to you tomorrow."
Naruto began dozing off into space as he thought of Hinata. Moments later, he found himself asleep. Naruto was exhausted on what happened to him today.
