It started a few months ago when Uzumaki Naruto began to notice a significant change to his wife, Uzumaki Hinata. At first it was barely noticeable; the lack of response when coming home from work, the bag under her eyes making her look more older than she let on, the smile that would always adorn her features became just a twitch from the corners of her now light pink lips, her pale skin now becoming an ill color, and the way she now seemed weak and would curl into herself when stepping outside. But then he began to notice; the lack of blush that would always be present on her cheeks, the refusal of going outside with her friends when invited, the soulless look she always had when he found her in their home, the way her body began to resemble that of a skeleton with every passing day, and the way she just didn't seem to enjoy life anymore.
And they were so close—so close—to becoming two, no longer being one. But he was Uzumaki Naruto, Rokudaime of Konohagakure, the number one hyperactive ninja, and hero, and he was determined to keep them from becoming two. So he began to shower her with praises from "You look lovely today, Hina-chan" to "You're the only woman I see, for now and forever more" and he was pleased with himself to see that blush return to her cheeks. He began to surprise her with flowers and cinnamon rolls and love letters. He began to take her to dates, leaving his office early and planning the whole thing two days beforehand, because he needed everything to be perfect, for her. He would arrive early and hug her in their living room and when questioned he'll grin and whisper to her ear, "Because I love you, my hime" or take her out for a stroll around the village and lead her to a hill that had the perfect view of the night sky and kiss her from her fingers to her shoulders to her neck and to her mouth. He began to feed her ramen, his homemade ramen, and make silly noises while lowering the spoon to her awaiting mouth and laugh when she giggled about his actions. He would declare how much he loved her in front of their friends and village and yell from the Hokage Mountain, "I love my Hina-hime soooo much!" He started to hug her with all his heart and would nearly cry when his emotions caught up to him; when he saw how nearly close he was to losing her and how happy, extremely happy, he is to have her in his arms.
And then, the changes were dramatic. She began to laugh more and resumed to helping around the village; she would accept the invitations and go out with their friends with a smile on her gorgeous face; the way she'll run to his arms not caring if people were staring and kiss him soundlessly with all her might. The way she began to gain back her figure and blush more frequently and smile and share her love to all. The way her eyes shined more with an emotion that made him kiss her every time they saw each other. The way she would hug him and say "I love you Naruto-kun" with a blush on her cheeks and with a kiss that would lead them to their bedroom. And one night while hugging her, it hit him like a tidal wave.
"That a woman is the reflection of her man."
