Hinata Hyuga closed her eyes briefly her mind trying to talk her heart out of doing what it was about to do. But she ignored the feeble arguments. Her careful feet continued to tred the path to Naruto Uzumaki's house. It was time; she had decided to tell him how she felt. How for years her heart had formed a burning passion for the blonde demon.

Naruto at 17 was very different from the time when Hinata had first liked him in the academy. But his change had had no affect on her unconditional love for Him.

She alone was blind to his arrogance. Although after years of training with master Jiraiya it had reached a new height. It had seemed that his hormones had finally kicked in, hard. Naruto was constantly horny and sex obsessed. He had also become fairly lazy (although not to Shikamaru's standard) and occasionally rather bad tempered. But all of this Hinata was blind to. Her family and friends had despaired, not knowing what to do.

Along with these draw backs Naruto had become very, very good looking. It had come to a point where Naruto had more fan girls than Sasuke (much to his displeasure) Not only this but Naruto had been seriously training for years now, and this had had a huge affect on his body. To top it all he had grown six inches. Naruto was the best looking ninja in Konaha, everybody said so. Not just the girls, but the boys too. Naruto had become the most popular Ninja in Konaha. This was due to his looks, but also to his new found skill. When you're strong and good looking, people tend to overlook minor flaws like personality. Luckily for Naruto that is.

In all the years since Naruto had returned from training he had hardly given Hinata the time of day. Naruto had no time for the little people and Hinata was one of the lowest of the low.

Finally making it to his house Hinata hesitated outside the door, but only for a second. Then the leaned forward and pushed the doorbell with a trembling finger.
