A/N: Yo this is my first story ever so please review it after you read it. If you are going to bash it though, please tell me where I made my faults.
It's Going to be a Long Way Home
Prologue
"I'm finally home", Naruto thought to himself, "It's been so long that I can't even remember what it was like to be there."
As he started to walk up towards the gates he started to have flashbacks.
Flashback
There he was on the first battle of the war which had started a few months after he had come home from training with Jiraiya. He had also been named Hokage after he had taken back Sasuke from Orochimaru; which is the reason for this war. Konoha and many shinobi from Suna were fighting against Sound and many ninjas from other countries that he had taken over.
"Ok this will be the first battle against Orochimaru and his servants", said Naruto who was readying everyone. Naruto gave the signal and all of them moved out. Naruto had been in the lead with Sasuke right next to his side. When Sasuke had come back he vowed to always protect the hokage. He was still trying to gain back the trust of others since his betrayal. Only a few had still trusted him, there was Sakura, Ino, Neji, Hinata, and more of Naruto's friends.
Flashback End
He then looked back and saw the many shinobi who had come back alive. He felt lucky that so many had survived and was happy about the outcome, although it was not totally over. He still grieved over his lost comrades in arms though. He could never forget their valor and courage out on that field.
"Kakashi I want to thank you for doing all that you could for the leaf village. You were one of the best and I'll be damned if no one acknowledges that, and the rest of you that tried your best I will always remember that," he had said that out loud with a face full of sorrow. Sasuke had seen Naruto's face, he grabbed his back, and gave him one assuring look. Naruto knew that Sasuke was right even though they had died, they had died for this village. The village that they all had loved so much. He had to be strong and lead this village to be a great one, or their sacrifices will have been in vain.
As he was about to open the gates to his beloved village he had been tackled by a strange shadow. He looked up and saw a splendid and beautiful Hyuuga. It had been Hinata who had tackled him. She and Naruto have been going out ever since he had gotten back
Flashback
It had been a week since Naruto had come back from his journey and he was called on to come by the Hyuuga compound that evening. He was told nothing, but to come, and to be well dressed. Since he had nothing better than what he was currently wearing; which was his brand new black and orange jumpsuit he got from Jiraiya, he just thought to come in what he was currently in. He had thought it was going to be some kind of weird duel against Neji, but he was glad that he was wrong. The Hyuugas' were hosting a party in honor of Naruto's return. He was in shock and awe that they would actually be nice to him.
When he had reached the entrance of the compound, he was escorted by two branch members. When he got in he could see all his friends Sakura, Kiba, Lee, Ten-Ten, and even Neji was cheering for his return. His eyes sparkled as he looked at them. He then looked over to the food table he saw a small stall that had Ichiraku written on it and he bolted towards it. The old man from the original stall was there. The old man told him that he was glad to have him back, ever since Naruto left he was low on budget. After they had finished their conversation, he looked over and saw that someone else was in the other seat. That person had been Hinata, and she looked as beautiful as a goddess. She had on a beautiful blue dress that was shoulder-less, and came down to her knees. It had gave her pearl white eyes a brilliant sheen. Those weren't the only things that looked good; The dress shown that Hinata had a very voluptuous body that anyone would be jealous of. Naruto had just stared at her, he was in wonderment of how amazing she looked tonight.
Naruto was finally able to muster up his words," Wow, Hinata you look amazing tonight."
Hinata was so happy that she almost fainted,"Thank you Naruto I'm glad to see that you are back. It wasn't fun around here since you were gone."
Naruto gave her a gentle smile and asked," So why did you decide to wear that dress today?"
"Well…well I wanted your first impression of the new me to be good, and I thought I'd show you more of this side of me", said Hinata blushing. She had barely stuttered at all.
"Well you look beautiful and I was surprised that you looked so beautiful under that jacket,"Naruto said trying not to make that sound offensive.
"Ummm…. If you have a moment could I ask you something?", Hinata said while twiddling her fingers.
"Sure anything since you decided to go all out tonight just for me," Naruto yelled as he started to dig in to his ramen.
The two of them had entered Hinata's room, and they both sat down on her bed. Naruto looked around and it was an ordinary room with white walls, some plants, a few pictures of her team, and stuffed animals.
"Wow Hinata if I didn't know you id think you were normal," Naruto said while smiling. Hinata on the other hand gave him a small smile, but had a hint of sadness.
"I didn't mean it that way, but your always so quiet, and I thought that was kind of weird," Naruto tried to sound as apologetic as he could. She then gave him a full on frown, and was about to leave the room with a few tears in here eyes. Until Naruto said this though,"But those are the things I like most about you Hinata." After he said that she gave him a blush of the century. "So that's why I want to ask…… will you go out with me." She couldn't say a word; she just gave him a large smile and then fainted.
Naruto was very worried because he had not been accustomed to her fainting. Unfortunately for him most of the Hyuuga clan had used their Byukugan to see what was going on between Naruto and their heiress. Hiashi saw what had happened, and saw a chance to execute Naruto. Hiashi had rushed into the room fuming. He was about to strike Naruto, but Neji had ran in there and blocked his attack.
"What is the meaning of this boy!" said Hiashi somewhat outraged," You, I, and most of the clan had seen her make Hinata faint, and i refuse to let him live for what he has done to her."
"Lord Hiashi please don't do this; You and i both know how she gets when she is with Naruto", said Neji giving him a glare with a hint of sorrow," Do not shame us by using this pathetic chance just so you can kill your so called monster."
Hiashi had rushed out of the door with steam bursting out of his ears. Naruto soon took a breather and picked up Hianta to put her back in bed properly. From all of the outbursts that had just happened many others came in to her room. To all of their surprise, Naruto was in bed with Hinata. They all were in shock and awe that she actually had the courage to try and sleep with him before they even dated.
Naruto who knew what they all thought yelled,"wait a sec this isn't what you think me and her was just talking."
"I bet you were", said Ino with a sly look on her face.
"No, No it's not like that I was just asking her out", Naruto said without realizing what a mistake he made. He then started to blush.
"Finally they got together, but I didn't know you liked her Naruto", said the curious Sakura.
Everyone also wanted to know why the change of heart so they all sat to hear his explanation.
He said that when him and ero-sennin were out training, he was told that he should hurry and find a girl. Jiraiya also said that right now is a good time to date. Naruto had thought about it, and wanted to get Sakura. He knew though that she would never have gone for a guy like him, so he gave up. Jiraiya then interjected that the Hyuuga girl liked him. Although he did not tell them the Kyuubi had also agreed. Another thing that Jiraiya said was that she looked good under her jacket too. Naruto didn't want to know in detail so he let it drop.
"Well that's how it happened", said Naruto giving them a goofy smile. At that moment Hinata had woken up to all her friends sitting in her room. Then a loud outburst filled the room. "Yeah you go girl", said many of them. Hinata then blushed a tomato red. Naruto then turned around and gave her a hug; she gave him a very grateful smile. If this is a dream than I don't ever want to be awake again she thought to herself. They then went back to the party and had a blast.
