Because you're beautiful
This is a one-shot (?) of Nagato/Hinata. This crack couple needs more stories. Completely AU, Please R&R.
Nagato looked at her sleeping form. His heart skips a beat. He could believe it that a woman like her be in love with a man like him. He remembers when they first met all those months ago. It was when he was still the leader of the Akatsuki, which he becomes ashamed of. It took all his strength to not look at her.
It was through his Deva Path that he first saw her. After awhile he wanted to see her again. Despite knowing that she was a Konoha kunoichi, he couldn't resist. Using the Deva Path, he learns a lot from her through their fights. After awhile he decided to betray Madara and sided with Konoha.
Flashback
"Konan," Nagato looked at his partner. "What's wrong?"
"What's with the girl?" she asked. "Is she the reason we betrayed Madara?"
"Yes and no. She did help but it was mostly Naruto that helped me realize that I was being used," He told her truthfully. "I want to help them to defeat Madara."
END FLASHBACK
It was after the final battle that Naruto almost died if it wasn't Sasuke who gravely injured Madara. The fetal injury helped Naruto kill Madara. It was at this moment that Sasuke escaped and went into hiding. Nagato thought on it. He promised not to kill him when they meet.
After he betrayed Madara, he decided to let go most of his Paths, only leaving the Deva up and running. Only to stop when a medical-nin, who was deeply loyal to him, had revived Yahiko but lost her life in the process. When that happened, he no longer need the rods and lost them. He began to gain back his weight slowly.
Hinata stirred a bit. She was having that dream again. Where Naruto confuse his love to Sakura and left her behind. It pains him to see her like that. Crying her eyes out when he came to visit. He opened up to her they begin to talk.
Flashback
"Is something wrong?" he asked the young Hyūga heiress.
She looks at him with those pearl-eyes that he has fallen in love with. He gave her a gentle smile. Sitting down next to her at the park bench he looked up.
"I-i-it's nothing," she shuttered. She is full aware of who he was.
"It must be since your crying," Nagato told her. "Please tell me."
"W-why d-d-do you c-care?"
He gave her the only answer that he had, "it pains me to see you like this. Someone as beautiful as you shouldn't cry."
"You t-think I'm beautiful?" she asked.
"Yes," he gave her a small nod. "I think you're very beautiful."
She gave a deep blush and begins to fidget with her forefingers.
"N-no one h-has told me t-t-that before," she told him.
"Well now someone has," he turns to her.
"Arigotou," she places her hands on her lap.
"May I ask you a favor?"
"S-sure," she turns to him.
"I'm lost and I need to get to the Hokage's office. Could you show me where I need to go?"
"H-hai but d-don't you have an e-escort?"
"They didn't give me one," Nagato responded. He did have an escort but he had to leave for a mission that morning. "I wouldn't mind having someone as beautiful as you to be my escort."
END FLASHBACK
After returning from Konoha from a peace treaty, he couldn't stop but to think about the Hyūga heiress. A month after the peace treaty, he begins to write to her which he was pleased that she wrote him back. A few more letters and they begin a long distances relationship. A letter or two made it where he finally convinced the Hokage and the biggest hurdle, Hyūga Hiashi, to make Hinata the Konoha Ambassador in Amegakure.
It didn't take more then a month for them to become lovers. He almost didn't remember how but he does know that sexual tensions became so high that they slept together in her room. It took a lot out of them before then not to make love.
He touched her cheek and then kisses it. Nagato was lucky to have her. After Konan and Yahiko got together, he has been alone. True they're there for him but as the Amekage, he never felt so alone. Nagato lay down again, holding Hinata. The front of her body was touching his.
Remembering that Yahiko being offered of being the Amekage and how he declined the position, which prompted Nagato to take the position. He didn't like being the Amekage but he had no choice in the matter.
"Nagato-koi?" Hinata slowly wakes up.
"Hai."
"Will you be here?"
"Hinata-koi," he touched her cheek again. "I'll never leave you."
"Why?"
"Because you're beautiful."
