"N-n-n-naruto kun is that you!???"
Hinata had fallen asleep hard last night after drowning her sorrows in sake and tequila shots after finding out that she had missed her chance. Sakura was engaged to Naruto. She was so devastated when she found out that suicide thoughts passed through her brain. She was still a little hung over.
'Maybe this is a hallucination? That's it my mind is conjuring up his image to console me.'
"Hinata? You okay? I heard you got drunk last night I was coming to make sure you had made it home." Naruto said waving his hand in her face.
Hinata finally got around to look around at her surroundings and noticed that she had fallen asleep in her bra and boy shorts.
"EEEPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She yanked up the sheet to her chin as a blush grew across her cheeks.
'Why am I embarrassed? It's a hallucination. Isn't it? Oh! A hallucination wouldn't have chakra!'
She activated her byakugan, the muscles and veins in her eyes tensing. While in that state a thought passed through Naruto's mind.
'She looks cute like that all embarrassed and stuff. No!!! I'm engaged!!!'
A blush started to creep on to Naruto's face so he swiftly turned around and faced the other way.
She saw chakra. It wasn't a hallucination. He saw her half naked. Oh my…
Hinata's blush deepened to a dark crimson. It was still dark in Hinata's room at the Hyuuga compound. The sun had not risen and it was about 4 am, he couldn't see the blush that much.
"N-n-n-naruto kun? Is that you?' she said half expecting him to turn into Kiba and yell Gotcha!
"Yeah its me who else would it be? Kiba?"
"Ha ha ha…no just checking" she said shakily.
"So your okay?"
"Yeah. A little umm sick but that's………normal………"
"Oh ok"
" Y-Y-You can go if you want"
" Are you trying to kick me out?"
"N-N-N-N-o!"
" Well it is sorta early I should go…" Naruto said looking out her window.
" O-O-O-kay naruto-san"
'San? Since when has Hinata called me san?' was the only thought that went through Naruto's mind.
" Well…bye…"
"Bye Naruto-san" Hinata said a little bit of courage in her voice. Why should she be nervous its not like she has a chance any more. They could be friends if she really tried.
"Naruto? Would you like to go get ramen with me?"
"Sure! Ramen! When?"
"M-M-Maybe lunch today? Can you come?"
"My mission isn't till tomorrow so I can come!"
"So 1 pm want to meet?"
"Sure we'll meet at Ichiraku's"'
"Okay"
"Bye!"
"Bye Naruto-san"
He poofed out of sight and Hinata slowly crept into a fitful sleep.
Naruto's POV 11 am.
He was still wandering around after training ended at 9 am. He had never gotten back to sleep after going to see Hinata. He was still mulling over the fact that she had started calling him –san. She had never done that since the first day she had met him.
Flash backNaruto was standing in front of Hinata his signature grin pasted on his face.
"Hi, I'm Naruto Uzumaki!" he said in his bright orange jump suit.
"H-h-h-hello Naruto-san, I'm Hinata, Hinata Hyuuga."
"What's up with –san? Nobody's ever called me that!"
" Sorry N-N-N-Naruto-k-k-k-kun"
"It's okay! Wanna go get ramen?"
"O-o-o-okay!"
