Oi Mina! Konnichiwa! So…here I am with another new Fanfic. I came up with this idea one day when I was in class. I thought it would be cool to write a musicalish Fanfic with Hinata trying to tell Naruto that she loves him. There is a special guest appearance some where in the middle of the story. This is going to be a two part one shot…so I'll put up the next chapter shortly. I just wanna see if you guys actually like this. That kawai little button below will be waiting for you to push it, so you can leave a review. NO FLAMES PLEASE. Honestly…if you really don't like it, do me a huge favor and don't leave a nasty review. I really hate it. Well…with that said, let me know what you think. K?
Warnings: There may be some OOCness and out right craziness. That is all.
SP3234: DISCLAMER TIME!
Hinata: Though she really loves the song…"I'm Coming Out" does not belong to SP3234…all rights goes to Diana Ross.
Naruto: Also SP3234 does not own me
Itachi: Damn right! She owns me!
Hinata and Naruto with twitching eyes: Dangerous!
SP3234: Hey…can't a girl dream?
Sakura (hidden somewhere in the background talking in a low and fast tone): For legal purposes it is safe to say that SP3234 does not own any of the charters in Naruto…only the ones that she makes up…that is all…signing out.
Prelude: Out With The Old In With The New
A frown came across Hinata's face. Yet again her nervousness became overwhelming and her shyness turned her away from telling Naruto how she felt. She remembered it clearly. Earlier that day both she and Naruto were hanging out at the park. It was very peaceful…just the two of them sitting on the bench by the lake. It was the perfect opportunity since their conversation turn to that of romance. Heck she couldn't have dreamed of a perfect moment!
Now she sat on the edge of her bed kicking herself mentally. Years had passed and she was now 17. Over the years she grew stronger and in other aspects of her life, she became a little more open. Well…honestly on a scale of 1-10…one being as outgoing as Naruto…and 10 being her at the age of 13…right now she would consider herself a…8…and on some days…even a 9. Gosh she sucked! All she ever did was stick to her "comfort zone" which she increasingly hated with all her guts.
She sighed inwardly as she stood up and head to the door leading to her balcony. As she stepped outside, she saw the garden of her compound. She felt that she had the best view out of everyone in her house. Not only was she able to see the garden with all sorts of different trees and flowers. She also had an amazing view of the mountains that rested just on the out skirts of the village (Not the one with Hokages). Currently the sun was setting in the distance creating a palate of beautiful colors in the mid-summer's sky. As the sun fell behind the mountains, thus indicating that the day was now over, Hinata made a firm resolution within her heart. Tomorrow is a new day…and it will be the start to a brand new life.
Confessions of a Teenage Kunoichi
The next morning Hinata woke up and blanked a couple of times rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as she let out a soft yawn. A deep sigh escaped her lips as small smile appeared on her face. "Today is the day…nothings going to stop me."
Suddenly music could be heard coming from the back ground. Hinata's smile grew wider as she stepped out of her bed.
Hinata:
I'm coming out
I'm coming
I'm coming out
I'm coming out
I'm coming out
I'm coming out
She stood in front of her closet and looked through the clothes hanging there before her. She wanted to pick out a "Wow" outfit. Something that the "Old" her would NEVER wear. Digging deeper and deeper into her closet, she noticed a short black halter dress that she had personally brought a few months ago. She went to the mall with her friends…Sakura, Tenten and Ino…and they dared her to try it on. When they saw how amazing the dress looked on her, they urged her to buy the dress. At first she felt self-conscious about it. However she was happy that she decided to buy it…
Hinata:
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show
15 minutes passed and she stood in front of her full length mirror. She was quite content with what she saw. The dress fell a few inches above her knees showing off her shapely legs. Looking up, she saw how it hugged at the curves she had acquired over the years. The dress had a low V neck line which showed a little bit of her cleavage. Her arms, shoulders and back were well toned and she really liked how the back was very low…ending at her waist. Her waist length hair was done in loose curls. Her makeup was so minimal that it looked as if she woke up every morning with a perfect face. With a final glance at herself, Hinata smiled confidently as she walked out of her bed room.
Hinata:
There's a new me coming out
And I just had to live
And I wanna give
I'm completely positive
As she walked into the kitchen, all conversations in the room halted as everyone turned their attention to the heiress standing at the door.
"Hin…Hin…Hinata-sama…" Neji, Hinata's older cousin gasped in shock.
"Whoa! Where did you get that dress?" Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister asked as she looked with wide eyes at her older sister.
Hinata's father kept silent as he continued to eat his breakfast. However the look on his face showed less then 1 of shock and 99.99 of indifference.
"Where do you think you are going dressed like that?" Neji demanded as he stood up from his seat. He turned to his uncle who continued to eat his breakfast in peace, not paying any mind to Neji's improper out burst. "Uncle, are you going to let her walk out dressed like that!" He asked in the calmest voice he could muster.
Without looking up at Neji, Hinata's father continued. "Hinata is 17 years old. She is old enough to choose what she will wear. It doesn't concern me what she wears….so long that she as something on." He said in a low voice. He then for the second time that day turned to look at his daughter. "You look very beautiful Hinata." He said without a smile, but the tone of his voice only soften a fraction.
Hinata gave her father a look of complete surprise. She was never his favorite and she knew it. They hardly ever spoke to each other. Heck, she would very well believe…if she didn't have proof…that she was NOT his child since he never really seemed to care. However, it was those very rare moments…like this one…where any doubts escape her thoughts. She swallowed hard before she could give a reply to his comment. "Thank you father" She said in a soft voice. She then turned to Neji who continued to look at her with shock. "Neji-onii-chan" She began. "To answer your previous question, I am on my way to see Naruto-kun." She said simply.
At the mention of Naruto's name, Neji's expression quickly changed to that of annoyance. Hinata shook her head as she had it tilted slightly. She really couldn't understand. It's not that Neji hated Naruto…in fact through the years, they have actually gotten along….not that she would say that they were best friends. They just had some what of an understanding and tolerance of each other. "Why are you going to see him?" Neji asked with a hint of discuss in his voice. Ok…there was one other thing that should be mentioned. Neji believed that Hinata deserved better….in fact…he felt that Naruto was not good enough for her. Hinata rolled her eyes some what annoyed that Neji was acting over protective.
"Listen…Dad…" She began sarcastically…which really surprised everyone in the room. Even her father's surprised look bump up from less then 1 to 12. IT WAS NOT LIKE HER TO BE SARCASTIC! Neji kept his mouth shut as Hinata continued. "I'm going to see Naruto-kun so that I could tell him that I love him." She said with a steady sigh. Really…she didn't want to stick around for long. She had to find Naruto-kun…it's not like she was COMPLETELY confident…she still felt self-conscious of leaving the house dressed as she was.
For a while, everyone in the room were completely silent…so silent that you could hear a pin drop…literally…Hinata heard a pin drop some where in the room….not only did have an amazing eye sight, but she also had really good hearing. Suddenly the silence was shattered as laughter erupting in the room.
Well…Neji and Hanabi there laugher was uncontrollable….Hinata's father were more or less smiling….if you could call that a smile….it looked more like he had indigestion or something…
"Why are you all laughing at me?" She asked with annoyance as she placed a hand on her hips and tapped her foot.
"Hinata-sama…" Neji said as his laughter died down. "Do you know how many times you have tried to tell that guy that you like him and every time you chicken out! What makes you think that this time is any different?"
Her eyes narrowed slightly at the comment. "Because…" She began with determination in her voice. "This time is different. I woke up this morning with a new out look to my life. No more will I be the shy little girl who has low self-esteem. I want to shout out to the world that I've changed!"
Hanabi giggled as she shook her head. "I've got to see this….I'm coming with you."
"I agree." Neji said as he stood up.
"Whatever…" Hinata said with a sigh "Let's get going then." A small smirk as she walked out of the kitchen. The music in the background continued from where it left off. At first Neji and Hanabi looked around in confusion but soon grew accustom the music.
Hinata:
I think this time around
I am gonna do it
Like you never do it
Like you never knew it
Ooh, I'll make it through
With Naruto
For the second time, he hung up the phone. 'Hinata…where could you be?' He thought to himself as he picked up the phone once again and dialed the number to her house. 'There's something very important that I have to tell you…'
With Hinata
Hinata:
The time has come for me
To break out of the shell
I have to shout
That I'm coming out
"Hin…Hinata?" Hinata heard a voice call out to her. She turned her attention to see her three friends staring at her with widen eyes. Sakura was the one who had spoken. Her green eyes widen when she saw what her best friend was wearing. "I never would have imagined that you would wear that dress outside. I'm impressed. What's with the sudden change?" She asked as she stood in front of her friend with the other two girls right behind her.
"Yeah…you look amazing." Tenten said.
"I didn't know you actually brought that dress…" Ino said as a thoughtful look came across her face.
"She's going to see Naruto so that she could tell him that she loves him." Hanabi called out from behind Neji.
All three girls gave Hinata a look as they tried their best to hold back their amusement. "Hinata….what's with the sudden change?" Tenten asked.
"Why not? Why shouldn't I change? I've been labeled as the "Shy Little Girl" for far too long. I love Naruto-kun…and I really want to tell him how I feel." She said confidently.
"Awe…Hinata-chan…I'm sorry…actually this is the boldest thing you have ever done…I give you props for that. I'll go with you for encouragement." Sakura said with a warm smile.
"Me too." Tenten and Ino said in unison.
"Well then let's go…I really don't have time to waste." Hinata said as she walked pass her friends and continued on with everyone following behind her. Along the way, most of the genins and jounin were following her. Each one had their own reaction to Hinata's new look. Even Kiba was impressed. He still couldn't keep his eyes off the girl's…uh…right this is rated T for teen….he couldn't keep his eyes off her body.
Hinata and everyone else:
I'm coming out I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show
Else where in Konoha
As Naruto was walking down the streets He couldn't help but notice the faint sounds of music in the air. "Where is that coming from?" He asked himself out loud as he looked around. Oddly enough, the streets around him were quite empty…there was no one….and I mean NO ONE….around. He continued on his way to Hinata's house. "What is going on today? Is it a holiday or something? Why are the streets so deserted?"
Ignoring the sound of music in the distance and the questions now swimming in his head, Naruto continued on his way to Hinata's house.
In the out skirts of Konoha
"I wish I knew why the heck I'm back here…" Itachi muttered under his breath. One could say that he was there to capture the Kyuubi sealed within that Naruto Kid...but really…he had no clue. One minute he was in the middle of some war in the wind country and suddenly he appeared here in the out skirts of Konoha!
"Humm…that's simple." He could hear a voice call out from below. He looked down and noticed a girl around his age leaning against the tree. She was looking up at him with a smirk on her face. She was wearing a white mini skirt, a white Halter top that showed off most of her cleavage and white ninja shoes. The whole outfit showed off her curvy body. Her kunai holster was tied around her right leg and she had on arm and knee bends. Her skin was of an olive tone and she had long wavy black hair that fell a little above her waist. She also her leaf head band resting on her forehead.
"Who are you?" He asked with narrowed eyes.
Her smirk disappeared and a serious look came across her flawless face. She pushed herself from off the tree and stood up straight. "The name's Aki…I'm the author of this story…" She said simply.
"Story?" Itachi echoed not understanding what she was talking about.
"Yeah story…are you hard of hearing or something?" She snapped in a sarcastic tone.
Her intense light brown eyes locked with his dangerous onyx eyes. Itachi stared down at her from the tree tops with narrowed eyes. A smirk appeared on her face as she gave him a challenging look.
"What the…" He began as he leaped down and stood in front of her.
She shrugged her shoulders as she walked past him. She should have felt intimidated since he towered over her 5'0" petite form. Itachi turned around to look at the girl who appear to not be even the slightest bit afraid of him.Never had he encountered anyone who was this tough.
"Don't you know who you are talking to?" He asked in a dangerously low voice as he glared at her.
"Yeah…yeah…Itachi-kun…" She said as she waved her hand at him casually with out looking back. She then turn her head to look at him over her shoulder. A look of indifference was across her face. "Anyway deal with it. You're in the story and you're not leaving till I say so." She turned around and had her arms crossed under her chest as she gave him a cocky look.
He almost had to admit…if he weren't so bent onto being such a bad boy…he would openly admit that the girl not only had what it took to hang around him…but that she was also very beautiful. He was oddly drawn to her tough fearless attitude. He sighed inwardly now realizing that he was in a no win situation. What could he do? She was the author.
"So…what do you expect me to do?" He asked reluctantly as he rolled his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest.
In a drop of a dime her attitude suddenly changed, stars appeared in Aki's eyes and she had a chibi face. Itachi flinched back at her sudden happiness. He officially took back what he had thought about before. He didn't want to be any where near this girl!
"ITACHI-KUN!" She yelled as she flung her self at him.
"AGH! GET OFF ME WENTCH!" He yelled as he pushed her off from him. "ARE YOU CRAZY!"
A thoughtful look came across her face as she effortlessly blew away a stray hair from off her face before she spoke. "Humm…nope…just always wanted to do that." The cocky look once again fell across her face and she had a smirk.
"Just keep it cool Itachi-kun…you don't play a huge role in this story…but you sure will later on…" She laughed so evilly that it even made him twitch in fear. Before he could ask what she was talking about, she disappeared in a whirl of white rose petals.
"Stupid Wench!" He muttered under his breath.
"I heard that…" He could hear her voice echo in the wind.
With Hinata
By this time almost the whole village was walking a few feet behind Hinata. With every new person joining her, her confidence shot up. There is no turning back now…she was a few blocks away from Naruto's apartment.
"You can do it Hinata!" Someone shout from the middle of the crowed.
Her smile widen…heck yeah she could do it!
Hinata:
I've got to show the world
All that I wanna be
And all my billities
Ther's so much more to me
Somehow, I have to make them
Just understand
I got it well in hand
And, oh, how I've planned
"EVERYBODY STOP!" They suddenly heard a voice call out a few yards a head of them.
Suddenly the music came to a streaking halt and everyone stopped in their tracks. Walking up to them was Tsunade and she had a very ticked off look on her face.
"What is the meaning of this?" She demanded as she stood in front of Hinata with her hands on her hips. She looked down at the young jounin and shook her head disapprovingly. "Hinata…I never would have thought that you would be behind all of this noise. I could hear you guys all the way from across town in the Hokages Castle. Explain yourself."
Hinata bit her lower lip before she replied. "Hokage-sama…I am on my way to see Naruto-kun…I'm going to tell him that I love him." She turned around to look at the crowed behind her then she turned to look back at the Hokage. "These people followed me on their own. Most of them doubt that I have the courage to tell Naruto-kun how I feel and others only want to give me encouragement. I'm tired…of waiting for him to make the move…and of being to shy to say 4 simple words…" She sighed deeply. Really…she never intended for anyone to follow her…she would have done quite well singing to herself as she walked to Naruto's house.
"Well…" Tsunade said in a thoughtful tone as she looked down at the young kunoichi. "I guess I'm going to come along as well…I'd really like to see you be courageous and tell Naruto how you feel. Besides…I could take a break off from work."
With that said the music started again. Everything went back to normal (well…as normal as it was when they were singing) and the crowd behind her cheered as she continued to walk.
Hinata:
I'm spreadin' love
There's no need to fear
And I just feel so glad
Every time I hear:
Most of the Genins and Jounin:
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show
15 minutes later, about 40 people, including Hinata stood in front of Naruto's door. The rest of the crowd was down stairs since not everyone in the village could fit in the narrow hall way. Hinata's heart was beating very fast. This was it…she worked hard in putting up the courage to come here today…so…
Everyone broke into a musical dance number. Down stairs people were spinning around and doing no handed cartwheels. Upstairs everyone was in the middle of a tap/jazz dance number. From the middle of the crowd, Hinata could be seen as two strong men carried her on their shoulders to Naruto's door and they gently placed her down.
Everyone:
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show
They continued their dance and as soon as the music ended fireworks exploded in the air and confetti was falling down from no where in particular. Those on the top floor stood in their ending pose with their arms and hands spread out while they were leaning towards Hinata, who had her back towards them. They watched intensely as she raised her hand to knock on the door. As if in slow motion, her fist slowly made its way to the door. She breathed out and held her breath. She knocked.
No response…in fact…it was oddly silent.
She tried again.
Still…no response. Just then something caught her eye. A small piece of paper was taped to the door. Out of curiosity, she took the paper into her hands and read it. At reading it, a gasp of surprise escaped her lips.
"What is it Hinata? What does the letter say?" Ino asked at hearing her friend gasp.
Hinata turned to the direction of the voice. She had such a sad look on her face. A moment passed before she spoke. "The letter…it mentioned that…the apartment building…is going to be torn down. All tenants are to move else were…." Her voice trialed off.
"Well…that's not so bad…maybe he stepped out…it's probably a week's notice or something." Sakura said as she walked over to her friend. She took the letter from her friend who was still frozen in her spot. She noticed that silent tears were rolling down her cheeks. Out of curiosity she decided to read the letter. At reading it her own eyes wide in shock.
"What is it Sakura?" Tenten asked.
"This notice is a week old. The deadline for the tenants to move out was…early this morning…meaning that…he's gone." She said as she looked up at everyone with a sad look.
