Emergence…
Chapter One
Months have passed since the Kiba-Sasuke incident, and things have been going great in Konoha; however, Sasuke has left the village for reasons unknown. Because he is gone, I can live a rather peaceful life with my "special someone". Under the shade of the tree, I watch Kiba run around in the field, playing with Akamaru. I release a tiny smile as I think of the happy moments that we have shared. I guess…now you could call us a couple. Just saying it in my head, I can feel the blood rush to my face. On this sunny day, I am relieved that our worries are far and we can just think about each other.
"Ah—Hinata, you look worried?!" said Kiba as he walked over to where I am sitting. "Ah—Kiba…it's been months and yet you still can't read the emotions on my face." I said. "I can too!" he argued and playfully tackled me down. We rolled on the grass a little bit, and then he stopped when he was under me. He looked at my face and then sighed, "I wouldn't mind spending our whole lives this way." he said to me. "W-Who wouldn't?" I asked. I slowly became nervous, and I felt a warm rush on my face. He rolled onto his belly and started laughing. "Ha-ha…you're still stuttering." he said while laughing. "Hmph." I said. I then softly jumped on his body. "Oof…ah—I don't mind." he said lazily, "You're not that heavy anyways." "Should I take that as a compliment or as an insult?" I asked. "Hm—it depends if you're aiming to be thin or if you don't care about your weight." he explained. "I see…being thin would be nice." I said. "Oh really?" he asked, "I think you're fine just the way you are." I suddenly blushed and tried to hide my face. "Oh—did I make someone embarrassed?" he asked. "Um...shhh!" I mumbled while covering my face with my sleeve. He put his arm over my shoulder, "Ah—don't worry, it's okay to be embarrassed." he said. Under his right arm, we fell asleep together, bathing in the sun's warmth; Akamaru curled up to his left leg and we slept together.
I can see the glow of the sunlight through my eye-lids. I slowly opened my eyes and found Kiba still snoozing away. I checked his watch—it was about 3 pm. I'd love to stay like this forever, but we can't. I slowly stood up, and then I lightly shook Kiba. "Kiba—we've been snoozing here for awhile, we should go home now." I said. He rustled a little then got up and wiped some drool off his cheek. "It's been awhile, it's time to go home now." I said. "Oh—awww, why do we have to split apart so early?" he asked. "We have to because the Chunin Exams start 2 days from now and we want to get a lot of sleep—right?" I asked him. "Um—yeah sure." he replied. We both got up and started walking back to Konoha. "Gr…screw the Chunin Exams—I'd rather spend all my time with you." he said. "Get a grip lover boy." I said playfully, "We still need to pay attention to other things in this world." "I guess so." he said. He grabbed my hand and then we started walking to my house.
We passed the economical part of the city and hit the residential area. We walked passed silent houses while chatting away. "Do you think it'd affect our teamwork?" I asked. "Huh?" he retorted. "Do you think us being together would affect how we perform in the Chunin Exams?" I asked. "Nah—I think we'd do better." he said. Then he gave me one of his stupidly cute smiles…I had no choice but to agree. Even though, I still had a feeling it'd affect our team in a way. Pondering about my hypothesis, there was a few seconds of silence. "Ah—don't worry about it Hinata." said Kiba. He then put his arms around my waste and rubbed his nose against the back of my neck. I suddenly became tense and nervous. "I won't let anything happen to you." he whispered into my ear. A smile came over my face. "Thanks." I said. But in the end, I don't want to be protected…I want to be able to fend for myself, and protect him—I am determined to. After awhile we have reached my house, I then gave him a hug and waved to him good-bye. I then went into the house and had dinner with the family. As I was walking upstairs to my bedroom I met Neji. "What'd you do today?" he asked. "Oh—nothing." I replied. We've never been particularly close; I don't know what he wants. "Is that so?" he asked. "Yes…it is." I said. Then I walked passed him and into my bedroom. What is his problem, questioning me like that. It's not like he's my father, he doesn't need to know every detail of my life. "Ah—I'm just over-reacting." I told myself. I changed into my sleeping clothes then hid away into my bed. Today was a happy day, and I hope I dream about a future similar to what I have now.
A/N:
Ah…it's been awhile since I have written something that wasn't for school. My writing style may have changed a bit; I hope you people still enjoy reading my fan-fics. I don't think the sequel is 100 accurate to A New Hinata but I hope you people still like it. So—review and tell me suggestions about my writing or about what you want to happen because I'm considering adding things here and there. Thanks for reading. Have a good summer!
