Continuation to the moon can't stop us and a snake bite won't hurt.
Chapter 1
Naruto and Hinata have been together for about a week now.
They really haven't been talking much since the mission.
As soon as Hinata got home, she got her eyes checked. They have been bothering her a lot lately.
She rubbed her eyes before she sat down to be examined. There were some Hyuugas that specialize in healing Byakugan.
Overusing Byakugan happens to almost every Hyuuga.
Hinata was drifting off while the doctor was poking and shining lights in her eyes.
When the doctor finally spoke, he said, "It looks like you have overused the Byakugan to the point where it'll take several weeks of eye rest me to tell if you will be able to use your Byakugan again. Come back in about in about four weeks to a month for another examination." The doctor pushed his glasses up.
Hinata was shocked.
Four weeks to a month?
Her first thought was I won't be able to see Naruto's cute face for a month?
She sighed and nodded.
She lifted her hair as the doctor wrapped her eyes in a bandage.
"Thank you," She said bowing.
Hinata had no trouble navigating her way back to her room.
She knew the Hyuuga compound inside out.
She could also sense other people's chakra so she doesn't bump into them.
She stayed in her room for a few days, only going out to eat or use the bathroom.
She had nothing to do but daydream about Naruto. She couldn't believe that he actually confessed to her.
He thought I was gonna reject him.
Her face flat against her pillow, on her stomach, legs up wandering back and forth. She was smiling and blushing at the thought.
I want to hear him calling me Hina again. She couldn't wait to see him again. She was literally spending all her time doing that. Was this how she was going to spend the rest of the month?
"I'm so bored. I can't even read a book or go outside!" She said out loud.
She heard a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
She heard a creek and thump as someone walked into her room.
"It's your turn to do groceries!" Hanabi's voice rang.
"But you know I'm a nice little sister."
Hinata knew she was smiling.
"But you'll owe me"
"It's ok I can do it myself" Hinata muttered.
"Ya right! You can't even read the list!"
"How many things on the list?"
"Four"
"That's not much at all"
"What are they"
"Bread, eggs, apples and"
Hanabi smiled.
"Watermelon"
Hinata could hear the smile in her voice.
"I can do that! The stores are close by anyway"
"Suit yourself" Hanabi handed Hinata money.
Hinata walked out of her room.
"Are you going out in your pajamas?!" Hanabi called after her.
Hinata whirled back around on her heels before she walked back in.
Hanabi watched her sister struggle to put on a baggy purple sweatshirt. It had the Hyuuga clan logo on the back, except it was in the front for Hinata.
Hanabi wanted to tell her that she was wearing the sweatshirt backward, but wanted to have some fun.
Hinata slipped on tights and walked out the door, her shoulder bumping into the wall. She tied her hair up into a sloppy bun. Hanabi was jealous, everything looked good on her sister, even when she is putting on her clothes blind.
Hinata slipped on two different shoes and walked out the door of the Hyuuga compound. Bread, eggs, apples, and watermelon.
How was she going to carry that back home?
She stopped at the first store and bought eggs and bread.
No trouble.
Next was the fruit stand where she needed was going to get the watermelon and apples.
She heard a feminine voice yell close to her,
"Oh, you poor thing! Let me help you with those."
Hinata felt someone pulling her bag gently.
"A-arigato" she could use the help.
"Where are you going next?" The nice lady asked.
"Ano. To the fruit store"
Hinata answered shyly.
"Follow me!"
Hinata followed.
After walking a little, Hinata realized something:
This definitely wasn't the way to the fruit store.
"Ano I-"
Another higher voice spoke.
"Shut up Hyuuga, and listen to me carefully"
Her voice was angry.
"Naruto-Senpai is mine so just back off"
Naruto-Senpai?
Hinata was confused.
"I-i dunno What you are talking about"
Hinata muttered, head down.
"We'll make sure you are so ugly, Naruto-Senpai can't even look at you anymore"
"Here are the scissors, do it"
Scissors?
"No! Wait! What are you doing?!"
Hinata yelled. She felt a hand on her back pushing her into a wall.
They weren't in public anymore.
She heard a snip and felt hair brushing again her feet.
Are they cutting my hair?
Hinata pushed back and whirled around.
She tried grabbing the scissors out of the girl's hand.
Bad idea.
She felt a sharp pain in her palm.
"What did you do?!" The other girl shrieked.
"It was an accident! She was trying to get the scissors!"
Hinata felt warm sticky blood on her hands.
She stepped towards their voices and felt a crunch under her foot.
Something was oozing out.
Oh god, those were the eggs.
They tried to cut my hair when it was in a bun?
It must be so uneven.
"Please stop it!" Hinata yelled.
One of the girls pushed her again onto the floor.
Face flat.
Hinata's hand touched the grimy floor trying to sit up.
"Omg! It's Naruto-Senpai!"
One of them whispered as they ran away.
"What's going on?!" A familiar voice asked worriedly.
There were scissors on the floor, dark purple hair littered everywhere, crushed eggs, and Hinata on the floor blind and hand covered in blood.
"Hina! What happened? Who did this to you?"
Naruto got on his knees next to her.
Her face turned red.
"I-I just wanted to do some groceries. And some girls p-pretended to help me and t-they tried to cut my hair" Hinata was so nervous.
"Why would they do that?"
She didn't really want to tell him.
"T-they said to b-back off N-Naruto-Senpai."
Naruto put a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm so sorry. Sakura-Chan told me I had like fangirls or something. This is all my fault." His voice was overflowing with guilt.
Hinata shook her head.
"No. I'm sorry for getting in the way of where you were going right now. I'll just go home now"
Naruto looked at her in disbelief and shock.
How angelic can she get?
I don't deserve her.
"I was actually on my way to your house.
I haven't seen you in like a week" Naruto answered, scratching the back of his head.
"R-really?" Hinata couldn't help but smile at that fact.
He really likes me.
She is so cute.
They both stood up.
"I don't get it" Hinata muttered.
"What"
"W-why would you like someone like me?
I-I'm just so hopeless and-" her voice cracked and she put both hands on her face.
"And I'm a disgrace to my clan and I just, like, tried my best but I-I don't know why I'm even here!"
It really broke Naruto's heart that she was in the same hopeless pain he was in a long time ago.
What should he do?
He wrapped both arms around her, pulled her closer, and kissed her forehead through her bangs.
"You're not hopeless. Really, I should be asking why you like me. Your so perfect and I'm a loser compared to you"
Somehow Hinata felt so happy. Nothing would bring her down as long as she was with him.
"You're not a loser" Hinata whispered.
She returned the hug.
"Ok. Let's get that hand of yours fixed Hina" Naruto said holding Hinata's.
"I-I like it when you call me Hina."
Naruto blushed.
Naruto held Hinata's good hand and they walked.
"So Hina, why are you blindfolded?"
Naruto asked stupidly.
"Ano, because I Toneri messed up my Byakugan a little"
"So are you gonna be Okay?"
"Ya"
Silence.
"How long are you going to wear that?"
"Four weeks to a month"
"Nani?"
"I'll be fine Naruto-Kun!" She smiled.
"No… It's that I won't be able to see your beautiful eyes for that long?"
She blushed. Beautiful eyes?
"W-what about me? I can't look at your cute face for that long either"
Saying that took a lot of Hinata's willpower.
Naruto smiled, turned away, and blushed.
She thinks my face is cute.
"Where are we going Naruto-Kun?"
"My apartment"
2b continued.
