Naruto was his name, the one Hinata had fallen for. She always admired him from far away, but slowly admiration turned into something deeper. Hinata was practicing with her father on a hot evening when he got called on by the Fifth Hokage. Thus, leaving Hinata alone, and unsupervised. By now she was old enough to be alone ,after all she was already 17.
When Hinata's father had returned he announced he will be leaving the next day in order to attend a meeting between two villages. He also stated that while he's away Lady Tsunade will provide protection for Hinata, a Yellow Haired Ninja was going to supervise the small clan in exchange for Hinata's father.
A few moments after the departure of Hinata's dad Hinata headed to her room. She then laid down on her bed. Her room was normal. It was normal sized, painted with light purple, had a small wooden bed, and a medium-sized desk that was used for storage. There was only one window in the small bedroom and besides it was a door that allowed the entrance to a small bathroom. Hinata adored her room, it went with her style, not too flashy but just enough to keep her happy. On her desk was a picture of the one she loved, Naruto. The picture was taken when all nine genin had a get-together to celebrate their promoting.
Time was passing by slowly each second seemed to last an eternity until knocks were heard at the door. Hinata clumsily got up and yelled, "Coming!". She opened the door and as she did she got a good look of the Ninja.
"Hey Hinata!" he greeted her with that smile that shined brighter than the sun. "Old Granny Tsunade said I had to come and babysit, so here I am."
"Yes, Hello N-Naruto-kun...I was told you were coming...to…" Hinata mumbled.
"Hahh!? What? Hinata you have to speak up, honestly I can't hear a word you're saying" Naruto declared with one hand on his ear.
"Ahh , Im sorry. Please make yourself at home" Hinata said while opening the door and gesturing Naruto to come in.
"Great, Thanks." he said while walking in and replacing his shoes with sandals."So, you live here alone?"
" Yes, my Father sleeps over most of the time though, he's very protective of me" Hinata softly replied.
"Hmm, well I suppose that's a good thing...for a parent to take care of his child…" Naruto said leaving an awkward silence between them. Grrr… "Ahh, would you by chance have anything to eat, I had to skip breakfast this morning since Granny called me down last minute" He said while tugging at his stomach.
"Hehe" Hinata giggled. " I think we have Ramen cups in one of the cabinets, let me check" She said recollecting her memory.
"Really?!" Naruto said with sparkles in his eyes." Ahh, Thank You very much Hinata, seriously you saved me."
Hinata smiled and left to the kitchen. "Ahh, I can't reach, just a bit more…" She thought while stretching out her hand for the last Ramen cup.
"Hey, Hinata where's your…"
"Ahh!" Hinata had accidentally knocked over glass cups.
"Tsk, are you okay Hinata?" Naruto asked with a worried voice.
He had arrived just in time to save both Hinata and the glass cup from shattering. Hinata was safely placed below him with one hand around her small waist. As Naruto put down the glass cups with his free hand he noticed the frozen Hinata wasn't moving.
"Hey, Hinata are you okay?" he asked again. He reached for her chin and gently lifted up her face, to his surprise there stood a tomato-red blushing Hinata. She opened her mouth to respond but the words wouldn't come out, instead she just stood there gazing at the pure blue eyes.
"I-I have to go" she quickly escaped Naruto's grasp and left the kitchen. "Th-hats the last Ramen cup...you can have it if you like…" Hinata said with her head poking out besides the wall.
"Thanks Hinata" Naruto said shooting another heart warming smile.
