Warnings: Takes place when (if) Sasuke returns to Konoha. Post-war.

"Hinata-chan!"
The purple-haired Hyuuga swerved around to see a bright-eyed boy catch up to her. Her lavender eyes widened slightly when she realized it was Naruto who had called her name, and she turned a light hue of pink before greeting him.
"N-naruto-kun," she bowed slightly.
He put a large hand on her shoulder and chuckled. "You're still the same- even after the war. Are you taking a walk?"
"Yes."
"Do you mind if I tag along?"
Hinata blushed and shook her head silently, playing with the threads of ends of her oversized jacket. Her mauve locks fell slightly and framed her pale face as she lowered her head to hide her pink cheeks.
Naruto smiled. "Great!" He laid his hands behind his head and turned his head to the sky. "I was going to go out for a walk anyways, since it's a really nice day today," he looked at her and grinned. "Then I saw you. It's much nicer to go on a walk with someone you know. Dattebayo!"
Hinata gazed at the cerulean-eyed boy as he watched the crows in the sky and smiled. She still held a small flame for the 22-year old, even though she let go of her unrequited love long ago. After all, it isn't easy to relinquish her adoration for the eccentric character; as long as she could remember, she harbored feelings for him.
Hinata smiled and nodded, responding to the blonde's energetic attitude and words with her own expressions. She was surprised by how well her words flowed around him. The shy woman was very well acquainted with her stuttering problem, as well as her fainting problem when he came too close to her. She giggled silently, remembering her tomato-red face and the butterflies that fluttered wildly in her stomach.
"Ne, Hinata-chan?"
She turned her undivided attention to him and cocked her head. "What is it?"
"Do you remember when you were really sickly? You know, before the war?"
Hinata giggled. "I wasn't really sick, Naruto-kun. I-I just had a crush on you," she blushed, averting her eyes from his face.
His eyes widened. "Even before the Chuunin exam?"
She nodded her head slowly.
"So when you're in love, you get sick? How come I didn't get sick when I liked Sakura-chan?"
"No, no. I was just a special case."
Naruto scratched his head. "Ok… so how do you feel-"
"Hinata."
They turned to see a dark-haired man leap from a tree and walk calmly towards them.
"Hey! It's teme!"
"Dobe."
Hinata smiled slightly at the playful banter between the two and bobbed her head lightly. "Good morning, Sasuke-kun."
Sasuke grunted in response and roughly grabbed her hand. He glanced at Naruto and glared as he pulled her along. The blonde glared back and stuck his tongue out before continuing along the path.
"Sasuke-kun? Where are we going?" She was bewildered by his actions, and a light blush decorated her features.
He didn't answer until they stumbled upon a small grassy clearing. "I thought you were going to train with me this morning?"
Hinata furrowed her eyebrows and bit her lip lightly. "I don't remember."
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "You promised when we ate at Ichiraku's last week. Remember? We ran into Naruto."
"Oh! I thought we were supposed to do that tomorrow," Hinata replied.
"…"
"Did you forget?"
"I don't forget," Sasuke scoffed.
Hinata giggled. "Okay, okay. Did you wanna train then?"
"We lost the best part of the day to train. Let's just do it tomorrow."
"Then what do you want to do?"
He shrugged. "Let's take a walk."
Hinata's eyes widened. "Wh-what?"
He stared at her pointedly. "I interrupted your walk earlier, so I'll walk with you."
"Why didn't you walk with me and Naruto-kun?"
"Hn."
Hinata's pale-red lips curved upwards. "Why'd you pull me away?" She teased lightly.
"Hn."
"Did you get jea-"
"Don't say it," Sasuke warned, glaring lightly at the giggling girl in front of him.
"Jeal-"
"No."
"Fine. I won't say it."
Silence.
"Jealou-"
Sasuke snorted and put a rough hand over her mouth. "I told you not to say it."
Hinata blushed fiercely and murmured into his hand. "Mmm! Mmm!"
Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "Why are you blushing?"
Hinata pried the large hand off her mouth slowly and glared softly at the onyx-haired man. "Wh-what was that f-for?"
"I told you not to say it, so I covered your mouth," he answered, crossing his arms.
"B-but…"
"Let's go, Hinata,"
"B-but Sasuke-kun," she said, her words fading as she quickly followed the stubborn man out of the woods.
She didn't see the faint smirk that adorned his pale face, nor the way his eyes smiled in victory. And although he'd never admit it, he liked the calm girl much more than he should have.
His dark eyes strayed to her slightly panting form, and he set his pale hand on her head. Hinata turned her gaze towards Sasuke and smiled brilliantly. Whether he wanted to or not, a light hue of pink brushed his cheeks and he turned his head away.

Thanks for reading "Seven Sins!" This will be a collection of one-shots using the seven deadly sins to demonstrate their relationship (aww.). (:
I'm relatively new to this pair. I used to love Naruto/Hinata (and I still kind of do), but I find Sasuke and Hinata have so much… chemistry. And well, I love chemistry. XD
Anyhoo, I know this is a crack pairing, and has virtually no chance of happening. (And neither is Sasuke's coming home. DX) But still, I'd like to believe it is still possible.
Please review! I'd appreciate your thoughts and criticism!
