You may recognize this story from my Naruto Drabble series. What started out as a friend challenging me, turned into this. The challenge was to write while listening to a certain amount of songs on shuffle (adding one each chapter, until the cap's reached, then repeat), the catch being a new song will likely change the tone and direction of the story. I won somewhere around chapter 5, but the story wasn't finished yet. I've decided to finish it for you guys. Let's see where this ride goes!

Hinata is proud of herself for her bold, new purchase. Little does she know, it's about to set something unexpected into motion. Herself. NaruHina, Rated M

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. Believe me, if I did, this would be so canon.

Unexpected

予期しない


She felt daring. She felt bold. She felt smoldering and sexy, though most shockingly, she felt flirty.

Standing in front of her full-body mirror, Hinata twirled around in her very lascivious, very audacious, very new purchase.

On a whim, she had purchased what was easily the most... adult set of underwear she'd ever owned. She traced the black lace partly covering the bright orange silk of her brazier. Eyeing the image of matching underwear in the mirror, she twirled once more, the corner of her lips lifted ever so slightly.

In a wistful sense of fantasy, she wondered what Naruto would think if he could see her now. Surely, she would no longer be the shy, weird girl who hardly ever said a word in his eyes. Maybe. She turned to her side, admiring the curve of her hip. At the very least, he wouldn't think she was a girl.

She reached for the final piece of the set - an orange, silk robe - lying on her bed and paused at the clicking sound of her doorknob turning.

"Hey Hinata, Neji said I could come-"

It all sank in her gut, along with her heart, all too quickly. Though not quick enough to cover what she never wanted anyone to see. Aside from Naruto, of course. But that didn't mean she wanted him to see her like this now. Before she could even muster enough courage to cut off the price tags!

She screamed a quick, "Ah!" Hardly a scream at all. It was just loud enough to send a jolt of life through the frozen blonde in her doorway.

In a moment of surging adrenaline and embarrassment, she forgot how to use her arms. They were moving. They just weren't moving in the way she wanted them to. Cover me up, cover me up, use the robe, cover me up!

Standing there, thoroughly scandalized, and feeling very much bullied - though the poor guy had done nothing but execute flawlessly poor timing - she stared. Stared at blue orbs stare back. Though they were not staring at her eyes.

"H-Hinata...?" He breathed.

Her arms instinctively pulled into her chest, causing a shift in fabric that she did not miss his eyes following. She wanted nothing more than to run away. Except maybe to run into him. On accident, of course! As a mishap of trying to run out the door and away. And if that were to happen, then she would just wish it to be forgotten. But only by him. Because, well, how embarrassing.

"I-I forgot you weren't 12 anymore..."

Her eyes widened at the epiphany. It... worked. She was right. She was no longer a girl in his eyes. That stirred something within her. Something that banished the mortification in the pit of her stomach and replaced it with butterflies. Butterflies on fire, maybe. And suddenly, she had the most ridiculous impulse to ever occur in her - aside from the various nonsensical ones that often involved Naruto. She wanted to drop the robe. Drop the robe, and see what happened. How he reacted. What he would do. Do to her, if she were lucky. But, before she could act, the door had slammed shut. Him on the other side.

Her lips pursed slightly as disappointment washed over her, before her senses kicked in and her face burned with ripe embarrassment.

Only in her dreams was she so bold. Her imagination must be slowly overtaking her.

She gulped.
