Eyes through which I can see

Chapter 1: A run in

Hinata, Tenten and Sakura were best friends in their second year of high school. They were all in the same class that year. The year had begun and before they knew it pre-exams was all ready over. They had spent all their time and studying and were aiming high. In between, they had time to hang with their friends. Sasuke and Sakura would go out leaving Tenten and Hinata behind. Little did they know that would change very soon.

"Hey, Hinata!" Her best friend Sakura called.

"What's up Sakura-chan? She replied when her friend had caught up to her.

"You've got come see the results for the exams!" She exclaimed.

"Why, is there something special about them?" Hinata questioned in reply.

"Just c'mon Hinata-chan!" She nagged as she pulled her through the hallways by the arm.

All of a sudden, Hinata notices a crowd gathering in front of what usually is the bulletin board.

"Wow so many people!" Hinata thought to herself. Just then, Sakura let go of Hinata's arm when she caught sight of Sasuke. She waved to him, then she noticed that Hinata went flying right into a tall, blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy. Hinata was very flustered because being short, she was just above his waist. The tall, blonde-haired boy looked back over his shoulder and was very flustered when he saw the beautiful girl. Suddenly, Sakura and Sasuke ran over to see what was going on.

"I'm so sorry!" Hinata exclaimed through her red-faced embarrassment.

"I'm the one who should be sorry!" The blonde-haired boy calmly said in reply. Sasuke and Sakura run over to meet them.

"Are you okay Hinata-chan?" Sakura asked.

"Yes, I'm f-fine." She replied very shyly still gazing in his deep cerulean blue eyes. He was caught in her gaze. She then noticed her gaze and quickly looked away in embarrassment.

"Hyuuga-kun, I see you've met my friend Naruto Uzumaki. He's in my class-c." Sasuke announced.

"That's right, I knew I've seen you before," Sakura remembered, "You were the really annoying one that gave me a headache." Sakura continued her flashback. Naruto was sweat-dropped.

"It was that bad that you still remember it?" Naruto questioned. At this Hinata laughed and it wasn't just a chuckle either. It was a laugh-out-loud kind of laugh.

"Hinata-san, was it really that funny?" Naruto questioned. He was sort of sweat-dropped.

"That's really something; Hinata's never really laughed that hard before." Sakura said in reply.

"I-I'm s-so s-sorry Naruto-san, It's just I've never met someone with so much character. I truly admire it. Hinata shyly said apologetically.

"Don't go giving him a swelled head." Sakura scolded Hinata. Then she rushed Hinata to the class-B section of the bulletin board.

"I'm sorry Sakura-chan; I guess I might have hit my head." Hinata apologized.

"It's okay Hinata; I guess it was my fault. Anyway, this is what I brought you here for." Sakura said as she showed her bulletin board.

It read:

Class-B pre-exam results

Hinata Hyuuga

Sakura Haruno

"Wow Sakura-chan, you scored second!" Hinata said as she hopped up and down excitedly.

"Yeah, but it's not as good as first place! You rock Hinata-chan!" Sakura shouted in excitement.

"I guess, still we should check on how the guys did on their exams." Hinata implied.

"O-Kay, I guess we could." Sakura replied somewhat puzzled. They move over to the next list of results.

It read:

1. Sasuke Uchiha

2. -- --

3. Naruto Uzumaki

"You must congratulate Sasuke-kun. Even Naruto-san made third place." Hinata said excited and somewhat suspicious.

"I'm getting that you like Naruto-kun, Hinata." Sakura said a matter-of-factly.

"W-why would you say that?" Hinata asked, trying to hide her embarrassment.

"It's written all over your face and when Sasuke-kun introduced you, you couldn't take your eyes off him. Plus I'm positive he feels the same way about you." Sakura stated with confidence.

"You really think so? I know we just met but I feel like I've known him forever. I should probably get to know him more." Hinata pondered.

"Well your in luck, Hinata-chan, our homerooms will be doing a lot together really soon." Sakura said with excitement.

Hinata's eye's widened. "W-what do you mean?" Hinata stuttered.

"I mean the fall festival is coming up and Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei want to do this festival with combined homerooms.

Hinata marveled at the idea. This would be a perfect chance to get to know Naruto better. She just couldn't wait for the festival preparations. The excitement was just so irritating.

"I don't think I've ever wanted anything so much before in my life," Hinata thought to herself, "and we start preparing a week from today." Hinata pondered as they walked back to congratulate the boys. Everyone was so anxious to see how the festival would turn out, as early preparations began…

Until next time. Please Review!
