Lying there on his bed rethinking the event of his battle with Pain. Naruto can't help but to remember the words Hinata said to him on the battle field. "She says she loves me, I didn't even had a chance to talk to her about it."

He rolls over to his side to look at his clock and shock to see that it is 1o'clock. "Damn I can't fall asleep." He then jumps out of his bed and puts on his clothes. "Well I can't just lie-down all night just thinking about it."

He leaves his room and decides to talk a walk around the village. As he walks around the village he still remembers Hinata's confession. "Heh I would never expect Hinata to say that to me. I haven't able to talk to her since then." As Naruto turns the corner he is shock to see Hinata sitting on a bench staring at the stars.

Naruto walks up to her wondering what she was thinking about.

"Hey Hinata."

Hinata looks down, her face turns red as she is shock to see Naruto. she tries to make eye contact with him but can't help but to look down on the ground. "h h h hi Naruto."

"Is it alright if I sit right next to you"

She tries to look at him and gives off a soft reply. "yes it alright"

Naruto sat right next to her he looks over at Hinata, her head was facing the ground and her hair was covering her eyes. "Hinata you've changed a lot you were brave enough to fight Pain. I'm very sorry you got hurt."

Hinata looks over at him. Her eyes start to water as tears started to fall. "I'm sorry Naruto I didn't want to lose you. I couldn't bare to see you get hurt. But I end up getting hurt and you had to transfrom into the fox. It was very stupid of me to-."

Before she can finish her sentence Naruto wraps his arms around her and started to hug her. " No it wasn't stupid of you, you try to save me even thought he could've of killed you. You are not the shy girl you were back then." He then takes his hand and wipes the the tears off her face

Naruto then gets up off of the bench and helps Hinata up. He thens grabs her shoulders lightly. "Hinata when this war is all over we should spend some time out together."

Hinata looks at Naruto and nods lightly

The two of them turn around and started to head to there homes. Hinata turns back and runs back to Naruto. "Hey Naruto." As soon as Naruto turns around Hinata runs up and kisses him. "I'll wait for you just kick Sasuke's ass and return home safely." She thens turns back around and started to head home.

Naruto gives off a smile as he tilts his head back and looks at the stars. "I will win I'll beat Sasuke and finish this war." He then turns back around and heads home.
