Disclaimer: Me: I do not own Naruto in any shape or form!

Gaara: Then why write the story?

Me: Because it is every fan girl's job to write crazy awesome fan fictions!

Gaara: You mean getting their hopes up?

Me: NOOOOOOO! You will have Hinata! RRRRAAAAAWWWRRR!

Gaara: So this is what happens when your out of school and don't have a job.

Me: -_-'

Gaara: Please don't flame her, her writing skills match that to a third grader and I make fun of her enough as is.

Me: Your so mean! WHAAAAA! *Runs away*


Can there be love in a Marriage?

Hinata was walking along the road like she did every morning. She loved watching the children play and the town's people hurry by. The weather was always fair and beautiful in the village. "Konoha is full of wonder" Hinata though to herself. Hinata is the daughter of Hiashi Hyuuga, leader of the Hyuuga clan. She was the heiress to the clan, that is until her father found a better use for her.

Flashback:

"Hinata" Hiashi said in a stern voice.

Hinata sat in front of him in the proper manner to which she was taught.

"Yes father" she answered.

"I have been thinking for some time now, I believe you are not a good choice to be the next leader."

She felt a stabbing pain hit her heart.

"You are a very poor ninja, you don't have the will power to run this clan." he continued,

" So I have decided to make your sister the heiress, and to marry you off."

Hinata couldn't believe what she was hearing. She felt ashamed but she couldn't fight back, she bowed.

"Yes f f father, I u understand." she shutter and hated herself for doing so.

She hated to think about that now, she wanted to enjoy the day but her father's words still replayed in her mind. She couldn't help but feel sorry for herself, but alas there was nothing she could do. She wasn't a ninja anymore, which made matters worst. Her father had informed the Hokage of his decision and much to Naruto's dismay, he had to agree to it. Hinata had been over her crush on Naruto for some time now, but they were closer friends than ever. He had promised her that he would help her father chose a good husband for her and not an old man! She was grateful to have him on her side.

Hinata had been so lost in her thoughts, she ran into someone knocking herself down. She was so embarrassed by her action and began to apologize, while looking up she couldn't see who it was because the sun had blinded her. A hand came out for her, and she grabbed it still apologizing until she saw who it was. It was the Kazekage! Her face started to turn red, she couldn't believe she did that!

"I am s-s-so sorry Kazekage, I wasn't looking where I-I was going! Its my fault! I am very so-sorry!" she kept bowing.

Gaara looked at the woman, he was trying to remember who she was. She had long dark hair, her bangs had framed her pale face she had bright eyes, her skin was pale but looked so soft. Her voice was low and angelic in some way. Her cloths showed the curves she had. Now he remembered, Hinata Hyuuga, from the exams…."she has filled out quit a bit" Gaara though. He watched her bowing for a few more minutes before stopping her.

"Its alright" he said in a cold voice.

Hinata though she had angered him, she looked up to see. He was taller from what she remembered, his red hair had grown as well, his eyes had a dark lining around to what look like beautiful light green eyes….or were they light blue? Breath taking either way. Her face turned darker while thinking about his body. "No, stop, bad girl!" she said to her self. Gaara broke the silent's.

" I am her to see Naruto, but I have forgotten where the building is, would you mind helping me?" Gaara voice remained in a cold monotone state.

"Hai…I-I-I can h-help." she shutter.

Hinata could kick herself, she bowed again and led him towards Naruto's office.

They walked in silent's, Gaara walked beside Hinata, he notice her face was flushed and wondered if she was sick or still embraced for earlier. He couldn't help but steal looking at her, he never really looked at women. He was far too busy for such things, but it didn't stop his older brother from teasing him so. Hinata has a grace to her, one that you don't see in women now of days. He looked ahead to keep him focus on the road, but now he was daydreaming too.

"Kazekage-sama were here" Hinata said,

Gaara snapped out of daydreaming.

"Naruto's office is on the top floor" she said.

Gaara nodded his head,

"Thank you" he said before leaving her.

Hinata watched him walk into the building, she then turned around and walked back to the Hyuuga compound. She couldn't help but think about how handsome Gaara had gotten.


"Gaara! How have you been buddy?!" Naruto said while running towards his old friend.

Gaara held his hand out and welcomed the crazy fox friend with a hand shake and small smile.

"I am well"

Gaara and Naruto began to sit down and get down to business.

"I heard that your council is pushing you to marry, is it true?" Naruto asked.

Gaara nodded.

"Hai, they want to ensure an heir, it has become, how would you say troublesome" Gaara was thinking about his sister's boyfriend, the lazy ninja.

"Yea, it sounds like it friend" Naruto smiled.

"With that in mind I have a question for ya."

Gaara was all ears.

"Do you know who Hinata Hyuuga is?" Naruto questioned.

Gaara nodded his head.

"I know of her, in fact I just ran into her, she helped me get here." Gaara replied.

"That is great to hear! Anyways I called you here to tell you I have found you a perfect little wife" Naruto said.

Gaara was still confused. Naruto jumped up

"Oi you know who I'm talking about!"

Gaara still looked confused.

"Hinata! She is perfect!" Naruto said in excitement.

Gaara's eyes grew wide at this. "Hinata...my wife?" he though.

"Why?" Gaara asked.

"What? Why?!" Naruto jumped.

"She has it all! Family, kindness, love, sex appeal, :D"

Naruto went on. Gaara shook his head.

"No, why is she being handed off for marriage? Isn't she the heiress of her clan." Gaara questioned.

Naruto then had a depressed look cross his face.

"She was" He replied,

"But not anymore, her father said she brought shame on the family as the heiress and named her sister as the future leader. He even pulled her from her ninja duties."

Gaara saw his friend in a way he has never seen him before. Naruto had his head down, his eyes filled with sadness, not his normal self. Naruto then dropped to his knees and bowed to Gaara.

"Please my friend! Help me help Hinata!"

Gaara was shocked by this.

"She is my friend and I cant bare for her to be unhappy with some stranger! I know you are a good man, and I know you can protect her from anything. Please Gaara...Please."

Naruto was on the brink of tears. Gaara dropped down to Naruto's level and help him up.

"Yes, I will accept Hinata as my wife" Gaara said while holding up his friend.

Naruto's eyes lit up with joy and bowed.

"Thank you Gaara! Thank you" Naruto was back to his normal self.

Naruto ran out his office to tell someone to send the Hyuuga's over ASAP. Gaara walked over to the windows and looked across the peaceful town.

"Can I protect her…..can I make her happy?" Gaara though.
