Author's Note: Yay! My first Fanfic! I will dutifully continue writing untill this story chooses to bring itself to an end (What? You actually though Authors wrote stories?! Tsktsk). You all are lucky I am better at typing than I am at printing(writing). Otherwise my story would look like this: Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi Soi. Can you understand that? I didn't think so. (For those of you who don't watch "Arbyn'Cheif" on , that is thew sound of a rolfcopter). One more thing, I had to change some parts of the story due to computer failingness xP. I couldn't use italics to represent thought. 'Cause I'm using the dumbest wordprossesser in excistance. It doesn't even really qualify as a word processor I have to spell-check this story but cut and pasting from this "Notepad" to my email accout, because I use the most awesome OS in existance (Mac), and my internet has spell-check (But this is actually a symptom of good internet service). This entire story is done on a Laptop T.T' .
Hope you leik it!!

Chapter 1
Now, where could Naruto be? Only at his favorite place in the world, Icharaku's Ramen of course! He was going down his twelfth bowl of the best Miso Ramen on earth with Iruka-sensei. They were celebrating Naruto's latest success in a mission to the Country of Wind. Not that Iruka-sensei needed a reason to treat his favorite student to ramen. Sadly, however, this victory was to be short lived, for, Naruto was about to receive his latest mission.
Hinata was standing just around the corner of the ramen stall, gathering up the courage to do what Tsunade-sama had bidden her. It was a simple mission, one that consisted of two words, "Fetch Naruto". But what was she going to say to him? She looked inside, and saw Naruto voraciously gulping down a thirteenth bowl. Iruka-sensei wasn't eating, as he had been full from his first. Iruka-sensei had been smiling, watching Naruto in a fatherly manner, when he noticed Hinata stealing a peek inside. Hinata realized she had been spotted, and spun around blushing furiously, and decided to enter the ramen stall before things got awkward.
"Oh, hello Hinata!" Iruka-sensei smiled through a teethy grin," what a surprise!"
Naruto turned around from his ramen and greeted, "Hey Hinata!"
Hinata blushed a bit more, if such a thing was possible, "K-k-konichiwa."
"Would you like to join us Hinata?" offered Iruka.
"Oh, o-okay." Hinata sat down in one of the stools , and a bowl of ramen was placed in front of her. She picked up the spoon nervously, and began to eat. She ate slowly, and by the time she had finished her bowl, Naruto was going down his twenty-fifth.
Iruka-sensei laughed, "Okay Naruto, you can stop now, before you eat me out of house and home preferably!"
"Um, Naruto-kun."
"Yeah Hinata?" replied Naruto.
"Um, well, I-I, um, Hokage-sama, that is-"
"Hm? Old lady Tsunade? What about her?"
"Um, well- She sent me , to um-"
"I think what Hinata is trying to say Naruto, is that she is here to fetch for Tsunade-sama." Iruka looked closely at Hinata, "Isn't that right?
Hinata poked her fingers together, "Y-yes."
"In that case, you two had better get going then," Iruka-sensei had a broad smile, "You wouldn't want to keep the Hokage waiting, after all!"
Hinata blushed yet some more, realizing the amout of time wasted eating ramen.
"Okay," replied Naruto, "Thank you Iruka-sensei!"
Hinata and Naruto left. And not a minute too soon it would seem. Because Iruka was given the bill for the meal shortly after their departure. His cries of empty-walletedness echo across all of the Village Hidden In The Leafs.
"Um, Naruto-kun, should we go back to see if Iruka-sensei is alright?"
"Don't worry about it Hinata."
The twosome arrived at the Hokages office. Tsunade had an impatient look on her face, and Shizune was petting Tonton. Strangly enough, Kiba was asleep in the corner.
"What on earth took you so long?!" Yelled Tsunade. This racket woke up Akamaru, who in turn woke up Kiba.
Hinata face went staright back to the red palor it had had when she had been caught by Iruka-sensei back at Icharaku's. "Um-"
"Hey Hinata's here!" exclaimed the slowly awaking Kiba, " and Naruto too!"
"We were eating ramen," Naruto mumbled," What did you get me for anyways?"
Tsunade starred hard at Naruto, before relenting, and saying, "Whatever, you have a mission on the outskirts of the Country of Fire. You are to go to the small village in the north-eastern most part of our woods. You three I have deemed to be the most suitible for this mission. You should make is their in one day, if your fast, though I don't recommend rushing into this one. The townsfolk are complaing of mysterious attacks their livestock. They go to bed one night, and wake up to find their cattle slughtered, et cetera. I want you three to find the source of the attacks, and neutralize it."
The now fully alert Kiba frowned, "Thats it, we just go now?"
"Any time now would be good." answered Tsunade.
After Naruto, Hinata, and Kiba left, Shizune asked Tsunade, "But Tsunade-sama, didn't you just throw them together because they were conveniently the only Ninja available?"
Tsunade stretched her arms and yawned, saying, "I feel like a trip to the Hot springs, don't you?"
Sometime later, Naruto, Hinata, and Kiba were walking through the forests of the Country of Fire. It was a long walk, and little was said. In order to express exactly how long they were walking for, I will add another ellipses.
At a clearing, Kiba said, "We should stop here for the night."
Naruto frowned, "Hey Kiba, isn't it a bit early to be setting up camp?" He pointed skyward, "It's still light out."
"Trust me on this one."
The threesome set up camp, and sat around a fire. They had nothing better to do, so they began to chitchat. Topics varied from "Kakashi's obsession with Flirting Paradise" to "Why do Gai and Lee grow their eyebrows so bushy?" Unfortunatly, Naruto was hungry, so their conversations ended up being rudely interupted by his growling stomach.
"He-he," Naruto put his hand over his tummy.
Because no-one had thought to bring any food along, Hinata offered, "Um, I could g-go foraging?"
"No need." Kiba stood up, and Akamaru jumped out of his sweater. He laughed, and said, "I'll go get some food for us all!" Then, before anyone could object, Kiba and Akamaru lept of into the distance.
This left Naruto and Hinata alone. Together. With only each other to keep company.
It was quiet. And dark. Naruto watched the stars, while Hinata watched Naruto. Eventually, Naruto glanced down, and noticed Hinata looking at him. She looked down at her feet, embarrassed. Naruto cocked his head, puzzled. After a few awkward moments, Naruto continued stargazing. And Hinata continued Narutogazing. She loved him so much, if only he knew. She loved his confidence. His deep, blue eyes. And the was his face would light up when invited to ramen. Like it was right now.
"Hinata! Look at that!" Naruto exclaimed, pointing at the sky.Hinata glanced up just in time to catch a glimpse of a star shooting across the sky.
"Now I make a wish right?" Naruto stood up, and punched the air excitedly, "I wish that I can be the one to bring Sasuke home!" He looked down at Hinata, "Who knows? Maybe this mission is connected to Orochimaru!"
Hinata stared at Naruto and said,"Um, think-" just before losing heart. Then, she gathered together all of the courage she felt like she had every had, and quietly said, "I think that if anyone bring him back, it would be you Naruto-kun." She stared at her feet, poking her fingers together at a MACH 1 pace. Such speed would put Lee to shame.
"Hinata..." He walked over to her, "Hinata..." Naruto sat down beside her,"Thank You."
A few awkward moments passed before Naruto tilted his head to the right and asked, "What are you going to wish for, Hinata?"
Hinata looked up to the boy beside her. It would have been so easy to confess her love at that moment. To tell him that her only wish was to be with him forever. Everything was perfect. She peeped deep into his blue eyes, "Um, I, um-that is I-"
Sadly, it was at this moment that Naruto's tummy decided to rudely remind everyone of how long it had been since they had last eaten. On one side, it lightened the atmosphere, on the other side, Hinata's words may have been lost forever.
"Hey, what's taking Kiba so long?"
Hinata closed her eyes and made the corresponding seal.
"Byuakugan." She scanned the area. No Kiba chakra anywhere near thier camp. Hinata relayed this peice of information to Naruto.
He stood up, "We should look for him."
Hinata stood up as well, "Okay."
The twosome lept off into the forest on their search for Kiba.
Well, that's the end of chapter one. Please Review. If you don't review I will be forced to kill you ; ). The more reviews I get, the faster I will write the story.
This story is just beginning, so I don't expect anyone to understand the title yet(except for me D).
Note: The rest of the story isn't exactly the same as this. What I mean, is that I'm not sure if there will be too many more NarutoxHinata moments like this. But it will get fun, so if you like Naruto, you should like this too (I hope, this is my intention anyways).
This Chapter is pretty short eh? I'm not sure how long this particular story is gonna be, 'cause I don't want it to be so long that it becomes boring, but I also don't want it to be so short that you can't enjoy some of the special moments that you can only enjoy in Fanfics (Like this NaruHina moment). Second Chapter's Coming any day now.
