S u m m a r y:

Hyuuga Hinata is a famous fashion designer from Japan. Her dreams finally come true when she lands a spot in the famed New York Fashion Week alongside other big named famous designers. But there's just one problem, she needs one more male model to help her on the runway. Namikaze Naruto is a poor Japanese-American boy barely even earning a dollar a day to eat. Until one fated day, these two cross paths on a busy intersection of Times Square. This is their story.

O O O O O O O O O O O O

Jet lag is one hell of a bitch, especially towards Hyuuga Hinata. Finally stepping off non-stop flight from Tokyo, Japan to the Big Apple, it was already late afternoon when they arrived. She slowly walked her way through the parting gate. Once her feet were stable she stretched her whole body with a big yawn. When she finished she fixed her navy colored skinny pants and pulled down her stripped layered shirt and hand knitted sweater. She then reached into the duffle bag that she was carrying and took out a pair of shiny patent nude colored high heeled pumps.

Behind her, a rather tall platinum-haired girl by the name of Yamanaka Ino, who was just as stylish as Hinata, was holding a couple of duffle bags herself and very stylish tan leather briefcase. She gently placed the bags down beside Hinata and proceeded to yawn and stretch herself like her friend.

"A two day flight that seemed to never end, "Ino yawned as she continue to stretch. "I swore I saw you drawing in your sleep."

"Was it really two days Ino-chan?" Hinata giggled as she watched the girl trying to get comfortable. Signing to Ino to pull her short white laced shorts down more and to tuck in her shirt and fix her vest. "I was busy drawing up some new designs for the men's winter line. I felt a sudden burst of inspiration and I couldn't stop."

"Le sigh, your brain doesn't stop does it?" Ino continued and finally stopped stretching and yawning. "What's taking the others so long?"

"Sorry that took so long," Said another female voice steadily coming closer to the two girls. "Sakura-rin and I were trying to make sure we didn't forget anything on the plane."

Walking towards Hinata and Ino were a beautiful brunette with her hair in two Chinese buns, Hyuuga Tenten and a silent pink haired beauty named Haruno Sakura. Both girls were dragging behind medium sized luggage as if they were light as air. And just like Ino and Hinata both were fashionable even for getting off a two day flight and stretched and yawn to feel comfortable.

"I'm so happy to be back in New York, I can't wait to see my husband!" Tenten smiled as she brushed off and dust from her emerald colored shirt-dress. "And besides these flip flop shoes are only meant to be worn to the beach!"

"Ne, Hinata-chan, did you call the guys to come pick us up?" Sakura said through her yawns as she took off her sweater to reveal plain white shirt and ripped skinny jeans. Hinata simply smiled back in reply and pointed behind Sakura. They were then greeted by familiar voices and even warmer hugs.

Holding Sakura from behind was a well dressed Uchiha Sasuke. He didn't say a word and just held onto the woman as if she was going walk away at any moment. Kissing his wife for the first time in a week was Hyuuga Neji, husband to Tenten and cousin to Hinata. After their passionate kiss he turned to his cousin and hugged her.

"I'm sorry if Sasuke and I were late, Hinata-sama" Neji said as he gently grabbed his wife's hand and held it. "Sai and Kiba should here soon to help get the rest of the things. And I'm pretty sure you're all very hungry from the two day flight."

The sound of stomach growling came forth breaking the short silence. The small group of friends giggled at the event and was finally joined by Inuzuka Kiba and Satoshi Sai. The young men were pushing a cart that was piled on with bags and what seemed to be tightly sealed boxes. Sai being the gentleman that he is, took the bags that were beside Hinata and place them neatly on the cart with the others belongings. After that he finally gave Ino the hug that he'd be waiting for a week or two.

"Sai you idiot…" she said softly in his ear as he held her close to him.

"Gomen ne my angel," Sai smiled as he let her go and took her hand.

"Well if you all are done being love-dovey can we please get a damn move on. I'm hungry and I want sushi damnnit." Kiba said impatiently.

"Just because you don't have a girl friend, doesn't mean you have to get all angry." Sasuke spoke in his smooth voice while flicking his raven hair back. "Beside you're slouching and we can't have one of Hinata-san's models slouching. It makes you look ugly."

"S-shut up and stop trolling me Sasuke-teme!" Kiba spat back obviously very annoyed.

"You mad bro?" smirked Sasuke.

"Alright calm down both of you." Hinata interrupted just in time before a major fight could start. "I won't have any of my male models arguing amongst themselves. It makes veins appear on your neck and face and gives you dark circles. And I won't allow you boys to look less than perfect on the runway. "

"The fact that Hinata-sama has to talk to both of you in her 'boss' voice means you both had better listen." Neji interpreted as he guided his wife over towards the main exit. "I suggest that you gentlemen help load the limo then we'll go eat."

And without any hesitation the boys did as they were told. Hinata sighed slightly and put her right hand to her forehead. She hated using her 'boss' voice. It was just when she's upset, or wants something done right she would use that demanding voice that was always in the back of her throat and mind.

"You shouldn't stress yourself too much Hinata-chan." Sakura spoke in a worried tone.

"I know I could use some dessert to settle my nerves." Hinata sighed. "I swear I could eat a whole cake with all that is happening."

"EH! You can't ruin your amazing curvy figure!" Ino said as her jaw dropped slightly. "We can't let our 'Hime-sama' be outshined like that likes of that Armenian woman, Kim Kardashian!"

"Ino-chan did you forget Kim-san is one of our admirers."

"That's only because you wore that super sexy all black lace body hugging dress to the Emmy's a few months ago and she wanted right off the red carpet!"

"And I made that same dress to her measurements Ino-chan."

Ino sighed at her friend. Sometimes she couldn't believe the things Hinata would do for her fans or clients. She had been Hinata's right hand girl since the beginning and even now Hinata would always want her opinion and designs and gave her full credit where it was due. She was way too generous.

"Hey Ino-chan…"

"Hmmm?" Ino replied her train of thought coming to a complete stop.

"I want you to find me another male model before fashion week begins."

Ino stopped in her tracks, as Hinata turned around to look at her best friend. The blond girl spoke in such a fast and frantic voice.

"What's wrong with any of the boys we have now? Kiba is the wild and untamable by any woman standards. Neji-san is the business man. Sai is the perfect gentleman. Sasuke-kun is the host type. Chouji is the cute best friend. Shikamaru is a player. Gaara is the loveable type. Lee is the strongman, and last but not least Shino is the strong silent type." She stopped to catch her breath." What are you looking for this time?"

Hinata just stared at Ino with a serious expression on her face as if she were at a business meeting and replied to the girl in her 'boss' voice.

"I want a guy who is 'different' by every standard, one with hair that is wild yet can be passive. Eyes that can pierce your soul and a tall strong body that isn't too pale or extremely tanned. He must be at least six foot none the less."

Ino smirked and bowed politely at Hinata, nodded and replied, "Hai Hime-sama!"

And with that the girls laughed and ran towards the rest of the group. After all the luggage and bags were put away Neji order the driver to the Japanese restaurant in Time's Square. The groups of friends were enjoying each other's company as they made their way to the eatery when the driver suddenly stopped.

"Driver-san why did you stop?" Neji asked the man.

"I'm sorry Neji-sama but it seems we've gotten a flat tire." The driver replied remorse as he stepped out of the limo. "It will take a little while to fix Neji-sama."

Neji sighed and leaned back. Tenten then patted her husband's chest in reassurance. Telling him that the restaurant was only a couple of city blocks away and they could walk. Everyone in the limo agreed to talk the extra way, saying it would be good to stretch their legs.

A couple of blocks away a tall man with golden blond hair and 'whisker' birthmarks on his face sat at the corner of the street with a cup in his hand. His clothes were ragged and dirty and so was his appearance. He was spat upon by some of the passersby and a few of them gave them what small change they had in their pockets into his cup. This man was Japanese-American boy named Namikaze Naruto.

It was about a fifteen minute walk for Hinata and her group to make it to the busy intersection where the eatery was. The street was starting to get a lot more crowded.

"Everyone try to stay together!" Neji said loudly so the group could hear him. "It's easy to get lost in the crowd."

And with that the group crossed the busy street and made it to their destination. But there was one thing that was missing. Hinata unfortunately got separated from her friends. She was still on the opposite side from them. She couldn't see them or hear them cry out for them.

"Neji-nii-san! Ino-chan, Sakura-cha-"she cried until being grabbed and mouth covered her hand. She couldn't breathe and started to panic. This man was strong and she could feel him trying to unbutton the front bottom of her pants. She could feel him forcefully holding himself upon her body and felt his hard boner through his pants tapping her perfectly round bottom.

"A pretty girl like you all alone in a big place like this," The stranger whispered into the panicking girl's ear and licked her cheek. "You're asking to be fucked lady. Now how bout' you and I head over to my place where my friends and I would treat them curves of your right."

'I'm going to be kidnapped, raped or even worst!' Hinata screamed in her head. Her thoughts were racing as tears started to flood her eyes. She felt all of her dreams of becoming a famous international designer shatter in the hands of this stranger. If only she stayed closer to her cousin and friends.

"If I were you I would get your hands off her." A sultry deep voice spoke calmly.

Hinata's eyes widened and stopped crying. Somehow that voice comforted her and washed away her panic. Then she felt her molester's body ripped from hers and heard a loud crash in a nearby alley. She saw her attacker on the ground lifeless, his mouth foaming slightly.

She looked around her to see who her savior was and there he was standing slightly in front of her. He slowly turned to her. She looked at him head to toe, messy but wild golden blond hair, and the broad muscular body that was showing through his ravaged dirty clothes. He was tall, at least six feet and had the perfect light caramel tan. But what caught her attention were the three 'whisker' birth marks on each side of his face and his cerulean eyes. She could feel herself getting lost in those beautiful eyes.

"Are you alright miss-"the man asked?

"Your name" Hinata quickly said with a blush on her face.

He looked at Hyuuga beauty and raised an eyebrow, "Namikaze Naruto."

To be continued…

A/N: It's been a while since I wrote anything and normally I usually write one shot or song-fics. But I got this story idea from a dream I had. I'm actually a fashion design student and this would be the kind of drama I would be watching if it were on television.

Anyway side notes: Sai's last name "Satoshi" is actually the last name of his Japanese voice actor "Satoshi Hino". Also this is an Alternate Universe and Naruto's parents are actually alive but they'll be making an appearance in the story later. Hinata's 'boss' voice seems a bit OOC but it works if she needs to get stuff done. Other than that she's her cute normal shy-ish type self. You see I also made Tenten and Neji married in the story. Don't argue with my logic since you're reading a Naruto and Hinata fic.

You'll also be seeing some big names in fashion or icons make their way into the story as to either pay a tribute or make fun of them. I love keeping up with the kardashian's, well to be more honest I love Khloe Kardashian-Odom.

Next chapter will go up when I feel like it or if I get enough reviews. Sorry if there's any errors and shit it's been awhile. And if you have any questions feel free to ask but please make sure to leave a name so I can troll you later =P jk
