Chapter 1 – Hidden Feelings

Hinata Hyuuga ran along the streets of the town, Konoha, her shoulder length dark-blue hair streaming behind her. Checking her watch she groaned. "Oh my god, I'm going to be late for school". Running faster she turned around the corner when suddenly…BAM.

She fell hard onto the ground, the contents of her school bag spilling out onto the street. Ouch…

"Crap!! I'm so sorry!! Are you alright???"

She looked up to see who she had collided with and blushed when she recognised who it was. A blonde haired boy with brilliant blue eyes bent down to help gather her stuff.

"N-Naruto-kun! I'll pick it up myself…" stuttered Hinata. Damn it, that stupid stutter's coming back.

Hinata had lost her stutter a long time ago but whenever Naruto was around or when she was nervous, it always seemed to come back.

Naruto straightened up, one of his sheepish smiles plastered onto his face. "Sorry…I wasn't looking at where I was going…"

Hinata stood up and shook her head, her face still red as a tomato. "N-no, it's ok…I wasn't l-looking either". Naruto flashed her one of his grins, making her blush even harder.

"Hey, your name's Hinata right?" .She nodded in reply. Wow, he actually remembers my name? The thought made her blush even harder, if that was possible.

"Hinata…? Are you all right? Your face is all red…" Hinata looked up and saw genuine concern in those beautiful blue eyes of his.

"Y-yes I'm a-alright" .He gave her another smile before giving a small wave and hurried off towards the direction of Konoha High School, leaving Hinata in a daze.

Oh my god…I can't believe he talked to me. She smiled happily at the fact.

rrrriiinnnnnnnggggg

The school bell brang her back to reality. "CRAAAAAPPP!!!" What a hell of a morning…

Hinata sighed with relief as she slumped over her school desk. The class buzzed with conversation and gossip as they waited for the teacher to arrive. Hinata closed her eyes as she relived the events of this morning…never would she dream that she would bump into her crush on her way to school.

Naruto Uzumaki was one of the most popular guys in school. He was the lead singer in his band, the Black Moon. It was a three member band which included him and his two best friends; Gaara, who played the drums and Sasuke, who was on guitar. The band was extremely popular with the girls and had a huge fan club.

But…to Hinata it was more than just a band that contained 3 pretty boys. The songs were her motivation, inspiration and lifted her up when she was depressed. She loved the sweet melodies, she was addicted to the beats of their songs and especially…she craved for the sound of Naruto-kun's voice.

Hinata sighed…she knew she shouldn't even have a crush on Naruto. After all…he was going out with Sakura Haruno, one of the prettiest and most popular girls in the grade. Hinata couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy.

She wished she could be Sakura for one day, even for only a minute, just so that she could talk to Naruto-kun. Even though they were in the same class, there would always be a continuous barrier of fan girls that surrounded the members of the Black Moon; making it impossible for a shy and quiet girl like Hinata to get close.

When she first found out that they were going out, she was devastated, but…it wasn't like he would ever like her…I mean, she was shy and hardly spoke; the complete opposite of Sakura. But she couldn't forget about him, there was just something about him that she couldn't let go…

"Hinnaattaaa?? Oi! Are you there???" A girl with her hair tied into two buns waved her hands in front of her face. Hinata snapped out of her train of thoughts and grinned at the other girl. "Hey TenTen!" The two girls had been close friends ever since primary.

TenTen sighed exasperatedly, "What is with you this morning? You came rushing into the classroom this morning, looking like you ran a marathon and now you're off to daydream mode."

Hinata huffed, "It's nothing…" TenTen smirked, "Oh, are you sure? Did anything happen with Mr. What'shisname over there?" Hinata lifted her head up from the table and saw Naruto laughing at a joke with a group of people.

She blushed a violent shade of red. "N-noo!! What are you t-talking about??!" stuttered Hinata…damn that stupid habit… "Well, he did come in at about the same time as you…" smiled TenTen evilly. Hinata glared at the other girl, "Ok!! Anyway, he has another gig tonight, you're coming right??"

Hinata eagerly nodded her head, "Definitely!!" TenTen smiled, "Right then, we'll meet up in front of your house this time. Oh! Apparently, they have a representative from a music agent to come and check out their songs tonight!!"

Hinata's eyes widened slightly. "Wow…that's awesome!!" TenTen nodded in agreement, a music agent being there could mean a huge possibility of getting a music contract.

"By the way…can I come over earlier today?" asked TenTen shyly. Hinata narrowed her eyes "Why…? Do you want to see Neji…?" Instantly, the other girl blushed at the mention of Hinata's cousin. Hinata giggled and got a punch from TenTen in response.

"Ok class! Lets get started today with some algebra" said Iruka sensei cheerfully as he entered the classroom. The class groaned and scrambled to get into their proper seats. Hinata smiled happily at the prospect of tonight, while Iruka rambled on about something.

She sneaked one glance at Naruto and saw his cute face scrunched up in attempt to concentrate. Sighing in content, she followed suit and tried to concentrate on the lesson.
