My first story ever! I love Hinata, and I've recently been into KakaHina pairings, so I decided to give it the old college try! Please read and review! Even if you hate it, let me know :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Like, not even a little bit.

It's Alright with Me

Hinata sighed as she lowered her arms, holding her flute firmly in her left hand. Marching practice had just ended, and she was exhausted. How others believe that bowling is a sport and marching band isn't was beyond her. Band geeks had to endure blood (well, mostly Choji due to his two left feet), sweat and tears on a daily basis, with grueling work hours with little pay... Well, zero pay. She walked stiffly off of the makeshift marching field, towards her lone instrument case and music. While putting her instrument away, Hinata looked over her shoulder, towards her laughing comrades—er, acquaintances. Her "band fam" as they liked to call themselves barely knew her at all. One day, we'll walk off of the field together, she thought to herself. Hinata furrowed her brow and turned to walk home, but was soon stopped by a booming voice over the loud speaker, usually used by the band director, Mr. Iruka. On this occasion Naruto, our blonde, high-spirited trumpet playing band-captain decided to speak, much to everyone's dismay.

Naruto inhaled happily, then shouted "Listen up! Tomorrow morning we will be having a guest conductor! 7:30 A.M.! Don't be late, or you'll have to run a lap! Sasuke, you have to run a lap regardless, because you're a bastard!" Naruto chuckled through the last half of his announcement, quickly running away from an angry Sasuke, who was more than willing to use his drumsticks to beat Naruto to a bloody pulp. Hinata giggled to herself, having seen yet another example of the boys playful friendship. A pale shade of pink found its way upon her face as she found herself in the path of the rowdy boys. Naruto, who was walking backwards while teasing Sasuke, had no way of seeing Hinata, who had become frozen into her spot on the field. Naruto promptly stumbled over her, causing the pair to fall to the ground, evoking a small shriek from Hinata.

"Ow! Damn that hurt! You okay Hina-chan?" Naruto quickly stood up and held out a hand, suggesting that Hinata do the same. Hinata hesitated and looked at his tan, calloused hand like a deer in headlights. Her eyes traced up Naruto's toned arms, broad shoulders and whiskered face, glistening with sweat yet still harboring his classic, hopeful smile. His smile reached his cerulean eyes, which danced as they looked for a sign of forgiveness in Hinata's. Shaking herself out of her stupor,Hinata flushed, nodded and was quickly hoisted up by Naruto.

"I-I... T-thanks, Naruto-kun..." With that, Hinata turned around, and proceeded to walk home, leaving a slightly confused Naruto. Well that was weird... She looks a little different... And those white eyes... Maybe I should start running into her more often, Naruto thought, with a slight grin on his face.

Hinata fumbled with her keys outside of her home, still shaking with embarrassment from her incident on the field earlier. Before finding the right set of keys, Hinata gave her duplex a once over, looking to the left and seeing that the "For Sale" sign that was once hanging from the vines that cascaded around the house was replaced by a "Sold" sign. She absentmindedly wondered who was soon to be her new neighbor while unlocking the final lock to her front door. Once she found herself inside of her home, she quietly said "I'm back," knowing that no one would answer. Though she had family, they were almost never home, due to their busy schedules. In fact, calling her half of a midsized duplex a "home" was a bit of a stretch, because it constantly contains only two people at max. Hiashi, Hinata's father, was constantly away on business trips, for he was the CEO of Hyuuga-Corp, the world's leading optical medicine company. Even when her father was in town, he rarely visited with the family; he just simply owned the duplex. Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister, was home only during school breaks because she attended the Village of the Sand Boarding School, a prestigious all-girls school. The person that was most often found at home with Hinata was her cousin, Neji Hyuuga. Neji, who was recently elected Student Body President constantly served to be Hinata's polar opposite. Unlike Hinata, he was popular, good at sports, commanding, and had an active love life. The only thing the two had in common was their pale complexion, long, flowing locks (though his were auburn and hers were jet black with a midnight blue tint) and wide, waxen white eyes, void of pupils and colored with a hint of lavender. Hinata sighed, knowing that Neji would most likely be home late, for he had Student Council activities, as well as friends to go out with. Allowing the aspect of loneliness to replace her thoughts of embarrassment, Hinata quickly disrobed, showered and went to bed, just as the sun was setting. Her eyelids began to feel heavy, as if the weight of her long, raven eyelashes became to heavy to uphold. She closed her eyes, dreaming of music, a certain blued-eyed trumpet player and curious thoughts of a new possible companion next door. She sighed one last time and drifted off into a deep slumber.

Welp, that's the first chapter! Sorry, it's kinda short!

This might end up being a NaruHinaKaka!

I had fun writing this, and I can only hope you had fun reading!
