Chapter 2 – I Warned You.

Naruto glanced up and tried to hide his smirk. He was currently getting a clear view of Hinata's pink undies from under her short skirt. He was suddenly happy he had volunteered in helping set up the gymnasium for some type of festive. It wasn't his fault, Hinata had declined his offer to hang the banner. The girl really was clueless so he looked away, unfortunately locking eyes with a pair of familiar green ones.

"You do get he is looking right up your skirt, Hinata?" Sakura stated dryly as she and Sasuke through the golden doors. Naruto groaned mentally.

Hinata squeaked and began coming down the ladder he was currently holding in place at an alarming rate. He was forced into holding on tighter.

"I was not," Naruto whined weakly. "Why would I do something so perverted, Sakura-chan?"

"I-I don't think you were." Hinata announced face a bright crimson her fingers fumbling with one another.

"I really wasn't Hinata." Naruto nodded sincerely, smiling a little at the girl's actions..

"Liar," Sakura snorted just as Ino and Shikamaru arrived.

"What's up?" Shikamaru asked.

"Sasuke and I just caught Naruto staring up Hinata's skirt." Sakura announced again. Naruto felt like making her shut up and he certainly had ways of doing that.

"I really wasn't." He was beginning to get annoyed now. "Could you guys just help us? That is why you're here." They all nodded except Sakura. "Thanks." He climbed up the latter to finish what Hinata had started.

"I went by your house last night after our date because you forgot your jacket but you weren't there." Naruto heard Sasuke begin in a leading manner from below. He glanced down, Sakura didn't seem fazed at all and instead smiled a little.

"I was out." She announced simply.

"Well, obviously. I was just wondering…" Sasuke said he folded his arms, face going blank as if he couldn't have cared less. Naruto could very easily see that wasn't true.

"Yeah, stop wondering." She snapped, which surprised both Naruto and Sasuke, and walked away. Naruto watched her stalk away before glancing back down at his best-friend.

Sasuke glanced up similarly, locking eyes with Naruto. Naruto slowly looked away, shoulders heavy, stomach pained.

I'm sorry, Sasuke.

(O)

Naruto laughed. He was having a good time completing a project with Ino, Shikamaru, and Hinata as they worked on a creating a commercial for one of their film class at Ino's house.

"We could do shampoo commercial." Hinata suggested quietly. "Naruto has beautiful hair..." She fidgeted, "Ino too, I mean... No offense Shikamaru."

Shikamaru grunted.

Naruto snorted out a laugh and bit into another dango stick. "I like that idea."

Ino rolled her eyes. "You've liked every idea Hinata's suggested... since most of them have involved you."

Naruto grinned.

"It seems like this might be an go on all night. I'll get more coco." Ino said glancing at her watch. "Do you still want tea instead, Hinata-chan?"

"Hai"

"What abo-"

"Will you just go, Ino?" Shikamaru groaned. "You're going to bring back damn near everything in your kitchen anyway. Ino snarled at him, begins to berate her childhood friend about not telling her what to do.

Naruto glanced down at his own watch. It was already one in the morning. His phone vibrated in his pocket and against his leg. He took it out and glanced at it. It read: Employer. He hit ignore and shoved it back into his pocket. It rang again and again. The loud vibrating did not go unnoticed by the others in the room.

"Who's calling you this late?" Shikamaru questioned, sinking further into Ino's blue couch.

Naruto grinned nervously, "No one." The other boy frowned.

"Employer," Hinata asked out loud, having had leaned over his shoulder upon him pulling his phone out again.

Naruto jumped shoving the phone under his leg, "Y-Yeah."

"You have a job?" Hinata asked confused. The others also frowned at him suspiciously.

"If it is your employer you better answer." Ino standing up and gathering everyone's coffee mugs. "What are you a prostitute?" She laughed.

"Yeah," Naruto mumbled under his breath. He stood, "I'll be back," Naruto stepped outside.

"What?" He announced quietly into the cell, glancing back at the home.

"Why aren't you here?" Sakura's voice still held the tone she only used with him when they were alone in his bedroom, but it had hints of the regular, impatient Haruno Sakura in it. Everyday Sakura.

"I have things to do. I can't come right now." He looked back towards the house again.

"Why?" Her voice was low and quivered. He flinched.

"I'll give you your money back for today. I'm sorry." There was silence on the other end of the cell.

"You don't have to do that." The girl finally said. "You understand you don't have to do that, Naruto, don't you?"

"It's no problem, really." He quickly hung up. He walked back inside finding his friends looking suspicious. His phone vibrated with a text, he glanced down at it.

Employer: I'll wait for you, Naruto.

He clenched his teeth. He didn't want that.

"Are you alright?" Shikamaru asked. They all were looking at him strangely.

"Yeah, let's finish this."

(O)

"I don't think a boss should be calling this late at night, " Hinata began, bringing up what had happened nearly an hour ago. She glanced at him and bit her lip. "Seems sort of demanding for a high school student." Her gaze was locked on the outside of Naruto's car.

Naruto grinned forcefully. "You're not wrong. Its a very demanding job. Disrupts all sorts of things..."

"Then why don't you quit?" The girl asked, looking at him now. Naruto laughed.

"Maybe I will..." He laughed as he pulled in front of her house. She made no move for the door.

"Uh, you're home Hinata-chan." Naruto said thinking the girl simply wasn't paying attention.

"I'm scared." The girl answered back. Her face was bright with embarrassment.

Naruto frowned, "Of what?"

"I heard a whole lot of odd noises last night." She turned to look at him before quickly looking away. "No one is home either. My parents and Hanabi went to visit Neji at his college."

"Ah, no wonder I haven't actually seen him around." Naruto said, feeling bad about not even remembering his friend had graduated last year.

"Yeah, he's in New York," She explained, "New York state."

"I could go in with you." Naruto offered waiting on the rejection he was sure would come.

"Thank you, Naruto!" She gratefully smiled at him.

Naruto a little surprised turned off his car and followed Hinata inside her place.

(O)

"Because of what happened with my dad, my mom hasn't been healthy in awhile.. We barely had enough money to get by let alone for her medicine and things." Naruto announced sleepily as he sat on Hinata's couch, he leaned into the arm rest. The black haired girl was lying out on the floor on top of a gray rug. She had already changed into a pair of yellow sleeping shorts and a black shirt.

"How did you pay for it?" She asked her voice calm and steady, a wispy whisper. She must be sleepy.

Naruto hesitated. "I found a way." His fingers drummed against the brown cloth material.

Hinata yawned. "Is your mom alright now?"

"She's better..." He told her simply.

"Alright..." The girl said after a moment.

Naruto closed his eyes. He was exhausted.

"Naruto?" Hinata voice called him back awake.

"Yeah, Hinata?"

"You don't owe anyone money, right? You said your mother use to gamble..." She yawned.

Naruto waited for to continue her question, but the girl never did. Glancing back down at her he found her asleep curled up her face pressed against her brown couch.

Naruto smiled and planned on getting up so that he could go home, but exhaustion had other plans.

Naruto woke to find a pair of lavender eyes staring at him, only inches away from his face. He screamed. She screamed.

"Why were you so close, Hinata?" Naruto yelled out not really sounding angry at all, just tired.

Hinata sputtered and apologized over and over again as she took a seat beside him.

"You frown like this when you sleep." She finally said after he had sworn a million times it wasn't a big deal. She made a frown her eyes squinting dramatically and her lips pressed together in a line, as if trying to show him. He laughed despite himself, it was a cute face on Hinata. Hinata's blush deepened.

"I do not." Naruto announced weakly. He had no idea how he looked when he sleeps. He couldn't remember having any particular dream.

Hinata reached up and with a small finger touched the area between his eyebrows pushing it up. "Now you're not frowning." She told him seriously.

Naruto didn't say anything he only stared at her. His breath had caught in his throat. Hinata finally stopped avoiding his gaze and looked at him. She began to remove her finger from his forehead, but Naruto's hand caught the bottom of her chin and pulled her forward, his lips over hers.

Hinata had been surprised when Naruto had kissed her, but was more surprised at how good it felt. So good that the girl found herself on her back as Naruto's tongue exploring the inside of her mouth expertly. He then began kissing and sucked on her neck. His fingers were already brushing against her inner thigh. The alarm he had set up on his phone for waking him up, went off.

That had obviously drew Naruto back to reality. He sprang from her like a bullet out of a shot gun and stood awkwardly by the couch. "Sorry," He said sheepishly. He had always wanted to kiss Hinata.

Hinata only stared at him her eyes slightly glazed over. She began to giggle like a mad woman, a few tears even poured from her eyes.

"Uh, alright I better go." Naruto began heading towards the door.

"Wait," Hinata called. "Don't go."

"I really should," Naruto announced. "See you at school Hinata." He quickly left, silently kicking himself for leaving and grinning because he had finally kissed Hinata.

The boy walked in school finding the usual stuff going on. He walked up to Shikamaru, Ino, Sasuke, and Sakura.

"Hey guys," He greeted. They all threw greetings at him, except Sakura who looked at him a little longer then she should have. Green eyes a little brighter, mouth a little too thin.

"Did you and Hinata get home alright?" Ino asked barely looking up from the paper in her hands. "Shikamaru and I finished all of the hard stuff." She handed him the paper.

"Yeah she got home alright." Naruto answered taking the paper. "This is good." He announced looking over the paper.

"Hello, everyone," Hinata walked towards them looking happier than normal, smile bright. "What's that Naruto?" She asked pointing to the paper.

"Shikamaru and Ino finished our commercial." Naruto said handing her the paper.

"That hickey on your neck Hinata looks really painful." Sakura cut in her tone anything but friendly and concerned. Quickly everyone glanced at her before bringing their gazes onto Hinata.

Hinata quickly moved more of her hair down over her neck and smiled in embarrassment, then frowned.

"You have a hickey?" Ino asked confused then her eyes widened. "You have a boyfriend Hinata? Since when?"

All eyes fell on Hinata again, except Sakura who was staring at Naruto, hard. He noticed and spared her a quick glance before looking away. What in the hell was wrong with her?

Hinata giggled. "It's not a hickey. It's just I, uh... tried to kill a bug on my neck." Oh yeah everyone was going to believe that. Naruto actually found her attempt amusing. Hinata glanced at Naruto. He was smiling at her which made her feel better.

"It must have really hurt." He told her, with a small smirk. Hinata's face became even redder, but the girl nodded and smiled at him.

The bell rang.
