Set in Hinata's P.O.V

A/N: Hinata OOC and Sasuke OOC

*o*o*

For the next 3 and a half weeks I have been ignoring Naruto, I've been arriving to class as soon as the last bell rings..giving no time for him to speak to me. I've left as soon as the bell rings..I don't stay and ask questions about the upcomming exam or extra credit requests like I normally do.

I take the long way to my classes insted of the short way to avoid seeing him in the halls. When I do see him in a certain time, I make sure that Sasuke-kun is with me or that I'm with Ino-chan (she's another friend of mine that I met through Sasuke-kun).

But the strangest thing of all...

Is that I've caught Naruto watching me a couple of times...when we're in class and we're doing our work or watching a movie I can sort of 'feel' his eyes on me. I caught him once when I accidentally dropped my pencil, since I had to turn to lean down and fetch it I noticed him starring at me out of the corner of my eye.

It's been pretty easy but also very difficult, since he's one out of the two students (the second one being Ino) with blonde hair it's very noticeable.

That was until my thoughts of avoiding him came to an end...

In Iruka-sensei's class we were informed that we were going to go hiking as a class trip, actually all of the Science classes were going hiking which meant that Sasuke-kun would be there too. Now I've never been hiking my whole life so I didn't know what I was going to do and also it was said that it's in the mountains and I HATE HEIGHTS!

The good thing about it was that our teacher assigned us partners..now I didn't have any friends in this class but I do have people who I have spoken too loads of times and seemed nice.

First is Tenten, she is a girl with two buns...she's sort of a tomboy but she is very nice. I wouldn't mind If me and her were partners because she has told me about her expierence in hiking.

Next is Kiba Inuzuka, I met him actually at the park. I had found his dog Akamaru who had escaped from him, his dog is white, small, and very cute. Kiba has told me that he has been camping and that one day I should join him and Akamaru. Heheh he is very funny and I enjoy talking to him.

Lastly is Shikamaru...he is very lazy and mostly everyone thinks he's failing but he's actually one of the top people throughout the whole school. Me and him sometimes get together and go over our homework, he helps me study and in return I play Shogi with him every once in a while. He's also very smart and wise for his age...I wouldn't mind being paired up with him.

As Iruka-sensei calls the names the two people have to go up and choose the color of their backpack, inside it has everything that's needed for the trip.

"Next two come up please..." he says to the class, the students were already looking inside, some were playing with the equipment...so childish.

"Hinata Hyuga and Naruto Uzumaki..." wait a minute...what did he say...

That didn't sound like Tenten...Kiba...nor Shikamaru...

'Naruto...he's my partner...out of everyone in this class I have to be paired up with him!?' I think angrily and shocked. Here I was trying to ignore the guy and you pull this trick on me Iruka-sensei?! Thanks alot...'

"Hinata and Naruto, hurry I have other students waiting." he says in a louder tone of voice. I stand up "H-Hai..." I respond and slowly make my way towards the table...

This is very nerve-wrecking...

I know he's walking behind me...we both are standing next to each other in the table. We don't say anything to each other...we don't even look at one another...our eyes are focused at the different colored backpacks.

I can't see him, what is he doing..? What is he thinking...? Does he also dread the idea of being partnered with me? Is he looking at me now?

"Now choose a color..." the teacher tells us.

I scan the different colored backpacks...if I was with Tenten we could have gotten purple.

With Kiba, he would have gone with green..since he says it reminds him of grass, which reminds him of Akamaru.

And with Shikamaru he would have let me choose but I would have known he would like grey.

"-you want?"

I jerk my head up and for the first time in weeks look at the eyes of Naruto Uzumaki. "S-sorry what did you say...?" I ask him. I didn't hear him because I was into my thoughts.

"I said which color would you want?" he asks as he looks back at the table. I look back down also as I slowly shrug my shoulders. "I-It doesnt matter to me..." I say honsetly.

"Hmmm.." he nodds as he picks up the orange one. Iruka smiles at us. "Good, now you two may sit, you can look over the equipment if you'd like..." we nodd and make our way towards our seats. He sits behind me..but unlike the other students I don't turn my chair around..I don't want to look at him anymore today.

I hear movement behind me and I look at my desk...it appears as if someone is turning the desk infront of me..until I see the orange backpack ontop of my desk. I look up again and see Naruto opening the bag.

"Let's see what juicy stuff is in here..." he says normally. He pulls the equipment out and inspects all of them, he even plays with the flashlight a little bit, shining the students in the eye with it's light. Even though I'm still pissed off at him, i couldn't stop myself from smiling.

However I regreted that he saw me, he looked shocked until he grinned at me "Hey, you smiled at me, you finally smiled at me!" he said. My face went pink as I quickly looked back towards my desk. I see him lean towards me as I lean back.

I don't want to speak to him...I don't not after what he...

"I knew you would smile at me eventually!" he says as he leans closer toward me...please stop.

"You know...you really smell nice Hina-chan..."

This is an act...

Hahaha you actually thought that I would say you smell nice HAHAHAH!"

All just an act...

Just then the bell rings and I quickly grab my stuff and leave. I could hear Naruto calling me but I kept walking, I just wanted to go home and sleep this off.

*o*o*

It was raining outside...and I didn't even bring a jacket with me, I had just assumed that it wasn't going to rain today.

The worst part of it is..I'm a walker...

Sasuke-kun had a doctor's appointment so he had to leave right away, meaning I was walking alone.

I also can't call my parents because knowing them they will scold me for not bringing a coat and not being responsible.

So I started walking, the rain was cold and hard and it was already soaking my clothes and my hair.

"-nata!"

It felt as if someone was calling my name, but I couldn't really tell because of the rain. So I kept on walking in the rain.

"-nata!"

Now that time I could have sworn that I heard my name, I turn around but the rain had somehow caused a fog. But I seem to see a light in the middle of what appears to be the street.

I'm freezing and it's very cold...I just want to get home, so I turn and continue my way home...I then hear a ringing sound and when I look next to me...I am surprised at who I see.

The blonde hair...blue eyes...Naruto!?

"Hinata, I was hoping I'd catch up to you...what are you doing in the rain?" he asks me...I'm too cold that I remain quiet. He then gets out of the bike and hands out an umbrella towards me. "Take this and let me walk you home..." he says.

I stare at him confused...why would he give me an umbrella, why would he offer to walk me home...? It's all a lie...it's probably a joke...he might laugh at me tomorrow.

An act...

"N-N-No thank you..." I say lowly as I start to walk past him, but I feel a hand grip mines firmly yet softly...I look with wide eyes at him.

His stare is filled with...affection? "N-Naruto...?" I say in between shivers.

"Please Hinata, you'll get sick like this, here just take the umbrella, don't worry about me I have my coat and hood." He grinns at me, even though it's cold...I could still feel my cheeks warm up.

I stare at the now drenched orange umbrella...and even though it wouldn't do any good to my already wet body...it looked like a warm fussy coat calling my name. I slowly noticed that my hand reached out and touched it...however it actually touched Naruto's hand since he was gripping it with his hand. His eyes look surprised as he looks at me...

For a while we both stare at one another...nothing but the drops of rain...the sleezying sound of cars passing by and our breaths. His cheeks were also red but not as red as mine I bet...

He quickly removes his hand as he scratches the back of his head. "Yea...well...see ya tomorrow Hinata.." with that he gets back on his bike and drives away.

I stand there with the orange umbrella...my hand touches the spot Naruto's hand touched...it feels warm... "Thank y-you...Naruto" I say to no one as I resume my walk.

Luckily my parents weren't home when I arrived...they must be at a party or something...they took Hanabi again. It doesn't really bother me that they take Hanabi to their gatherings. I know they do it because I'm too timid and I would stutter alot.

So I shower and come out of my bathroom with a towel wrapped around me and drying my hair with my towel.

I place Naruto's umbrella in the garden room, I turn on the heater so that it can dry faster. I make my way towards the kitchen and heat up the food that's already waiting for me in the microwave...

After a few hours I lay on my bed...thinking of all the events that happened today. I just don't understand Naruto...one minute he's insulting me and the next he's nice to me and showing that he cares..

I look at my hand...the hand that he touched...

Then I remember his gaze, how it was so intense..so deep. And in the classroom..how close his face was towards me.

UGH! Stop this Hinata! Your falling for his fakeness...this is just an act! He's only being nice to meet because we're partners..nothing else...

That's it for this chapter, leave me your opinions please and thank you!
As always I apologize for any grammer errors I made, I write and tend to forget to go back and review..and yes I know that wrong. I will try to remember..

See you all next time! ^o^
