YY100: ah, sorry the last one was so short, I wrote it at seven in the morning on a Saturday…

Kakashi: Why? I've never seen you up until nine at the earliest.

YY100: Well I woke up at seven randomly and fell back asleep, and then the idea hit me so I had to run to the computer as fast as I could to write it down…

Kakashi: You are very odd…

YY100: No ^%&% shit, Sherlock.

Naruto: Let's just start? YamiYugi100 does not own Naruto or any of its characters.

Once Bitten, Twice Shy

Chapter 2

Naruto's P.O.V

'Hinata?' I thought, blinking. She blinked back; her small figure was ready to run in case I hissed again. Instead I stood there like an idiot, and she stood there too. Minutes passed by and finally Hinata spoke. "H-Hey little k-kitty." She said this softly, like not to startle me, "Wh-What are you doing out he-here? A-Are you lost?" "Ayah! Hinata, its Naruto! I'm a cat!" I tried to tell her, but the meows just came out again. She laughed a bit, "Y-You remind m-me of someone, kitty..." She whispered and shyly walked towards me.

I tensed up as her hand came down on my head, but I relaxed immediately when I realized why cat's liked to be pet. I suddenly found myself pawing at the ground, my tail twitching in delight, and a weird sound coming from the back of my throat. 'Oh, so this is what it feels like to purr.' I thought as the sound got louder. Hinata giggled and said with another one of her shy smiles, "Y-You're such a sweet kitty. W-would you like to come home with m-me?"

Go home? With Hinata? Why? "Oh yeah, I'm a cat, that's why." I meowed aggravated. What else was I supposed to do though? I walked up to Hinata and sat near her. She giggled again and picked me up, stroking me gently. "O-Okay, let's get home, kitty. M-Maybe we can find a name for you too." She started walking towards her home and I smiled, maybe being a cat wouldn't be so bad? But as we left, I saw another cat. A pitch black cat staring at us both. His eyes were red, too. I looked back up towered were I saw the cat, but he was gone. "Strange." I meowed, but ignored it. I'm sure there were plenty of cats around here besides me.

Hinata's P.O.V

I stared down at the cat in my arms. He looked a lot like Naruto-kun. I couldn't just leave the poor thing out in the street, could I? I walked to the Hyuga manor with the little cat in my hands. I decided to sneak through the garden. My parents may not allow me to keep a pet.

As I walked down the stone path of the garden, I ran into Izumi. She was one of the gardeners here, and was a good friend to talk too. She had thick blonde hair and chocolate brown eyes that hid behind glasses. "Oh, Lady Hinata!" She shouted, pulling her sunhat above her eyes to see me better. She grinned, and then looked down at my arms and the grin disappeared. "Lady Hinata, why are you carrying a kitty?" I blushed a bit and stuttered, "P-Please Izumi, d-don't tell my parents! I-I want to keep this c-cat." I hugged him a bit, making the little feline squirm around before relaxing. Izumi watched a bit, then smiled and nodded.

I thanked Izumi and she helped me to my room, making sure the cat wouldn't be seen. "Lady Hinata, what are you going to name him?" She asked me, petting the small cat and making him purr again. "I-I don't know…" I whispered and watched him; the cat looked a lot like Naruto-kun… "Um...how about Hoshi? You know, since he's yellow like a star?" I shook my head 'no' that didn't fit. We sat there thinking for quite some time, and then I heard Izumi asked one last name.

"Erm…Kimochi?"

I looked up at her, then down at my cat. Kimochi? That meant feelings right? I found myself laughing. "I-I like that, Izumi-chan. That sh-shall be his name." Izumi smiled proudly and we started petting the small cat again. He was purring again too. We laughed together and Izumi began to leave. "I have to go back to the gardens, make sure you keep Kimochi safe!" She waved as she said this and ran out. I picked up my cat and placed him on my lap. "You're a good kitty, Kimochi-kun." I whispered in his twitching ear.

Naruto's P.O.V

I sat in Hinata's lap. This purring thing was something I couldn't stop if I wanted too… That Izumi girl named me Kimochi? "Weird name, but I need to get back into a human." I meowed to myself just after Hinata said, "You're a good kitty, Kimochi-kun." I found myself blushing at this, but, why? Luckily I had fur so she couldn't' see me.

"Well, staying with Hinata for now may not be so bad." I convinced myself and lay my head in her lap and slowly fell asleep.

YY100: There that one was longer…and took me two days to write.

Kakashi: that long?

YY100: I had writer's block….

Naruto: Ah, but…the other cat?

YY100: Oh! That's-

Kakashi: *Covers my mouth again* once again, you're going to spoil your own story.

YY100: Sorry Kakashi. Review everyone! Thank-you for reading!
