Naruto the anime and manga belongs to Kishimoto

(If it didn't, let's say the world will be on its heels)


"Okay everybody! Listen up! Naruto and Hinata are going on a date and we got to make sure those two don't screw it up!"

"Duh Forehead! We all know that!

After seeing Naruto and Hinata together, the rest of the Rookie 12 had a meeting to insure that the two have a good time and stay together. Sakura had taken charge with Ino as her main assistant. The main idea was to go out together as a large group and see how they react to each other. If things went well, they could see the two kiss again!

That's what they say but we all know that they just want Naruto to be happy and if…. Hey Hinata likes Naruto! So this would be a lot better than just setting Naruto on some blind date. (Though they had considered it just in case to get one or the other jealous enough to stir some emotions)

What really made them surprised is that when Kiba came back, he wasn't surprised at all! The group was angry that Kiba had set them up but when they found out that the perfume was made to only last 10 hours they figured out that Naruto had kissed Hinata of his own will. (Perfume was given to Hinata after early morning training: 10 o'clock-6 o'clock)

"Alright is everyone ready! Let's go get Naruto and Hinata and head to the mall!" (Authoress powers activate)

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXBREAK TIME (GO POTTY GO) OKAY BACKXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kohona Mall- Where awkward and conniving teens gather for shopping, dates, and hanging out.

"OI, Naruto! Hinata! Over here!" yelling Kiba.

The whole group was finally here and it was time to play cupid. The group voted (unfairly) to see a movie, go eat, and than look around in stores or go in the arcade.

Strategy 1: Scare them into romance

The movie they decided to see was The Ring. Naruto immediately tried to leave but the group argued that since it was a special after release one-time showing they had to go see it. So reluctantly, Naruto went into the movie theater muttering Buddhists prayers under his breath. Hinata seeing this sat down next to Naruto and nervously grinned.

"Naruto, will you let me hold your hand when I get scared?"

"Um...yeah ok" Sigh "Hinata really does care about me, I mean why else would she hold my hand when she herself loves horror movies"

So Naruto was able to survive the movie because of Hinata and her calming presence. Though he didn't know what had happened, Naruto barely remembered the movie anyway and he was happy with that. The rest of the group would also like to point out that Hinata had knocked him out before every single time a super scary scene. (Awww)

Strategy 2: Fun with Ice Cream

After the movie, the group went out to the food court for some grub. After all individuals decided there Panda Express and Chipotle (Did I spell that right?) they all ate and when finished, got some ice cream and ate it outside. Naruto and Hinata had both ordered vanilla ice cream with Naruto having a cup and Hinata having a cone.

Everyone was having a good time and enjoying the ice cream that they got. Though the group (and I) had planned on playing a tactic here they had no clue about how to go about it. Course when they were all huddle up they missed the cute little scene that went on. While walking around and talking, the ice cream on Hinata's cone fell off and plopped right on the ground. Seeing this, Naruto took half of the ice cream he still had and filled Hinata's cone with it. Blushing, he gave it back to an equally blushing Hinata who quietly thanked him and both blushed harder when Hinata started eating the ice cream.

Strategy 3: Let's try looking Hot!

Now with ice cream done and gone it was time to hit the shops! The girls dragged Naruto into a store yelling about getting him clothes that were not orange. No one was able to see what they gave Naruto, so they waited outside the changing rooms to see the end result. Hinata was excited that she was helping Naruto with his clothes and made sure to get shirts and pants that would look good on him, the other girls had different ideas. When Naruto came out with an outfit on pretty much all the females got nosebleeds( Cept for Ino, Sakura, and Tenten they turned around just in time).

Naruto was wearing a black open chest shirt that showed off his well shaped abs, the pants he was wearing were slightly tight jeans with a flame on the bottom of the left leg. Also note that Naruto is not wearing his headband so his spikey hair is making him look extremly sexy right now(sex god alert, Sasuke is no longer needed!).

"Don't tell me I look that bad!"

"N-Naruto it's not that you look bad, its just...you look hot" OMG did I just make Hinata say that?!

Cue the blushing once more, and it is now completely obvious to the Rookie 12.

Why hadn't they hooked the two up sooner?
