umbrella's note: So I guess A will be. Two quick things though. 1-If you have an account, vote using that, as I can't know if you're just voting anonymously to get the option you wanted picked. In this case I'll allow it, as we would have a tie if I didn't. 2-I'll update this story when I feel like it. Don't think I'm making time so that an option I want gets more votes or something, that's not the case. I can update today, or tomorrow, or in a week from now, I'm unreadable. We'll now let's get to the story shall we?


"I...I have to tell you something Hinata" Naruto said in a stern voice.

"Yes, what is it Naruto-kun?" She asked. Deep inside she knew, the problem was she didn't want to know.

"I..In these three years..What happened was..." Naruto was very flustered, he had never been particularly good with words and now he honestly didn't know how to begin.

Hinata dreading what she thought he was going to say, interrupted him. "I love you Naruto-kun. I never stopped loving you, not once. And now that you're here, you don't know how happy that makes me, when we can be together just like before. I've waited for you, you see. Just like we promised."

Bang! It was as though a bullet had gone through his heart. This made his duty only more complicated and painful. But he had to do it, there was no turning back. She deserved to know the truth, the whole story.

"Hinata I..."

"Don't..Don't you love me too?"

Silence...

He looked into her eyes. Tears swelling there. "Am I ugly? Do you not find me attractive anymore?"

"No, it's not that!" He said quickly. "I think you're beautiful, I honestly do." And he did, he wasn't lying in the slightest when he pronounced these words.

"But...No, I don't love you anymore. I..I've found someone whom I care for and love deeply."

He looked at her. She was expressionless, although tears continued to swell in her eyes.

"Her name is Saori and..."

"Oh. That's right. I..I should have known. Yes o-of course. Th-three years is a long time, you've-you've probably had lots of girlfriends and have settled now with one." She said in a clearly hurt voice.

Her stuttering had returned. It had not shown it's ugly face for years. Not once, and now it returned. Three years ago, when she and Naruto got together she was miraculously cured of it, and now it had returned.

Naruto noticed this "Why is she stuttering, could it be because of...me? Because of this?" This only made him feel worse.

I'm so-sorry for bothe-the-thering you Naruto-kun, you must be quite b-busy. Tears now dripping freely from her eyes. Her face a bit red from the crying. And her eyes, oh her beautiful eyes, how hurt and betrayed they looked.

Truth is, Hinata had been asked for dates many times, by many boys, but she had always turned them down. Always waiting for him. Always faithful for him, fo her love, for Naruto.

To be fair, Naruto was a man. He had needs women didn't even dream of. But he HAD waited for her. He HAD kept his feelings for her, at least at the beginning. "Three years is a fucking long time. Can I really be blamed?" He asked himself. "Shit, I thought she would have a boyfriend too by this time..." But that wasn't true. He was lying to himself to make himself feel better, the result: he felt worse. He knew Hinata, knew she probably-no, not probably-she definitively still loved him and was waiting for him.

"This is difficult for me Hinata, but it's been really long...We can still stay frien"- She interrupted him. "I-I-I go-gotta go." Her stuttering worse than ever, she went away running. Running and crying.

She didn't want to be friends. She didn't want anything that wasn't him being with her. Anything else, would hurt her. She didn't want to be hurt. But how hurt she was, and things didn't look as though they were going to get better.

"Hinata! Don't be like that, don't-" But he stopped himself. "Don't be like what?" He asked himself. "Why don't you go fuck yourself for making her suffer like this?" Naruto told himself.

But all in all, Naruto felt he had acted accordingly. He had been honest. What else was he supposed to do? Lie to her, about Saori? That wasn't fair to her, or to Saori. Buy time? No, no. Things like this are better dealt with quickly. He had had no other choice. He didn't love her. "I don't love her anymore" He told himself. Although a tiny, thought started to grow in his brain. Seeing her after all this time had been difficult. She was more beautiful than he could have ever imagined. He remembered when they kissed for the first time. Confessed their love. Lost their virginity with each other.

"Ahhh" This is just confusing me more. "I have Saori now, I'm sure with time she will understand. Maybe."

She saw her back becaoming smaller, and he couldn't not feel regret at making her cry, even if it was for the best.

What do I do?

A) Let her be. Talking to her now will only hurt her more, look for her later, when she's calmed down.

B) Let her be. She clearly doesn't want to talk, don't look for her if she doesn't come looking for you. Forgetting each other is probably for the best.

C) Are you mad? Go and talk to her now! You can't let her crying like this.
