Chapter 2 – The Kiss
Shikamaru was lying on his back facing the blue sky, the clouds looks like pineapples again*, Shikamaru sighed 'I have to ask Temari out, how troublesome,' As Shikamaru was thinking about Temari, he could hear Neji.
'Hurry up Hinata, if he actually likes you, he wouldn't care about your stupid hair.' Neji said to Hinata.
'Nejjjjjjjiiiii, god, don't you realise that Hinata can use Byakugan as well? She can see for herself, now I'm not sure about you guys but girls want to look their best in front of their crush okay? Is she even listening to you?' Ten-ten rolled her eyes, stating the obvious.
'Girls are so troublesome' Shikamaru said still lying down and yes, still thinking about Temari.
Naruto can see a girl with dark purplish-blue hair and pearly eyes waiting anxiously at the doors of Konoha.
'Hinataaa!!' shouted Naruto and waved, he was now running normally towards his soon-to-be-girlfriend. Left foot, right, left, right… OOPH and Naruto was flying through the air after being tripped by a stone (tip for boys; when you run towards a girl, also focus on the ground, do not put all the focus on the girl or else it might be a disaster like something that is going to happen to Naruto).
'How come my lips are touching something so…soft?' thought Naruto as he struggled to get up, he opened his eyes slowly and – 'EEHHH?! SHIKAMARU?!!! But it was too late, Naruto found his own lips locked with Shikamaru's instead of Hinata's.
'GET OFF ME NARUTO!' shouted Shikamaru, now the two boys were in the centre of attention, they were soon surrounded by people who were whispering, 'Naruto is gay with Shikamaru? How come I don't know? When did this happen? Are they dating? OMG OMG OMG!' The two people who weren't whispering were running off crying instead…
* * *
'I can't believe it! Is this what Naruto came back for? To tell me he is GAY with Shikamaru?' Hinata was confused, upset, miserable, upset, angry, upset, stunned and…upset. She just couldn't believe that Naruto, her first crush, kissed Shikamaru Nara. On the lips. In front of her. Whilst on the other side, 'I can't believe it! Is this what Naruto came back for? To tell me he is GAY with Shikamaru?I was going to tell that pineapple how much I adored him…humph' Temari was doing the same thing except she couldn't believe that Shikamaru locked lips with Naruto.
'Ew, I never knew Shikamaru had such bad taste, no offence to Hinata, he didn't even like girls, he didn't even like...me' thought Temari out loud, which isn't good because as soon as she said 'he didn't even like…me' Gaara came in.
Gaara look weary and black-eyed as usual, his red hair flopped to one side and arms crossed, and his lips curled upwards into a smile, 'rejected eh?'
'Shut up, knock before you come in, and go away'
Gaara ignored her
'I said GO AWAY!' Temari's eyes were red from cry and sobbing
'You realise that your boyfriend isn't gay?'
'I don't have a boyfriend, okay?? Now LEAVE ME ALONE!'
'Psh, whatever, I'd better get out before she uses that fan of hers' thought Gaara power-walking out of Temari's room which has a depressed atmosphere at the moment.
* * *
'Hinata! Hinata Hinata Hinataaa! Stop! Stop! Listen to me, it was a misunderstanding, stone, trip, Shikamaru, I was too busy looking at you. Hinata stopped and repeated,' I was too busy looking at you?' she turned around and saw the blonde crazy boy still running after her trying to catch her attention and it finally worked.
'Yes, yes, I wasn't looking and I tripped on a stone and landed on Shikamaru and accidentally kissed him, you see?'
'No I don't see how you can accidentally trip and accidentally kissed someone ON THE LIPS and accidentally…accidentally and accidentally kiss that person IN FRONT OF YOUR GIRLFRIEND' Hinata shouted in response and ran away in anger.
'G-girlfriend?' Naruto gawped at her from the distance, 'that means she really thinks of me as a boyfriend? Wow' and he wondered off in a daze 'girlfriend? Girlfriend. Yes, I want Hinata Hyuuga to be my boy – I mean girlfriend.'
* * *
'Huff, why do all my kissing experiences all have to include boys' I bet you know who said that.
* * *
'Now not only girls are troublesome, boys are too, wait then what am I? A boy-girl?' The scene of the misunderstanding gay kiss kept on replaying in Shikamaru's head. All day long he wondered how he should tell Temari that he is not gay.
* * *
Naruto was eating ramen as usual but instead he didn't breathe in the wonderful smell of Ichiraku ramen, he wanted to smell Hinata's scent. He didn't want to look at the organised toppings on his Ichiraku ramen, he wanted to see Hinata's smile again.
'Not a very good appetite I see' said Ayame looking at Naruto's expression with a little smirk on her face.
'Yeah'
The sun was shining bright over Konoha and Shikamaru came into the little restaurant, 'I knew I would find you here'
'What gives?' Naruto now doesn't want to eat at all, since fear had suddenly came to his brain
'You didn't do it on purpose did you' Shikamaru's lips bent upwards, 'looks like someone would rather look at a girl then at the ground.'
Naruto let his shoulders drop, he felt like if all the weight has been taken off his shoulders, 'at least someone knows.'
'Yeah, but Shikamaru's not the only one who knows,' brown floppy hair popped up next to him followed by a few barks.
'Kiba! You know that I'm not gay with Shikamaru as well?'
'Naruto! Don't put the word 'gay' with my name together okay?!'
'Naruto!!!!!!' Naruto turned around and saw a girl with pink hair running towards him.
'Eh? Sakura-chan'
Sakura panted breathlessly as she reach Naruto, 'H-hinata-chan is… in hospital…sh-she is calling out your n-name while sh-she's sleeping hurry'
'Eh?'
* * *
Hinata's dark blue hair flopped over her eyes, her pearly eyes met another pair and another and another but she could only fix her eyes on one pair. Hinata's eyes were locked with Naruto's, she felt embarrassed and shy after remembering that she just confessed but then felt sorry for accusing him to be… well, gay.
'Daijabou?' Naruto's blonde hair swayed from side to side because of the breeze that sneaked in from the window.
'Yeah,' Hinata was now too shy to look into his eyes.
'H-hinata, when I came ba-'
'Yeah, I know, Shikamaru told me, I-I'm sorry Naruto-kun'
'Really?'
'Yeah' Hinata's eyes met Naruto's but then she looked away. 'I really want him to ask me out!' Hinata was full on blushing, 'but he probably doesn't even like me'
'Hinata,' Naruto broke her thoughts, 'do you want to…like…eat ramen together? Or maybe train or something…um…like…hang out?' but before he finished, Hinata fainted.
