Ray of Light ch1

She continued to look in shock and in awe of this one last but of sunshine that had forgotten to leave with the clouds... and even with that, it decided to shine on her. She was in a daze of sheer... disbelief... Even though her tears were still streaming down, her eyes were still red from crying, and even though she was shivering and soaked to the bone... she felt somehow... better...?

"Hinata!" he yelled and shook her shoulders to make sure that she was alright (which she wasn't), and did this all in a furry of confusion, sadness, and other emotions he himself didn't even know, to help his dear friend, and precious person.

She snapped out of her daze and looked into his bright, sapphire eyes... and for a single moment, those same eyes reminded her of the sky long since covered by clouds... After that moment had passed, her emotions bubbled up to the surface again and she dove her head into his chest and wept loudly in pain, sorrow and sadly understanding why. As she buried her head into him, he was shocked and he didn't know what to do- he only knew what his instinct and his heart told him to do. So he wrapped his large, muscular, and yet strangely comforting arms around her tiny frame in a warm embrace.. That little voice had told him to console her... to embrace her... to... do everything in his power to make sure he could see that gentle smile of hers again.

This only made her burry her head deeper into him, and to sob louder... He would lightly pet her head, bringing her soaking wet, mud filled and messed up tresses back into place.

"Hinata... what's wrong... Tell me... please... I know I can help!" he would say, trying to keep his normal cheery tone, hoping that maybe his emotions would rub off on her.

She looked up at him slightly, and unlike every other girl her age, she didn't have gigantic black circles under her eyes, or lines going down her face. Her face was just enflamed and soaking wet with her tears, and the cold rain. "N-Naruto... I-I..." she suddenly shivered in his arms, and that was when he realized that she wasn't in her normal, baggy lavender jacket... but a small lavender t-shirt that was now slightly darker as it was soaking wet and you could see her white... Naruto mentally slapped himself as his inner had a nosebleed.

He took off his bright orange and black jacket and gently placed it on her tiny shoulders, and it looked like it had almost swallowed her whole.

She freaked. "N-N-N-N-Naruto! P-Please, t-take y-y-our j-jacket back! Y-Y-you n-need it!" she tried handing it back to him, but he lightly pushed it back.

"No, you need it now Hinata... why don't you come back to my apartment and maybe you could dry off, then we could talk... and maybe I could get you some tea... or ramen..!" he ended his sentence with his trademark grin at the thought of ramen.

She lightly hugged him and nodded. "Th-th-thank you... you don't know what this m-m-means to me..." She said, looking toward the ground, but what little of her face that you could see, was telling you she was smiling.

A.N. K! Hope you liked it! I already know that there are way too many hurt/comfort NaruHina fics where Naruto takes Hinata in... But I just had to do this one! Though I have no idea where it is going to go...
