Chapter Three-

I wasn't in the mood to go out and see a happy couple like naruto and sakura together but I couldn't just stand them up. So after a day of loathing I got myself up showered and threw on a lavender knee length skirt and black camisole threw my hair into a messy pony tail and slipped out of the house.

Getting into the olive garden parking lot I killed the engine in my old 97 Camry and gripped the wheel.

"I should really just go and save myself the embarrassment" I whispered to myself. I shook my head yes and cut the engine back on ready to speed out of there when I took note of a fist tapping on my window and a goofy smile who could only belong to one guy.

"Naruto?"

"Hey Hinata, hurry up get out our tables ready now" he said smiling his goofy grin. I sighed, once again cut the engine, and stepped out of the car.

"you look nice, where's your boyfriend?" naruto asked I felt like I had gotten instant heart burn and shook my head.

"he, um, c-couldn't make it" damn it, why of all times did my shyness have to come back when I lied.

"Oh, funny, sakura got stuck at the hospital, you know nurses; always busy" he said slightly awkward.

"so um the table…." I said softly nudging along the night.

"oh yeah lets go" he said pulling me along inside.

As we walked inside the hostess was doing a last call for one 'Uzumaki party of 4' when naruto embarrassingly informed her it was now only a party of two.

"okay then" the woman said as another nice looking girl escorted us to our table. The waiter rushed over a pleasant smile on his face. "its so nice to see young couples out to a nice dinner" he said partly under his breath. My face had a slight red tint as I said "sorry sir but were more like to friends who both got canceled on" the man nodded and gave a slight chuckle.

"well, what wine can I get for you then beautiful" he said cockily.

"The strongest stuff you have" I said and gave him a 'I will bite' smile.

"oh um and for you sir" he questioned naruto who looked frazzled by the menu.

"wha- oh, whatever shes got, we'll share" he said obviously not paying attention.

"okay and are we ready to order now?" the waiter asked.

"Um, can I have a kids menu? This stuff sounds, uh, to sophisticated for my tastes." Naruto said trying to find another word for gross.

I laughed as the waiter left.

"Not one for Italian I take it?" I mused.

"Nope, I prefer Mexican." He said with his grin. I couldn't help but smile.

"And then I walked in on him banging that little blonde slut!" I yelled slamming my fist down on my other hand. We were sitting on the curb outside of olive garden. We had been kicked out after I began yelling about how much men suck. Naruto kindly offered to drive me home as I was obviously drunk but I didn't want to go home so I kindly threw the keys else where and he, after an hour, had finally given up on finding them.

"Look hinata I can understand being mad at him but just because one guy hurts you doesn't mean we are all bad" naruto said in a very calm and understanding voice.

"but-but" I couldn't hold it in anymore and broke down crying. Naruto hugged me reassuring me that everything was going to be ok. After 20 minutes or so I smiled up at him and grabbed his keys from behind me.

"Time to go home" I whispered and he smile at me.
