DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto. Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto-sama. I'm contented with making fanfictions of Naruto, PERIOD.
AUTHOR'S
NOTES: This is my first NaruHina centered oneshot. Like what
I said before: I specialize or focus more on NejiTen and SasuSaku.
And like the previous chapter, I used comedy on this one, so as not
to damage any characters' personalities… Did I pull it off?
SPECIAL DEDICATIONS: I just want to dedicate this to my "brother", Aikuchi Shikaku and to my "sister-in-law" (BWAHAHAHA!) Eva-oneechan, who is the love of Aikuchi Shikaku.
Most especially to Aikuchi Shikaku: for helping me out in the major turning points of Homebound, which is quite a hit now. I couldn't have done it without you. Also, take this as an apology gift for not helping out much in your fics. But I promise I'll help out in your Hyuuga Naruto and with other fics you would want me to help you out with.
Most especially to Eva-oneechan: I know there's this little feud in between us, just because of something I said way back then that you took seriously. I never really expected that your reaction would turn out that way, so take this as an apology gift. Oh and don't worry, I won't mention the name of my dog-loving onichan anymore when you're around. XD
To
the both of them: This is most especially dedicated to the both
of you; please accept this as a late anniversary gift for the two of
you from me.
PLUG
IN: Please read Aikuchi Shikaku's fics, most especially Balance of Three: Three Doujutsu, for you to see the Naruto storyline told in a totally new
perspective.

Of
Eating Noodles
By:
Gensomaden-Saiyuki
Naruto
x Hinata
It never occurred to her that her students have been bothering her a lot lately. Those three have been teasing her with their previous sensei, who was now well on the way of being a Hokage.
Her students' original sensei was Ebisu, but when he decided that someone could make a better role model, he turned over the handling of those three to the blonde-haired jounin, who then turned over the handling to the Hyuuga heiress.
She was even delighted, as far as she could remember… when the spiky blonde-haired man approached her and asked her if she could take care of his students while he studies and prepares to be a Hokage. She shyly agreed, after all, this was still the same person she so loved, she so admired even in her younger days.
"Hinata-sensei!" Konohamaru called, "Udon, Moegi and I were thinking…"
Hinata was seated on a log, watching his students… err, her students spar with each other.
Konohamaru sweatdropped as he figured out that his sensei was looking at her feet, thinking of something. He called her attention, "Oi, Hinata-sensei!"
Hinata blushed a little and snapped her head a bit to turn to the teenage boy in front of her, "Oh… K-Konohamaru… W-Wh-What is i-it?"
"Were you thinking of something?" Konohamaru teased, "… Or rather, someone?"
"Ehhhh!" Hinata blushed all the more, "W-What m-made you s-say that!"
"Hinata-sensei, you're blushing!" Moegi approached Hinata, Udon tailing her.
Immediately, an automatic typical reflex followed when she blushed: her hands flew to her warmed cheeks.
Hinata giggled nervously, "Ehehe… I'm n-not…"
"Oh well, whatever you say, Hinata-sensei…" Konohamaru removed his forehead protector to wipe off the dust on it using his sleeves, "As I was saying… Udon, Moegi and I thought of something lately."
"Eh?" Hinata tucked a stray strand of her now, long dark hair behind her ear, "And w-what w-were you kids t-th-thinking lately?"
Her three students grinned devilishly as they said in unison: "WE WILL AMBUSH NARUTO-SENSEI!"
"EHHHHH!" Hinata suddenly stood up, a sweat trickling from her forehead, down to the tip of her chin.
Konohamaru scratched the back of his head after he tied his forehead protector back in place as he looked at his female jounin master, "What?"
"What d-do you m-mean 'what'!" the older woman reasoned, "N-Naruto-kun i-is busy n-nowadays! R-Remember! H-He is t-the Rokudaime soon! S-So he's b-busy preparing!"
A moment of silence deafened their ears. Until…
"Not in his office, Hinata-sensei!" Konohamaru pointed to the clearing, the exit of their training grounds, "THERE!"
"Huh? Where?" Hinata looked at the direction where he was pointing.
Moegi and Udon pointed to the direction where Konohamaru had been pointing, "THERE!"
Hinata took a few steps to see where they were pointing and saw the oh-so familiar and dear place to Naruto. Hmm… Maybe when he indeed becomes Hokage, he might make that place a must-go-to tourist spot. Maybe he'll build a shrine to honor it, since it seemed like the place was already sacred to him.
You still don't know what place that is?
Oh well, whatever…
"THE ICHIRAKU RAMEN STAND!" the trio replied.
Oh boy. She's going to take part in the perfect recipe for disaster now? Hmm… What would Naruto do anyway if his students really loved involving other people into trouble?
That's right; he'll take part in the troublemaking! HAH! Not even Spiderman or Superman can beat out the likes of his! Oh hell, Satan, Lucifer, Apocalypse, Magneto, The Green Goblin, The Joker, The Penguin, Judas Iscariot, Lex Luthor, Brainiac, Dr. Oc, Achilles, Agamemnon, Menelaus, Poseidon, Hades, Ares, Eris, Hera, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, Ferdinand Marcos, HECK, ALL THE VILLAINS IN THIS WORLD WOULD BE JEALOUS OF HOW GREAT HE CAN MAKE TROUBLES! HIS TROUBLEMAKING MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND! HAH! BEAT THAT FEAT, ZEUS!
Err… Anyway, back to the topic…
So what should she do? Should she take part in what they want to do? To make the world's greatest troublemaker a humiliation, only to be taken down by three kids and a shy woman, not by the likes of the great Apollo, or his twin sister Artemis, or even Athena? Man, the gods must be enjoying the troubles he makes; they won't bother him at all. For once, the gods must be crazy.
Should his troubles backfire on him now?
"Neh, neh! Hinata-sensei!" Konohamaru pleaded, "Let's ambush him, PLEASE!"
Hinata sweatdropped.
She surely wasn't one of a troublemaker. Her simplicity can tell you that she can harm no one, unless in battle. The Hyuuga heiress is filled with dignity and honor. But why not make a little bit of trouble? It's not going to hurt, right?
Ding dong! Right!
"Fine, but this will be the first and last, okay?" Hinata leaned a bit and whispered to her students, "Okay, so what's the plan?"
The trio was delighted and so they talked.
A few minutes later…
"MORE BEEF RAMEN PLEASE!" Naruto told the father-and-daughter team running the place of Ichiraku.
"My, my, Naruto!" Ayame sweatdropped as she saw the huge pile of bowls beside him, "How many days have you not eaten?"
Naruto have noodles in his mouth when he replied, "Uhm… I wash beeshee thle rasht fyoo thays cho… hmm… mayvee avout… hmm… thix thays?" (Ramen Language Global Translator Says: Uhm… I was busy the last few days so, hmm… maybe about… hmm… six days?)
Ayame may have not understood what he said but she caught the last two words: 6 days.
"Training, perhaps?" she asked.
He nodded as he sipped the soup of the ramen, piling the bowl up the tower of bowls.
"MORE PLEASE!" Naruto pleaded.
"Ayame, we don't have any more bowls. Go wash them." Ayame's father, Teuchi, said as he cooked more ramen.
Ayame reached for the wobbling tower of bowls as she tiptoed across the area, trying to make sure the tower won't fall. She then dropped the bowls into the prepared soapy bath in the deep sink, creating a splash that made her dripping wet.
"Welcome!" Teuchi greeted the customer seated right next to Naruto.
"Eh? Hinata-chan?" Naruto smiled, "Hungry?"
Hinata twiddled her fingers and said, "Huh? Uh… Uhm… Hmm… Err… Y-yes."
"What would it be, Miss?" Teuchi asked.
"M-Miso Ramen, p-please." Hinata replied.
"How are the kids doing?" Naruto asked with a grin from ear to ear, "I hope they're not causing you any trouble."
"They are s-such persistent t-troublemakers, N-Naruto-kun." Hinata sweatdropped for a while.
"Oh, of c-course n-not, Naruto-kun," the pale-eyed woman smiled, "in fact, th-they're very g-good k-kids. They're p-pretty good in fighting t-too."
"Well, that's good news!" Naruto then pointed up his chopsticks, trying to make a point, "Because if I heard they're causing you much trouble, I'll teach them a lesson… especially when I officially become a Hokage. I told them to lose their troublemaker attitudes because their new sensei is a good friend of mine and is a girl, so they better be polite. And I think it was Moegi-chan who related more to that, because she's a girl."
She blushed when he said she was a good friend of his.
"Ayame, are you done yet?" Teuchi asked.
"Almost! I'm rinsing the bowls now!" Ayame replied.
"Neh, neh!" Naruto decided to chat with Hinata while waiting for his next bowl of ramen, "You know, Tsunade-baachan is a real snob! I was asking her what do when you try to talk your way out of a fight so there will be no more bloodshed and then she didn't answer me and threw a thick book at my face! And then…"
While Naruto was telling a story to Hinata, in the bushes…
"Konohamaru, in position." Konohamaru said through his walky talky.
"Moegi in position!"
"Udon, in position." And then Udon sneezed.
"SHH!" Moegi and Konohamaru said in unison.
"Oops, sorry." Udon replied.
"Are you sure our plan is going to work, Konohamaru?" Moegi asked.
"It should be perfect!" Konohamaru smiled proudly, "Look at them! Hinata-sensei and Naruto-sensei are enjoying each other's company! There's no way our plan can go wrong! By the way, Udon, is the main weapon ready?"
"Oh, you mean the rope with a stone on each end?" said Udon.
"Keep quiet! This thing is a Class-S mission!" Konohamaru reminded.
"REALLY?" Moegi said in a louder whisper, "BUT SINCE-"
"SHH!" Konohamaru went to were Moegi was hiding, making the bushes rustle and placed his hand over her mouth.
Naruto turned around and said, "I heard the bushes rustling."
"Oh no!" Hinata remembered that her students were hiding behind the bushes.
"U-Uhm… It m-must be some c-cat, Naruto-kun…" Hinata commented as Naruto just decided to stay put on his seat, "You were s-saying?"
"Oh yeah, where was I?" Naruto tipped his chin, "And then Sakura-chan told me to go to the elder's office because I need to do some attendance…"
Konohamaru sighed and removed his hold from Moegi, "If Hinata-sensei didn't do that, then we could've blown our cover, Moegi!"
"Sorry." Moegi blushed, "As I was saying, since when did this plan become a Class-S mission? I mean, the Hokage-sama didn't tell us to do this, did she?"
Konohamaru smiled proudly, "I declare it a Class-S mission!"
Udon and Moegi sweatdropped.
"Once they receive their bowls of ramen, when they take their chopsticks, Udon, you throw the rope. Then, we'll barrage the fantastic weapons we got from that Jokers' Guild Store. They were a bargain, so why not use them, right?" Konohamaru pointed out, "Moegi, the waterguns, the paintballs, the sacks of flour, the Polaroid camera and the baskets of flower petals?"
"Waterguns – check. Paintballs – check. Sacks of flour – check. Polaroid camera – check. Baskets of flower petals – nice and fresh from the Yamanaka Flower Shop." Moegi replied.
"Hey, are those flowers removed of their pollen?" Udon asked, "I'm allergic to flowers with pollen."
"Hey, hey!" Konohamaru alerted, "The old guy is putting their ramens in their bowls! Get ready!"
"Udon, ready." Udon said as he grasped the rope, ready for action.
"Moegi, ready."
"Konohamaru, ready." Konohamaru replied, "Okay, first, we use the watergun. Then, we pour the sacks of flour. Then we'll barrage the paintballs. We'll celebrate by throwing the flower petals as confetti and then use the Polaroid camera to capture the moment!"
They all readied themselves when they saw Teuchi turning around, holding the two bowls of ramen.
"1…" Konohamaru counted off, "2…"
Teuchi placed the bowls in front of Naruto and Hinata. They both got their chopsticks and…
"3!"
Hinata tried to let out a shriek when she felt herself being tied with Naruto with a rope thrown out of nowhere. They were both tied waist to waist, immobile because of the firm put of the rope, secured by the two stones, automatically intertwining to make a quick lock.
But that wasn't the only thing locked…
Naruto and Hinata were blushing all hues of red known to mankind as their lips were firmly locked together. They pulled from the kiss and muttered shyly, "S-Sorry…"
"Ready! Aim! Fire!" Konohamaru counted off as he and his teammates fired a stream of water towards Naruto and Hinata who were trying to free themselves.
"Moegi, flour, now!" Konohamaru commanded as he emptied the huge watergun.
Moegi dropped her watergun and reached for two bags of flour and threw them at Naruto and Hinata.
Now, Naruto and Hinata are sticky with water and flour.
"Udon, paintballs, now!" Konohamaru commanded.
Immediately, Udon threw various colors of paintballs: red, blue, yellow, green, violet and orange.
"Moegi and Udon, flower petals, GO!" Konohamaru instructed as he dropped his watergun and reached for the Polaroid camera.
Moegi and Udon stood at either side of the helpless couple and showered flower petals around the two.
"Smile!" Konohamaru said as he took a picture of the masterpiece he and his teammates made.
The Polaroid picture came out and he took it, shaking it off.
"That wasn't so bad after all, neh, Hinata-sensei?" Konohamaru told her with a big grin.
"B-But-" Hinata was cut off by Naruto.
"EHHH! YOU WERE WITH THEM DOING THIS TO US?" Naruto exclaimed at Hinata.
"W-Well, it was o-only supposed to b-be you wh-who was supposed to be p-pranked! I didn't know I w-was also included!" Hinata reasoned.
Konohamaru looked at the pitiful candid picture of Naruto and Hinata.
"Neh, neh, Naruto-sensei, didn't you tell us that you want to get tied with Hinata-sensei?" Konohamaru teased, "You would allow yourself to be dumped with freezing water, even dive into a pool of flour and make yourself look like a clown by putting on all colors at the same time, just to rain down flowers for her?"
"T-Tied w-with m-me?" Hinata asked, "Y-You mean… M-M-M-Marry me?"
"Well, I sure did wish I can do that one day." Naruto explained but then he widened his eyes when he realized what he just said, "ERR… NOTHING!"
Hinata, amidst the splashes of color on her face, still blushed a hot pink on her cheeks after Naruto's reply.
And then Naruto turned to his 'disciples', "AND YOU DIDN'T GET THE POINT OF WHAT I SAID! YOU TOOK IT LITERALLY!"
"Yeah, so what difference does it make?" Konohamaru showed the candid picture, "At least for once we granted one wish for you before you become a Hokage! And you get to kiss Hinata-sensei!"
"WHY YOU LITTLE!" Naruto amazingly got out of the ropes and started chasing away Konohamaru, Udon and Moegi, who were now running at full speed.
"Uhm, Miso Ramen?" Ayame offered.
"How a-about a t-towel, please?" Hinata asked, as she got out of the ropes, too.
"Oh no, we don't have towel ramens here." Ayame replied.
The Hyuuga heiress just sweatdropped, "What w-would Otou-san tell m-me if I enter th-the compound l-looking like this?"
A familiar picture flew at her feet. She bent down and picked it up and giggled at the candid picture.
… Well,
troubles can make the world go round, at least for Naruto and Hinata,
the world's most wonderful troublemakers!

If you love someone, then you should always believe in that person. If he goes, then you should never lose hope that one day, he'll come back for you. But not for Haruno Sakura, who had given up hoping for Uchiha Sasuke's return… only to prove that she was wrong for believing that Uchiha Sasuke would never come back, because when he did, he did it for her, but then again, he questions her faith.
