Chapter 3: Double Date?

'I wonder how long we'll be able to keep this up…'

"Hinata, are you still listening to us?" Sakura questioned, waving a hand in front of her face to get her attention.

"Probably thinking about Naruto again, huh?" Ino mused from beside her, smirking at Hinata's telling blush.

It had been a few weeks now that she and Naruto had been carrying on their illicit affair with only their shared friends and her sister knowing about it. While she trusted that her friends wouldn't go off to spread said secret, she still felt slightly wary of the different people she often saw around the club. There were many prominent citizens that apparently liked to stop by with friends and families who probably had no idea of the things they did inside the club's walls.

"I'm sorry you guys, what were we talking about again?" Hinata murmured, sitting up properly to focus on them.

Ino waved off her apology, smiling as she twirled her fork in her hand. "We were asking you what you saw upstairs in the VIP section of Club 81."

Sakura leaned in close to hear her, forest green eyes sparkling with interest. "Is it true what people have said about it?! Do they really have all those fancy restaurants and bars?"

Ino scoffed, pushing her aside slightly. "Oh, who cares about all of that crap?! Hinata, what were the rooms like? I'm sure you and Naruto spent all night trying out every option available."

'I'm beginning to regret having told them I even went up there.' Hinata considered, feeling her face beginning to redden even further under their growing questions while they began to argue over what to ask her next.

Hinata glanced over to her side to see what Tenten had to say in all of this. She had been oddly quiet since the lunch had started, having only spoken to really order her meal off the menu.

'Now that I think about it, Tenten spends a lot of time with Neji either training or hanging out. I don't think she would tell him about what I've been doing with Naruto since she could have already done so a long time ago, but Neji may eventually catch on and ask her more questions about it…' Hinata realized.

Tenten soon caught on to Hinata's staring, glancing up from her salad curiously. "Is something the matter?"

Hinata blinked before quickly shaking her head and looking back down at her own meal. This was silly; she was only going to make herself nervous if she came up with random assumptions of what if situations.

"If you were worried about Neji asking me anything regarding you and Naruto, don't worry; he hasn't and anyways, it really isn't any of his business if he does." Tenten spoke up.

Hinata peered back up her, smiling when she saw her sincere grin. "Thank you Tenten."

Tenten nodded her head, finishing her bite of salad before continuing on. "It's fine, but to continue where Sakura and Ino left off…what exactly did you see upstairs?"

-oOo-

"Can we meet for lunch today around 12 or 1? I want…no, I really need to talk to you! –Hanabi

Hinata read over the text message once more, unsure if she should simply call her back instead to find out what was so urgent. She had just seen Hanabi a few days ago when she came to the compound and she hadn't given her any inclination that something was troubling her.

Nonetheless, she had the free time and it was a nice enough day to get out of her apartment. The clouds drifting by along with the calm breeze provided some relief from the afternoon heat, even if she could feel her summer dress beginning to stickily cling to her.

Hinata quietly fanned herself as she waited patiently under the shade of the usual tree she and Hanabi liked to meet at in Konoha's central park, sitting up when she finally saw her approach.

"You look uncomfortable." Hanabi remarked, plopping down into the grass beside her. Hinata frowned, following her line of sight back towards her dress. Sweat had started to dampen her clothes in all of the wrong areas.

Hinata blushed at her amused grin, wrapping her arms around herself. "C-Can we go back to my place or at least someplace cooler?"

"Of course, we need to go somewhere where nobody will hear or see us anyways." Hanabi answered back, helping Hinata up to head back to her place.

A few minutes later, the sisters were back in her air conditioned kitchen. Hinata calmly took a sip from her glass of water before speaking up. "So, what's this all about?"

Hanabi set her own glass down, lavender eyes mirroring her own observing her curiously. "It's not anything dangerous. It's just something that's been happening for a while that I knew I should share with you that I…I have a boyfriend!"

Hinata giggled at her excitement. Memories of her own familiar giddiness coming back to her from when she had first started dating Naruto and moved beyond that.

"You must really like this guy for you to want to meet up in person to tell me. "How did you run into this guy? I assume you had mutual friends or a shared class together, right?" Hinata guessed.

The smile stifled for a moment on Hanabi's face and Hinata froze up at her next words. "…I met him at Club 81."

Hinata felt as if her throat had twisted up at such a simple statement, biting her lip as a silent tension swiftly overtook them.

"Hanabi… are you joking with me?" Hinata eventually choked out, taking a sip once more from her drink to prevent her voice from falling apart.

Hanabi shook her head, squirming in her seat uneasily at her stare. "I know what you're thinking, but he's not a bad guy! We've been talking to each other for a couple of weeks now and I think-"

"Hold on, how old is this guy? You're not even allowed in Club 81 considering you're still a minor and have been sneaking in somehow this whole time; have you been lying to him about your real age?!" Hinata cut in.

"No, it's not even that big of an age difference! He's the same age as you and in fact, he told me he goes to the University of Konoha as well." Hanabi sharply replied.

Hinata rubbed her forehead, quietly taking in all that she had just learned. She knew her sister craved to be less restricted by the family just like she did and have more freedom, but still…

"I was hoping that since you're harboring your own secret relationship as well that you of all people would understand where I'm coming from. I was also wondering if we could all possibly meet up at Club 81 to get to know each other this Friday. Like a double date?" Hanabi continued on, forming an expectant smile.

Hinata's first instinct was to immediately say no, disregarding her sister's eagerness to describe this man's features, only catching that he had alluring silver eyes with matching hair.

"Well, I really only ever go to that club with Naruto, but I suppose if it's only for one night…" Hinata trailed off. 'And I really should get an idea of what this guy is doing with my sister. He could only want sex or money out of her.'

Hanabi's eyes widened, hopping out of her seat to give her a hug. "Oh, thank you! I can't wait for you to meet him!"

"Speaking of which, what is this man's name anyways?" Hinata questioned, pulling back from her sister to meet her eyes again.

"Toneri."

-oOo-

'Huh? Where is that knocking noise coming from!' Naruto thought, sitting up from his bed in alarm as the pounding sound came again.

Naruto lazily rubbed his eyes as they adjusted back to his room; slowly recognizing the clatter was coming from his front door. Finding the nearest shirt on the floor, Naruto hastily pulled it on and waded through his scattered trash back towards the entrance.

'I hope it's not the landlady bugging me again. I already paid my rent for this month in advance.' Naruto mused irritably, checking through the peephole to see Hinata.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Reversing the situation so now you come and visit me at night?!" Naruto asked, cheerful demeanor coming back as he let her in.

Hinata smiled back, blushing as she noticed his state of dress. While Naruto had at least taken the time to put on one of his usual plain white shirts, he had in the process neglected the lower half of his body. Hinata quickly looked away before he caught her gazing and tried to clear her thoughts.

"U-Um, there's something that came up with us meeting at the club this Friday that I wanted to tell you about in person." Hinata stammered. 'I could've just told him this over the phone perhaps; I probably woke him up making him believe this was some kind of emergency.'

Naruto cocked his head in confusion, watching as Hinata began to look at everywhere but him. "Okay, that's fine; but how come you can't say that directly to me?"

Hinata shuffled at her feet, staring at different piles of clothes until Naruto gently lifted her face for their eyes to meet. "You forgot to put clothes on to your err…lower half."

Naruto blinked, peering down at his black boxers before grinning cheekily. "Oh, sorry about that though it's not like I was naked…unless you want me to be!"

Hinata rapidly shook her head, sighing when Naruto poked her flushed cheeks in a teasing manner before leaving to fully get dressed. She moved to take a seat on his couch, putting a half-eaten bowl of noodles into the trash before it tipped and spilled all over.

"Naruto, I could help you in cleaning up some of this clutter if you ever need it." Hinata called out to him.

"Nah, that's okay! I just normally use the weekends to clean up all my trash." Naruto explained, wrapping an arm around her as he returned and took a seat beside her.

Naruto turned on his TV to find a channel that would interest them both, groaning when he only went through a stream of various commercials. Naruto eventually left it on the news and tossed the remote back onto the table. "So, this must be important or something really bugging you for you to come to my place instead of me to yours at this time of day, huh?"

Hinata nodded her head, turning to face him fully. "Earlier today I had been talking to my sister Hanabi. She told me she's apparently been seeing this man she met at the club."

"Isn't your sister only sixteen though?" Naruto questioned.

"Yes, but she's been acting out a bit more lately and I think she's used fake IDs or snuck in somehow. I'm worried about her change in attitude and what this guy wants with her seeing as she said he's older than her. Long story short, I told her it would be okay if we went on one double date together for me to meet him." Hinata explained.

Naruto pouted, tugging her closer into his arms. "That club is supposed to be used for our alone time together though!"

Hinata laughed lightly at that, rubbing his hands soothingly. "I promise this is will only be a one-time thing."

Naruto hummed, shifting a hand underneath her shirt, gliding fingers towards the clasp of her bra. "Alright, I doubt this guy is as bad as you're thinking he is, but if we're not going to be able to have our alone time then; let's move it up to now."

Hinata bit back a moan, reaching to entangle their fingers before they went any farther as he pushed her gently down on the couch. "Ah, I-I actually wasn't planning to stay the night here you know."

Naruto only chuckled, grinding their hips together in a way that made her gasp. "Oh? But your body disagrees."

-oOo-

Lilac eyes widened at the red flashing numbers of the current time: 4:08 am.

Another minute passed before Hinata turned herself away from the clock, pulled right into the familiar scent of faded earthy cologne.

"Naruto?" Hinata whispered, poking his shoulder gently to which he only let out a light snore. She paused for a moment at awakening him from his slumber, watching the rhythmic moving of his chest with each breathe he took until his eyes opened slightly.

Hinata nearly squeaked, Naruto tightening his possessive hold around her; azure eyes observing her casually. "Been ogling me in my sleep again, hmm?"

"I-I was only trying to wake you up!" Hinata explained quickly, huffing when Naruto simply laughed at her excuse.

"You don't need to leave so soon even if it's early. I'm sure you're still sleepy after all." Naruto commented with a yawn.

The words were similar in nature to what she had told him when he had been at her place only a few nights ago and persuading him to let her leave before any of his neighbors could see her leave slowly drifted from her mind too once he affectionately pecked her forehead.

She was falling again, inevitably for Naruto's tempting offers and enticing smirks, but a paralyzing thought abruptly came into her head just as she closed back her eyes. 'Is this kind of thing happening to Hanabi as well?'

Hanabi is smart though, a skilled martial artist and on her way to being amongst the top graduates of her high school class, possibly even the valedictorian. Their father had his sights set on her even possibly running one of their corporations in the near future and yet, he didn't know about this other life she had gradually been living.

Toneri could have picked her out easily from the crowds, knowing from the start she was a Hyuga based on her trademark eyes or maybe Hanabi had been the one to initiate contact with him if the way she went on about his looks was anything to go by.

Thoughts of Hanabi carrying out sexual relationships, drinking , partying, and disobeying the family brought up a wave of nausea as she buried her face into one of Naruto's pillows to block out the images.

The most painful idea of them all though that her mind had managed to conjure before it finally let her rest once more was the guilt that perhaps Hanabi had learned all of this from watching her own secretive behavior with Naruto.

-oOo-

'It seems like I'm already half-way done with my second drink. Where is this guy?' Hinata thought, observing amongst the crowds of guests for a man matching Hanabi's description.

Next to her she could tell Naruto was trying to refrain from groaning in boredom. She knew he was itching to get out of the suit and tie she had asked him wear considering he only saved it for higher end events: not going to the club where they often got intimate.

Naruto caught her brief glance; smiling discreetly beneath the palm of his hand while the other moved below the table along her thigh to underneath her silk evening dress.

He drew small circles in her skin the closer he got, snickering lowly when she almost leaned in to his touch. Hinata's breath quickened for a moment when he finally teased along the edge of her panties, slipping a finger inside her before she pushed his hand away.

"Are you alright Hinata? You look flustered." Hanabi noticed, oblivious to the pair's behavior or at least Naruto's.

Hinata quickly nodded her head, controlling her quiver of pleasure. 'Not in front of my sister!' Hinata yelled towards Naruto internally, who persisted to be smug from his position.

"I-I'm fine, it's a little stuffy because so many people are in here. More importantly though, where is your date at; did you call or text him to make sure he knew where to be?" Hinata questioned, needing the topic off of her.

Hanabi frowned at her lecturing tone, about to retort when a man approached from behind the two. "Oh, there he is now!"

"Sorry I'm running late Hanabi; getting through the VIP line took longer than I thought." Toneri explained; smiling as Hanabi scooted over for him.

Hanabi shook her head, turning her attention back towards Hinata and Naruto. "It's no trouble, I'm so glad you finally get to meet someone from my family! This is my older sister Hinata and her boyfriend Naruto."

Hinata politely extended her hand to greet him, blushing when he guided it towards his lips for a small peck as she quickly retracted it back. "It's an honor to meet the woman Hanabi speaks so fondly of."

Naruto arched an eyebrow at the action; blue eyes narrowing silently as he only gave him a small nod in acknowledgment. 'I already don't like this guy.'

"Um, so how exactly did you and Hanabi meet?" Hinata questioned as a waiter came around with their appetizers.

Toneri cut off part of the bread roll, gaining a thoughtful expression as he applied some butter along the edges. "Well, we met here if that's what you mean. Hanabi had accidently bumped into me while playing a pool game with one of her friends. Her eyes were the first thing that caught my attention and we got to talking and the rest is history; it appears you have the same lavender eyes as well."

'So it was her eyes that interested him after all.' Hinata mused internally, but nodded her head to his inquiry. "It's a trait that all of the Hyuga have."

"How long have you two been dating anyways seeing as you can only meet here? You know she's a minor, don't you?" Naruto pointed out after swallowing down his bread.

Hanabi sent Naruto a dirty look for the question, moving to grab Toneri's hand. "As I already told Hinata, age isn't important! Toneri and I may have only been dating for a few months now, but I trust him. You're a bit older than Hinata and she trusts you too, right?"

"Well yeah…hey wait a minute; don't try to turn this around on us! Hinata and I are still the same age!" Naruto griped back.

Toneri chuckled at his outburst, furthering Naruto's annoyance with him as he patted Hanabi's hand. "There's no reason to cause a commotion or get mad at them; they're just worried about you."

Hanabi flustered slightly in embarrassment, murmuring a quiet apology to the pair. "I'm sorry, that shouldn't have riled me up so much. I know you two mean well, but you know how much I hate being babied; I get enough of that back at the compound."

The rest of the meal went by smoothly enough; Hinata learned that Toneri indeed attended the same college as she and Naruto and that he was pursuing a degree in Physics to learn more about space. He wasn't at all like some sleazy man she had first pictured him out to be until they moved to the dance floor to burn off their dinner.

That was when his perfect façade started to slip.

Their eyes caught amongst various dancers and he sent her what she was sure were flirtatious winks and grins that made her squeamish. She responding in turn by hugging Naruto closer, wrapping her arms around his neck as a slow song came on for him to get the picture. 'Why won't he stop looking this way?'

Toneri glowered as Naruto used the chance brush fingers methodically along her curves, but his eyes continued to follow them for the rest of the night.

-oOo-

"That bastard was looking at you more than his own supposed girlfriend! And I've never heard or seen a guy named Toneri Otsutsuki before on campus!" Naruto growled, walking Hinata home after another long day.

Hinata couldn't help but smile, it wasn't often she heard Naruto sound so envious. "We probably have never seen him around much since his degree plan is so different from yours and mine since we're nutrition and law majors respectively. None of the classes we need to take probably correlate with his." 'I recognize his last name though; his family has ties with some of my father's business partnerships...'

"Ugh, well I'm just pissed that it seems like tonight he took advantage of your sister just to get closer to you." Naruto stated bitterly.

Hinata nodded her head, frowning at the images of the secretive looks and grins he had given throughout the course of the night. "I was hoping what we did on the dance floor would get him to stop; Hanabi's not even going to believe us without any proper evidence to back up our claims of what he was doing."

Naruto snickered, moving to give her a kiss as they approached her apartment. "Well, unless he's a covert pervert, I don't think he'll want to watch anymore of what we do at said club."

Hinata shook her head at his joking; lightly tapping their heads together in parting before waving as he disappeared down the street.

'Shower then bed.' Hinata mused to herself, pausing outside her door when she saw a white manila envelope on the ground with her name in neat red cursive. Hinata lifted it off the ground cautiously, shaking it to get an idea of what was inside: it sounded like stacks of paper or index cards.

Hinata gingerly opened the flap and grabbed from the pile to see what they were, shock making her instantly drop them all in a sudden panic.

They were all racy photos of herself and Naruto from the club.

Thanks for reading, I would love and appreciate any feedback ;)
