Hi guys. I finally passed my goal of 12 reviews! I'm really happy about that. The reason for me posting now is that I won't be available Sunday. my friends and I got chosen to represent my school at the redskins football game. (i don't even know how to play football lol). So anyways I tried to make this chapter longer. On with the story!

Chapter 3

Hinata sighed. This was the most awkward, embarrassing, and tiring experience of her life.
When is this going to be over? When do I wake up only to realize it was just a dream?
It was only ten in the morning and it seemed like an eternity. Naruto and Hinata were currently walking through Konoha, hoping no one would see them.

Too late.

"Oi!" A voice called from far away.

Both of them turned their head. Kiba was running toward them.

"Hi, Naruto! Hi Hinata!" He yelled out.

"What are you two doing together?" He asked bluntly.
Hmm, that's weird. Hinata tells me everything. Kiba thought. She doesn't look the least bit shy around Naruto.

"Um...we're...mmm" Hinata sputtered.

it's really not like not like Naruto to start stuttering.

"We are on a date-Datte-" Naruto blurted, he had almost said Dattebayo.

Naruto's reasoning for answering that: what would we be doing together? It's not like we hang out a lot. Plus if this was Sakura-Chan, she would punch me real hard in my body or not. But Hinata isn't Sakura-Chan. I hope she doesn't mind. But that might hurt her feelings because she is already in love with Kiba. I'll have to apologize later.

Hinata was just stunned for a second before she started feeling the effect of passing out. The awkwardness of the whole situation just made it worse. Her vision started to blur. Oi gaki, you can't pass out. Naruto wouldn't faint. Kurama growled.

You're right I can't, it's my mission!

She snapped back to real life.

Meanwhile, Kiba was stunned. His jaw dropped down to the floor before he grinned. "Well good luck with your date" he teased. "Also Naruto, if you do one thing to break Hinata's heart, I'll kill you…" Kiba narrows his eyes.

"Don't worry Kiba-Ku- Kiba!-d-Dattebayo!" Hinata answered awkwardly. She was glad Kiba was protective over her, but that's a little much.

Naruto sighed. "That was close"

Hinata was quite. "Um Hina-I mean Naruto, I'm sorry for telling Kiba we were on a date."

"That's fine. I-I don't mind" she blushed

"Um, if you want, we could go to Ichiraku's ramen!" Naruto offered.

Hinata wasn't hungry, but she would never say no to a chance to go on a date with Naruto. Even though it wasn't really an official date. Even though they were in each other's bodies.
"Sure"


At Ichiraku's

Naruto was slurping his ramen like it was the last he will ever eat, whereas Hinata was poking it with her chopsticks. "Are you Okay Naruto? You barely touched your ramen." Ayame asks.

"I'm just not hungry" answered Hinata.

Ayame arched an eyebrow in surprise, but let it go. Hinata usually likes ramen but she just couldn't get herself to eat. "I don't feel so good" Hinata grumbled. Naruto stopped eating "Are you okay?" he asked mouth full of food. Hinata nodded "I just wanna go home" that's when it clicked for both of them. We have to stay at each other's house. "Um, Hinata," Hinata whispered. "Does anyone in the Hyuuga compound know about this?" she asked.

Naruto's eyes widened "Yeah, I told your sister Hanabi"

Hinata sighed in relief, "She would tell you everything you need to know" Hinata got up and started to leave.

"W-what do I need to know?"

"Like rules and stuff. My life is very different from yours" and with that, she left the restaurant.


Naruto wandered back to the Hyuuga compound. He used Hinata's Byakugan to find her room and plopped down on her bed. He was tired. Too much happened in one day.
Naruto's mind wandered back to the fact that he was in Hinata's body.
He had never considered Hinata as a potential partner in the future as he had with Sakura. Nor had he paid any attention to her.

His mind has always accepted the fact that he wouldn't ever have a girlfriend or a wife or even someone who loves him In that way. He knows he will end up single for the rest of his life like Iruka-Sensei.
Sakura was always in love with Sasuke. Who was Hinata in love with? Then he remembered her diary. She was talking about someone that she loved so much, but they would never notice her.
Hinata I know how you feel, I was in love with Sakura. But she'll never love me back… he looked at her hands. They were so small, her hair was so soft, she had just the right everything.
If I could just master this in sexy jutsu… I'll really be the best ninja out there.

Then it hit him. This is Hinata! What a weird way to think of her. He usually daydreams about Sakura, but thinking about it more, Hinata would beat her at everything. Her arms, legs, face, and hair. How could someone so delicate, be so strong?! She looks like a princess but at the same time, she could beat the crap out of anyone. A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. (for the better) "Come in!" He called.

A Hyūga opened the door and bowed. "Hinata-Sama, Hiashi-Sama called you to the main hall in one hour. I assume you know what for. Get ready, you cannot disappoint" he bowed and left.

I don't know what for! Who am I gonna disappoint?! Naruto wanted to yell. But he couldn't expose the situation; Hinata knew so he knew. After he watched the Hyuuga disappeared back into the labyrinth, he used her Byakugan to find Hanabi's room once again.

He knocked on the door hesitantly. He was going to ask Hanabi her why her dad called her to the main hall. Hanabi slowly opened the door and peeked. "Oh, it's you" she muttered. "This gotta be interesting"

"Just let me in!" Naruto pleaded. "Ok, ok, fine" she let Naruto in. He told her about what the guy said and asked her what he meant by it. Hanabi started laughing. "Oh, poor Hinata!" Hanabi exclaims. Naruto raised an eyebrow. "It's just another marriage proposal" she explains. "Hinata gets them a lot".

"What?! But she is only sixteen!"

"She was getting them since she turned twelve. You see, pretty rich girls from powerful clans like her get a lot of hot rich guys from powerful clans asking for her hand in marriage. It also has to do with politics. So Hinata getting married is a big deal" Naruto couldn't fathom the possibility of Hinata getting married so young. "But if so many hot guys want to marry her, then why doesn't she just choose the best one and marry him." Naruto askes. "Well, that's because big sister is stupid. If I was her, I would choose the most handsome, rich, and kindest one of all of them. And they'd be head over heels for me. But Hinata is all caught up in this one boy that she claims to love with all her heart. It's so stupid. That boy is the dumbest person in the world. And he is too dumb to notice her. I don't think she even deserves her to love him" Hanabi loved telling that to Naruto's face, even though he doesn't know it's directed at him.

Naruto thought about it for a moment. "She shouldn't just throw her life away for this stupid kid. But if she really loves him that much, then I think she should tell him. And if he says one thing to break her heart, I'll break his neck!" He announced angrily. Hanabi cackled and snorted with laughter rolling on her bed. Little did he know, if he breaks Hinata's heart he will have to break his own neck.


Hinata opens the door to Naruto's apartment and switches on the light. The bulb flickers a few times before turning on completely. The apartment was eerily silent except for the muffled sound of dogs barking next door. Hinata didn't get a good look at Naruto's apartment when she woke up; she was too flustered. Now looking at it closer, it was a dumping ground. There were clothes, empty cups of ramen, and scrolls littered on the floor everywhere. I guess that's what happens when you don't have parents. Who could blame him?

After she finished tidying up the whole house, she sat on the bed. It was lonely. Does she have to come home to this every day? How sad. Maybe I could do something for him when he gets home tomorrow.

She made some ramen and sat down to eat it when there was a knock on the door. She got up to open it. When Hinata looked through the peephole, she saw Sakura with tears in her eyes in front of the door. She immediately opened it in concern. Sakura looked up at Naruto and started bawling. "What happened?!" Hinata asked. "What's wrong?"

Sakura just shook her head and hugged him. Hinata had no choice but to hug her back. Not only was Sakura hugging Naruto breaking her heart, but she also has to experience this from his point of view. She tried to accept the fact that Naruto would enjoy this. Once Sakura stopped crying, she wiped her tears and stood back. "Sakura-Chan…"

"S-Sasuke-Kun broke up with m-me"

Hinata wasn't shocked. She knew deep inside that they both loved each other but it was nearly impossible for them to get along. "What happened?"

"Well, we were talking about rebuilding his clan" Sakura sniffed "and I thought he was going to ask me to marry him, but he said I wasn't the right one"

Hinata never liked Sasuke. And now he broke he best friend's heart beyond repair.

"I'll talk to that jerk" for almost a second, she forgot she was Naruto. Luckily, Naruto would most probably say the same thing. "No! No. He-he's probably right."

"I wanna be with you Naruto-Kun. I was so stupid loving Sasuke when you were right in front of me. You still loved me even though I would hit you and make fun of you"

Hinata didn't know how to respond to that. She wanted Sakura and Naruto to be happy, but she would be left broken-hearted. That was okay, right? Hinata didn't matter, she wasn't part of this mess. She just happened to switch bodies with Naruto the same time Sakura broke up with Sasuke. Hinata came to the conclusion to try her best to act the same way Naruto would. Like Tsunade-sama said. "Yes Sakura-Chan, I love you" she answered. And Hinata's heart broke.


"There, all done!" Hanabi announced, "now look at Hinata!".

Naruto stared in shock at the woman standing in front of him. She was beautiful, elegant, and graceful. Hinata was wearing the kimono in the back of her dresser, with her hair up and makeup. She was perfect. Am I falling in love with her? No, I can't I'll just hurt myself even more. She is way out of my league. "So, what do you think?" Hanabi asked, "do you think she is pretty?"

Naruto blushed which made him blush more because he was seeing Hinata blush. He swallowed "y-ya she looks nice" Naruto answered. Hanabi giggled. "Okay, so. There are a few things you need to know about these proposals. First thing Hinata says is that she is sorry, she is in love with someone else." Naruto nodded. "

"Then when the guy tries to argue, he offers her money and tells her that he can get more things than anybody because he is rich" Hanabi adds. "She just says that's not what she is looking for. Remember she rejects the politely. Sometimes they can get mad, but don't worry. Lastly, the most important thing you need to be aware of is Dad."

"Your dad?" Naruto askes. "Ya Dad is really mad when a rich person or a dude from a good clan gets declined by her. Her job as an heiress isn't to marry someone she loves. That's just not how it goes. But until she turns twenty-two, she gets to choose who she marries" Hanabi says sadly "just don't say anything that can irritate him"

Naruto processed the information Hanabi was giving him. Hinata must be having a hard life.

Hanabi looked at the time. "You better be going. Good luck"

Naruto nodded nervously and walked out.

He used her Byakugan to find the main hall and opened the big door. looking around, he saw a dimly lit room with her father talking to someone. He stepped in. There, sitting in front of his father, was Sasuke Uchiha. Naruto tried not to let his jaw reach the floor. "Oh. Come Hinata. Sit here" Hiashi gestured. Sasuke smirked. Teme…

HeHEHAAAAAAa. cliffhanger no justu. I don't know if the Sasuke thing was expected and obvious, but I tried. Please review my new goal is 20 (or maybe 21)! have a nice day!
