A/N: So sorry for the long wait. There goes the 'I'm on fire thing' T-T


Chapter 4- Cinnamon rolls, swimming and training!

Hachiro woke up bright and early and jumped out of his bed then jumped into the shower. The sound of the shower easily woke Tamotsu up slightly. Once Hachiro was done with his shower, he quickly ran to his bag and pulled out his ninja attire.

"Hachiro….what are you (yawn) doing?" Tamotsu asked tiredly. Hachiro stopped putting his fishnet shirt on and looked at his teammate/friend and grinned while scratching the back of his head.

"O-Oh, I didn't mean wake you Tamotsu. I was just getting ready to met Hinata" Hachiro said while putting his shirt on, making sure it shows enough of his chest.

Tamotsu looked at the clock and groaned in his pillow "Dude, it's five in the morning. Go back to sleep" He threw his pillow at the love struck idiot." Hachiro caught the pillow then threw it back at him.

"Hey early bird catches the worm" He said while brushing his teeth.

"What ever happened to 'easing it in'" Tamotsu said getting up with a struggle 'I'm not going to get any sleep now' he got out of bed and stretched. He only wore a pair of pajama pants and no shirt, showing his flame tattoo he got on his arm "You never woke up this early before."

"I never met a girl like Hinata before" Hachiro said while tying his head band behind his short bangs. Tamotsu slowly walked into the shower.

"Hachiro, you only knew her for two days" Tamotsu shouted from the shower.

Hachiro grinned as he put on his ninja scandals "Haven't you ever heard of Love at first sight?" Hachiro said while stretching some more.

"Haven't you ever heard of rushing it?" Tamotsu shouted again. Hachiro shock his head.

"I like to call it pushing forward' Hachiro said then left the room. Tamotsu shook his head 'What a moron'

In the Lobby-

"Maybe I should have waited a little while longer?" Hachiro said while sitting on a couch in the lobby. A group of young maids were giggling at and blushing at the oblivious ninja.

One of them had gained enough courage and walked up to him "Excuse me sir but my name is Jun and I was wonder….are you waiting for someone. Hachiro looked at her with a confused look. She had short brown hair that was tied into three buns and light green eyes. She wore a maid's outfit like the others but she customized hers to show her large breast. "Maybe I can help you look for them." She said as she bent down, exposing more of her bust. Hachiro grinned.

"No thanks Jun, I'll just sit here and wait for her" Hachiro said with a large smile. Jun gave a weak smile.

"So, who is she….your girlfriend?" Jun said while sitting down next to Hachiro.

Hachiro slowly shook his head. "I wish…..she's my tour guide around the village" Hachiro said with a saddened face.

"Oh….so you're from another village" she said trying to change the subject.

Hachiro nodded "Yep, headband says it all" He pointed at his headband. Jun mentally slapped herself 'of course the headband, idiot!' "Hey I have a question for you?"

"Huh….what is it?" Jun asked. Hachiro looked away with a blush.

"H-How does a guy impress a girl?" Hachiro said with a nervous grin.

"Well, most guys usually just show off their physical features like their muscles or their abs" Jun said, drooling slightly.

"Great…." Hachiro said defeated. 'I don't have any of those….' It wasn't like he was a toothpick or anything. He had small muscles on his arms and body and he had a small four pack but he was no Hercules. Jun noticed this and went into panic mode.

"B-But some girls go for the smart type" Jun said with a weak smile but Hachiro only went more into depression mode. He was defiantly not the smartest guy around. His grades in his academy days were barely passable and he didn't become a chunin with brains. Jun sighed. "But I think most girls like the funny guys." Hachiro's eyes widen 'that's it! I'll win Hinata's affections with my comic genus! I can only imagine it now' He blushed at the thought.

"Oh Hachiro, you're so funny" Hinata would say with hearts in her eyes. Hachiro turned with flowing long hair, a muscled body, with a rose in his mouth. "Kiss me Hachiro" Hinata said while in a skimpy shirt that barely covered her cleavage and really short shorts.

"Oh Hinata…."He imagined him kissing her while waves it the shore and birds circled around them with rose pedals falling gently from the sky.

Hachiro moaned in pleasure with his hands holding his head. Jun looked at him confused. 'I was trying to flirt with this?' She laughed nervously and began to walk away. 'What a strange man' Hachiro stayed like that for 2 hours until someone tapped him on the shoulder. He looked up to see Hinata staring down at him with a weirded out face.

"H-Hinata" he jumped in the hair, landing on his butt. "W-Why are you here?" Hinata looked at her watch.

"Um…wasn't I supposed to come at around 7:00" Hinata asked with a confused face. Hachiro nodded and quickly got up. 'Oh I almost forgot!'

"Hey Hinata I have a joke for you" Hachiro said with a grin.

"Okay….." Hinata sat down on the red couch.

"Okay, what did the Leaf ninja say to the sand ninja after the attack a year ago?"

"What?" Hinata asked.

"You know one day you're going to get your just deserts!" Hachiro said with a laugh but died down when he realized Hinata wasn't laughing. "G-Get it because deserts kinda sound like desserts and…" Hachiro blushed and looked down at his feet. Hinata's eye twitched 'W-Was that the joke….?' Hachiro laughed nervously and began walking to the door. Hinata slowly followed. They walked for an hour without talking. 'Geez, He's really taking that bad joke hard. Maybe I should make him feel better…after all he made me feel better last night, even though he acted like a complete pervert' meanwhile Hachiro was beating himself up fiercely in his head. 'Damn it Hachiro, you are such an unfunny, not smart, unmanly human on the face of the earth! That joke was terrible…Hinata must think I'm a complete dimwit' Hachiro slowly turned around to see Hinata smile gently at the waterfall ninja.

"Hey Hachiro, it was kind of funny" Hinata said with a weak smile. Hachiro grinned brightly.

"Y-You thought it was funny?" Hachiro looked up with a huge grin. Hinata nodded with a weak smile "Good because I have plenty of others if you want me to tell them to you" Hachiro said while putting his arm around her shoulder. Hinata smiled weakly.

"T-There's really no need" She sniffed the air. 'Wow, Hachiro smells nice. Like pine trees and fresh water' She blushed 'what the heck are you thinking? Get a hold of yourself' She glared when she felt a hand on her left breast.

"Wow Hinata, you have really big boobs. What are you….D cup?" Hachiro said with a huge smile on his face. Hinata growled and punched him dead in the face.

"WE CAN"T HAVE ONE DAY CAN WE?" She shouted while dragging Hachiro by the leg.

"Hinata be gentle, not the face please!" he begged and whined. Once they made it to Konoha Park, she threw him in a nearby lake.

"Go cool yourself off!" Hinata shouted and walked away. "You are so lucky that I can't just leave you here" Hachiro slowly swam out of the water and dried himself off.

"What an idiot" Hachiro quickly turned around to see Kiyomi and Tamotsu standing on the water. Hachiro laughed nervously with a blush on his face. Hinata walked back, after cooling off, and waved towards Kiyomi and Tamotsu. Kiyomi jumped off the water and landed on a nearby tree branch near the tree Hinata was standing under. "How's it going?"

Hinata glared at Hachiro and then looked back a Kiyomi "I-It could be better" Kiyomi nodded.

"He's a little pervert isn't he?" Hinata smiled and nodded. Tamotsu sat next to Hachiro and sighed.

"Why don't you ever listen?" Hachiro slipped on his back and groaned "I told you to ease in but instead you….." he motioned for Hachiro to speak.

"I-I…um….t-touched her boob and a-asked….if she was a D-cup" Tamotsu hit Hachiro on the head hard.

"You moron" Hachiro nodded while rubbing his head.

"Why are you here anyway? Aren't you and Kiyomi supposed to be with Masami-sensei…doing our mission or something" Hachiro crossed his arms. Kiyomi and Hinata walked over to the boys and sat down next to Tamotsu.

"Masami-sensei had to meet with the Hokage about something" Kiyomi said with her cheerful voice.

"In other words Masami-sensei and Lady Tsunade are out getting drunk or something" Tamotsu yawned.

Kiyomi glared at him then continued "Anyways, she said for us to find you and Hinata and stay with you guys until she's finished with business" Kiyomi jumped up on her feet.

"Or when she's done with her hangover" Kiyomi kicked Tamotsu in the face then sighed.

Hinata groaned 'So I have to play babysitter for two more people? At least they're more tolerable then Hachiro' Hinata sighed and got up slowly. Hachiro got up with her and grinned.

"So cutie, what do you want to do now?" Hachiro asked. Hinata glared and turned to Kiyomi.

"So what do you guys want to do?" Hachiro feel down on the floor with fake tears.

"Why so cold?" Hachiro dramatically said with fake tears falling from his eyes. Tamotsu shook his head and got up, stomping on Hachiro's stomach. Suddenly the whole park was felled with the threes growling stomachs. Hachiro, Tamotsu and Kiyomi looked at each other with blushes on there faces. Hachiro quickly got up and cleared his throat.

Hinata giggled "I-I guess I could make you guys something to eat" Hinata suggested.

"You cook?" Tamotsu asked. Hinata nodded and Tamotsu smirked "Okay sure"

"Yeah food! I haven't eaten breakfast so it's chow time" Kiyomi ran up to Hinata and locked arms. She then pulled her to away with a bright smile on her child-like face. "And while we're walking, you wouldn't mind telling me a little bit about your dog friend" Kiyomi winked. Hinata blushed and laughed nervously. Hachiro and Tamotsu quickly followed the two chatting girls.

With Hanabi-

Hanabi sighed with her eyes closed as she laid on the cool wet grass of her family's garden. 'Now this is how you start your mornings' she quickly got up sensing three different chakra signatures. She sighed in relief seeing it was only Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon.

"Hey what's up guys?" Hanabi smiled.

"Hey Hanabi" Moegi grinned. Moegi wore a light pink short-sleeve shirt with a dark purple skirt that ended at her knees. She wore black standard ninja sandals with fishnet on her ankles. She also had on goggles on her forehead.

"Hello Hanabi" Udon said with his runny nose. He wore a black long-sleeved shirt with black shorts and black ninja sandals. His goggles were tied around his neck.

"H-Hey Hanabi" Konohamaru shyly greeted. He wore a dark green short-sleeved short with black shorts and black ninja sandals. He wore his goggles on his forehead. Hanabi looked down with a small blush on her face. Moegi and Udon were silently snickering, but not silent enough for Hanabi and Konohamaru to not hear, Konohamaru looked at his two friends with a shut up expression.

"So Hanabi, what are you doing out here?" Moegi asked, ignoring Konohamaru.

"Oh, well since my father is out of the village for some reason, I thought that I can take a day off from training…but don't tell him" Hanabi motioned for them to seat down next to her. Konohamaru quickly sat next to Hanabi and began smiling like an idiot. Udon shook his head and sat next to Moegi. "So what are you guys doing in the Hyuga compound?"

"We wanted to ask if you wanted to hang out with us today" Moegi smiled at the Hyuga. "It was Konohamaru's idea" Konohamaru turned a bright red. Hanabi turned to Konohamaru and smiled.

"I would love to" Konohamaru looked up and smiled with a blush on his face. Hanabi returned the smile and blush. Moegi looked at Udon with a confused face.

"They haven't said anything in five minutes" she whispered to her friend. "It's really starting to get creepy" Udon nodded and cleared his throat. Konohamaru and Hanabi snapped out of their staring contest and looked at the other two with red faces. Hanabi sniffed the air and smiled brightly.

"Hey Hanabi, what's that great smell?" Konohamaru asked while sniffing the air. Moegi and Udon sniffed the air as well and drooled slightly.

"My big sister is making cinnamon rolls come on, lets get some" Hanabi quickly got up and motioned for her friends to follow her. The three quickly got up and ran to the location of the smell.

With Hinata and the Waterfall ninja-

"Wow Hinata, that smells great!" Hachiro shouted with a huge grin on his face. Hinata smiled softly and waited for the cinnamon rolls to be done. She walked over and pouring tea in their cups.

"S-So, how long are you three going to be in the village?" Hinata asked after pouring tea in her own cup and sat down with her legs crossed.

"Six maybe seven months, tops" Tamotsu said with his head rested on his hands. Kiyomi elbowed his shoulder to keep him awake than smiled brightly at Hinata.

"I'm sorry but he's really tired" Hinata nodded and sipped some of her tea.

"Yeah I wonder whose fault that was." Tamotsu glared at Hachiro, who was smiling nervously and scratching the back of his head. Soon the door flew open, showing Hanabi, Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon with drool dripping from their mouths. Hinata smiled softly.

"Hanabi, is there something you need?" Hinata asked. Hanabi quickly ran over to her smiling sister with puppy dog eyes.

"Big sister Hinata, could my friends and I have some of your cinnamon rolls, please?" Hanabi asked with Konohamaru and the others giving her the same puppy dog look. Hinata nodded and went into the kitchen, leaving Hanabi alone with everyone else. Hanabi turned and sat down. Moegi hopped over to Hanabi with excitement.

"Oh I can't wait to taste some of your sisters cooking! I heard it's the best in the village, possibly the entire Fire Country!" Moegi said with excitement leaking out of her body. Hanabi nodded with just as much excitement. It was true that many, if not all, the villagers in Konoha would sell their leg for a bit of Hinata's home made foods. Tsunade often asks her to cook for diplomats and noble men when ever they come around Konoha. Hinata, much like her ability to make people tell her the truth, is completely oblivious to her talent as a chief and blushes often whenever someone compliments her cooking. Hachiro sniffed the air and tried to control his drooling 'Damn that smells good' Hinata came out with a pan full of freshly made glazed cinnamon rolls. Hinata gently put it down and grabbed four plates then gently put a cinnamon roll on the plate. Hanabi quickly grabbed hers and thanked her sister. Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon grabbed theirs and thanked her in unison.

"Thank you!" they said then left with Hanabi. Hinata smiled and turned to her own guest. Each of them grabbed and plate and a cinnamon roll and slowly bit on them. Each of their faces glowed with joy.

"WOW, this has to be the best thing I've ever tasted in my entire life!" Hachiro stuffed the cinnamon roll in his mouth and smiled while grabbing two more.

"They weren't lying when they said that you were the best cook!" Kiyomi complimented while quickly chewing on her cinnamon roll. Tamotsu grabbed two more cinnamon rolls and shoved them down his mouth. Hinata smiled and took one for herself and began to slowly eat one of her quickly eaten cinnamon rolls.

With Hanabi and the others-

Moegi nearly cried when her cinnamon roll was eaten up. "Wow Hanabi, your sister cooking can't be beat can it?" Hanabi shrugged with a smug smile.

"I wouldn't say that. Hinata has been teaching me how to make some of her dishes and I think that I'm doing a descent job at cooking" she grinned 'Who am I kidding; no one can beat Hinata's food.'

"So Hanabi, What (sniff) do you want to do?" Udon said while rubbing his stuffed up nose. Hanabi thought for a second then smiled.

"How about we go swimming!" Hanabi grinned, seeing her friends nodded and get up. Konohamaru blushed 'Oh my god! I get to see Hanabi in a bathing suit!' he giggled and quickly ran up and ran next to his friends.

With Hinata and the waterfall ninjas-

Once the four were finished, they decided to train for a bit. Hachiro silently grinned in his head. 'This is perfect! Now I can show Hinata how strong I am. Luckily the guys would go easy on me this time' Hachiro thought as they made it to the training grounds. Tamotsu and Hachiro sat under a tree and grinned.

"Hey you want us to go first?" Kiyomi shouted at the two.

"Ladies first Kiyomi" Tamotsu smirked at Kiyomi's anger. Hachiro grinned at Hinata, hoping she doesn't get made. Hinata smiled and walked with Kiyomi to the center of the training grounds 'Perverts just want to see two girls fight each other' Kiyomi thought while getting into a fighting stance, Hinata nodded and got into her gentle fist stance. Once Tamotsu shouted go, Kiyomi ran up to Hinata and tried to kick her in the head. Hinata ducked and grabbed Kiyomi's leg then threw her on the ground. Kiyomi quickly flipped up on her feet and punched Hinata in the face. Hinata recovered quickly and swiped her foot on the ground, causing Kiyomi to lose her balance. Kiyomi quickly got up and flipped over Hinata. As she flipped over her, she quickly threw four shiriken at her. Hinata easily dodge them and jumped back as she threw five kunai at the flexible ninja. Kiyomi flipped over the kunai and tried to slam her right leg on Hinata. Hinata barely dodge the attacked and gasped as Kiyomi left a crater on the ground. Kiyomi did a few hand signs and grinned.

"WATER STYLE: WATER SHOOTER JUTSU!" As she shouted the jutsu's name, water began to shoot from the ground. Hinata jumped away trying to dodge the water that was springing out of the ground. Kiyomi stopped the jutsu and punched Hinata in the stomach, causing the air to leave her mouth. Hinata slowly recovered and charged chakra to her hands. Kiyomi stared in confusion and gasped as she realized that Hinata's eyes had a cold look. Kiyomi tried to move away but for some reason she couldn't move. Hinata rushed at her and kicked her to a tree. She did a few hand signs and activated her Byakugan. She channeled chakra to her palm and slammed her palm to Kiyomi's stomach, sending her through the tree and onto the forest floor. Hachiro looked with wide eyes 'those aren't Hinata's eyes' Hinata threw Kiyomi up in the air and, just as Kiyomi was about to hit the ground, she kicked her in the back, sending her back to the center of the training ground. Kiyomi slowly got up and smirked while rubbing some blood off her lips. She quickly did a few hand signs "WATER STYLE: WATER DRAGON JUTSU!" She shouted as a large dragon made of water shot at Hinata.

Hinata smirked and slowly spun her hands around her. "PROTECTION EIGHT TRIGRAMS SIXTY-FOUR PALMS!" as Hinata said her attacks name, sharp chakra strings began to surround her. Kiyomi bit her lip, seeing her dragon being deflected by Hinata's defense. Once the dragon was gone, Hinata ran and hit Kiyomi right in her central chakra network, turning off all her chakra. Kiyomi gasped in pain as she fell to her knees. Kiyomi slowly looked up to see Hinata's eyes glowed dark lavender. Kiyomi backed away slowly in fear. Hinata's fingernails slowly grew sharper.

Hachiro quickly got up and gently put his hands on her shoulders from behind her "Hey Hinata, calm down" he grinned at her. Hinata fell back into Hachiro's arms and looked up at him with her normal lavender eyes.

"W-What happened?" Hinata asked while getting out of Hachiro's arms and helping Kiyomi up.

Kiyomi giggled nervously "You….won I guess" Hinata helped Kiyomi sit under a tree. "I guess it's you guys turn now" Hachiro and Tamotsu nodded and walked to the center of the training ground. Hachiro looked at Hinata with a worried expression. 'Hinata…'

"Ready Hachiro?" Tamotsu shouted while stretching his arms. Hachiro nodded as he got into his fighting stance and grinned. Tamotsu smirked and also went into a fighting stance.

With Hanabi and the others-

Come on Moegi stopped splashing me!" Udon said while covering himself from the continued splashes from Moegi. Moegi swam around him and stuck her tongue out. Hanabi smiled while taking off her towel, showing a light purple one piece, and dived into the lake. Konohamaru tried to cover his blush and jumped in with her. Moegi giggled and went under water. She came up next to Hanabi and giggled.

"So Hanabi, what's with you and Konohamaru?" Hanabi blushed rapidly at Moegi's statement.

"I-I don't know what you are talking about" Hanabi said while looking away from Moegi.

"Oh come on Hanabi, You and I both know you like Konohamaru. It's so obvious" Moegi swam around Hanabi. Hanabi looked down at the water. "Can't blame you though, I used to like Konohamaru too. But…" She looked over at Udon and smiled. "I found some one slightly more well for me" Hanabi looked to where Moegi was staring at and giggled.

"Udon...? I would have never guesses you liked Udon" Moegi smiled at her.

"Love surprises you." Hanabi nodded in agreement. Konohamaru swam over to Udon and sighed.

"Thinking about Hanabi huh" Udon said with a grin. Konohamaru turned around and blushed so hard he looked like a tomato.

"I-I was not!" Konohamaru defended himself.

"Look, the Great Konohamaru just stuttered." Udon pointed at him. Konohamaru looked away in embarrassment. He looked over at Hanabi and smiled shyly.

With Hachiro and Tamotsu-

Come on Hachiro!" Tamotsu shouted with a smirk. Hachiro quickly ran at him and tried to punch him in the face but Tamotsu easily dodged this and went to kick him in the stomach. Hachiro blocked this kick, jumped in the air and threw five kunai at the tall ninja. Tamotsu quickly grabbed a kunai from his weapon pouch and deflected the kunai. Tamotsu rapidly did a few hand signs and shouted "EARTH STYLE: RISING STONE SPEARS!" he shouted as earth spears shoot out from the ground and headed towards Hachiro.

Hachiro did a hand sign "FIRE STYLE: BURNING SHIRIKEN!" Hachiro's hands caught on fire and soon he threw shiriken shaped flames at Tamotsu. Tamotsu barely dodged the shiriken but noticed the bottom of his shirt was on fire.

"AAAH..! STOP DROP AND ROLL! STOP, DROP AND ROLL!" he shouted while rolling on the floor. Hachiro snickered and jumped down helping Tamotsu up. "Thanks…" He smirked and threw Hachiro across the field and into a tree. Hachiro slowly recovered and glared at Tamotsu, who had a victorious grin on his face. Hachiro quickly ran at him then jumped over his shoulder, kicking him down to the ground. As soon as Hachiro landed, he quickly grabbed Tamotsu arm and threw him in the air. Hachiro jumped high into the air and flipped over Tamotsu then, as he was above him,kicked him down again. Tamotsu quickly recovered in the air and landed on his feet. 'Huh, he wants to be serious now' Tamotsu smirked as he ran up to Hachiro as soon as he landed. He jumped in the air and quickly kicked him in the head. Hachiro flipped on the ground and threw a kunai at him. Tamotsu grabbed the kunai and threw it back. Hachiro jumped over the kunai and gripped onto a branch.

Hinata watched in interest and smiled "I never thought that Hachiro was actually a decent ninja."

Kiyomi smiled "Yeah he's like that. But it's funny on how much those two are holding back" Hinata nodded and looked over at Kiyomi.

"I-I'm sorry about our training session. I don't k-know what came over me" Hinata said while looking and picking at the grass. Kiyomi smiled cheerfully at Hinata and put her hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it Hinata. It was actually kinda fun." Hinata smiled and looked over at the two male ninja, who were breathing heavily. Hachiro grinned and sat down on the ground and sighed.

"Wow Tamotsu that was fun" Hachiro grinned. Tamotsu smirked and helped Hachiro up. The two slowly walked to the girls, who were getting up to walk to them. Hachiro quickly ran over to Hinata and smiled cheerfully. "So Hinata, what did you think? Aren't I the strongest ninja you ever seen?" Hinata playfully smiled.

"No not really" Hachiro fell down with from disappointment. Hinata went down and smiled brightly "But your one of the most decent" Hachiro smiled 'its close enough!' Kiyomi and Tamotsu shook their heads with smiles on their faces. "So what do you guys want to do now?"

Tamotsu rub his stomach "How about we get something to eat?" Hinata nodded.

"Well I can always make something again" Kiyomi jumped on Hinata's back.

"You don't look like you're in the cooking mood. How about we go out for lunch?" Hinata yawned and nodded.

"Hey Hinata, we can go to that ramen stand again!" Hachiro jumped from the ground in excitement.

"Okay fine with me" Hinata smiled and walked with them closely following them. Hachiro ran up next to her and grinned. 'She thinks that my joke was funny and that I'm a decent ninja! I'm so close into winning her heart!' Hachiro began laughing softly like a pervert. Hinata stared at Hachiro with a confused face 'Why is he laughing like Lord Jiraiya?' Hinata questioned in her head.


A/N: I'm not that happy on how this chapter went but I still think that it's okay. Sorry for the wait but I was a little stuck on how this chapter was going to go. I'm sorry to inform you that school is coming and that means I won't be able to update my stories that fast so don't give up on me yet. I am still going to finish all my stories no matter how long it takes. Oh and one more thing, some of you might notice that Hinata's eyes glowed dark lavender when in the last chapter they glowed light lavender. You see her eyes glow when of the way she feels like when she felt scared they glow light lavender or when she was fighting they glowed dark lavender. That's all the spoilers I'm going to give (maybe….) Oh and if you want to take a guess on what is wrong with Hinata then by all means go ahead and it you get it right…..You get a free car! Just kidding but I really would like to hear your thoughts XD
