Chapter 4
Naruto and Hinata walked in silence towards the training grounds. They had decided that the training grounds would be a great place to watch the fireworks, away from the crowds, they can eat their cakes and talk together. Hinata was nervous, even more so than the start of their date, she was actually going to be alone with Naruto. No distractions, no friends butting in, just the two of them. What do I say? What if he thinks my conversation is boring? How many cakes can I eat without him thinking I'm a greedy? Hinata groaned as her mind over flowed with question after question.
"Er Hinata, are you ok?" Naruto asked her.
"Sure, *cough, I was thinking we should of bought some drinks back in town to go with our drinks."
"Oh man your right, I'll quickly run back quick. Meet you at training ground 10." Naruto ran back towards the town leaving Hinata in a state of shock. She hadn't meant him to go get drinks but at least she could use this time to sort her head out. She walked to training ground 10 feeling the wind hit her as she stepped in to the field, she took in the area. She had to admit Naruto had thought of a great spot. Training ground 10 was beautiful, on the left side was a dense forest that covered most of Konoha. The right hand side lead down a hill towards the cemetery. But in front of was a circle or wooden posts and behind them a magnificent waterfall, and across the middle of the waterfall was a fallen tree. Hinata had only been here a few times.
She placed the box of cakes on one of the low wooden posts and walked over to the river that flowed from the water fall. She tentatively sat down at the waters edge and removed her sandles. Slowly she eased her feet into the chilled water. She sat there for a few minutes just feeling the water lap at her feet while she leant back on her hands, closed her eyes and leant her head back towards the sky. She felt the wind rustle through her hair sending it all over, but she didn't care. Finally feeling more relaxed she decided to go one step further. Taking her feet out of the water she manipulated some chakra to her feet and walked to the middle of the river just in front of the waterfall. Taking a deep breath she formed a sphere of chakra around her self, moving her feet she twirled and spun on the water. Every so often she would dip the tips of her fingers in to the water, sending droplets out towards her sphere, the droplet would then flow upwards in a spiral over her sphere and once it reached the top it would spread out all around her. Hinata lost all thought of time, of worrying about her date with Naruto, of anything. The only thing she thought of was the water, the feel of it and her dance.
Naruto was awe struck, he literally couldn't move and he didn't want to. He was hiding in the shadows of a tree. He had arrived at the training ground and saw Hinata taking steps onto the water. He was going to call out but something told him not too, and he was glad he didn't. Hinata looked stunning dancing on the water the way her body moved as she spun. The natural curves of her womanly body only added to the effect of the dance. Her hair blowing all around her as she danced. The way the water droplets came off her hands. Also when Hinata would bend down to touch the water with her hands the tips of her hair would dip in the water too. As she would flick her head back the water would fry up and around her. It was like she was mermaid coming up from the depths. Naruto didn't know how long she danced or how long he stood there, not that he cared this was one of the most stunning things he had ever witnessed in his life. But something was telling him this wasn't the first time he was seeing something like this, he just couldn't place where or when. Watching her dance slow he made his way to the base of the hill to make it look like he had just arrived.
Hinata slowed down her dance and came to a stop looking at the waterfall. She breathed in and out slowly and smiled to herself. It felt good to dance on the water again.
"Hinata!" Turning towards Naruto's voice she saw him running up the hill towards her. She made her way over to the circle of wooden posts not bothering to put her shoes back on, she had always loved the feel of nature as she walked.
"I got the drinks." He smiled his usual big Naruto smile. Hinata smiled back feeling his infectious smile. "Lets sit on tree and eat our cakes yeah?" Hinata went to sit on one of the low posts when she felt Naruto gently pull her back up. She looked at him puzzled when he walked off in the direction of the waterfall. He walked on the water then headed up the side of the cliff, with Hinata following behind with the cakes. Finally they made their way to the tree trunk that was across the middle of the waterfall, and sat down in the middle of the trunk with their feet dangling over the edge. Silently they both looked at the view of their village. The lights from the houses and coloured lanterns shone brightly against the now dark sky. In the distance they could just make out the outline of the Hokage monument.
"Cake?" Hinata asked, bringing the cake box her lap.
"Hmmmmm, which one would the Hyuga-Hime suggest." He teased. Hinata laughed and nudged Naruto in the shoulder.
"The Hyuga-Hime is not here, my younger sister is the Hyuga-Hime, not me."
"Why not? You'd make a gorgeous princess." Hinata blushed at his compliment.
"Well when we came back from the war I decided to officially move aside for my sister. She had been given it before the war, but I wanted to make it official, because since the Pein attack my farther was re-thinking. After the war my father had seen how strong I could really be but I realised I wanted to train the next generation on ninja rather than be a heiress."
"I think you'd be great in charge of a team."
"Oh Naruto, try this one first." Wanting the quickly change the subject. She pointed at the cream slice, but instead of the cream being normal whipped cream, this cream had icing and other sweet things added to it. Hinata deciding to be brave, took the cream slice in her hand and held it up to Naruto's mouth.
Naruto's eyes widened, realising what she was doing. Leaning forward on one hand her dress had ridden up so high he could see most of her thighs the only thing he couldn't tell you was what colour panties she was wearing, just! He gulped pulling his eyes away from her dress and looked in to her eyes where it was safe. He opened his mouth and let her place half the cream slice into his mouth, carefully he took a bite. She was right this cream slice was a great cake to start with, it tasted amazing. He was moaning with out even realising it.
Hinata placed the other half of the cream slice in her mouth and couldn't help the moan that came out too. I wonder what people would think hearing Naruto and me moaning like this? Throwing that thought out her mind she decided she didn't care what people thought any more.
"Another?" She asked him once they had both finished their cakes.
"Hell yeah!" Naruto agreed. Hinata picked out a four layered sponge. In between each layer was cream, marzipan and strawberry jam. Again she held the cake out for him to take a bite. Once Naruto took a bite some of the cream oozed out of the side and went onto her finger.
"SorrieHinataididntmeanto." He said trying to talk with his mouth full of cake. Naruto watched as Hinata sucked on her finger licking and sucking off the cream. I'm definitely turning into a pervert! He thought. He heard as Hinata pulled out her finger from her mouth with a pop and noticed there was cream on her finger she licked it off. Naruto gulped and quickly placed a hand in his trousers pocket and tried to hide his obvious hard on. He was going to have to have a shower to relieve himself once he got home, he'd never had so many sexual images flood his mind in one night.
In the distance the first firework went off into the night sky, flooding their village in a flash of blue light for a brief moment. Once one went off another and another joined it, each a different colour. People could heard oohing and arhing as each one went off.
"Er, I was thinking, you know if you've had a good time and all we could, you know...maybe do this again?" Naruto asked. Hinata quickly turned to look at Naruto.
"You mean, a 2nd date?"
Naruto put one day behind his neck and began to rub it nervously.
"Well if you want."
"Yes!" She shouted. "Er I mean, I would like that Naruto-Kun." Smooth Hinata, real smooth! Her inner self said.
They quietly watched the fireworks in the distance while Naruto finished off the cakes. Hinata had dreaded them being over, but at least now she knew she had another chance with Naruto to show him how much she had changed since their academy days.
"We should get you back, your father gave me strict instructions. I gotta play good for a 2nd date." He teased. Hinata laughed as he helped her up and they began to make their way down the hill towards the Hyuga compound.
"Will you be with your family tomorrow for the memorial?"
The memorial was to take place at the cemetery. It took place every year the day after the fireworks festival at mid-day. It was to thank their fallen comrades for their sacrifice for peace and to ensure their sacrifice was never forgotten. To Hinata this sacrifice was much more, her cousin, whom she had considered a brother , Neji had literally sacrificed himself for Hinata. She had stood in front of two wooden stakes that were aimed right at Naruto, gladly sacrificing herself knowing that the only way to win the war was if Naruto survived. However Neji had seen Hinata and had jumped in front of the wooden stakes before they could have hit her or Naruto.
"Yeah. I hear your making a speech." She said, trying to not bring up the images of Neji dying.
"Urh, don't remind me Kikashi is making me. Telling me I should think of it as training to become Hokage. Almost makes me re-think my dream."
"When I was younger my mother taught me that when speaking in front of people you should make sure you look in the peoples eyes that mean the most to you. That way they can give you the comfort and courage you need."
"Huh...Yeah I'll give it a go."
They came to a stop at the Hyuga gates. Hinata smiled at the guards on each side.
"I'll see you tomorrow Naruto-Kun."
"Yes, er thank you for a great night." He bowed, having no clue what to do. Did he kiss her? Kiss her hand? Could he kiss her in front of theses two guards, that were trying their best not to look but they obviously were.
Hinata bowed back and turned, the wooden gates opened and she was gone.
