Haku looked the somewhat modest apartment and inwardly frowned. While Hinata's apartment was indeed spacious and in a decent location, it most certainly was not an apartment that a prominent member of the Hyuga family would have and Haku was certain he had just signed a year of his life away to a nobody. He looked at the quaint art that decorated the walls, the flowers and porcelain figures that adorned the shelves and and various stuffed animals that were on the couch. 'At least it's a place to sleep…' He thought to himself. Once he got paid he would have to quickly find a place of his own. "It's so girly…" he muttered out loud.

"Did you say something?" Hinata nervously asked, slightly embarrassed to have a new person in her home.

"Ah, I said it's so pretty" Haku turned and smiled at her, hiding his true thoughts.

"Th-thank you," Hinata said and blushed slightly and the compliment. It was the first time someone had said that about her place. Ino had always teased that Hinata's apartment was decorated for a little girl, but it was how Hinata had always wanted her room to look like when she was younger and living with her strict family. "Let me show you your room." Hinata said as she walked down the hallway. "You have your own bathroom too, but maintenance is working on it right now so it should be ready tomorrow."

Haku nodded and followed her into the room, please to see that it was plainly furnished. Looking around he was surprised to see his belongings in the room already. Walking over to make sure everything had arrived, he heard Hinata telling him to change while she started dinner.

Finally alone, Haku let out a deep breath. This was going to be very difficult. Pulling out his laptop a white tank top and a pair of loose jeans Haku slipped out of his dress clothes and quickly changed not bothering to close the door since he heard Hinata making a large racket in the kitchen. Settling on the bed he opened his laptop and was relieved to see that there was a wireless connection available. Glancing at his door he quickly looked up Sun Day Cosmetics to see just what kind of job he had gotten into.

Hinata hummed as she prepared a simple meal of sautéed chicken with blanched vegetables. She rarely had someone over for dinner and she was very excited about the company and about her new model. She still couldn't believe that Naruto's friend was working for her. Smiling impishly she dared to think that if Naruto's friend was working for her then she might get to see more of Naruto. Embarrassed at her thoughts she blushed furiously and brought her attention back to the meal cooking on the stove.

Haku blinked at his monitor, shook his head and re-read the article on the screen. Again he blinked in disbelief at the sentence that said The Hyuga heiress, Hinata Hyuga, opens a new line of cosmetics…Haku's mouth dropped. SHE was the heiress? Scrolling down he found a picture, and sure enough it was the shy Hinata.

"Dinner!" Hinata called as she set the plates on the table.

Haku slowly got up and pulled a sweatshirt on, amazed at his luck, and puzzled as to why the heiress was living alone and making cosmetics. Pushing his curiosity aside he prepared himself to do whatever it took to gain her trust. After all this was the chance he wanted. If he could please her and become a reliable asset, he was certain he would forever be able to leave the modeling world behind. He would just have to bide his time to demonstrate that he was more then a pretty face.

Walking to the table, Haku was surprised to see Hinata wearing a loose t-shirt and pajama pants.

"I hope you like it…"Hinata said as she filled Haku's glass with water. "I don't cook much so, I…um…" Hinata trailed off, embarrassed and just trying to make conversation.

"Smells delicious." Haku grinned at her and indeed it did. Hungrily, Haku dug into his plate.

Reassured that Haku was pleased, Hinata began to eat as well and also took the time to again look at the lovely girl sitting at her table.

"So…how do you know Naruto?" Haku asked, trying to find out more about Hinata.

"Oh!" Hinata was surprised at the question and felt slightly hurt that Naruto hadn't told Haku about her. "I went to the same elementary school as Naruto." She said. "But he went to a different middle school. And then we went to the same high school. But we never really talked much, but he was always so nice to me in PE class. He always encouraged me to try harder."

Haku smiled. That sounded like Naruto. "So how did you meet Naruto?" Hinata asked.

"Through a job." Haku said "It was a long time ago, so I can't quite remember what job it was."

"I see." Noticing Haku's glass was nearly empty, Hinata got up to refill it.

"Oh, I can do it," Haku said standing up. However, just as he stood up, Hinata had began to pour the water, which instead of pouring into the glass, was poured onto Haku's sweatshirt, soaking him completely.

"I'm so sorry!" Hinata frantically grabbed the napkin and began to pat down Haku's shirt.

"It's okay, it was my fault too, and it's only water." He said trying to calm his new boss.

"Oh but you are soaked…Let me get you a new shirt."

"It's fine," Haku said as he pulled off the wet sweatshirt. Realizing his tank top was wet too he pulled took it off, only to hear a very loud gasp.
