Naruto waved to Iruka watching all the kids walking into the academy for the first time. Though some of his memories of the academy weren't the best, they weren't bad ones. Two kids waved at him and ran into the academy he smiled and walked over to Iruka.
Iruka smiled at the boy who used to be his student. He greeted those who entered for the first time and those who were entering again so they could continue to learn. Iruka looked up and saw the smiling blonde standing next to the tree and gave a smile. He then looked to his new charges and then to the kids who waved to the blonde. A young girl with long black hair ran up and said good morning to her new teacher. She was excited. The boy, with blonde hair, was shy but he smiled and soon was as active as his sister. He seemed to be a prankster and just needed to get out of the initial shyness to become outgoing. Sort of like his mother, Iruka thought solemnly.
Naruto walked over and said hello to Iruka. Iruka greeted the blonde back and hurried some kids to class.
"So another year of teaching ey, Iruka-sensei," Naruto joked.
"Yeah, more brats like you going to become ninja," Iruka laughed at Naruto's scowl.
"Aren't you getting a little old to be a teacher," he said to the man who was only in his mid thirties.
"How about Kakashi then wouldn't he be ancient." Iruka smiled and Naruto frowned. Damn loopholes.
"Iruka-sensei!" a cry yelled as a woman dashed into Naruto's view he felt something, he didn't know it, but it was something. The woman had long hair, which he always sort of liked, but she didn't notice him really.
"Iruka-sensei," the woman was a little out of breath as if she was running for her life. He gave a frown, ninja shouldn't be out of breath from a run around the city.
"Iruka-sensei, could you please give this to my kids," she said. Naruto's world sort of crashed, the woman had kids. How was that possible?
"Hinata-chan how are you out of breath?" Iruka asked. Hinata had kids! Naruto's mind was going for a whirl.
"I was training with Gai and Lee when I remembered that the kids' father would be taking them to school and would probably forget their lunches, looks like I was right." Iruka chuckled, Naruto was going to be in trouble, "Don't worry I'll take it to them," Iruka started to leave when he heard:
"Hinata! Your married! Who? When? How?" Hinata looked at Naruto incredulously.
"To you, Naruto. You're acting strange, what's wrong?" She place her hand on his head as if taking his temperature. He suddenly had flashbacks of everything. He chuckled and said it was his bad. His arm snaked its way around her waist and pulled her closer to him. She let out a squeak, one he loved to hear, and saw her give him a frown. He let out a laugh and went to give her a kiss.
Naruto woke up, with a cold sweat, what was with these dreams lately. They came and went as they please and made him feel out of sync with his normal patterns. Heck after the first dream he ran away from Hinata for about two weeks. Also why was it about the academy. Oh that's right Konohamaru was talking about how happy he was that he didn't have to go back this year and how Iruka was preparing for it. Strange how the mind works.
He gave a quick look at the clock 9:30. He let a small curse, he was late and Sakura would surely hit him for it. As he ran to the training grounds, he ran past the academy to say hello to Iruka. However he saw someone he didn't expect to see. Hyuuga Hinata was giving a hug to a small kid who had the brown-black hair and who ran to the academy. He slowed down to stop and ask a question.
"Hey Hinata, that your kid?" Immediately color rushed to her face and he felt a smile tug at his lips.
"N-no, h-he's my c-cousin attending the a-academy for the first time." She stuttered, not expecting him, "Gomen Naruto-kun, I have to go!" she immediately disappeared into some leaves and Naruto smacked his head.
"Why didn't I do that earlier!"
A/N: This one is for school starting soon…ewww.
