Chapter 9

Feeling the sunlight in her eyes Hinata stirred. And turned on her pillow...that was to warm and harder than her usual pillow. Suddenly realising she was not in her bed. Or any bed for that matter. She opened her eyes and blinked from the sudden light. Sitting up slightly she felt something slip off her shoulder's. Looking down she saw Naruto's jacket and looked behind her to Naruto who was sleeping with his head right back against his couch. Holding back a squeak she quickly checked her clothes and tried to run her fingers through her hair. Slowly she sat herself upright and went to go freshen herself up in the bathroom when she felt a hand grip her wrist.

"Don't go." Turning to a very awake Naruto she smiled at his messy morning hair.

"I was just going to the bathroom." She said shyly.

"Oh." Naruto blushed and quickly let go on her wrist. "Um sorry." Naruto had felt the warmth leave him and had woken up with the sudden fear of loosing her. Hearing her lock his bathroom door he walked into his kitchen and boiled the kettle needing a strong coffee. Getting out 2 mugs he added coffee and sugar for himself and paused at Hinata's.

"Tea one sugar please." She answered his unasked question, settling herself on one of his bar stools at his breakfast bar. Sitting beside one another with their drinks, they drank their much needed source of caffeine.

"Do you have any plans for today?" Naruto asked.

"Oh. Well it's Sunday so it's tradition that we eat as a family. Me, Hanabi and my father. But, you can come if you want? I mean if you have no other plans."

"Will I not be in the way? I mean if its tradition I don't wonna..." Hinata placed a hand on his.

"Your always welcome at our family meals Naruto-Kun." Naruto looked down at their hands and smiled. After Naruto had a shower and wore much more presentable and clean clothes, the two walked through the streets holding hands towards Hinata's home.

Many of the villagers noticed how happy the two looked, commenting on what a perfect couple they made. Some even noticed how Hinata was still wearing her dress from yesterday rumours spread like wild fire in Konoha. And it wasn't long until Ino heard the gossip. Which of course she conveyed to all their friends as quick as she could.

Hinata and Naruto were totally oblivious to the gossip about them. Lost in their own world. Finally arriving at the Hyuga compound they stepped into the mansion together.

"Are you sure your family wont mind me being here?" Naruto asked nervously. Hinata smiled at his worried face and led him to the family's music room.

"Stay here, I'll go inform father and the chef that your our guest and I need to freshen up." She blushed. Naruto nodded watching her leave. Looking around the room Naruto gulped nervously. The room was huge, definitely bigger than his whole apartment alone. In one corner was a sleek and shiny black grand piano, scattered all around the room were guitars, a violin and even a harp.

"I guess this is why it's called music room." He spoke to himself.

"Hello." A small voice came from behind him, turning he took in a young girl who looked just like Hinata, only younger and more harsher. "I'm Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister." She smirked and walked in to the room.

"Er hi. I'm-"

"I know who you are. Your the guy my sister idolises and made her strong."

"Er." Naruto blushed and placed a hand behind to his neck rubbing it nervously.

"So your coming to our family meal I hear." Hanabi walked in to the room and settled herself on one of the couches that was in front of a fire place Naruto hadn't even noticed. Although how he didn't notice wad beyond him, the thing was huge and grand, clearly showing some of the wealth the Hyuga clan held. Following Hanabi he sat on a chair. Leaning his elbows on his knees he began to tap his fingers together.

"So do you like my sister?" Naruto stopped and looked at the young Hyuga.

"Er, well I've always liked Hinata no one can not like her she's-"

"Not like that Uzumaki." Hanabi looked at him like he knew exactly what she meant.

"Hanabi, stop interrogating our guest." Hinata said at the double doors. Sighing in relief Naruto stood and turned to her voice. Turning around he was certain his eyes nearly jumped out of the sockets and his jaw drop to the floor. She was wearing a high waisted pleated navy skirt with a lace pattern on the bottom and a cream shirt which had see through long sleeves that came down to the middle of her cleavage. Showing off the curves of her body beautifully.

"Do I have something on me?" Hinata asked looking down at her outfit suddenly feeling flustered.

"What? No no. You look. I mean. Well you look amazing." Nartuto stuttered kicking himself on the inside hearing Hanabi giggle next to him. Hanabi walked to her sister and stood next to her facing the door.

"I think you nearly gave him heart attack." She giggled again at Hinata's blushing face and left the room, closing the door behind her. Hinata walked over to Naruto and sat where Hanabi had been. Naruto sat beside her and held her hand.

"What did your father say about me being here."

"Oh. He's happy he said he wanted to get to know you more."

"Hey can you play these instruments?" He asked trying not to read to much into why Hiashi Hyuga had a sudden interest in him.

"I can play most of them but not very well. How about you?"

"Um Jiraiya taught me to play the guitar. I have one at home that I play, although not anything as nice as that one." She said, turning around to admire the beautiful guitar that was on it's own stand.

"Play something for me?" Hinata asked smiling widely. Naruto laughed nervously.

"I've never played in front of anyone before."

"Ok how about a deal." Hinata said standing up and grabbing the guitar. "You play me a song now and this guitar is yours to keep." Stepping up from the couch he stood in front of Hinata and laughed at her smile knowing she had caught him already. Rolling her eyes she pushed the guitar in front of him.

"You know you want it." She wiggled the guitar and laughed.

"Fine, but only if I get to hear you play too." With a slight blush, she agreed. She wanted to hear Naruto play more than anything. Naruto placed the guitar strap over his one shoulder and got himself comfortable.

"Ok don't expect anything spectacular or anything."

Naruto began to play a song that had jumped to mind. Through the introduction he felt himself draw into the music, forgetting his surrounding he began to sing, trading yesterday- May I:

There you stand, opened heart, opened doors,
Full of life with a world that's wanting more.
But I can see when the lights start to fade,
The day is done and your smile, has gone away.

Let me raise you up,
Let me be your love.

May I hold you, as you fall to sleep?
When the world is closing in,
And you can't breathe here.
May I love you, may I be your shield?
When no one can be found.
May I lay you down?

All I want is to keep you safe, from the cold.
To give you all that your heart needs the most.

Let me raise you up,
Let me be your love.

May I hold you, as you fall to sleep?
When the world is closing in,
And you can't breathe here.
May I love you, may I be your shield?
When no one can be found,
May I lay you down?

All that's made me, is all worth trading,
Just to have one moment with you.
So I will let go, all that I know,
Knowing that you're here with me.
For your love is changing me.

May I hold you, as you fall to sleep?
When the world is closing in,
And you can't breathe.
May I love you, may I be your shield?
When no one can be found,
May I lay you down.

Naruto ended the song that in so many ways made him think of Hinata and looked up to her face. Hinata was awestruck, not only had he played the most beautiful song he had sang! Without even realising she was crying.

"Was I that bad I made you cry?" He laughed nervously. Hinata chuckled and quickly wiped away her tears.

"No, no. You were great. You should let people hear you more." Naruto blushed at her compliment and shook his head. Looking at the immaculate guitar in his hands longingly. "It's your now." Hinata walked up to him and placed a hand over his. They looked in to each others eyes feeling a pull bringing them closer together. *Cough *Cough. Suddenly startled Hinata and Naruto looked towards the doors and saw Hiashi standing there watching the pair. Naruto and Hinata quickly jumped apart.

"Dinner is nearly be ready." He stated in a montone voice, trying to be stern. Inside however he was smiling, finally seeing his eldest daughter happy. Naruto placed the guitar back on its stand and followed Hinata and Hiashi through their family home. He noticed there was pictures on the wall, but there was none of the family. They were all art. Finally entering the family dining room he stood nervously seeing the grand room. The room was decorated with a light blue wallpaper with a silver pattern on it. In the middle was the shiniest table he had ever seen. He had no doubt he would have been able to see his reflection in it. Hinata sat herself to her fathers left, as Hiashi sat at the head of the table. Hanabi left the seat to Hiashi's right and sat herself next to, what would be, Naruto's chair. Naruto sat in his chair and looked down at his place mat. There was three different forks and knives and two different wine glasses. Looking up at Hinata with desperation, he watched as she placed her cloth napkin on her lap so copied her.

"So Naruto-Sama, your dream is to become our Hokage still?" Hiashi asked trying to make small talk whilst Naruto watched the servants fill up his two glasses one with white wine and the other with water.

"Huh? Oh. Oh, yes. I will definitely become Hokage someday." He answered looking to Hinata with a knowing smile. They carried on their polite conversation throughout their starters and main course. Naruto had to watch Hinata each time to make sure he was using the right knife and fork. He noticed if he did something wrong Hinata would discreetly cough and show him where he was going wrong whist taking a sip of her water so Hiashi wouldn't notice.

"Hinata, are you ill?" He asked after about her tenth cough.

"Oh no...I mean...Yes. My throat is feeling a little dry this evening father." She blushed. When dessert arrived Naruto could feel his cheeks blushing from the amount of alcohol he had drank, obviously not use to drinking wine. They had had at least a glass per each course. Naruto brought his water glass to his lips.

"So are the two of you dating now?" Hiashi asked out of the blue causing Naruto to suddenly intake and start coughing choking on his water. Trying not to spit it out all over Hinata he quickly tried to swallow causing his eyes to water instantly. Hinabi quickly brought her napkin to her lips stiffening her giggles whilst looking at her father knowing that he had been waiting for the precise moment to ask this question. Hinata blushed and started to stutter. Once Naruto was finally able to breath he looked at Hiashi who sat looking at him.

"If, If that's ok with you Hyuga-Sama, I would very much like to date your daughter?"

"And where will all this dating be heading? How long do you intend to date before turning your relationship into something more serious?"

"Father!" Hinata squealed. Feeling her cheeks, neck and anywhere that was visible go red.

"Well the boy needs to know I've turned away many suitors asking for your hand in marriage. I can't keep them away forever."

"Stop teasing them father." Hanabi chuckled shaking her head at their mischievous father. Hiashi smiled and carried on eating his pudding. After their meal Naruto followed Hinata to the music room again. Hiashi and Hanabi sat on the couch near the fire place and spoke in hushed voices. Hinata sat herself at the grand piano and patted her hand for Naruto to come and sit next to her.

"Play a relaxing song Hinata?" Hiashi asked seeing Hinata sat at her piano, for the first time in a long time. Hinata blushed and began to play her fathers favourite piece of music called, Sayonara No Natsu. Whilst playing she spoke in a whisper to Naruto.

"You did very well at dinner."

"I got it wrong a lot thought." He chuckled whilst watching her hands play the most beautiful music. "I don't know what I would of done without you." He smiled still listening to her play.

"Well you wouldn't be in this mess if it weren't for me."

"Actually I'm really liking it. I've never had a meal as a family before." Hinata looked up to his eyes suddenly seeing sadness in them and nudged him with her shoulder. He looked in to her eyes, whilst she still played and gave her a small smile. He watched as Hinata carried on playing the music and slowly start to play another tune altogether. Without even realising it Hinata began to play her mother's favourite tune of Giovanni Marraid- Beautiful Swans. She lost herself in the music, remembering when her mother had taught her to play the piano and as a little girl watching in awe her mother playing this piece. Looking up when she finished the last note, she noticed her father looking at her looking at her.

"I think I will retire to my study now." He coughed as his voice hitched with emotion. "Keep playing Hinata, its nice to have the house filled with music again." They two sister watched as their father left through the double doors.

"I thought you said you didn't play well?" Naruto asked.

"Oh I can only play a few pieces well. And I didn't play those at all well." She blushed.

"You call that not well?" Naruto yawned and looked out the window to see the night sky. Widening his eyes he wondered where had the time gone?

"You should probably go home and sleep." She nudge him gently with her shoulder again.

"Yes well we neither got a lot of sleep last night did we? You should get some sleep too."

"Oh really?" Hanabi looked at her older sister whist smirking, reading into Naruto's sentence.

"No. Hanabi. He didn't mean...He didn't.." Hinata was flustered her face burning up again.

"Mmmmm I'm sure. Well goodnight Naruto Uzumaki, it was nice to finally meet you." Hanabi said turning the room and leaving. Naruto stood to leave as well.

"So was this our third date?" He asked, smiling at Hinata as they walked hand in hand to the front door.

"I think it was more a way for my family to embarrass me." She blushed.

"I enjoyed it." He assured her squeezing her hand lightly in his. Now reaching the door Hinata, opened the grand wooden door for him and felt the night breeze on her face. Naruto moved her hair behind one ear, seeing the wind blow it into her face. Taking a step towards her he felt the soft skin on her cheek. Hinata was caught in his blue eyes, closing the gap between them both she stood on tip toes. Placing her hands on the sides of his face gently stroking his whisker marks. Naruto drew in a breath and gingerly kissed her soft lips. Something he had been wanting to do since last night. Pulling back slowly, he didn't want to go to far with the kiss. He was afraid Hiashi was watching. He rested his fore head against hers.

"Goodnight Hinata-chan." He whispered with his eyes still closed.

"Goodnight Naruto-Kun." She whispered back. Feeling him move, she watched as he walked out the Hyuga gates and out of sight.
