15| Songs that remind you of Naruhina

i. I'm never going down, I'm never giving up, I'm never gonna leave / Then say you like me.

When he pieced it together he had been surprised to say the least.

She liked him, no, like was such a half-hearted word to describe what she felt for him. She had told him herself, so that there'd be no mistranslations; she loved him back then when they were kids and she loved him now.

To say it had taken him by surprise was an understatement because all this time he brushed her affections as something done because he was a fellow comrade of the Hidden Leaf, but no, things were always different for her. She did all those things because she cared for him in ways that no one else had cared for him.

He was grateful for her.

So he wouldn't push those feelings of hers away and he wouldn't pretend he didn't hear them. Her message was clear enough, he understood without needing to decipher anything. And if she loved him then he wanted her to tell him, always.

Because those feelings of hers were precious to him so he'd fight tooth and nail to become someone in her life, someone important, he wouldn't give up until she breathed those words out once more.

And when she said those words once more this time he will look at her with the biggest smile and respond; I love you too.

ii. I can be the one / I'll be there with you through it all, even if saving you sends me to heaven.

Looking down at him lying on the ground she knows she's made the right choice.

She can hear her father calling her a fool in her head but she can't find herself to care. The boy laying on the ground, helpless and lost, has saved her more times than she can count on her fingers.

It's her turn to suck up the fear that resides in her and help him out.

After all, she claims she loves him unconditionally, does she not? It would only make sense to show that there's truth behind her words, that she wasn't in love with the boy because of his status or anything else. She would show everyone just how much this boy meant to her and then even he would have to take her words more seriously now.

If I love you then I'll save you.

Even if she wouldn't come out alive, even if she was injured to the point of now return she'd back up everything she's said up until this point in time. Her eyes activate and she looks at the enemy with anger in her eyes. He won't hurt her most precious person, not when she's around.

Consequences be damned.

iii. I can finally see that you're right there beside me / please don't let me go, I desperately need you

It had taken him years to figure it all out.

All those attempts at protecting him and he had been so blind about the meaning behind them. Now he had her confession in his hands and he wasn't going to let it go to waste, he wasn't going to push her away, he couldn't.

She changed him, she made him want to become better than he was yesterday. She was the one person who allowed him to cling to her when he felt like the world was slowly slipping from his grasp. She kept him near when he needed it most, when his mind threatened to allow the hatred to take over and she wasn't scared of him, she's never once been scared of him.

"I'll protect you."

Those words, he'll cling and cling to those words because in the end that's what he's been dying to hear. This time he isn't the one being strong and trying his best to save a friend from the darkness, this time he's the one being saved.

Someone cares about him so he won't to let her go. Not now, not ever.

iv. There's someone I've been missing, I think that they could be the better half of me / So I say to you, come home.

Waiting for him to return from long missions was never easy.

Being the major worry wart she was she was always coming up with new conclusions about what happened to him. She didn't want him to die out there, she couldn't have him die when she's finally got a hold of him.

She always imagines that someday he'll lose his will to fight and he'll lay on the ground after being beaten, something unlike him, but no less it plays and plays in her mind. A cry for help but there's no one around to help him and she can't imagine having news like that delivered to her.

Her eyes stay on the road before the gates to the village, her eyes are searching and searching. He promised to return around this time, no later than this, and she's going to take his word for it because not taking it will make her worry and conjure up many possibilities once more.

She shuts her eyes and tries to control her erratic heart, repeating in her head that he'll be home and everything will be alright like a mantra.

She hears the light crunch of the dirt and her eyes open quickly, sure enough there he is wearing a big smile as he walks, his hands placed behind his head as he says something to his teammates.

She clasps her hands together in joy and watches as he turns his head to meet her gaze. She finds that the smiles he gives her have always been her favorites and before she can recall what's going on he's running to her arms open wide.

She laughs when he picks her up and swings her around, claiming that 6 months was too long to be away from her.

"Welcome home, Naruto-kun."

v. When you try your best and you don't succeed / And I will try to fix you.

They knew they each came with different scars.

She carried the feeling of never being good enough for anything. Her father's constant demands had led her to believe that she would never amount too much. He would always make sure to point her flaws out and he always told her that she'd never make a good family head with a weak resolve as her own. Her younger sister had surpassed her before she had even had the chance to come further along in her skills, her father was never pleased with her and he always made sure she knew that small fact well.

He carried the feeling of loneliness, always having to be alone because no one dared to approach him when he was younger. They had pointed fingers and called him a demon, and they had told him that he would never amount to anything in this world. They had called him a nuisance and they had all shunned him, telling him that a child like himself was nothing but a danger to the village. They pushed him away before he even had the chance to show them that he wasn't as bad as they all claimed he was, that he was a normal human being.

Each one had always thought that one day they'd give up and allow themselves to become nothing but a past. Would people be regretful of their words then?

But things were much different from what they were years ago, somehow they managed to prove everyone wrong. She had went on to master her skills and show her father that with practice and perseverance she could succeed. He went on to surpass his teachers as well as his great father, the 4th. He saved the village and that's when he was noticed, when everyone finally understood that he was never a bad person.

However, they got that far because they had someone to support them. She had him and he had her, that's how it was now. She would never allow him to ever feel lonely or to ever feel shunned from the world. She saved him with her loving words and smiles, she was there when everyone else couldn't and wouldn't be there for him.

And he refused to allow her to feel useless or like she was worth nothing in this world. She was worth more than anyone could even count and he never failed to tell her that. Through actions he showed her that she was someone important, to him and to everyone else. Just like she had saved him, he did the same in turn and never once stopped fighting for her benefit.

They mended each other in ways no one else could and for that they were each grateful to each other. They couldn't even imagine life without the other now because then they're sure things wouldn't be like this. Things were different, he wasn't a lonely boy and she wasn't a failure anymore.

No, now they were Naruto and Hinata, they loved each other and that's all they could ever ask for.
