Chapter 9 – Hinatas Words
Naruto was walking around the village in his casual clothes. Without any weapons on him, no headband, no gloves, no bandages and no jacket. He was just wearing his dark orange t-shirt, over the knee dark blue shorts and his shinobi sandals.
''Naruto-kun.'' A pink-haired girl called out. He turned his head and smiled, as he waved at her. She approached him. ''Want to go with me to visit Lee-san?'' She asked.
''Of course, can we go to Hinata-san and Kiba-san as well?'' He answered and she nodded. ''Should we get some flowers first?'' She nodded once again.
They walked together to the Yamanaka flower shop and walked in. Ino greeted Naruto rather happily. ''NARUTO-KUN!'' She shrieked. He waved and smiled. ''What can I do for you? Buying flowers for a special girl or something?'' She blinked fast to show off her eyelashes.
''One of them is a girl, yes. Haruno-san and I are going to visit Rock-san, Hinata-san and Kiba-san, so I thought about buying some flowers for them.'' He took a flower called fleur-de-lis. ''This flower should be the symbol of flame and determination, am I right?'' Ino nodded in respond, and he smiled as he took one of them.
''Freesia… for innocence and thoughtfulness?'' Ino nodded once again, and he took one of those. ''A snowdrop, symbolizing hope…'' Another pair was taken. Sakura took the exact same as he did and walked over to pay. ''I'll pay.'' He offered.
''What, no. I can pay.'' She quickly stated.
''It's alright, I can do it.'' And so he did. ''See you, Yamanaka-san.'' He waved as he walked out with Sakura.
They walked together to the hospital, but stopped at the receptionist. ''We're here to visit Lee-san, Hinata-san and Kiba.'' Sakura informed the receptionist, and she nodded as she told her the room numbers. They walked first off to Lee's room. Naruto knocked on the door, and when there was no answer, he just opened it.
''Rock-san, are you awake?'' He asked, but saw that there was no one there. ''W-Where is he?'' He stuttered.
''589… 590…'' a sound came from outside. Naruto and Sakura walked to the window and looked down, only to see Lee training.
''Rock-san…'' Naruto muttered. ''Come on, Haruno-san.'' He demanded as they both jumped out of the window, and down to Lee. ''Rock-san… I've got to say that I admire you right now.'' Lee stopped counting on '596'.
''Y-You do?'' He asked in disbelief.
Naruto nodded in respond, and took out the fleur-de-lis. ''It symbolizes flame and determination. You're really admirable, for your hard work. But I think you should rest now.''
Lee nodded and jumped up. ''I'll be out in about two days. I'll be there to see your fight in a month.'' He reassured.
''Great, I want you to see when I smash Hyuga-sans face in.'' Naruto laughed.
''Naruto-kun, shouldn't you be training, by the way?'' Sakura asked.
''I should be… but I don't have a sensei yet. After this, I'll be going to the hot springs to relax a little, then I'll find a sensei.'' He replied.
Ten minutes into the visit and they were done there. ''Thank you for the visit Naruto-kun, Sakura-san.'' Lee said as he smiled at his two friends.
''You're welcome Rock-san.'' Naruto replied.
''Anytime Lee-san.'' She smiled.
''Next stop, Kiba-san.'' Naruto proclaimed and they waved goodbye to Lee.
At the door to Kibas room they heard a loud…
''COME ON AKAMARU, WE'LL FANG THE DOCTORS ASS!'' A boy yelled.
''INUZUKA-SAN, PLEASE SIT STILL, this is only a shot, it won't hurt at all.'' Another vice proclaimed.
Naruto and Sakura sweat dropped as they opened the door. Kiba was currently standing on his bed, with the nurse… who he assumed was a doctor… trying to calm him down, to give him the shot. It didn't work… ''GO AWAY! I'LL NEVER LET YOU GIVE ME THAT SHOT!'' He yelled.
''Why does he even need a shot?'' Sakura asked.
''Painkillers maybe.'' Naruto replied.
''But he looks all better…'' She trailed off when Kiba joined their conversation.
''SAY THAT TO HER! Oh… Hey Naruto, buddy, Sakura… girl.'' He smiled and waved at them.
Akamaru yapped in greetings, and Naruto and Sakura gave Kiba the flowers. The visit continued for like ten minutes again, when they had to leave because of the nurse that had to give him his shot. Of course Kiba growled in protest, and began throwing out forty insults he could think of on the spot.
''Now to Hinata-sans room, ne Naruto-kun… Are you nervous of how she will react?'' Sakura asked, as she blushed.
''I-I… um…'' of course he was nervous. ''O-Of course I'm n-nervous…'' He stuttered out. They were walking towards Hinatas room, when they stopped on the track. ''I'm kind of thirsty… I'll go get us something to drink…'' He offered, and she nodded.
They went down to the cafeteria to buy something to drink, and take a little break from the boring hospital room. ''What do you want?'' He asked her, when they reached the cafeteria.
''I'll just have some green tea.'' She replied, and smiled.
They went up to order the drinks, ''Haruno-san, could you go find us a table or something?'' He asked. ''Two green tea please.''
Sakura had already found them a table. She didn't really know why they had to stop right now. She guessed that he probably wanted to talk about his Hinata problem. She sighed. He came over to her with two objects in his hands, and she smiled. ''I guess you want to talk about it.'' She assumed.
''I want to talk about what?'' He did his best on not to sound too nervous.
''Do you want to talk about your Hinata situation?''
''Ah… um… it's just… is it normal to be… afraid of rejection…?'' He hesitantly asked.
She furrowed her eyebrows. ''Naruto-kun, its normal for everyone to be afraid of rejection. In your case, you're afraid of her reaction to the kiss, am I right.'' He nodded in respond. ''Then you'll have to suck it up, and be a man.'' Too blunt.
''T-That was too blunt, an answer…'' He replied.
''Get over it.'' Sakura gave him her innocent eyes, as he sighed in depression. ''Oh come on, don't be like that. Soon you'll be fighting that Neji guy, and you're going to win because you are Uzumaki Naruto-kun.'' A giggle interrupted them, and they looked to find Ino and Shikamaru. ''Hey guys.'' Sakura smiled.
''Ah, Shikamaru-san, Yamanaka-san, what a pleasant surprise.'' Naruto politely stated.
''PLEASANT MY ASS! THEY TOTALLY INTERRUPTED OUR MOMENT TOGETHER!'' Inner Sakura screamed.
''Naruto-kun, forehead-girl… What are you guys doing here?'' Ino asked innocently.
''I should be asking that to you, Ino-pig. We're here to visit Lee-san, Hinata-san and Kiba… like I told you this morning, idiot.'' Sakura replied. ''I mean, come on, we bought some flowers from you too!''
''FOREHEAD!'' Ino hissed.
''INO-PIG!'' Sakura glared.
''Troublesome women.'' Shikamaru muttered, as he sighed in unison with Naruto. ''Naruto, you guys still have flowers left. Who didn't you guys visit yet?'' He smirked when he saw his blush. ''Hinata, ne?''
Naruto sighed. ''That obvious? I just needed some time to talk…'' He muttered.
''Why, women are just troublesome.'' Ino and Sakura glared at Shikamaru, at his statement. ''Don't look at me like that. You always get too emotional, you have mood swings, always trying to look good, constantly going on diets, not even caring about that guys don't find bones attractive… do I have to go on?'' 'Troublesome… I had to say all that. Troublesome women.
Naruto chuckled. ''As a kunoichi, you shouldn't go on diets. All the calories you take from food, easily wore off, by all the training. The calories that you don't train off, keeps you alive for most parts.'' He smiled at the two girls.
''Naruto-kun… You're so smart.'' Ino said sparkling.
''INO-PIG! DON'T HIT ON HIM, HE JUST KISSED HINATA-SAN!'' Sakura shouted, and Naruto blushed.
''About that… why are you guys here?'' He asked.
''Here to visit Chouji. He overate at the barbeque shop, and now we're here to visit him. We even brought some fruits just to tease him.'' Shikamaru replied.
''Hm. Well, we better get going, Haruno-san, we still have one visit left.'' Naruto said. 'It's weird… I haven't been in contact with Kurama-nii in a long period of time.' He thought. 'Kurama-nii…? Kurama-nii-san? KURAMA, WAKE THE HELL UP!' He decided to leave the matter for another time.
Naruto and Sakura left Shikamaru and Ino, and walked towards Hinatas room. Naruto was taking heavy breaths, as they walked. Sakura noticed this and tried to comfort him all the way to Hinata. When they finally was at the door to Hinatas room, his breathing became heavier and heavier. ''I-I don't think I can do t-this…'' He muttered.
''Suck it up, chicken.'' Sakura teased.
''B-but…''
''HINATA-SAN!'' Sakura interrupted as she walked into the room without knocking. ''Oh, Shino, Kiba… Kiba?'' She repeated. ''What are you doing here, shouldn't you be in bed?''
''HA! Like Naruto is so strong to have me bound to a bed. HAHAHA! NEVER!'' He determinedly said. ''It took you your time to come over.'' He looked at Naruto, who looked nervous.
''Here you go Hinata-san, two freesias.'' Sakura took the freesia out of Narutos hand, and sat it in the vase, where others had come to put their flowers for her. ''Now, how are you Hinata-san?''
''I-I'm fine, thank you… Sakura-san.'' She stuttered, and Narutos heart began to beat faster.
Their eyes met and Shino noticed this. ''Kiba, Sakura… maybe we should let them be for a while.'' He suggested.
''Good idea.'' Sakura agreed.
''You're the man Shino.'' Kiba quickly said. Akamaru barked in agreement.
They walked out of the room, leaving the two Konoha-nins to be. ''U-Um…'' Naruto stuttered. ''I-I…''
''I know w-why you kissed m-me, Naruto-kun.'' She silently informed.
''Y-You do?'' His eyes widened… maybe it was time…
''Y-Yeah.'' His heartbeat became faster and faster. ''It was for me, not to feel the pain.'' His heartbeat stopped going fast at that, was she really that dense? Or maybe… she didn't want it to be out of love… ''And I-I thank you for that, Naruto-kun. But shouldn't you b-be out t-training?'' She asked.
''Oh… y-yeah…'' He was purposely sad about the fact that she didn't know what that kiss also meant, but he just shrugged it off. He had a match to win, and train he should! ''I'll be fighting Hyuga-san in the first match. I've always wanted to go up against a noble clan. Well, other than the Uchihas.'' He smiled at her. ''I have to go. See you, Hinata-san.'' He left the room.
''How did it go? Did you kiss again? KYAA, YOU DID, DIDN'T YOU?'' Sakura went fan girlishly.
Naruto looked away, with a frown on his face. ''No… you can go in now, I have to find a sensei to train me.'' His saddened face, said it all. The conversation didn't go that well.
'I have to find a sensei… but first, some time to relax. TO THE HOT SPRINGS!' And to the hot springs he went…
He walked into the hot springs and looked at the hot steaming water. He sighed. 'I'll have to talk to Hokage-Jiji after this. I can't contact Kurama-nii. Maybe it has something to do with that seal, the snake-bastard put on me. This is so troublesome…' He stopped his thinking for a moment. 'I sound like Shikamaru-san…' Suddenly, Naruto heard a perverted giggle, and he looked for the source.
Walking over to the source, he found a man with white, long hair, tied in a ponytail. ''Excuse me, Oji-san…'' Naruto started, but the man just ignored him. ''Oji-san…'' No reply. He looked around and found a tree full of so many lovely leaves. ''WIND STYLE; SLICING LEAVES!''The leaves individually began to spin really fast, as shurikens and aimed themselves for the pervert.
The pervert finally looked around, only to see three leaves coming at him. ''GAARG!'' He yelled out, as he dodged the three leaves. ''WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR, BRAT!'' He pointed accusingly at Naruto, who just looked dumbfounded on the man.
''Oji-san… you should have more respect for women.'' Naruto bluntly said.
''You're too blunt, brat.''
''So I've heard.''
''Who are you, brat. You have an interesting ability.'' The peeping-tom asked.
''Uzumaki Naruto. And you are?''
''You don't know who I am? I'll take the short version… I AM THE GREATEST OF ALL, THE TOAD SANNIN, ONE OF THE LEGENDARY THREE, JIRAYA-SAMA!'' He yelled out.
''Um… Jiraya-san… I didn't imagine you as a pervert…''
''I'm no pervert.'' Naruto looked wondering at him. ''I'm a super pervert.'' He face faulted.
'Did he just… admit to be a pervert… sorry, super pervert?' Naruto shrugged it off. 'This is a great opportunity! I could get trained by one of the three legendary sannins!' He smiled at Jiraya, ''Jiraya-san… I'm looking for a person, who can train me for the Chunin finals, I'm up against a prodigy, so I could use some help.''
''No can do, kid.''
''Eh… why not?''
''You're too… stupid looking.''
Naruto glared at him. Stupid looking? That wasn't even a reason! ''WIND STYLE; LEAF KANON!'' The leaves formed to blue glowing balls, as they found their way towards the Sannin. Naruto smirked at his attack. The Sannin was running around in panic for the balls. ''Train me.''
''Alright… alright… IF…!'' Oh no…
''If what?''
''IF YOU CAN FIND THE RIGHT MATERIAL! Take off your shirt.''
''EH? ARE YOU A CHILD-TOUCHER?''
''NO, I HAVE TO SEE SOMETHING!''
''A-alright… but keep a distance please…'' He took off his shirt, as he blushed in disbelief that he was showing this man his upper body. ''Stop staring you pervert.''
''Hm… try to mold some chakra.''
Naruto did as told, and molded some chakra. 'I'd like to use my chakra to beat the crap out of him…' A seal became visible on his stomach, and Jiraya took a closer look.
'So he is, Minatos child… He looks just like him. The seal however, looks broken, of some sort. But at the same time it looks okay. The two out slipping entrances have been 'repaired'. It's some weird pattern; I don't even think it's a seal.' He moved back and saw something that shocked him, the cursed seal. 'OROCHIMARU!'
''Oi, Jiraya-san… when are you done, eye-raping me?''
'E-Eye-raping him…? I'll kill him before he knows of it.' Jiraya thought. ''You can take your shirt on again.'' And so he did. ''I'll take you in as my apprentice… you seem as a strong kid.''
''I am. I'm a prodigy. The smartest since the Fourth Hokage.''
''Too blunt, brat, too blunt.''
''So I've heard.''
''Hm, I'm sure you have. Anyways, let's get started, there's only one month, if I'm right.''
''Yeah.'' Naruto nodded.
''Oh… let's have fun then. I'll start with a chakra control exercise.''
''I already did the tree exercise. How many others are there?''
''The one I'll be teaching you is the water exercise. After that I'll give you what I give every one of my apprentices… meaning you and the Fourth Hokage… It's a summoning contract, you'll be signing your name in blood, and you'll be able to summon a toad.''
''You've been teaching the Fourth?'' Naruto asked in disbelief.
''OF COURSE I DID! What do they teach you brats in the academy, geez.''
''A lot of stuff.''
''Too blunt…''
Naruto smiled.
''Let's get this over with, Naruto.'' Jiraya smiled.
An hour later and Naruto was still on with the water walking…
He was panting heavily as he stood there on the water... well almost. He was currently trying to hold his balance. ''I-I didn't know it would be this hard!'' He groaned.
''BWUHAHAHAHA! That's just too bad, Naruto… my training is a hundred times harder than that!'' Jiraya teased.
''GARGH!'' Naruto yelled out. 'I'll kill that damn pervert! I won't let him live, not today, not ever!'
