Hey guys I hope you actually like this story…well I guess you do if you read up to here. Btw I only put that show in last moment last time just because I like…well all the shows about animals really. So, anyone who watches thanks but anyways I probably won't put in anything like that again. Still anyways that is enough of me just rambling away. I mean I doubt to many people completely read these author notes anyways…maybe I should put a poll just to find out….

Oh, yea and I finally am catching up on my anime and I have to say the newest Naruto shippuden are turning out really good…though I still think Sasuke is a bratty dick. Though to tell you the truth it actually is kind of nice to be a few episodes behind just so that you don't need to wait for them. Because we all know how much that sucks.

Chapter 10

"Normal Talking"

"Normal Thinking"

"Demon Talking"

"Demon Thinking"

After Naruto left the rest of the matches came and went though none of them seemed as interesting after the threat that Naruto gave. So, they quickly set up the next rounds matches and began the time for the gennin to prepare knowing that Naruto would find out eventually seeing as his sensei was still watching. So, with that everyone left the arena to rest after their matches and to think about their future. Which in most of the Konoha gennin's case turned out to be going to the hospital to check up on their friends…especially Hinata.

+Hospital+

In the hospital as soon as Hinata was taken in she was put into the emergency room. And of course Naruto was there sitting right next to her room within minutes simply waiting for her to come out and hear the news. Course not many people wanted to be around him for too long seeing as the ki he was still leaking without even thinking about it was still intense. And of course the reason of his ki was due to the fact that he was angry at Neji for doing what he did and was already planning how to truly torture him. This fact alone brought such an eerie smile that it alone caused people to shy away from him. Though thankfully it didn't seem to invade the sealed medical room that he was in front off.

+Rest of gennin+

When they finally made it up to the floor that Hinata was on all of them immediately felt uneasy though they had no clue why.

"Man why the hell is there something that seems dangerous enough to make us uneasy?" Kiba who came back from his check up with minor injuries asked while Akamaru whined clearly scared. Course a nurse who was walking by with a clipboard decided to answer him.

"Well none of us besides those in the sealed off medical rooms really want to even be on this floor thanks to the brat siting by room 129." The nurse told them glaring in the direction of the room.

"What someone is causing this? How?" Ino asks the woman shocked. Though in the end their answer ended up coming from someone behind them which turned out to be Haku.

"Well due to Hinata being in that room he sat down there just to wait. Though apparently he somehow got pissed off, for this whole time he has been releasing ki and hasn't even lessened the amount of it at all. What happened to get him so mad?" Haku asks curiously.

"Well Hinata lost badly in her match against Neji. So bad in fact she seemed close to death. Though what really got this started was when Neji went for the kill even though the match was stopped. Now he was stopped of course but still Naruto gave him a threat so bad that even some of the people around us cringed in fear then left to come here apparently." Sakura told the girl who simply nodded her head.

"Well then that would explain the smile he has then." She told them confusing them. But instead of answering them verbally she simply brought them over to where Naruto was to see for themselves.

"Damn Naruto truly can be scary when he wants to be. I have really do have to remember not to piss him off." Kiba thought creeped out like the rest of them were when they found Naruto.

"Um, Naruto-kun how is Hinata doing in there?" Ino asks after partially getting over her shock. Course when she said this he finally was brought out of his crazed mindset which released all of the overwhelming ki from the area allowing all of the people around him except for Haku who was use to massive amounts of ki, breathe a sigh of relief.

"There has been no news on her health. All I know is that they have yet to come out at all since they began to heal her." Naruto told them clearly worried about her.

"Hey man don't worry. Hinata is strong enough to come out of this in no time. They just want to make sure they help her as much as they can, I mean come on she has to be almost completely healed already." Kiba told him trying to cheer him up and to get everyone in a bit of a better mood.

"…yeah you are probably right." Naruto mumbled though he didn't sound so sure. Course after that he simply just looked at the door blocking him from seeing how Hinata was doing. Course after that they all simply sat and talked a bit while waiting for their friend to come out.

+That Night+

In the end Hinata didn't come out of the emergency room for quite a while. But eventually their parents came and forced the kids to leave and get some sleep. Though Naruto had no one that really forced him to do that instead he had his sensei that asked him too and Haku hinted at him going home he still ignored them both and simply stayed there even though the hospital didn't want him too.

Course eventually Hinata came out of the emergency room and was moved into a regular room just to recover though still Naruto stayed right by her watching over her until finally he ended up falling asleep by her due to exhaustion.

=Next Morning=

Early in the morning Ino decided to go see how Hinata was seeing as she was still worried about her friend. Course now brought flowers that she grabbed from their families shop before she left. But when she got there she saw something that she didn't expect. For while she thought that everyone left when they were ordered too she was wrong. For there was Naruto sleeping with his head down on the bed Hinata was on clearly asleep.

"Aw, so he stayed here with her throughout the whole night? Man, HInata sure got lucky getting such a loyal boyfriend…but wait if I really wanted to I could be with him as well." She thought smiling slightly. Course after a few moments of just standing there she noticed that the morning sun rays that came through the rooms window and seemed to bother Hinata a bit. So, figuring that she was waking up Ino simply stood there and looked at the girl who within a few moments began to wake up extremely slow due to still having some medication in her system.

"Ugh" was all Hinata could quietly mumble out clearly not enjoying her slightly sedated and still sore body.

"Good morning sleeping beauty. Man you gave us such a scare." Ino told the girl then put the flowers down on a stand near the bed.

"Oh…" HInata answered feeling a bit upset.

"But don't worry Naruto-kun has already planned to get revenge for you seeing as he is fighting Neji right away in the next round." Ino told Hinata shocking the girl.

"W-w-what!?" Hinata asks shocked.

"Yea, he even threatened him to fate that made even the jonin shiver in fear. Man, Neji is a dead man for sure when Naruto gets his hands on him." Ino told her shaking her head.

"N-n-no. I have to stop N-naruto-kun. I mean even if he t-t-t….almost did t-that he is still family. I have to too Naruto before it is too late." Hinata told Ino shocking the girl.

"What even after he did and said all of that to you!?" Ino asks shocked only to get a nod in return. Course to this Ino just shook her head in disbelief. *sigh* "Fine, then try to explain that to him when he wakes up." Ino tells the girl which confused Hinata. "You mean you haven't notice yet? Hinata just look to your left side." She ended up telling the girl who did just that and saw what Ino was talking about.

"Huh, so he waited here for me to wake up. Did he stay up all night or something just for me? Man, I knew my Naruto-kun was truly the best man I could ever get. Maybe that is why he captured my heart almost as soon as I first saw him." HInata thought looking down at Naruto lovingly and then began to gently play with his blond hair with a small smile on her face.

"Hinata how did you get lucky enough to get a boyfriend that cares about you so much that he actually spends the entire day with you when you are in the hospital. I mean he never even left for food and stayed even after they tried to get us all out of the hospital. Not to mention the fact that he would probably do whatever you wanted him to if you asked." Ino told Hinata who only gave a small yeah as an answer. "So, you are going to share him with me right?" Ino then adds with a smirk that only increased when she heard the same thing happen again.

"Wait what?!" Hinata asks shocked when she finally fully heard Ino's question.

"Too late you already gave me an answer." Ino told the girl with a small smile then noticed that Naruto seemed to finally begin to come out of his exhaustion caused sleep. "I mean Naruto agrees with me right?" Ino asks the still partially asleep boy.

"Huh? Oh, yeah, whatever." Naruto told the girl then laid his back down to sleep some more.

"See, now that makes it official. I am now Naruto's newest girlfriend." Ino told Hinata happily.

"Wait, what?" Naruto asks seeing as that statement surprised him out of his tiredness.

"You heard me Naruto you just agreed to let me be your second girlfriend. And don't even say that can't happen because I already know all about your CRA." Ino told Naruto.

"But Ino we hardly know each other. So maybe you should try to get to know someone before you try to create a relationship." Naruto told her trying to get her to think about it a bit. Course this just made Ino look a bit annoyed.

"Fine but I already am eighty percent sure that you are exactly what I want in a guy just by the way you treat Hinata. But fine I will wait until you realize this…but you have to at least take me on a date to get to know each other then." Ino ordered Naruto. Course this just made him chuckle a bit.

"Well Ino never was known for hiding what she truly thinks." Naruto thought with a smile. "Fine but only if Hinata-chan agrees after all I don't want to do something my hime doesn't like." Naruto told her causing Ino to give Hinata a puppy dog look.

*sigh* "Fine but remember Ino I was the first girl so I am going to set up the rules. Which I will tell you later on. But for today let me just recover for a while." Hinata told Ino who nodded understanding watching as Hinata laid down again on the bed and let her head fall back onto the pillow. Course with that Naruto simply kissed her forehead and walked out of the room with Ino following soon after so that she could sleep in peace now that he was sure that she was safe.

+Outside of room+

"Well Naruto do you feel happy now that you know she is safe?" Ino asks the boy she was by curious.

"Yea, I really was worried about her for a while there but now that she is out of that danger zone I can finally not worry about her as much." Naruto told the girl only to see her smiling at him. "What?" he asks confused.

"Oh, it just make me happy to hear that although you can go for any girl in the village you still go for love instead of beauty…well you kind of got both with Hinata but that is not my point. What I am trying to say is that instead of you going and just getting any girl that you think looks good you actually go for the girls you care about. It is good to hear that you are such a good man. They are so rare in this world or so I am told." Ino tell s him which he really didn't know how to answer her statement so they just entered a comfortable silence as they walked to Naruto's favorite restaurant seeing as Naruto had not ate anything in basically a day and a half and he was starving.

+Ichiraku shop+

"Oy, Old man can I get six bowls of misu and pork ramen." Naruto asked his favorite cook who simply smiled at his long time loyal customer. Course Ino order a misu ramen as well seeing as she planned to simply enjoy some time with Naruto and get to know him before her and Hinata set up the ground rules.

So, while they waited for their food to be prepared they both told each other about themselves just to get a little bit of information on each other. Now of course this simply seemed like two friends talking seeing as Naruto refused to even try something that would be related to a relationship like kissing until they actually knew that there would be something between them rather than just physical attraction.

"Ha, Naruto-kun you truly know how to have both funny and serious moments don't you?" Ino asks happily laughing a bit while said boy was smiling.

"Well of course if I didn't know how to have fun then I just wouldn't even be myself anymore." Naruto told her still smiling happily. "But hey instead of laughing at me shouldn't you be laughing at the how many time miss always full of energy ended up sleeping at her parents shop?" Naruto teasingly asks the girl causing her to blush out of embarrassment. Course this only lasted for a few moments until they both stared laughing at the others expense just remembering the past and reviewing the present. Still when Ayame saw how close Naruto and Ino were getting she was thoroughly confused.

"Hey why is Naruto on a date with that blond I thought that Hinata already took Naruto from me…not that I had him anyways. But still cheating is NOT acceptable!" Ayame thought annoyed and decided to talk to them when she brought over their ramen.

"Thank you Ayame-nee san" Naruto happily told the waiter that he treated as a sister for most of his life.

"You're welcome Naruto-kun. Though can I ask you something quickly?" Ayame asks her secret crush.

"Yeah what is it?"

"Well you are dating Hinata right?"

"Yeah…"

"So, does that mean you are cheating or something?" She asks deciding that she was going to get her answers once and for all. Course this did make Naruto think seeing as technically he was cheating on her; it is just required that he does thanks to the law.

"Well…sadly I guess I am… but –" Naruto began to tell her but didn't actually get a chance.

"How dare you cheat on Hinata, or any girl for that matter Naruto! Why if I didn't like you like family I would kill you for even putting a girl through that! But I am still going to-" she yelled at him angrily until she was stopped by a yell.

"Naruto-kun isn't cheating! He just thinks he is seeing as that rule he was put under forces him too." Ino tells Ayame surprising the girl with the information and Naruto with how fast she came to his defense .

"What?" Ayame asks confused yet again.

"You see Naruto was..well will be put under the CRA law meaning that he has to have more than wife. So, he kind of has to have more than one girlfriend and we all know it." Ino told the now curious girl.

"All? How many people is Naruto dating?" she asks both curious and to see if she still had a chance.

"Well right now just Hinata and me but I bet there are several others that will want to join when they hear the news. Especially since he treats his girlfriends like princesses no matter what." Ino told Ayame smiling a bit seeing as she was all ready to get treated the same way Hinata was; protectiveness and all. Still after she said this the only noise in the building was Ayame's father cooking and Naruto eating.

"Wait so if he can have multiple girls then I still have a chance right?" Ayame thought happily looking over at the blond that caught her attention. "But does he like me like that? I mean he treats me like a sister every time he see me. Will he be willing to change that to seeing me as a lover? Man so many questions. Why did the guy that stole my heart have to be so confusing?...Well I guess it was what I asked for when I fell in love with the 'the most unpredictable ninja in Konoha'" Ayame thought smiling a bit more.

"Hey Ayame why are you staring at me?" Naruto asks the girl when she got out of her zoning out. Course when she saw him looking at her confused she instantly realized that she was caught staring at him.

"N-n-no reason Naruto-kun. I was just…thinking for a bit." Ayame told him quickly.

"Oh, about what?" Naruto asked even more curious.

"Um, just about a um, new recipe I wanted to try using." She quickly told him happy that she thought of a believable lie.

"Oh, great well when you finally get it ready please let me be one of the first to try it." Naruto begged her already drooling a bit at the thought of a brand new ramen flavor seeing as he assumed she would be making ramen.

Course this just made her laugh a bit before she promised she would then quickly went back to bringing in more of Naruto's ramen order after a quick love filled glance. Now Naruto missed this but Ino didn't but didn't say anything and simply ate a bit more of her ramen. "looks like I will have to take someone with me to talk with Hinata." She though as she did. Course after that both of them simply continued to enjoy their time talking with Ayame joining in several times until they finally decided to go their own separate ways.

=Next day=

Naruto was walking quickly over to the hospital after meeting his team where they were quickly released after Kakashi told Sasuke that he was going to be training him and that Naruto was going to be trained by someone named Ebisu. But after a quick love filled meeting she had to be checked up on so he had to say good-bye to her for a while and instead began to train.

+Gaara+

Gaara was walking around still Konoha scaring everyone with the amount of Ki that he never stopped pumping out when he finally saw Naruto running to the hospital which made him smile.

"Only one month until I can kill you blonde. I will make sure mother gets as much of your blood as possible. For mother seems to want you more than anyone else in this village." He thought with his sand slowly moving around him.

Yea so I am done for today but really I think I am just doing better with the fighting moments in this story rather than the touching. So, I suppose I will have to work on that. But anyways I plan on taking a break for Christmas but I may post something if I just have a day to decide to write. But anyways guys thanks for reading this far and sorry the way some of my chapters seem to be lately. I guess I really need this break just to start fresh. Anyways Ja Ne.
