With Naruto
Naruto was still a little annoyed that he had to move all of his stuff to a new place and stay with Haku, but he thought that it was his fault because he changed history. He then summoned a dozen clones and moved his things to the new address in 1 go.
He finally got to the new place and the door was open. He took a look inside and saw how much space there was. There were 2 bedrooms, 1 guest room, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and a dining room. Naruto went inside to see Haku in normal clothes with his hair down. He'd been arranging the furniture for a while now.
"Hey, Haku." Naruto said aloud.
Haku looked up and saw all the Naruto clones. "Oh hey there, Naruto, I'm just moving some furniture. Uh, you can choose which room you want." Haku said with a smile.
"Cool." Naruto said with a smile.
It took about an hour to get everything settled, but they were finally done. All of a sudden, there was a knock on the front door.
"It's open." Naruto said.
Then, Hinata came through the door. "H-hello N-Naruto, I h-heard that you m-moved h-here. I brought y-you th-this." she said while presenting a plant. Apparently, Kakashi had told Kurenai and Asuma that Naruto was moving today.
"Oh, thanks! That'll go great by the window!" Naruto said enthusiastically.
Then, Haku came out from the bathroom. "Oh. Hello. I didn't know that we had company, Naruto." Haku said while noticing Hinata.
Hinata looked at Haku, then at Naruto. Then she looked at Haku again, and then looked at Naruto. Her face then got really red, but not out shyness. It was out of anger.
Naruto turned when he felt killer intent. He saw Hinata boiling with anger. This was a part of her that he'd never seen. "Wh-what's wrong, H-Hinata?" he said while stuttering.
Hinata couldn't utter any words. Her face was so red that you could see steam coming out of her ears. She just pointed at the two of them being together and obviously made it look like Haku and Naruto were dating.
Haku chuckled a little at the misled Hinata and had a feeling he knew what was causing the misunderstanding. "Um, Hinata?" Haku said getting her attention. Hinata then aimed her killer intent at Haku and Haku dropped a little sweat. "You should know that I'm a boy."
Hinata's face then dropped. Tears were forming in the corner of her eyes. This seemed to be worse than finding out that he was cheating on her.
"H-Hinata?! Why are you crying?!" Naruto asked hysterically.
Hinata just cried and pointed at Haku and then at Naruto. Naruto couldn't make out what she was saying. But he soon put two and two together. Apparently Haku only helped make an even bigger misunderstanding between them.
"Hinata, I'm not gay! Kakashi-sensei just asked me if I could move in with Haku so that it would be easier to pay for rent." Naruto said.
Hinata heard what he said and then got extremely embarrassed. She made a huge scene in front of Naruto over a huge misunderstanding. Her face got a little red and she fainted.
Naruto sighed as he picked up the unconscious girl and laid her on the sofa.
Haku looked at him, a little confused. "I'm guessing she's one of your important people?" Haku asked.
Naruto nodded. "You can say something like that. She's my girlfriend."
"Ah. She seems nice, Naruto." Haku said with a smile.
Naruto then smiled at the unconscious Hyuga girl. "Yeah, she really is." he said.
A few hours passed and Hinata woke up. Haku had gone out to look for anything else that the apartment needed. Hinata sat up to Naruto playing cards with some clones that he made. One clone motioned over to how Hinata was awake so Naruto dispelled the Jutsu.
"So, you're finally awake." Naruto said with a big grin.
Hinata was trying to remember what had happened prior to her fainting. "Y-yeah." she said. "I'm s-sorry that I g-got mad at y-you."
Naruto then got a little idea. "Yeah, that was really something. You hurt my feelings, Hinata. I don't know what you can do to make it up." he said. He then turned to her and she looked a little upset at herself. "I think I know what you can do. Why don't you apologize?" Naruto suggested. Hinata quickly apologized but Naruto just wagged his finger at her. "No. I want us to do it together." he said as he made a kissy face.
Hinata immediately understood what he meant and blushed a bit. She then went closer to his face and met her lips with his. They both mouthed "I'm sorry," while their lips met. Afterwards, Hinata's face got redder and Naruto chuckled.
"Y-yeah, that'll do." Naruto said with a little blush.
Hinata giggled a little at Naruto. "But I w-want to m-make s-sure you know I'm s-sorry." Hinata said in a nice voice. Naruto blushed a little more from that.
"I'm not interrupting, am I?" Kakashi said in a cool voice.
Hinata eeped at him and fainted again on the sofa.
"Aw man! You have the worst timing, Kakashi! She had just woken up, too!" Naruto yelled at him.
"Hehe, sorry Naruto. I just wanted to see how things were going since you guys were moving in here today." Kakashi said with a hand behind his head.
Naruto was still a little pissed at his sensei but he cooled down. "Well, we are just about done here. I kind of like this place. It's a lot roomier than my last apartment." Naruto said with a grin.
"Ah. That's good. I also wanted to let you know that we were going to have dinner tonight with Team 8 and Team 10. Make sure to tell Haku." Kakashi said.
"Wait, why am I telling Haku?" Naruto asked.
"Oh. I forgot to mention that Hokage-sama made Haku a part of Team 7." Kakashi said innocently.
"What?! What happened to a 4 man cell being crucial for stealth and stuff? We are the only team that has 1 extra member!" Naruto yelled.
"Yeah, but it makes for better teamwork. And are you really that much against Haku being on the same team as you?" Kakashi asked.
Naruto thought for a minute. "I guess not. It's just I thought he'd go with another squad. I mean, what's going to happen when we apply for the Chunin Exams?"
Kakashi looked up and remembered that Naruto should already know of the upcoming Chunin Exams (especially since he was from the future). "Well, a team with that many members will have its advantages and disadvantages." Kakashi said.
"I guess it won't hurt." Naruto said with a sigh.
"Okay. Glad to hear it. Anyways, tell Haku and Hinata that you all should be at the barbeque restaurant at around 7." With his last few words, Kakashi disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Naruto sighed while looking around his new place. Naruto noticed that Hinata was starting to wake up. When her eyes opened, she sat up. She tried remembering what had happened last, and then her face became as red as a tomato.
"So you're finally up." Naruto said with a smile.
Hinata was really embarrassed that she had fainted again. "I-I'm s-sorry."
"It's alright. It's not like this is news." Naruto said while laughing.
Hinata looked at him a little upset. "It's n-not funny, N-Naruto!" she stammered.
Naruto gave a little smile at her. "Aww. You're not mad, are you?" Naruto teased.
Hinata then turned her back to him and smiled a little. She knew she couldn't hide her happiness of being with Naruto, but tried her best to fake being angry.
Naruto smiled. "I think I know what'll cheer you up." he teased.
Hinata got a little blush at his comment. She eagerly waited for what he had in store for her. Naruto told her to turn around and close her eyes. She thought about peeking with the Byakugan, but she didn't want to ruin the surprised. So she turned around, closed her eyes, and puckered her lips. Naruto told her to open her eyes and she opened them to Naruto's hands holding some flowers. He had suggested pressing flowers. Hinata immediately fell over at what he suggested. Naruto laughed at her reaction. He had a feeling it wasn't what she expected.
Once she got up, he told her about the dinner they were all having. She said okay and left to get ready.
Now Naruto was bored. He would have to wait for Haku to get back before leaving, but he had nothing to do. Cable wasn't installed yet, he was too lazy to play cards, and they already unloaded everything. Naruto decided to just meditate upside down. He stood up. Went on the ceiling, and sat upside down, meditating.
At 6:30
Haku had returned to the apartment. He had bought some groceries for the apartment, but accidentally dropped them on the ground when he saw Naruto on the ceiling.
"Sup, Haku?" Naruto asked, still on the ceiling.
"Uh… Hi Naruto. What are you doing on upside down?" the boy asked.
"Oh. I was just meditating to kill time. I had to tell you that we are going out to dinner tonight at 7." Naruto said.
Haku gave Naruto a surprised look. He then calmly said, "Naruto… I'm sorry, but I don't like you that way."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT! I'M TELLING YOU THAT WE ARE HAVING DINNER WITH OUR TEAM AND TEAMS 8 AND 10!" Naruto yelled.
"Oh. Why didn't you just say so?" Haku asked. Naruto just gave him an angry look.
"Look. Let's just go. If we're late, then Choji will eat all of the food." Naruto said with a sigh.
Haku didn't know what Naruto was talking about but they left all the same.
At the Barbeque Restaurant
Everyone on Asuma's team was there. No one else was there though. Ino was yelling at Shikamaru, Choji was eating chips, and Shikamaru was not paying any attention.
"Hey! You guys made it!" Ino waved to Naruto and Haku. But then her face dropped. 'How did Naruto get a girl like that? And is he cheating on Hinata?! I'm going to hurt him for this.'
Ino made a swift punch for Naruto's head but Naruto sensed her coming and dodged quickly, leading Ino to punch a pole.
"Ow!" Ino said as she rubbed her hand. "What was that for?!"
"I should be asking you that! You're the one that tried to punch my face!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Well why did you dump Hinata?!" Ino asked still recovering.
Naruto had no idea what Ino was talking about until he remembered that Haku was standing right next to him. "Oh my god! I'm only going to say this once! This is Haku! I'm not dating Haku! Haku is a boy!" Naruto yelled which made Shikamaru cover his ears.
Ino got embarrassed after hearing Naruto's explanation (more so about how she though Haku was a girl). Shikamaru just uncovered his ears and said, "Geez Naruto, no need to scream."
Choji was just busy eating his chips while they had their conversation. Sasuke had arrived and Ino pounced on him.
"Oh Sasuke~. Did you miss me?" Ino said while on top of him. Sasuke was getting tick marks at the corner of his head.
Naruto just casually walked behind Ino, and swiftly hit her neck, knocking her out. "Whoops." Naruto said smiling.
Sasuke got Ino off of him and went up to Naruto. "….thanks."
"No problem." Naruto said with a smile while Haku was moving Ino to the side.
Kiba and Shino arrived next. Kiba was busy talking to Akamaru while Shino walked in silence.
"Hey guys!" Kiba yelled aloud.
"Kiba, do you mind lowering your volume? Others don't appreciate it when their eardrums are ringing with your voice. Why? Because everyone is used to hearing words spoken at a normal volume." Shino said in a low voice.
Everyone dropped a sweat at Shino's comment. He could've said to just be quiet.
Sakura and Hinata arrived after them. Almost everyone was surprised my Sakura's short hair. Well, only Kiba and Haku were surprised. Naruto expected it to be cut off in the future. Sasuke and Shino didn't care. Shikamaru wasn't paying attention. Ino was knocked out. And, Choji was busy eating chips.
"Sakura, what did you do with your hair?" Haku asked.
"Ah. Well, I just thought that it was better short. It got in the way too much, but it's easier to manage now." Sakura said with a smile. She then looked at the unconscious Ino and asked, "So why is Ino on the ground?"
"It's a long story." Haku said with a small smile.
"H-hello Naruto." Hinata told her boyfriend.
"Hey Hinata-hime." Naruto said in a cool tone. Hinata blushed at the comment.
A Half Hour Later
All of the Jonin leaders arrived at the restaurant.
"Damn, Kakashi-sensei! Your tardiness is contagious!" Naruto yelled as he pointed towards all the Jonin.
"Hehe, sorry guys but I had to finish something up." Kakashi said as he thought back to his challenge with Guy.
"Anyways. Let's all head on in." Kurenai said with a smile.
"Alright!" Naruto, Choji, and Kiba said together.
Asuma just sighed as he picked up Ino's unconscious body. He didn't even question why she was knocked out, but guessed it had to do with her big crush on Sasuke.
They all went inside and the 9 Genin sat at one big table, while the 3 Jonin sat at a small table near them. Ino (who was starting to wake up), Choji, and Shikamaru sat together. Sasuke sat in between Kiba and Shino. Sakura sat between Shino and Ino. Haku sat next to Naruto. Haku and Kiba were sitting at the end of the benches. And, Naruto and Hinata, of course, sat together.
They all began having their little conversations.
Ino and Sakura
"Hey billboard brow, what happened to your long hair? Did you finally realize that Sasuke was mine and you just cut it out of anger?" Ino said with a smirk.
"Uh, no. Actually Ino-pig, I liked keeping my hair short. But you can try to win over Sasuke as much as you want. Good luck!" Sakura said with a smile.
Ino was surprised by her rivals comment. "What's that supposed to mean?!" Ino yelled, but Sakura just ignored her as she began grabbing some food.
Shikamaru and Choji
"Choji, you shouldn't try and eat all the food." Shikamaru said with a sigh.
"But, Shikamaru, if I don't then there won't be any left." Choji said.
"At least let the meat cook first." Shikamaru said. "And Asuma's paying, so you don't need to worry about there being no more beef."
"Hehe… You're right." Choji said with some food in his mouth. Asuma just cringed at the mention of his name.
Kiba, Sasuke, and Shino
"Hey dog-boy, you stink." Sasuke said. "You mind keeping your distance?"
"Shut it, Uchiha!" Kiba yelled. "My sense of smell is better than yours so I can smell the sweat on your body. Why don't you keep your distance from me?!"
"Kiba, the answer to your question is obvious. One, your stench is more offensive to everyone else. Two, you're sitting at the end so only you can move over. And three, most people, which refers to people outside of the Inuzuka clan, don't have the strong sense of smell that the Inuzuka clan has so you're just asking for everyone else to conform to you, which is a lot harder than just having you conform to us." Shino pointed out to the Inuzuka.
"Hey! Whose side are you on, Shino?! And why the hell can't you talk normally?!" Kiba yelled.
"I'm not on anyone's side. I was just pointing out the obvious. And to answer your question on my form of speech, I speak this way to point out the facts that you seem to be missing because those facts don't seem to be apparent to you, since you are making an argument," Shino said in a low voice.
'God, one reeks and one over explains. I'm actually glad that I ended up with Naruto and Sakura,' Sasuke thought in his head. He then began grabbing some food.
Naruto, Hinata, and Haku
"Here, Hinata!" Naruto said as he began feeding her some beef. It was his idea. Hinata just got a little embarrassed by it but took a bite.
Then she took some meat and tried putting it in his mouth. "H-h-here you go, N-Naruto." she said softly.
Naruto put half the meat in his mouth but left the other half out of his mouth. He looked over to Hinata and gave her a look that said 'I want to share this meat.' Hinata got a lot redder but nodded. She got closer to him to try and grab the meat with her mouth, but Choji had reached over and grabbed the meat in Naruto's mouth with his chopsticks.
"Well if you're not going to eat it, don't take it." Choji said to Naruto.
"Ch-Choji! I was eating that!" Naruto yelled.
Hinata giggled a little at the scene and Haku observed intently. 'So this is what it's like to eat with others. It's been a while since I've eaten with others.' Haku thought as his mind drifted to being with his parents.
Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenai
"So wait, you mean to tell me that Naruto came from the future?" Kurenai asked intently.
"Yeah, it's a lot to swallow, but it's true." Kakashi said.
"Well what are you guys doing with that scroll?" Asuma asked.
"Oh. Your father had that scroll sealed up securely. We don't want this sort of thing happening over and over again." Kakashi replied.
"Wait. If a scroll like that exists, why don't we just use it to take us back to solve a lot of problems that happened in history?" Kurenai asked.
"Well you see, Naruto was the only one to make it go back so far, and he thinks the reason was because he had the power of the Sage of Six Paths." Kakashi said. Kurenai and Asuma both felt a little off with hearing that this fairytale was actually true. "So only he would have the power to change history. But the scroll doesn't make you go back in time, but rather go back to yourself in the past. It's like a teleportation ninjutsu that uses a previous version of you as the destination. So if you didn't exist in that part of history, you wouldn't exist. That's why Naruto is in his young body. In addition, we don't know the effects that'll take place if we change anything. It really is a troublesome scroll." Kakashi said.
"Makes sense to me," Asuma said. "I mean, even if we go back in time, if we go back too far, we may be in a part of history when the scroll didn't exist. Hell, who knew that the fourth had a scroll as powerful as that."
"Well we shouldn't worry about it. Anyways, let's eat." Kakashi said with a smile under his mask. Asuma and Kurenai got excited because they thought that they'd get to see what was under Kakashi's mask, but Kakashi just quickly ate with his back turned to them. They just sighed.
When it was time to go, everyone said their farewells. Everyone went off in their teams. Then, they all went home. Naruto and Haku went to their new apartment.
Naruto started the conversation on their way back. "So, Haku, how did you like dinner?"
"It was alright. I liked watching you all." Haku said happily.
"Hehe," Naruto said uneasily. "Well it's good that you had fun."
"Yes. And I believe you were enjoying yourself, too." Haku said.
"Yeah, I had lots of fun. But it's going to be boring tomorrow." Naruto said with a sigh.
"Why's that?" Haku asked.
"Well, we are still a team of Genin. So we are going to still have to do simple D-rank missions."
"Hmmm, well I've never been on any D-rank missions, so it should be a nice change of pace." Haku said with a smile.
They finally got to the apartment. They were both tired from today. They both said goodnight to each other and went to their respective rooms. Tomorrow was going to be a long day.
