Chapter 9- 'Academy Students':
Hinata saw Naruto standing over what looked like a bleeding Konohamaru, and began to charge. Without a care in the world, she started laughing and opened her arms up.
Naruto began walking away after tossing the younger ninja a tissue, and before he knew it, his girlfriend had tackled him to the ground in a massive bear hug.
Naruto opened his eyes, and saw the white eyes of his Byakugan Princess. Beneath her eyes was a smile that was bigger than his own.
"Hello!", She said, enthusiastically.
She couldn't stop giggling, and she kissed him on the nose, making him scrunch his face a little. Hinata straddled him, with her knees up to his arm pits, and her very ample chest up against his own. Her arms were tangled around his back, and her hair lined her face as she looked down at her boyfriend.
Her long, lavender hair tickled Naruto's face, so he hugged her and sat up, kissing her on the lips. Naruto started chuckling in the kiss, and smiled warmly, breaking the seal their lips had made.
Hinata hopped off of his body and pulled him up.
"Well," Naruto said, a huge grin on his face, "You're in a good mood!'
Hinata giggled and took him by the hand. "Come on! Let's go!", she said dragging him along as they ran.
They got to the edge of the forest, and began hoping from tree to tree. After two or three branches, both stopped, and Hinata winked and pushed Naruto off the branch.
She put her hands to the corners of her mouth and called out, "catch me if you can!", before beginning to jump away.
Naruto quickly jumped off another tree branch and gave chase, a determined look on his face. "Just you wait! I'll get you, y'know!", He yelled ahead, smiling mischievously.
Hinata, still laughing as she jumped from branch to branch, looked behind her to see his figure getting smaller and smaller. Once his sight line was broken, she quickly dove behind a tree to hide and ambush him. She giggled a little bit but quickly stopped herself.
She activated her Byakugan and scanned behind her and above her, expecting to see Naruto giving chase. When she didn't see him, she began scanning all around before looking down through the thick tree branch she was on. By the time she focused on the person hanging upside down from the bottom of the branch, she felt a hand grab her shoulder and pull her down. She quickly realized that she was upside down, her hair dangling below her head. She also realized that Naruto was holding her and that her face was an inch from his. He had orange markings around his eyes, and his pupils were black, horizontal lines over a yellow iris. Hinata 'eeped' at this, startled.
Naruto started laughing, and the markings went away. "Hinata, put chakra in your feet and stick to the tree!"
She did as she was told, and the two clambered on top of the branch.
"Naruto… What exactly was that?", Hinata said, confused and worried.
"Sage mode! Behold, for you are standing before the great Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku!", Naruto said, striking a pose that mirrored the one Jiraya had used when first meeting the boy.
Hinata started to laugh, covering her mouth, and asked, "What is that though?"
Naruto smiled and began to explain nature energy and how he was able to harness it for about five minutes per charge.
"So is that how you beat the Six Pains?", Hinata asked.
"That, and it's also how I found the real Pain- a shinobi named Nagato from the Hidden Rain", Naruto explained. "I managed to convince him that there was a way to achieve peace, and that our shared master's dream could come true."
Hinata was surprised. "You and Pain- were Master Jiraya's… sibling students?"
Naruto nodded and put his hands on his hips. "I got him to believe in me… Just like my Dad believed in me. Then, he sacrificed himself to revive everyone in the village."
Hinata was awestruck. "Naruto- you really are amazing; you know that?"
"Nah- I just do whatever it takes to protect those who are precious to me. A wise kid once told me, 'When a person has something important they want to protect, that's when they become truly strong'.", Naruto said, reminiscing. "Kakashi-sensei, Iruka- sensei, Granny Tsunade, Konohamaru, Sakura, Kiba, Ino- everyone in the village is precious to me. Even if they did treat me horribly once."
Naruto looked into Hinata's eyes. "You're precious to me, Hinata. You were the only one who wasn't ever horrible to me- not once. Honestly? I think you're the only one that I didn't have to try to gain acceptance from."
Hinata smiled, "I always saw such determination in you- and I always saw everyone else as being so unfair. You deserved so much better, Naruto. I just hope I am able to give you the love you deserve."
Naruto smiled and held her hands. "And I want to give you the attention and care you deserve. I know your father was hard on you, and basically sidelined you from the family. I know that he probably doesn't like me very much. I just hope us being together isn't going to be a strain on that."
Hinata lit up and looked off to the side, "Hanabi and I spoke with my father- by saving my sister, Naruto, I think you changed his outlook on a lot of things. Even about you. He was proud of me for what I did yesterday… More so than I thought he would be. He finally accepted me! He finally saw how strong I had become and really, truly acknowledged me for the first time ever!"
A small grin flexed on her face. "And he admitted that he couldn't do very much to control me anymore since I was inspired by you to walk my own path. Well, the path I want to walk is the one where I am next to you, Naruto", Hinata said, blushing.
Naruto smiled, and Hinata decided she had waited long enough. The two jumped down to the ground, and Hinata attacked Naruto's face with her lips.
The ferocity of her kiss, as well as Hinata placing one hand on the back of Naruto's neck while massaging below and behind his ear, drove the boy crazy. The last straw was a smack delivered to his firm bottom, with Hinata grabbing his ass in the process. The 'Toad Sage', conservative with his hand placement, placed one hand on the back of his girlfriend's head, and one hand on her hip.
The two began to have a passionate kissing session, with soft lips making contact for longer and longer, with small smiles in between. Then, Hinata made the next bold move.
She flicked her tongue into Naruto's mouth, sending waves of pleasure throughout his body. When she flicked her tongue forward again, Naruto was even more electrified, and kissed her harder. Then, Naruto gave it a try, tracing the length of Hinata's lips with his tongue. His girlfriend let out a small moan. This pattern continued, until their tongues eventually collided, going in and out of one another's mouth. The sensation was ecstatic to them both, as their hands started to explore with the same ferocity as their tongues.
As their making out became more and more sloppy, they pulled apart and got some air. Both wiped their mouths with their sleeves and immediately dove back in. Hinata was becoming very aroused from the intense make out session they were having, and remembered Sakura's explanation of it being natural to feel so primal.
Naruto cradled Hinata's jaw as his head moved to the side. The shorter girl squeezed and lightly smacked Naruto's butt as encouragement, while Naruto lightly massaged his girlfriend's back. Hinata took her right hand and began touching Naruto's chest and neck.
Then, Naruto, remembering the Pervy Sage's teachings, broke the kiss and quickly moved down to her neck. Hinata gasped in surprise, as her dream from the other night came true. Naruto lightly kissed and sucked just below her jawline, as Hinata melted down in his arms with her eyes closed and mouth slightly ajar. Naruto kissed and sucked lightly, as if he was eating a juicy piece of fruit. He flicked his tongue on her neck and made small circles to lightly tickle her. Naruto accidentally slightly bit her, causing Hinata to cry out. The pure ecstasy she felt practically took her breath away.
Naruto immediately pulled back, "Hinata! I'm sorry!" he said with a look of worry on his face.
Hinata looked at him, slightly angrily, and pulled his head closer. "Do that again!", She said forcefully.
Naruto immediately complied and began to suck and nip at her neck, making Hinata shake with excitement. Her moans became louder and more frequent. She became more and more excited with each bite, and more and more brave.
Then, Hinata decided it was Naruto's turn. She immediately placed her lips on his neck, and barraged it with kisses. Naruto was already fairly aroused, but this began to push him over the edge. He felt his member become stiffer and more sensitive as he closed his eyes and began to pant. Hinata continued to suck on his neck and bite him, and she began to really enjoy taking control of the situation.
Hinata also felt a strange, aroused feeling in her breasts as she realized her nipples were hard.
After a while of the two making out, pushing each other against trees, and grabbing one another's backsides, they began to tire out and pant. Naruto awkwardly fixed his pants when Hinata wasn't looking, as he had done his best to not get hard and embarrass himself. They held hands and began to walk back to the leaf.
Hinata huffed and puffed. "That was amazing, Naruto! Where on Earth did you learn to do that?", Hinata asked.
Naruto, also out of breath, responded, with, "Well, it just felt right to me."
The two hugged each other while they walked, and Hinata couldn't stop staring at Naruto. She also began to realize that there were a lot of strange marks on his neck.
"Naruto- your neck has bruises on it… Was that… From me?", Hinata asked blushing.
Naruto looked in a small puddle. "Yeah I guess so- since you have a bunch too!", he said, poking at one of them. "Does it hurt?"
Hinata shook her head. "Maybe we can get Sakura to help us- it's a little embarrassing.
Naruto nodded. He leaned in and kissed her, but her hand accidentally rubbed around his thigh, making him get hard enough to see. Hinata blushed.
Naruto looked like he was about to die. "OH GOD THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING", he cried out.
Hinata slightly giggled, and said, "Naruto it happens- it just means that I know you liked what I did." She looked at the dirt and put her hands behind her. She kicked a small rock. "I really did too", she said, looking up smiling with a cute grin on her face.
Upon their return to camp. Sakura was taken aback by the state of both of their necks. Especially Naruto's. She noticed that Hinata had about 4 hickeys that she could see, and Naruto had at least 9.
"Hinata- you really went to town!" She said as she healed he bruises. Hinata took pride in this, and smiled.
"You don't have to worry about treating mine, Sakura- I know your busy.", Naruto said, out of concern.
"Ohh no you don't! You aren't wearing those like a badge of pride while I am around! Sakura snapped.
Naruto backed off and sat down. Once both of their necks were healed, the couple walked outside.
"Naruto," Hinata asked. "You didn't grow up with a family… You never ever talked about them- I thought you were orphaned… But you mentioned your father earlier."
"Well, when I was fighting Pain and turned into the tailed beast- after you got hurt that is- I grew up to eight tails. If the ninth tail had sprouted, my understanding is that I basically would have been destroyed. I wanted so badly to kill Pain that I let the fox spirit inside of me convince me to let it give me power."
Naruto looked at the Hokage rock, still undamaged from the battle. "Then, I met my Dad. When he sealed the fox inside of me, he infused his chakra into the seal so I could meet him."
Naruto smiled wildly. "He said he believed in me. That he gave me the power I have now because he knew I could eventually use it."
Hinata looked at him, awestruck. She remembered her dream the previous night where the Fourth Hokage was standing.
It slowly dawned on her. The Fourth sealed the 9-tails inside Naruto. But Naruto just said that his father… had…
It clicked. The yellow hair should have been a dead giveaway, but she realized who her boyfriend's father was.
Hinata stared at her beloved wide-eyed. "Naruto… Your dad was Minato Namikaze… The Fourth Hokage of the Village Hidden in… the… Leaves…" she trailed off. Her arms dropped to her sides and her mouth hung open as if weights had been tied to it.
Naruto smiled. "I learned a lot yesterday. Namely that two people loved me. My Dad, and you, y'know!"
He leaned in to kiss her, and she hugged him tightly. This was the revelation that helped Naruto to push through to beat Pain. Hinata was amazed. She always knew her boyfriend was incredible, but thought that he came from nowhere significant. As a matter of fact, Naruto had thought the same. For her, it was as if everything fit together- as if Naruto's incredible place in the world made sense. With all that had happened and with all he had accomplished, she almost wasn't surprised to hear any of it.
As for Naruto, he had learned the identity of his father, and had found a young woman who looked at him with passionate, white rose-colored glasses every single second they were together. He was happier now than he had been in years.
