CHAPTER 13…. Lol thirteen is the unlucky number….
I LOVE YOUR REVIEWS :) thank you soo much…. Special thanks to 'pennames are troublesome' 'Miko in training' 'taiga-tan1000' I love you guys :P… oh and thanks 'Rose Tiger' for correcting me… I'll spell it right for the rest of the chapters :P
Well, I haven't much to say right now, which is a little strange since I ALWAYS have something to say… so I think I'll tell you about my day…
I had a VERY strange conversation today, and by the end of the conversation I ended up learning several random things that AREN'T true, by the way.
I am a fish.
I am allergic to air
I live under a pebble
The last time I was in a sandpit I nearly drowned AND
I am colour blind
I have officially decided I have STRANGE conversations…. :)
** N-A-R-U-H-I-N-A **
** N-A-R-U-H-I-N-A **
"Oh… My… God! This house is huge. I mean. It's. So. Awesome." Hinata sighed, staring at the large two-story house standing in front of them.
The house was tan in colour, with a bright marron roof. A small platform came out of the top story, looking out to the village. The house was surrounded by a large beautiful garden, which Hinata really wanted to start working on. And a cement stepping stone footpath made its way towards the front door.
"…. Oh my god! oh my god! ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod!" Hinata kept saying over and over again. Amazed beyond belief.
Now it was Naruto's turn to smirk at his girlfriend's antics as he placed his palm over her mouth, so she couldn't talk.
"…ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod!"
"Oh, man!" Naruto sighed, trying to think of ways to shut his girlfriend up when an idea come to mind.
Naruto quickly took his hand away from her mouth and before she could start talking again, he quickly pushed his lips to hers.
"…."
"I knew that would shut you up." Naruto chuckled inwardly.
Hinata hesitantly broke the lip-lock, "Hey, it's not my fault I can't think straight when you're kissing m-mmph!" Hinata was interrupted by Naruto's lips connecting with hers again.
"… N-not… f-f-funny…." Hinata forced herself to think the words through the kiss.
**FLASH**
Both teens jumped away from each other at the sudden light interrupting their kiss. They turned around to see Tsunade standing next to them with a camera in hand. She was most likely getting pay-back after the stunt Naruto and Hinata pulled earlier that day.
"Aw, that was so cute!" Tsunade smiled at the couple.
"Er, Hi… Baa-chan. What are you doing here?" Naruto asked uncomfortably.
"I needed to talk to you two. I need to know how strong you've both gotten." Tsunade explained.
"I'm going to have to start teaching you again, and I need to know what you know." Jiraiya clarified, appearing suddenly.
"Well, okay." Hinata agreed, "Are we getting tested?"
"Well, I'll test you, then you can go back into your team with Kiba, Shino and Kurenai, and it might take a while for me to get you into a full team, Naruto, since Sakura is working full-time in the hospital and still training under me." Tsunade said thoughtfully.
"Wait, Baa-Chan! You can't split me and Hina-chan up! We work much better as a team. Please!" Naruto begged.
"It would be even that way, Hokage-Sama." Hinata said persuadably, "Then there will be Kurenai, Kiba and Shino in one team and Jiraiya-san, Naruto and I in the other."
"I for one wouldn't mind training the lovely Hinata-chan." Jiraiya smiled staring at Hinata's rack.
Suddenly Jiraiya felt a swift foot in the gut from Hinata at the exact time Naruto's fist had connected to Jiraiya's face, sending the pervert flying.
"My face is up here, you pervert." Hinata growled cracking her knuckles.
Naruto was suddenly unsure if he wanted his girlfriend training with him and their perverted sensei, although with her there it would be a lot easier getting the perv to train them.
Hinata heard Naruto's thoughts and quickly said, "Even though he is a perv, I wouldn't mind training under one of the sannin, I'll just have to get used to punching the hell out of him every time he does something inappropriate."
"Not if I get to him first." Naruto glared at the sannin who was trudging back to the group.
"Now I know what you mean when you say you work well together as a team. You two hit me at the exact same time." Jiraiya complemented as he reached the group.
"You haven't seen us when fighting with Miya and Keko yet." Hinata smirked.
"Who?" Tsunade and Jiraiya gave a look of confusion.
"We have our secrets." Hinata winked teasingly.
"Well, that settles it. You will fight another of the chunin teams, most likely Shikamaru's team. Then we will decide what we are going to do with you. Plus, you still need to enter the Chunin Exam." Tsunade sighed.
"For now, let's get back to the party!" Jiraiya sighed, pulling Naruto and Hinata towards the front door of Naruto's home, Tsunade trudging along behind.
"What party?" Naruto asked as he was dragged through his front door.
"WELCOME BACK!" A large yell erupted from inside the house when the four entered through the front door.
"Now that you're here, we can tell you about your parents!" Tsunade smiled heading up to the far end of the living room, where a microphone was situated.
"I already know who my parents are though…"
"Just let them have their fun. You can tell them afterwards. Plus, we get a party out of it!" Hinata thought with a smile as she glanced around the room. There weren't many people here, which she was glad about. Tenten and Neji were sitting on the black and white striped felt couch while Ino and Sakura were dishing out drinks. Choji was standing near the food table with Shikamaru, and Kiba and Lee were playing Guitar Hero on the PlayStation 3 that was hooked up to the large plasma T.V.
Then there were few adults, Kakashi, Kurenai, Asuma and Iruka were also there standing around having a conversation. Even Hiashi and Hikari were there, smiling and talking to everyone.
"LISTEN UP!" Tsunade yelled into the microphone getting everyone's attention. "Now, the reason we all are here is to find out the mystery of Naruto's parents. You see, now that Naruto is seventeen, he is old enough to know the truth. Now, the reason Naruto wasn't told before is because Naruto's father had many enemies, he was a well-known and a very skilled ninja of Konoha and if they knew he had a son they definitely would've sent assassins out to kill him. Anyway, Naruto's mother was a well-known troublemaker in Konoha, and her name was Kushina Uzumaki, and the father of Naruto was the legendary 'Yellow Flash' or also known as the 'Yondaime' the fourth hokage!" Tsunade smiled at Naruto.
Naruto smiled widely back before walking up to the stage and taking the microphone from Tsunade, "Well, firstly, I'd like to say… I already knew they were my parents. And I have for a while." He chuckled at the shocked expressions, "I learnt it while I was on my last mission and I wasn't too happy about it actually. I was unhappy because I probably would've been respected if there were people who knew who I was. But after a talk with Hinata, I decided it was good that not everyone knew, so I would be known as Naruto Uzumaki, not the fourth's son."
That left a lot of people speechless. Tsunade quickly walked up and took the microphone, "Now, let's enjoy the party!"
The crowd erupted in a cheer after that, and everyone went back to enjoying themselves, Sakura, Ino and Iruka went up to Naruto to give him their two cents.
"I'm glad that you took this whole thing the right way and didn't blame him for anything." Iruka smiled to the boy who was like a son to him, "Even if you figured it out a while back."
"Oh, Iruka-sensei." Hinata smiled, "Naruto-kun isn't that smart. He wouldn't figure it out by himself. My mum told him." Hinata chuckled.
"Hey! I would've figured it out… eventually." He grinned making Hinata and Iruka start laughing.
"Wow, Naruto! I never knew your father was the Yondaime. But I guess you do look pretty similar." Sakura smiled.
Ino ran up to Naruto next, "Yes, Naruto-kun! You both look much the same. And you are both strong too!" Hinata's eyes narrowed at Ino's flirting.
"Uhh… thanks… Ino-san," Naruto said as politely as he could.
"She is up to something. Vix, she keeps glaring at you. You need to watch out. You too Kit." The Kyuubi warned.
"I'm going to look around the rest of the house now. I'll be back." Naruto rushed through his words trying to think of an escape.
"I'll come with you!" Ino decided.
"No!.. I mean, no thanks Ino, you stay here and have fun." Naruto said and walked off before Ino could say any more.
"Hina-chan? Wanna search the rooms with me?"
"Okay, okay, I'm coming. I just gotta make something up."Hinata then turned to Ino, "I'll be back; I need to find where the bathroom is in this house."
Ino just ignored her as Hinata walked off, but got a little suspicious when Hinata went the same direction as Naruto.
"Ruto-kun!" Hinata whispered loudly as she disappeared through the hallway.
Naruto abruptly turned around letting his girl run into his arms, "Ruto-kun?" One eyebrow shot up.
Hinata blinked, then her lips broke out in a wide smile, "Yep. I like it. Ruto-kun." Hinata decided, pecking Naruto gently on the cheek.
"Let's explore my house!" Naruto smiled, carrying Hinata through the rooms piggy-back style.
The first room they entered was the kitchen; it was clean and pretty big. It had a fridge and freezer in one end of the room, flanked by the stove and sink. Then there were benches and cupboards just about everywhere else and a small microwave on one of those benches.
Next was a bathroom, which held a spa in it! Naruto decided he and Hinata were going to use it when they get their bathing suits. He could just imagine how good it would be for relaxing after some intense sparring.
Naruto was shocked when he opened a metal door and inside there was a training dojo. The dojo was full of trees, craters rocks and a small pool. Good area for training.
"Wow, this place is gorgeous! This could be like our secret training field! I mean, WOW! It's like, in. Your. House!" Hinata smiled.
Hinata got out of Naruto's arms and walked around the area. She quickly noticed a small door in the far corner of the dojo. Smiling, she entered the room and was amazed at what she saw.
The room was full of weapons. Everywhere. Kunai, shuriken, fuma shuriken, senbons, katanas, staffs, tonfas, arm and leg guards, shields, tri-pronged kunai, whatever you could possibly think of! "Ruto-kun! You'll like it in here!" Hinata smiled, calling her boyfriend in.
"Oh, man! This is awesome!" Naruto smiled as he walked through the door. Looking through all the weaponry. "I bet Tenten probably doesn't own this much!"
"Naruto-kun. Tenten's family owns a weapon store." Hinata giggled.
"Oh, right. But still, this is heaps!"
"Come on! Let's go upstairs!" Hinata smiled, dragging her boyfriend back out the room, closing the door behind her.
She left the dojo and continued down the hall, there was a laundry on the right, but that wasn't very interesting so Hinata made her way up the stairs, dragging her boyfriend along.
There weren't as many rooms upstairs, they found another bathroom – with another spa – there was another lounge room type thing, but his one look more cosy and private, a couple small loveseats and another plasma T.V connected to a DVD player. This lounge room looked as though not many people could fit in the room, so it was more comfortable and cosy.
Naruto froze when he entered the next room. It was the master bedroom. One large red bed was placed in the center of the room, and two large doors on each end of the room. These were the walk-in-wardrobes. But that wasn't what caught Naruto's attention. What caught Naruto's attention was the large photo hanging up in the center of the wall above the bed. There was a large photo of Naruto's parents. They were standing under a cherry blossom tree, Kushina's red hair going past her shoulders and Minato in his famous white and blue flamed hokage robe flowing in the breeze.
Hinata walked up to Naruto and put a comforting hand on his shoulder. He turned around scooping his Hinata up and silently crying into her jacket. She quietly hushed him as she walked through the only remaining door.
This room was Naruto's. She felt tears falling down her cheeks just looking at it. Naruto had stopped crying because he was in shock. There was one crib in the corner of the room, small coloured blocks on a bench spelling out 'N A R U T O' and another large photo put up on a wall, this one had a baby in Kushina's hands. There were play toys, like cars and aeroplanes in a box and baby clothes hanging on coat hangers.
Hinata embraced Naruto again, giving him all the comfort that was possible for one girl. She gently walked him out of the room and shut the door behind her. She felt sorry for Naruto. The life he could've had. If it weren't for the Kyuubi…
"Sorry, Kit." Even the Kyuubi felt saddened after seeing that, "I did tell you it wasn't my intention to attack Konoha, didn't I? Well, if you want to blame anyone, blame Orochimaru. He was at fault. The reason I was attacking Konoha was because I was after him. He killed my mate and kits. So I left to murder him… Sorry."
"its okay, Fluffy. I believe you." Naruto didn't even bother thinking it; he just spoke out loud, "I'm happy anyway. If they were still here I don't know what would've happened. I might still be blindly chasing Sakura because I never wouldn't have went on that trip with the perv and I wouldn't have gotten that birthday gift. Then I wouldn't have started thinking about Hina-chan the whole time I was away. And I don't know what I'd do without Hinata."
"I love you too, Naruto-kun," Hinata smiled, gently sitting them both on the bed, "Now let's get you cleaned up so we can get back to the party."
** N-A-R-U-H-I-N-A **
"What were you two doing that took you so long, hmm?" Tsunade smirked accusingly as Hinata and Naruto appeared back down the stairs.
Both teens blushed, "Nothing like that! We were checking out the house!" Naruto defended himself.
"Well, if you say so." She smirked, looking at the camera she still had in her hands and walking off, obviously planning something with that photo.
"Hey, Hinata-Chan! I was looking everywhere for you! I wanted to know what you've been up to in the last five months." Kiba came up to Naruto and Hinata.
"Oh, hey Kiba. I haven't been doing too much, really. Just me and Naruto saving my mum." Hinata smiled at her teammate.
"Oh, cool. You need to tell me about it sometime. Come over my place sometime and tell me all about it. I really want to hear about it." Kiba smiled widely.
"I don't like him. He is letting off a lot of pheromones. He wants to mate with Vix." Kyuubi warned, growling inwardly.
Naruto quickly clenched his fists and Hinata looked around awkwardly after that piece of information from Kyuubi, trying to think of an excuse, "Uh, sorry Kiba, but I have a lot to do around this time. Like, you know, the chunin exams and all." Hinata fake smiled.
"Oh, sure, maybe some other time then. Well, now, do you wanna play Guitar Hero against me? I am awesome at the game!" He bragged. "But I might just go easy on you since I like you."
"No thanks, maybe next time. I think I'm just going to have a few drinks and relax around here talking to people for a bit, I've got that test tomorrow."
"Oh, right, I heard about that. Good luck in facing Shikamaru's team tomorrow. You'll need it. Especially with Naruto on your team." Kiba smirked.
Hinata couldn't help but feel offended by that remark, "You seem to forget that Naruto kicked your ass in the first Chunin Exams." She shot back as politely as she could.
Naruto smiled widely at Hinata sticking up for him like that. But then he felt someone closing in on him.
"Naruto-nii!" Konohamaru's voice was heard as he ran up to Naruto and Hinata, "I have mastered the sexy jutsu. Do you want me to show you?"
"Sorry, Konohamaru, I don't do that anymore." Naruto said casually.
"What? Why? It is the ultimate technique." Konohamaru was shocked.
"Because it would be useless with Hina-chan on my team. I can't transform into anything nearly as sexy as my girl, so it would be utterly useless. No-one would be paying attention to me." Naruto smiled, making Hinata blush tenfold.
Konohamaru looked shocked, "Okay… But I will still be seventh hokage!" Konohamaru vowed.
"Yeah, because I'm the sixth." Naruto smirked.
Suddenly Naruto noticed someone in the room that he hadn't noticed before, "Ebisu-teme.." he growled and headed over to him.
Naruto was suddenly holding Ebisu by the collar of his shirt up against one of the walls, "I promised I'd have your head, didn't I?" He reminded with a growl.
"You wouldn't be able to beat me. I'm a jounin!" He bragged.
Which only made Naruto growl louder, "Yeah! And I'm a genin! How do you think it would look when you get your ass kicked by a genin like me!"
There were a few people watching now, well, most of the audience apart from Kiba and Lee who were still playing 'guitar hero'.
"You wouldn't be able to beat me." He repeated confidently, "Plus, I bet that girlfriend of yours dumped you by now anyway. She probably found someone better. Or, better yet, she was probably just some slut that got sick of you and moved on to the next guy she walked past."
Naruto punched Ebisu in the face hard, holding him up so he wouldn't break any walls of his new house, "You call her a slut and I will kill you got it?"
"What? I bet it's the truth! She's probably married or already has like six boyfriends! You probably met her in a stripper club, because she was sick of the six guys she already had and wanted another!"
Naruto was fuming now, the only reason he hadn't hit him yet was because he was desperately holding fox chakra back. The audience was staring at Ebisu in horror of what was just said, especially Tsunade, who was glancing at the fuming Hinata wondering when the girl was going to snap.
Suddenly Hinata appeared next to Naruto and punched Ebisu in the face. Hard.
Naruto was still holding Ebisu still so when Hinata's fist connected to his jaw, he didn't move much. Hinata slowly leant over to Ebisu's ear and whispered in it, "Am I a slut, am I? Well, I have you know I only have one boyfriend, which I didn't even dump so stop making up shit about me. I bet you didn't even know who I was when you groped me that time. I am a ninja of Konoha too and I can kick your ass. Would you like me to show you?" She whispered maliciously, leaning away from Ebisu and kicking him in the balls which made every man in the room wince as Naruto dropped him and Ebisu hit the floor.
"Don't mess with me, and whatever you do, don't talk about my girlfriend like that. She's the kindest, most caring, awesomest person on the planet. And if I hear anyone offend her like that, they will pay." Naruto growled.
Hinata blushed at that compliment, although she knew 'awesomest' wasn't a word, Naruto sticking up for her was cute.
"Sorry, guys! I think this party is officially over! I need rest for tomorrows test and so does Shikamaru's team! I'll see you all later!" Tsunade smiled, trying to change the mood as everyone said a quick goodbye and started to leave.
"Hinata? You coming?" Hiashi asked his daughter as he said a quick bye to Naruto.
"Yeah, I'll meet you at home. Just need to say a quick bye to Naruto." Hinata smiled at her father and waited for everyone else to leave.
"Okay, Hina-chan. Just don't take too long." Hikari smiled and left with Hiashi.
"Goodbye Naruto-kun!" Ino ran up to him for a special goodbye, looking as though she was expecting a hug or kiss.
"Bye." He said unenthusiastically, waiting for the girl to leave.
"well, you have a girlfriend, huh? Who is she? That was so sweet the way you were sticking up for her." Ino smiled sweetly.
"What her name is, is none of your business." Naruto said, still unemotionally, waiting for this conversation to finish.
"Well, if she's not important enough for you to tell me, why don't you dump her for someone more… suitable." She flirted, batting her eyelids like an idiot.
Naruto leant forward and grabbed Ino's collar of her shirt, "Ino, I am not dumping my girlfriend. Especially for the likes of you. I told everyone my girlfriend was kind and caring which I might add you are not. You would still helplessly try and flirt with me after you were told I had a girlfriend… just get out." Naruto growled and turned around to walk to Hinata, who was silently glaring holes through Ino as she huffed and walked away, out of the door with her nose high in the air.
"I am so lucky we're versing her team tomorrow. I get a chance to smack the shit outta that stuck up bitch…" She was suddenly cut off by Naruto's lips on hers again.
"You're so cute when you're jealous." Naruto smiled, breaking the kiss.
"You do know Ino saw us kiss, right?" Hinata realised, watching Ino storm off even faster than before.
"Oh, well. At least now she knows I have a bad-ass girlfriend that is stronger than her." He hugged his girl, "But it's too bad. I liked seeing you jealous."
"Hey, would you like it if I liked it when you were jealous and just let Kiba and Raiku-teme flirt with me?" Hinata raised her eyebrows.
Naruto let out a growl from that remark, he didn't like that thought, "I'll beat the crap out of anyone who tries to flirt with you."
Hinata smiled, "This is the reason I'm beating the crap out of Ino tomorrow."
"Well, you should get some rest. I will meet you tomorrow for lunch before the test." Naruto sighed, giving Hinata one last kiss before she walked out of the door.
