Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
A/N: Hey, I reached 100 reviews for this like drabble collection. Hoorah. In celebration, I will create my very first NaruHina mini-series. This is chapter one for it. Thank you to all who reviewed this story thus far. Enjoy.
A misunderstood prank
"Rasengan!"
"Gatsuga!"
Naruto slammed the spinning ball of chakra into the grey tornado. The opposing jutsu failed against the powerful attack from the blond haired demon container and sent Kiba spinning into a nearby tree.
"Ah, sorry Kiba." Naruto apologized. "Guess I went a little overboard with that one…"
"Hah! I'm fine. That was hardly an attack." Kiba smiled, despite the large bump forming on his head. He footing was also a bit off. Shino rolled his eyes at the tough guy act his teammate was trying to pull.
"You owe me 10,000 yen." Shino said monotonously.
"Huh?! What for?!" Kiba shouted, appalled by this statement.
"I won the bet. Rasengan would overpower your Gatsuga." Shino replied.
"Y-You did good, Kiba-kun." Hinata smiled. "I-It could have been worse…"
"Yeah. Lucky I didn't use the full power Rasengan or you'd probably be dead right now." Naruto laughed.
"Hey, don't underestimate me." Kiba growled.
"Thanks for letting me train with you guys." Naruto grinned appreciatively. "With Sakura always training with Baa-chan, Kakashi in the hospital, Yamato dealing with paperwork and Sai… being Sai, I probably would be at home with nothing to do. You guys really gave me a good workout!"
"Back at ya, champ." Kiba smirked, slapping the boy on the back.
"W-We were glad to have you, Naruto-kun." Hinata stuttered, blushing red as an apple.
"Thanks, Hinata-chan!" Naruto grinned. His smile made her blush even more.
"Hey, since we're all tired and sweaty from training, why don't we go relax?" Kiba suggested. Akamaru woofed in agreement.
"What did you have in mind?" Hinata asked curiously.
"The hot springs." Kiba grinned. Everyone raised an eyebrow. "Yeah. Ino's team visited it a while ago. She told me it felt great after a good workout. I think we should go. What do you guys think?"
"I've got no objections." Shino said.
"Sounds cool. Let's try it out." Naruto agreed.
"W-Well, if everyone else wants to I guess I could…" Hinata said shyly.
"You're paying for it though." Shino said, nodding to Kiba.
"What? Why?"
"Because, you owe me yen, and this will help pay off your dept. Pay for all of us." Shino ordered.
"Yes sir…" Kiba groaned.
X.X.X
"Man…"
"…What's wrong?" Shino asked, hearing his teammate's exaggerated sigh.
"I thought that this was a mixed bath. When Ino told me about this place she made it sound like it was mixed." Kiba whined.
"…You really have no decency." Shino rolled his eyes behind his glasses.
"C'mon, didn't you want just a little peak?" Kiba asked.
"No. What would Naruto say if he heard you talking about this?" Shino asked. The blond had gone to get a towel from the owner of the hot springs since they forgot to give him one.
Then, Kiba did something that made Shino quite nervous. A wide smile appeared on the dog nin's face.
"…Do I even want to know what's going on in that head of yours?"
"Is Hinata in the springs yet?" Kiba asked.
"…She should be… why…?" Shino said cautiously.
"Heheheheheheh. This is gonna be sweet." Kiba grinned.
He ran over to the signs that said "Men's bath" and "Women's bath", men being on the right, women on the left. Kiba swapped the signs so that the Men's bathe was supposedly on the left and the women's bath was on the right. Kiba chuckled and nodded, satisfied with his work. Shino shook his head.
"Honestly…" Shino sighed.
"Shut up. Don't be such a spoil-sport." Kiba grinned. "C'mon, let's get in. I can't wait to see how this turns out."
"You won't be able to see it. The baths are separated."
"I meant after we get and after Naruto screws up." Kiba grinned. "Now come on. Let's go on our side. The real one." Kiba casually walked down the women's side (Which is actually the men's side). Shino followed him, annoyed with his prank, but interested in the results.
It was at this time Naruto came in, only a towel wrapped around his waist. He smiled to himself.
"It's been a while since I've been to a hot spring. This is gonna be awesome." Naruto grinned. He read the two signs. "So we're on the left. I hope Kiba doesn't try anything funny, if he's learned anything from last time."
He still remembered that day. Kiba couldn't walk straight for a month after Ino caught him trying to peep.
Naruto laughed at the memory and walked down the left hallway, not knowing of Kiba's prank.
X.X.X
Hinata sighed in contentment. They water felt so good. She couldn't remember the last time she went to a hot spring. She almost forgot how good it felt. She just felt so relaxed. She closed her eyes and leaned back, letting the feeling of bliss wash over her.
Then she heard the water ripple, and someone get in.
Hinata raised her head. Someone else was definitely in the bath with her. She smiled, ready to greet the new arrival.
"Ah. This feels nice."
The hyuuga heiress paled. That… didn't sound like a feminine voice. It sounded like a guy's voice… someone she knew…
"Um, hello?" Hinata squeaked.
"Huh? Kiba, Shino, that you guys?"
Hinata's eyes widened. She felt the water ripple, and something moving towards her. Her mind was in a frenzy, and she forgot how to move. It was quite a shock when she saw Naruto appear in front of her, and his expression mimic hers. All of Konoha heard the next word.
"PERVERT!" Hinata shrieked. A loud bang was heard, the impact shaking trees and scattering animals.
X.X.X
"Well, that's my cue." Kiba smiled as he heard Hinata's scream.
"Cue for what?"
"To switch the signs back." Kiba smirked.
He quickly hopped out of the pool and back into the room where the signs were. He switched them back to their original places and dashed back to the men's side. He hopped back into the hot springs and kicked back.
"Let's relax a bit more then get out. I'm looking forward to seeing the fruits of my labor." Kiba smirked. Shino sighed.
X.X.X
"Honestly, I didn't mean to peep on you." Naruto said, fully clothed.
"I-It doesn't matter if you meant to or not, the fact is that you did." Hinata said, also fully clothed. They were waiting on Kiba and Shino, who were still getting dressed. Though her face expressed offense, her blush was much more noticeable.
"I could have sworn I went into the right hot spring. It's what the sign said… or so I though." Naruto said as he looked at the signs with puzzlement. He could have sworn they were different when he first read them…
Hinata blushed rosily. She glanced sideways towards Naruto. Her hand impression on his face was still there. He had washed the blood out of mouth before he had gotten dressed. Maybe she shouldn't have slapped him so hard… but he did deserve it after he peeped on her, unintentional or not.
Still, Hinata knew deep down, she really hoped he liked what he saw.
"…I still wouldn't have expected you of all people to peep on me, Naruto-kun." Hinata said. "I would expect that kind of thing from Kiba-kun. Not you."
"Man, I told you I was sorry and that I didn't mean to!" Naruto said, turning towards the girl. "I mean, who'd want to see you naked anyway?"
Naruto turned back around, thinking he had finally convinced her that he hadn't peeped on her intentionally. Someone was screwing with him and he knew it. He turned back around to voice this thought to Hinata, but was confused with what he saw.
The girl's head was bowed. Her shoulders were shaking and her fists were clenching and unclenching. Naruto stepped back unconsciously. Hinata's head shot up, her eyes looking into Naruto's, anger evident in her eyes.
"…Hinata-chan…?" Naruto asked uneasily.
"BAKA!" Hinata shouted, making the boy jump. She glared at him. Naruto could see tears lingering in the corners of her eyes.
"Hinata…chan…?"
"You're such a jerk!" Hinata shouted. "Why should I care what you think! You don't even care that… Baka!"
Hinata pushed passed the stunned teen, running out the door. Naruto blinked a few times, his brain trying it's best to download and process what had just occurred.
"Eh…wait…what….huh?!" Naruto sputtered. He heard someone's tongue click. He turned around to see Shino looking at Naruto disapprovingly and Kiba shaking his head.
"Not cool, dude. Not cool." Kiba sighed.
"Very unwise comment." Shino nodded. Naruto blinked at them stupidly.
What did he do?
A/N: Hm. Not bad. Naruto really says some stupid things though. Not really the best thing to say to Hinata. Even she gets mad when someone insults her pertaining to her appearance.
