Yes yes Hina-chan's gonna wake up. You forgot to say that Kushina will (hopefully) be waking up as well, but I guess Hinata is more important. I already checked out the calm before the storm and I like it. Both stories are top notch so please continue with them.
T.N.
Me[to all the reviews above: I know! I can't wait til she wakes up! And yeah, my bad but I guess me entire focus was on Hinata that I forgot to mention Kushina.. haha my bad...
Yes, I'm not going to get the crap beaten out of me! Especially by Oni Naruto... phew... dodged a bullet...
Thanks, it took a lot of effort on my part to make those fight scenes...

Anywho great job!

well the story improved I'll give you that.
but here's a little point about hinata, she can't close the chakra points, that was something special about neji a genius.
so what is the huge of the gentle fist for her?
from what I understand, using the gentle fist the hyuuga can attack the organs directly, that's why hinata and naruto started spitting blood after the fight with neji, not the chakra points, cause he attack the heart of both of them.
also, the fact that kasima steals chakra doesn't meam he weakens the opponent when his sword is close to them, only if they use chakra then he steals said chakra, but it won't effect them or people like lee or guy who can't use chakra, so it shouldn't have effected naruto strength till he started using chakra
Me: Ok, let's see, where to start.... oh I got it, thanks i think... I would've normally considered this and your other review a flame but, i decided not to act on it and considered it a constructive criticism...
The huge of her gentle fist for- what the hell does that even mean? I don't think I said that she did... if i did then even so, she isn't as weak as the canon so if I wanted her to close chakra points, she will!
I don't even know what you're talking about anymore... What does neji's fight with both Hinata and Naruto have to do with your earlier question?
Nope, you are wrong my friend, if Kisame's sword Samehada comes in contact with anything that produces chakra, it sucks it up, even when it's not in use... look it up...

So anyways, on to the story and eventual lemon...
Chapter 26: The Awakening and Confrontation...
Disclaimer: don't own Naruto...
Last time on Naruto of the Immortal Clan...
"I've had better days." Naruto answer with his usual demeanor. He then looked at Tsunade. "So are you coming back to Konoha or just continued to gamble away your life at casinos." Naruto asked with a sarcastic tone. Tsunade sighed as she calmed her anger down.
"Yes, I'm coming back to stay... That is if it's ok with you." She said with a semi-sarcastic tone. Naruto smiled even through his exhaustion.
"It's ok as long as your bad habits remain part of your past."
"You better watch your mouth brat or I'll have you and your team perform D-rank missions for a month!" Tsunade threatened as Naruto's smile faded, making everyone crack up in a fit of laughter.
"THAT'S NOT FUNNY!"
"Oink-oink!"
"AH TONTON! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU COME FROM?!"
[*.*.*.*]
Naruto walked with a spring in his step, smiling widely and with his eyes closed shut. He was so happy and excited to get Tsunade back to Konoha and heal the one person that made his life meaningful. While his mom almost meant a lot to him, she hadn't been there as long as Hinata has. It didn't necessarily mean that he didn't want his mother to wake up or anything; just that his anticipation for Hinata's awakening was more… anticipated.
With a loud, content sigh, Naruto fell in step with his traveling partners who were walking behind the hyper active blond a second ago. Naruto just couldn't remove the smile out of his face, he knew nothing would. Everything was right in the world or at least in another two minutes as he saw the front gates that led to Konoha's shopping district.
Happy-go-lucky, eager, impatient, zealous, all words could be used to describe the emotions that ran through Naruto's mind. He wanted to just sprint all the way down to the hospital and get to work on Hinata, so she could get up and he could see her wonderful and beautiful lavender eyes.
Tsunade eyed the boy with amusement and inner joy. He was so determined to bring her to Konoha just so she could heal the boy's first love that it was starting to get entertaining. At first, Tsunade thought that was all he wanted, that he was only bringing her back so she could heal the girl up and then be thrown away like a used up napkin. That was the impression she got before she and Naruto had a small talk not too long ago.
Tsunade walked down the trail with Jiraiya and Shizune with Tonton in her hands and were in front of her. Tsunade sighed as she looked up at the sky with slight wonder and depression. In the last week, she had gone from a hopeless wonderer with a gambling and drinking problem to a Hokage with a gambling and drinking problem. It was also in that same week that two different people fought one another just so she could side with them.
Was that all she really was, a prize to be won after a duel? To be used until she was no longer useful and thrown away? That's basically why she was coming back to Konoha, to heal the wounded and lead a village full of hypocrites and morons. And why? Because Naruto had won against her old teammate, so to speak. He had been able to convince her that she should side with him instead of Orochimaru.
"Hey Baa-chan, what's wrong?" Tsunade felt a vein pop out of her head and she struggled not to punch the kid all the way back to Konoha.
"I told you to stop calling me that!" Tsunade said loudly. She looked at Naruto and saw him eye smiling at her with his hands behind his back as he walked forward. He had his head turned to her as he walked to the left of her.
"Yes you did but it's no fun if I just called you Tsunade-sama." Tsunade grunted and looked away.
"Yeah well what do you want brat?" She asked.
"I don't want anything more than what I've already asked of you. But what I would like is to know what's bothering you?" He asked carefully. Tsunade looked at Naruto in the eyes and saw the seriousness in his eyes and sighed.
"What do you care brat? All you need is for someone to heal your girlfriend and mom and that's it. You could probably careless what's bothering me." Tsunade said.
"That's not true." Naruto stated, shocking Tsunade. "Of course I care. I wouldn't have asked if I didn't care. While it is true that you are coming back to Konoha to heal my mom and girlfriend, you're also part of my family now." Naruto said with an eye smile. Tsunade was speechless as she watched Naruto with clear disbelief.
"F-Family?" She stuttered. Naruto nodded his head and looked ahead of him.
"Family... You're now part of my family. Why, I have no clue but you just are. I got this feeling that's telling me that you're part of my family now baa-chan." Naruto looked back at her and she could see a large smile under his mask. "Sucks for you!" He commented before walking faster to catch up to Jiraiya.
Tsunade had stayed behind and thought over Naruto's words.
"Family huh?" Tsunade wiped away the single tear that had accumulated on her left eye. She flicked the tear off her index finger and smiled. "I like the sound of that."
Unseen to the group, the tear landed on a single *coltsfoot, sliding down its yellow pedal and onto the ground.
"Ero-sennin! Baa-chan! Shizune-nee-chan! Do you see it?! Do ya?" He asked with an infinite amount of energy. Jiraiya and Tsunade sweat dropped as they each lowered their head so only Shizune could hear what they were about to say.
"Why do you get the normal nickname?" They asked in a monotonous voice. Shizune couldn't help but sweat dropped and chuckle sheepishly. After a few minutes of walking and ignoring Naruto on Jiraiya, Tsunade and Shizune's parts, they walked into Konoha. Tsunade took a step forward and looked around Konoha. She smiled nostalgically. Not much changed except for the area where Shukaku was released and destroyed a couple of buildings.
Tsunade looked down as she was pulled forward by Naruto.
"Come on baa-chan, the hospital's this way. You'll love Hinata-chan, she's funny, smar-" Naruto stopped talking as he felt his skin pale and his sense go on alert. He turned his head as the presence he felt a second ago confirm his worse fear.
"Naruto-kun!" Many girls cheered as they rushed towards him. Naruto sweat dropped as he turned to Tsunade with a sheepish chuckle.
"Actually, I'll be seeing you baa-chan. I first got to lose these maniacal girls and then I'll meet you in the hospital. Bye!" Naruto said with a swirl of wind and leaves. His fan girls smirked as at least half of them did just as Naruto had done and continued their search for the masked blond haired genin. Tsunade, Jiriaya and Shizune watched in incredulity and astonishment. Tsunade glared at Jiraiya who quickly coward back.
"I thought he said he had only one girlfriend?" Tsunade asked. Jiraiya nodded his head quickly.
"H-He does."
"So why does he have have the kunoichi populace chasing after him?" She asked through clenched teeth.
"I-I don't know, I guess he was a very popular kid when he was younger." Tsunade came face to face with Jiraiya with an evil gleam in her eyes.
"If I find out you've been teaching the kid more than just jutsus…"
"I haven't, promise." Jiraiya answered quickly, making Tsunade back off, accepting his answer. She shrugged her stiff shoulders and headed for the hospital.
"Well, let's go to the hospital, not like anyone else can heal whoever I'm supposed to heal." Shizune sweat dropped at this as she lazily fell in behind her master. Jiraiya was about to leave when Tsunade yelled. "You're coming too you no good pervert." Jiraiya groaned as he hung his head in defeat and walked beside Shizune as the trio headed towards the hospital.
[*.*.*.*]
Naruto yelled at the top of his voice as he dodged under kunai after kunai. His fan girls weren't necessarily aiming to kill or anything, just to tie his clothes down to something or at least make him slow down some. Grabbing the swords that were behind his back and unsheathing them, Naruto turned around and blocked the kunais as he ran backwards.
The fan girls squealed at this, confusing Naruto even more.
"He's so talented! He can block and still run backwards." One fan girl yelled. Naruto almost tripped over his feet; that was the stupidest thing he's ever heard. He shook his head and turned back around to run normally and continued to dodge the hail of kunai and shuriken.
'Gotta think, gotta think.' Naruto repeated as he started to think of his options. He had a mob of fan girls after him and to make it worse, they were kunoichi. They were using lethal force to subdue him and do… whatever it is they wanted to do with him. They were all mid ranged from average genin to low chunnin.
He was a jinchuuriki with half the village populace hating him for it, a fourth crushing on him for his mysterious nature and mask, and the last fourth were just indifferent. He was starting to like the indifferent portion more and more these days. Anyways, he was also trained in the ways of the Immortal and the student of the elusive Kakashi Hatake, the infamous clan murderer Itachi Uchiha and Jiraiya of the Sannin.
Granted that the lazy and chronically late sensei didn't really teach him anything and that the old pervert just left him to work on the jutsus himself, he did learn a thing or two from his last and third teacher. Naruto closed his eyes as he jumped off the roof of the building he was on and ran into the woods. Itachi's words rang in his head as he smirked.
"Stealth; an important term for a shinobi to know and practice." Itachi had his eyes closed and in the lotus position. Across from him was Naruto in the lotus position as well. "However, not everyone was meant for this and you, Naruto, are one of those people." Itachi raised his hand up to stop Naruto from speaking up.
"Yes, you are very stealthy when you need to be but you are not that type of shinobi. You are more of the heads-on, powerhouse type. This isn't necessarily bad but it could get you in a tight spot. That is why I am going to teach you a genjutsu."
"But I don't have the chakra control to handle genjutsus. If I did, I'm pretty sure I'd have a whole arsenal of them along with nin and taijutsu." Naruto said but Itachi smirked.
"I know that, that is why I will show you a genjutsu that doesn't need that much chakra control, just a lot of chakra." Naruto gave Itachi all his attention as he started to explain the fundamentals of the genjutsu.
'Time to see if it paid off.' Naruto thought as he made short work of the hand signs.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" A second Naruto appeared in front of the original Naruto, not letting the fan girls know that he had made a clone.
Naruto hid behind a tree as the original clone ran passed, followed by the mob of fan girls. With another set of hand signs, Naruto focused a lot of his chakra into the surrounding area. The fan girls faltered a little in their step but after still seeing Naruto running in front of them, they still pressed forward.
Naruto laughed after he saw his clone and the fan girls stop in a screeching halt.
"Demonic Illusion: Double False Surroundings, check. Just to make sure…" Naruto made more and signs and smirked as the second genjutsu was secured. "Demonic Illusion: Double False Surroundings."
Naruto turned on his heel and headed straight for the hospital.
'Just hold on a little longer Hinata-chan, I'm coming!'
[*.*.*.*]
Tsunade marched up the hallway of the hospital's fourth floor with a smug look. The doctors and nurses she passed by all stopped what they were doing only to prove that they hadn't gone insane.
Tsunade of the Sannin, best medical nin Konoha has ever produced, had returned. Shizune and Jiraiya followed behind her with pride in their master and friend. She suddenly stopped and Jiraiya and Shizune each cocked an eye brow.
"What's wrong Tsunade-sama?" Shizune asked. Tsunade smiled and chuckled sheepishly.
"I don't know where I'm going." She admitted, making Shizune sweat drop and Jiraiya to face fault.
---------
After finally finding the right room, Tsunade, Jiraiya and Shizune entered and examined the person on the bed.
"So this is her?" Tsunade asked and Jiraiya nodded.
"One of the two people you need to heal. I'm sure by now you know how important it is that she awakens." Jiraiya said making Tsunade nod her head.
"So what exactly is wrong with her?" Tsunade asked. A random nurse came in the room with a shy smile on her face. She handed a chart to Tsunade and quickly left the room. Tsunade looked at Jiraiya and Shizune who each shrugged their shoulders in confusion. Tsunade read the chart she was given and her eyes widened after finishing.
"And she's still alive after all of this?" She asked, not really expecting an answer.
"What else would you expect from the woman who gave birth to Naruto?" Tsunade turned around to see Minato smiling with his arms crossed over his chest. He had his back against the window that was not open a few seconds ago. Tsunade looked at him as if she's seen a ghost. "So can you heal her?" He asked in a serious expression.
"Y-Yeah but, aren't you supposed to be, well you know, dead?" She asked amidst her hysteria. Minato nodded his head.
"Yes I am but after some complications thanks to Orochimaru and some sealsg, I'm alive and well now." Minato said but it wasn't enough for Tsunade.
"I find that very hard to believe." She said and Minato sighed.
"Ok, it's like this. Orochimaru used a jutsu to bring me back to life. Afterwards, he tried to use a seal to control me but I was able to overpower it and bend it to my will. While Jiraiya and Naruto went looking for you, I decided to research the seal. I managed to decode the matrix of it and sort of messed it." Minato said with a faint blush on his face.
"So now…" Jiraiya said, trying to urge his student to continue.
"So now, I basically got my body back. Thanks to the fact that Orochimaru used my original DNA to support my structure, I was able to make it dominant in this body and now it's mine to command, so to speak." Minato concluded. Everyone in the room was speechless. Jiraya ended the silence with his laughter as he leaned on Tsunade.
"I told you he was a genius!" He yelled. Tsunade grunted as she rapidly got out from under Jiraiya, prompting him to fall on his face. She then grabbed both Jiraiya and Minato and shoved them out of the room.
"Be that as it may, I still need both of you to get out of the room so I can start the healing process." Tsunade then slammed the door and Jiraiya and Minato looked at each other.
"Did she…" Jiraiya nodded at Minato's unfinished question. "Should we…" Jiraiya shook his head at this one. "So what…" Jiraiya shrugged his shoulders. Minato sighed and shook his own head.
"Let's go back to my place; at least I'm sure we won't get kicked out there."
"Actually, now it's called the Uzumaki Compound." Jiraiya stated.
"What?! That woman took my house too?" Jiraiya nodded. "Whatever, at least I know I bought the house." Jiraiya followed after Minato without another word, knowing that there was nothing to be said after what had just occurred.
After reaching their home, Minato could only take two steps forward before coldness of metal touched his neck and threatened to slice it open. Minato moved his eye to the left and cobalt eyes looked into another set of cold, cobalt ones.
"Is this some kind of joke?" Naruto rhetorically asked in an angered tone. "Is someone really trying to break into my house pretending to be my dad?" He continued as his voice became lower, more dangerous.
Minato felt a drop of sweat roll down his face. He has faced an army of high level shinobi and been able to bring them all down without batting an eye. But suddenly his own son has been able catch him off guard and almost scare him out of his skin. Minato cursed his own carelessness and bad luck as his son wasn't giving an inch. His form was perfect for such a situation and even seemed to have a back up if he should get out of this.
"This isn't a joke-" Minato stopped short when Naruto applied more pressure against his throat. Naruto's sword was able to break some skin as a small amount of blood flowed down Naruto's blade.
"You expect me to believe that my father, the Fourth Hokage, who sealed the Kyuubi in me and died doing so, came back from the dead because he forgot to get something from his house?" Naruto asked. The sound of something traveling through the air reached Naruto's ear and he jumped away from Minato and dodged the lethal weapon. Naruto looked up and saw Jiraiya glaring at him.
"What the hell are you doing?" Jiraiya asked.
"What's it look like, I'm defending my home." Naruto looked up and glared at Minato who was holding his neck with his right hand. He removed his hand and the cut Naruto made healed quickly and not even a scar remained. Naruto's glare intensified and he dropped to his battle stance. "This is the first and last time I ask this… who are you really?" Naruto asked.
"I'm your father." Minato said with a serious tone. With fast reflexes, he took out his kunai and blocked Naruto's double vertical arcs. Naruto struggled as did Minato as both applied a lot of pressure into the strike. Naruto shifted his weight to his left leg and kicked Minato in the gut with his right leg. Minato flew back and into the front yard. He used the momentum from the kick to roll back and jump to his feet.
He threw the three pronged kunai at Naruto who was charging towards him. Naruto shifted the grip of the sword so that the blade was pointing downward. He parried it off but not before noticing the peculiarity of its structure. It was similar to the one the Fourth used to use the…
"I don't want to hurt you son." A voice said behind Naruto. Naruto looked behind him to see Minato holding the same kunai he threw against Naruto's neck. Naruto's eyes widened before they narrowed and he threw his swords off to the side. Minato slowly lowered his kunai and took a step back from Naruto.
Naruto however was far from done, he fell on all fours and then brought his left leg up and it connected with Minato's chin. Naruto flipped back while simultaneously grabbing a kunai from his pouch.
Minato landed with a grunt and pain traveling up and down his spine. Naruto then landed over him and held a kunai in his face, right above his nose.
"Naruto he really is your father!" Jiraiya yelled but Naruto didn't move.
"How do I know that for sure… how do you ero-sennin?!" Naruto yelled.
"I am your father!" Minato all but whispered.
"How did you seal Kyuubi into me, dad?! Naruto asked.
"I used the Sealing Jutsu: Reaper Death Seal and used the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style to let you access Kyuubi's chakra over time." Minato answered without hesitation. Naruto's grip on the kunai faltered but only for a nano-second.
"Is the rasengan a completed jutsu?" Naruto asked, still unsure that Minato is his actual dad.
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because I planned on adding an element with it but because of my premature death, I was unable to finish it." He answered again but Naruto refused to submit.
"Who's my mother?"
"Kushina Uzumaki." With each passing question answered, Naruto's grip on the kunai wavered. Suddenly, he couldn't even hold the kunai straight and Naruto titled his head forward so his bangs covered his eyes.
"Last one… why…" Minato looked at his son with worry. Naruto raised his head and silent tears trailed down his cheek. "Why did you use me… to seal the Kyuubi into?" Minato looked away from Naruto, too ashamed to look at Naruto in the eyes. "WHY YOU'RE OWN SON?!"
Minato refused to look at Naruto, he couldn't face his son with this, not yet anyways. Naruto closed his eyes and with a yell, pushed the kunai forward. Minato closed his eyes but felt nothing touch him. He opened them again and saw that Naruto was nowhere to be seen. He sat up and saw that Jiraiya had a solemn expression on his face, looking away from him as well. Next to him, Minato spotted Naruto's kunai but his swords were gone.
"I really did it this time." Minato stated, unconcerned on who heard him.
[*.*.*.*]
Naruto scaled the hospital's outer wall until he was outside a window on the fourth floor. He carefully opened the window and snuck into the room. He turned around and saw Tsunade and Shizune standing over Hinata's unconscious form with green liquid in their hands. Naruto didn't want to make them mess up so he waited until they finished to ask what they were doing.
Nartuo took this opportunity of obliviousness to wipe the remaining tears out of his eyes. Then Naruto scowled when he saw the green liquid remove some black thing that came out of Hinata. Shizune then carefully moved it over to an empty pan and let it drop.
Shizune then wiped some sweat off her forehead and realized that Naruto was in the room. She smiled at him and walked over to where he was.
"Hey Naruto-kun." She said in a merry tone. Naruto cocked an eye brow at this.
"Hey Shizune-nee-chan. What're you and baa-chan doing with Hinata-chan?" Shizune looked back at Tsunade who hardly noticed that she had left her side.
"When we found out about the agent in Hinata's head, we gathered up the ingredients we need to form a special type of liquid. With it we can carefully extract the agent while at the same time repair the damage said agent has caused. After the agent is drawn out, it can be used to create an antidote or medicine, which can then be given to the patient to ensure a complete recovery.
"This technique requires the utmost care and ability in diagnosis and incising and unmatched chakra control. Therefore, it is considered an extremely difficult technique, even among medical ninjutsu. That's probably why they need Tsunade-sama and me to heal her." Shizune explained. Again, Naruto didn't understand it completely but did get the gist of it so he smiled and nodded.
Not much time later, Tsunade let out a sigh and removed the sweat from her head with her forearm. Naruto immediately stood and walked over to Tsunade.
"So… is she going to be alright?" Naruto asked. Tsunade looked at him oddly before smiling. She walked over to him and ruffled his hair.
"Yeah, she should be fine now. We got the agent out and we should have the antidote ready before tomorrow." Naruto smiled brightly and he even chuckled. Sounds of moaning were heard behind Tsunade and everyone turned to see Hinata's eyes squinting and struggling to wake up. "Come on Shizune, I'm sure they're more people who still need our help." Tsunade said with a wink and Shizune smiled.
Both left the room and Naruto watched as they did. He was glad Tsunade didn't have to leave Konoha, Shizune as well. Before he thought of anything else, he heard Hinata groan again.
"Naruto…kun…" He heard her say in a raspy voice. Naruto ran into the bathroom in the room with a cup and filled it up with water. He came out a second later and ran towards Hinata's side. He put the cup of water on her nightstand and sat down in the chair closest to her. "Naruto-kun…" She said again. Naruto reached for her right hand and placed it between his left and right hand.
"It's ok Hinata-hime, I'm here." Hinata closed her eyes even harder until they fluttered open. Her vision was blurry and she closed her eyes again. She opened them again and this time her vision was better. She rubbed her left eye with her left hand but felt some resistance on her right hand. She looked down and was barely able to make out her own hand being held down by somebody else's. She slowly looked up and saw someone's face with very bright blond hair.
"N-Naruto…kun?" She asked hesitantly. Naruto let go of her right arm so she could rub her right eye. After doing so, Hinata looked back at Naruto while repetitively blinking. After a while, she smiled as she was finally able to see Naruto. "Naruto-kun, it is you." She said with tears in her eyes. Naruto handed her the cup of water and she drank it.
She put the cup back on the night stand and looked at Naruto. He too had a few tears in his eyes but the smile he had was just how she remembered it; charming and sincere. Naruto moved himself from the chair to Hinata's bed where without uttering a word, wrapped Hinata in a hug. Hinata hugged him back without hesitation and started crying in his chest. Naruto let her cry for a few minutes before gently taking her chin and making her look up into his eyes.
Hinata was taken aback at the amount of sadness, joy and love she saw in Naruto's cerulean eyes. They told her of the loneliness he went through without her, the sadness he experience and the love and joy he got from seeing her wake up.
Naruto was breathless; Hinata's perfect lavender eyes seemed to pierce through his very soul and read him like a book. In the few seconds they stared into each other's eyes, both could once again feel each other's pain, joy and love they radiated.
"Naruto-ku-" Naruto pressed his lips against Hinata's before she could finish saying his name. Hinata closed her eyes and kissed him backing, sorely missing the feel of his lips perfectly in place with her own. Their mouth moved in perfect harmony as Naruto opened her mouth and gently nibbled on Hinata's lower lip. Without pause, Hinata opened her mouth and allowed his tongue entry.
Their tongues danced to the beat of their flawlessly in sync heartbeats and cherished every minute of it. Naruto raised his hand and wiped the tears out of Hinata's cheeks and eyes. Soon their tongues tired and they knew they would need to break for air. Slowly, Naruto started to break the kiss, hesitant on leaving her lips.
Hinata was breathless as she started to pant with Naruto in a similar state.
"I love you…" He said in a winded voice. Hinata smiled and hugged Naruto tightly.
"I love you too Naruto-kun." That was when Naruto broke down and started to sob on Hinata's shoulder. He tightened his hold on Hinata and she patted his back in comfort.
"I thought I would've lost you Hinata-chan… I swear I did. For a while, I thought you weren't going to wake up and… and I… I would've followed you." Naruto admitted. "If you weren't here with me Hinata-chan, I would've made sure I'd follow you." Naruto continued. Hinata placed a tender hand on his cheek. Naruto leaned into it before Hinata reared it back a little and slapped Naruto in the face.
Naruto looked at Hinata in shock. She was staring back with sad and angered eyes.
"Don't ever say that… please don't." She said as more tears escaped their imprisonment. "Promise me if I die, you won't kill yourself."
"Hinata-chan…"
"Promise me!" She yelled.
"No!" He yelled back. "I won't because you know just as much as I do that you'd do the same for me. If I died, I'm sure you'd do the same. No matter if I wouldn't want you too, I know you enough to know that you would anyways." Naruto laid a tender kiss on her lips before laying his forehead on hers. "If you can promise me that if I die, you won't follow, then I'll do the same."
Hinata looked away for a while before returning her gaze onto his eyes. She slowly shook her head.
"I-I can't… do it." She said and Naruto gave her another longer kiss.
"I know, and as much as I don't want you to, I'd know you'd do it." He said after parting for air. Naruto brought Hinata closer to him as he moved next to her and lay down on the bed with her. She tried her hardest to suppress a yawn as she looked at the clock and saw that it was seven minutes to eight p.m. She looked up at him and saw that he had his eyes closed. Hinata smiled as she snuggled his chest.
"Hinata-chan?" Naruto asked.
"Hm?" She answered.
"Are you sleepy?" Hinata nodded tiredly and yawned. Naruto chuckled as he moved to get up but was stopped by Hinata who held him down. "What is it Hinata-chan?" Hinata blushed and started drawing circles on his chest with her left index finger.
"I-I was wonder… if you could… stay with me t-tonight." She said, making Naruto's smile to widen.
"Of course Hinata-chan." He pulled the covers from under them and put it over them. Once they were in a good position, both Hinata and Naruto drifted off to sleep, comfortable in each other's arms.
Sometime later, Tsunade walked in to see Naruto and Hinata cuddled up, sleeping and smiling. She smiled and couldn't find it in her heart to wake the two teens, so she closed the door and sighed.
"I think you should come at a later time Hiashi-san, she's terribly tired and is currently sleeping." Hiashi looked slightly disappointed or so Tsunade thought but his expression returned to its usual stoic one.
"I see. Can I come back tomorrow then?" He asked and Tsunade nodded her head. "Good evening Tsunade-sama." Hiashi bowed and then left. Tsunade bowed back and went to Kushina, sure that she was awake by now.
---------
Hinata awoke with a start and shivered. She felt Naruto's grip on her side tense up and held her closer. Hinata looked around and saw that she was in the hospital. She also saw that she was still in Naruto's arms; the left side of her body was right over his left side both their left legs were intertwined together. She looked up at him and saw that he was looking down at her.
"What's wrong Hinata-hime?" He asked. She blushed and gulped.
"I-I'm sorry I woke you up N-Naruto-kun." She stuttered.
"Forget about it, so what's wrong?" He asked again. Hinata rested her head on his chest and heaved a sigh.
"I had a nightmare?" She confessed.
"Oh, about what?" He asked.
"That you died, trying to protect me." She continued.
"Did I protect you?" He asked.
"Y-Yes." She said with a darker blush. Naruto could only smile a fox-like smile.
"Even in your dreams, I'll be there to make sure you're safe." He said and kissed the top of her head. Naruto started to make circles on his chest again and Naruto took this as a sign that she still had more on her mind. "Is there something you want to talk about?"
"A-Actually, there is." Hinata got on top of Naruto and nothing about her was touching the bed except her long, indigo hair. Naruto blushed furiously as he felt her breast poke his chest. He ignored his inappropriate thoughts as he focused his attention on Hinata. "Y-You… you love me r-right?" She asked.
"Of course… even when in death's door, I will continue to love you." He kissed her gently in the lips and she smiled.
"And you know I love you, r-right?" Naruto nodded his head. "Naruto-kun, I… I want to go to the next l-level."
"Next level?" He asked, still unsure of what she meant.
"I mean…" Hinata looked away with a dark shade of red on her face. "I-I want to go all the way… with you and only you." Naruto's facial expression turned into one of shock and blushed just as dark as Hinata.
"H-Hinata-chan… A-Are you s-sure? This is a big step." He asked. Hinata just nodded.
"In my dream Naruto-kun, I realized… we can die in any mission we receive, whether or not it's a simple C-rank or an S-rank. Remember how dangerous our first C-rank mission was?" Naruto remembered thinking that Hinata had died. He prayed that that never happens again. "I don't want to go out on missions… with regrets. I want my first time to be with you Naruto-kun." She confessed. Naruto was having an internal struggle.
On one hand, he wanted to do it just as much as she did. He knew that when they chose to take the path of the shinobi, they accepted the reality that they could die while out carrying out their responsibilities as Konoha shinobi. So with that in mind, they also knew that they might never comeback home one day, leaving behind their loved ones and possessions. Add to the fact that a group of S-rank rogue shinobis were after him for the being sealing inside of him and his odds to dying were even higher than normal shinobis.
He had very limited amount of time to live a leisure life and if he didn't take this opportunity then who knows if he ever will.
On the other hand, he didn't want to rush things. If they were to go all the way, what would he do if he got Hinata pregnant? What then? Her father and clan would hate him and might even makeher abandon the unborn child and just marry her off to some random suitor. He would not let that happen even if it was the last thing he'd do.
"Naruto-kun…" Naruto was brought out of his thoughts when she said his name. He looked up to pleading lavender eyes. "Please."
[*.*.WARNING:LEMON.*.*]
Naruto hesitated for a second more before he kissed Hinata passionately in the lips. He opened his mouth and licked her bottom lip. She allowed him entrance and her tongue fought his tongue for dominance. She grabbed his blond locks and went through them.
As they continued to fight for dominance, Naruto rolled over so he was on top of her. He broke the kiss and then started to attack her neck. Taking a short break he said in a winded tone.
"I will do this only because you asked for it my hime." Hinata smiled gleefully and moaned as Naruto started to kiss her neck again. His hands wondered down her hospital gown and started to massage her slim stomach. She shivered under the spark she felt as his fingers passed over her skin. They traveled upward and started to massage both breast. Hinata moaned loudly as he continued his assault on her breast. An idea came to mind and Naruto started to make hand signs then placed his hand on the wall in front of him.
"I placed a silencing jutsu over the room so no one… well, you know, hears us." Hinata blushed and nodded her head. Naruto then made a shadow clone to lock the door and after doing so, he dispersed himself. With everything over with, Naruto went to remove Hinata's hospital gown. Hinata put her hands up to make it easier to remove.
Before she could put them down, Naruto grabbed both of her wrists with his left hand and kept them over her head. Hinata blushed and had to bit her lips down to not let the exotic moan escape her lips. Naruto started to leave a trail of kisses from her collar bone down to the base of her breast. With both of her hands preoccupied, Naruto used his free hand to knead Hinata's left breast while he moved his mouth over her right breast start sucking on it. He licked around her nipple and once in a while affectionately nibbled on it, making it harder for her to resist moaning.
Hinata couldn't hold it in as she let out a louder moan, making Naruto smile as he continued to lick Hinata's breast. Replacing his left hand with his right, Naruto used his now free left hand to knead Hinata's right breast and took in her other one with his mouth. Hinata was enjoying the treatment she was receiving and Naruto was more than happy to give it to her.
After releasing her left breast from his mouth, he gently blew at the wet part of her breast. Hinata arched her back as the new sensation stimulated her senses.
"Ah, Naruto-kun… d-don't stop." She said, clearly breathless. Naruto smiled as he blew at her nipple again. Another moan escaped her lips and Naruto couldn't help but feel his pants get smaller. Naruto then grabbed her wrists with both hands which were still over her head and kissed her lips again. This time, Hinata kissed back hungrily and stuck her tongue in his mouth. Not one to be outdone, Naruto fought back with his own tongue and a new battle ensued in Hinata' mouth.
Naruto slowly moved his hands down Hinata's arms down to her body, lingering as he did to memorize the smoothness of her skin, then cupping her breasts and rubbing against them once more. Hinata whined with pleasure, allowing Naruto make her submit and break the kiss.
Hinata was panting heavily and looked about ready to pass out from all of the excitement. Naruto lowered his mouth to her ear and smirked.
"Hang on my hime, we're not done yet." Hinata felt her heart beat quicken as Naruto moved down to her womanhood. Naruto slowly separated her legs and the smell of her sweet juice on her sky blue panties assaulted his nose. His heart quickened its pace as a sigh of content passed through his nose.
Spreading her legs a little more, Naruto left a trail of kisses on both sides of her inner thigh. Hinata moaned as his kisses were getting closer to her womanhood. With one last kiss placed above her panties, Naruto removed them and stared in awe of Hinata's amazing body. It laid in front of him in all its glory and Naruto couldn't help but feel happy and blessed.
Her creamy skin just glistened with his saliva and some of her sweat as the moon's light shone through the open window. The softness and texture of her skin was calling out to him, asking him to please her. Naruto absentmindedly rubbed her legs as his eyes were glued on her magnificent body.
"N-Naruto-kun?" Hinata said, a little uncomfortable with him staring at her like that. It made her feel like he was trying to judge her or something.
"I-I'm sorry Hinata-hime, I was just admiring your body…" Naruto looked at her in the eyes and blushed. "But it still can't compare to the beauty of your eyes." Hinata smiled warmly and Naruto sighed again. "Hold on."
Naruto moved in front of Hinata's entrance and licked the outer juices from it. Hinata gasped at the pleasure and her back tensed up. Naruto continued to lick her until most of the juices were gone. With that done, Naruto placed his lips on her lower ones and lapped it with his tongue, going up and down without stop. Hinata moaned as this new feeling enveloped her entire being. She arched her back and grabbed the pillow behind her head.
After a while, Naruto stuck his tongue into her, tasting her inner walls and constantly brushing them. Hinata's moan intensified as her back reached higher levels. Having nothing to do with his hands, Naruto moved them up and each groped her butt. His hands knead them, squeezed them, pushed them together and even lightly slapped them.
Hinata bit down on her lip as she felt herself nearing her climax. She wrapped her legs around his head, hoping to prolong the inevitable and bring even more pleasure to her. Panting, Hinata was starting to yell Naruto's name out loud.
"N-Naruto-k-kun… ah, I-I feel… like…" She tried to say but had reached her climax before she was able to finish. "NARUTO-KUN!" She yelled as she came all over Naruto's mouth. Naruto licked his lips before cleaning her with his tongue. Hinata was already exhausted but still had enough energy to moan as Naruto finished cleaning her womanhood as best he could.
[*.*.END OF LEMON.*.*]
After he finished, Naruto got up to recover Hinata's hospital gown that was carelessly thrown to the side and helped her put it on. Hinata's eyes were half closed and Naruto watched as her chest came up and down. He smiled again and carefully put her hospital gown on her. She looked at him with sleepy eyes before opening them completely.
"N-Naruto-kun… a-aren't you going t-to…" Naruto put his index finger on her lips to stop her and shook his head.
"No I'm not Hinata-hime." He removed his finger and Hinata could only watch as he got into bed with her. "At least… not this time." He added as he moved his right hand onto the small of her back and brought her body closer to him. She absentmindedly put her right hand over his chest and started to silently rub her back
"But Naruto-kun, don't you want to-"
"I just want you to be happy, my hime." Naruto interrupted.
"But what if…"
"It won't happen. I promise you Hinata-hime, I will always be there for you, to protect you and make sure you are out of harm's way. And If I should die doing so, I will wait faithfully in the dark until your arrival. Whether you follow after me right away, like I'm guessing you would, or live and continue moving forward, like I want you to." Naruto enveloped Hinata in another kiss, this time it was innocent and full of his love for her.
"And don't worry Hinata-hime, we'll have enough time to finish up what we started here." Naruto closed his eyes and smiled. "I have plans for us and the major one I'm working on is marrying you." Hinata looked up, her eyes as wide as saucers.
"Y-You… want to marry…m-me?" Naruto nodded without pause.
"Yup, I plan on making you my wife and even having some kids." Naruto added. Hinata was shocked and had nothing to say. Naruto noticed this and looked at her in the eyes.
"Hinata-hime," Hinata looked back at him after snapping out of her stupor. "When I say 'I love you', I mean I love you. I don't say it just to make myself feel better, I don't say it because I feel obligated. I say it because it's true; I say it because that's how I feel. I plan on making you my wife… unless of course, you don't want to be." He said in a solemn tone.
Hinata started to panic; if she didn't say something soon, she just might lose him forever.
"I-I love you too Naruto-kun and…" She blushed but forced herself to keep eye contact. "I-I'd be very happy to be your wife and maybe… maybe have our own kids." Naruto smiled and lay back on his pillow.
"Someday Hinata-hime, someday we will." Hinata smiled tiredly at him before feeling her eye lids get heavy and close. She hugged Naruto and then felt herself losing consciousness. Naruto was already asleep and Hinata had one last conscious thought before the sleep's siren call put her to sleep.
'I'll be waiting for that day… Naruto-kun…'
That's it, that's chapter 26! I personally thought the lemon was good, why? Cuz it was pretty good for a first attempt...
If you think it wasn't... well that's you... Give me some advice next time so it won't happen again... Oh yeah, I didn't put Kushina's awakening here cuz I didn't want this chapter to run longer than it should... next chapter, I promise that it'll be the first thing that happens...
Anyways, I'm sorry for taking a while to write this but I had some 'research', as Jiraiya puts it, to do... Did you know they're a lot of lemons that are just plain... well the word would be that they 'fuck'... That's not what I want, not for my lemon... I wanted it to be sincere, for real.. not a one-night-stand or a just cuz thing...
Don't think I am criticizing those who write those kinds of lemons... I'm not, I just don't want to type that kind of lemon... I just don't...
Just to let you know, This story still has one more arc before the Sasuke retrieval arc... After that, this story's done... No, not completely done but it'll be a new one... It picks up when Naruto comes back from his three year training and with new enemies and Akatsuki... I still haven't made up my mind whether or not Hinata's gunna join or not...
Gotta an opinion to voice? Let me know, I'd like to hear...
More over, I probably will update the next chapter with as much as I did with this one... Also, the coltsfoot means maternal love and care
Don't forget to review...
Next Chapter: Family fights and hurtful words...
Good luck with whatever and if you got a problem with me or one of my stories, please feel free to: Deal with it, Get over it or Choke on it!
