=annotes Flashback
Sasuke looked down at the water covered ground and noticed a trail of red leaving his hands.
He brought them up to examine them and noticed one of his knuckles was broken.
"D...Dammit, I know I s...should treat this l...like any o...other mission, but I just c...can't. She m...meant too m...much to m...me." he said through hiccups
As Sasuke pondered whether or not to treat this like a normal mission or not, thoughts traveled back to the past.
"Sasuke!" the young girl cried," I fell down off the monkey bars and scraped my knee."
(A/N: for this fic, the Uchiha Residence has a full blown playground in the backyard)
She whimpered as Sasuke took charge of the situation helping the girl up and over to the main house.
When they got there, he led her to the family doctor to have it looked at.
"That's a bad scrape you got there, why don't I bandage it up and see if you feel better after that, ok?" the doctor said with a smile.
"Oh, and Sasuke," the doctor got Sasuke's attention
"Yes sir?" he said with a boyish charm that was unmatched in the Uchiha household.
"Thank you for bringing up here, that scrape might have really gotten bad if you wouldn't have helped." he calmly stated.
"You're welcome, sir." he said, but the doctor interrupted him before he could go any further.
"the one you should be saying that too is so get out there and have fun!"
"Wh..What was her n...name again?" Sasuke tried to recall, but he drew a blank.
"Why am I c..crying if I can't e...even remember her n...name?
He got up and started to head for home, his head swirling with other childhood memories of her.
"Ugh, why is Sasuke so upset?" Naruto asked with his usual stupid expression on his face.
"I don't know Naruto, it might be a lot of things that contributed like the fact he thought she had been massacred with the rest of his family." Kakashi said, nodding as if his idea were definitely the right one.
"Geez, what a softie. I'm goin to Ichiraku" He said, waving to Kakashi from over his shoulder.
"That kid...." Kakashi shook his head chuckling a little as he dissapeared into the slowly setting sun.
"Hey... WHERE DID EVERYONE GO!!!" Sakura yelled as she noticed Kakashi and Naruto were gone.
Naruto walked to Ichiraku humming all the way, and as he passed by one of the many alleys in Konoha, he saw Hinata and three other guys he didn't know.
He heard them say stuff like, "C'mon, you know you want too." etc. etc
Needless to say, Naruto got EXTREMELY pissed that these guys were harassing Hinata that way.
Walking over, he tapped one on the shoulder.
"Yeah? Whaddya want, punk?" the man asked with a sneer on his face.
"I wan't you to leave Hinata alone, you bastard."
"WHAT??? Hey guys this little kid thinks he can fight me one on one!"
Laughter echoed down the alley.
"Just mop the floor with him so we can go and have some fun with her." one of the others said with a perverted smile on his face.
Naruto thought of what Haku taught him in the forest, long ago
"To protect the ones we love, we will become as strong as we must be."
'Why did I think of that?' Naruto wondered, but shook it off almost instantly, for there was a far more important situation at hand.
To the confusion of the street punks, he started making seals.
"Kage Bushin no Jutsu!!!" he yelled, but seemingly nothing happened.
He walked up to the one who was right in front of Hinata and suddenly, he got hit in the head by an extremely strong punch form an extremely pissed off Naruto shadow replication.
Six more jumped down and they commenced to beating the tar out of the three street punks.
Fifteen minutes later, one of the three crawled out of the alley with two broken legs, a broken jaw, three missing teeth and an eye that wasn't functioning properly.
The other two didn't get off as easy, as an ambulance came to get the two of them.
After Naruto and Hinata were a safe distance away from that particular alley, Naruto asked "Why didn't you just use some quick jutsus and get outta there?
"I...I don't know." Hinata confessed.
"Well I'm going to Ichiraku, you wanna come?"
Hinata blushed a furious shade of red as she answered " Y...yes."
The manager of Ichiraku instantly recognized Naruto, but he didn't know the girl next to him so he asked, "Who's your girlfriend?"
Both teens flushed tomato red as Hinata stammered out "Naruto-kun and I a...rn't i...i...in tha...t s..sort of r...elationship."
The manager sighed, "Whatever you say girly, whatever you say."
"Anyways can you get us two bowls of chicken ramen?"
"Sure Naruto, but that'll cost ya $6.60" he said with a smile
Naruto seemed to have suddenly lost his voice as he searched his pockets for his wallet.
"Nooooo, I lost my wallet. Hey, i got an idea! Mister, put it on Iruka's tab."
"Are you sure Naruto?" Hinata asked
"Ya Iruka buys me lunch all the time!!!" he said
'Or he used too, anyway' he thought while reassuring Hinata everything would be alright.
After they finished eating, Naruto felt something strange, the way he felt around Sakura, except extremely intensified.
'Why am I feeling this... unless..."
The realization hit Naruto like a sack of bricks.
'I... I love her. That's why i thought about what Haku said...'
He started talking really fast, saying what he thought he should say.
"HinataIneedyoutoknowsomethin'ithinkilikeyousoihopeyoullunderstand."
"What? I didn't hear a word you said." Hinata said
"OK I'll try to say it slower..." he took a deep breath as he started to repeat what he had said so extremely fast before.
Hinata's eyes lit up in apprehension as he began. "Hinata, I need you to know something."
"What is it, Naruto-kun?"
"I hope you'll understand, but... I think I like you."
Hinata's breath caught as tears welled up in her pure white eyes.
"Na...Naruto-kun, I...I like you too."
"Really? Thats great!!! I...I hope this means we can be close?"
"I hope th...this m...means we...we'll be bo...boyfriend an...and g...g...girlfriend." she said as if in closing
"Yeah I'd like that Hinata. You wan't me to walk you home?"
"That would be great."
Nobody in the village of the hidden leaf thought that at that moment two new lovers would be walking through the sunset towards their destiny.
