Mission: Naruto

Hyuuga Hinata stood in the Hyuuga mansion kitchen chopping vegetables and other ingredients for tonight's dinner along with Haruno Sakura, Yamanaka Ino, and TenTen. The girls, well mostly Ino and Sakura, gossiped and talked away, TenTen and Hinata listened most of the time.

Hinata looked outside the window and spotted the guys outside training and goofing off in Naruto's case. She smiled; Naruto hasn't changed a bit. She watched and giggled as Naruto daringly jumped on Neji's back. She watched her cousin flip the blonde over his back and slam him into the nearest cherry blossom tree. She blinked and giggled again. Naruto irritated her cousin to his last nerve, well he irritated everybody with his childish behavior, but that's what made him Naruto.

"Hinata-chan?" TenTen's voice snapped her out of her trance.

Hinata looked at her and blinked. "Yes TenTen-chan?" she questioned.

"You zoned out there for a minute, mind sharing what you were thinking about?" TenTen asked chopping a carrot.

Hinata looked back out the window. "I-I was w-watching the guys," Hinata answered.

Ino smiled at her. "Looking at a certain someone?" she asked.

Hinata blushed. "N-no," she lied looking back at the vegetables. "I w-was bored."

Sakura stepped by Hinata. "Are you sure Hinata-chan? It's okay if you were, so, how 'bout you tell us."

Hinata played with her fingers. "Well…"

TenTen stopped her. "We know Hinata-chan, Naruto, right? We've known this for awhile, you don't have to explain anything."

Ino smiled. "It's too bad he's as dumb as a doorknob, I can't believe he hasn't noticed yet, half the village knows for Kami's sake."

Sakura looked at Hinata once more. "That's Naruto for you," she proclaimed.

TenTen nodded. "Got to give you credit Hinata, at least you try to do something about it," she snickered.

Ino nodded. "Boys," she mumbled. "I don't know what to do with them anymore."

"I could talk to Naruto if you want me to Hinata-chan," Sakura stated.

"I-It's okay," Hinata said smiling. "I really want him to know, b-but I don't want to t-trouble you Sakura-chan."

"It won't!" Sakura said smiling. "I would love to help."

"Hey when will dinner be done?" Chouji asked digging into his chips walking into the room.

Ino glared at him. "Chouji! Out! We'll call you when we're finish!" she barked. She grabbed the nearest pan and gave him a warning look.

Chouji mumbled and walked out of the kitchen. "It's probably nasty anyway."

TenTen looked out the window. "You know, we should tell them to come in, it'll only be a few minutes," she suggested.

Ino smirked. "I wouldn't mind to round them up," she stated.

Sakura looked at Hinata. "Girls, what do you say we try hooking up Hinata-chan up…with Naruto?" she questioned.

TenTen and Ino smirked looking at Hinata. "Sure," they both agreed.

"W-what?" Hinata questioned. She backed up as TenTen and Sakura walked up to her linking arms and dragging her. "Wait!"

Ino waved as she watched the weapon mistress and the pink-haired ninja drag the Hyuuga heiress out of the room. She walked outside and looked at the boys. Naruto was sitting crossed leg at the tree Neji threw him against, Shikamaru was lying on the grass next to a different tree, Chouji was eating chips watching Lee and Neji spar, and Sasuke was leaning against the side of the house. She placed her hands on her hips and looked around. "Dinner will be ready soon, why don't you all go in the house," she suggested.

None of them budged. She crossed her arms over her chest and walked over to Shikamaru. "Didn't you hear me Shika?" she asked.

Shikamaru opened one of his eyes and looked at her. "Yes," he answered.

She huffed and walked over to Naruto and picked him up by the collar. "Get your ass in that house right now Naruto!" she bellowed.

Naruto looked up at her and snorted. "Is dinner ready?" he asked.

"Almost," Ino answered.

Naruto stood up. "Fine," he started walking toward the house putting his hands behind his head.

Ino looked at the other boys. "This might be awhile," she sighed.

Sakura smiled and looked through Hinata's closet. "What do you think you should wear Hinata-chan?" she asked. She pulled out a different coat that looked like the one she was wearing and put it back in.

Hinata looked at her and shrugged. "A-anything." She sat on her bed and TenTen joined her.

"Something cute," Sakura said to herself. "Really really cute." She turned around and looked at Hinata. "All you have in here are coats."

Hinata pointed to another door and Sakura walked to it and opened it revealing dresses. Sakura smiled and looked through them. There were some like her own dress, but different colors. She spotted one that was perfect.

Ino managed to get Lee in and Neji, Sasuke and Shikamaru were left. She walked up to Sasuke, then turned back around, it would be pointless to try to get him in, he'll go on his own like Neji. She looked at Shikamaru. "Get your lazy ass up now Nara Shikamaru!"

Shikamaru looked at her and mumbled. Ino walked up to him and bopped him on the head. "C'mon, move ya lazy ass!" She grabbed him by his wrists and pulled him up. Shikamaru groaned and started walking toward the house her following behind him.

"Much better Shika!" she said cheerfully. She looked at Sasuke. "Coming? I'm sure you're hungry just standing there!" she pushed her old teammate into the house and shut the door knowing Sasuke would come in later.

"What?" Hinata questioned as Sakura showed her the dress. It was blue had slits that went to her knees. To her all of the dresses in there were relieving even though they really weren't.

TenTen plugged in the curling iron. "Let's start already."

Sakura pushed Hinata in the seat and started working on her hair, putting just a few curls in. TenTen sat on the bed watching. Sakura bit her bottom lip and moved Hinata's bangs away from her face. A few minutes and Hinata's hair was done, curled at the ends.

Sakura handed her the blue dress. "You look great! Now get dressed!" she beamed half-pushing Hinata in the bathroom.

Ino walked in and wiped sweat from her brow. "I finished the dinner."

Hinata came out playing with her fingers. The dress looked cute on her, it fit her figure just right and her hair was beyond cute. The girls smiled and nodded.

"Don't worry Hinata-chan something already told me Naruto already likes you, he's just got to smarten up, tonight he will," Sakura proclaimed.

TenTen, Ino, and Sakura walked into the kitchen first. The table was set and all the guys were already sitting down, a little annoyed wondering what took the girls too long. Chouji spotted them and started to dig in like he hadn't eaten in days.

Naruto looked at the three girls. "Where's Hinata-chan?" he asked.

Neji looked up from the food and looked at TenTen asking the same question without saying words just giving her that look.

TenTen smiled weakly then looked at Sakura.

"She'll be down in a few!" Ino squealed.

Shikamaru looked at her with one of his eyebrows upraised. She was acting off.

Sakura sat down smiling and dug in. She gave Naruto a sweet smile then looked at the food.

Sasuke looked at Sakura then glared at Naruto. Naruto shrugged a sweat-drop rolling down the side of his head.

Naruto looked behind him to the entrance of the kitchen. He stood up and walked to it. "Hinata-chan the food is ready!" he shouted.

The three female ninjas' eyes twitched. They looked at Naruto. "Sit your ass down Naruto, she'll be down when she's ready!" Ino bellowed.

Naruto looked at her with a questionable look. "Ready? Ready for what?" he asked closing his eyes.

"Just sit Naruto!" Sakura demanded. Naruto walked over to the table and sat down. A few minutes later Hinata walked in blushing a bit.

Shikamaru looked up at Hinata then looked at Ino who was smiling.

Neji nearly swallowed his spoon. "What are you wearing?" he asked. His cousin never once wore any of the dresses in her closet, well he was sure she didn't.

Naruto turned around looking at Hinata. "It's called a dress Hyuuga," he answered looking back at Neji. He turned back to Hinata. "You look…nice."

Ino slapped herself on her forehead. 'He really is an idiot!' she screamed in her mind.

Sakura's eye twitched. "Why don't you sit here Hinata-chan?" she asked referring to the seat next to her in the middle of herself and Naruto. Hinata hid her blush and sat down where Sakura wished her to.

Neji looked at TenTen with one eyebrow upraised. "What's this about?" he asked whispering.

"Just watch," TenTen stated.

Ino looked at the clock. "Ooh look at the time…it's time for me, Chouji, and Shika to do that 'thing'!" she proclaimed.

"What thing?" Shikamaru asked looking at her.

She nudged him hard in the stomach. He looked at her one of his eyes closed and his arms holding onto his stomach. "That 'THING'!" she spat between her teeth.

She stood up and grabbed both Shikamaru and Chouji's collars. "We'll be going!"

"Wait the food!" Chouji protested. It was too late; his blonde friend already dragged him away.

TenTen stood up. "The dinner was great, but Neji, Lee, and I have to meet Gai-sensei," she stated.

"We do?" Lee asked.

TenTen glared at him stomping on his foot that was under the table. "Yes we do!"

Lee grabbed his food and mumbled. "Okay…jeez!"

TenTen looked at Neji and singled him to the door. The three of them left.

Sakura waved then looked at the table. It was only her, Sasuke, Naruto, and Hinata left. She had already thought of her excuse. She smiled. "Thanks for having me over Hinata-chan, but Sasuke-kun and I don't want to be late for the movie!" she stated.

Sasuke looked at her. He was getting the hint after TenTen and her team left that the girls planned on leaving Naruto and Hinata alone. "Right, I almost forgot," he said standing up.

Sakura smiled. "See ya later, Hinata-chan, Naruto. Naruto you wouldn't mind finishing off the food with Hinata, would you?"

Naruto looked at her. "It's fine."

Sakura smiled and grabbed Sasuke's wrist, which wasn't necessary but she did anyway. Naruto looked at Hinata. "That was odd."

Hinata nodded then started to dig into the food her and the other girls made. There was a moment of silence then Naruto broke it.

"You and I should go to a movie sometime," he suggested his eyes still closed. "It would be fun to go do something."

Hinata looked at him she blushed. "S-sure," she answered looking at the food.

"It's cute when you blush."

She looked at him; his blue eyes were open looking at her. She blushed again smiling. "T-thanks N-Naruto-kun."

Naruto smiled. "And when you stutter," he added. "Also when you would play with your fingers that was too."

Hinata turned a deeper red.

"So…what time should we go? We can go now!" Naruto said. He grabbed her hand and pulled her out of her seat. "There's this new cool movie, we have to see it!"

"N-now?" Hinata asked.

Naruto looked at her. "Yeah then we can go out for ice cream. You like ice cream right?"

Hinata nodded and looked at her hand that which Naruto was still holding. She smiled. "Okay."

Naruto smiled and put his arm around her shoulders. "We'll have a great time, if the battle parts are bloody and you don't like it, you can use my shoulder, I won't mind."

Hinata nodded still blushing. Her and Naruto were kind of going on a date! This was exciting. She smiled and Naruto led her out of the mansion.

The others had been peeking through the window. "Told you it would work!" Ino boasted to Shikamaru.

Sakura smiled. "I bet Hinata-chan is having the time of her life."

TenTen smiled and looked at Neji. "Don't go off and kill Naruto now, okay?"

"Hn," was Neji's quiet reply.

"Can we go now?" Shikamaru asked. Chouji already left because he didn't have a girlfriend that was holding him back unlike Shikamaru.

Sakura looked at Sasuke. "We still can go to 'that' movie if you want!" she said smiling. Sasuke shrugged. He really didn't care if they did or didn't.

"I'll go with you Sakura-san!" Lee said smiling at her.

Sasuke looked at the green beast of Konoha. "She won't need your assistance," he proclaimed. He grabbed Sakura's wrist and walked away from the group of old classmates, Sakura following behind.

Lee pouted and looked at Neji and TenTen, who were already walking away. He growled and followed after them. 'Why am I the only one that doesn't have a girlfriend? Naruto has Hinata, Neji has TenTen, Shikamaru has Ino, Chouji has his chips, and Sasuke has my beloved Sakura,' he thought to himself.

Ino smiled at Shikamaru. "Come on, we can go to that hill of yours," she said rolling her eyes. She grabbed his hand and they started walking.
