Seven Days After Naruto Defeated Demon Naruto

"I wonder if Naruto woke up yet?" Sakura asked as she clung to Sasuke's pocketed right arm.

"Who's knows? What do you think Sasuke-kun?" Ino said as she clung to Sasuke's left arm.

"Does it really matter?" Sasuke said as he walked without a care in the world.

"He's been out for seven days straight. You should try to show as least a little compassion for him, Sasuke-kun." Sakura said playfully but still meanimg what she said.

Sakura, Ino, Sasuke and Hinata were in Konoha hospital, going to check up on Naruto.

Every ninja in the village went to see the saviour of the village at least once. Even the people of the village started to acknowledge him now, but still not too often.

Hinata and the others walked into Naruto's room and up to his bed, "I guess he's not up yet." Sasuke said. Sakura, Ino and Sasuke stayed for about five minutes, before they left Hinata, who wanted to stay a little longer.

Hinata was now alone with an unconscious Naruto and she was sitting next to the bed staring at his face. She then stood up and walked closer to him. She stood beside his bed, "Naruto-kun..." Hinata whispered, before picking up his hand into her two hands. She then took her eyes off of his face to look at his still but barely burned hand; she then started squeezing his hand a little and closed her eyes.

She then got a response to what she was doing, "Ouch..." Naruto said weakly.

Hinata opened her eyes and turned her head to see Naruto with a weak smile on his face, with his eyes barely open. He sat up but was shortly after taken down when Hinata rejoiced by pouncing on him, hugging him tightly and shouting, "Naruto-kun...!"

"Okay Hinata-chan, now that really hurts."

Hinata blushed and jumped out of the bed. She stood next to the bed, looking at the ground with a large blush on her face, "I'm sorry."

Naruto sat back up and stared at her for a second, "It's okay Hinata-chan. I still want you to finish your hug though." Hinata looked up; then her hair flew up a bit from a sudden breeze, "Wow! Even Hinata-chan's hair's movement is graceful."

Hinata brushed her hair out of her face and started leaning in to hug him, "Wait..." Naruto said, stopping her, "when you were hugging me before, you were in the bed."

Hinata blushed a little more but then slowly climbed into the bed. She sat on her feet, facing Naruto. Then she wrapped her arms around his neck and started squeezing him. Naruto wrapped his arms around her slender waist and returned her hug.

They broke the hug and stared deeply into each others eyes, "Naruto-kun..., I love you."

"I love you to Hinata-chan." They then kissed each other with deep passion. Naruto broke the kiss after thirty seconds, "Hinata-chan..., thank you for saving me."

"Naruto-kun..., what did you mean by that?"

"I meant that if I continued to try to do everything for myself and my friends. I know that wasn't going to get me anything."

"But I thought that you, Sakura and Sasuke had good teamwork."

"That's true but I still always tried to out do Sasuke and be the best, but I can't be the best if I don't accept help when it's offered and needed." Naruto explained before tightening his grip around Hinata's waist a little.

"So Naruto-kun..., what exactly were you doing while you were away from the village?"

"I was just training and thinking."

"Thinking about what?"

"About a way, I could possibly be with my friends."

"Am I always going to be your friend, Naruto-kun?"

"No."

"Oh..." Hinata said softly and sadly, then releasing her grip around Naruto's neck and looking in the direction opposite him.

"You're always going to be more than just my friend."

Hinata looked back at him, "Your close friend?"

"No."

"Your best friend?"

"No."

"Than what am I always going to be to you, Naruto-kun?"

"You're always going to be my lover."

Hinata got a little confused, and mixed up lover as in his girlfriend going to be his wife, with just plain sex partner, "Naruto-kun..., I don't know if... if I can just do that with you if we're only friends." Hinata said nervously and began poking her fingers together; all red in the face.

Naruto looked at her and thought about it for a second, "No... No. Not like that! I mean my life partner."

"Did Naruto-kun just say that we're going to be married, some time in the future?" Hinata thought, while still tapping her fingers together, "Naruto-kun..., do you mean that... you want to marry me?"

Naruto lifted her head up with his finger to take a good look at her, "Hinata-chan..., that's exactly what I mean." Hinata stared at him for a few second, before fainting onto his lap, "You still do that Hinata-chan?" Naruto asked himself apparently .

Naruto slipped from under Hinata and gently placed her in the chair that was next to the bed. He then found his clothes and got dressed. By the time he was done changing Hinata was waking up, "You want to get out of here, Hinata-chan?" Hinata nodded to him a yes.

They left the hospital and ran into Kakashi and Kurenai, "Hey Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto said with excitement.

"Good afternoon Kurenai-sensei..., Kakashi-sensei." Hinata said politely.

"Hey Naruto... I see that you're feeling a lot better." Kakashi said.

"Thanks."

"But it's a real surprise to see that you're up so soon." Kurenai said.

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked.

"Don't you remember?" Kurenai asked.

"Remember what?"

"After that fight with that other Naruto thing..., you had severe burns and you even received gashes, caused from those flames. You almost died a few times in the operating room. And now just look at you. It was only four days from the day that they couldn't do anymore and you're up and walking already." Kakashi explained.

"Oh... well what can I say?" Naruto said enthusiastically towards this information, "Okay… I've been noticing that you two have been holding hands for a while. What's going on there?" Naruto asked.

'...' Kakashi and Kurenai remained quiet.

"I get it." Naruto said mocking them, "Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei hanging from a tree." He said briefly, before chuckling a little.

"Yes, yes very funny Naruto." Kakashi said, "What about you two?"

Naruto started laughing, "You got me!"

"So, Hinata…. Did you two get together?" Kurenai asked akmost like a teenage girl, craving gossip.

Hinata blushed a little, clasped her hands together at her thighs and gave a little nod for yes. Kurenai smiled, "Way to go Hinata." They then went their separate ways after some friendly good-byes.

Hinata and Naruto (Naruto is on the left side of Hinata) walked for a while, and Naruto was happy that he wasn't hearing any mumbling about him having the fox demon sealed in him.

After a while of walking they ran into Sasuke, Ino and Sakura, "Hey... hey... hey..." Naruto said in a mocking and surprised way, "What's going on here?"

Naruto was really shocked to see Sakura and Ino clanging to Sasuke's arms, "Hey Naruto." Ino said.

"It's good to see you up Naruto." Sakura said.

"You have a problem with what you see?" Sasuke asked.

Hinata turned to Naruto and used her right hand to close Naruto's dropped jaw, "Let me get this straight. The fight between Ino and Sakura-chan, over Sasuke, is over, because he chose the two of you?"

"Yup…!" Ino and Sakura both said happily.

Naruto took a second to think about having two girls at the same time, "Hey Naruto." Sasuke snapped him out of the thought.

"What is it?"

Sasuke got even more serious then he was when they ran into him, "I want to fight you again."

"Fine... bring it on." Naruto said with even more enthusiasm and excitement.

"Not right now though."

"What? Why?"

"Because you need the time to finish licking you wounds."

"What? Sasuke..." Naruto growled and glared at him.

"Naruto-kun, don't fight him now. Wait for another time." Hinata said.

Naruto loosened up, "You better listen to your little girlfriend there." Sasuke, 'obviously' said.

"Alright Sasuke, if you're going to say something mean about me as a joke. That's fine, but if it's about Hinata-chan, then shut your mouth and keep it closed!" Naruto commanded.

"And what if I don't?" Sasuke said, causing Sakura and Ino to get a little worried that a fight was going to break out.

"If not then I'll shut your mouth for you!" Naruto said, also making Hinata get a little worried.

"Alright Naruto, I won't say anything else." The two then loosened up and acted like that moment didn't even happen, "I'll see what exactly you've been up to."

They then started to go their separate ways but Naruto made a comment, "Sakura…, Ino, when you two find out that Sasuke can't handle it…, don't say I didn't warn you." Sasuke turned around was about to insult Naruto but he and Hinata were already out of sight, before Sasuke could retaliate.

"Naruto-kun, are you always going to be doing things like that?"

"No Hinata-chan. I'll be too busy."

"Doing what?"

"Being with you." Hinata and Naruto then went to the Hokage's office.

Hokage's Office

Naruto left Hinata outside because she didn't want to go up with him, "Are you sure, Hinata-chan?"

"It's okay Naruto-kun, I'll be okay."

"Okay."

Naruto went up to the Hokage's door, "Hey... baa-chan!" Naruto said after he burst through the door.

"Naruto, it's so nice to see you awake." Tsunade said. She then got up and ran over to give him a hug; Tsunade wrapped her arms around his neck, pulled him down and smashed his face into her chest and squeezed him tightly. His face became buried in her large soft breasts and to add to that suffocation; the hug almost cut off the oxygen to his brain. She hugged Naruto for about two seconds, before it became awkward and Tsunade released her death grip.

"Okay... umm... hey Shizune."

"Hello Naruto-kun." Shizune responded.

"Naruto I have something important to tell you." Tsunade said.

"What's that?"

"I've chosen someone to become the sixth Hokage."

"Really...! Are you serious!" Naruto started rejoicing for a second, before stopping, "You did pick me right?"

Tsunade nodded and Naruto started rejoicing again, "I'm going to be Hokage! I'm going to be Hokage!" Naruto sang.

"But there's a catch."

Naruto stopped quickly, slouched and allowed his head to droop, and then he put a giant frown on his face, "What is it?"

"It's fairly simple. All you have to do is take three exams."

"Really…? And those would be?"

"They would be the genin exam, the chuunin exam and the jounin exam."

"What? Why do I have to take the first exam?"

"Because you left the village and became a missing ninja; then you returned to the village, which makes you a civilian. So put two and two together and you know why."

Naruto grunted and then they left with friendly farewells.

Outside The Hokage's Office

"Well Hinata-chan... Where do you feel like going now?"

Hinata got in front of him and said, "I want to take care of some unfinished business."

"What are you talking about?"

Hinata then whispered into his ear, "Oh let's get to my place then!" Naruto shouted.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just to let you all know Hinata and Naruto don't go to his place to have sex. I hope you all enjoyed reading my story. I'm thinking about making a sequel where Naruto fights Sasuke and becomes the Hokage. Think that'll be cool?
Well send your reviews for what you think of the whole thing.
