Hey guys I hope you guys liked that I did a double installment last time. I mean I did it mainly to take a small breather from my other story. But now I have a full weak off from school so I can work on these even more in my free time. And of course I have a goal of hopefully finishing two of each story meaning twenty thousand words in nine days. Anyways seeing as I doubt you want me to talk to you about this when you came to read a chapter I won't keep you any longer.

Chapter 6

"Normal Talking"

"Normal Thinking"

"Demon Talking"

"Demon Thinking"

'Talking to demon'

"W-what?" Hinata asked shocked not believing what she heard.

"I asked you if you wanted to go out for dinner to me. Though seeing as it is last minute it would probably be ramen so if you don't want too I understand." Naruto told the girl clearly nervous.

"No!...I mean no. Ramen sounds great let's go Naruto-kun." Hinata told him forgetting to hid her joy for a few moments out of excitement.

"Ah! I can't believe he finally asked me out! I never thought this dream would happen. Man it seems too good to be true I must be dreaming…wait if I am I hope I don't wake up because I don't want this to end! I mean this was only the beginning of my dream I hope we eventually get to the end where we get married and do 'that'" Hinata thought happily as she followed Naruto back to his favorite ramen stand.

"Hey Ayame-chan a bowl of salt ramen for me and whatever Hinata-chan wants." Naruto told the girl seeing as she seemed to be the only one in at the moment.

"Okay coming up Naruto-kun oh and before you ask my father had to go do something so he won't be back for who knows how long. Anyways you are paying for Hinata-san? Are you two on a date or something?" Ayame asked but added the first seeing as she knew how curious Naruto could get.

"Yup." Naruto simply told her smiling. Course Hinata just blushed still surprised that her dream actually came true.

"Good to see you finally found a girlfriend Naruto. Anyways what can I get you Hinata-san?" Ayame asked kindly.

"Umm, just a beef ramen please." Hinata told her still shy as ever. Course Ayame then quickly got to work as the new couple turned to each other and started some small talk. Course during this they both learned quite a bit. For example, Naruto learned that although Hinata was shy she still was stronger than he thought and when she finally got away from being nervous she was an interesting person to be around and he really enjoyed her company. While Hinata realized that although Naruto seemed to just be a crazed and not bright guy, he actually was very bright in certain matters and he was even beginning to try to master his clan's specialties and the politics involved in clans. Before they knew it the date lasted quite a while with Naruto only ending up eating a few bowls of ramen due to being too focused on talking. Something that made Ayame truly happy to see. But eventually they had to go their separate ways so they quickly said their goodbyes and promised to meet up tomorrow. And when they left they both felt really happy with how their first date turned out.

"Hmm, well Hinata really is a good girl. I am happy that I got to be the one to get her attention. Though will it work out with the fact that I have that stupid clan restoration act? I mean I really don't want to put any girl through something she doesn't want to go through. But Hinata seems to still willing when she about it so I guess there is a chance that this could work out with a large kind of happy family...maybe." Naruto thought as he walked back to his shared apartment.

"Ah, I had a great time with Naruto-kun and I think he enjoyed it as well. I really hope this continues. I mean I don't even care that I will have to share him. After all he is the only person for me. Though those other girls will just have to know that I am the main girl." Hinata thought happily.

(while it is a harem of course Hinata will be the first meaning she is basically the leader and yes I know she is normally the alpha but come on she probably is going to end up with Naruto eventually anyways) ANE: remember that I am pretty sure this note was made before Naruto ended

Course after that she still went home for her normal practice time much happier than she had been in a while.

+Next Day Hinata+

When Hinata finally woke up she quickly went to her team meeting with a smile still on her face. Course she had no idea why it was so early but Kurenai only told them that she had an important announcement to tell them. So, she just figured that it would be something they needed to think about or practice for a while…or something. Though right now she didn't care all that much seeing as all she could think about was the fact that she had her 'true love' as a boyfriend and he actually loved her just as much as she loved him apparently. When she got to her group, she noticed that Kurenai seemed completely serious instead of her normal cheerful self so she quickly focused completely in on what she had to say.

"Team seeing as I have taught you a lot already, I felt it would be good to find a way to test how much each of you have actually learned. So, I have nominated you up for the chunin exams to do just that. Now I do have to tell you that this test will be no joke. You will have to use all of the skill you have just to survive and yes, it is possible you might not survive through the test. But if you do you will have the chance to become a chunin. Though like I told you before; this is mainly a chance to see just how said this is only to give you a chance to show your skills so if you feel like it is too much for you don't feel too bad about having to give up. Most people don't end up making it to the final part on their first try anyways…I don't want you guys to take any more risks than you feel prepared for. Now…if you want to do this the choice is completely up to each one of you but you must make the final decision as a team. So, I am giving each of you this entire day to decide amongst yourselves but if you want to go for it then meet at the academy room 301 tomorrow morning." Kurenai told them then left the group to think about it with the papers they need to fill out slowly falling in the air where she stood moments ago.

"So, what do you guys think we should do? For me, I so want to kick some ass in this exam! Kiba told them with a determined smile.

_Team 7_

Naruto was happy now knowing that he had a girlfriend so happy in fact that he didn't even mind standing around for an hour waiting for his sensei who for some reason wanted them to have their meeting early in the morning. So, all three of them were sleepily waiting for the ever late Kakashi to show up.

"Ugh, I hate waiting for that lazy sensei of ours!" Sakura yelled out annoyed then looked over at the smiling Naruto. "And what are you so happy about Naruto you are even less of a morning person we are!?" Sakura asked annoyed with everything just because of how early it was compared to when she normally woke up in Konoha.

"Well Sakura-chan I am happy because I finally noticed Hinata-chan's love and happily returned it so I can't be happier seeing as we just had our first date yesterday which went extremely well. In fact we planned to have one today as well." Naruto told her with a true smile.

"Oh…well I guess that is good news for you then." Sakura told him a bit upset.

"Why am I so upset I mean I like Sasuke-kun and I should be happy for Naruto but for some reason I just feel upset about it and maybe even a bit jealous. But, why I mean this means that Naruto finally will stop asking me out but the question is that really what I want anymore? I mean even though I know Naruto holds the fox in him I still have a small desire for him as well. But that means I like two guys! The question is which one do I like more I mean both are under that CRA thing I bet so I still have a chance with both of them…Though do I anymore. I mean I have been mean to Naruto so much that now that he has Hinata he probably doesn't like me anymore…" Sakura began thinking until Kakashi ended up showing up finally after another hour.

"Hello team I have asked you guys to show up to tell you that I have nominated you guys for the chunin exams. So, I am giving you the entire day to fill out these forms and to pack for it. Good luck guys and I hope that the next time I see you. You will all be one step closer to my rank." Kakashi quickly told them then left just as quick.

"…Did he really just make us wake up this early just to tell us that we have a day to prepare for something we can get ready for in a few hours?" Was all Sasuke, Sakura, and Naurto could think a bit annoyed with their teacher but still left to prepare anyways. Course they didn't notice that Kakahsi was still there watching them.

"I really do wish you guys good luck. I mean you will need all the luck you can get to survive. Course you will have company in this impending danger seeing as all of the other sensei's decided to nominate their teams as well...So, I guess we will see what you guys can do with all of your recent training." He thought sadly then really went away letting his team have some privacy before they went into what could be their doom. Now he could have told them that there was an option but with his team there was next to no chance of them being able to refuse. For he knew that Naruto and Sasuke would immediately choose to fight. And he sadly also knew that there was a high chance that if Sakura decided not to do so her mother who was a member of the civilian council would push her to change her mind. After all the civilian council has always been obsessed with showing off the 'mighty' Uchia…he really didn't want to be part of the reason a family became more tense.

_Naruto_

Naruto quickly went back into his room and quickly packed up a bag full of the normal weapons and camping equipment then quickly rechecked the other supplies he now always had on him. So he unsealed all of the stuff he had in his pockets and came to find a hundred kunai and shuriken in each pocket, a pack of fifty explosive seals, a few scrolls of information he was studying at the moment, and a few smoke bombs. So, he had everything a ninja could need in his pockets except for food pills which he rarely used due to the fact that he had the fox constantly healing him. Course after he checked it quickly he quickly filled the form out then left to go get a good meal of ramen at his favorite restaurant.

"Hey old man can I get six bowls of beef ramen." Naruto yelled out right when he got into the stand expecting it to be empty this early in the morning. So, of course he was surprised to see that a man dressed up in a black body suit with some sort of body shaped package on his back and a blond haired girl with a giant fan on her backing already enjoying a bowl of ramen themselves.

"Coming right up." Teuchi told him then quickly got to work ignoring the fact that his two other customers were staring surprised at the blond kid. So, soon Naruto sat next to the weird boy happily waiting for his food when Ayame walked over to him to talk for a bit.

"Hey Naruto-kun how are you doing today?" She asked in her normal cheerful voice.

"Great Ayame-chan! Not only do I have to go find Hinata-chan later on today but I also just got news about my next step in becoming the Hokage." Naruto told her happily causing her to laugh a bit at his antics until she noticed that the other boy's eyes were focused on her.

"Oh, can I help you sir?" She asked him thinking that he must have asked her for something and she just didn't hear it.

"Yes, I would like another bowl of salt ramen please and maybe I can share it with my beautiful waitress." The boy told her clearly trying to flirt with her.

"Coming right up sir. Dad another salt ramen." Ayame told him then shouted to her dad ignoring the boys flirting.

(Just so you guys know Ayame is going to be around sixteen or seventeen in this fanfic about two years older than the other who I have decided will be fourteen for this.)

And soon the boys next ramen and Naruto's larger order came out and Ayame just stood over closer to Naruto watching over the stand though staying a bit away from the guy who already flirted with her seeing as she wasn't interested.

"Ha, Kankuro even the ramen stand girl doesn't want you flirting with her." The girl told the now named Kankuro laughing at him.

"Oh, shut up Temari she probably just doesn't like younger men that is all." Kankuro growls at the still laughing girl.

"No, I doubt it seeing as she does seem to like that blond boy." Temari told him glancing over at Naruto and Ayame who were talking happily while Naruto was enjoying his ramen. Course this just made Kankuro even more annoyed so he decided to confront the blond kid beside him.

"Oy, stop trying to flirt with her I called her first." Kankuro told Naruto when Ayame left to get Naruto's next order of ramen.

"What do you mean I am just talking to my friend? Naruto asked confused.

"Bull crap you are just trying to get the hot waitress before I do!" Kankuro complains even more upset. Course it was at this time when Ayame came back with four more bowls of ramen. Three of which she gave to Naruto then gave the last one to Kankuro who ordered yet another to at least get her attention again. But she still ended up quickly going over to Naruto to talk again instead of listening to his flirting.

"So, Naruto-kun I heard there is a ninja exam or something coming up are you going to take it?" Ayame asked curious.

"Yea, pretty soon I am going to be a chunin!" Naruto told her happily after slurping down a few noodles. "And then I will be one step closer to becoming a clan head of the Uzumaki clan and the hokage." Naruto told her happily.

"Huh, but I thought you were the last Uzumkai so how can there be a clan of them?" Ayame asked the boy who instantly blushed.

"Umm…well the council already made a plan for that to change..." Naruto told her not really wanting to explain it in too much detail.

"oh, but how-" Ayame was going to ask until she was suddenly was brought back to Kankuro by chakra strings.

"Stop just focusing on that brat and notice a true man like me." He told her holding her close with the strings and was just about to kiss her when he ended up kissing cold metal. So he opened his eyes that he closed for the kiss out of surprise and noticed that instead of soft lips he was kissing a red blade. And when he looked over to where it came from he noticed that the blond kid was holding it while glaring at him.

"Oy, what the hell are you doing? Can't you see that I am trying to get a kiss here!" Kankuro asked annoyed but was quickly thrown out of the stand by Naruto with Temari following after him. "Ow, damn kid. I will show you!" Kankuro growled out then reached for his wrapped up package though was stopped by Temari who smacked him even farther away from the stand. "Oww! what the hell Temari!" He called out even more annoyed though shivered slightly when he noticed that his sister was glaring even colder than he had ever seen before from her.

"Don't ever let me catch you doing that again or else!" She told then dragged the still scared boy away from the shopping district by his leg not caring that he was being hurt by it.

_Naruto_

"Thank you Naruto-kun" Ayame told him happily then kissed his cheek causing Naruto to blush and hold his cheek.

"Oh, sorry Naruto I probably shouldn't have done that now that you are with Hinata?" She told him blushing a bit as well.

"No don't worry about it Ayame-chan." Naruto told her simply then paid for his meal and left to go find Hinata.

_Ayame_

*sigh* "Naruto-kun you always have been so kind and protective of me if only I could find a guy like you. But sadly all of the guys my age that are good seem to be taken. Even you my Naruto-kun… though how can you rebuild a clan with only one girl? I guess I will have to look into that." Ayame though then began to clean up the bowls and noticed Naruto gave them the money for Kankuro and Temari's bowls as well which brought a smile to her face.

_Naruto_

Naruto was currently walking around the village trying to find Hinata when he finally saw her eating a cinnamon bun with her other teammates eating their snacks as well. So, seeing as they weren't trying to hide their relationship or anything, he quickly went over to them and sat down next to her.

"Hey Hinata-chan" Naruto told her smiling.

"Hey Naruto-kun" She told him blushing a bit then leaned on Naruto's shoulder shyly at first but then just relaxed with a smile and continued to eat her favorite snack.

Course when Kiba saw this he was surprised at first then smiled. "So, Naruto you finally figured out not only that your orange outfit was horrible for ninja work but you also finally noticed Hinata's feelings eh?" he told Naruto who just blushed out of embarrassment.

"Umm, well I only changed my outfit because I learned more about my clan and their style so I decided to honor my ancestors by wearing traditional Uzumaki ninja attire. And as for Hinata-chan I kind of just fell in love and took a chance." Naruto told them rubbing the back of his head.

"…wait so you didn't notice it…how can you be so dense?" Kiba asked shocked.

"Kiba it seems that due to Naruto never having a real family as an orphan he didn't have the ability to watch anyone in love. Meaning that he wouldn't know what it is until he actually felt it himself." Shino told them making complete sense as always.

"Well I guess that is true Shino but it is too bad I can't tell people exactly why I was an orphan. I mean if I did I bet I would have as many girls in love with me as Sasuke does. Though I don't really care seeing as I have one of the most beautiful girls in the village as my first girlfriend." Naruto though happily looking down at Hinata who was still happily eating her snack next to him.

"Ah, so Naruto didn't notice my love but instead he fell in love? I am actually happier that was the way it happened. I mean if he only asked me out so I wouldn't feel bad it would have been terrible but now I know that he does for a fact love me very much." Hinata thought happily then returned to focusing on the sweet taste of her cinnamon bun that seemed to be even better now that she could feel the warmth of her true loves shoulder right next to her. And after that they all just sat around talking about random stuff for a while until Naruto finally remembered one of the reasons, he came to find Hinata for.

"So, did you guys get nominated to enter the chunin exams?" Naruto asked them curious.

"Actually we were just talking about it seeing as Kurenai-sensei just gave us the forms for it and gave us a choice to do it so we planned on spending the day talking it over with each other until we decide." Hinata told him then remembered the fact that they were going to plan a date today as well. "Though if you want, I could just put my vote in now so we can go on another date." Hinata quickly told him not wanting him to think that she forgot about him. Course he just laughed a bit at this.

"Don't worry about it Hinata I understand. Stay with your team and make sure this exam is what you want to do." Naruto told her with a caring smile. "Though why are you the ones to decide anyways I mean for my team the scarecrow told us that we were picked and just to get ready?" Naruto asked them confused seeing as he thought that the way his team got picked was the way the exam went.

"Well Naruto we get to decide mainly because it is dangerous for anyone to enter. Though for your team it is probably different seeing as it has two nearly extinct clans in it that the council probably want to show off to the other villages that are here." Shino informed them.

"Yea probably…" Kiba mumbled then noticed he said two clans. "Wait why two? I thought only Sasuke-teme had a clan in team 7." Kiba asked them confused.

"Well Kiba it turns out that the Uzumaki was actually a clan that was just very good friends of Konoha and were always respected by Konoha. So, when I activated the Uzumaki bloodline I was instantly marked as the clan heir for it seeing as I am most likely the only one left on the planet. Which is also why I have the Uzumaki headband on my head instead of the Konoha one. Just because I have the need to show everyone that the Uzumaki clan has returned from near extinction." Naruto told him and Kiba finally noticed Naruto's eyes and headband.

"Oh, yea I see that now…though man those eyes sure are creepy." Kiba tells him feeling like the whirlpool was practically causing turmoil in his soul. "Anyways so how do you like the perks of being a clan head I mean you get more respect just because of that. And best of all you will eventually become a council member." Kiba told him with a smile. Though his words made Naruto hear something that sounded like a snort of amusement inside of his head.

"Weird I thought the fact that you go to mate with multiple girls would be the best perk." The Kyuubi told Naruto surprising the blonde.

'Wait how are you talking to me fluff ball? I thought you were locked away inside of the seal.' Naruto asked trying to not show his friends the sudden shock he just felt.

"I know I should be but apparently the fact that you willingly took so much of my chakra at the wave killing must have weakened the seal just enough for me to create mental contact with you." The Kyuubi told him then sent him a mental fox smile. "And that is just great seeing as I can now torment you whenever I want and maybe even get to share a couple of your senses so I can feel the pleasures of mating as well." He informed Naruto seeing as he was unable to please himself with any of hell's demon vixens in quite a while.

'What the hell?' Naruto thought shocked. 'No! I refuse to let you be able to talk to me or try to force yourself on Hinata-chan. I swear I will make sure that Jiji knows about this so he can fix it.' Naruto told him not wanting to deal with the fox that would like nothing but for Naruto to die a slow horrible death.

"Oh, I wouldn't do that kit. I mean that fool you call a kage would probably just send ANBU to watch over you constantly and we both know how much the ANBU love to torment you." The fox told him not wanting to be resealed yet again.

'What! No I don't want those bastards that caused several of my scars following me around anymore! …Fine, you win fox just don't bother me unless it is important.' Naruto told him then returned his attention back to his friends that somehow didn't notice that he was zoned out for a while.

"Yes with this seal finally beginning to break I should be able to escape in a few years. Though for now I might as well just pester the kit for my own amusement." The Kyuubi thought happily then went back to sleep in his cage.

After Naruto's talk with the Kyuubi he really didn't feel like talking too much so he just listened in to the team's conversation.

Course when Hinata seemed to get nervous about the exam Naruto just gave her hand a reassuring squeeze as she thought about the danger of the exam.

"But what if we don't survive? I mean we could easily die." Hinata complained.

"Don't worry about it Hinata you are strong enough to pass this exam no problem. Trust me besides I have to be in it no matter what so if you need me I will find you in it and help okay?" Naruto told her trying to calm the nervous girl even more.

"Yea, you are right Naruto-kun I am sure that we all will do fine in this test." Hinata answered him happily.

"So, it is decided then? We will all go to this exam." Kiba asked his group ready for their final decision. And both of his teammates just gave him a small nod of approval.

"Okay then let's all get prepared for this test." Kiba told them then they all went their separate ways.

"Hinata why don't you go prepare. We can go for our date after we pass the exam okay?" Naruto tells Hinata and she just nods her head smiling. So, Naruto leaves her alone to pack her stuff up after giving her a quick hug.

"If Naruto-kun has faith in me then I know I can do it. I can't let him down." Hinata tells herself determined then quickly left to her home not noticing that there were two girls watching her.

_The two hiding girls_

"So, you still think that Naruto dating her is a bad thing?" Anko asked the girl standing beside her.

"…Fine I guess him being with her might be a good thing. MIGHT. I mean we still haven't seen if he will try anything yet." Kurenai told her causing her to just start laughing.

"Oh, come on Kurenai you are just being overprotective of your 'sister.' I told you already I know for a fact that Naruto is not like that. In fact, he is probably one of the best guys for her to be with." Anko told her friend. Course Kurenai just nodded her head in agreement though still looked skeptical.

_Hinata_

After finishing packing her bag it was already extremely late so she just fell sleep praying that her and all of her friends did good in this exam.

_Naruto (dinner time)_

Naruto was happily walking around when he noticed his favorite sensei and father figure Iruka looking at something with longing in his eyes. So, Naruto being curious snuck over to where Iruka was and noticed that he was looking over at where Anko lived. "Iruka-sensei has a thing for Anko-chan? Hmm…maybe it is time for me to become a match maker." Naruto thought knowing Anko liked him as well though she was too worried about his reaction to actually try to tell him.

So, when Iruka finally went to his home to make dinner Naruto quickly wrote two notes and stuck them to two kunai and then wrote "Iruka" on one and "Anko" on the other. He then launched them into their respective doors making a loud enough noise for them to hear but then quickly left.

So, when they noticed the note they quickly pulled it out and read practically the same thing

Iruka/Anko

I have always watched you from afar just waiting for you to show signs of liking me though you have yet to show it. So, I have decided to finally take a chance and actually meet you to confess. Though I am to shy to meet you in public. So, please meet me tonight at midnight at training field 1 so I can finally tell you that I love you with all my heart face to face.

Your True Love,

Your Secret Admirer

And of course when they saw this they were skeptical at first but then decided to go anyways just making sure to bring equipment just in case it was a trap. Seeing as they figured they would either have to deal with a threat that would just try again or actually find someone that loves them and couldn't help but be curious as to which one it would be.

_Anko_

"Hey Kurenai look at this." Anko told her friend over the meal that they had decided to share tossing the paper over to her.

"Hmm, looks like you found an admirer Anko-chan. I think you should go. I mean you deserve someone that will make you happy. And just in case I will come hiding in the trees if you need my help." Kurenai told her wanting her friend to find a loved one finally even if it meant taking a risk.

+Midnight+

Anko and Iruka walked to the field where they finally noticed each other in the center of the field.

"Anko/Irkua you were the one who sent this?" They both asked then blushed happy that their secret crushes actually like them.

Course neither of them tried to say anything else for over five minutes seeing as they were still getting over the shock of the meeting.

"Ugh this is getting nowhere." Naurto complained from inside of a bush then decided to 'help' them out some more. So, he quickly used his teachers head hunter jutsu to get just behind Iruka without either of them noticing. He then created a chakra hand that he struggled to force out and pushed Iruka into Anko causing them to accidently kiss. Course it only lasted a few moments until Iruka quickly got off of Anko blushing even more.

"Sorry Anko I must have tripped on something." Iruka told her embarrassed while on his hands just above Anko who was on the ground. There was then a few moments of silence before she surprised him by coming up for another kiss that lasted quite a bit longer.

"Don't worry I love you too." She told him after the kiss causing them both to smile for a moment then quickly returned to their kissing happy that they had each other. Course while they were doing this Naruto was just crawling out of the hole he made trying to give them some privacy when he was suddenly grabbed by a quick moving body and pinned to the ground.

"What are you trying to do here…..Naruto!?" Kurenai asked him with a kunai at his throat surprised to see him. Course when she realized who it was she removed the blade knowing that Naruto was a friend of both Anko and Kurenai. Then it hit her "You sent the note to both of them didn't you?" She asked him shocked.

Course Naruto just sat up and rubbed the back of his head embarrassed. "Umm… Yeah I found out that Anko like him ages ago and just found out that he liked her back tonight. But, I knew neither would make a move first do to shyness. So, I decided to do some match making and with a little push I managed to make two of my closest friends happier so how about we leave to give them some privacy eh?" Naruto tells her happily.

"Um…yeah." Kurenai said still shocked that Naruto would do something like this. "Naruto did this for them! Hmm… maybe my idea of him was wrong…" Kurenai thought with a smile as she looked down at the kid that was running back towards the village just in front of her.

=With the new couple=

After the kiss they both had to stop for a quick breath then Iruka remembered the notes. "Hey Anko I know I didn't send a message so who do you think did?" he asked curious.

Course Anko just put her arms around his neck and whispered "who cares" to him and returned to their kiss happy that she finally got to be with the person that was always nice to her.

And that is the end of this chapter. And as for the end of this I just didn't want to go to the chunin exams yet. Plus, I needed a way for Kurenai to start to trust Naruto a bit so I figured that this would be perfect seeing as these two seemed perfect together. And no Anko will not be in the harem and I know I probably surprised a couple of you guys by this fact but I just wanted them to be brother and sister in a relationship seeing as I got rid of that relationship between Ayame and Naruto. Speaking of Naruto here are some facts of his bloodline.

+ Naruto's bloodline is pretty good but it does have a flaw. It's flaw is that it requires chakra control to work which Naruto didn't have much of. So, in order to make some shapes he has to work on his control which he started in my unwritten training session. Course this control will lead to another weakness which I will write about later.

This explanation was just to make sure that no one thinks that he is all powerful with the bloodline. He is just a bit stronger now that he started to seriously train. Anyways that is all I have to say for right now. Ja Ne
