Chapter 8: He is in love with you Believe it!

.

.

"Welcome back Shion-sama." Izami greeted and bowed as Shion slowly emerges from the carriage.

"Its nice to be back Izami-san." Shion smiled and breathe in the breeze she misses so much. "Haruka?"

"Yes, Shion-sama?"

"I'm going to pray for Taruho today." She started as she walks into the temple. "I want you to pray together with me."

"Eh? Really?" Haruka smiled cheerfully as he follows Shion.

Shion smiled to herself hearing how cheerful Haruka is.

"It's the least I can do for you and Taruho." She added.

"Thank you Shion-sama." He gratefully bowed at her.

"By the way Shion-sama, Naruto and the others have already left."

Shion stopped on her trance.

"Yeah, cause I told them I hate bidding them goodbyes so they should have a silent retreat." She said with an unwavering smile on her face.

She will be a liar if she would say that she didn't feel hurt about Naruto's dumb promises. She is still fond of that blonde idiot and forever he will occupy the biggest part of her heart.

She love both Naruto and Hinata thus , the pain she is feeling diminished when she saw how happy, compatible and so in love Naruto and Hinata were for each other. Though Shion somehow felt Hinata is still holding back. She wanted to ask Hinata what is pulling her from expressing her feelings more openly to Naruto. But she decided to just let Hinata resolve that by herself. After all Naruto, as how he is now with Hinata would sure to settle whatever it is Hinata is feeling that holds her back.

Oh well she guess she can pray for them as well.

For almost 2 months of being with them, from the days they spend time traveling to Suna and now traveling back to the land of Demons, Shion would extremely miss their company.

"Finally, were home." Shikamaru breathe in as they set their foot on Konoha's gate.

"Were home now Hinata." Naruto exclaimed to his wife as they are standing beside each other.

"Hai!"

"I cant wait for you to cook at home Hinata! You promised me that ttebayo!." Naruto scream as he tap his foot altogether, like a child excited for his mom to buy him a toy in a toy store.

"I know Naruto-kun, you don't have to scream it out." Hinata laughed at her husband's childhood antics

"We still have to report to the Hokage." Shikamaru reminded the couple.

"Yah we know that ttebayo." Naruto retorted. "that's why we better hurry Shikamaru so we can get home and rest."

"Its not like you to be tired and wanted rest Naruto." Shikamaru pointed it out. Knowing Naruto only wants for Hinata to rest since shes been in this mission for almost 2 months now.

"Well how could you understand me Shikamaru, when you don't have a beautiful wife to take care of?" Naruto said closing his eyes and tries to intimidate Shikamaru. "If only you could have asked Gaara back in Suna of his blessing for you and Temari then you could have felt what I am feeling now."

Shikamaru just rolled his eyes, not wanting to react on what Naruto had said, but a blush on his face is something he cannot hide.

.

.


.

"That is all for our report Hokage-sama." Shikamaru bowed to Kakashi as he, Hinata and Naruto went to report about the escort mission of the priestess.

"Thank you all for your hard work. I have read Yamato's report about what happen back then in Suna and I'm really relieved to see you all well Hinata."

"Thank you so much Hokage-sama." Hinata bowed politely.

" I gotta say my gut always ends up right by sending Naruto to Suna on time."

"Geez Kakashi-sensei, you werent supposed to send me early if not for me that keeps begging you for it." Naruto reprimand his sensei that Kakashi chose to neglect and not minding what the blonde had just said.

"You've been gone for some quite time you all deserve to rest. You're dismiss." Kakashi ordered and eyed the three to the door but they didn't budged.

Their eyes were full of questions and Kakashi knew they wont leave unless he will tell them.

"I know you are all worried about Ino Yamanaka" He started.

Hinata's eyes forms tears in as she recalls what happen to Ino during her interrogation with Kaoru Miya.

Sakura said Ino is Brain Dead, and such Sakura, Yamato and Sai returned to Konoha earlier than plan to bring Ino back home as ordered by Kakashi.

So Naruto tag along with them in escorting the priestess back to the land of Demons in replacement of Sai.

" She is taken care of by her clan and Sai is there as well."

The trio all shut their heads up. "Ino is alright then?" Shikamaru asked. Concern for his teammate is evident on his face.

Kakashi let out a sigh. "I ordered for her immediate return even on her state since her clan had asked for it. They have a suspicion that Ino had her own brain cells to shut down and they were right."

"Eh? Why would Ino do that Kakashi-sensei?"

"The Yamanaka clan had a special jutsu that they all learned since they started leading the interrogation team way back years ago. To prevent enemies from reading whats in your mind, the Yamanaka had created a jutsu where they could shut their brain which had their memories on it, preventing any enemies from gathering information through them. As a result they will be in a state of comma for no one knows when. Only the one who sealed their own brain would be able to unsealed it."

"Which mean that only Ino can decide whether to wake up or remain asleep for how long." Shikamaru commented. "She will be fine." Shikamaru told Hinata and Naruto. "I know Ino, she's stubborn and a nuisance alright, but she knows what she is doing that wont harm her or anyone. If she chose to release such jutsu on her it means that she had a good reason for doing it so."

"And that reason lies on that bastard Kaoru Miya." Naruto added. "I should have kicked that guys ass—"

"You already had Naruto." Kakashi commented. "Gaara will make sure that whatever it is that Kaoru guy is keeping to himself will soon be out in the open. For now, you three needed to rest, There are no visitors allowed for Ino Yamanaka at this hour so don't think of visiting her yet."

.

.


.

.

"Its been days since I had a good bath." Shikamaru commented as they went out from the Hokage office. "I'm heading off to the public bath, and you two?"

"I guess me and Hinata should grab something to bite before going home since she cant seem to cook now cause its late and were all tired." Naruto answered with a grin.

"Yah, Ramen I know." Shikamaru sighed knowing the blonde he would go nowhere else aside from Ichiraku. "See you guys around" He said and goes off to another direction.

"Yah, See yah!" Naruto waved at him. He then looked at his wife who is trailing behind him.

"hey Hinata, lets have Ramen at Ichiraku before going back ho- '' he stopped and observes Hinata's state who seems not listening to him.

.


Its not good to blame herself, she knows that, but somehow she felt like halfly responsible for what happen to Ino.

Ino tries to search for an answer as to why she become a target on this mysterious enemies that they encountered in Suna.

And for that Ino is in a dilemma. Not just Ino, she's sure that all the Yamanaka clan are saddened for what happen as well as Sai. If only there is something that she could do.

Hinata closed her eyes as she can smell Naruto's scent. She can feel his arms around her, embracing her and trying to comfort her.

"Don't blame yourself Hime." Naruto softly whisper on her ear causing Hinata to blush on his endearment to her. "None of it is your fault."

Hinata hugs him back as she let go of her tears.

"And I'm sure Ino wont be happy if you blame yourself to it." He said and let go of the hug. "Tell you what we will visit Ino first thing in the morning kay?" Naruto smiled at her.

Hinata nodded her head as Naruto wipes away the tears on her cheeks.

"But for now lets head on to Ichiraku cause I'm starving." And he flashed his famous grin at her causing Hinata to smile.

.

.


.

.

"Were home!" Naruto exclaimed, opening the door of their house for her to come inside first.

Hinata smiled at how she missed being home. This house has been her comfort zone when she felt depressed about their marriage.

"Naruto-kun?"

"Hmmm?"

"Ive been away for almost 2 months and you for a month. How come the entire house looks like its been cleaned recently?" She asked looking at all the furniture which are dustless.

"Ohh about that." Naruto rubbed his head in embarrassment as he placed their bag on the sofa.

"You see I left a couple of my clones here. Each day one of my clone would clean the entire place and if its exhausted and out of chakra the other clone that's been left meditating would do the task."

"Sugoi." Hinata mouthed. Despite knowing how powerful Naruto is but still shes awed at what he can do.

"Gladly you left enough clones till we return." She said and went to sit on the sofa where Naruto had placed their bag so she can start unpacking them.

"I anticipated it." Naruto proudly say as he watched Hinata unpacked. And then a long silence ensued.

.

.


.

.

Hinata can see Naruto standing still at the corner of her eyes, watching her unpack.

Its like he wanted to say something or yet do something but he is uncomfortable to do so.

She stopped unpacking and looks at him and her heart beats so fast as she can clearly see in his eyes something she never sees before.

Desire and …...

Her blood went into her face as she can feel her cheeks heating up.

Naruto took notice of it and he too blushed and avoids eye contact.

"I—Im going to take a bath." Naruto stammered and hurriedly went upstairs on their bedroom.

Hearing the door of their room closed, Hinata started breathing again.

Did she just felt Naruto's intense desire to consummate their marriage? She can read and feel the message in his eyes. It was full of his desire for her.

Now thinking about it. Since Naruto had been so affectionate towards her back in Suna, they haven't got a chance to really be together like alone with each other since they were always surrounded by their comrades and now they are all by their selves.

What should she do?

She will be lying if shell say she haven't been fantasizing about such thing.

She desire him as well but she wanted that if they would decide to do it, that they would do it for love and not for the same reason behind their marriage.

.

.


.

Naruto let the cold water runs all over his body as he is trying to cool down the heat and the desire that his body wanted.

He is ashamed as what would Hinata might think of him looking at her like that. He is lusting at his own wife and he wasn't able to control it this time. For how many times did he tries to control himself and he almost let it out tonight.

Hinata doesn't have to wear skimpy clothing and make up like other females do to catch a guys attention. His Hinata don't have to exert an effort to it.

Cause by just looking at the way she moves her hands, the way she blinks her eyes, the way she breathes, the way her lips curve into a small smile and the way she moves her body in slight movement always turns him on.

That what he always felt and he is always been successful for not showing or making it obvious towards her. He doesn't want Hinata to think that he is a pervert so he always keeps in control.

But this time something is different. Looking at his wife tonight sitting there in the sofa and unpacking their things, damn! Why does she have to be so beautiful in all things she do.

He wanted her and he loved her so much that he want nothing more but to make her feel how much he really loved her. He knows Hinata loved him as well but something has been holding her by showing it to him. Somehow he was thinking perhaps he wasn't doing everything to make her feel how much he loved her.

.

.

.

.

Hinata comfortably holds on to her pillow as she wanted to have another extra sleep, but the smell of a burning food followed by a little cursing words had prevented her from doing so.

She decided to rise and see to it what Naruto has been doing. Is he trying to destroy their kitchen?

"Naruto-kun?" She called as she went to the kitchen.

"Hinata!" Naruto exclaimed as he comically tries to stop her from getting inside the kitchen.

"what happen?"

"Nothing! Its nothing!why don't you go back to bed and have some extra sleep ttebayo!." Naruto suggested as he tries to block Hinata's view.

"Did you try to cook for yourself?" She asked taking a glimpse of what has been burning on the stove despite Naruto's effort of blocking her view.

"well I-!"

Hinata look at Naruto's saddened face. He got flour and some egg on his face.

She let out a soft giggle as she lead Naruto to sit down on the chair. She took a towel and wipes the sticky egg and the flour on his face.

"You should woke me up if you're hungry Naruto-kun." She said smiling at her silly husband as she still wiping away the dirt on his face gently.

"Why should I? When I am cooking for you ttebayo!" he said sadly.

Hinata look at Naruto. His looking at the door trying to avoid her.

" I thought its an easy task seeing you before doing it, but hell it's even more difficult than making a new jutsu." He commented as he pout his lips.

Hinata laughed at Naruto's words.

"You don't have to laugh Hinata, I'm getting embarrassed ttebayo!" He said pouting his lips even more.

"I'm sorry Naruto-kun, I didn't mean to embarrassed you" she said while still laughing and giggling. "its just that I found it cute how you almost had a flour on your entire face."

Naruto eyed Hinata. "you know whats even cuter?" he asked.

Hinata stopped laughing and looked at him. "Nani?"

And Naruto in a flash had Hinata's faced covered with flour.

"There! Now were even" He said laughing at her only to be stopped seeing Hinata's wide eyed expression looking at him trying to control herself from crying.

"Oi Hinata? I was only joking around I didn-"

and an egg crack on his forehead as Hinata slam it on his head.

"Got you!" she said laughing and as Naruto took hold of another flour, Hinata sprint away, running towards the living room as Naruto take chase of her.

.

.


.

"Heres for Naruto and for you Hinata-san" Old man Teuchi said as he placed their order.

"Thanks old man." Naruto grin as he digs in for his ramen.

"Thank you." Hinata politely says.

"Its cute how you two end up eating ramen because you wasted dozens of eggs and kilos of flour chasing each other.'' Ayame commented knowing the story from Naruto, who is happy to tell how they end up messing around their house, having them to clean up their mess afterwards and miss eating their breakfast.

"I wished I can have a husband who would do something cute as that for me." Ayame said dreamily.

"You could if you'll marry Yamato-sensei." Naruto said in between eating his ramen.

Ayame blushed at Naruto's comment.

"Yamato Sensei?" Hinata asked.

"Yeah, Ayame had a crush on Yamato-sensei"

"Stop it Naruto!" Ayame exclaimed as other costumers look at the commotion they are making. "Why do you keep saying that I have a crush on him when its not true?"

"Eh? But you're blushing every time Yamato sensei is around and you keep on looking at him like you're dreaming." Naruto pointed out not bothering to keep his tune low, resulting for old man Teuchi to laugh.

"Ohhh you mean like the way you look at Hinata?" Ayame get back at him. Wanting to see how Naruto would stammered like he usually does when Hinata would be their topic before.

"Yap, like the way I look at my wife so you could not hide that from me Ayame-nee"

Hinata blushed at Naruto's words.

"See Hinata, this husband of yours has been gone through a level of depression when you're gone. That one day…"

Ayame said while Naruto waves his hand at her signaling her not to say a word.

"One day he asked father to name one of our new ramen as Hinata-hime. Actually what he is eating right now is the special Hinata-hime ramen. That's what he ordered every single day."

"Stop that Ayame nee ttebayo!" Naruto exclaimed.

Hinata looked at Naruto's flushed face and then to his ramen. He is eating Hinata-hime Ramen.

Hinata felt her cheeks heat up.

"Its like he is eating you instead of the ramen right?." Ayame winked causing for the couple to blushed even harder.

"Ayame-nee ttebayo!"

.

.

"Hinata!"

Tenten exclaimed as she went straight to hug Hinata.

"Tenten-san. How are you?"

"Just got back from a mission." She said and gently punch Naruto on the shoulder. "You're getting taller again Naruto." She commented.

"I am?"

"Yeah and somehow you make us look like dwarves now.'' She said earning a laugh at Hinata.

Its true Naruto who was supposed to be the shortest among the konoha 11 turns to be the tallest now.

"Where are you two headed?"

"Were going to visit Ino-san. Hopefully visitors are allowed this time." Hinata answered.

"Yeah, Ive heard about what happen to Ino. After I'll report to the Hokage about my mission then ill go straight to visit Ino as well."

"Okay see you later Tenten-san."

.

"Tenten seems to be alright now." Naruto commented seeing Tenten off to the Hokage tower.

Hinata sighed. "Yeah. And somehow I'm happy that she finally learn to let go." She said remembering how depressed Tenten was after the war having lost Neji.

Tenten, had never gotten the chance to tell Neji of her feelings and Hinata knows that Neji had the same feeling towards his team mate, but at that time the world is in chaos. Perhaps if Neji is still alive then he and Tenten might be a married couple and having kids this time.

She look at Naruto, what if back then, it was her and not Neji who had died? If it was then, Naruto perhaps would be married to-

And a gentle touch from Naruto had her stop from thinking what would have happen IF.

"Hinata. Its you who should let go." He said as if reading whats in her mind.

"Naruto-kun?"

"Please stop thinking that its you who should have die back then, cause its like you're killing me a 100 times than Madara and Kaguya could do." He said sadly. "Its time we let it go Hinata."


Ill always be in your heart as you are in mine.

Those are Neji's words to her.

She bit her lower lip and smiled at Naruto. That's right she have to let it go and have to accept that it did happen. Letting go doesn't mean shell forget about Neji, but it means moving forward and fight for what Neji had died for.

If Neji and Tenten didn't have the chance to sealed their feelings then perhaps she and Naruto might for their honor.

She's been telling herself about that for years but now she had it internalize within her. Like Tenten she should let it go. The doubts and the Ifs within her on that unfaithful day.

She smiles at Naruto, a grateful and lovingly smile she always had for him. "Thank you" she softly say as she holds Naruto's hands that caressed her face.

"Hinata." Naruto calls her softly. "I wont let you go." He said looking at her seriously.

"Na-Naruto-kun." She whisper and holds her breathe as Naruto slowly went down to kiss her.

The kiss was chaste and gentle as if Naruto is afraid that she might push him away. Luckily no one is there to see them doing it.

Naruto pulled her even closer and Hinata lost it.

She opens her mouth inviting Naruto to explore her mouth as she wrap her arms around his neck.

She almost let out a moan when she felt Naruto's tongue when…

"Ohh there you two are!"

They immediately broke apart as Sakura rushed towards them.

Naruto cursed inwardly of the bad timing while Hinata is flushed about what just happen.

She and Naruto had shared their first real kiss and it is embarrassing that they did it in a public place where a friend of theirs had caught them. Or so it seems.

"Ive been looking everywhere for you guys, Kakashi-sensei said that-" and Sakura stopped, observing the couple.

She blushed when she understand what she just interrupts. She was running looking for them for hours and thus when she saw them she exclaimed and didn't took notice of what her friends were doing. "Im sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you two when you're being intimate!"

"Its okay Sakura-san!" Hinata exclaimed as well. Somehow hearing someone says they were doing intimate things embarrassed her even more. "Me and Naruto we were just-just-just-'' and she cover her mouth with her hands as she couldn't find the right word to describe what they were doing.

"I'm sorry really. Please don't be mad Naruto." Sakura laughed a little and feeling bad at the same time, looking at the not so happy face of Naruto.

"Ill make it up to you guys somehow I promise. But anyway Kakashi sensei had asked me to bring you two to where Ino is. He said that perhaps there is something good would happen if you two would see Ino now. That's just a hunch but somehow it always ends up right."

"We are on our way to Ino actually." Naruto said as he took hold of Hinata's hand and walk beside Sakura.

"Yeah before I caught you guys kis-"

"Sakura!" Both Naruto and Hinata exclaimed.

.

.


.

.

"Ino-san." Hinata softly whisper as she went near towards Ino's almost lifeless body in the hospital bed.

"Glad you two came back safely." Sai said as he just exchange the flowers that were on the table besides Ino's bed.

"She likes flowers so much that's why I have to make sure that when she woke up she the first thing shell see are the nicest flowers that she loves the most."

Naruto and Hinata smiled sadly at Sai. Somehow they feel bad for him.

Naruto doesn't want to feel what Sai has been going through. Looking at the one he love lying on the hospital bed and wont know when she would wake up.

Naruto tightens her hold on Hinata's hand protectively which made Hinata to look at him. He then look at Ino and somehow he just knew. Why didn't he thought about this before back in Suna.

"Sai! I want you to call any members from the Yamanaka clan. Have Shikamaru and Kakashi-sensei here as well as Sakura."

"Why?"

"Just do it. Ill explain later." He said.

.

.


.

"Would that really be possible Naruto?" Sakura asked as they were all gathered around in a secured room of the Hokage Tower as her medical teams carries Ino's body out from the hospital and into the room.

"Yes. If the Yamanaka can open even a tiny entry for me towards Ino's mind then I can get inside Ino's brain and save her. She's unable to return since she lacks chakra from shutting her brain down during her interrogation with Kaoru." He explains. "|I can use Kurama's massive chakra from the inside."

"but if you fail Naruto-san you'll be trapped inside Ino's mind" one of the Yamanaka speaks up. "we have tried a case like this before.

Kenji Yamanaka had shut his brain down when he was captured by the enemy, when we retrieved him we were hoping for him to wake up soon but it went a year for him, but he still didn't came back, so his father and other clans had thought of the same open Kenji's mind and had his sister to awaken him from entering his mind. However his sister was trapped as well and both of them died as they somehow stopped breathing. That's why we never open this idea to the Hokage when Ino was brought back since we cant afford to sacrifice another clan member."

"That's why I'm volunteering myself ttebayo! All you guys have to do is to open a space for me that I can get through. I promised that Ill returned safely into my body and bring back Ino." He said with a full determination on his eyes.

"Naruto." Kakashi who is standing beside Yamato all this time had finally speak. "Are you sure that you can get back safely?''

"Hai!"

"And you can save Ino?"

"Hai!"

"Well what are we waiting for?" Kakashi commented and ordered Yamato, Sakura and the Yamanaka clan to get ready.

"Hokage-san, are you sure about this." The head Yamanaka asked. "I cant afford to lost anyone." He said.

"you lost your son and daughter before Tiro-san, but that its because you didn't have Naruto Uzumaki at that time." Kakashi explains as Naruto and the others were surprised that it was his son and daughter that he was talking about.

"But right now Im telling you Tiro-san , Naruto Uzumaki can save your niece. One thing you should have known by now that this future Hokage of ours never gives up. Just have faith on him."

.


"Hey? Kurama? Hope youre ready."

"che! Ive always been…"

.


.

.

Naruto can only see fields of flowers everywhere. So this is what insides Ino's brain. This is what she had created in her brain.

"I was surprised, I though I will be seeing something perverted since this is Ino's mind, She's been telling perverted stuff to all the girls before including Hinata."

Che! At least she's been true to herself. Unlike you whose been a coward eversince you got married. Youre also a pervert don't forget.

"As if youre helping me out! You always end up shutting me down cause you want to sleep. Youre being lazy really."

I just don't want to pry on your perverted thoughts everytime you eyed your mate. Why don't you just get on with it. Youre such a coward.

"Well you don't have a mate Kurama so you don't understand what Ive been going through."

Well if I have a mate I wont treat her like you do.. I'll make love to her day and night.

"Youre giving me goosebumps Kurama thinking you could do that ttebayo."

Well, I aint no-

"shhhhh" Naruto stopped Kurama from talking as he sense a little chakra. "Ino!" He shouted seeing a sleeping figure on the fields of flowers.

.

.


.

.

Its been half an hour since Naruto and the others were inside that sealed room by which she and Sai had been asked by kakashi along with some anbu to guard the passageway.

Hinata looks at Sai as he has been so quiet all the time and despite him being famous for not having any emotion before, Hinata can see a Sai who is afraid of losing his entire world. Hinata holds Sai's hands trying to comfort him.

"Everything will be fine Sai-san. Naruto-kun made a promise to you."

"Thank you Hinata-san. I know Naruto maybe a dickless but he always hold on to his promise when his friends are in the line. However, I cant stop from shaking. Is this what they say about being afraid to lose someone you care and loved the most. Ive lost my brother before and I have a terrifying experience about that and so this time thinking Ill be losing Ino as well had me so scared and so afraid. But I have to hold on to Naruto's promise no matter what."

Hinata let out an understanding smile.

"Sai! Hinata!" Sakura exclaimed as she went out the door with a little commotion inside as they can hear some noises.

"Sakura!What is it?!"

"Ino and Naruto- they—they— ''and tears rolled down on her cheeks.

.


.

.

"Naruto"

"Naruto-san."

He could hear them. He could hear them calling his name.

.

"Naruto-kun?"

Hearing her voice had Naruto opens his eyes and he was greeted by a happy Hinata whose been exclaiming his name all over again.

He is still on his meditating position when Hinata hugged him causing for him to fall on his back.

"Itai!" He softly say while he could hear Hinata still calling his name happily. He hugs her back .

"You did it! Ino is awake!" Hinata happily says as she keeps on hugging Naruto.

Naruto looked at the Yamanaka clan who seems to be celebrating and Ino Yamanaka who is hugging with Sai.

.

"You did great Naruto."

Kakashi congratulated him as he and Hinata gets up together.

"We will start interviewing Ino when she's well. Right now she have to have a good rest." Sakura informs as her medical team carries Ino again to bring her back to the hospital. "Are you okay Naruto?"

"yah. Im fine ttebayo!"

"Naruto, there's something you and I have to talk. So come into my office. The Kazekage will be there any minute from now and you're presence is expected on that meeting." Kakashi said and went outside following the rest of the Yamanaka clan members.

.

.


.

"Are you sure you're okay going all by yourself to your fathers house?" Naruto asked for the tenth time already.

"Of course. " she smiled and pushed Naruto gently towards the Hokage's office door. "Now get inside Naruto-kun, Gaara is there already."

"Okay okay." Naruto said.

She laughed at his silly antics, shes been pushing him towards the door for like a dozen of times and Naruto would come back to her and asked her if shes okay to go to the Hyuga by herself or if she's hungry since they haven't got lunch and only breakfast today,

"Ill see you later in the house." He said and then finally went inside the Hokage's office.

"Finally." Hinata giggled and went on her way towards the Hyuga residence.

.

.


.

.

"Hinata-sama!" Ko exclaimed seeing her from the main gate of the Hyuga estate.

"Ko" She smiled happily seeing her most trusted personal guard whose been there for her all throughout.

"Its nice seeing you again Hinata-sama."

"Thank You Ko. Its nice seeing you as well. Thank you for taking good care of father and Hanabi for me."

"You're always welcome Hinata-sama. Hanabi-sama isn't around but Hiashi sama is in the dojo."

"Thank you Ko. Ill go and see father right away."

.

.

.


.

"Two months has it. You must be very tired after such a long mission and you even bother yourself from coming here." Hiashi said as he and Hinata were sitting outside the dojo drinking a cup of tea while watching the sunset.

"Its okay Father, Visiting you and Hanabi has never been a bother to me." She said. "Although I wasn't able to see Hanabi today."

"You're sister has always been away recently. Shes been off to some places with someone."

"Really? Who?" she asked surprisingly.

"With that young man who calls your husband as brother. The grandson of the late third Hokage."

"Konohamaru?" she asked in surprise. "Since when?"

"Hmmmm..after you and Naruto's wedding, those two are inseparable. Though they said they are just friends hanging around and train together but I see more than that without my byakugan." He said laughing. "Just like how I see you so in love with Naruto."

Hinata blushed at his fathers words. "tou-sama."

"But I gotta say that my daughters are really something special, for them to attract those who have the genes of Hokage's." Hiashi said proudly and took another sip on his tea.

"Hows you and Naruto by the way? He didn't came here with you."

"He was having an important meeting with the Hokage and the Kazekage tou-sama although he wanted to come here as well." She said and poured another tea on her father's cup.

"hmmmm.. he is busy then. Well you have to prepare yourself then Hinata. You are married to the future Hokage and once Naruto will be the Hokage he will be a lot more busier than he is now. You will be the lady figure of the Hokage and thus you'll have to understand what he does and be there for him, Don't forget that."

Hinata look at her father and then to the orange sky. How could she forget that when everyday she always reminds herself that she and Naruto were married for this political advances of both Hyuga and Uzumaki.

Naruto's word towards her father always echoed in her ears.

I agreed on the proposal because Kakashi-sensei asked me too. Marryinga Hyuga would help me in my political status and it will be an advancement.


"Any news about mini version of you and Naruto?"

Hiashi's question had Hinata drop her tea on the ground.

"That reaction had told me you and Naruto haven't comsummate your marriage?" Hiashi commented. "Why?"

"tou-sama.. its just that…" She cant tell him a good reason. He wont understand if shell say that she want Naruto and her to do it for love. Because they love each other and not the same excuse as the reason behind their marriage.

Hiashi observe her daughter and as if knowing and reading whats in her mind he decided to set things right for her by telling her something Naruto said to him.

"Tadaima!" Naruto calls out as he enter their living room. "Hinata?" he calls out for his wife.

Seems like she's not at home yet. He forgot that she asked to visit her father today perhaps he should have went straight into his father in law's house then.

And then a sound of the front door opening had him excited. She's home!

"Welcome back!" He greeted at her only to be surprised by her running towards him and greet him in a tight embrace. She is crying.

"Hinata what is it?" he asked worriedly hearing her soft sobs.

Instead of answering him Hinata sealed his lips with hers.


"Naruto loves you Hinata, I can see it in his eyes."

her father said after telling her what Naruto had told her father when asked about why he wanted to marry her. Hinata heard words from her father that she havent got the chance to hear since at that time she remembers running away after hearing Naruto say that their marriage would be a political advances for him.

"And when you were away Naruto did something in this household. He is not a Hokage yet but he was able to convince most of the elders to abolished the cage bird seal. He received 18 votes out of 23. The cage bird seal is gone now Hinata, and Naruto did what he had promised.

And about your marriage to him. Do you think that Naruto is the type to marry someone because of politics?

Its funny but I think you and him both thinking the same thing. You both love each other and as such by loving each other you two decided to respect one another by holding yourselves to the ground. Thinking that one doesn't love the other.

Hinata if you think Naruto didn't love you, then perhaps he is thinking the same thing. You two are idiots that's what I can say on this matter. Think about it. He is in love with you, Believe it!

.


And she did. She did think hard. All the thing he had done, his actions, his eyes, his lips, everything says it all.

She was just being a coward from telling him again that she loves him. Perhaps Naruto is thinking that she isn't in love with him anymore.

"I'm sorry Naruto-kun."

"for what?" Naruto asked while still holding Hinata after the surprise kiss he received.

"I… I… for thinking something really stupid." She cried. "I heard you with father that day." She started. "He asked you about why you're marrying me and I only heard half of it." She confessed. "I thought you're marrying me for your image as the future Hokage and for any political advances that it could bring."

"What?" He was surprised.

"Hinata were you thinking about that this entire time?"

She nodded.

And so he understand the reason why she is so distant with him, now he knows whats been bothering with her.

He let out a sighed and smiled at her.

"Well, its my fault too. I should have told you sooner something I really wanted to say." He said looking at his crying wife lovingly.

"Hinata, I want to spend the rest of my life with you.I want you to be mine cause I Love you Hinata."

Hinata cries even more hearing such words from Naruto.

"Even if you wont feel the same I already decided back then to ask Hiashi for your hand in marriage, its just so happen than I am awaiting to be the Hokage at that time so I can impress you and your clan as well but hearing from Kakashi sensei that youre clan had set you up for an arrange marriage I know I have to do something. Heck I was even planning of kidnapping you if the council wont accept my proposal."

Hinata laughed amidst of her tears at his revelation.

"I was thinking all this time that you, being distant and uncomfortable in my presence, that you don't feel the same way as I do."

"Naruto-kun." Hinata carresed Naruto's face as Naruto pulled her closer to him. "I will always love you. I wont love anyone else cause its always have been you."

"Well you better be cause I aint letting you go remember?" And Naruto cant control it any longer.


Hinata can read Naruto's eyes. And she too wanted it.

Sensing she is ready and with her eyes approving of what he wanted, Naruto didn't waste a time but sealed Hinata's lips with his while carrying her to their bed.

Having Hinata lie flat on her back on the soft bed they always shared. But this time there would be no boundaries. All hell break lost for him.


She is burning up. Actually both of them are burning up as Naruto kissed her hungrily, they would gasped for air but only for a split of seconds as Naruto would dive in for another kiss.

His hands were roaming every inch of her. His touch were intoxicating, his hands crave for more and she can feel it. And she will give everything to him, all of her.

Naruto slipped something on her finger and as she took a look on what is it. Her wedding ring shines at her. Naruto was keeping it all this time. the ring that binds their marriage.

"I lOve you Hinata." Those words he whispers on her ears are music to her as she let out a soft moan.

For that night Hinata know that SHe and Naruto would become one.

Cause she knows now that He is in love with her. She just had to believe it

"Glad you are all well, Ino." Kakashi said while visiting the blonde ninja who seeks nonstop of his presence since she's been admitted and asked to rest.

"Thank you for coming here Hokage-sama." Ino bowed at the Hokage. eyeing Sakura and Sai the two knows that Ino wanted to talk with the Hokage alone.

When the doors closed Kakashi look at Ino seriously.

"What did you see Ino? What did you see in Kaoru Miya's head?"

Ino look at the window and closed her eyes.

"Kakashi-sensei. That anbu masked guy. I saw him on Kaoru MIya's head. I fought with him telepathically."

Kakashi went into the open window and look at the sky above waiting for Ino to finish her story.

"He pry on the young Miya's head, controlling him using his chakra that's inside of him. I tried fighting him and somehow he is out of chakra and I had the advantage, however... he tried to enter my head when I saw who he really is that resolve me for not thinking twice but to shut down my brain cells..." Ino controls the tears that forms on her eyes.

"Who is he Ino?" Kakashi asked still looking at the sky.
