Chapter 2: The Start Of Something New

Waking up to the bright sun, Naruto quickly gets dressed in his trade mark orange jacket and pants. Excited about the day, he rushes to the Hyuuga family mansion to find that it looks even more amazing with the light shining down on it. When he arrives at the door, he knocks on the door to find Neji opening it.

"Hmm? What brings you here today Naruto? Neji said with a puzzled look on.

"Oh, Mrs.Hyuuga invited me over for breakfast." happily smiling

"I see, then come in."

"Why thank you Neji."

Both Neji and Naruto then walk to the dining area to find Mrs.Hyuuga and Hiashi sitted down already.

"How nice to see you Naruto." Mrs.Hyuuga said with a smile

"Same to you Mrs. Hyuuga, and thank you for inviting me over today."

"It's the least we could do since you treated Hinata to ramen."

"Awww, it was nothing, really."

"Well, we should be starting soon. Neji would you go and get Hinata along with Hanbi as well." She said sternly

"Hai." Neji said as he bowed and left the room."

"Oh, Naruto why don't you have a seat right on the side there."

"Sure thing Mrs.Hyuuga." he said as he walked to his seat.

"So Naruto, what have you been up to these past week?" Hiashi asked with a serious look.

"I've been training very hard these past weeks and practicing secret techniques that Ero-sennin is trying to teach me, but they're so hard to master." he said explaining everything

"Oh, I see. So what new techniques have you been learning exactly?" Hiashi said curiously

"Now Mr.Hyuuga if I told you what the techniques were they wouldn't really be "secret techniques" now would they?" Naruto said chuckling

"Very well, keep it to yourself as you want."

Just as Haishi and Naruto finished talking, Neji came back with Hinata and Hanabi behind him. Hinata didn't know that Naruto was over so when she saw him, her heart skipped a beat, and she turned a deep red.

"Nice to see that all of you are awake now. Take your seats if you will, we have a guest with us today." Mrs.Hyuuga said with her hand pointing out the empty seats.

"Hai." all three of the hyuugas standing said.

As Hinata began to sit in the seat which was next to Naruto's, she began to turn an even deeper red.

"Oy! Hinata, why are you so red? You have a fever or something?" Naruto said curiously

"I-I'm fine N-Naruto-kun." she said shyly

"If you say so….." he said as he thought about how she turned red a lot when she was around him.

Why is she always so red when I'm around her? Is she allergic to me or something? This always happens if I'm around her or talk to her…. Well she's a shy person so maybe that's why….

He then just let the thought pass by since he knew about how shy Hinata could be.

"So what are we having today?" Naruto said hungrily

"Just some rice and miso soup, does that sound good? Mrs.Hyuuga asked

"That sounds great!" he said excitedly

The food soon came, and all of them ate to there content. After finishing the breakfast, everyone left the table except for Naruto and Hinata who were relaxing a bit after their meal.

"So Hinata, when do you want to start the training?

"We can start it now if you would like, at the spot where you found me" she said blushing

"Sounds good, and we should get moving now then." he said grinning

"Okay, N-Naruto-kun."

Both of them then got up ready to leave for the enclosed spot where Naruto has found Hinata yesterday. Hinata also brought along a basket with food for them to eat after they finished they're training. Warming up with some stretches before they actually start fighting one another.

"Okay Hinata, I'm not going to go easy on you now, but tell me when you want to stop." he said sternly

"Hai, N-Naruto-kun!" she said as she got into her stance

Naruto started off by throwing some punches and kicks at her, all of which were blocked quickly. He then did Kage Bunshin No Jutsu with all his clones throwing kunai at her while he went in for a hit. Hinata dodged the kunai and blocked Naruto's hit as well. She then threw a couple of strikes at him with jyuuken that Naruto barely dodged. After that, Naruto threw kunais with explosive tags attached to them at her, which exploded and managed to hit her. Hinata quickly gained her footing after being blown away and hitting a tree. Even though Hinata had been partially hit, Naruto didn't go any easier on her, and one again did he shadow clone jutsu and surrounded Hinata. He then did his U-zu-ma-ki Naruto Renden to find that the Hinata was just a clone, and was suddenly hit in the back with jyuuken which sent him flying into a tree causing a big crash. After getting up, he saw Hinata standing in front of him holding her left arm, and clutched the spot where Hinata had striked him. He was impressed with her skill, and continued on with the strikes against each other. After the training was over Hinata was covered in bruises and some cuts while Naruto had only a few wounds.

"Oy! Hinata-san, you were really good with the training today!"

"T-thank y-you N-Naruto-kun" she said smiling and slighting blushing

"Wow, the day passed by fast with our training, it's almost lunch time now. Want to get some food now?"

"Uhh, s-sure N-Naruto-kun"

"Okay, let's go then" he said smiling

"Oh, N-Naruto-kun, I m-made us some food for us t-today…" she said as she turned a slight red

"Huh? Oh, you did! How nice Hinata-san!"

Hinata then presumed to setting out the picnic with Naruto helping too. She still couldn't believe what had been happening the past days, and was blushing with the thoughts.

"What did you make for lunch Hinata-san?" he asked curiously

"Ummm… Some r-rice balls, s-sushi, and b-bubble tea"

"That's sounds good, can't wait to eat!" he said hungrily

"W-well, everything is s-set, so dig in…"

Naruto presumed to eating one of the rice balls and was amazed at how delicious it was, he couldn't believe how good of a cook Hinata was.

"Oy! Hinata-san, this is great! I've never had anything as good as this, I bet you'll make an awesome wife one day." he said smiling

"Oh, T-thank y-you N-naruto-kun." she said turning a bright red.

Is this really happening! He thinks my cooking is good and that I'll make a great wife one day! If that's true I hope that I'll be his wife. I hope this isn't a dream…

They continued to eat, and soon it grew dark. When they were finished, they threw all the garbage in a nearby trashcan, and got ready to go home.

"That was such a good lunch Hinata-san. You should cook more often!"

"Y-you're to k-kind N-Naruto-kun" she said while blushing furiously

"Well I think that it really was good, and hope that you will cook more often." he said while grinning

"I'll t-try i-if you r-really like t-the food." she said while playing with her fingers

"That would be great, and it's getting late so why don't I walk you home."

"O-Okay N-Naruto-kun"

Naruto then walked Hinata home, and both of them said nothing as they walked. They soon arrived at the Hyuuga mansion, and wouldn't talk until they arrived at the steps to door.

"Well, this is your stop, so see you tomorrow?"

"Y-yes N-Naruto-Kun"

"Oh, before I got Hinata-san, can I just ask you one question?

"S-sure N-naruto-kun…"

"I just wanted to know why you always turn red when you're around me… Just seemed kind of strange to me…"

"Oh, w-well…. y-you see, I k-kind of l-li-li……" Hinata fainted before she could tell Naruto that she liked him.

As Hinata fainted, Naruto caught her and set her down on the steps.

"Oy! Hinata-san, you alright?" he said with concern

"N-Naruto-kun…" she said as she slowly opened her eyes.

"You've had a rough day, so I'll just bring you inside…"

Naruto then carried Hinata to the door, and knocked on it to reveal Mrs.Hyuuga behind it. Mrs.Hyuuga was surprised to see Naruto carrying Hinata, and what had happened.

"Naruto, what happened to Hinata?" she said curiosly

"Umm, well you see she fainted when she was answering a question I asked her, so I just decided to put her in her bed before she fainted again…" he said explaining everything.

"Oh… I see, well her room is down this hall the second door on the right, so you can go put her in now."

"Oh, okay."

Naruto walked to Hinata's room seeing it for the first time, and thought it was very nice. He set her down in her bed and put the blanket over her, and then left, shutting the door behind him. After leaving the mansion, he walked home quietly, and got dressed for bed, thinking about what has just happened at the Hyuuga's.

I wonder why she fainted…. She always does that when she's around me…

Am I that sickening or something? Well, maybe she won't faint tomorrow... I wonder if I should ask her again tomorrow... Maybe I should, but if I don't I'll never know why she always acts so weird around me… I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to see what I should do I guess…

Naruto was so curious about why Hinata would always faint or turn red around him, he always just thought it was because she was shy, but found that she would sometimes turn red for no reason. It bothered his mind when he thought about it.

How was that as a little twist?
