"Hinata! Hinata!" yelled Naruto, waving his arms trying to get Hinata's attention.

"Y-yes, N-naruto-kun?" Hinata had just finished shopping for groceries and was heading home.

"Come build a snowman with me! Sasuke-teme won't, Sakura-chan won't, Neji won't, Kiba won't, no one wanted! Please?" he begged. He really wanted to build one. Hinata hesitated, but agreed. "Great! You start making the middle and I'll do the bottom!" They both got to work, hoping they would get it done by noon. They talked; well Naruto did most of the talking. They finished before noon and Hinata took a carrot out of a grocery bag and stuck it onto the head of the snowman. Naruto found rocks to be the eyes, mouth and buttons.

"T-there, Naruto-kun. W-we're f-finished." Hinata stuttered. She was getting a little cold and her cheeks were red. When she didn't hear Naruto, she turned around to look for him, only to be hit by a snowball. She fell.

"Oops! Sorry Hinata! Didn't think you'd fall."

Hinata wiped some snow off her. "It's o-okay."

"Wanna have a snowball fight? Please?" Hinata shook her head. "Why?"

"I have to go home," she answered.

"Can I come?" He asked, hoping for a 'yes'.

"I-I don't kn-know, but I guess you could come eat."

Naruto cheered. "Ramen! Ramen! Ramen!" Hinata couldn't help but giggle a bit. She started walking back to her house, Naruto trailing behind her like a puppy. They got to her house and she made some ramen for him. He, suprisingly, didn't make a mess. He just slurped up his ramen quietly. After eating, he put his bowl down and looked around her house.

"Wow, your house is big! I mean, not as big as Sasuke-teme's but bigger than Sakura's, Ino's and mine combined!" Hinata smiled. "And you make the best ramen ever!" This time she blushed.

"Thank you," she whispered. Naruto looked at her with concern. "Eh? Hinata, your face is all red! Are you sick? Do you need some rest? Oh, I know. You probably got a cold after helping me build a snowman and getting hit by my snowball," He rubbed his neck. "Sorry."

"A-ano, it's n-not your fault, N-Naruto-kun."

"I'm still sorry, though."

"What are you doing here?" A voice interrupted. All eyes turned onto Neji.

"Oh, hey Neji!"

"N-Neji-nii!" Hinata seemed suprised. She thought Neji was training.

"I asked, what are you doing here?" he asked Neji.

Naruto flashed one of his big smiles at him and said, "Hinata and I were making a snowman and I was hungry, so Hinata made some ramen for me! Have you ever tried her cooking skills? You should!"

Neji glared. "Just don't touch her."

He held up his hands. "Ok, ok." and to Hinata, "I'm going now. I think I left the tap on in the bathroom, but wanna build a snowman next time?"

Hinata nodded. "Great!" he replied and left, tripping on a rock and falling into the snow on the way. She sighed. Oh how she loved building snowmen now.
