When Hinata awoke, she suddenly realized that she was in the hospital. She started to think to herself.

I feel so drowsy, especially with this pain at the back of my head. All I remember is seeing Naruto-kun and the way he smiled at me. The smile that always warms my hea-
Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door quietly opening which sent fear paralyzing her body. Her breathing went from even, to heavy, to... She couldn't think straight, thoughts were swarming her mind, engulfing her into a deep darkness of uselessness, hopelessness, and solitary confinement. The person who quietly opened the door was now at her bed trying to bring her back to life for her body was now cold and limp.

Hinata was lying on her back and conscious was slowly leaving her it made her situation even worse because she didn't know who it was.
She tried desperately to see who it was but, it was no use to her, It was like trying to turn your head in a full three sixty. But, in the effort only found the pain at the back of her head intensified. Soon she was blacking out completely.
"Hinata!" Naruto yelled. "Hinata can you hear me?"
No reply.
"Hinata you can't just give up like that!" Naruto yelled "Please just try to wake up." Naruto sighed and looked over at the medic nin beside him.
"Sakura is there anything more you think you can do?"
"I don't think so Naruto." Sakura said while still healing. " I wish I knew what else was wrong, I really can't pinpoint it but it's causing her a lot of pain."
"Hinata please we all can't afford to loose you. Just come back I've lost way too many friends like this. You have to! You still have a goal to reach in your life! Don't quit now." Naruto pleaded.
"Please... we love you." he squeezed her hand. Hinata stirred.
"Hnnn..." she said.
"Hinata!" Naruto said. "Tell us, where does it hurt you?" Naruto asked her.
"Nar-naruto kun..." She started to black out again. "It hur-hurts ri-right here." she said trying to point in the back of her head.
"Ok thank you Hinata." But, she didn't hear what he said to her for she already blacked out. Sakura looked at Naruto giving him a look that said thank you. She turned Hinata over and put her hands to the back of her head. Hinata's expression softened as she slept. Finally Sakura stopped and looked at Naruto. Her work was done.
"Alright Naruto I have to go. But she should be fine now." Naruto sighed he didn't feel like talking so he just nodded his head at Sakura.
"Goodbye." Naruto looked over at Hinata who was now sleeping peacefully.
"Goodnight Hinata." Naruto said and left the hospital to go home. He'd come back later and stay the whole night.

Gaara walked into Hinata's hospital room. He was smiling a devilish smile that made demonic angels cower. He walked over to her and sneered. "Ahh Hinata I have you now. You can't escape me. You're poor Naruto has gone home thinking you were safe but it's too bad he was wrong."
He slowly pulled off her covers to reveal her white hospital gown and her head wrapped in bandages. "Awww my poor Hinata it seems you've been hurt." He slowly untied her outfit and began to strip her. Just then Naruto walked in and saw Gaara. Without asking any questions he lunged at him and drew a kunai. Gaara's sand countered it. But Naruto was a step ahead taking another kunai and stabbing him in the back with it.
"Fuck!" Gaara yelled but he really shouldn't have because Naruto was really pissed so he was getting the shit beat out of him by the time he stopped cursing. He quickly retaliated back. He punched Naruto in the jaw and then tried to sand coffin him but Naruto was pissed off and really quick for some reason. They both kept fighting until Gaara began to loose slowly. Hinata woke up and looked at what Naruto and Gaara were doing.
"Naruto...?" she just said staring with wide eyes. Naruto disposed of Gaara out the window and then turned to Hinata.
"Sorry about that Hinata, but it you look at your hospital gown you'll see what he was trying to do." Hinata looked at him and then at her gown which was almost undone and then blushed and looked away.
"Hehe..." Naruto lightly chuckled. He took a seat in one of the chairs in which he fell asleep in after Hinata had dozed off.

Hinata woke up before Naruto. She totally forgot that he was staying in the hospital with her. Naruto was now awake rubbing his eyes from sleep.
"Goood Morning, Hinata." He said yawning
"G-good Morning Na-naruto-kun" she said still in the blakents
"Sakura said that you're good to go."
"Good to go home?"
"Yup Hinata good to go home."
"Oh ok-okay. I guess I should g-get up th-then."
"I think so too. I'll leave so you can get dressed. Hinata nodded.

Hinata smiled and began to rise off the bed only to realize that she hadn't developed enough strength to stand up. She began to fall and scream at the same time. Luckily Naruto hadn't left yet and was there just in time to catch her.
"Hehe couldn't let you fall there Hina."
"Th-thank you Naruto-kun." He smiled at her and she blushed. Naruto then left and Hinata changed into her clothes. She tried again to get up and found that she could. Slowly she opened the door and walked to Naruto. After being checked up on by Sakura, Tsunade, and Shizune she was clarified to leave. Naruto walked with her smiling at her all the while keeping Hinata's face on permanent blush mode. Naruto noticed what he was doing to her and stopped smiling.
"Na-Naruto kun wh-why did you stop smi-smiling?"
"It was making you blush. Even though it does make you look cute." That made Hinata blush redder than a swollen palm. Naruto just laughed.
Did Naruto kun just say I was cute? And he smiled at me. Naruto kun smiled at me. He did! I wonder if he's starting to like me now. I hope so. I love him so much.
Hinata suddenly felt calm by Naruto's side instead of shy like she usually was. He looked down at her and wondered if he should ask her what he wanted to ask her all this while.
"Hey umm...Hinata I was wondering if you wanted to go to the beach with me and the rest of my team, Ino's team, and your team too.
"Umm... o-ok Na-Naruto k-kun I-I would umm like to go."
"Great it's on Sunday! Come okay." Hinata nodded blushing even redder than your average swollen scab.
(Well maybe not that scabby of a scab, though)
