Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Mama's a Fourth Grader
AN: Well I got a very good reason for posting this chapter so late and that is because Ohio got hit by Hurricane Ike (well the winds of Ike we didn't get the rain, they were around 76-84 MPH aka category 1 hurricane) on Sunday and I lost electricity, my house was almost hit by a tree, my grandparents' house did get hit slightly by one, and there was a lot to clean up so I'm back now and can say that I lived through a hurricane (I was the one who lassoed the tree (in the middle of the hurricane I might add) that almost hit my house (well my parents' house))
Mama's an Academy Student
Chapter 7
Grades
(End of class Thursday)
"Ok class, don't forget the quiz tomorrow" said Iruka to his students as all but Hinata and Naruto left.
"Naruto, I noticed you grades are improving lately and if you pass tomorrow's quiz you'll no longer be last in class what really, maybe Sakura-chan will like me then, but I'm having trouble with the stuff on the Fourth" said Naruto much to the dismay of Hinata.
"Well, I have an idea on how to help you and you might even have better grades than Kiba by the end of the year, but Hinata will have to go along with the idea" said Iruka.
"I'll help if I can" said Hinata.
"Well I think you can help, I would like you two to study together" said Iruka.
"But why with me, Shikamaru is the smartest in the class" said Hinata then mumbled "though he is too lazy to prove it."
"He's too lazy and you're in the same house as Naruto so neither of you would have to worry about staying out late or parents worrying about you" said Iruka as he thought 'that and it might get Naruto to notice you more since it will force you two to talk to each other more.'
"I'm ok with it if Hinata is because she's smart too" said Naruto.
"Ok, I'll help Naruto-kun study" said Hinata.
"Well, let's head home then so we can have supper and you two can study for tomorrow" said Iruka.
(Later that night Naruto and Hinata studying)
"We will start with the problems you are having with the fourth Hokage, is that alright, Naruto-kun?" said Hinata.
"Ok, well my big problem is my history book says that the Fourth died while he killed the Kyuubi and his wife and kid died in labor that same night but I looked at Iruka-sensei's and it said that the Fourth was never married or had a kid, so I don't know which book is right but I wouldn't think that Iruka-sensei would have the wrong one and I don't know why I would have the wrong book" said Naruto.
"Why have you not asked Iruka-sensei about your book?" asked Hinata while she thought 'though it is odd that your book is closer to the truth.'
"I did once and he even gave me a new book but I still find pages that are different then everybody else's book" said Naruto.
"That is weird, I do not think Iruka-sensei would give you the wrong book but I don't know who is doing or how your book is getting switched" said Hinata.
"I know it's not Iruka-sensei he wouldn't do something like that, but I don't know who's doing it either" said Naruto.
"Well you can share my book and we will study together so we only need one book" said Hinata.
"Wow, Hinata-chan you're a whole lot nicer then Sakura-chan" stated Naruto thinking 'did I just call Hinata-chan, Hinata-chan, I guess I did but she is nicer then Sakura-chan.'
'Did he just call me Hinata-chan, must have been a slip' thought Hinata as she said "Well, I do l-like… to help y-you, I mean people" said Hinata nervously.
"Why are you stuttering again, you haven't stuttered since Tuesday" said Naruto.
"It is nothing, let us get back to studying" said Hinata thinking 'I did not notice that I have stopped stuttering I must be use to being around Naruto-kun, but I still can't seem to tell him how I feel."
"Ok" said Naruto and they studied together for the rest of the night.
(The next day after class)
"Have a great weekend and see you on Monday" said Iruka as all but Hinata and Naruto left once again.
"So, how did I do on the test Iruka-sensei?" asked Naruto.
"You did great Naruto, and you did too Hinata, if you two keep it up you might graduate at the top of the class in academics, you should work together on the jutsus and you could even beat Sasuke by then" said Iruka.
"What, really, we could be that good" said Naruto.
"Yes you two could be" said Iruka.
"If I was better than Sasuke then Saku..." Naruto paused thinking 'I don't think that it would matter to her if I was smart but Hinata seems to like to help me.' "No she wouldn't like me anyway" said Naruto then asked Hinata "so after diner you want to practice our jutsus Hinata."
"Ok" said Hinata.
"Well let's get home then" said Iruka as they left the school.
"Good they're finally gone now to see what that demon got on the test" whispered a man behind a mask not knowing that there was someone else that was watching Naruto.
"What that's impossible Danzo-sama had me switch his book twice there's no way that he did this good I just will have to change it and tell Danzo-sama" said the man as he changed Naruto's grade and left.
'Maybe I should give Naruto a chance but I can't let anyone but the Hokage know about what I just saw or who knows what Danzo will do to me' thought the person that was originally watching Naruto as they left.
(Root Headquarters)
"Danzo-sama the demon's grades have greatly improved since he was assigned to watch that baby, what are you to have me do about it" said the man in the mask.
"What I he becomes a ninja me plans to force him to join us will be ruined, and you will do nothing, I will trick Mizuki in to helping us, he hates the demon anyway and I will have him keep an eye on Naruto's grades and make sure he fails" said Danzo.
"Very well Danzo-sama I'll go get Mizuki for you" said the man in the mask as he left to find Mizuki.
(Mean while in the Hokage's office)
"Come in" said the Third when he heard a knock on his office door.
"Hokage-sama I have some bad news I must bring to your attention" said Sakura's mom as she walked in to the office.
"How bad is it?" asked the Third.
"Very I'd say, Danzo's ROOT still exists and they're interfering with Naruto's schooling and grades for some reason that I don't know" said Sakura's mom.
"I already knew that ROOT was still around but it sounds like they're planning something so I keep a closer eye on them and try to find out what it is, now why are you even bring this up to me, thought that you hated, and I quote 'the demon kid'" said the Third.
"I hated Naruto because I though that he was the demon with the way he acted, pranks are something thing that fox demons known to do but after what I saw and heard I'm not so sure any more" said Sakura's mom.
"Well it's good to hear that there is someone else that doesn't hate Naruto, though I'm sure you'll still be watching he like you have been, anything else I should know about" said the Third.
"No" Sakura's mom said embarrassed that someone had found out that she was following Naruto around.
"Then you may go" said the Third and then Sakura's mom left.
