So here's chapter 2. Thank you for the follows and the reviews. Please don't stop! Once again, I own nothing but the story idea.
Neji desperately tried to figure out a plan to get Naruto to confess but in a way in which Neji would end up spending the least amount of time around the obnoxious shinobi.
"Hey! Neji!"
Neji turned to see said ninja running after him, waving his arms as if the orange in his clothes weren't visible enough. Neji stopped and waited for Naruto to catch up. The Hyuuga prodigy stared, waiting for Naruto to catch his breath. When he was breathing regularly, Neji stared at the blonde with one eyebrow raised in question.
"I wanted to talk to you about something...someone really...um specifically Hinata," Naruto began to look worried and uncomfortable. Half expecting Neji to punch him and demand he stay away from the heiress. Instead he saw Neji with a far off look in his eyes and a smirk on his face
"Naruto, how about we get some Ichiraku and discuss these things." Neji couldn't help but feel smug. He didn't have to do much of anything. Naruto came to him wanting to talk about Hinata. He couldn't wait to get this talk over with so he could meet up with Tenten.
In Ichiraku Naruto finished his fifth bowl before finally talking to Neji. After several cautious glances at Neji he began.
"Hinata said she loved me...did you know that?" He gulped and waited for Neji's response.
"I know of her feelings for you. Only an idiot wouldn't notice how she always faints around you..." Neji trailed off noticing how solemn Naruto got and realized Naruto was the idiot in this case. He tried to soften his words.
"I didn't mean it that way. You have been so focused on your goals, how could you have noticed?" Neji tried to smile at the shinobi but Naruto could only stare at his empty bowl.
"Neji?" Naruto looked up with such intensity it startled Neji a bit. "I think I have a new goal that I want."
Naruto turned in his seat and walked out and stared at the sky. Neji was about to join him when he realized that he was stuck with the bill. After paying, Neji joined the blonde. Naruto turned from the sky and looked at Neji.
"I'm going to win the heart of Miss Hinata Hyuuga!" With that he threw his hand up in a fist, determination in his eyes.
