So my goal was a chapter a day but I had some writer's block but here's chapter 3, only a day late, so enjoy! Please review and I don't own anything but the story plot.
Naruto peeked around a corner, spying on the girl who normally watches him from the shadows
I need to talk to her but just thinking about that makes me blush, he thought.
After his exclamation with Neji he realized that he had no idea how to woo her. Maybe his loud and ignorant charm worked before but now he wanted to purposefully catch her attention. He needed to get some advice.
"Neji?! NEJI!" Naruto stood outside his friend's window and continued to call out.
"What?!" Neji burst open the window and looked annoyingly at the blonde. "What do you want. I'm a bit...busy"
"Neji? Why'd you answer him? Come back!" Naruto heard a familiar voice. Neji blushed upon hearing Tenten's voice, knowing that Naruto could hear her.
"Um...never mind Neji I'll go find Shikamaru you seem VERY busy," Naruto turned and left Neji in search of his other friend. He found Shikamaru in his favorite spot on the roof. Only, like Neji, he was with his lady friend. Temari of the sand.
Chunin proctors my ass, Naruto thought as he approached the two. Shikamaru was laying down, his head on Temari's lap while the two watched the clouds.
"Hey Shikamaru! Got a sec? I want some help. Maybe Temari can give me some advice too."
"Hi Naruto. And you need advice? On what?" Shikamaru asked in a lazy tone, his eyes staying on the clouds.
"Well I want to ask Hinata out on a date but I don't know what to do," Naruto felt slightly embarrassed at his cluelessness on girls while it seemed like all his friends had girlfriends.
"Ugh girl problems? What a drag...ouch!" He rubbed his forehead on the spot where his girlfriend smacked him.
"Girls are not a drag nor are they troublesome Shika! Now, Naruto what you need to do is just be yourself. Minus the whole I'm-ignorant-to-your-feelings-believe-it thing. Just be mindful of her feelings, not just your own. Compliment her. And don't call her troublesome. Not all girls find that charming." She said the last part glaring playfully at Shikamaru.
"You may be a drag some times but you're worth it," Shikamaru said with his eyes closed earning him a kiss from his troublesome woman.
Naruto watched this display of their banter and wanted it with Hinata. Only he wanted something sweeter. Because unlike Temari, Hinata was a sweet and caring girl and he wanted to be the best man for her. So with the advice Temari gave him, Naruto headed towards the Hyuuga compound to ask the girl of his dreams on a date that would hopefully be the time of her life.
