So first i'm sorry this chapter took so long, i'm moving at the moment and I also start school tomorrow so i've been busy. I did this chapter a little different, I think im going to go back and forth on there point of views as the chapters go. It most likely be two chapters for each or maybe just one. The fist little part is Hinata talking and then it switches to Naruto. I kind of went back to his first meeting with Hinata then went to their present time so hopefully it will make sense. I hope you enjoy. I also know nothing about baseball so I didn't really get into detail about their game. I do not own Naruto.

It's been about a month since school started and I've tried stirring clear of Naruto, every time I see him I pass out. I don't understand why, he makes me so nervous and when im around him my cheeks feel like they're burning and my stomach feels like it's on a roller coaster. Why does he make me feel this way? What's so special about him? Why can't these questions be answered?! I was pacing my room and I'm pretty sure I burnt a hole in my carpet. I've noticed Naruto has a lot of energy, and for some reason when I see him at baseball practice he makes me get really into it, in class is another story though, he tends to sleep during class. Not that I was stalking him or anything, he's just always around where I am, I mean we do have the same friends and classes, except for 4th and 6th period. Lately I have been trying to hang around Kiba and Shino since they liked to wander around school instead of sit at the stage all lunch and snack. we'd run into Naruto every now and then and we'd have conversations and It kind of seemed like Naruto wants to tell me something because he just stares at me sometimes while Kiba and Sasuke are talking but I end up finding a way to avoid it. I stopped pacing and sat on my bed, why is it that Naruto makes me feel this way? D-do I li-like him? No, no way! How can I? We know nothing about each other and I pass out every time I see him. I sighed as I threw myself back onto my bed. I guess I'll just go to sleep for tonight and just hope for the best.

. . .

Let's go back to the first day of school, when everything seemed so boring. I was still the energetic and cheerful Naruto everyone knew but it felt like every day was a repeat of the last year. Even though I had made friends at school and the town didn't seem to hate or mind me as much as before. I can actually walk down the street and feel like everyone else, Sauske and I had become like brothers so I should be happy right? I was happy but there's something missing, I can't put my fingers on it. Maybe its ramen, maybe I need to eat a lot more of it, I haven't been eating much since i've been working so I can pay this dumb apartment.

Knock knock

"Naruto, you better be up, we have to head to school already."

It was Sasuke; we lived a few apartments away from each other. "Alright I'm coming out already", better time to leave to school than never.

We walked and talked about school, the team and typical boy stuff that wasn't important at the moment.

"Hey, I heard there's going to be a new student in class today."

"Really? Who is she?"

"I heard she was Nejis cousin from Japan, he says she's a real cutie." Sauske seemed interested in this girl. He probably thinks she will know his brother Itachi since he's in Japan. I kind of spaced out as we walked. When I realized I was spacing out we were at class. Another school year of doing the same thing, I started sliding the door open and walked in. that's when our eyes met, is that her? I felt my heart skip a beat. She got scared by Sakura and was about to fall over a desk, before I knew it I had sprinted towards her and she was in my arms, she felt so soft and smelled so amazing. What is this scent? It smelled so wow. "Hey, are you alright? You almost took a bad fall there."

Our eyes met again and she turned red, it looked like she was going to say something but then she passed out. "Hey! What happened?"

"Naruto what did you do?" I heard Sakura say with a very aggressive voice. I looked at her and she looked pissed.

"I just caught her before she hit the floor, I don't think she hit her head, I know I caught her before that!"

Sauske walked over and looked at her "so this is Hinata, she does kind of look like Neji if you ask me." he sighed and started walking around me to the other side of her where Sakura moved to let him through. "Guess we better take her to the nurses office", he started reaching to grab her but without my consent my hand slapped his away and he gave me a what the fuck look.

"Um I'll take her to the nurse, Sakura can you come along with me?" everyone looked at me weird, like I had done something bad but I couldn't stop myself, for some reason I didn't want anyone else to touch her. What am I even thinking, it's not like we know each other, and we haven't even met properly.

After I took her to Tsunade sensei, she said that she'd be in her care so she told us to go back to class; Sakura said shed check up on her at 4th so I told her alright. I really didn't want to leave her but it's not like I can stay either. Class went on and was boring but I didn't pay much attention and Hinata was all I had my mind on, first day of school and she passes out. Maybe something is wrong with her? But what was really bothering me was why I had acted that way when Sasuke was going to touch her. I spent snack in class thinking of her, 4th period me and Sasuke and a few of the guys had a different class than the others since we were on the baseball team and after is lunch, that's when I'll go and see how she is.

. . .

Ringgg

Lunch time finally, "hey i'm going to go see how that Hinata girl is doing so ill catch up to you guys later."

"I'm sure she's fine dude, Sakura is probably going to take her to the stage anyways so just come with us." Sasuke had a point it seemed like something Sakura would do but I felt like I had to go and check anyways.

"Nah, I'm going to go and see if she's in there first, then ill head over to the stage after." Sasuke just nodded his head and walked to the stage with the other guys. I started walking to the nurses' office, why am I going though? It feels like I have to see her. Plus it might be my fault she passed out, I could have made her hit her head when I caught her. Only one way to find out. The walk seemed to take forever since the nurses office was on the other side of the campus but I had finally gotten there, I walked in and Tsunade sensei was sitting on her desk.

"Hey is Hinata still here?"

"No she left with Sakura as soon as the bell rang. She seems to be fine and don't worry I checked for any head injuries and there were none, she might have just passed out from the shock of falling."

"Oh, that's good, I guess I'll be going thanks Tsunade sensei."

"Wait we need to talk about you being here in school. And a few other things that are important, i'm going to pull you out of class the rest of the day because there's a few things we need to talk to about."

"Awe Tsunade sensei cant it wait till afterrr lunch!?"

"No, if your grades keep falling, i'm going to kick you out of this school."

We had the usual conversation as always she gave me another plan to follow. I don't get it, school just started and she's already getting on my case about my grades.

We talked until school was out and a bit into practice but I was finally free and I went to the right field gym and got changed into uniform. Practice was uneventful, we all watched the freshmen to see which would join the team. When we went back to the gym and got changed I saw Neji, that's right Neji was Hinatas cousin, if he's here she must be too. He was already changed and walking out the gym with Lee, I had to hurry so I can go see her. I got dressed as fast as I could and headed for the door.

"Hey Naruto, what's the rush for?" Sasuke called to me and looked kind of pissed, well he always looked that way.

"I'm just going to go outside, it's kind of hot in here, I'll wait for you out there alright" he gave me a confused look but then nodded and went back to getting dressed.

Hopefully she's still out there, me wanting to see her was beyond my reasoning but I needed to see her. I walked out calmly but still kind of speed walking. There she is, it looks like she was about to leave, good I caught up to her. I put my hand on her shoulder and she turned around. Our eyes met again, I really loved her eyes.

"Hey, you're Hinata right? How are you feeling?"

"Uhh y-yes I'm good, thank you." Her face was getting red again; it was kind of cute how red she got the first time now that I think back to it.

"I'm glad, I was really surprised when you passed out I thought you had hit your head or something. I wanted to go see you during lunch but you weren't in the nurses' office anymore. Then Tsunade started lecturing me about my grades and what not, really it was a drag."

"I-it's fine I wanted to thank you for catching and carrying me to the nurses office."

"Well I'm really glad you're alright, I'll see you in class tomorrow", I smiled at her and started to turn away. My cheeks were getting hot so I knew I had to get away before I made a fool of myself, was I getting nervous or something? We waved by to each other and went our separate ways.

. . .

A month passed by and she seemed to be avoiding me, every time I saw her with Kiba and Shino it kind of made me jealous. It's weird but it was kind of exciting, every day was different for some reason. Was this feeling of wanting to see someone every day the one I was missing? When me and Sasuke would wander the school during lunch I had tried talking to her but I kind of always froze, she really was beautiful to me, and it would make me get this feeling in my stomach. I never felt like this before, not even when I had a crush on Sakura, it's even more exciting than when I used to fight with Sasuke. She gives me a thrill. I have to get her alone. Maybe I should ask her on a date? No that's weird right? Wait Sakura is having a party after Friday's game; maybe I should talk to her then. What if she doesn't go though? I'm sure if Neji goes then she will right? She has been to every practice that we've had, I should know because there were those moments that our eyes would meet and I'd start to blush. There were times when she was talking to Tenten and she would start to smile and it would make me feel all warm. I have to do something, I have to know more about her. I want to know you Hinata. I'm going to do my best to let you see that.

. . .

The week went by fast, it was finally Friday, I only saw Hinata in class and she would smile at me sometimes that truthfully made me melt. School was almost over and the team was getting ready for tonights game. Everyone was talking about tonight's party; it was pretty great when Sakura threw a party.

"Hey Naruto are you going tonight?" Sasuke nudged at my arm.

"Yeah, I have nothing else to do you know. Are you going?"

"I kind of have to since Sakura is my girlfriend, she'd be pissed if I didn't go." I forgot they were dating, he doesn't really act like they are in my opinion, but Sasuke was used to be alone just like me so you can't really expect anything else from him.

"True, we'll let's hope this game goes good. Then we can really party after"

The game went pretty quickly and we also won, which was great. I was so focused on the game, whenever I played; it felt like I was in a different world. Everyone in the gym was cheering and Neji was giving a victory speech.

"Alright guys, now let's go party!" Neji screamed and everyone scram with him. At least that answers my question if Neji was going.

. . .

I went home and got ready and then headed for Sakuras house, I was getting nervous but I knew I was excited to see if Hinata was going to be there. i'm going to ask her on a date tonight. well not a date, im just going to talk to her. I walked to Sakuras and met up with Sasuke and the guys on the way. When we got there Neji wasn't there yet, so it was safe to say Hinata wasn't there yet either. Well that's if she is going to come. I don't know if she is the party type of girl. I went and got something to drink while Sasuke went to Sakura, I hung around a few guys from the team, but I wasn't really paying attention to them at all, I was watching the door for her. I didn't want to get drunk or anything so I stuck to some juice that was in Sakuras fridge, I wanted to be completely sober for when I saw her.

The door had opened and in came Lee and Tenten; once they were here i'm sure that Neji wasn't too far behind. They walked in and started talking, I looked back at the door and there was Neji. My body froze and I dropped my drink as well as my jaw that droped open, there she was. She looked absolutely stunning and I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I had to slap myself and get a grip back on reality. I started walking to her and I had the strangest feeling like I needed to kiss her. That's when her gorgeous purple eyes met mine.
