Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto!
Author's Note- Hey guys, since I've had so much inspiration I decided to submit this chapter. But, since I've been updating quite so frequently it will be awhile until my next one! Well you enjoyed it while it lasted.. who knows it might happen again winks have fun reading Narutofan462
What had just happened? Had Hinata Hyuuga and Naruto Uzamaki actually have their first fight ever since being best friends for eleven years?
Naruto looked at the pink-haired girl and just dryly said, "Let's go to homeroom." Without any emotion what so ever.. Sakura followed him but, couldn't help and wonder what was happening in this world.
Sakura and Hinata had the same homeroom so maybe she could talk to her maybe defend naruto or help mend this.. "Hinata, hey!" She tried to sound causal. "Sakura, hey sorry about missing movie night! I'll make it up to you I promise." She assured her.
"So, how was your date with Sasuke last night?" Sakura asked. "It was nice he took me on a yacht and had candles and flowers all over it was soo romantic..He is so sweet to me Sakura!" She said. "I'm very happy for you." Sakura said trying to sound truly happy.
Hinata's silver eyes met her emerald ones and she said, "I know how I used to like Naruto and all but, I have to move on now.. Sasuke actually likes me, pays attention to me and cares about me. Not just like a friend more than one.." Sakura nodded, "You're absolutely right, You be happy hinata you deserve it." She tried her best to smile. She went back to her seat but, didn't naruto deserve to be happy as well?
I mean he does like Hinata but, being an idiot and denying it.. he is soo going to regret this in the future. Junior Prom was days away now.. would naruto finally pluck the courage and stop denying he likes her before he loses her forever?
First period english
"Psst, naruto!" Sakura whispered. Naruto turned around, "What?" "When are you going to apologize to Hinata? She said she'd make up movie night this morning to me! Come on just say sorry so you can be friends again! I mean you guys never fight!" Naruto shook his head, "No, she's letting sasuke control her life sure it might be one movie night now but, what about next month it could be something big?"
Sakura angrily said, "Oh my god! Can you stop being such a stubborn ass!" She ignored him and pretending to work on her essay but, just was worried.. what if this ruined their friendship forever?
LUNCH
Naruto and Sakura were sitting at their usual table waiting for Hinata and Sasuke. To their surprise only Hinata came down and she said, "Hey guys, Sasuke left early so he's not coming." Sakura said, "That's alright we can chat you know about girl stuff together." Hinata hesitantly looked over at Naruto who was avoiding her gaze and she slowly, "Naruto, I know you're upset about me dating Sasuke but, he's your best friend doesn't that mean he's good enough for me?"
Naruto just kept eating ignoring her. She sighed and said, "Fine, don't talk to me but, can we at least work this out after school in the parking lot at three pm?" Sakura looked at Naruto hoping he'd agree. He said, "You sure Sasuke won't just suddenly spring another surprise and we'll have to re-schedule this talk?"
"Oh my god, I can't believe you are still mad about that! Yes, I'm sure.. Pleasee.. come and we'll work this out at 3pm. See you then." Hinata plainly said. She took her books and left to the library.
As soon as she left Sakura asked, "You're going to go right?" "Why should I?" He complained. Sakura smashed the empty lunch tray on his head, "Are you really this stupid! At least go talk to her! Just yesterday you said you were fine with them dating!" "Oucch!! That hurtt you're being mean to you prom date here sakura-chan!" Naruto cried out in pain.
"Ooh quit it! I mean seriously stop avoiding her! You guys have been friends since forever! Something like her getting a boyfriend shouldn't mess up your friendship!!" Sakura yelled. Suddenly the lunch room got all quiet and she laughed and said, "It's nothing, just practicing for the school playy."
"See, what you do god." She said quite pissed. She went off to buy a bag of chips leaving Naruto in this thoughts.. Maybe he should meet her at the parking lot sakura was right they have been friends since forever.. maybe they could fix this..
I mean all she had to do was dump sasuke and things would be back to normal.. Sakura came back and said, "So, you going to meet her today?" He grinned, "Of course I will." She hugged him and said, "I knew you'd come around!"
PARKING LOT AFTER SCHOOL 3 pm
Hinata was waiting for the blonde she once adored. Her cell phone rang the caller id read Sasuke Uchiha she picked up and said, "Hello?" "Hey, beautiful sorry I left early today we can do something later." Sasuke smoothly suggested. She smiled, "Sure, but right now I'm going to meet Naruto at the parking lot.." "Naruto? Why are you meeting him?" He asked.
"Don't worry Sasuke, we're just clearing up some things.. He was upset I missed movie night that's all." She reassured him. "Okay, call me when you're done." She said, "Sure, see you later." He said, "Alright, see you."
She closed her phone and finally saw a pink-haired girl and the loud mouthed blonde headed her way. She was overjoyed he came.. She was so scared he wouldn't since she still wanted to be friends with him.
"Hey guys, I'm so glad you came." She said happily. Sakura grinned, "We wouldn't miss it for the world." The blonde finally made eye contact with his old best friend. Sakura pushed him forward and she said, "I'll let you guys chat."
As she went walking around, Naruto said, "So, Sakura told me you are going to make it up movie night?" Hinata said, "Of course I will! I mean it's our tradition.. I didn't mean to miss it Naruto.."
"But, what about Sasuke is he going to keep interfering with our plans together as friends?" Naruto questioned. Hinata looked at his sky blue eyes that were once filled with light but, he looked so different.. sad perhaps..
"Naruto, I promise Sasuke will not change our friendship at all..You just have to accept I actually have a boyfriend. Sakura has had a couple and you haven't gotten this over-protective over her and you love her." She pointed out.
"That's totally different." He stubbornly said. "how is this any different Naruto I truly don't understand what's going through your mind.." Hinata said close to tears.
"Me either, I'm confused as well but I know one thing you should dump Sasuke." He truthfully said. "I'm not going to dump him because you want me to! I like him!" She yelled.
He looked into her silver eyes and simply said, "So, is this how it's going to be now?" "What are you talking about all you have to do is accept Sasuke!" Hinata cried out. Sakura who had overheard the yelling came immediately and hoped he didn't screw things up.
"Naruto, please don't!" Sakura insisted hoping he wouldn't ruin everything. "STAY OUT OF THIS!" He yelled at Sakura. "Fine!" Sakura retorted, walking away. Hinata said, "Great, look what you did!"
"How can you be like this throwing your friends away!" He yelled back at her. "I'm not but, guess what I guess you don't need to worry about that anymore! You're not my friend anymore! I've had enough! Hinata yelled in frustration.
Naruto glared at her and said, "Well you know what I don't even want to be your friend anymore." Hinata walked away and just left Naruto and Sakura alone in the parking lot. Sakura couldn't believe what had just happened..
She just looked at him and he screamed, "WHAT!?" She sighed, "Do you have any idea what you just did?" Their friendship seemed to be gone..
"Well you know what I don't even want to be your friend!" Naruto yelled back.
Sakura just looked at him and he said, "WHAT!" She sighed, "Do you have any idea what you just did?" Naruto looked into her emerald eyes and suddenly realized what he had done.. He sat on the bleachers and groaned, "Damn it, what did i just do!"
"Exactly, my point why did you make her want to stop being friends with you?" She said. "Well, we were talking about sasuke and things just spiraled out of control. "Why are you always picking on Sasuke!? He's your best friend and as you said he hasn't cheated on hinata once since they started going out!" She said.
"I don't know, I just don't trust him." Naruto said. Sakura said, "I'm going to ask you this for the last time are you jealous? Do you want to be Hinata's boyfriend instead is that why you're so upset?" Naruto looked at her, "You think that's why I'm like this?" She looked at him and said, "Umm.. YEAHH!"
He just looked up at the sky, "I don't think so.. she's just my best friend." Sakura crossed her arms, "If that is what you really think then let her live her life. She is allowed to get a boyfriend.. but, if you think you would rather be more than just a friend you better tell her." She warned.
Naruto seemed to ignore her and gaze at the clouds. "That's it I'm going home! You figure things out I'm sick of being in the middle!" She stalked off.
Hinata walking home
The walk to her house wasn't a long one at max it took 10 minutes but, today it felt like hours.. What had she done! Tears were streaming down her face.. Flashes of memories kept playing in her mind like a slideshow.. the day they met, their first day of middle school and all their movie nights together..
She tried to wipe her tears and hoped he'd call and apologize. She finally reached home and ran to her room locked the door and planned to leave her cell on all night and prayed he'd call.
She did all her homework and chores by 6pm and had dinner still no phone ring.. she changed into her pajamas and just about to get into bed and BRINNGG BRINNG.. She prayed it'd be naruto so she didn't look at caller id and said, "Hello?"
"Hey Hinata, you didn't call me after meeting naruto after school. I was wondering if you were okay?" Sasuke asked. She sighed it was Sasuke not that she was upset he called but she wanted someone else too.. "Oh, I'm fine.. it's just naruto and I.." She couldn't bring herself to say it..
She tried to continue, "We aren't f-f-friends a-anymore." "Are you alright, sweetie? I mean you guys have been friends since forever?" Sasuke asked concerned. "I'm okay.." She lied.
"I hope this wasn't because of me stealing you the other night.." Sasuke said. "No, it's alright sasuke.. He just doesn't want me to date you that's all.. He feels left out I'm guessing but, he has sakura doesn't he?" She said.
"well, yea i guess. Sweetie, I'm sorry i have to go eat dinner talk to you tomorrow?" He said. "Sure thing, thanks sasuke bye." She closed her phone and tried to get some sleep.
DAY OF JUNIOR PROM
The junior class hallway was filled with buzz. The excitement of junior prom was obvious as many girls exchanged information on who they are taking and what kind of limo they were coming in. Everyone seemed happy and excited well besides the loud mouthed blonde who normally would be bragging like crazy he was taking Sakura Haruno to prom.
"Naruto, are you alright you seem different?" Shikamaru asked curiously. "I'm fine." He flatly said. "Shouldn't you be excited? You're taking your dream girl to prom and it's even a miracle she agreed." Shikamaru asked once more.
"Hey Naruto! You excited the day has finally come remember we're meeting at Sasuke's house 6pm." Sakura reminded. She seemed a bit happier.. Maybe since she avoided the stress with Hinata and Naruto it was too much..
"Yea, Sasuke's house i know.." He quietly said. "Naruto, you still want to go right?" She asked. "Of course I do." naruto said with no enthusiasm. Sakura felt bad for naruto but, she couldn't fix this one.. if he wanted her back he'd have to figure it out by himself.
"Well anyways I'm leaving after fourth period to get ready see you later guys!" Sakura winked and left. "Man, you're one lucky guy taking a babe like sakura to prom." Kiba commented. Sure, he had one of the hottest girls as his date and had probably the best limo ride there but, he still felt so sad.. he had just lost his best friend and might never win her back again!
6pm at Sasuke's mansion
The big hummer limo was parked in the back.. There was Hinata with her semi-short blue dress with spaghetti straps with silver high heels. Her hair was put up and slightly curled at the ends making her look fabulous. Sakura Haruno had straightened her hair and wore a long black dress that was strapless with a jewel in the middle.
As they all took pictures at Sasuke's mansion Hinata looked at Naruto seeing if he would even glance her way however he hadn't.. In the hummer limo sasuke kept holding on to her and kept her blushing the entire time. As soon as they arrived they saw a big room with tons of tables and a dance floor in the middle.
"Let's go to our table Miss." Sasuke directed to Hinata who obliged. She went with him and Sakura said, "Come on Naruto let's go!" Finally they sat down and she said, "Naruto, are you seriously regretting coming now? because you better not ruin my prom night!" she warned.
Naruto looked at Hinata laughing at sasuke's jokes from the corner of his eye. "Naruto!" she screamed. "What?" He said. "I swear sometimes you are so stupid come on let's dance." She insisted. She pulled him up and they danced to Thanks for the Memories by Fall out boy.
"Sorry, I've been so down for the last couple of days Sakura-chan." He apologized. She grinned, "That's alright, I understand." He said, "Look there's Shikamaru running away from the dancefloor with Ino pulling him back. I swear they are one odd couple." Naruto laughed.
"Yea, they quite are." She agreed. She felt relieved he was starting to act like his old self again maybe things could be alright.. As they danced the night away all seemed to go well..well so far..
Sasuke and Hinata
"So, is this everything you dreamed it would be?" Sasuke asked. He twirled her around and she smiled, "Of course it is but, let's be realistic I didn't really picture myself here with you." He rocked back and forth and he said, "But here you are having the time of your life."
The music changed to a slow song and he asked politely, "May I have this dance?" She took his hand, "Yes, you may." She put his arms around him as they went around the dance floor.. Here she was hinata hyuuga with Sasuke Uchiha falling for him so quickly.
As the song came to an end Sasuke said, "I need to ask you something." She looked into his onyx eyes and said, "What is it?" "Hinata,I really like you can you be my girlfriend?" Sasuke looked up at her with hopeful eyes.
Even after all they what had happened through the weeks with her friendship with Naruto she had truly fell for Uchiha Sasuke. He had charmed her and was sweet he cared for her and proved it time and time again.
She held his hand and smiled, "I'd love to be your girlfriend." Over by the snack table Naruto was glaring at the couple.. Seemed like things are back where they started.. The pink haired girl standing next to him asked, "Are you going to even ask me to dance?" "No." He flatly said. She groaned and just decided to dance with friends even, if she felt bad for naruto..
It was his own fault. He might have lost Hinata Hyuuga forever.. After that night everything had changed..
Sure, people might say it was the end of everything but, on the contrary it was just the beginning..
Preview for the next chapter-
Eight years later..
"Naruto, hey it's me Sakura Haruno how you been?" She asked.
"Fine, wow! I haven't spoken to you since high school what's the occasion of this call?" he asked.
"Well nothing really i was just wondering if you got an invitation to Hinata's wedding?" She asked.
"Her wedding? She's getting married?" He asked.
"Yep, in about 5 months." She added.
He was a bit afraid to ask but he tentatively said, "To whom?"
"You know of course Sasuke..Sasuke Uchiha." She said.
He couldn't believe after all these years she was still with him!
What happens when Naruto and Hinata meet unexpectedly after so long?
Naruto wasn't in a good mood at all.. He decided to get as much ramen, ice-cream, and sweets he could to let him get through this..
As he reached for the ice-cream across he saw a woman with long blue hair and silver eyes.. What! was that really hinata?
"Hinata?" He said unsure. The woman turned around and gasped, "Naruto! Is that you?"
He smiled perhaps he could put everything in the past and be her friend once more..
