Hinata

"Today is the day" said Hinata to herself as she walked down the street looking for Naruto. "Today I will tell him that I love him."

"Hinata" yelled her teammate Kiba as he and her other teammate Shino walked up to her.

"Oh hello" said Hinata as she looked around for Naruto "Have you two seen Naruto-kun"

"No I haven't seen him in a couple of days" answered Kiba as Shino shook his head.

"Oh, ok" said Hinata

"Cheer up" said Kiba "How about all three of us go out for lunch."

"Fine" said Shino

"Ok" sighed Hinata she did want to see Naruto but she didn't eat anything this morning.

"Great where do you want to go?" asked Kiba as Shino shrugged his shoulders.

"How about ramen?" said Hinata hopping that Naruto would be at his favorite ramen stand. Kiba just rolled his eyes.

"Fine" said Kiba as Hinata lead them to the stand, only to find no Naruto. They just sat there eating.

"So Shino how was your mission?" asked Hinata

"Good" said Shino as Ino came walking in.

"Hay Ino, what are you doing here?" asked Kiba

"Oh, I just came to grab some food for Choji and I." said Ino

"I see" said Shino

"Ino have you seen Naruto?" pleaded Hinata

"Yah" answered Ino "Last I saw he was taking a nap under a tree next to his old training ground." In an instant Hinata was gone. "Why is she in such a rush?"

"Well she is going to tell Naruto that she likes him." Said Kiba as a look of dread came over Ino's face.

"I thought she gave up on him?" said Ino

"No" grumbled Kiba

"Then she will need you." Said Ino

"Why?"

Hinata jumped from rooftop to rooftop trying to get to the old team seven training grounds as fast as possible. Finally she reached the open area. "Where are you Naruto-kun?" asked Hinata as she scanned the tree line. Suddenly she spotted Naruto's feet she couldn't see the rest of Naruto because of the way he was laying under the tree. Hinata jumped to the grass in front of him.

"No" cried Hinata tears filled her eyes. There was the man she loved asleep with a pinked hair woman's head resting on his chest. Her heart was breaking into a thousand little pieces as she watched Naruto and Sakura move closer together.

"Hinata-chan" said Kiba as he appeared next to his female teammate.

"Why?" asked Hinata "Why did I wait so long?"

"I ask myself the same question." Said Kiba as Hinata looked at him "Why did I wait so long to tell you that I love you Hinata"

"What?" asked Hinata as her eyes widened.

"I love you Hinata, I have since we where first put on a team but I never had the courage to tell you." Said Kiba "come on lets leave these two in peace."

"Ok" said Hinata as she and Kiba left Naruto and Sakura in peace.

I put this story up because I believe you can't tell a good Naruto/Sakura story without telling what happened to Hinata. Also this let me put some of the other people in the story.
