When Naruto returned to the hotel room, it was time to go to dinner. He had told Hinata to be ready when he returned and had given her plenty of time. Naruto entered the room and threw on some nice clothes for dinner; Hinata had made him pack them since she wanted at least one fancy dinner in her lifetime. She figured since this was all on Neji's tab, she might as well go crazy.
Naruto had made reservations for eight because he thought that there would be hardly anyone there at such a late hour. Boy was he wrong, Since this had been the fanciest restaurant in town in had been booked till midnight two years from now. This, however, made Naruto curious as to why he got to reserve it the night he came in.
"A man with long brown hair and his wife reserved a table for every hour this whole week. They paid us well and asked if they could, we agreed and they apparently gave us your names instead of theirs." The lady that showed the couple to their table explained. They looked at each other with confused yet ecstatic smiles.
The table they had reserved was near the back, sort of away in its own cove but not in its own room, so they could see others in their fancy attire as well. Naruto looked around the room, but once again Hinata had trumped all the other girls in the room. She wore a light purple dress with random gems scattered throughout. Not too many however, just the right amount that made her sparkle under the light. Her dangling diamond earrings she got as a wedding gift from Kiba and the necklace that matched Shino had given to her. She figured they probably went shopping together.
The newlyweds talked and laughed like they hadn't in a while. For the first time, Naruto felt relieved to have some free time with alone with Hinata. He understood what made him fall in love with the beautiful woman that giggled before him.
After they finished their dinner Hinata wanted some dessert, but Naruto told her that he had a surprise for her after the returned to the room from the hot spring. They paid their waiter and headed for the hot spring. They had rented it for the whole week, so they were free to go at any time, day or night as they pleased. Hinata had left some sweats their so she could change into them when they left so she wouldn't have to be in her gown.
When they arrived, the place had already closed for the night, but they had a key so it wasn't a problem. They got undressed in their separate locker rooms, wrapped a towel around themselves and headed out, Naruto was the first since he didn't have to unpin his hair, and take off all his jewelry, etc.
When she finally got to the hot spring to met with her husband he caught sight of a scar on her arm. The memories of her lying unconscious for three months in the hospital flooded his mind. He winced at the thoughts that now clouded his brain, and couldn't enjoy the Hot Springs as much as he had hoped.
Hinata could see that he was staring off in space, since he had been staring at the other side of the spring for several minutes. Instead of waking him from his trance by waving her hand in front of his face, as she would normally do, she snuggled close beside him. This woke him from his trance, but not because of their cozy position, but because her bruise rubbed against his arm. With a look of fear across his face he gave her a little space.
"What's wrong? Did I upset you? Or… is this about my scar?" She said depressingly as ran her finger down it.
"I just don't want to disturb it anymore, it might cause you pain. You wouldn't even have it if I wouldn't have sent you off by yourself."
Hinata filled the gap Naruto had made between them and placed her hand on his shoulder, "First of all, if its this scar your talking about," She pointed to it, "then you couldn't have prevented it because I got it from making breakfast this morning. I was careless and dropped the knife. It was either get this cut or have Emi cut on who knows where. Personally, I think a little scar on me then a big, potentially life threatening one on Emi and miss our vacation. I didn't want to upset neither my husband nor our child. Second, if your still worrying about what happened in the woods several months ago, don't. I'm fine, and even if you had been there it doesn't necessarily mean anything. No one knows what would have happened. Instead of lingering on the past, can't we just enjoy our present?" She sat in front of him and wrapped his arms around her. Turning a little red, Naruto placed his head on hers and kissed it.
"I still don't want anyone to hurt my wife and child. Is that so wrong, to want to always protect you, and worry about your wounds." He stroked her arm. " I mean, if I could cook more then ramen I could have made you breakfast this morning and you wouldn't have this wound. But I can understand you want our child to have what I never did, a father it knows, one that can teach it jutsu and train with. Spend quality time together and get to know each other."
"Not just our children Naruto, I want more time for us as well. More time for doing relaxing things like this, and to get to know each other more then anyone else knows of us. For the four of us to have family vacations and training, time to see our two little ones graduate from the academy and take the chunnin exams. To see them establish their own goals and follow them as we followed ours. For your daughter and son to be the trouble maker in the class," She giggled.
"Or the shy one with a crush on said trouble maker." He teased. Then his eyes grew wide, "Son? We are going to have a boy?" He exclaimed. She nodded and he threw his arms up in the air with a "WA-WHO!" he brought Hinata into a hug and folded his hands on her back. They sat face to face, a huge smile on Naruto's face and a shy timid one on Hinata's.
He opened his eyes and stared at Hinata's expression for a minute. "Wait a second, something is missing from the timid smile." Her light pink blush appeared and he chuckled, "that's better." He gave her an Eskimo kiss. However, that turned into passionate kissing and then, "So I guess this is where we pick up after our little water fall fight." Naruto teased.
She giggled and nodded, "Yeah, guess so, although this time you don't have to wait." She splashed him playfully. He splashed her back and after about a minute he grabbed her hand to stop her from splashing him again. He leaned forward, and continuing her playfulness she leaned back until they both fell into the water. After they got up they figured they'd go back to the hotel. So they got out and headed for the locker rooms. They got dressed and headed back to the hotel.
When they arrived, their room had a path of rose petals that lead to the bed, which sat in the middle of the room and was shaped like a heart. Right above the bed sat a chocolate fountain surrounded by strawberries. Naruto carried his young wife to the bed where they spent the rest of the night talking, eating chocolate covered strawberries, and enjoying each others company.
