AN: Yay for the third chapter! Well, enjoy and don't forget to review!
From Jpanda: This one has also been redone, again, I'm not rewriting, just...reformating in a way...
Pearl eyes slowly opened to a bright white room
Pearl eyes slowly opened to the blindingly white room. Hinata squinted and turned to her side, letting her eyes adjust. Looking around she quickly recognized the room as one of the many white walled rooms of the Konoha hospital.
Her eyes roamed around the room, taking in the white curtains and the large picture window beyond them. The heiress didn't know how much time had passed while she was asleep, but she was positive that it was at least the next day.
She moved to sit up but stopped as pain surged through her head. A small groan escaped her mouth as she rolled over onto her back.
"I see her royal majesty is finally awake." Hinata shot up hearing his voice, wincing at the intense pain. Her eyes locked on the boy at the end of her bed. There stood the one person she least wanted to see.
He gave her a smug look, his blue eyes shining. He had removed his jacket, leaving him with only his bright orange shirt. "And here I was thinking that sleeping beauty would never wake up." His voice was filled with sarcasm and what Hinata was sure would be, if described in words, I-am-better-than-you-so-you-might-as-well-just-bow-down-to-me.
His mouth formed a bigger smirk as he tilted his head to the side. His eyes roamed over her, taking in her current condition. Just as she felt a small blush coming, the door opened to show none other than the Hokage.
"Tsunade-sama." Hinata dipped her head respectfully as the Hokage made her way to the bed. Her kind smile and graceful movements made the ANBU relax back onto her pillows before remembering the unwanted guest at the end of the bed, and stiffening again.
The Hokage simply looked at Naruto's smug face and Hinata's stiff composure before speaking. "Hinata, it's good to see you're finally awake. I was very surprised when I saw Naruto here carrying you into the hospital."
At that Hinata looked over at Naruto who was no longer smiling smugly at her, but grinning happily at the Hokage. A faint blush spread over her porcelain cheeks as she realized that she had been carried back. And by that stupid boy no less.
"Although I wasn't expecting you back Naruto, you have very good timing. I have a mission that I would like you to do for me." Tsunade's blonde hair moved across her back as she swiftly turned towards the boy, a smile gracing her features.
Naruto's eyes slid in her direction as he gave her a tired and bored look. Seeing her smiling face, he head dropped, his hair covering his eyes from sight. "But Baa-chan…I don't wanna." The blonde whined, looking pleadingly into her eyes.
Hinata noticed the twitch that came when he called her baa-chan, and glared at the disrespectful boy. The Hokage however, acted as though she didn't notice and continued to smile.
"Haven't I done enough? I mean, I did bring back this spoiled little princess didn't I? Not to mention she weighted a ton." Naruto turned back to Hinata as he spoke, smiling at the fact that he was embarrassing her in front of the Hokage.
Her lavender eyes narrowed as she stared at the boy, rage running through her small body. He annoyed her so easily that it, well, it annoyed her.
"Can't I have a tiny little break? I just got back too." Naruto's pleaded, giving the blonde woman a small smile. Seeing no reaction, he switched to giving her the puppy dog eyes.
"Naruto, that's not going to work on me," Tsunade answered smoothly, her smile never faltering. "I want you and Hinata to go on a mission together as soon as she recovers."
Both teens gasped and looked at her in shock. Hinata had jumped out of the bed at the news but, unlike Naruto, had restrained herself from invading the Hokage's personal space. "But I don't want to go a mission with this idiot."
Hinata's calm statement was barely heard over Naruto's loud objection. "No way am I going on a mission with this spoiled brat!" Both teens turned their glares to the other.
Clearing her thought the Tsunade managed to gain their attention again before speaking. "No buts, you're both going and that's final. Hinata I see you're feeling better. So, both of you come to my office in about two hours and I'll give you the full details of your mission." With that, she left the room leaving them to themselves.
Making sure the Hokage was gone, Hinata spun to Naruto. "This is all your fault. Why are you here anyways? Shouldn't you be in some cave somewhere?" Hinata's cheeks puffed out in a very childish manner as she prodded Naruto's broad chest with her finger.
"My fault? You're the one who fainted in the forest, forcing me to carry you all the way back. And for you information, I'm only here because Baa-chan asked me to stay until she came back. Why else would I be here?" Naruto removed the offensive finger and peered down at the smaller girl.
"You didn't have to carry me back you know! I would have been just fine. And maybe you were here because you're a sick and twisted selfish bastard who just wanted to rub it in my face." Hinata yelled, her face turning red as her anger grew. She had never acted like this before and just that made her even more mad.
"Please, you would have died if I didn't bring you back! You're just a self-righteous, self-absorbed, arrogant, snotty, heiress who thinks she's better than everyone else!" Naruto was sure he could be heard three floors away but he didn't care. This girl made him so mad, annoyed, and confused at the same time that it was driving him insane.
Hinata visibly shook with anger as she stared up at him. "I would have rather died than be saved by you. You're just a stupid, arrogant, loudmouth, wanna-be pretty boy who can't even function properly in a normal and sophisticated society!"
A screaming match ensued leaving both out of breath and insults, ending with them just glaring in silence. Neither wanted to back down first, but both pairs of eyes snapped to the door sensing a presence.
A small boy stood there, staring tentatively around the hospital door. His Hyuuga eyes shone up at the two as he stepped more into the room, bowing deeply to Hinata.
"I'm sorry, but could you tell my father that I have an important mission to attend to and that I won't be able to talk to anyone today? It would be very helpful if you could relay that message for me." Hinata spoke, already knowing the boys reasons for being there.
He sent a quick glance to the blonde standing silently behind the heiress before nodding and leaving the room. Hinata sighed as she gathered her things and began to leave as well.
"Is that really ok? It sounded important." The smooth voice caused Hinata to stop just a few steps short of the door. "You know," Naruto continued, his voice in a more happy and up beat tone. "I could always tell Baa-chan that you're too busy to accompany me on the mission and I could always go alone."
"As much as I hate to say it, I would rather spend time with you than with the elders and my father." Hinata didn't have to turn around to see the smirk that was displayed on the Uzumaki's face. She could practically hear his lips bend into that smug smile.
"Is that so? Well, Miss Hyuuga, it would seem that you don't hate me as much as you let on. I'll take that as a compliment." Naruto didn't bother to turn around and face her, knowing she wasn't looking at him. But that didn't stop him from adding that playful tone he knew irritated her.
Hinata rolled her eyes at his childish behavior. "Well don't, because it's not, Mister Uzumaki. And I do hate you, so undeniably much."
"Hmm. Same here, princess, same here." Both gave a small smirk before leaving the room.
Both shinobi's minds wandered over thoughts of what their mission would be like and both held content smiles on their faces.
But there was one thing that they were in agreement on, this mission was definitely going to be interesting.
