Chapter 2
Hinata blinked, getting the black spots that were swimming in front of her eyes to slowly disappear, she felt really comfortable and warm she could feel movement in the small of her back and hear and feel breathing on her neck, she moved her head to the side to see who it was and then jumped up in shock after noticing it was Naruto, he had fallen asleep while waiting for Hinata to come awake she turned around to face him and carefully started shaking him
"Naruto-kun" she said quietly he started to stir and she let go of him.
"eh Hinata when did you wake up?"
"Just now" she said quietly.
"oh" he said in reply.
"that's good" "Naruto-kun where are the others?"
"They went to see Tsunade no baa chan and Sakura and Sasuke went home"
"oh" she replied looking at the ground blushing she, she was hardly ever alone with Naruto and he hardly ever talked with her, as she thought this she blushed deeply and started swaying on the spot.
"oi, Hinata are you alright" Naruto said jumping up to support her, she froze as she felt his arms close in around her body.
"I think maybe we should get you home" he said
"hai" Hinata replied weakly
They were nearing the Hyuuga compound Hinata was on Naruto's back she had feinted again from being in such close proximity to Naruto and talking to him, Naruto had a small smile on his face he felt her arms tighten around his neck as she whispered his name a small blush came to his face and he continued walking. Neiji was walking back from the other direction with tenten beside him, Naruto stopped to watch them he didn't want Neiji to think that he had done something to Hinata he watched as Neiji was saying good bye to tenten and she was blushing furiously he leaned in and kissed her on the cheek.
Hinata who had recently woken saw this and feinted again.
Naruto walked around the corner talking loudly as if to Hinata though she was still unconscious on his back Neiji and tenten darted apart quickly as not to look conspicuous Neiji glared at Naruto who pretended not to notice and continued walking nearly being suffocated by the unconscious Hinata, he walked inside the compound and headed to Hinata's room to put her in her bed he managed to get in and sit down on her bed but she wouldn't let go he sat her down and then lay down beside her gently removing her arms from around his neck which is easier said then done in this case.
He sat up and walked towards the door blushing, he looked back and walked back over gently as not to wake her (even though she probably wouldn't) he opened her jacket and put took it of putting it on a chair he also removed her boots and put her under the covers he leaned down on impulse because she looked so cute and kissed her forehead, just as he was doing that Hinata's father leader of the Hyuuga clan walked in quietly Naruto didn't notice till he stood up and turned once again towards the door, his smile froze as he noticed who was standing there with a look of thunder on his face, he motioned for Naruto to follow him outside Naruto complied with a horrified look in his eyes what was Hinata's father going to do to him,
Hinata's father stared down at Naruto in silence while Naruto was looking around the room anxiously waiting for whatever it was that was about to happen to happen.
"Naruto" the words startled Naruto and he glanced up at the Hyuuga,
"what happened between you and my daughter today?"
"well sir" Naruto half muttered half mumbled
"SPEAK UP BOY" Naruto took a few steps back and continued
"I was at itchiraku's with Sakura-chan and Sasuke" at the mention of Sasuke's name his face darkened even more.
"and we walked outside. . ." as Naruto repeated the story of what happened excluding the part about Neiji and Tenten Hinata's father lightened up,
" thank you for bringing her home Naruto-kun" he said
"but what I want to know is why you were kissing her when I walked in to check on her" at this Naruto looked away and blushed a deep red
" eh you saw that" he stated
" well I guess its because because. . . bec…. Well I think I like her" he said blushing even more" there was a gasp from outside followed by a loud thump, Naruto and Hinata's father rushed to the door and saw a motionless Hinata lying spread eagle on the floor deck,
" I uh guess she herd me" Naruto concluded lamely walking towards Hinata's prone body, he had sort of figured out what all this feinting was about because it only seemed to happen around him Hinata's father smiled lamely and placed a hand on Naruto's back,
"take her back to her room please and if you can stay there till she wakes up then come and get me, I want to have a talk to you both"
About 30 minutes later Hinata was coming conscious for the forth time that afternoon she looked around her room and then froze as she saw Naruto sitting on a chair looking out the window is what she herd true did Naruto like her, she blushed and tried to hide it but Naruto turned to look at her with the same blush on his face.
"Hinata, your father wants to talk to us he told me to get us to go to him when you had woken up" she nodded unable to find words she got up and walked over to where Naruto was sitting
"arigato Naruto-kun she said" he blushed and turned around to meet her gaze they stood there looking at each other for a while Naruto raised himself of the seat and moved closer to her, still looking at her, he reached out a hand and put it on her shoulder she stiffened slightly at the touch but relaxed and looked down blushing a shade of crimson that wouldn't even be considered possible in normal circumstances, he reached out with his other hand and placed it under her chin
"naru Naruto-kun" she said before his lips met hers they stood that way for while before moving into close contact and starting a minor war in each others mouth this is the happiest they had ever been, he broke of smiling and blushing and Hinata almost feinted again, her eyes were still closed she opened them slowly to see 2 blue orbs looking at her in a way she had never seen before he was smiling but he was also a beetroot colour she smiled shyly back at him,
"uhm" he stuttered
" we should get going now" he slowly moved away and was shocked at a sudden push from behind him he turned around and Hinata lunged at him he didn't try and dodge her he grabbed her and they fell to the bed with Hinata on top of him hugging him so tight he thought he was going to pop, he smiled up at her and she let go and stood up looking at the ground and blushing,
(there's that word again man cant we get to the lemon already)
he stood up and took a hold of her hand she gripped it back and started to walk to wards the door which opened for then as Neiji walked in, he was apparently surprised to see Naruto standing there and Hinata holding Naruto's hand even more he was startled that she wasn't abruptly falling to the floor,
"Hinata-sama I was coming to see if you were ok" he had spent some more time outside with Tenten before he had come inside and gone to his room.
"Hai Neiji-kun I'm good" she blushed more and gripped Naruto's hand harder he seemed not to mind.
" were just going to see Hinata's father" he said.
"oh Neiji looked puzzled raising one eyebrow with a smile.
"well I wont hold you up then" he was a bit sad because he new what was about to happen Hinata's father hated Naruto for what he represented the Kyuubi nine tailed fox that was sealed inside him.
Hinata walked slowly beside but slightly behind Naruto as they headed to the main room where Hinata's father was waiting she let go of his hand as he opened the door with a sad look in her eyes it seemed like she knew what was about to happen as well. Naruto was oblivious to all the tension and grinning like a maniac if anyone other then Hinata's father had seen it they wouldn't have been able to help smiling.
Her father looked over towards Hinata and motioned for them both to sit down they did this and he noticed how close they sat together perhaps this had gotten further along then he had realized, there was a table separating them from him and he didn't see Naruto's hand creep over and grab Hinata's though she did notice the blush come up on her face he let a small smile escape his lips before locking them down. He was happy for her he knew all that she had gone through while liking Naruto and he wasn't going to stand in the way of that happiness
"well maybe only a little bit." he thought
Hinata was looking at the floor as her father spoke
"Naruto" she looked up at his name and saw him looking towards her father
"I would like you to leave and never come back I don't want to hear about you seeing my daughter ever again unless on a mission or on direct orders from Tsunade sama understood" Naruto stood up in anger how could he do this to him after what had just happened Hinata looked like she was about to cry but got up and bowed
"hai" she said he was shocked at how easily she had complied Naruto feeling hurt and betrayed nodded once towards Hinata's father before stalking out of the room and going to see Tsunade no baa chan.
He was standing in her office face like a thunder cloud as she walked in Baa-chan I would like to request a 4 man mission out of Konoha with me and Hinata you can choose the other team members whoever, Tsunade tho angry at him calling her a old woman Smiled fondly at the angry blond haired boy before thinking about what he had said this was an unusual request for Naruto,
"why" she looked at him questioningly he blushed at this and looked at the floor while holding his hands behind his back he looked up with sudden hope in his eyes and told her the truth of what had happened she smiled at seeing Hinata's fathers actions he had changed allot since the first jounin exams and she knew he just wanted to make sure that Naruto wasn't going to hurt her.
"Shizune" Tsunade called out her and tonton walked into the room
"hai Tsunade-sama" "
I would like you to get Hinata over here and Neiji please", Naruto looked at her hopefully she still hadn't told her his answer
"While they are here Naruto I would like you to wait outside", he walked outside and waited for Hinata and Neiji to arrive they did shortly they went in and Neiji soon walked out silent as always "neh neh Neiji" Naruto said
"whats happening with you and tenten" Neiji blushed and looked at Naruto
"whats happening between you and my cousin" both males stood there blushing Neiji sat down next to him, and started to say something but stopped when Hinata walked out blushing furiously, she sat down and Tsuande called for Neiji to come in Naruto and Hinata sat there in silence not knowing what to do with eachother Naruto finally made the move so did we get a mission he asked hopefully she blushed and nodded slowly
"alright" Naruto shouted jumping into the air he grabbed Hinata's hands and swept her of the chair he was doing a small dance, Neiji walked out and had a frown on his face with a tint of what was left of a blush man Tsunade must be laying it on thick Naruto thought he knew it was his turn he walked into the office leaving Hinata and Neiji to talk amongst themselves about the mission,
"ok, you have a mission it's a two week mission there and back one week to get there one week to get back, apparently there is some sort of bandit camp attacking this village it is an b rank mission and you will be taking Neiji and Hinata with you"
Naruto smiled and was about to say something when Tsunade appeared in from of him and glared at him.
"but if I hear you and Hinata got up to anything anything at all" at these words Naruto started staring at her wide eyed and blushing.
"I will make sure you never ever get another mission with her you understand this mission starts tomorrow I will kakashi Shikamaru to accompany you seeing as he is heading that way to see Temari soon".
Naruto lept for joy and ran out of the room he and Hinata would be able to talk and make plans about everthing for the two weeks plus they had alone together when he got out of the room Hinata and Neiji were already gone this made him slightly sad but he just walked back to his place to get ready.
