Warning: this chapter is angst filled to the brim…you've been warned

Naruto was sitting at a bench with the one person he cared about most, but this bench was no ordinary bench besides it getting the best view of the sunset and the city, it also held memories he wouldn't trade for the world…he smirked at the memory of himself and Hinata trying to stop construction workers from removing the bench it wasn't going so well until his father intervened…he missed them terribly and started to think of them and what they would think of how he matured and how he finally got what they knew would happen he started to wonder why it didn't happen sooner…well he knew of course…but why he didn't realize her feelings until this point "Guess I know why I always have to study with her all the time…but its something I wouldn't change…"

He gazed at the sun as memories started to flood from before…everything started racing until all he could think about were the old days.

(Epically long flash back)

"Now Naruto this is your first day of kinder garden, and your mother and I are assigning you a mission"

"A Mission, what is it dad, whatever it is I'll ace it!" Naruto shouted with enthusiasm

"We want you to make a friend, not just any friend…a friend, who will always be there for you, promise us you'll fulfill this mission my son

Naruto smiled as big and as bright as he could and promised he would, he then soon ran off towards his first day at kinder garden, his parents walking slowly enjoying the view and watching their son run off towards school smiling and laughing the whole way.

Tsunade, a lot younger wouldn't even thought of teaching students…of course seeing how cute and innocent a child could be decided to do so…she now was somewhat regretting it…somewhat.

"Ah Minato-san how's my grandson?" She asked with a light smirk

"Running around trying to make a friend" Kushina giggled

"Ah, he's in luck Hiashi's just now enrolled his child" Tsunade smiled

"Ah, I thought I'm glad I herd his wife isn't doing so well recently"

"She isn't…but we have to pray for the best don't we?" Tsunade replied

Minato walked towards the school to let the women talk and walked in just to the door frame and saw his son sitting alone and saw Hiashi's child slowly walking, rather creeping towards him, she finally mustered up the courage to walk up to him altogether.

"H-Hi N-Naruto-k-kun" She spoke softly

"Ah…Hinata right?" He smirked

She blushed but returned his question with a nod and he offered her a seat, she quickly sat down and Naruto quickly started asking questions and she'd quietly nod or answer fully blushing to what seemed to be no end.

"Hm…I wouldn't say you found a friend my son…it seems what you found would be something more than that she seems like the person you could like…maybe love one day" at the end of his though his wife came into the classroom to witness the scene and softly giggled and weirdly enough she had stray tears in her eyes.

"I'm glad he's made a friend…that way he won't be lonely when I have to start work its hard enough when your not home often it'll be worse now but, her mother, seems to share our worry and has allowed them to spend time together until one of us arrives home dear" She turned to her husband and smiled softly.

"We also talked about marriage for the two of them" Kushina spoke casually as soon as Minato got to the door he froze in his tracks.

"Kushina Naruto and Hinata are only five and besides we have no idea how they feel about each other because they happen to be five not teenagers!" Minato spoke softly so not to cause an uproar

She smirked evilly and walked over to her husband with an evil glint in her eye and a high and mighty air around her.

"What did I tell you before?"

"Don't argue with women because women are always right" He sighed but before he protested Tsunade walked in the door with a wide grin on her face.

"You tell him yet?" She asked indicating she was talking to Kushina

"Of course, I'd think you agree they look cute together don't they?" She smiled wide

"Ah yes of course she's so shy and he's so out going I'd never think opposites would attract but today I've been sorely mistaken I approve and I'll be helping them along as much as I can" she grinned as she walked into the class room

A now ten year old Naruto was sitting next to his best friend Hinata in her room crying his eyes out, his parents he just got word of his parents death even before all of this he was over her house every day Hiashi had no problem with it seeing as he was helping her and keeping her out of trouble he'd protected her when kids of people he'd fired got angry and tried to harm her, they'd come home he'd be covered in dirt and cuts and some times it was even worse and he'd always say you should've seen the other guy! And grin like an idiot but today was different, not as different as losing his wife, that was painful, but the boy he saw as a son just lost both He couldn't help but wonder how it'd be if He'd died with his wife, would Naruto's parents look after his daughter.

"What am I thinking of course they would"

"Naruto-kun?" Hinata shifted a bit she'd been sitting on the floor for the past two hours with Naruto clinging to her she was blushing but kept control of her fainting, Naruto needed her and now wasn't the time to be a bad friend and pass out.

She shifted back a bit only for Naruto to cling to her even more he wouldn't let go, if this was any other day she'd pray this was a confession and that he liked her to the point of tears but she knew why he was crying with his family gone he'd be staying her for a bit until his grandfather came back she didn't mind in the least he was there for her when she needed it why couldn't she do the same?

"Don't…go Hinata-chan I need you don't leave me too!" He said in between sobs her blush got even worse if anything took up a good portion of her cheeks but doing the only thing she could think of put her arms around him and pulled him as close as she could and cried…she cried for him, his parents, her mother, and the love she wanted so badly she wished she'd receive from the boy she was holding at this very moment.

Naruto never was bright but he knew one thing the feelings he had for his best friend had always been there always when she started spending more time away from him and more with Kiba his world shattered when he said he needed her he literally meant he needed her and no one else to be by his side, of course he had Sasuke-teme and Sakura-chan but…the void left by his best friend couldn't be filled that easily he tried liking Sakura only for remarkable pain and insults from both parties, which only made that void grow deeper, when he was alone at home, she never stopped by like she used to, old wounds surged again and he'd cry, if almost every day "When she stopped noticing me my world died, my sunny place…left me" Even at now thirteen he knew what he needed even when his grades fell below the average he'd normally get and the teachers worried about him and asked him why he wasn't doing so well or if he had someone who could help him his response would ether be personal matters but when it came to them asking him if anyone would be able to help him he'd always tear up and run out of the room, without her he wasn't himself…without her he wasn't happy or hyper he may have acted as such from time to time…but it wasn't the same "I want to be with you…" He kept thinking as he was subconsciously dragging his feet to Hinata's home the house he'd normally always be at the house where…he'd have someone he'd at least have someone like a father he knocked on the door softly and when Hiashi came to the door he grinned finally

"Hey dad is Hinata-chan home?" Over the years he'd started calling him dad more over after the time his own father passed away was when he really started doing so he felt secure when he did so well at least better knowing he'd have someone who cared at least

"Yes she is come on in" Naruto silently complied and walked in and walked up the steps which led to the room he'd spent the most time in the lavender smell filling his nostrils was almost intoxicating he herd laughing her and…a boy? He opened the door to honestly see the most heart breaking thing ever he saw Kiba go in for it but because he opened the door she wasn't ready for it or maybe wasn't ready to turn him down but the out come was he kissed her he kissed the girl he liked if he hadn't known Hinata for as long as he did he'd be able to get over it but they'd been through too much for him to lose her when he finally broke away from her she was shocked and blushing, he finally realized why she'd blushed all the times he'd been around she liked him of course that must now be completely dead otherwise she wouldn't have kissed him she would've told him she liked him…right?

"Oh, uhm Naruto-kun h-how are you?" She was looking down and blushing heavily and playing with her index fingers, like she used to do around him…used to

Naruto was succumbed with anger but just stood there eyes showing no emotion just staring at Kiba's grin and Hinata's blushing fit he knew that could've been himself in Kiba's place…he knew he'd give anything to have her first kiss that's probably what hurt the most, but maybe what hurt the most was that he had always needed her and she knew it yet she was with this guy, even still she was allowed to do what she wanted but was it really all that hard to keep your closest friend around while you live your life?

"Naruto…are you ok?" Kiba asked as If on cue Naruto's body language changed drastically, face down eyes towards the ground shoulders slouched the exact opposite of what he'd always been happy, cheerful most of all hyperactive

"Its…nothing I'll be going now…"

"A-Are you sure you just got-"

"D-Don't worry about it Hinata-chan it's nothing I just…" Naruto spoke again in a normal yet uncharacteristic voice

She knew why his protective barrier was starting to break, he needed her even now, she knew what he meant by he'd needed her but to such an extent? The only reason she stopped talking to him was to get over her feelings because he didn't notice…but seeing this basically proved she was wrong in doing that…looking at him now maybe…he

Before she had a chance to speak he ran off out the door and back towards his house tears blurring his vision yet he was glad he couldn't see because if he could all he'd be seeing would be those two kissing…

Strangely enough Hiashi herd and saw what happened and really wasn't pleased, he knew his wife wanted her daughter to pick a man worthy of someone such as herself and to be honest he'd wanted the boy to love her and she love him, the way he acted proved he did, he got worried when she stopped talking about him and started talking about Kiba just because he worked close to his mother didn't mean he'd approve in fact after what he saw he surely didn't when the boy left and they had dinner he went on the attack.

"So why did Naruto come over, he really didn't stay long"

"Ah…he just wanted to say hi that's all"

"Are you sure because as I remember this is the first time he's been over in two years from the look in his eyes it seemed as if he needed you and when he ran out it seemed as if his heart was torn to shreds…"

Hinata gasped and had a worried look on her face as though she wanted to cry for making him cry

"I saw what happened" He spoke again

She looked up worried

"I normally wouldn't bother with who you like and who you date, but from what I've noticed all along was the son I never had liked maybe even loved you, and to be honest I think seeing what he saw destroyed his feelings for you, I'd understand you trying to get over your feelings for him if he rejected you…but you never told him, from what I could tell no matter what he would've accepted them, accepted you"

Tears fell from her face she felt horrible she never knew she always thought he'd never like her but…she was wrong horribly wrong "I just…wanted to be with you even now I still do but right now all I'm being is selfish I'm so sorry Naruto-kun…"

The next day even though they both wanted to talk they avoided each other this went on for awhile no matter how much they wanted to they couldn't speak to each other the pain grew to the point they were like on separate parts of the earth, it got worse when Hiashi changed drastically yet Naruto actually came to her ask to defend her when he saw her crying that morning, he was late for school, and got detention of course, but that was something he had to do, Kiba sure didn't do it and wouldn't but he did the physical pain he felt from being hurt from the man he used to call dad wasn't as bad as the mental pain he went through and the worst part of it he didn't have his security blanketwith him this time.

Naruto sat at the bench eyes glazed over in thought until Hinata came back with cup ramen he took it gleefully and kissed her on the cheek, if anything he'd be first in something or well more than a few things he was more than happy when they started dating things had been better than ever the pain from the past was nothing compared to how fantastic he was feeling this time, even when he befriended Sasuke's twin or well fraternal twin as Naruto assumed he died only a few months after they knew him, but because of him the friendship he thought lost came back it had been rocky but they kept in contact, even now his life was better he had the person he loved the most even when he was told by Sai that Kuro was on "an extended trip" he was alright he had his bestf- or should I say girlfriend at his side they silently walked towards the mall and met up with Sasuke, and Sakura along with Sai and Ino, Strangely enough Sasuke wasn't being distant, but all the same he never once for a second believed Kuro was on a trip and his grudge still held strong every once in a while he'd give Hinata a glare that just promised pain Naruto just asked Sai when he'd think Kuro would return when the TVs in the mall all turned blue and said we now announce a word from our new president the group stood there as a man with black hair walked towards the stage all of them gasped as it was Madara uchiha and beside him was a boy with pure whit hair and deep blue eyes.

Madara came close to the podium and spoke

"For ages we've lost people we've loved…but no longer will that happen I have created a way to bring back people who have died, the boy beside me was the first I brought back my nephews brother, I changed his name of course but he functions normally isn't that right…Kuro?

A/N this is a hint I was going to add another…but you haven't earned it so HAH….nah it'd spoil the story anyway this was the most angst filled chapter I've EVER written I didn't realize I used lines from the confession until after I wrote it and I wrote this while listening to final distance…best song to listen to while I went over it fit this chapter perfectly, I'll carry on with this story but oh your all in for a big surprise. Till next time A/E
