Sorry for long wait

Together

I ran as fast as I could to the room I last remembered Naruto to be in. he was there.

I almost cried out for him because finally he was awake and I could see him, but something hit me. All this time that had passed I had been with Sasuke…not here at the hospital with Naruto. Naruto pale body only laid motionless and I could see my eyes starting to tear up. I couldn't take that. Not anymore. Not every again would I hurt Naruto ever.

I thought about the night we were both hit.

Why was it that I had to be the one that walked away and Naruto ended up in so much pain? Was Karma getting me back for me sleeping with Sasuke by trying to take Naruto away from me?

I only shook the thought out of my mind and walked towards the front desk asking to see Naruto Uzumaki. He had been removed from ICU to the fifth floor. I pushed the elevator button and waited for the elevator. When the elevator doors opened I quickly pushed the 'closed door' button not caring for anybody who wanted to get on. The soft playing music in the elevator and the slowness of the ride seem to take forever in that moment I could feel that my breathing had quicken and I was exhausted. When the doors opened I started to run down the hall that lady instructed me to go down. I could feel my heart racing and I didn't know if it was because of adrenaline, excitement of seeing Naruto or because I had been running so much and I was tired. I ran pass a nurse station and I could hear her telling me to stop running. The halls seemed to take forever and looked as if they were extending the more I ran and it reminded me of the dream of Naruto moving further and further away. I halted as I person was being wheeled out of their room. I apologized for scaring them and looked around for room 552. It was a room down.

I walked, silently thinking of what I would even say to him. How was I supposed to greet him? But before I could even grasp any idea I was in the room and he faced me. Our eyes connected and I could feel every emotion I've ever felt for him come back. The tears started to form in my eyes and I could feel them fall. I don't know why I hadn't spoken or went up and trapped him in my arms and smothered him with kisses. But I couldn't. My feet were frozen on the light green tile for. I just wanted to enjoy the moment of our silence encounter. Even though our words weren't out loud his eyes were speaking to me, but I didn't understand what he was trying to tell me.

Naruto.

His name wouldn't escape my lips. I wanted to cherish it, that I would be able to say it so many times before and now some many times…in the future. I wiped away the tears that had started to dry on my face. I blinked and only more fell. Naruto started to blink repeated and I was getting ready to ask what was wrong but he looked up at me and gave me a half hearted smile.

"Hi, Hinata," he said raising his hand and moving it slightly to the left to show it was a wave. The words had ended it for me. I ran up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck and started to cry.

"Oh Naruto I'm so happy you're okay…I'm sorry I'll never do anything to hurt you again…I'm so happy you're okay…"

My rambling came to a halt because I just wanted to feel him and touch him and smell his scent. I kept my arms wrapped around his waist and his arms lay on my back. I cried in his chest but he didn't complain. I inhaled his scent that had an odor to it, but I didn't care because Naruto was alright and I was right beside him no matter what would happen.

After some time went by I only looked up Naruto who looked up at me with confusion in his eyes.

"What?" I ask not releasing my grip.

"Do I know you?" he said curious.

And only released my grip and took a step back to reanalyze the situation. Was he trying to be funny or was he serious?

"So…we…" it was the same doctor that was at the hospital when I woke up after the accident.

"Hinata, you're here," she said surprised.

I only stared at her.

"I'm sure you've found out that Naruto has amnesia," her words brought me aback. He couldn't remember…me.

"W-What do y-you mean?" I asked as the tears started overwhelming my eyes.

"It's probably a minor case because some of his childhood memories have come back, but he doesn't remember from about age 10 until now."

"But he remembered my name," I was still confused Naruto and I hadn't met until age 12. She looked over me and looked at Naruto.

His expression showed confusion, aggravation, and frustration.

"I don't know. Looking into her eyes the name just clicked and I felt something, but…" he stopped looking up at the doctor lady and then at me. He eyes were sympatric and I wanted him to know I didn't blame him.

"It's okay," I said, sadly even though I hoped he believed my words.

"Hinata, you're going to have to be patient with Naruto because he will get frustrated when sketchy memories come and he might not know how to handle it. Help him through when he remembers stuff and make sure to ease him back into society. Some memories might come freely and others might take some triggering, but don't over stress him or dump any drama in his lap, because some memories might be harder to remember because his subconscious doesn't want him to. "

And the words hit me aback. Was she addressing that toward me in particular? I wasn't really sure but I looked over to Naruto who was looking up at the ceiling.

"But anyway, Naruto, this is your 'friend' Hinata." It hurt to here have to introduce me as his 'friend' when I knew I was so much more. And how was I suppose to tell him about the baby being his? Or was he just suppose to remember on his own?

Words were coming natural to me right now and I had no idea what to say.

"Hinata?" the voice surprised I looked over at the door and Sasuke stood at the door. He looked around to see the tension in the room increase tenfold by his presence.

"Is…everything okay?" he said slowly.

"Naruto has amnesia," I say sadly.

But what if that's not so much of bad thing. Naruto and I could start all over as if nothing happened and we start a whole new life as a family.

Together.

Forever.
