What Do You Want, Hinata?
Rating: Teen
"Where… am I?'" The thought echoed through his mind, repeating the question dozens of times to him. He scowled as he heard the echo jump back and ask him the same question.
"I was the one who asked… Where am I exactly?" Once again his question was bounced right back at him. He all looked around him, trying to see how there could be an echo where he was.
"This place couldn't possibly make an echo… There are no hills or anything. Only grass, sunflowers, and that bright sun..." He shielded his eyes that were the same color of the sky above him. It was a high-pressure day, meaning there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Naruto's eyes finally adjusted better to the brightness as he slowly dropped his arm down to his side. No matter how much he tried to be troubled, the good weather and sun made him smile.
"It looks like a field… But why am I here again?" He mumbled out loud, looking around once more. There was a slight breeze of wind as the grass bent in a wave past Naruto. It was a few minutes after that did he hear a light voice. He turned where his back had faced as he looked toward where the voice came from. It sounded familiar, and it also sounded… soft.
"Naruto-kun!" The voice sounded carefree and happy. The voice was making him feel safe as it sounded like someone familiar. He looked over to the distance where he heard the voice and could see Hinata walking toward him. He then let down his guard and gave her a warm smile. He started waving his hand as she came closer and closer.
"Hinata!" He called as he stood there. Hinata finally reached him, and he saw she was carrying two bento boxes.
"Hinata, you brought me lunch?" Naruto said in such a surprises voice, he was taken aback.
"O-of course! I wanted to bring Naruto-kun lunch." Hinata mumbled, looking flushed. Even though she looked embarrassed, she was smiling.
"Thanks so much Hinata! You always bring me food- I should know by now." Naruto started scratching the back of his head. It was true- Hinata always brought him lunch when they go somewhere like to the park. He always thanked and her and said she didn't have to, but she always replied the same.
"But I wanted to- for Naruto-kun." Of course he could never argue with her since there wasn't anything to argue about. He just felt guilty she always spent so much effort on the lunches for him. He had always wanted to do something in return for her.
"Hinata, why don't I do something for you since you always make these lunches for me." Naruto said as he opened the box she handed to him. Inside was a beautifully made set of food. He took the chopsticks she handed him and picked up a piece of rice and ate it.
"You really don't have to, Naruto-kun…" Hinata mumbled. She was just happy she could see Naruto, and he always enjoyed the food she made.
"Really, Hinata… Is there something you want? I'll do something to thank you." He grinned at Hinata, waiting patiently for her response. Hinata was surprised when he asked her and looked at her. She turned to face forward, and tried to think.
'Naruto-kun wants to know what he can give me to thank me…' She couldn't think of what to say, what she could tell Naruto.
"Hinata?" Naruto's voice snapped her back from her thinking as she looked to see his face yearning for an answer.
"Naruto-kun…" She whispered. There was only one thing Hinata could think of, but she didn't dare say it out loud- or even tell Naruto. She could feel her heart starting to beat loudly in her ribcage.
"So, what is it Hinata? You can tell me!" Naruto smiled, encouraging Hinata. She gave a smile, but declined to say it.
"Nothing, Naruto-kun. Honestly, you don't have to get me anything. I'm happy right now- being with you." She smiled, making Naruto melt a little.
"R-really?" He asked, but he knew the answer.
"Of course." She assured, still smiling. Naruto gave a large grin and they went on eating the bento she made.
The day started turning lazy as the both finished what Hinata made. Naruto and Hinata had laid on their backs as they looked up into the clear blue sky. They were talking for a while, but soon they stopped, and Naruto continued looking at the small clouds that were in the sky, becoming very tired. Hinata remained silent, which made Naruto look over to her.
"Oi Hina-" He started to say sleepily as he sat up and turned to her, but then he stopped moving as his mouth remained in the middle of her name. Hinata was laying there with her eyes closed, having fallen asleep. Her lips were slightly parted as he stared at her soft expression. He stared at her sleeping figure.
'Hinata… You have to want something I can give you!' He pouted as he thought of it. He then said it out loud, although not loud enough to wake her up. He knew he probably wouldn't get an answer to her, but then h saw Hinata move. He looked at her face as he saw her lips move. No audible voice came out of her mouth, and it didn't look like she had said anything. What made Naruto look closely at her lips was that it looked like she slightly puckered them.
"Hinata…?" He murmured in surprise.
'Does she want… a kiss?' The thought unexpectedly popped in his mind. A blush formed on his face and his droopy eyes widened when the thought started echoing in his ears. He looked back down to where Hinata was laying, her hands on her moving stomach.
"Hinata…" He mumbled as he moved his face closer to hers. "Do you want…?" He didn't finish his question as his face was now an inch away from Hinata's calm face. Their lips were less than a inch away as he closed his eyes.
Why was everything so dark, black? Naruto looked all around, and found himself in the field once more. Of course there was a major difference than before- it was dark. He looked up into the sky. It was a dark blue with hundreds of stars shining. The single moon
was radiating yellow. Dark blue- that was close to Hinata's hair. Naruto's eyes widened as he sharply turned around and looked in the field.
"Where's Hinata?" He said out loud, concerned. He looked down as he tried to regain his memory before he found himself here at night.
"Ano… Hinata and I were eating bento she made, and then after laying around, I found her asleep. I then was about to go kiss her when I closed my eyes… and I don't remember anything else.
Suddenly, Naruto jumped as a flash of lightning struck down in the distance, and thunder boomed out. There was a gust of wind as Naruto almost fell down in the grass.
"Hinata-Hinata!" He realized when she wasn't there. He called her name out into the wind as the storm went on. He didn't hear a response back.
"Wha… Naruto-kun!" He heard a soft voice being carried in the wind. He recognized the voice immediately.
"Hinata!" He called into the wind again. He stretched his arm in the wind as he looked around. He could hear another voice, but he could not understand the words or who it was. Naruto fell to the grass as he blacked out once again.
"Naruto-kun! Are you okay?" Hinata shook Naruto's shoulder. She could hear him muttering something- her name. She kept shaking, getting worried. She didn't see what happened, she had dozed off. She was peacefully sleeping, dreaming. She felt a weight suddenly come over her, almost like a child had fell asleep on her. When she heard a loud noise that woke her up. The weight had disappeared, and she opened her eyes as she saw the clear blue sky.
She had sat up where she was sleeping and noticed to her right Naruto also sleeping. She gave a small smile as his face seemed so peaceful. His face then changed to look troubled as he mumbled her name.
"What… Naruto-kun!" She started shaking him on his shoulder. She kept gently shaking him, seeing it wasn't working.
"Hinata!" He said slightly louder, sounding worried.
"Naruto-kun, I'm right here!" Hinata leaned over Naruto as she began shaking both of his shoulders.
"Wha… Hinata…?" The dark field disappeared, and everything went dark. He could feel himself being shaken, making him slowly open his eyes. As he could see clearly, he saw Hinata's worried face hovering above him. She saw him starting to wake up, and stopped shaking his shoulders.
"Naruto-kun! I'm so glad!" Hinata smiled in a exasperated voice. "you kept mumbling in your sleep, I was worried." She sat straight up from Naruto.
"Sorry Hinata! I must've fell asleep." Naruto apologized. He looked out towards where the houses of Konoha stood, and noticed the sun getting near the horizon. "It's getting late. We should get going back to Konoha." He sat up straight. Hinata nodded, and stood up. As Naruto stood up, she picked up the bento boxes. They started walking to Konoha when Naruto looked at Hinata.
"Hinata, did I wake you up? I'm sorry." He said.
"Well, I remember I was sleeping, and I felt something heavy on me, and it lifted off when I heard you. I sat up and you started mumbling in your sleep… You were saying my name." Hinata explained, looking a little confused at Naruto. Unfortunately all Naruto was thinking was kicking himself.
'Dammit, I must've fell asleep ON TOP of Hinata! Then I must have moved off like I usually do when I sleep. If I tell her I was the one sleeping on her, she's probably going to get really mad! She'll get even angrier if I tell her I kissed her! Dammit…" Naruto felt like hitting himself. Naruto stopped walking, making Hinata do the same and have her look at him confused.
"I… I'm sorry Hinata! I think it was me. I had fallen asleep on you." He confessed. He hoped Hinata wouldn't get angry, or ask how he had fallen asleep on her.
"But… How did you fall asleep on me?" Naruto died inside. She asked the question. He glanced at her to see any signs of annoyance. He only answered when he only saw curiosity and confusion in her face.
"I… wanted… to… kiss… you…" He tried to say as quiet as he could, but Hinata still heard him. He lowered his head as to not see her hurt expression or see her get angry. He heard only silence, making him nervous. He glanced up to be ready for punishment, but saw Hinata just standing there. Not only was she only standing there and not punching him, he saw- a smile. He looked up in astonishment as she only smiled.
"Thank-you Naruto-kun."
Hope you enjoyed! I tried more of Naruto's point of view since I like doing more of Hinata's view. Rate, comment, and all the good stuff!
