Chapter 3
Naruto was holding Hinata in his arms as he was running over the rooftop trying to get back to their home. Obviously with it raining, it was hard to keep the outside event going but he couldn't wait to show her what he planned next. It had only taken 10 minutes, until they were at the doorstep of their home. Naruto had set Hinata down so that she could be the first to open the door.
As the two had enter the house, it was very dark and hard to see. Hinata kicked off her sandals first and walked into the halls of their home. She was shivering like crazy. Her clothes were soaked and sticking to her. They were making her a little uncomfortable. As she got to the door that led to the living room, she opening it…stopping in shock.
In dark living room, candles had been placed everywhere. Some were on the floor, others were placed on the coffee table. A few of them we on the counters and even a few were on the dining room table. Hinata walked into the room slowly, taking everything. The illuminating flames from the candles were making the room glow with such a soft shine.
As she was walking in, she felt something soft underneath her feet. Looking down, there were purple rose petal scatted everywhere on the floor. 'Oh my…Naruto, did he really?' She looked around the room. It was so simple, but yet it was beautiful. It was almost putting tears to her eyes. She turned around to see Naruto leaning against the doorway watching her.
"…Oh Naruto…this is so…" she couldn't even explain how much this was touching her heart. Naruto could see the tear starting to form in her eyes, she looked like she was about to cry. He moved over from the door and walked over to her. Hinata ran into Naruto as he came towards her, giving him a hug. Her face was in his chest.
"How were you able to do it, I was in the house all day?" Naruto laughed. "When I came back in to get us some jacket, I had a shadow clone set it up." Hinata moved her face from his chest. "You didn't…have to…" Naruto looked at her while caressing her wet hair. "But I wanted too. Hinata, you mean so much to me…sometime I feel like I don't ever show you enough, you know?"
Why was he so perfect? "Thank you so much. I love it." Naruto kissed her forehead. More than anything he loved to see her happy. "Thank you for letting me be the one to do it for." Hinata rubbed her face in his chest. She didn't want him to see how red it was. Naruto continued to rub the back of her head, almost forgetting about the wet clothes they were both in. "Let go change so you don't catch a cold."
The two had both went upstairs and changed. Hinata undressed herself, slipping out of her skirt and shirt. Naruto was looking at her from the corner of his eyes and could see her smooth curvy body as she was slipping herself out of her clothes.' Her body is so beautiful...' It was teasing him. He looked away...it was the only way to stop himself from taking her right now.
Hinata could feel her undergarments were soaked too, so she went to grab a new pair along with a shirt and some shorts, before going into the bathroom to change. While she was changing, Naruto had taken off his wet clothes too. Changing into a white t-shirt and some grey sweats. Once he was done, he went downstairs and sat on the couch. He wanted to give Hinata time to change before she came down.
It didn't take long for Naruto to hear the cracking of the stairs as Hinata was walking down them. He was leaning back on the couch, trying calm his intense need for her. It was hard to not just take her and make sweet love to her, but he had to wait. Needed to wait. But it so was so hard when every little thing she did was teasing him to his core. Naruto sighed to himself. It was the only way to keep himself sane. He was so lost in thought at he didn't feel Hinata sit down right next to him.
Hinata had moved herself closer to Naruto until her head was resting on his shoulder. Naruto lend his head on hers, closing his eyes as he was taking in her warmth. Hinata was looking out the window as it was still raining. This had been such a good day, and it was all thanks to Naruto. She wanted to show him how much she loved this, but it would be hard to tell him. Words wouldn't be enough. When she looked away from the window, something on the glowing coffee table had caught her eyes. Besides the lightening of the candles, Hinata could see a pretty purple rose laying there. She moved herself so that she could reach over and grab it.
"A lavender rose…" Naruto opened his eyes at the sound of her voice. He could see her smiling to herself as she smelled the rose. "Do you know what the meaning of this rose is?" Hinata looked over at him as she ask. He just shook his head as she smiled at him. "It's use to express ones romantic feelings and intentions." Hinata turned her head more towards Naruto. "Do you have some special intentions with me, Naruto?" He stared at her a little. He did have special intentions in mind, but he didn't want to say anything to revealing them. He moved Hinata legs, so that they were laying across his lap. He grazed his hand between her them. "Who knows?"
'He's teasing me again…' Hinata had a light blush on her face. "Naruto…" He pecked her on the lips. "Hinata…can I tell you something?" She just nodded her head. Naruto chuckled at her blushing face. "You mean the world to me. You have always love me and I want to be able to show you that all that time you wanted for me, really means something to me, you know? I know I might have went a little overboard today, but I did it so I could see you happy."
Hinata moved her hand up, caressing Naruto's cheek. She ran her thumbs over her favorite whisker marks. "I loved everything you did today, it made me feel really special. Thank you so much. But don't forget, Naruto…that this is our day. I want you to feel as happy as I've been all evening. You mean the absolute world to me. I love you no matter what you do." She kissed his cheek.
Naruto smiled at her. "Let say I have something I want to give you, will you accept?" Hinata looked confused. 'Why would he ask that?' "Of course I would." Naruto moves his hands under her legs so that he could reach inside his pocket. He found the box and pulled it out. Hinata eyes widen. It was a small black box that was no bigger then her hand. "Open it" He whispered. Hinata moved her hands over the box. She was little nervous. This man had done so much for her today, and it just kept adding on. She moved her fingertip over the top until she got to the edge of it, slowly opening it.
Naruto couldn't see her face. Her bangs were blocking her eyes. He wanted to see her. "Hina…" Hinata looked up from the box and her eyes were filled of tear. "Naruto…you…" Inside the box, was a necklace. The charms was shaped like the moon. Color, texture and all. But what had made her cry were the two little figures in the middle of the moon. It was her and Naruto. It was night they had their first kiss. It was one of her favorite moments, because that was when the two had become one.
"Do you like it?" Like it? She loved it. She slowly grabbed it from the box. Looking at the charm more in detail. She ran her fingers over it, smiling lightly to herself. "Help me put it on?" Naruto nodded. He grabbed the necklace as Hinata moved her hair for him to click it around her neck. He trace his hands from the back of her neck, all the way to the middle of the necklace where the charm was. He looked up at her.
"I love it. I love it so much Naruto. Thank you." The tears in her eyes were rolling down her face. Naruto chuckled. "Don't cry Hinata." She was crying silently. "I'm so happy, that they just won't stop. Naruto grabbed her face. Using his thumbs, he wiped away some of her tears. "That moment…when we first kissed…I knew wanting to be with you forever was sealed then." He whispered to her.
"That was such an important moment to me. Right then…I promised to love you with all my heart. Hopeful you still feel it now." Hinata had recovered from her tears. "I do feel it. Every time I look into your eyes, I feel it." She leaned her forehead against his. "Thank you for everything and I love you so much." Naruto smiled. 'I knew she'd love it' He move his lips towards hers, giving her a sweet kiss.
The two had broken apart, only giving each other mere inches between them. Hinata caressed her husband's face. "No fair Naruto, you've given me so many gift today. I haven't had time to…give you yours." Hinata watched Naruto face changed into a look of confusion. She laughed a little.
"Were you not expecting something?" He moved one hand under his chin, rubbing it out of confusion. "I mean, not really. I wouldn't mind if you did or didn't get me anything. But I'm just curious…what did you get me, Hina?" She smiled at him. "You'll see…but I can't say we could comparing our gift because they both too priceless." Okay, now Naruto was really confused.
Hinata moved from the hold Naruto had on her and ran upstairs to grab part of his gift. Naruto watched his wife disappear. What could see have gotten me? Was it coupon for ramen? Or maybe something special from her? He honestly couldn't think of what Hinata could give him. I mean, being with her was enough of a present for him. But she actually got him something. Naruto was knocked from his thoughts, when he saw Hinata walking towards him. When she was standing in front of him she had stopped moving. Naruto watched her closely. Her hands were behind her back. "Hinata?"
She was nervous. Although she had only knew for a few weeks, she couldn't believe it was time to finally tell Naruto the news. She thought that when it was finally time she would be able to just tell him, but right now in the moment…she was a little scared. But more than anyone, Naruto deserved a family and she was going to be the one to give it to him.
"What's wrong, Hinata?" Naruto watched her closely. She shook her head slightly, looking in his eyes. She was blushing a little. "I'm just a little nervous." He leaned forward on the couch, so that he was closer to her. "Don't be nervous, you'll be fine. I'll like anything that you give me." She nodded at him. "I know." She sighed to herself as she was trying to calm her nerves. Breathing a heavy breathe out she starting.
"More than anything, I wanted to give you something…that represented the both of us. Now, I finally can." She moved her hands from her back, gaving Naruto a small box. Reaching for it, he took the box as she begin speaking.
"You deserve more than anyone could give you. People may see you as a strong shinobi. But I see you as man who hearts has always been filled with love. For years, you have had such deep wounds inflicted in your heart, but you don't let those every change who you are. Every day, since we've been together, I'm glad I am the one who gets to see what's truly in your heart. I get to experience your warmth. Feel your love. See you smile and laugh. I adore when I get you see you confused, and sometimes even annoyed. I love that I get to see every side of you that no one can see. All of those things... make it so much easier for me to fall more in love with you every day. Naruto…thank you so much for letting me be the one to love you in a way you could never understand. Thank you for marrying me. Thank you for…making such… a wonderful gift with me."
Naruto was surprised by Hinata's little speech. He smiled at her and grabbed her hands. "I wouldn't want it any other way, Hinata." She laughed a little. "Can I open it?" She nodded her head. He opened it. Inside was a necklace that looked like the one he use to have. The green one Tsunade had given him a long ago. The one that was made with some of the First Hokage chakra. But this one was different. Instead on it being just one solid color, it was a mixture of two. At the top, it was orange. Representing him. A little towards the middle it would change to a purple. Representing Hinata and then after the purple, it was blank. As though it was missing a color.
"Hinata…" She stopped him mid-sentence. "It a charm that is filled with our chakra, so you'll know that no matter what we will always be by your side. Watch you and protecting you." Naruto looked confused. "We?" Hinata nodded. He really liked her gift and the meaning behind it. But where was she going with this.
"Hinata, I love it. But why is the other end clear. I mean it's just me and you?" Then suddenly, something in his dense mind clicked. "Wait…Hina." She smiled down at him. Naruto shot up from the couch, grabbing Hinata by her shoulders. "Hinata, are you…?" She decided to play with him a little. "Am I what, Naruto?" He wasn't sure what was going on, but he had a strong feeling Hinata was going to say something important. "Uh..I.." Hinata had to stop herself from almost laughing at him. 'His putting so much thought into it.' He deserve to get teased a little. He had been doing it to her all night. Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Hinata, this isn't funny."
She laughed to herself. 'It kind of is.' Deciding that she had teased him enough."Okay, I'll stop." She moved closer to Naruto, grabbing one of his hand that were on her shoulders. She placed a kiss on his palm before moving his hand down to her stomach were her little bump was slowly growing. She placed it there, looking into his eyes she said, "You're going to be a dad, Naruto."
Naruto had to stopped moving instantly. He was staring into her beautiful lavender eyes. What did she just say? Then he remember her say something before. He replayed it in his mind. "Thank you making such a wonder gift with me." It all clicked then. He was going to be a dad. Hinata, she was pregnant. But he was going to…be…a…dad.
Hinata couldn't tell what he was thinking. Naruto had moved away from her to sit on the couch. He was in complete shock. More than anything in the world. All he had ever wanted was a family. When he married Hinata, he was so happy that he finally got it. But now his little family was growing.
"Naruto?" Hinata sat down right beside him. She put a hand on his back. She couldn't see his face, but she could feel him trembling. Why was he trembling? Hinata moved her other hand to his face, and could feel his tears as they were sliding down his face. She moved his face so it was looking at her. Naruto, he was crying. "Naruto?"
He moved to hug her. Putting his face in her neck. She wrapped her arms around him. "Don't cry, Naruto." He shook his head slightly. "Sorry, you're not supposed to see me like this but I'm so…happy. Hinata…you…" She moved so she could see his face. "I…can't believe it. You…you're…we're going to be parents." He was at a loss for words. She smiled at him. "We are." Naruto kissed her lips. He broke away, smiling at her. "I would have never thought…that this would happen anytime soon." Hinata moved her hand so that she was rubbing her hand against his cheek. "Never did I. But I'm happy it did."
Naruto was so excited. He wanted to shout it to the world. He wanted everyone to hear him say that he'll be a father! But he controlled himself from doing it. He could just do it later. But right now, he wanted Hinata more than anything. She had made him incredibly happy. Never had he though in his life that he would be someone who deserved a family, but Hinata…she had proven him wrong.
She had showed him that he was more than worthy to fall in love and even have a family. She had given him the wish he thought would never be fulfilled. 'Never will I stop loving her. She changed my world for the better.' As she was caressing his cheeks, Naruto was just staring at her.
He was thinking to himself how he wanted her more than anything right. He needed to show this remarkable person how truly amazing she was. He grabbed her hand from his face. He stood up, scooping Hinata up into his arms. Taking her upstairs to their room, where they would continue the rest of the night.
