Chapter 6:

Talking It Out:

Hinata had to find Naruto, he was the only thing on her mind at this point.

She was sprinting through the town, looking for her crush, but she didn't have any idea where he went since he disappeared so quickly.

'Got to find him, got to apologize, got to tell him I'm an idiot, got to beg him to at least be my friend again...' thought Hinata desperately.

She stopped in an intersection to look and see if she could see the orange jumpsuit wearing blonde.

"He hates me, he probably hates my guts." said Hinata sadly.

She was still holding back her tears of sorrow for her idiotic-ness.

She entered the southern apartment complex grounds, and realized where she was.

"He must be at his house!" exclaimed Hinata as she turned right into Naruto's apartment complex.

What Hinata didn't know, was that someone was watching her from across the street.

'Hinata! Going into Naruto's apartment!' thought Kurenai as she chuckled to herself.

'I had no idea Hinata was such a... pervert!' thought Kurenai as she laughed to herself.

She was about to let Hinata do what she wanted with the boy, but then she saw someone walking towards her. He was probably the last person she expected to meet.

'Oh Crap. Hiashi?' thought Kurenai as she smiled and waved at the Hyuuga.

Hiashi stopped right in front of her, with his patented Stern-father-figure-Clan-Leader-I-don't-give-a-crap look and began to address her formally.

"Ms. Kurenai?" asked Hiashi as though he was not sure.

"Yes?" said Kurenai in return, knowing the Hyuuga all too well as the head-asshole of the village.

"You are my daughter's Sensei, correct?" asked Hiashi.

"Yes, I believe I am." said Kurenai matter-of-factly.

"Well, I would like to talk to you about this upcoming mission my daughter is to be on." said Hiashi sternly.

"What about?" asked Kurenai.

"It is about Hinata, and her... living arrangements." said Hiashi, folding his arms.

Hiashi did not like the fact that Naruto and Hinata were going on a mission together, let alone sleeping near each other.

"What about them?" asked Kurenai politely.

Hiashi went to open his mouth, but before he could answer, the sound of broken glass filled the area.

They turned and looked down the street to see Kiba fly through a window, rolling randomly on the ground with an enourmous spider on his back.

"AHHHHH! AHHHHHH! GET IT OOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFF!" screamed Kiba as he rolled around some more.

Hiashi was shocked at this occurence and was annoyed, but decided to ignore it and continue.

"Ahem, as I was saying I..."

"AAAAAAHHHHH!" said Kiba.

"..."

"As I was..."

"AAAHHH!" said Kiba.

"..."

"As..."

"AAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEYYYYYAAAAAHHHHH!" screamed Kiba as he smashed through another window across the street.

Voices could still be heard from the inside of the bar Kiba flew into.

"Hey what's the big idea buddy?" asked a man.

"Yeah, what's yer problem breaking this... OH MY GOD LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT SPIDER!" exclaimed another man.

Sounds of mass panic were heard as the bar evacuated, leaving Kiba on his own.

Hiashi was still surprised, but was determined to make sure that Hinata stayed away from that boy.

"Whatever you want to say, you had better hurry, because the mission starts in one hour." said Kurenai.

"AAAAAHHHHH!" said Kiba from inside the bar.

"Wha...What did you say!" asked Hiashi, surprised that the mission was so soon.

"I SAID AAAAAHHHH!" screamed Kiba as they heard him stumbling over tables and chairs.

"HAVEN'T YOU BEEN LISTENING!" screamed Kiba as he fell back out of the window.

"Ahem...anyway..." began Hiashi.

"WHY DOESN'T ANYONE HELP ME!" screamed Kiba as he disappeared into an alley.

'Grrrrr... With all of these interuptions, I will never be able to tell Kurenai that I want them to be kept apart.' thought Hiashi as he turned his attention back to Kurenai.

"Look, if it has something to do with Hinata, I'm sure you could just tell her, she's mature enough for whatever you may ask her." said Kurenai proudly.

"But I may not have time to tell her." protested Hiashi.

"Yeah you do. As soon as she's done at Naruto's apartment, I'm sure you could talk to her." said Kurenai with a mischievous smirk.

Hiashi stood stunned at what she had said.

She had probably given Naruto a death sentence, but it was worth it to see the look on Hiashi's face.

"...Hinata... Done... Appartment... NARUTO!" exclaimed Hiashi incredulously as he glared at Kurenai.

"How could you let this happen!" seethed Hiashi.

But Kurenai just smiled and put her hands on her hips.

"I usually let things take thier natural course..." said Kurenai, smirking at where she was leading the conversation.

"And if that involves letting them go at it like rabbits on a daily basis, then so be it." said Kurenai with a smirk.

"Like... rabbits... DAILY!" screamed Hiashi as he ran toward Naruto's apartment.

'Hahaa! I don't even know if Hinata is there to visit Naruto or not. Hell, I know for a fact that she's still a virgin.' thought Kurenai happily.

It wasn't often she got to pull a prank, and the fact that the prank was on Hiashi, made it all the sweeter.

Hiashi ran up to the door of the apartment complex, and right before he opened the door, it flew open, knocking him onto his butt, as a Hinata blur zoomed over him like he didn't exist.

Hinata still couldn't find Naruto, and she was running out of places to look. She knew one person that for sure knew where Naruto was at almost all times, but it would be hard to get an appointment with Tsunade before the mission.

"The mission... THE MISSION!" shreaked Hinata as she realized that the mission was less then an hour away.

She had no choice, she had to barge into the Hokage's office, without an appointment.

Half an hour later, Hinata found herself running down the hall to the Hokage's office, but there was a Chunnin blocking the way.

He stood up formally and held up his hand. "I'm sorry miss, but I cannot allow you to enter." said the Chunnin, as he examined the state of the emotionally distressed Hyuuga girl.

"Bite me" said Hinata.

She pushed the chunnin a little too hard, and he flew out of the window behind him.

She would have to say she was sorry later, but right now, Naruto was priority number one.

She nearly broke the door in as she flew into the Hokage's office. She was ready to tell the hokage everything that had happened, so that she could get Tsunade to help her. But when she looked around the room, she saw the last person she expected to see.

It was Naruto, he was on his hands and knees next to the Hokage's desk, and was trying very hard to hold back his tears.

Tsunade had her hand on Naruto's shoulder, and was trying to comfort him. She had an uncharacteristic and almost motherly look on her face as she tried to calm him down.

But that expression changed as she looked up to see Hinata. Naruto had apparently told her everything that had happened, because the expression she wore towards Hinata did not show happiness, but it showed anger towards her.

"You've got a lot of nerve to show up here." said Tsunade sternly.

What Tsunade said, reminded Hinata of what happened when Naruto tried to explain, but this time it was the Hokage saying it instead of Kiba.

"I... I..." said Hinata, feeling the tears well up in her eyes again.

So this was how Naruto felt, when he tried to tell her the truth, but was shot down. She felt terrible. For all she had done to Naruto, she felt she deserved to be punished. She didn't want Naruto to hate her. She didn't want Naruto to feel like she hated him. She didn't hate him, she was very very far from hating him. But she had told him that she did. She had told him that she never wanted to see him again. She could only imagine what pain he was feeling. Pain that she caused.

"Well?" asked Tsunade impatiently as she struck a threatening pose.

"N-NARUTO!" screamed Hinata as she flew across the room.

What she did next even surprised the hokage.

Hinata flew onto Naruto and wrapped her arms around him a close embrace.

"I'm Sorry!" exclaimed Hinata as tears line her cheeks.

"I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry!" exclaimed Hinata frantically.

Naruto was now in shock at the girl who had him in a bear hug. A little while ago, she told him that she never wanted to see him again, but now...

After a few moments, Hinata regained her composure a little.

"I... I heard the tape." said Hinata, quietly, trying not to stutter.

Naruto now realized why she was saying she was sorry.

'So... so she listened to the tape after all.' thought Naruto as his mind raced.

"I soooo sorrrrrryyyyy!" sobbed Hinata as she hugged him a bit tighter.

"I... I... I-I was a com... complete j-jerk to you, b-but I... I didn't know... I thought you... that you had b-broken my t-trust I had f-for y-y-you" stuttered Hinata between sobs.

Naruto was so happy that Hinata had forgiven him. Now that she knew the truth, he wanted to let her know that he forgave her too.

'Will he forgive me? Will he ever want to see me again, after all that was said?' thought Hinata.

Hinata's body and mind were both stressed to a breaking point. She needed him to say something. Anything.

Naruto really didn't know what to say. He was never good with words when it came down to moments like these. So he just returned the hug.

"Eeep!" squeaked Hinata.

He hugged her back snugly, holding her close.

She blushed at his return of affection as they held each other, letting their tears flow down each other's backs.

Naruto leaned in close to her ear and whispered something that made Hinata almost burst into more tears.

"I forgive you too." said Naruto quietly.

They sat in that position for a couple minutes as they both felt an overwhelming joy built up in thier hearts.

"I'm so happy that you decided to forgive me" said Naruto as he let tears of joy land on Hinata.

"For-forgive you? Y-you didn't d anything wrong y-you silly." stuttered out Hinata.

"Oh yeah..." said Naruto smiling.

She knew that she could trust him with all of her heart. She felt foolish that she ever thought otherwise.

Tsunade stood staring at the two and smiled to herself.

'Well, at least they made up.' thought Tsunade as relief swept over her as well.

Naruto could feel Hinata's steadily breathing, her chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm that enticed him to listen closer. He was beginning to feel the warmth from Hinata's body join his. She was so warm and comforting, and she was hugging him. Suddenly Naruto became very nervous, even a little bit anxious. His heart began to speed up, and with it, an unexplainable level of happiness rising from nowhere to greet his heart.

'This feeling... It's back again...' thought Naruto.

For reasons he didn't fully understand, he felt the need to move his hands around her body. He felt the need to try to comfort her.

He began to caress Hinata's back with his right hand.

Hinata turned red at the feeling of Naruto rubbing her back. She felt his warmth and comfort swell up around her, making her feel happy and warm.

'I... I like this feeling, but now I'm all nervous again, and I still don't know why.' thought Naruto.

He had his head over her right shoulder, he could see her hair draping over and down her back.

He felt another urge, he wanted to smell her hair.

He closed his eyes, moved in a little closer, and took a deep breathe.

She smelled like lavender and lilacs, and he loved the smell. It was almost intoxicating as he breathed it in deep. He paused to realize that this smell was Hinata's scent. Not just her hair, but her body's scent. He felt his heart speed up as he continued to hold the small teen in his arms.

Over the years of training, Naruto had developed into a man, and Hinata had developed into a woman. Although he didn't realize Hinata's mature form before, he most certainly did now. Hinata's figure was pressed up against him.

He began to blush.

'Aaaahhhh... young love' thought Tsunade as she held her hands to her heart.

Naruto felt as though he could trust her with anything, and that he would love to be around her whenever he could. He wanted to contemplate these mixed emotions, but was interrupted by a sudden movement near the entrance of the office.

An angry Hiashi burst through the door, frightening the two apart. As Naruto moved, his knee caught on a loose floorboard, and he fell onto Hinata, accidentally pinning her to the floor.

Naruto and Hinata froze, their faces inches from each other's.

Now Hiashi froze. His daughter was lying on the floor, with Naruto in between her legs.

"OH MY GOD!" exclaimed Hiashi.

Naruto looked at the position he was in and realized what it looked like he was doing.
