Chapter 10

All the sexy clones disappeared as Naruto stood battered and bloody above the knocked out Hiashi. Naruto had an overwhelming joy and pride that filled the pit of his stomach and let out a shout of victory!

"Hell YEAH!" said Naruto aloud as he thrust an arm into the air. As everyone had seen the battle end finally, they all left their seats in a hurry to reach the destroyed battle ground to congratulate Naruto on his victory. The first to greet him of course was Hinata.

"Naruto!" exclaimed Hinata as she ran and jumped into Naruto's arms and hugged him with all of her might.

"Hinata! I told you I would win!" said Naruto sounding extremely proud. Hinata blushed and nodded as she snuggled her face into his chest and breathed in his scent. Hinata looked up into Naruto's deep eyes and smiled.

"Yeah, you won!" said Hinata as her face began to change expression. "But…" she said. Naruto looked at her seeming alerted of her change in mood.

"What's wrong?" asked Naruto seeming completely clueless of what he had just done. Hinata looked up at him seeming a bit embarrassed, with her face a dark shade of red.

"I… I knew that you were a pervert… but I never knew that you were a HUGE pervert." said Hinata. Naruto looked at her sharing her same expression and then began to scratch the back of his head.

"Oh… well, about that… see, it was from long time ago… and Pervy Sage taught me a thing or two…" said Naruto trying to make up an excuse.

"Are you… really into that sort of thing?" asked Hinata. Naruto waved his hands back and forth while his face turned even darker red.

"No! I'm not! Not at all! I promise!" he said speaking really quickly. "I mean, I am! I mean, not with just anyone! If it was with you then it would be different! I didn't mean-" Naruto had realized what he just said as Hinata suddenly turned ruby red and fell unconscious from the comment. "W-Wait! Hinata! That came out wrong! I'm sorry! Please don't faint on me!" yelled Naruto as he tried to shake her awake, but it was no use. Hinata was out like a light.

"NAAARUUUTOOOOOOO!" yelled Sakura aloud. Naruto looked her way, but was greeted with a powerful fist into his face, causing him to fly back at least twenty feet. When he recovered, Naruto looked at Sakura who seemed incredibly furious.

"What the hell, Sakura!" yelled Naruto.

"You said you were gonna use the sexy jutsu to defeat him! You never said anything about an army of super busty sexy chicks!" yelled Sakura completely infuriated.

"Well my plan worked didn't it! And don't get so pissy at me for using a jutsu that makes your boobs look as flat as pancakes!" yelled Naruto. That last statement, though true as it was, was the last straw. Sakura showed no mercy as she grabbed his collar and waved him back and forth while screaming a bunch of profanities, and with the occasional punch in the face so hard that even his bruises could have been bleeding.

"Sakura, Naruto just had a really difficult fight, so you shouldn't be too rough on him right now…" said Kakashi as he tried to speak over Sakura's powerful wave of profanities. When Naruto was through receiving a beating from Sakura, everyone gathered around to congratulate him.

"Great job, Naruto!" yelled Kiba.

"I didn't think you would actually be able to do it!" said Tenten.

"It was all thanks to my special gate training!" yelled Gai above everyone else with Lee agreeing with him.

"True love prevails!" yelled Ino and Sakura together both as a joke and being totally serious. Once the celebration was over, Naruto took Hinata's hand and went over to Hiashi who had just come back to his senses.

"Sexy… fine… women…" said Hiashi as he began to wake up. "… boobs… big… bouncy…" Naruto slapped him once and Hiashi awoke immediately.

"Wake up… you perv." said Naruto seeming a little irritated by how pathetic Hiashi actually was.

"W-What!" said Hiashi as he looked at Naruto and Hinata. "What happened! Did I… lose?" he asked sounding unsure.

"Yeah, something like that." said Naruto. Hiashi looked at Naruto and suddenly realized the truth.

"W-Wait! I... I passed out from all the sexiness of those fine ladies!" yelled Hiashi sounding completely humiliated. Naruto couldn't help but laugh at Hiashi's sudden change of character and stuck a hand out to him to help him up.

"Don't worry old man. You're not the only closet pervert that has fallen victim to that jutsu!" said Naruto proudly which earned him another knock on his head from Sakura. The pain was so great, he started rolling back on forth on the ground again.

"Don't sound so proud of that wretched technique." said Sakura with a deathly tone. Hiashi looked at the scene of people around him and sighed heavily.

"I… I can't believe this. I was humiliated in public by a young child… this is terrible…" said Hiashi. Naruto once again offered his hand to Hiashi as he took it and stood up again. Hiashi looked at Naruto sternly and then his eyes were suddenly filled with rage. Naruto backed off thinking that Hiashi was going to strike at him again. But instead… Hiashi applauded him. Hiashi's expression that meant "I-mean-business" suddenly changed to one of respect. Everyone seemed extremely confused at this turn of events.

"W-What?" asked Naruto. Hiashi applauded for a second or two more and then put his hands behind his back.

"Naruto, you're a very good young man. And a very skilled ninja." said Hiashi with a smile, which was beyond rare according to him. Naruto looked at him dumbfounded, just like everyone else.

"Wait… WHAT!" yelled Naruto in complete shock. Hiashi let out a hearty laugh and then turned to Hinata and gave her a thumbs up.

"Hinata, you have indeed picked out a very fine young man!" said Hiashi. Hinata's face turned as white as a sheet because of how she didn't understand. Hiashi looked back at Naruto and everyone else and began to explain.

"What's going on?" asked Naruto.

"I assume that you must be very confused right now, Naruto. I think it's time that I explain myself as well as my actions." said Hiashi. Everyone listened to Hiashi, not sure what to expect to hear from him. "You'll have to forgive me, but I had to make sure."

"Make sure of what?" Naruto exclaimed. Hiashi smiled and put a hand on Naruto's shoulder and squeezed it a bit.

"I had to make sure that, in case you and Hinata were to marry one day, that you would be a good husband for her!" said Hiashi. Naruto and everyone was silent for a second, but then they all screamed.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAT!" they all yelled.

"But… if you were testing me, how come you tried to kill me!" asked Naruto pointing a finger at Hiashi.

"I never truly planned to kill you, Naruto. But I didn't hold back a single bit during that fight." said Hiashi. Naruto paused for a moment and then continued on.

"I'm still a little confused. From the beginning again?" asked Naruto. Hiashi chuckled and nodded.

"When I forced the information out of Neji, I chose to design a plan to test how much you loved Hinata and to see whether or not you could protect her better than I could. I only played the part of the cold, heartless father for you to try and get passed all that to see if your love for Hinata was strong and true." said Hiashi.

"But what about the MEM Technique! That seriously could have killed me!" said Naruto aloud.

"Yes, it could have. But only if I let it. The MEM technique allows me to monitor the person I cast it upon. If you were truly going to kill yourself, I would have stopped the jutsu on my own. And…" said Hiashi looking towards Hinata, then back at Naruto. "…the only way to really stop the jutsu on your own, was to think about the person you loved most in the world. In your case Naruto, that would have been Hinata." said Hiashi almost finishing up. Hinata linked her hand with Naruto's as they both blushed from the contact between them.

"So then… what do you think, Lord Hyuga?" asked Kakashi to Hiashi. After giving it some thought, Hiashi nodded and came to a decision as he turned to Hinata.

"Hinata, you have become a very beautiful and splendid young woman as well as a powerful kunoichi." said Hiashi putting a hand up to his daughter's cheek. "You have always been very important to me, and I wanted to make sure that you were treated right." Hiashi looked to Naruto and stuck a hand out to him. When they shook, it was a firm and confident shake. "And Naruto, you are an incredible ninja, and an even more spectacular young man. I personally can't imagine Hinata being with anybody else but you. You have my permission as well as my blessing, to marry Hinata as you wish." said Hiashi with a genuine smile. Naruto's face turned bright red again as Hinata blushed heavily and looked away.

"Wait, hold on! I never agreed to marriage! I just wanted to be with Hinata!" yelled Naruto. Hinata turned to him seeming a bit sad.

"So… you're saying you don't want to marry me?" asked Hinata timidly. Naruto turned to her quickly and put both of his hands on her shoulders.

"Of course I do! I wanna spend the rest of my life with you!" said Naruto. There was a long pause before Naruto realized what he had just said. Then, there was a burst of laughter as Sakura, Ino, and Tenten responded in their own way.

"That settles it! We're gonna have a wedding!" yelled Kiba.

"AWWWWWWWWW! That's a marriage proposal if I ever knew one!" yelled Sakura Tenten and Ino all at the same time.

"Sh-Shut up! I picked my words wrong! Stop it!" said Naruto sounding completely embarrassed. Hinata laughed and then held on to Naruto's arm tightly.

"It's alright! We have plenty of time to think about it!" said Hinata snuggling with Naruto's arm. Naruto looked down at her and smiled big as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close.

"Hinata… I love you." said Naruto. Hinata blushed and forced a big kiss onto Naruto's lips.

"I love you too!" said Hinata. Everyone couldn't stop making fun of the situation while at the same time celebrating it. Now all that was left for Hinata and Naruto to do was to fall even deeper in love, and to spend the rest of their lives together. Forever.
