"Is it ok? Did it work?"

"Of course it worked, they're professionals… It worked, right?"

"Yeah I think so…"

"Guys shh, I think she's waking up…"

Hinata heard the voices become louder, and her fuzzy thoughts became clearer. But where was she? The last thing she remembered was walking into the hospital with Neji and her father… Suddenly it hit her, and she started panicking.

Naruto saw realization hit Hinata's face, though her eyes were still covered with cloth, and took her hand before she started hyperventilating.

"Hinata, it's me," he called out softly, "We're all here. Are you ok?" Hinata relaxed a bit.

"Naruto," she breathed. Everyone in the room glanced around at each other. The air was tense and silent. Naruto held Hinata's hand comfortingly.

"Are you ready, Hinata?" he asked quietly, kindly. Hinata's breath caught. She paused a moment before nodding, her heart swelling with excitement and fear to the point she thought it might burst. Naruto hesitated before letting go of her hand and reaching up to take hold of the corner of the wrapping on her eyes. His hands shook, and finally he took a deep breath and began pulling away the cloth. Everyone held their breath as the last bit of fabric dropped away. It was dead silent and Naruto took hold of Hinata's hand once again. It was a moment later before Hinata took a deep breath and her eyes flitted open. Everyone's breath caught and it was quiet before giggles erupted in the room. Tears streamed down Hinata's cheeks as she looked at each of them, truly looked at them.

"I-I can see you all," she whispered, "I-I can see all o-of you!" Sakura laughed, tears running down her cheeks as she gave Hinata a big hug.

"I'm so happy for you, Hinata," she told her truly as Hinata returned the hug, not minding that they were probably getting tears on each other. Neji stood with Tenten in the corner, observing the scene with a smile on his face. Hinata finally got what she wanted the most. What she deserved. Just then he heard a voice by his side.

"O-Oh Neji, it's a-amazing," Neji turned to see Tenten's cheeks wet with tears as that silly grin of hers was spread on her face as she watched Hinata get hugged by all of her friends. Neji smiled and nodded.

"I know." Tenten giggled and wrapped an arm around his waist, leaning on his side. Neji's smile grew a bit as she held her back, continuing to look at Hinata, who could finally look back.

Hinata giggled and turned to look to her left, where Naruto had become silent. He stood awkwardly with his head turned away from her, a hand over his cheek, pretending to itch it. She knew the real reason for him doing this, though, and reached out a hand to him.

"N-Naruto…" He turned slightly to her, his blue eyes gazing at her as he continued to cover his cheeks. Hinata's breath momentarily caught at the sight of his beautiful eyes; they were even more amazing than she could have imagined. She shook her head and took the hand that was covering his cheek and gently pulled it away. He sighed and ducked his head a bit, though not before Hinata could see the thin, long scars running along both his cheeks, that almost ruined his the picture of his beautiful face. Almost. Hinata smiled and reached out a hand, her fingertips gently brushing against the scars on one side of his face. Naruto raised his head to meet her gaze with worried and scared eyes.

"I hope you don't… Think differently… you know, because of the… scars," Naruto mumbled, motioning to his cheeks. Hinata smiled kindly.

"What scars, N-Naruto?" Naruto looked up at her in surprise before a huge grin spread on his face. They smiled at each other for a moment before someone called out. Both of them turned to see Sakura smiling at them, a small hand mirror in her hands. She approached the bed and held it out to Hinata.

"I think it's been a while since you've seen yourself," she said with a smile, "I thought you might want this." Hinata's eyes widened. She looked back at Naruto, who gave her an encouraging smile and nod before turning back to Sakura and gently taking the mirror. Hinata took a deep breath before turning the mirror over to face her and peering in. White, cloudy, glassy orbs stared back at her, and her breath caught. She looked so different from when she had last saw herself… These brought on new tears, and Naruto took her hand, smiling. Hinata looked up at him, and he brushed away a few of her tears.

"Yep, there they are," he murmured with a smile, "Winter's eyes."

With some convincing, the group finally got the doctor to give them permission to take Hinata outside. He said too much excitement wasn't a good idea, though, so after a minute they decided Naruto would go with her. Naruto now tugged on Hinata's hand, pulling her past the hospital doors and out into the open. Hinata's eyes widened as she held out a palm. A tiny, white snow drop drifted to settle on her hand before disappearing, only to be replaced by another.

Sheets of white covered the ground and tree tops, and for once Hinata understood why Neji had brought her a large coat and insisted she wear it when Naruto decided to take her outside. Naruto felt a smile grace his lips as he watched new, happy tears reach and slide down Hinata's face as she stared around at all the snow.

"I-It's beautiful," she whispered, turning to give him a dazzling smile. Suddenly Naruto remembered something Ino told him when he went to visit her in the month before her passing.

Ino smiled at him.

"Hinata trusts you more than anyone, you know," she told him, "Except maybe Neji. Maybe." Naruto smiled a bit and shook his head.

"I was probably just one of the first to be nice to her, that's all." Ino shook her head.

"There's a line between being thankful and really, really liking someone. She really likes you, Naruto, I can tell." Naruto sighed, avoiding looking at her.

"If she could see, though…" He only muttered this under his breath, but Ino caught it, and noticed his fingers brush over the marks on his cheeks. Ino smiled a little and shook her head, taking his hand. Naruto turned to her in slight surprise and her smile grew.

"Looks only go so far, Naruto," she stated, "Just think, do you honestly think Hinata would stop being around you if she could see? It seems to me she sees a lot better than people think, huh?"

"N-Naruto?" Naruto was brought out of his reverie and looked up to see Hinata looking worriedly at him. He smiled a little at her caring.

"A-Are you ok?" she asked. Naruto's smile grew and he nodded, approaching her.

"Yeah I'm fine… I was just thinking." Hinata observed him before her eyes dropped to the ground, and her fingers twirled around each other nervously. Naruto smiled at the small habit, secretly glad that it wasn't something she gained after losing her sight.

"I-I…" Naruto was once again brought out of his thoughts by Hinata's voice, and frowned a bit.

"I wish…" Hinata whispered, "I-I wish I could h-have seen you s-sooner… M-Maybe…. Maybe I c-could have h-helped b-better if I…."

Naruto felt a smile grow on his face and shook his head. Hinata jumped and looked up in surprise as Naruto began to laugh. He shook his head again, continuing to laugh, and took her hand as his other arm slipped slightly around her waist, making Hinata blush.

"Hinata," he said seriously, staring into her eyes though a smile was still present of his face, "You saw and still see me better than anyone has in a really, really long time." Hinata smiled, and she was only surprised for a moment when Naruto brought her closer, pressing his lips to hers before surrendering to the kiss, and momentarily closing her winter's eyes.
