"You idiot! Why did you get in the way!" Yushiro asked, furious.

"Yu Yu, stop," Kureji demanded ripping the sword from his brothers hands.

Yushiro let his wings return to his spine before running upstairs to Natsumi.

Hikari stared wide-eyed down at him, unable to comprehend what just happened. "W-Why'd you do that?" She asked.

Naruto smiled. "W-why does it matter?" He asked knowing she'd never catch on.

"Because nobody should do that, at least not for me!" She exclaimed.

He laughed weakly. "Well I did, b-believe it," His eyes fell shut once again. "I'll be fine, I have t-the nine-tails," He told her. "A-and I-I l-like you," He said almost in a whisper.

Hikari's mouth fell open. "Like, like like?" She asked, almost confused.

Naruto blushed and nodded simply not saying anything. Hikari's face went about as red as his, unsure of what to say.

Naruto sighed and weakly sat up. He figured she wasn't going to say anything more.

"L-let's go," Naruto said pulling Hikari up. Her face got redder as he pulled her up; their hands went together so well.

"O-Okay," She replied.

Naruto quickly pulled Hikari out of the house and out into the now dark street. The two walked away until they found a bench where Naruto sat down panting, his hand still entwined in Hikari's.

She looked up at him worriedly. "A-Are you sure you're okay?" Hikari asked.

He nodded. "It's almost healed,"

She let out a tiny sigh of relief and ran a hand through her long hair, looking up at him with worried eyes. "I-I wish you hadn't done that... I could've taken that...," Hikari trailed off.

Naruto laughed. "I'll remember that next time then,"

She averted her eyes to the ground. "I-I'm sorry I made all that happen," She mumbled.

"It's not a problem, i-it's just how they are," He admitted. "Are you okay, though?" He asked, sounding concerned.

She gave a meek shrug. "I-I think, but it really hurt me when she did those things...," Hikari trailed off.

"Probably, she usually only uses it on enimes, she can even kill a person with it," He explained.

Hikari sighed and closed her eyes, leaning against Naruto's side. She really was upset that he'd gotten hurt over something so silly.

Naruto tensed under her warmth. "Y-you did realised w-what I meant e-earlier, r-right?" He asked nervously.

Hikari nodded. "Yeah, I understand," She replied.

Naruto blushed furiously as he grunted in pain; his wound fully healing itself.

"A-Are you okay?" Hikari asked worriedly.

He nodded turning to show her his back. "All healed," He annouced brightly.

She sighed in relief. "Good!" She exclaimed happily.

"You should be able to do that too, you know," He told her.

She blinked in surprise. "Like you mean heal fast? Oh I dunno! I've never really been hurt like that," Hikari admitted.

Naruto smiled and pulled out a kunai, he made a very shallow cut on her arm.

"Now we can find out," He told her.

Hikari uncomfortably sat there as a warm sensation spread through her arm. She swallowed nervously as she watched intently.

The two watch in amazment as the cut slowly fell in onto itself and her skin looked perfectly smooth again.

"Guess you do," Naruto said smiling at her.

She timidly ran a finger over the skin; she felt nothing. Hikari nodded up at him, surprised he'd been right.

Naruto smiled even brighter as he laid back against the bench, spreading his arms out across it.

"So, now what?" He asked simply looking up to the bright moon.

Hikari followed his gaze upwards and gave a tiny shrug. "Whatever you feel like!" She replied brightly.

"Well your brother would probably be wondering where you are," He said.

"He wouldn't too much, since I'm always out and about so much," She replied.

"True, but still, I have no idea of anything else we can do, I mean I live alone so I'd be doing nothing anyway," He told her.

"Oh! That's no fun! Living by yourself must be boring then, if that's the case!" Hikari exclaimed.

Naruto nodded simply. "I'm used to it though,"

"Don't you have people over?" She wondered.

"W-well yeah, but I still live alone," He told her.

"Why don't you have people live with you?" She asked.

Naruto blinked. "I-I dunno, t-theres no one I guess,"

Hikari frowned. "That's uncool."

"I-I guess," He hesitated, slightly confused by her actions.

She looked at him for pretty much the first time and went over every detail- she'd never really looked at him before, just glances really. He had really nice blue eyes, she thought with a blush. "I really like your eyes!" Hikari told him brightly with a smile.

Naruto seemed confused as he looked at her. "Ah, thanks?" He said with a small laugh.

Her eyes fell to his stomach and she couldn't help but reach out and touched his abs. "I- uh - you're strong," Hikari stated with an embarrassed laugh.

Naruto blushed and almost had to fight the urge to back away. "Ah, y-yeah, I s-spent five years training," He told her with a small laugh.

"Five years?" She echoed, looking up at him with bright eyes. Wow, she thought to herself, he must be really strong.

He nodded. "It was tiring, but fun," He admitted.

"That's a long time," Hikari said in almost a daze.

He nodded again.

"Why do you have whiskers?" She asked suddenly, her eyes bright with anticipation.

He actually had to laugh. "I don't know to be honest, I was just born with it," He told her.

"That's so awesome! I wish I had whiskers 'cause then I could be like: meow, I'm a kitty cat!" Hikari exclaimed, pretending to scratch the air.

Naruto laughed again. "You really are an odd one,"

She smiled brightly up at him. "Is that good?" She wondered.

He laughed, taking a risk, he wrapped his arm around Hikari. "I think so," He said in a playful tone.

Hikari relaxed underneath his arm and felt even happier than a moment before. "Well, that's good!" She exclaimed happily.

The two sat there in comfortable silence for a whiled, when suddenly it was broken by an irritated voice.

"What the hell are you doing, Nauto?" The voice asked.

Hikari's eyes widened as she looked up at her older brother. "Um," She replied quietly.

Kazuki crossed his arms as he glared at Naruto. "You never told me you had the hots for my little sister," He hissed.

"I-I d-didn't t-think you'd b-be that m-mad," Naruto hesitated.

Hikari looked between them. "I don't think he has the hots for me, Kazuki- he said he likes me," She told him, feeling smart.

"That's the same thing!" Kazuki yelled.

"Oh! I didn't know that!" She exlcaimed, looking between the pair.

Kazuki almost growled as he grabbed his sisters arm and ripped her from the bench, not saying a word to Naruto.

"W-where are you taking her?" Naruto asked as he stood up.

"Away from you, asshole!" Kazuki yelled back at his friend.

Hikari tried to pull away from Kazuki as she whimpered. "Lemme go please! Kazuki!" She cried.

"No!" He yelled at his sister. "You don't understand anything about dating, he could get you in bed easily," Kazuki told her angrily.

"But I always go to bed!" She exclaimed, trying to pull her arm from his grasp; he was hurting her.

Kazuki sighed. "I mean sex!" He yelled.

Her face went bright pink as she shook her head. "N-No! Naruto isn't like that and I'm a good girl!" She cried out.

He shook his head. "You never know, and you have no idea of anything!" He screamed at her.

Hikari shook her head too, still trying to get outta his grasp. "No! Stop! I do know; really I do! He's a nice guy and he wouldn't want that from me!"

"He's a guy, that's all guys want!" He exclaimed, irritated.

"No! Would it be fair to say that's all you want?" She questioned angrily, pulling away from him more. "Just leave me alone! I'm almost an adult!"

He sighed turning to face her. "Dad is never home and Mom is dead, I have to look after you, which means with guys too," He told her.

"Don't mention mom," Hikari got out. "And well, I can take care of myself!"

"No you can't!" He exclaimed.

"Yes, I can! Leave me alone! A guy *actually* likes me! Let me live my life!" Hikari exclaimed.

Kazuki glared at his sister. "Fine, but if you get hurt, don't come crying to me!" He let go of her arm and walked off toward home.

Hikari stood there, rubbing her arm tentively. She turned and looked over at Naruto, unsure as to what she should say to him. That was an incredibly awkward experience.

Naruto laughed weakly as he walked toward Hikari. "Y-You alright?" He asked, a blush spread across his face.

She responded with a nod, not saying anything else. Kazuki seemed to be really mad at her, and she didn't know what to think of that.

"Maybe you should go after him," Naruto suggested. "He seemed really mad,"

Hikari gave a tiny shrug. "I'm afraid if I go he'll get even more mad 'cause I'll be bugging him," She replied.

"O-Oh, w-well it's getting late, what're you going to do then?" He asked her.

"What do ya mean?" She questioned.

"Well you don't wanna go home to your brother right? But its getting late, as in a genin like you should be indoors, so what're you going to do?" He asked her.

"Oh! I dunno! I hadn't thought it through, really!" Hikari replied with a laugh.

Naruto laughed as well. "Well maybe you should now, cause I need to get home too, I have to get up early to train," He told her, grinning.

"Oh! Well, I dunno where to go!" She told him with a grin.

Naruto blinked. "Well, if you aren't gonna go home you could go to Hinata's o-or m-my place," He offered.

"Sure! We'd have fun!" Hikari replied happily.

Naruto blushed furiously. "I- er... w-well n-not that t-type of f-fun...," He trailed off as dirty thoughts filled his weak mind.

"What do you mean?" She asked, disappointment in her voice. "I love having fun!"

"W-well y-yeah we can have fun," He said simply. Not like she knows what I mean anyway... He thought to himself.

She smiled happily up at him.

Naruto too, smiled as he turned in the direction of his home and began walking. Hikari followed along side him, skipping along with a bright smile.

"S-sorry it's not much," Naruto told her as he opened the door to his tiny home.

"It's cute!" She assured him.

Naruto laughed as he lead Hikari to the bedroom. "I-If you want you can sleep on my bed," He told her.

"Okay! Where will you sleep?" She wondered, looking up at him with bright eyes.

"Couch I guess," He told her with a nervous laugh.

"But that's not a very comfortable place to sleep!" She exclaimed.

"W-well no, but i-it's alright," He assured her.

"No! You can have the bed, don't worry about me!" Hikari told him.

"W-well we could- n-nevermind," He cut himself off.

"Hm?" She asked, looking up at him curiously.

"N-Nevermind, you can just use my bed," He said nervously.

"Why don't we share?" She suggested brightly, feeling rather smart.

Naruto blushed furiously. She really didn't understand much, and if somehow her brother found out, he'd be so dead! "W-well um, I-I g-guess w-we could,"

She smiled happily up at him. "See! Then it works out so much better!" She exclaimed.

Naruto turned his back to her trying to hide his blush. "Y-Yeah,"

"Do you maybe have shorts, or trackpants I can borrow?" She wondered. Her shirt was always comfortable, but she didn't wanna wear her skirt to bed; she felt it was too tight and too uncomfortable.

A shiver ran down the boy's spine as he walked forward to his dresser and threw a pair of pants at her. He kept his back to her as he pulled off his shirt, tossing it to the side, and pulling off his pants so he was only in boxers. He walked over and laid down in his bed with his eyes shut and his hands behind his head.

Hikari's eyes watched Naruto intently; he was practically naked in front of her, she though to herself as she pulled her skirt off and pulled on his pants. She crawled into his bed, still with her eyes trained on his chest. He really was good looking, and she felt stupid for never noticing before.

Naruto opened one eye to look at Hikari. "Wh-what?" He asked nervously noticing the almost hungry look in her eyes. "Why're you looking at me like that?"

Her face heated up as she pulled her eyes away and caught his eyes. "W-What do you mean?" She wondered.

"W-why were you starring at me?" He asked with a small laugh.

"I didn't mean to," Hikari defended, embarrassed.

He laughed. "That's alright," He assured her simply letting his eyes fall shut again. Her eyes went back to his chest, and then his arms. Why did she suddenly feel so attracted to him? She was never one to pay attention to guys much at all, but she couldn't seem to help it with Naruto.

Naruto yawned as he shifted a bit, his arm reached around Hikari and pulled her closer to him - was he asleep, or still awake?

A blush creeped onto her face at the contact of their chests and she looked up at him, unsure if she should move, or anything.

He seemed motionless and peaceful as he kept his grip on Hikari. Her hand ran along his chest without really thinking it though; she just wanted to touch him. He seemed so solid and so strong and dependable.

Naruto tensed under her touch as he looked at her sleepily. "W-what're you doing?" He asked in a yawn; he didn't seem mad, or irriated, just curious.

She pulled her hand back, her heart pounding in her chest. "I-I dunno!" She replied, embarrassed.

He laughed at her as he reached for her hand placing it back on his hard abs, his eyes falling shut again. She brought her other hand against his abs, her heart still racing. She felt like he any moment her heart would just burst outta her chest. She took in a deep breath and slowly exhaled- she wasn't supposed to be that well, turned on by him, she was supposed to be the sweet and innocent little Hikari! She gave her head a little shake, trying to get any dirty thoughts to leave.

Naruto laughed to himself. "I forgot to turn off the light," He mumbled. "Shadow clone jutsu!" A copy of Naruto appeared by the lightswitch and flicked it off before it disappeared. "Better," He mumbled in a yawn.

Hikari watched in surprise as his clone shut off the light. The moon lit the room as her eyes reached his abs again.

The male ninja smiled. Maybe she wasn't as dumb in her head as she was when she spoke. Her eyes reached his face and she couldn't help but notice the smug smile on his face.

"What's that look for?" Hikari wondered, blinking up at him.

"Nothing," He assured her.

She pushed a strand of hair from her face, locking eyes with him.

"You seem to be interested in me," Naruto said with a laugh.

"Uh, yeah," She responded, giggling up at him.

Naruto smiled and placed a quick kiss on her cheek before closing his eyes and inhaling, he could smell their scents mixing together, he couldn't help but to smile at it. Being the confident girl she was, she leaned up and pressed her lips to his- her first kiss was Naruto Uzumaki. The thought made her stomach do sommersaults, as she slowly pulled away.

His eyes were now open and full of confusion. He always thought his first female kiss would be from Sakura, not that he was really complaining. Hikari's eyes widened as she started to lose that confidence she'd had a moment before.

"Uh- um - erm," She got out awkwardly.

Naruto suddenly pressed his lips to hers again, his eyes falling shut. She slinked her arms around his neck and kissed him back, her heart racing at an almost unbearable pace.

Naruto kissed her back passionatly before pulling away, his eyes hazy and a small smile across his lips. "You are kinda a-amazing," He whispered.

She took a shaky breath and let out a nod. "You are too!" Hikari replied brightly.

Naruto smiled as he pulled her into a hug, their bodies close together. She relaxed in his strong hold and gazed up at him, a blush still across her. She couldn't believe she'd done that, but she was happy she did.

Naruto let himself melt into the hug as he slowly began to fade, sleep taking him off. A few moments after he fell asleep, so did Hikari.

AN: I figured Naruto was kinda needed more in my OC story, so him and Hikari made sence, besides seems she's gonna slowly become importent in Natsumi and Yushiro's life :3
