Ch.9

The next few days at school, Naruto and Hinata were the new talk of the school. They were known as the 'perfect eye candy couple'.

As Naruto and Hinata were walking around hand in hand afterschool, Sakura and Sasuke followed close behind.

Sakura looked at Sasuke for a moment then asked, "Who do you like?"

Sasuke looked at her, then he looked ahead, "Can't answer."

"Why?"

"Just… cant…"

Unfortunately, Naruto and Hinata heard their conversation. Naruto looked over his shoulder and saw Sasuke struggling.

"Hinata, I'll be right back," said Naruto as he let go of her hand and went to drag Sasuke somewhere.

When they were safely out of view and out of earshot, Naruto lightly slapped Sasuke's arm.

"Whats that for?" asked a confused Sasuke.

"Teme…" said Naruto, slightly angered, "Stop putting me before you! I can take care of myself too… Don't worry too much about me, I'll be fine. C'mon, you know you like Sakura! Just go for it, think of it as your day off. Okay?"

"But-"

"No buts!"

"Fine," said Sasuke as he was walking away, "Thank you, dobe."

Naruto smiled and walked after him.

After they regrouped with the girls, Naruto suggested to Hinata that he and Hinata go out alone on a date. Hinata happily accepted and she left with Naruto, leaving Sasuke and Sakura alone.

Naruto took Hinata's hand in his and smiled happily. Naruto took her to walk around the park. As they were walking, they were talking about their lives.

"I was always alone until I met Sasuke… He is my best friend and he is a brother to me," said Naruto as Hinata nodded in understanding.

"No one understood me. They always put too much pressure on me, and the only way to let out the stress was tell them to someone. Sakura was always there when I needed to talk, even when I didn't she was there by my side. She is like my sister," said Hinata.

They walked around for a few hours then when they got tired, they went to sit down at a bench. Naruto left for a minute to go buy them ice cream. While they were eating, ice cream was smeared right at the edge of Hinata's lips. Naruto smiled with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Hey Hinata?"

"Yeah?" she asked while looking at him.

Naruto smiled, "How does your ice cream taste like?"

Hinata looked at her ice cream and thought for a moment, "You want to try?" she asked while smiling and putting her ice cream out in front of her towards Naruto.

"Yes," Naruto nodded.

He leaned in and kissed Hinata's lips. Hinata was shocked, she's never been kissed before. When Naruto was about to pull back, he licked Hinata's lips where the ice cream smudge was.

"Mmmm, good," he said as he licked his lips.

"That… that was my first kiss," she said while touching her lips.

"Mines too."

"That's not fair… you got to taste my ice cream, I want to taste yours," Hinata pouted.

Naruto smiled and held out his ice cream. When Hinata was going to take a bite out of his ice cream, he pulled it back and smeared some all over his lips.

"Here, come taste it," he said teasingly.

"Are you challenging me, Mr. Uzumaki?" she asked playfully.

Naruto smiled, "Hmm… no, I thought you wanted to taste my ice cream. If you don't want to then okay," Naruto pouted.

When he was about to wipe his lips, his lips were attacked by Hinata's soft ones. After the kiss, she licked her own lips and closed her eyes.

"Mmm, yup. They're good too."

The couple sat on the bench until they finished their ice creams and left to continue walking.

"Soo… How was your life like back then?" asked Sakura.

Sakura and Sasuke were walking back home and talking to eachother about themselves.

"My life? Well, it was just like now. Always watching over Naruto."

Sakura looked at Sasuke and smiled, "Mines too. Always watching Hinata. But I don't mind, I like it. Hinata is a great person."

"Really?" asked Sasuke with an eyebrow up.

"Yeah," Sakura nodded.

When they got to the front of the apartments, Sasuke invited her over. When they got in, Sakura sat down on the couch while Sasuke went to get them drinks. When Sasuke came back he gave her a can of soda and she happily took it.

After a while of sitting, Sasuke was slowly going crazy sitting next to the pink haired beauty he liked.

"Sakura? Who do you like?" he asked eagerly.

"Who do I like?" asked Sakura, Sasuke nodded, "Well… I didn't know him long. In fact, he saved me when we first met. From that day, I admired him."

Sasuke thought for a minute. He knew she liked him, but he wanted her to tell him.

"Can you give me a name?" he asked as he scooted in closer.

Sakura blushed, "N-name?"

"Yes," Sasuke nodded.

Sakura cleared her throat, "Well," she said teasingly as she scooted in to fill in the gap between them, "He is sitting right next to me… I believe his name is Mr. Sasuke Uchiha."

That did it, Sasuke leaned in and kissed her right on the lips.

"I like you too, Miss. Haruno ."

Sakura blushed and touched her lips, "Really?"

Sasuke smirked, "Really, and…"

"And…?"

"willyougooutwithme?" he said fastly.

"What?" asked a confused Sakura.

"I said, will you go out with me…" he said while a small blush displayed on his cheeks.

Sakura blushed and nodded vigorously. Sasuke smirked and hugged her. They stayed cuddled together until Naruto and Hinata came in laughing. When they saw Sakura and Sasuke, they stopped. Then after they recovered from shock, they grinned.

"Congratulations!" they both said. Sakura blushed while Sasuke nodded.

The couples sat in the living room cuddled up with their partners until it was close to sunset. Hinata and Sakura were close to walking out the door until Naruto pulled her back into a hug.

"I had a wonderful day, Hinata, and it's all thanks to you," Naruto said as he played with her hair.

Hinata smiled, "I did too, thanks to you."

Naruto broke their embrace and kissed her passionately. Hinata was shocked for a second until she closed her eyes and kissed him back. After the kiss, they said their goodbyes and goodnights. Before they left though, Sakura was embraced by Sasuke and kissed on the cheek.
