CCNote: Some of you are worried that I'm dropping Becoming an Uchiha. I'm not, I promise. These snippets take 30mins tops to go from mere thought to completely edited. It's just a good writing exercise. BaU takes waaaaay longer to write and there's an entire detailed outline laid out from start to finish. This doesn't even have an outline lol. As always BaU will be updated at least once a week unless something comes up. I only update BaU more often if I have more time on my hands which at the moment I don't. I gotta do real work for my coins sometimes! Anyway, ENJOY!
Welcome Home
How rude could you be?
Hinata glared at the front door which had slammed shut hours ago. She didn't appreciate his company, nor did she find humor in his blunt statements. Sakura had always described the Uchiha as being a perfect gentleman but he most certainly was not! She let out an indignant huff before turning back to the kitchen. She needed to pack up her onigiri to bring to the academy, focusing on the poor behavior of others was going to make her late. Quickly she pulled out plastic containers from the fridge and set them on top of a lavender cloth on the counter. Just as she began to wrap them up, a tanned hand slid over her own and a hard frame pressed against her back.
"Na-Naruto-kun!" she squeaked and tried to turn around to face him but another firm hand pressed against her hip to keep her in place.
When had he gotten home? She didn't even hear him come in!
Her fiancé buried his face in the crook of her neck, his nose pressing firmly against her skin. He inhaled deeply before letting out a slow, tired breath.
"I'm back."
Hinata smiled and leaned back against his chest. She could feel the waves of chakra that radiated from him and felt comfort in that sensation. It was really him this time. All thoughts of Sasuke's visit flew from her mind as well as the tears she'd shed last night. Tears that had lasted well into the morning. All that mattered now was that Naruto was with her.
She loved him…and he…he loved her as well.
Smiling, Hinata turned in his arms and was greeted by sleepy, half-lidded blue eyes. She gently caressed his whiskered cheek and he leaned into her hand.
"Welcome home."
