As the last rays of the setting sun painted the sky in hues of crimson and gold, Hinata from the Naruto series found herself standing outside the lingerie shop, her heart racing and her palms sweating. It was Christmas Eve, and she had embarked on a mission to surprise her girlfriend Rukia from the Bleach series with an intimate gift. The thought of seeing the look on Rukia's face when she opened the door to find Hinata standing there, dressed in the most alluring lingerie she could find, sent shivers down her spine.

With a deep breath, Hinata pushed open the door and stepped into the shop, her eyes immediately drawn to the array of delicate lace and satin garments on display. The saleswoman, a pretty young woman with sparkling eyes and a welcoming smile, approached her. "May I help you find something special today?" she asked, her voice soft and melodic.

Hinata swallowed hard and nodded, trying to gather her thoughts. "I'm looking for something... really sexy," she managed to stammer out, her cheeks flushing a deep shade of red. The saleswoman chuckled lightly and led her over to a section of the shop filled with an assortment of seductive lingerie sets.

As Hinata browsed through the selection, her eyes widened in excitement at the sight of each new piece. She picked up a black lace bra and panty set, intrigued by the delicate details and the way it clung to the mannequin's body. The saleswoman watched as Hinata's fingers traced the lace, her expression thoughtful.

"That's a lovely set," she said softly, stepping closer to Hinata. "But have you considered something a bit more... adventurous?" She gestured towards a red satin babydoll with black lace trim, the skirt flowing around the mannequin's legs like a flame.

Hinata gasped, her eyes widening in delight at the sight of the daring ensemble. She could just imagine Rukia's reaction to seeing her wear something so bold and sensual. "I think I found what I'm looking for," she breathed, reaching out to touch the fabric.

As they made their way to the checkout counter, Hinata couldn't help but feel a wave of nervous anticipation wash over her. What if Rukia didn't like it? What if she thought it was too revealing or inappropriate? But then she reminded herself of all the times Rukia had expressed admiration for her courage and confidence. Maybe this was just the kind of surprise that would make her girlfriend's heart race with excitement.

The saleswoman rang up the purchase and handed Hinata the bag with a knowing smile. "I'm sure she'll love it," she whispered conspiratorially. Hinata couldn't help but return the smile, feeling a rush of gratitude towards the woman for helping her make such a bold choice.

As she made her way back home, Hinata's mind was filled with anticipation. She couldn't wait to see the look on Rukia's face when she opened the door to find her standing there, dressed in the daring red satin babydoll. The thought made her heart race with excitement and nervousness.

When she finally arrived at their shared apartment, Hinata took a deep breath to calm her nerves. She quickly changed into the lingerie set, admiring how it clung to her body, accentuating her curves. She took one last look in the mirror, checking to make sure everything was perfect.

With a trembling hand, she retrieved the small box from her bag, carefully wrapping it in red and white paper and attaching a bright bow. The box contained a note she had written earlier, expressing her love and appreciation for Rukia, and how much she was looking forward to spending this special night together.

As the clock struck midnight, Hinata nervously made her way to the living room where Rukia was sitting by the Christmas tree, engrossed in a book. The sight of her girlfriend, dressed in cozy pajamas, made Hinata's heart skip a beat. She cleared her throat and knelt down beside Rukia, presenting the box with a shaky hand.

"Rukia, I have a surprise for you," she said, her voice trembling with excitement. "Merry Christmas, sweetheart."

Rukia looked up from her book, her eyes widening in surprise when she saw Hinata kneeling beside her, dressed in the most alluring lingerie she had ever seen. "Hinata, you look... stunning," she whispered, her heart racing in her chest.

Hinata smiled shyly, her cheeks flushing a deep shade of red. "Thank you, Rukia. I wanted to make tonight special for us." She carefully placed the box in Rukia's lap, her fingers brushing against Rukia's soft skin.

Rukia's heart skipped a beat as she looked down at the box, her curiosity piqued. Slowly, she undid the bow and opened the box, revealing the note inside. Her eyes misted over as she read the words of love and appreciation written by Hinata. She looked up at Hinata, her expression filled with emotion.

Hinata's heart raced as she waited for Rukia to react. She couldn't help but feel nervous and excited all at once. The air between them seemed charged with anticipation and love. Rukia set the note aside, her fingers lingering on the paper for a moment before she turned her attention back to the lingerie. Her eyes widened even further as she took in the daring red satin babydoll.

"Hinata," Rukia whispered, her voice filled with awe and admiration. "You look incredible." She reached out and gently traced the lace along Hinata's collarbone, her touch sending shivers down Hinata's spine. "I've never seen anything so beautiful."
