Naruto and Hinata stood in the hospital lobby waiting to hear about Ino and to see Sakura. At the moment both Sakura and Tsunade where busy treating Ino's wounds.

"Are you Naruto-sensei?" asked a childlike voice behind them. Naruto turned around to see a girl with brown hair and dark yellow eyes. behind her was a girl that looked to be a Hyūga and a black haired brown eyed boy.

"And who are you all?" Naruto questioned back.

"We are Sakura-sensei's team, Team 11, I'm Kana, the Hyūga is Hikari, and the boy is Jotarou," answered the girl.

"Ah, yeah Sakura-chan spoke of you, to answer your question from earlier, yes I am, this is Hinata. Can I ask you why you all here?" asked Naruto.

"Sakura-sensei was supposed to train us, when she did come, we went to her apartment and saw that there were ANBU and the Konoha Police Force was there, it looked like the apartment caught fire, we were told that see was here, so we came straight here," explained Hikari.

I see," said Naruto, he was about to continue when Hinata spoke up.

"Sakura-chan spoke quite a lot about you three, she is completely fine, but unfortunately our friend Ino was there and was caught directly in the blast. Naruto-kun did you call Sasuke-san?" asked Hinata.

"Yeah, I sent a messenger fox. He said he will be here soon," answered Naruto.

"Who is Ino?" asked Jotarou.

"You baka you're a clan heir and you don't know who she is, I'm a civilian for god's sake, Yamanaka Ino is the heiress to the Yamanaka," lectured Kana.

"Haha, sorry, I forgot," said Jotarou.

"Of course you did," said Hikari.

"You all seem pretty close, you will do so much better than my team," said Naruto as he slumped.

"How come?" asked Hikari.

"Ah well Naruto-kun's team is exactly like his genin team, so it will take a long time before they actually call themselves teammates and work properly together," explained Hinata with a giggle, then suddenly Sasuke walked in and spotted them.

"Naruto!" shouted Sasuke, "How is she?"

Naruto straightened up, "I was able to talk to Sakura before they took her to surgery. She's got 3rd and 2nd degree burns as well as a lot of smoke in her lungs," said Naruto as he comforted Sasuke, who was sitting down shakily.

"I told her that I was too busy to spend time with her today and to go ask Sakura, oh god Naruto," said Sasuke as he began to cry.

"It's not your fault Sasuke, you shouldn't bet yourself up over this," said Naruto.

"But if I had agreed to spend time with her, she wouldn't have been in the hospital," said Sasuke.

"Sasuke, there is simply no way you could have predicted this, and blaming yourself wouldn't make into any better, all you can do is pray and hope that she is going to be alright," said Naruto.

"Oh god, her father is going to kill me Naruto," Sasuke said.

"Where is Inoichi-san, Sasuke-san?" asked Hinata.

"I had a member of the Konoha Police Force go and tell him," Answered Sasuke. Then a nurse walked up to them.

"They are out of surgery, Room 364," said the nurse, Naruto, Sasuke and Hinata went upstairs the room the nurse said.


Naruto met up with Sakura in the hallway while Hinata and Sasuke went into Ino's hospital room.

"Are you alright?" Naruto asked as he squeeze Sakura with his hug.

"Naruto, I'm alright, can you loosen your grip on me, I can't breathe," said Sakura gasping for air.

"Ah sorry," Naruto let go a little was only inches away from her face, his hot breath hit Sakura's lips making a shiver run down her spine.

Naruto leaned in and kissed Sakura, making her eyes go wide, before closing her eyes. Naruto licked her bottom lip for entrance and Sakura opened her mouth. Naruto and Sakura's tongues intertwined with each other in a battle for dominance, Naruto won and explored her mouth, syrup-coated anko dumping's, her favorite food. Sakura forced her way through and began exploring Naruto mouth and pushed him against the wall, his mouth tased like ramen, miso ramen to be exact. After exploring, they moved away from each other.

"Sakura, you can come stay at my place if you want to, I should go see Ino," Naruto said as he walked Ino room, he turned around and smiled, "I love you."

Those 3 words made Sakura's heart skip a beat in joy, "Love you too," Sakura said as she walked away to her students to take them to the training field.


Sasuke was holding Ino's hand as he sat next to her hospital bed and Hinata was standing in the doorway as she saw Naruto and Sakura kiss, while she was happy for Sakura, she was kind of upset that Naruto hadn't kissed her yet. Naruto saw her when he was pushed against wall and end the kiss after some time. They both bid farewell and Naruto walked into the room and stood next to Hinata.

"She is okay, I told you Sasuke," said Naruto, "Me and Hinata have to go, I will see you later at the council meeting," then Naruto pulled Hinata against him by wrapping an arm around Hinata's waist, making her blush furiously before disappearing in a yellow flash.


Naruto arrived in the Namikaze-Uzumaki clan compound main house's master bedroom, "Hinata, I'm sorry if I made you upset in anyway, I really am," he said as he put their foreheads together, "I love you just as much as I love Sakura."

"I won't be upset anymore if you do something for me," said Hinata as she drew circles on Naruto's chest.

"Oh, and what would that," said Naruto as he pulled her closer.

"Kiss me," Hinata simply said.

Naruto smiled before catching her lips in a kiss, Hinata licked his bottom lip for enter and Naruto opened his mouth and his push her tongue in without any resistance, she explored everywhere, and she wasn't surprised with the fact that Naruto tasted like miso ramen. Hinata continued exploring before she was pushed against the wall by Naruto who started to be explored Hinata's mouth, which to him tasted like cinnamon rolls, he smiled before pulling away.

"We should wait until we go further," said Naruto.

"Alright," Hinata sounded a little dejected, Naruto lifted her head up by her chin and smiled.

"I'm sorry, how about I pick up tomorrow for a date, just you and me," said Naruto. Hinata stared into his big blue eyes, they looked so apologizing, it hurt her chest looking at them.

"You don't have to apologize Naruto-kun, stop looking at me like that, it hurts me," said Hinata.

"Alright," said Naruto he kissed her once more before she left the house. Kai appeared out of nowhere and stood next to Naruto.

"You really love them," said Kai.

"I really do," said Naruto as he sat on his bed.
