Finding Hinata

By: Kagura-chan15

Naruto doesn't belong to me in any way. This fan fiction was purely fan made.

Hey, newbie here. This is my first posted fan fiction and it is based off my handwritten one I have in my notebook. Please don't kill me if you don't like it. Well on to the NaruHina.

Slurp, "Your ramen is always good old man!"

Hinata comes up to the ramen stall not noticing that Naruto is there. She sits down and orders the classic chicken ramen. Naruto looks up from his ramen bowl saying, "Hinata-san, you eat ramen here too?"

"O-oh Naruto kun you're here too?" OMG why didn't I notice he was there?

"Hinata-san you okay?...Your face is getting red."

All Hinata does is nod her head. Oh no my face!

"Anyway, Hinata-san if you like ramen so much, then why don't you go with me to test out ramen at this new place that just opened up?"

"S-sure Naruto-kun."

gulp "Well, I'll meet you at the water fountain tomorrow around five-thirty."

"O-ok….Naruto-kun"

Naruto walks off, while Hinata just sits there in shock.

OMG he asked me out!

"Uh, Hinata-san, Watcha doing?"

"N-nothing Sakura-san, just eating ramen"

"Spacey aren't we….I wonder why hmmm….was Naruto-kun just here?"

"W-why do you ask?"

"Well your face is bright red, you were staring into space, and even though it is hard to tell, you seem happy… what did he say?"

"H-he asked me if I wanted to go to the new ramen place with him tomorrow night for dinner. To try it out."

Cha! He won't stalk me anymore!

Sakura's triumphant look on her face scares Hinata a little bit.

"Ano, Sakura-san, you okay?"

"Huh? Yeah, just thinking happy thoughts."

"O-okay, well I got to go, I have training with my Otou-san soon."

"See ya, Hinata-san. Good luck on your date." Sakura winks and walks off.

Hinata walks home with Naruto-kun on her mind.

The water fountain is beautiful in the moonlight, and the stars are bright tonight. It's so peaceful.

"Oi Hinata-san, you're here early."

"N-naruto-kun! I didn't know you were there!" (Kaga- peacefulness gone…jkjk)

"Sorry Hinata-san I wanted to be here early so I wouldn't be late"

He d-didn't want to be late. Inner blush. "O-ok should we go in now?"

"Yeah, it smells really good out here, not as good as the old man's but it'll pass." Naruto's famous carefree grin appears upon his face. He grabs her hand and dashes in with her dragging along behind him.

I think I am gonna faint...

They sit and order two bowls of chicken ramen. As Naruto gobbles down his food Hinata eats slowly and gracefully. Throughout the meal there was complete silence. After Naruto finishes he glances over at Hinata.

Why did I never notice before how gentle she looks, with her pale eyes and smooth skin and perfect figure, she's even bigger that Sakura-san…wait, why am I thinking this? Dammit, I'm starting to think like the pervy sage. Naruto mentally smacks his head. Sakura-san was okay, but she always hits me if I come near her. But, Hinata-san just blushes and looks down at her feet…like Sakura-san does around Sasuke-kun…all the time, and it's no secret that she likes him…so, why does Hinata act that way around me?

"N-naruto-kun are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm all right. I was just thinking about some things. Let's get out of here, it's a little crowded."

"O-okay."

Naruto and Hinata walk side by side under the sakura tree arch. It was put there for the upcoming spring. Not a word is said between them until…

"Hinata-san, wanna sit down? You look a little tired."

"S-sure Naruto-kun." It's all because of the trainings Otou-san worked me through. They were a lot harder today.

"Hey look, there's a bench. Let's sit there." Her Otou-san probably worked her like a slave in training today. She looks exhausted.

"T-thank you Naruto-kun."

"You're welcome Hinata-san."

"Ano….N-naruto-kun. Why did you ask me to go with you to the ramen place?"

"Well, you reminded me of someone I met only one time before."

"W-who?"

"Well, do you remember the mission I almost screwed up? And when I saw that beautiful girl at the water fall with the awesome jutsu?"

"H-hai."

"You reminded me of her."

URK! He remembers! Blush. "O-oh I know her myself."

"Really?!"

"H-hai." He wants to meet her, he likes her, but he doesn't know it was me.

"What's her name?"

"Ano…it's…he's gonna hate me….it's H-hinata."

"H-hinata?..." Then it dawns on him "….That was…you?!" Naruto of course had a surprised face.

Great he hates me. Look at his face he doesn't think it's true. Hinata mumbles "T-thanks f-for the ramen….It was good." Hinata then turns and runs off tears streaming from her eyes.

Naruto recovers "M-matte Hinata-san!"

I should have never told him. I saw his face he was surprised and he didn't think it was true.

The chase continues…..

"Matte Hinata-chan!!" Naruto shouted.

Hinata hearing him say chan stops for a minute, long enough for naruto to catch up to her. As she tries to run off again he grabs her in a fierce hug.

"N-naruto-kun!" What is he doing? It looked as if he hated me, was disgusted by me. Why is he hugging me?

"Hinata-chan……." …I think I …

"Hinata-san are you there?"

Naruto hadn't realized that they were in the ally next to the Hyuga residence. Naruto swore under his breath.

"Hinata-chan see you later, thanks for going with me to the new ramen place. Bye."

Naruto then heads home…

What was Naruto-kun trying to tell me?

"Hinata-san!"

"I-I'm here."

Hinata enters the house and goes into her room, falling asleep with a slight blush on her face.

The next morning she woke up to the all-day training session with her Otou-san. She entered the dojo with dread in every step. I wonder how many bruises I will have today. She thought sarcastically.

Naruto woke up after a weird dream involving him and a dark blue haired woman saying "I do." What was that dream about anyway? Oi, damn fox. How do you know when you like someone?

Well lets see…Kyuubi pantomimes opening a book and the reads the title. Idiots guide to love... Chapter One: Q and A…Do you think about her all the time? Yes. Do you dream about her all the time? Well yeah I just did. Last question… did you almost kiss her last night? Ano…never mind I will figure it out on my own. Naruto starts pacing around his apartment continually all day thinking, a rarity on its own, thinking about his relationship with Hinata. Hinata-san is always nice, never hits me, when I don't even try to be funny she laughs. She's always blushing and fainting around me and she always stutters. Also, ever since she told me that it was her at the water fall, when ever I think of her my heart races. I-I think I lo-

Hey newbie again, sorry about the semi hanger but I wanted it to be like that. I have worked hard and finally finished part one (it is 3 am and I will be dead tomorrow if someone finds out how late I was up). Oh well I just couldn't stop typing and I wanted to finish at least part one and start part two. Oh and I would like to give thanks to my beta Momiji-kun for putting up with my bad grammer.

Japenese:

Ano- sort of like ummm

Otou san- father

Hai-yes

Sakura- cherry blossoms/trees

Matte- Wait

Hope you enjoyed
