Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Hinata and Naruto ❯ At the hot springs ( Chapter 1 )

Disclaimer: It's probably safe to say I don't own Naruto…it was safe I'm still ali-*get's shot* I…I don't own…*cough*…the elephant…*dies*

 

AN: Okay so this is the first in a series of Hinata/Naruto one shots. If you have any suggestions for situations for me please tell me. Most of these will take place in the time between Tsunade being Hokage, and Sasuke defecting. I like Tsunade as the Hokage. I'm not really sure how the Toton Jutsu works but, oh well it's fan fiction. I'm not the best writer on this site, if you have criticisms feel free to make them. But if you flame me…why am I beginning that with but…if you flame me then people are gonna feel sorry for me and encourage me…you'll just be wasting your own time.

“You want me to what?!” Naruto yelled. He was in shock at what his sensei had just suggested. He had been ecstatic about learning the toton jutsu (Transparent Escape technique) but the Sanin's training method was out of the question.

 

Jiraiya sighed. “Look if you can't even handle this training than how can I teach you more powerful techniques?”

 

“But sneaking into a women's hot-spring! This is just you being a pervert again!” Naruto said accusingly.

 

“I've explained this. It will put you in high stress situation, you will be working on stealth something you really need to work on, and I won't even be with you. How is that perverted?” Jiraiya said calmly, Naruto really needed more faith in him.

 

“Well, yeah but…”

 

“You just need to run in run out. You don't even have to look.” He reached into his pocket and removed a camera. “And take a picture so you can prove you did it.”

 

“Aha! I knew it!” Naruto yelled sounding annoyed.

 

“Will you knock that off?! It doesn't have to be of a naked girl or anything. Just get one wrapped in a towel or something.” Jiraiya said rolling his eyes. “Do this and I'll teach you something incredible.” He said dangling the fool proof bait in front of Naruto's nose.

 

“Like what?” Naruto asked suspiciously.

 

“Uh…like turning someone into a frog.” Jaraiya said suddenly. “Or the Barrier Technique…look I know a lot of techniques. But first you have to prove to me you can handle this.” He said finally.

 

“Well…I suppose it could be alright…but after you see the picture, I'm going to burn it. I don't think I want to know what you'd do with it if I let you keep it.” Naruto said figuring that would make the training seem less…wrong.

 

“Deal.” The Sanin smiled and shook his students hand. “You have twenty-four hours. Now then time for a little research.” Jiraiya laughed and walked off with a stupid grin on his face.

 

`Okay, I can do this. Just run in take a picture run out. In, picture, out. In, picture, out.' He repeated in his head as he walked to the hot-springs. He came to a stop a short distance away and looked around. No one was watching him. “Toton Jutsu!” Naruto looked down and saw that he was invisible. `In…picture…out…' He though as he shakily made his way in. He slowly made his way to the women's bath's. There were a few to pick from but only one seemed to be occupied. He slowly eased the curtain, that blocked it from view, open and stepped in. `Oh crap!' Naruto had just walked in on Sakura, Ino, and Tenten bathing.

 

“Ah, this is heaven.” Sakura sighed.

 

“You can say that again.” Ino smiled.

 

`P-picture…in…out…' Naruto thought as he shakily raised the camera. `Pic…ture…' He raised it up and prepared to take the photo…when he realized that the three Kunoichi were all looking right at him. He had been so panicked that the technique had failed.

 

“Naruto!” Sakura growled. “I am going to kill you!” She yelled and reached for a towel. Ino did the same. Tenten just…floated there staring at him.

 

“Wait I can explain!” Naruto yelled and turned. He ran full speed outside and ran into one of the empty baths. `Oh not again!' Apparently the bath was not empty it just had one very quiet occupant.

 

“N-n-naruto…” Hyuga Hinata stammered when she saw the blonde run in. The only thing that kept her from fainting was the knowledge that, if she did, she would drown.

 

“Hi-hinata…um…I…I didn't mean.” Naruto was terrified that she would scream and draw the others to him but she just stared at him with wide eyes. She had also turned a shade of red that would probably kill anyone else.

 

“Check the other baths!” Sakura's voice rang out from behind him.

 

Hinata saw the fear in his eyes and somehow found her voice. “H-hide…I-I'll d-do s-s-something.” She stuttered.

 

Naruto looked in shock at the brunette. `Why is she doing this for me?' He didn't have time to ponder this before using the toton jutsu again and moving to a corner. “Thank you.” He whispered.

 

Hinata jumped when she heard his voice but whispered. “Your w-welcome.” Just then Sakura ran in ad scanned the room.

 

“Hinata, have you seen Naruto?” The pink haired girl asked.

 

“N-naruto? What do you mean?” Hinata asked trying to look confused.

 

“The little pervert was trying to take pictures of us in the bath!” Sakura growled angrily.

 

“He is n-not.” Hinata said in a voice just above a whisper.

 

“What?” Sakura asked not having heard the girl.

 

“He isn't a pervert.” Hinata said a little louder.

 

“Hinata, he was trying…”

 

“He must have had a reason.” Hinata said sounding almost angry, or as angry as she could sound. “He is not a pervert.” She said stubbornly. “And I w-wouldn't t-t-tell you even if I had seen him.” Sakura looked in shock at the Hyuga girl. This was the first time she had seen Hinata glare at anybody. Not that it was particularly threatening but it was surprising. “I don't care what you do to me.”

 

Sakura sighed and massaged her temples. “Hinata, what he did was wrong.”

 

“Y-you wouldn't care if it had…if it had been Sasuke.” Hinata said trying to remain defiant. `I won't betray Naruto.'

 

Sakura was taken aback by this but now that Sasuke had bee dragged into this it was time for her to get mad. “Sasuke would never do that.”

 

“Neither would Naruto.” Hinata said adamant in her opinion. `Naruto must have had a reason.'

 

“Okay, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it was someone that used transformation to look like Naruto. Did you see anyone?” Sakura asked. `Maybe Naruto wouldn't do it. I mean he's not that bad. But then again…'

 

“No.” Hinata said simply. “No one came in here.”

 

Sakura watched the girl carefully. But even if he had come in here it wasn't like he could hide. `Maybe she's stalling so he can get away.' Sakura thought to herself. “You're right I'd never turn in Sasuke.” Sakura smiled at the girl and walked out.

 

Hinata activated her Byakugan and watched her leave. When she was at a safe distance she turned to Naruto. “She's gone.” She said softly.

 

“Okay.” He ended the technique and showed that he had kept his eyes covered. Hinata giggled when she saw how bad he was blushing. “Thanks Hinata. She would've killed me if she caught me.”

 

Hinata blushed and nodded, then when she realized he couldn't see that said. “Y-y-you're welcome.”

 

“Well I should probably being goi…” Naruto crashed into a wall and fell on his ass. Hinata giggled again.

 

“Um…Na-nar-naruto…if you want, you can uncover your eyes.” Hinata said blushing even deeper. She didn't want him to hurt himself, and she could cover herself…if she wanted to.

 

“Are you sure?” He asked as he sat up, she was being nice to him so he didn't think she would hit him or anything. But still…

 

“Y-yes.” She said shakily. Her heart was beating faster than what should be humanly possible. `Naruto is in the room as me, he's talking to me, and he's going to look at me…' She couldn't mentally finish that sentence.

 

Naruto slowly lowered his hand. He was making an effort to stare at the ground. Hinata had done so much for him and he didn't want to offend her. “Sorry about this.” He said softly.

 

“W-w-why were you here anyway?”

 

Naruto froze at this question. It didn't sound like she was chastising him, just curious. “Well…that technique I used so Sakura couldn't see me…for training I was supposed to go into the women's hot springs and take a picture without them seeing me…sensei's a weird guy…and well I wanted to get someone in a swimsuit or with a towel or…I know this sounds like a lie…”

 

“I-I believe you.” She stuttered. “Naruto you would n-n-never d-do anything like that without a reason.” Naruto raised his head at this. Hinata was smiling at him sweetly. She was still bright red and had turned redder when he looked up. “If…if you want you could take a picture of me…b-b-but don't let Kakashi sensei keep it, please.”

 

“Oh…no, no, no, no, no, it wasn't Kakashi sensei. It was a different guy, his names Jiraiya.” Naruto said with a little laugh. `Well at least that's been taken care of. She never would've looked at sensei the same.' He suddenly stopped and looked at her. “You would let me do that?” He asked realizing what she had said.

 

“Y-yes…well, if you wanted to…” She said looking down. `He'd never want to take a picture of me. He'd want someo…'

 

“You're really nice Hinata.” Naruto said with a grin. “Why are you doing all this for me?”

 

“Eh?” Hinata stared wide eyed at the blonde ninja. “W-well…I…you…um…you see…” She turned the deepest shade of red that she had ever been.

 

“Are you alright?” Naruto asked looking concerned. “You're all red. Do you have a fever?” Naruto gently laid the back of his hand against her head.

 

`Naruto's touching me!'

 

“Hmm…you feel a little warm. Maybe you should go home and rest.” Naruto didn't want to keep her there if she was ill, and went to stand up.

 

“W-wait!” Hinata said a lot louder than she meant to. “Y-you don't have to g-g-go.” She said nervously. “C-could you stay and talk with me some more?” She asked nervously. “I don't think I'm sick. Maybe I've just been in the hot water too long.”

 

“You…you want me to stay?” Naruto asked, confused. He wasn't used to people being this social with him.

 

“Mm-hmm.” She nodded and pulled herself out of the water. Naruto blushed and stared at the ground again while she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself. She sat down next to him and smiled. “Thank you. Sorry, it's just…I really…really like…talking to you.” She said blushing. “You're very nice…a-and I r-really…admire you.”

 

“Thanks Hinata.” Naruto said cheerfully.

 

“Uh…would you like to take that picture now?” Hinata asked. “And maybe…after that…we could go t-to…ichiraku ramen.” She asked nervously.

 

“That sounds like fun.” He said with a smile. `I've never talked to her this much before.' He stood up and held up his camera.

 

“Wh-what do you want me to do?” Hinata asked nervously. `Naruto is going to have a picture of me! I wonder if he'll keep it.'

 

“Do whatever you want just make it look like you can't see me.” Hinata gave him a confused look. “I'm supposed to be invisible.”

 

“Oh…y-yeah.” She blushed and turned her back to him. After a moments internal struggle she let her towel fall.

 

Naruto gasped as he saw the girl do this. She looked beautiful sitting there blushing slightly, turned just enough to hide her chest from him, the towel wrapped around her waist. “…O-okay j-just…hold that pose for a second.” He snapped the photo and Hinata turned slightly to look at him.

 

“Was th-that okay?” Okay Hinata asked as she covered herself and stood.

 

“It was great!” Naruto exclaimed making the girls blush yet again. “You're really cute Hinata.”

 

“Cu…cut…” Hinata was stunned by this and took a step back. Unfortunately she took that step into water. She lost her balance and threw out her arms, dropping her towel in the process. Naruto dashed forward and caught her by the arm. He pulled her to him and wrapped his arm around her. `Naruto is…he's…' Hinata's brain shut off and her body took over. She wrapped her arms around him and sighed softly. Naruto was a little shocked by this but went along with it. He gently stroked her hair with his free hand. The other was around her waist.

 

Naruto felt her trembling slightly in his arms, he looked down at her with a warm smile. She sheepishly returned it. Without knowing what he was doing, without even thinking, his lips made contact with hers. He saw her eyes widen, but she returned the kiss.

 

Hinata was in ecstasy. Naruto was kissing her, holding her. She tensed as she felt a wet probing at her lips. `Th-that's his t…' She parted her lips and aloud the intrusion. His tongue lightly ran over hers trying to encourage her to join in. She moaned softly and tried to mimic his movements. It was a rather clumsy kiss but to them it was perfect.

 

If it lasted a minute or a day, they didn't know. But it was nowhere near long enough. They broke and Naruto smiled at the girl. “That was great.” He breathed. Hinata seemed to have lost her ability to speak and nodded excitedly. He held her to him and reveled in the feeling of her body against his.

 

“N-naruto?” Hinata timidly looked up at the boy holding her. “I-I really want t-t-to t-tel you…”

 

“Hinata, I think I love you.” Naruto said softly.

 

Hinata froze and smiled at him. “I love you, too. Naruto…I've always loved you.” She felt tears welling up in her eyes, and wiped them away in embarrassment. “Why am I crying?” She said annoyed. “I'm sorry I just.” Naruto put a finger to her lips, and kissed her cheek.

 

“Shh, It's alright.” He whispered softly in her ear. She turned her head and kissed him again. She was more adventurous this time and ran her tongue between his lips playfully before…

 

“Ahem!” Both genin turned to see the owner of the hot springs glaring at them with her hands on her hips. “And what the hell are you two doing?”

 

“Uh…” Naruto was at a loss for words.

 

Hinata on the other hand recovered quicker. “Isn't this the mixed bath?”

 

“They're down the hall. This is the women only bath.” The women said looking annoyed.

 

“Oops, sorry.” Naruto said with the most innocent smile he could manage.

 

“Uh-huh. Well alright just don't let it happen again.”

 

“We should go.” Hinata said with a small smile. She began to get dressed and blush as Naruto watched her.

“So kid you got a picture for me?” Jiraiya asked excitedly.

 

Naruto rolled his eyes. He and Hinata had just sat down to ichiraku and the pervy sage had to show up. “No, you didn't give me any film.” Naruto said sounding annoyed as he handed the camera to Jiraiya.

 

“What?” Jiraiya looked and saw that there was no film in the camera. “That's not right. I could've sworn…well, alright tomorrow.” Jaraiya sighed and went off to restock on film.

 

“Think they've developed our pictures yet?” Naruto whispered softly.

 

“It was a one hour photo.” She whispered back.

 

“Okay just one more bowl of ramen.”
