Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Hinata's Secret Life ❯ The Morning after ( Chapter 15 )

The Morning After

 

Hinata's body became awake with the incoming rising sun. Knowing that down was coming Hinata tried to shut it out by burrowing into the warmth of her pillow, tightening her arms as she went. Then realized that her pillow never moved before, and never before had she heard the soft beating of a heart, and the soft breathing of someone. Opening her eyes Hinata was at first unaware of her surroundings, then noticed her pillow was actually a chest, albeit a very nice defined chest. Lifting her head up she looked up into the face of one Naruto Uzumaki, sleeping peacefully.

 

Feeling Naruto's arm tighten around her waist Hinata slowly lowered her head back to his chest, thinking about all that had happened that night. Naruto had claimed Ramen and told her he loved her. He loved her, of all people, the former failure. Smiling a big smile and feeling a little bit giddy, Hinata decided she had only an hour before Ramen woke up wanting breakfast, and she needed a shower.

 

Untangling herself from Naruto, moving softly as not to wake him, she took one last look at his body before slowly covering him back up. Looking in the mirror Hinata saw a few small bruises from Naruto's mouth the night before. Looking at her outfit on the floor, there was no way she could wear it without showing what they had done. Deciding that she just couldn't do that she opened Naruto's top drawn pulling out a pair of boxers and a dark orange t-shirt. Slowly closing the drawer Hinata made her way to the shower.

 

Undoing her braid and pulling her hair out of its tie, Hinata turned on the water to let it heat up before stepping in. Feeling the soreness of her legs and muscles Hinata let the hot water soothe away any discomfort. With body cleaned and hair washed Hinata was ready to face the day.

 

Stepping out of the shower Hinata quick rung the water out of her hair before wrapping it up in a towel, then toweled dry the rest of her body. Pulling on Naruto's boxers Hinata noticed that they barely stayed on her hips and rode lower than her normal shorts, yet made her feel feminine. Grabbing the shirt, she took a big whiff of the smell noting that it smelled of Naruto, and then she pulled it on gladly noticing it covered the lower part of her body that the boxers were showing.

 

Taking the towel out of her hair she began looking threw drawers until she came across a brush and began to unravel the knots in her hair. Considering the time it took Hinata to brush her hair and shower she figured she had about twenty minutes before Ramen awoken wanting breakfast, she really didn't have time to put her hair up. Stepping out of the bathroom Hinata made her way to the kitchen to search the kitchen for something to make for breakfast.

 

Naruto woke up to the sounds of banging in the kitchen. Throwing off his covers he was about to go to attack the intruder until he noticed he was naked, and clothes thrown all over the floor. Remembering what had happened last night Naruto, with a big grin, grabbed a pair of boxers, shorts and a t-shirt then quickly got dressed.

Leaving his bedroom Naruto began to smell something sweet cooking and a soft humming sound. Slowly making his way to t he kitchen he was about to enter when he was startled by what he seen. In this kitchen, with her back to him was a woman with long loose dark hair that reached the tops of her thighs, looking like she was wearing nothing, humming. When she reached over to take something out of the oven, her hair moved, showing that she was wearing a pair of his boxers and one of his t-shirts. Seeing Hinata with her hair down, barefoot, in his clothes, hit Naruto in the chest hard. He knew no matter what he had to keep this wonderful woman and protect her for all eternity.

 

Watching her place what looked like to be cinnamon rolls onto a plate and began icing them. With her back still towards Naruto singing and swaying softly Naruto found himself behind Hinata wrapping his arms around her pulling her close. Placing his head on her shoulder Naruto then said “good morning beautiful” noticing the small blush on her face.

 

Hinata with a smile turned in Naruto's arms and kissed him lovingly on the lips “good morning yourself. Breakfast is about ready if you are hungry.” Tightening his arms around Hinata and kissing her longingly on the lips said “I'm hungry but not for breakfast. I am sure it's something only you can provide.” Before Naruto could go in for another kiss you could hear a door slamming and footsteps running towards them.

 

“Mooooom, I'm hungry what's for breakfast. Where's dad?” Ramen said stepping into the kitchen.

 

Naruto upon hearing Ramen coming into the kitchen released Hinata and turned to look at Ramen and smiled “Hey, how would you like to help me set the table?” Ramen's eyes lighted up with joy at seeing his father asking him for help nodded happily. Naruto grabbed three plates and handed them to Ramen to set at the table. Then took out three glasses before getting the milk out of the fridge, and took them to the table. Hinata grabbed the cinnamon rolls, and some napkins and followed also.

 

During breakfast Naruto asked “I don't have a mission today so what do you guys want to do?” looking at Hinata and then Ramen feeding Kitsune some left over pieces of cinnamon rolls.

 

“I need to get some new clothes” said Hinata “also I have to check on Malina to double check on her. She's able to give birth any day. Then I should make sure Tsunade knows that Gaara is coming to visit, and where she wants him to stay, and also see what my work scheduling will be.”

 

Naruto said an eyebrow “Gaara's coming? Why is that, and how would you know instead of Tsunade?”

 

Ramen said “Uncle Gaara is coming to see me battle for my class placement at the academy. I wrote and asked him a few days ago. Dad?” Ramen said looking at Naruto “will you help me and Kitsune train, for my placement please?” Ramen asked giving Naruto a sad look, hoping to get him to do as he pleases.

 

Naruto took one look at the puppy dog look and said “yes I will train you, but I have to know where on earth did you get Kitsune? Last I knew foxes can't be trained? Uncle Gaara, when did that happen?”

 

Ramen said “I've had him since I was three. He's my summons. Uncle Gaara is so cool. Mommy fixed him when we saw him, right mommy?”

 

“Summons” said Naruto “where on earth did you get a summons for foxes? There isn't one and I thought I would know with Kyuubi and all,” then looked at Ramen not sure if he knew.

 

Catching Naruto's look Hinata said “he knows, don't worry about it. On Ramen's third birthday a fox showed up at the house we were at and dropped off a Summoning scroll. Funny thing is there were no other names on it but it said for both Ramen and I to sign it. Once we did it disappeared in a puff of smoke, and then did the seals. Kitsune came out for Ramen and has been here ever since. They are pretty much inseparable. I have one but I rarely use her. Now as for `Uncle Gaara' we had seen him in Musinick, where I fixed his seal. Since they were like family to me during the time you had left all those years ago to train with Jaraiya, it's only natural he should be his uncle. Although I am sure you have realized by now Kitsune is no ordinary fox? Are you Kitsune?” Hinata asked the fox sitting by Ramen.

 

“No I am not, although it is a pleasure to finally meet the King of the Demon Foxes.” Kitsune said moving to stand by Naruto “It's been an honor sire, to watch over the young prince.” Kitsune said bowing. That's when Naruto noticed that Kitsune had three-tails instead of one, and that she looked a lot like Kyuubi.

 

`The pleasure is all mine Kitsune” Kyuubi said to the fox `I'm glad your taken care of the young prince. Remember if you need any help I am always there to help.”

 

Naruto hearing Kyuubi reply stood up and said “excuse me I will return” before making his way to the bedroom shutting the door behind him.

 

`Alright Kyuubi what the hell is going on? You gave them the summons, and then you knew about Ramen how did you know?”

 

“Of course I knew about him. I was there when he was conceived, and I was there when he was born. Why did you think I was resting a few weeks around May 10th? I needed the energy to be there when he was born and to deliver his birthday gifts.”

 

`You knew and you never told me? You bastard how did you know and I didn't?”

 

“If you really tried, you could have found out, or did you forget of Moronic-container of mine, that you have access to my powers and my memory. He's got your blood in him, which I am also a part of. Therefore he is part of me also, and demon foxes can find there own, at an expense.”

 

`My son has part of your blood? What about Hinata does she know?

 

“She figured it out at birth, but then being `our' Mate she is not without power.”

 

`What do you mean, she is not without power?”

 

`She has the ability to call on some of my chakra if needed.”

 

`Why did you do all this Kyuubi? I don't get it why?'

 

“Think of it as a parting gift.”

 

`What do you mean parting gift?”

 

“I'm dieing Kit. Your body has been slowly absorbing my chakra as its own. You've been able to hit eight-tails and still maintain control. When I die you will get the ninth, making you the new King of Demon Foxes. I have roughly two weeks left until I am fully absorbed. At that time you will absorb all of my power and jitsus. That's why I haven't been trying to take control lately.”

 

“Kyuubi your dying I don't know what to say.”

 

“Don't get all sentimental on me now Ass-hole, just promise to take care of our family for me. While I may not like you I do like them. Now go back out there and spend time with them. You just got them back. I am going to bed. I didn't get enough sleep after last night activities.'

 

`KYUUBI, STAY OUT OF THE BEDROOM”

 

“HAHAHA night kid”

 

Taking in the conversation Naruto headed out back to his family, to begin the day.

 

Hinata after finishing the dishes grabbed her clothes and headed back to the Uchiha complex to check on Malina while Ramen and Naruto headed for Training Ground Three to see what kind of training Ramen needed.

 

Hinata walking in the Uchiha complex was stopped as soon as she walked in the door. Malina who had been waiting for her had stopped her the minute she came in the door but before she could scold her she looked at Hinata's clothes and down hair and said “you didn't.”

Hinata raised an eyebrow at Malina trying to play it cool saying “did what Malina?”

 

“You had sex with him you little strumpet didn't you.” Malina said trying to act all horrified that Hinata had pre-marital sex again. “I don't know what I will do with you; I thought you knew better then that.”

 

Laughing Hinata said “right, like I don't know for a fact that you and Itachi were going at it like rabbits two months after you met. That night I went into labor you guys were doing it. Don't you think I would recognize a sound barrier in my own house?”

 

Blushing deeply Malina said “yeah I know, but I would have thought YOU were to good one. Man I am so proud of you though, and he does know about Ramen right. By the way where is Ramen?” Malina asked looking around to see if she could spot the blonde boy.

 

“He's with his father, and yes he knows he's his father. They are out shopping right now. Did any messages come while I was gone?” Hinata asked putting her cloths in the dirty clothes basket before walking to her room.

 

“You schedule at the hospital is on your desk, and so is a letter from Gaara. You do know they can stay here right, if they want to, right?” Malina said following Hinata.

 

Hinata reading her schedule noticed she would began working the Monday Ramen started school. Reading the note from Gaara she turned to Malina “Malina, looks like Gaara will be here tomorrow and he's bringing Temari, apparently he wants my opinion on someone who wants to marry her. Plus he said they will love to stay here and he will be here for Ramen's party next Saturday, so don't tell Ramen ok it's a surprise. Oh crap Malina I need your help. I have no clothes besides my ninja outfit and some pajamas I need to go shopping. You have to help me. Please.” Hinata said giving Malina big puppy dog eyes.

 

“Fine, fine, it's no wonder were Ramen got that face I always fall for it. I love to shop, but what are you going to wear out of here. You can't go around in Naruto's clothes like that to go shopping, and since you're wearing them I am assuming you have enough hickeys on you, right?” Malina said with a laugh. “I'll be right back.”

 

When Malina returned she was carrying a pale blue kimono, handing it to Hinata. “Ok this should do for now, albeit you are skinnier then I was before I got pregnant, but your chest is bigger so it should work. Now hurry we don't have all day.”

 

Hinata took the clothes and then began to undress, then gasped in shock, all of her hickey's were gone, Even the ones that looked like they would stay awhile. Malina looked at Hinata and said “I knew you healed fast but not that fast. Still we have to go if we want to get this place ready for Gaara and company. I hate a dirty place company.”

 

Hinata quickly got dressed and tied her obi before looking in the mirror. If Hinata didn't know it was her she wouldn't have recognized herself. She hasn't worn a kimono since she was ten, for a meeting. Since she entered the ninja academy she was exempt from going. Leaving her hair down she grabbed her money pouch, and placed it along with a few kunai in her obi before leaving the room. Leaving a note for Sasuke and Ramen, the girls headed into town.

 

“Where first Hinata I really need to get the house cleaned and some painting done.” Malina said sadly. She liked painting and cleaning just it was hard with her so close to her due date.

 

“Then you will love this” Hinata said leading Malina to Hokage Tower. “You've obviously never been to a ninja village before. Here we have teams of three called Genin that needs missions to learn teamwork and such. Basically they take any assignment and the more you have the easier it is to advance. They do things like baby-sit, weed gardens, clean houses and paint for instance.”

 

“So you want to hire a group of Genin's to do the cleaning and painting for us right. Isn't it expensive for something like that?” Malina asked while she was never hurting for money, she didn't believe in being extravagant either.

 

“Nope that's the joy of it. It is the cheapest labor you will find, plus your garden needs to be planted and they do that also come on.” Hinata said walking into the room where Tsunade was handing out and accepting missions.

 

A few minutes later the girl were on their way, guaranteed that the work will be done in the next three hours and really cheap also, with a reminder to give Ramen a hug for Tsunade. The girls then Headed into the ninja surplus store to pick up Hinata a new outfit. Deciding that black Jounin pants were the way to go Hinata picked up a few pairs. Unsure of what kind of top to get she figured she could wear hers until she finds something she likes.

 

The girls deciding they were done shopping, since Malina was getting tired and the house should be ready made their way back to the complex to find spotless house. Both the inside and the outside had been cleaned, and the floors look liked it had a high gloss shine. In back the garden was put in and even the grass was mowed.

 

Malina said sitting down resting “do they always do this good of a job?”

 

“No” said Hinata “this is above and beyond anything I have seen.” Looking over at her companion who was grabbing her belly with tears in her eyes said “Malina are you okay?”

 

Malina looking at Hinata said “I think the baby is coming, Hinata. What shall we do?”

 

Hinata putting her hand on Malina's belly releasing a little bit of chakra said “The baby is in position and ready to go. We don't have time to get you to the hospital so I shall deliver the baby here.” With a few hand seals Hinata summoned Kiera and said “place her gently on the bed in her room; I have a baby to deliver. Then run and ask Naruto is Ramen can stay with him tonight, and why. I shall bring him a change of clothes as soon as possible.”

 

Kiera did as Hinata asked and was soon, looking for the boys while Hinata delivered a baby.

 

Earlier that day Naruto and Ramen had begun to train, first throwing kunai's and stars at targets. Even Naruto had to admit Ramen had better control then he ever did at that age. They didn't get to practice for more than an hour with Naruto felt the tingling sensation of a presence on the back of his neck. Wiping out his kunai and putting Ramen, behind him he waited to see what the presence would do. Hearing a deep, masculine voice say “Great why does he need a dobe like you to teach him? Want him to fail or something?” asked the figure stepping into the area.

 

Naruto eyes widened before going into slits said “What do you want Saskue-teme? Here to finish what you tried to start?” making sure Ramen was behind him before getting into an attack position.

 

Ramen peered around his dad and said “Uncle Sasuke” before running to the man, leaping into his arms giving him a hug. “What'cha doing here? Aunt Malina have her baby yet, or is Uncle Itachi home yet?” Ramen asked going a mile a minute.

 

Putting Ramen down with a smile on his face Sasuke said “no not that I am aware of. You guys didn't come home last night so I got worried, so thought I would try to see if everything is alright. Looks like it is so I should go ok, I will catch you at home Ramen.” Sasuke said and then turned around. He wasn't able to take a step before Ramen had his hand and was leading him towards Naruto.

 

“Wait Uncle Sasuke you have to meet my dad. Then you can train with us, right dad?” Ramen said to his dad walking a reluctant Sasuke towards Naruto.

 

“Ramen” Naruto said “How do you know Sasuke?” still unsure how the hell his son knows him. `If teme is playing with my son I will kill him where he stands' thought Naruto.

 

Thinking Ramen said “well when we were on our way here, mommy, Aunt Malina, Uncle Itachi and I came across a wounded Uncle Sasuke. Mommy healed his wounds then passed out for three days. Uncle Itachi said that Sasuke was his brother and would look out for me if I needed it and it was so cool Dad, Uncle Sasuke killed this weird guy in glasses who kept healing himself. Then he came home with us, why?”

 

Naruto thinking on this told Ramen “'Uncle Sasuke' and I knew each other for a long time. Why don't you go and practice walking on water ok while `Uncle Sasuke' and I have a talk.”

 

Ramen then went to the edge of the stream making his way to the water, then stopped, appearing to concentrate. Looking over at Sasuke, Naruto said “is what he said true? What am I missing?”

 

Sasuke took a deep breath and began his story “you do know about Itachi right, I mean you are ANBU.” Seeing Naruto confirm his question he continued “I had found out during a fight with Orochimaru that he was the one who killed my family not Itachi. I had gotten injured in an explosion in Musinick, before heading here to warn them of Orochimaru's attack. Along the way here I passed out, and when I came to I was healed but tied to a tree. When I had woken up Ramen was there talking to me, like it was the most natural thing in the world. He accepted me because I was Itachi's brother. I had a talk with Itachi and informed his I had no grudge against him anymore. When Itachi confirmed this, I told them we had to leave because Orochimaru can follow my seal. That's when I found out Hinata had broken my seal and dissolved it but it made her pass out for three days and I found out about my brother's pregnant wife. Long story short, we traveled home, got into a fight with Kabuto and Orochimaru. Both are dead and I am accepted back here, and Itachi is on a mission, telling me to protect them. Have to say though even if he didn't ask I still would have done it. They are the most kind and forgiving people I have ever met, and man can they kick ass. I mean look at Ramen over there walking on water.” Sasuke pointed to Ramen walking on water along with Kitsune. “Hinata was able to take away my seal, giving me my life back. For that she will always be family. So I will say this. Ramen's father or not, you break her heart and the Uchiha's will be after you.”

 

Naruto said with a small smile “I have no plans on ever hurting her Sasuke, I love her way to much and there's no way I'm giving up my boy. I take it then they have been staying with you then” seeing Sasuke nod Naruto continued “that is good, at least they are with someone I trust. But I will say this if anything happens to them while they are there, I will personally come after you. So have you seen Sakura yet?”

 

“Yeah I have, and I was going to ask her out on a date, but then Hinata showed up and next thing I know Sakura's calling me a pervert and punched me in the face. That woman has a mean right hook.” Sasuke said in thought “I wonder what's going on there though, is she married?”

 

“She never married Sasuke” Naruto said “she did try to get over you but it never happened. Well even though I didn't bring you back it's good to see you are back.”

 

Kiera came running into the field at this time informing Naruto of what happened. Replaying the message that Ramen could stay the night again Kiera ran off back to Hinata.

 

Sasuke seeing there was nothing more to say gave his goodbyes to both Ramen and Naruto and headed home to see if Hinata needed help.

 

Naruto thinking about his apartment took Ramen to visit his `obaa-chan' for a while, so he can ask for a group of Genin's for a `mission.' Tsunade hearing his idea smiled hugely and said “it's about time, I know just what to do,” before shooing both boys out of her office. Naruto smiled and took Ramen home, to read some scrolls, while they waited for Hinata.
