As always, it was a beautiful morning when Hinata woke up. She washed in the bathroom and then went to have breakfast. Neji was standing at the breakfast table. "Good morning," Hinata smiled at him. "Good morning Hinata, did you sleep well?" "Of course." Neji had already finished breakfast and so he got up to go to training with Tenten who was waiting for him in the park. Of course, Hinata knew of the affection of the two, but they had to sort that out between themselves. But she had a problem of her own: Naruto. The boy she couldn't get out of her head and had been for years. Yesterday she had a very interesting conversation with Tenten.

Flashback:

Tenten and Hinata were still training a bit together. Sometimes it's just easier without these guys who still had to fight each other. Hinata kept banging on the stake that had crept out of the ground. "Tenten, we are here to train."The addressee looked around:" I know. But I can't do that today. You know ... ", she paused. Hinata knew immediately what was going on. That always happened to her when she started from Naruto." What about Neji? "" Oh ... come sit down ", Tenten knocked next to him. So it happened." You know, Neji smiled at me and asked if ... if ... if ... "Hinata had to sigh. She only knew old too well what was happening with her friend now, so she continued to ask carefully: "What? "Now Tenten screamed:" I wonder if I want to do something with him! Just the two of us! "* It's out now, oh man, that's difficult too. * Hinata clapped her hands." That's wonderful! "" But what should I wear? What if he doesn't like it with me? What if he then lets me sit? ... "Now Tenten was smiled calmly:" Neji is not like that. At the same time you can tell him how much you like him. "" No, I can't do that! " "Oh but. Come on let's figure out where you can go with him, ok?"Tenten sighed," I'm glad I have a girlfriend like you, Hinata. " "It's my pleasure. "" Oh no, the time is up. Tomorrow, same time, same place? Goodbye Hinata! "" See you tomorrow Tenten! "So they both went their separate ways.

Hinata was almost on the training ground when she was knocked down. But the speeder caught them in time and so the two of them paused for a while. "Are you okay? I'm really sorry. I'm running late again." Hinata slowly opened her eyes and looked up at an orange tracksuit. There she looked into a worried face with wonderful blue eyes that could not be let go. * Well ... Naruto! * He repeated the question and Hinata was startled from her stupor. "Well ... Na-ru-to. Yes, I'm ... I'm ... fine. Dan ... Dan-ke," she got out very quietly. He lifted her so high that she could resist by herself and said: "I'm sorry, but ... AAAHHHHRRRRRR !!! I'm too late!See you! "So he ran away again. Hinata hardly believed it. * He caught me and ... if I stop here, I'll be too late for training. * So she made her way too.

After the training we should all come back to the training ground at Sakura’s request. Sasuke was still gone and of course the team only consisted of two people, so Naruto was already sitting there. Now the other teams came too. Everyone sat down in front of Sakura, as Naruto did and waited for her to finally say something. Hinata sat next to Naruto. * I'm so close to him now. I am so nervous. * Sensei Kakashi went to Naruto and Sakura and said: "I am going because it obviously has nothing to do with training. Besides, I still have a lot to do." "With your flirt paradise books?" Laughed Naruto. Hinata had to smile and Sakura did too. “No, Naruto, not with my books.” “Oh, don't tell anything. I saw you standing in front of the bookstore and looking at the latest work,” laughed the blonde.* How was Naruto able to observe that and that without me noticing. So act now. * He pointed with his hand in one direction and said: "Look here comes Sensei Gai." Everyone turned in that direction, and Lee in particular got up, but there was no Sensei. When they looked again at Sensei Kakashi, this was the way, but there was a note there. Sakura took it in hand and read aloud: "Naruto, you will stay longer tomorrow." The addressed sighed a clear: "Always me." Hinata had to smile again. But now Sakura spoke up: “I wanted to invite you all to my birthday party.” She held out an invitation to all of them, which everyone accepted. Rock Lee stood up immediately and shouted: "I really like to come Sakura. Huchuuu!" "I also like to come", this sentence came from Neji, since he had never been to a real birthday party, he really wanted to go there. Hinata nodded to Tenten and she turned to Neji and asked: "Want ... want?"" Shall we go there together? ", Neji got ahead of her. She smiled and was a bit irritated that he had come before her, but she replied:" Of course! "* YES! I'll go out with him! * After everyone had agreed, they got up and left. Hinata wanted to go too. * Should I ask Naruto? But would he even go there with me? * Hinata grew out of her thoughts." torn when someone held her wrist. She turned and looked into the blue eyes that she loved so much. "Y ... Yeah? "She got out with an effort. He let go of her wrist. Now he looked her straight in the eye." Do you want to go to Sakura's party with me? I mean together "For a brief moment Hinata couldn't answer. It wasn't until Naruto repeated the question that she made it." Yes! I would like to say ", Hinata smiled all over his face." I'll pick you up tomorrow at 8:00 p.m., "said Naruto." Yes ... ah. "

Now, of course, the two girls had to have matching clothes.There was no doubt about that for either of them. So they stormed the nearest clothes store. “What do you think of here?” Tenten came out of the next cabin. * I wonder if she wants to seduce poor Neji? * "That looks great. It will melt away," laughed Hinata. Tenten also joined in her laughter. "You mean that honestly?" Hinata looked puzzled: "Of course. Why?" "I'll tell Neji how much I like him. And you will tell Naruto!" "I ... I don't know," Hinata stuttered . "We both swear it to each other, okay? That makes you feel safer," Tenten smiled confidently and Hinata joined in. Hinata, too, had found a pretty dress for herself.
Now they went to a shoe store to match the shoes with their clothes. The selection was too big for both of them, so that the other had to let them choose the right shoes.
Next came a drugstore. There was make-up and everything that went with it, like a matching bag.There the two met Ino with Shikamaru. Ino had wanted to buy something new for the party and Shikamaru had willingly accompanied her to the drugstore again. On the other hand, you could tell that he liked it when Ino felt comfortable. "So now we have our clothes and also make-up and shoes and cute bags," said Tenten, "what's missing?" "I don't think so. We should go now. After all, we have to train earlier tomorrow to get ready for the party "You are right Hinata. See you tomorrow." So she turned around and left. Hinata was now on his way too.

After a while, Hinata suddenly noticed a back alley. She didn't know what was pulling her there, she just knew that something was pulling her there. She peered cautiously around the corner. It was just Sakura and Naruto. * What are they doing there? It's rude to listen, I should say hello. * But she couldn't with the scene that threatened her now. She didn't understand a word because they were whispering, but what was going on was clear enough.Sakura hugged Naruto and was red in the face. He too hugged her now after a slight hesitation. He came closer to her ear and whispered something to her, making her look like a tomato. She squeezed him even tighter and now Naruto turned red too.
Hinata paused. Naruto actually gave Sakura a kiss on the forehead. Naruto added so loudly that Hinata could also hear it well: "I love you!"
*I love you? Both are red, that could only mean one thing: Sakura has overcome Sasuke and fell in love with Naruto. So now the two are together. * Hinata just read the tears that were running down her face now. * Then why did he want to go to the party with me? WHY?! He probably just wanted to play with me. Of course, you can put little Hinata in there too. Naruto, Naruto, Naruto, Naruto! How so? * She fell on her knees and dropped her purchases.
Footsteps came. Naruto and Sakura turned the corner holding hands and smiled at each other. When the two saw Hinata, Naruto immediately asked: "Hinata.What happened? Everything OK? "He looked at her worried, but she couldn't see it. In the meantime, she got up and ran away." Naruto, I never want to see you again! "Naruto and Sakura could hear it very well despite running away. She forgot everything around them. She just wanted to leave. * Naruto, I thought that you at least liked me a little. And now? Naruto! * It came More and more tears that fell to the ground.

"Man Sakura, what was the matter with Hinata?" Naruto asked worriedly. "I don't know. But we should talk to her, what did you do to her?" "You know that I couldn't do anything to Hinata." Sakura sighed, "Yes, I'm sorry. But something must have happened, right?" "Or what?", Naruto wanted to know impatiently. "Maybe she just saw us, do you know what that means?" Naruto didn't answer, but Sakura knew that he didn't know Hinata's feelings.

Hinata had run home in the meantime. Nobody in her family had noticed her, but she didn't care either.She just dropped into her bed and wanted to think. *HE. He, the boy I have loved for so long, hugged Sakura and kissed her forehead and not to forget, said to her that he only loves her. Naruto! I only want you, but if you are with Sakura now? Then what should I still do in your life? I can't do that. *. Knock Knock. "No," replied a weeping Hinata. Tenten strode in and immediately hugged her friend. "Neji called me. He said you were not feeling well." "He ... he ... hugged ... Sakura ... Naruto ... on his ... forehead ...
