The Secret Crush

"HINATAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"

Naruto's voice broke throughout the calm serene silence of the Hyuuga compound.

Neji glared at his fellow shinobi from where he was resting from training.

"Baka! Do not scream her name like that, you might kill her...."

Naruto gave Neji a blank stare...

"Uh...Hey Neji, I need Hinata!!!"

Naruto gave his large smile his whiskers stretching broadly across his face as his eyes danced in the bright sunlight.

Neji would have rolled his eyes had he not been a bit too good to do that.

"Well obviously, why else would you be screaming her name? Never mind. Dont answer that. But what do you need Lady Hinata for?"

Naruto smirked and gave the classic V to Neji.

"New mission from Baa-Chan! Me and Hinata have to go to....wait its a secret!"

Neji stood up and smirked at Naruto.

"Maybe this will be your time to find out about the crush."

Naruto tilted his head to the side and let his mouth drop slightly.

"What crush? Wait! Does Hinata have a crush? On who?"

Neji wasnt surprised at Naruto's density but the fact that he was so interested.

"Ask her yourself. I'll go get her."

A few minutes later, Neji returned with a Hinata, whom was very much ready for the mission.

After about an hour or so of traveling, Naruto sighed at the boring trip. There was NO conversation at all, so he settled down and took a break.

Hinata quietly ate and every few moments, looked up and stole a glance at Naruto.

After Naruto finished eating, quickly might I add, he looked up at Hinata and gave her a huge smile.

"Hey Hinata. Neji told me you have a crush on someone!!!"

Hinata's lavender white eyes went wild and her cheeks changed into a dangerous shade of red as her heart began to beat faster.

"Eh....Uhm...Y-yes...I d-do..."

Naruto grinned while waiting for more, but as none came, he figured she wouldnt tell him.

"Ok ok. So you won't tell me. Hey I know! How about we play 20 questions?! And at the end, I'll guess!!"

Hinata thought for a moment.

Maybe this is my chance...I'll do it!!!

She nodded her head yes and her eyes began staring intently at her feet while her fingers began tapping wildly.

Naruto grinned.

This is gonna be fun! Dattebayo!!
