Life Starts Now (Revised) NaruSasuNaru

Used to This (Camila Cabello)

"It's gonna take me a minute, but I could get used to this."

Kiba and Hinata had been talking and going out on dates, but they hadn't quite put a label on it yet. Kiba wanted to make it official but he was scared that she didn't feel the same way. They had been just friends and he knew she had a crush on Naruto for the longest time and he wasn't sure if she really got over it and was ready for a relationship. Part of him was hoping that the shy woman would be the one to bring it up.

The two were sitting at a small cafe just outside of campus. They had been enjoying each other's company. He could get used to the feeling of them together. "So," he started, not sure exactly what to say. He wanted to talk about where she saw their relationship going but was scared of the answer. "I know we've kind of keeping thing casual and going with the flow, but I just need to know if you see yourself ever wanting more than this," he waited nervously for the answer, torn between wanting to know and fearing that the answer may not be what he wants to hear.

Hinata smiled at him, "Is this your way of asking me to be your girlfriend?" She couldn't help but giggle a little at how nervous the man was.

"I mean, only if you're going to say yes," he answered nervously. "I mean, if not I'm cool with what we have. I like spending time with you so I won't be upset. I don't want to lose this," he started rambling. His mouth immediately closed when she grabbed his hand.

"Yes," she smiled. "I'll be your girlfriend."

He was shocked, not having expected her to agree. "Really? What about Naruto?" the question slipped through his lips. He was still insecure about her feelings towards his best friend.

"I won't lie," she sighed, but continued to hold his hand. "There will always be a special place in my heart for Naruto. He was the first guy I thought I loved, but I want to try with you," she told him honestly. She had been enjoying their time together more than she expected. She had never thought of him as boyfriend material and now she realized how wrong she had been to write him off when he was a great guy.

"Thought?" he asked.

Hinata nodded, "I mean, I was talking to Sakura and she thought she was in love with Sasuke before her and Karin went on their mission to get him and Naruto together. She understood and explained how she realized it was just infatuation that she felt. She made me realize that I don't really know Naruto so I can't really be in love with him."

Kiba wanted to hug and thank Sakura at that moment and maybe tell her she should just give up on college and start her own match making business. He grinned as they continued their night with no further discussion of Naruto. He felt on top of the world as she gave him the look he always hoped she would.

"So, you finally got a job?" Sasuke asked Suigetsu as they hung out in his room. "What's next?" he knew that the other man was having a hard time processing all of the news with Karin's pregnancy. It was an adjustment to go from thinking he's a college student ready to party to accepting the fact that he's going to be a parent.

Suigetsu nodded, "It's not much, but it'll help pay the bills. We can't have a child in the dorms so Karin's parents have already agreed to help us get and pay for an apartment. I think they're just happy that I'm sticking around," he sighed. "Not all of us can be rich trust fund babies like you so I have go actually work and go through school and raise a child," he was stressed the more he thought about how his life would change.

Sasuke didn't take offense to his comment, knowing that the man was just overwhelmed and ready to take it out on everyone. He wouldn't point out that it was his own fault for being an idiot and not using protection. "It'll be hard, but I think you'll like being a parent more than you realize," he assured him.
