Arriving back into Tokyo, Hinata bubbled with a newfound brightness. One that no previous birthday or event had ever provided her. Several phone calls busied her phone on the three hour drive into the famous city, and several posts were made on her behalf, everyone spilling just how much they loved the midnight haired girl. While she was asleep, Naruto was the first one to publish her, making it his first official post back on social media.
Hinata's eyes nearly popped out of her pretty head when she saw Naruto's caption, which instantaneously caused several articles to be made about them within only a few hours of his post.
"Happy birthday to my best friend, soul mate, wife, I love you babygirl. Thank you for everything you do for everyone you love. I live to please and love you, and can't wait to spend the rest of my life doing it. Mine, my one and only, forever😘"
Every video on Tik Tok or gossip news outlet was now questioning if Naruto secretly got married this year. She scrolled endlessly looking at the insane reaction that this one post of his caused. Nearly making Hinata's heart stop as she read the assumptions. "Babe, they're calling me Hinata Uzumaki!"
Trying to hide his smirk with a swipe of his hand over his mouth, Naruto shrugged, "That sounds right to me."
Such a statement injected lethal butterflies into Hinata's stomach. She looked at his caption again and zeroed in on the word wife. They've never even directly spoken about marriage. Clicking her phone off before she became over stimulated over the reaction, Hinata snuggled into him in the back seat of their Uber, looking out of the window. Thinking maybe they didn't need to directly address it because they were both insinuating it. It felt right and inevitable and yesterday only confirmed that maybe someday soon they were on their way to making eternity into a reality.
For her the actual day of her birthday, Naruto took Hinata to all of the cool spots in Tokyo. They did Mori tower, Lab Planets, the Studio Ghibli museum, and even went to an adorable cat cafe. At Shibuya crossing, Hinata requested that they go to a gift shop. Although Tokyo wasn't so far dramatically from them, it's not a city she or anyone she knew visited often. So being the thoughtful Queen she is, she wanted to get all of her loved ones a little something.
Modern radio music invaded their ears as they entered a promising gift store, and a wide array of options met their sights. Naruto had to keep it to himself that there wasn't a need to get gifts for everyone but he played along.
"What should I get for your mom? I really want her to like whatever I purchase." Wrapping his arms around her waist from behind, Naruto rested his head on Hinata's shoulder. "One of those little refrigerator magnets would be nice." Hinata scrunched her nose at the idea, "But that's so basic. She gave me such a thoughtful gift- I want to be thoughtful back."
She could feel him smile against her cheek, signaling his appreciation for her cuteness, "Then maybe wait until her birthday- it's not so far away so you'll have time to get her something good."
