Chapter 3: Hero vs Protector.

~Naruto's POV~

Sitting, just looking out the window 'Huh, a Hyuga and an Uchiha... Never would have guessed I'd be in the same class as them both.' I thought, remembering the warnings I got to never go against or be involved with the Hyuga or Uchiha. For being the biggest names in Japan, holding parts in politics, police and industry. Also remembering my arrogance in saying I'd go after them if need be.

Just staring out the window until the mention of my name "Uzumaki-san will need an escort until he is properly acquainted with our school..." Kakashi says "Any volunte-" He was interrupted as almost all the girls in class raised their hands. I saw that Uchiha-teme looking my way but then looked away when I noticed.

I honestly didn't want anyone to show me around, it would be more fun just wandering. I tiredly looked out the window again, resting my head on my hand.

"Hyuga-san, looks like you will be helping Uzumaki-san get better acquainted to our school." I hear the teacher say. Turning my head quickly, I see her hand up.

She turned my way, all I could do was smile as she quickly looked back to her table. 'Maybe this will be fun more than I thought...'

~Hinata's POV~

'HOW!?' Is what I've been asking myself for the last two classes we've gotten. 'How did my hero end up at my school? How am I, his escort right now? How have I not thanked him yet?!' I kept yelling to myself as we walked to the next class.

He was silent the entire time, haven't said a thing since I told him my name 'Does he not like that I was chosen to show him around?' I thought 'There were other girls begging to give him a tour... Even Ino...' But he ended up with me. I sighed lightly, feeling a little depressed that my hero isn't happy that I am accompanying him. But it felt a bit strange hearing the murmurs and the jealous looks we got walking to class. I mean he was also walking really close to me, as I flinched every time our arms touched. At first it was my hand but I started holding it because my face turned red...

When I 'occasionally' looked his way, he was either yawning or sleeping in class. Just like Shikamaru. And it also seemed like non of the guys in class liked him.

The bell went indicating to everyone that it was break. I packed my stuff up and when I looked up he was standing in front of me waiting. 'Still silent?' I thought sadly, a small frown forming. We walked out the class heading to my locker since I had to walk and show him around the school.

"So do people normally avoid you or is it because of me?" He asks out of the blue. My ears quickly catching the sound of his deep voice. Despite hearing him, I didn't know what he had said "S-S-Sorry...?" I say softly to repeat, looking down feeling bad for not listening. "Am I the reason everyone's avoiding you or what?" He asks again. I was definitely surprised at him speaking but even more that he'd ask that "N-No, not you..." I assure him "Then why?" He asks. I want to look him in the eye or face but I can't. "R-Reasons..." I say vaguely "Mm... Okay." Was all he said and it was back to that awkward silence 'Why can't I talk to him?!' I shout to myself. I didn't like the silence. I barely know him but I want to know him and the one time he speaks I shut down the conversation... We made it to my locker.

I shoved my books inside quickly, closing the door but I was suddenly caught in surprise as the blondes face was hiding behind the locker door. I was frozen, my face inches away from his as he just looked at me in silence. There were quite a lot of students in the hall that was watching, my cheeks turning a rosy red. "Did you tell anyone about what happened?" He asks still so close "N-N-Not the... Police..." I say honestly, yet nervous "So you told your friends it was me?" I listened as I watched his lips mo- I tightly close my eyes stepping back "Yes... I-I'm sorry, but they d-don't know it's y-you..." I say trying to catch my breath.
