The blonde was headed towards the Hyuuga compound. Yes, this was a rare occurrence. He'd decided to inform Hinata of his relationship status. To be frank, Naruto really couldn't tell whether the girl had figured out his preference yet. She was always hanging in the background, invisible, but he knew she was there. Sakura had told him that Hinata liked him only an hour ago. So Naruto had made it his job to make Hinata's rejection as painless as possible. He knew rejection; he'd been rejected several times by Sakura.

"Hinata-chan ? You there ?" Naruto shouted at the locked door. His hands fisted in his pockets when a cold swipe of wind brushed past him.

"N-Na-aruto-kun ? W-what are y-you d-doing here ?" Hinata stuttered from behind him. Her voice was soft and innocent. Naruto winced at the thought of having to hurt her.

"Yep. It's me. Uh, listen. I had to... Talk to you about something." Naruto frowned. Hinata raised her thin brows, but led the way towards a secluded place anyways. She stopped underneath the shade of a tall oak tree.

"P-please go o-on." Hinata muttered. She wrung her hands in an act of nervousness.

"Do... do you like me, Hinata-chan ?" Naruto asked. Her milky eyes widened in shock.

"W-what ? E-excuse m-me ?" Hinata choked. She took a full step backwards, catching her breath when her back touched the rough bark of the tree.

"You heard me." Naruto said gravely. His normally sun kissed skin was pale to the point where it resembled a blank sheet of paper.

"... Mmm. N-Naruto-kun, I-I... Yes. Y-yes. I-I l-love y-you," Hinata whispered. Naruto opened his mouth to reply, but was cut off by the young girl. "B-but I've realized y-your p-preferences. I-I'm so h-happy I-Itachi-san can m-make y-you smile s-so b-brightly."

Now it was Naruto's turn to stare in shock.

"You have ? What ?" Naruto asked dumbly. Hinata shook in weak laughter.

"Oh, Naruto-kun. Y-you've always b-been s-so n-naïve." Hinata glanced back at the Hyuuga compound.

"Uhm..." Naruto mumbled.

"I-I have to g-go, Naruto-kun. I-I'll s-see you sometime l-later." And with that, Hinata, the shy girl who hovered in the background, confessed her love and ran away.

"What's up with her ? I don't understand girls." Naruto huffed. He crossed his arms in the childish manner he used so frequently.

"What's wrong with them ? Always so deceiving. Sneaky." Naruto muttered under his breath. He was so busy glaring at the rocky surface of the ground that he didn't notice the person walking in front of him.

"Oof ! S-sorry." Naruto stuttered. He waved his arms to regain his balance. 'Oh, great. Another girl. And a girl I know, at that.'

"Oh ! Hey, Naruto." Ino flashed him a grin. Naruto wasn't sure where this newly improved, 'kind' Ino was coming from.

"Hello, Ino-chan." Naruto nodded politely, eyeing the broken shards of glass on the floor. "Careful." He added as a precaution.
