Disclaimer: Sorry I haven't updated in a little while. I was a little busy the past couple of days, so I didn't get around to writing until like yesterday. Anyway, as always, the only thing I own in the story is the plot and storyline. All rights belong to their respective owners. Some of the language and scenes may be adult.
Naruto's POV
"H-hinata?" I was almost speechless. She looked amazingly beautiful with her hair up and in her Starbucks apron. My mind started having perverse thoughts about Hinata, but I shot that down quickly, realizing where I was, blushing even more wheni realized that I thought of that.
"N-n-naruto-kun?" She seemed as flustered as I was, and her cheeks were red as well.
We were both interrupted from our trance by Fumiko. "Ahem. Well, this is kinda awkward. Anyway, I'll leave you two to it. And remember to lock the doors when your close!," she yelled as she went out.
After she left, we were left alone again. I decided to try to break the ice. "Wanna take the register, or make the drinks?" I knew that right now it's probably not that busy, so we could afford to have just one person at the register, y'know? "I t-think I'll t-take t-the d-drinks," she replied, still a little nervous. I wanted her to feel more at ease, so I grabbed her hand and looked directly into her pale lavender eyes. She was beautiful, and I resisted the urge to kiss her. "Hey," I told her, "Together, we'll become the greatest tag team that Starbucks has ever seen, alright?" I smiled, still looking into her eyes. Then I saw a small smile on her face. "Y-yeah. We will." I swear it was so similar to what happened in gym class last Thursday, from the way she smiled to the weird feeling that I received of my heart skipping beats again. I don't know why
After that little episode, Hinata and I got ready to take over. I managed the register, while she made the drinks. We worked together with incredible precision and speed. We started knocking out customers at a pretty fast pace, and we barely realized it when the clock struck 9. After we closed up shop, Hinata showed me how to lock and secure all of the doors and windows, and we finally got outside.
"Hey Hinata," I started asking her, "Mind if I walk you home? I mean, it might be unsafe out there, y'know?"
"Y-yeah s-sure," she replied.
After walking a couple blocks, we got to what seemed to be her apartment. But when I looked twice, I couldn't believe my eyes.
"Wait, you live here?," I asked her.
"Y-yeah, I d-do. Why d-do you ask?"
I couldn't believe it. "No way! I live here too!" I didn't know what to feel right now
When I looked at her, I realized that she was blushing again. It was also cold outside, y'know? So I asked her, "Let's go inside, shall we?" She agreed.
We got inside, then got into the elevator. Then we reached her floor. "Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then, Hinata," I said, a hint of disappointment in my tone.
"Y-yeah, I guess I'll s-see you t-tomorrow, N-naruto-kun," she told me, a small smile on her face. And as the elevator doors closed, she left.
As I got to my floor and into my apartment, I thought about how I felt different when I'm with Hinata. Every time I saw her, I felt my heart start to beat faster and faster and I started feeling likes I had butterflies in my stomach. It was a weird feeling, but it was kinda alluring too, y'know? It's like every time she left, I didn't want her to leave and I got sad. As I got ready for bed, I wondered what was it that I was feeling. I figured that I should maybe ask Pervy Sage when I see him in a few months time, cuz he's an expert when it comes to these types of feelings. I went to sleep feeling a little conflicted.
Sakura's POV
As I was about to go to bed, I started thinking about my life. Honestly, I haven't been able to get any closer to my Sasuke-kun, and now I'm losing hope that I'll ever get him, since it's likely that there will be our last two years together. I wonder if I should just move on with someone else. Maybe I should move on with Naruto. I mean, he's loved me since he was a child, and then at least he'll at least care for me. And maybe I can get closer to Sasuke-kun then, and I might finally be with my Sasuke-kun. And if that fails, at least I'll have Naruto as a consolation, then. I smiled at my thinking, then started formulating a plan and went to sleep.
A/N: I hope you like the series! If there are any suggestions, please put them in the comments section. If you don't like this story kiss my ass. Also if you're wondering I don't hate Sakura I just don't like her and I might model this after the fake confession in canon. Thanks
