Uzumaki Prodigy

Me: It is I, the almighty Uwaah-sama!

Naruto: Who hasn't updated in a year!

Me: I'm so sorry… You know, I don't know which excuse I should come up with: Either, I lost a lot of time searching for K-boys, or my computer broke down and I had to find a job and save up money to buy a new one. Which one is the most believable?

Naruto: Uwaah-sama still doesn't have a boyfriend for a reason…

Me: Not because I'm ugly… I'm damn hot, with a slice of ugliness. I just have an Asian fetish, and I happen not to know any Asians…

Sasuke: *Add – Sigh* Uwaah-sama doesn't own any of the characters mentioned in this story.


Summary: Naruto is a prodigy in class and in team seven. Uchiha Sasuke is NOT happy about his skills and claims them as rivals from their first day at the academy. Naruto is loved by many~ girls, but he loves only one shy little Hyuga. Probably NaruHina SmartNaruto.

Chapter 20 – Blush

"Naruto-kun," she mumbled with a light red blush grazing her cheeks, "w-where are we going?"

"It's just a quick stop," he answered with a smile. "You see, there's something I gotta show you. It's really pretty!"

She sighed. "But what are we doing on the Hokage Mountain?"

"Pretty things appear where it's tall!"

"Really?"

He nodded. "And on small cute things…" he mumbled.

"What?"

"Nothing!"

They wandered up the long stairs, hand in hand, him pulling her.

With Sasuke and Sakura

"What do you think Naruto-kun and Hinata-san is doing right now," Sakura asked. "Do you think he planned out a romantic picnic under the Sakura trees, or maybe a romantic walk beside an imaginary waterfall?"

"He probably has something planned out," Sasuke answered and sighed. "Where the hell is that stupid sensei anyway?"

"You think he's stalking them?"

"Most likely, if we know Kakashi-sensei right that is," he said and stood up. "Anyways, Sakura, you have to practice. You have nice strategies, but when we're under attack, Naruto and I can't always focus on you. You cut your hair, so I take that as a sign for you to want to improve."

She nodded. "I thought my long hair would be in the way…"

"Exactly, maybe we should work on Taijutsu for starters," he suggested. "Oh, sensei…"

"Hello," Kakashi said with his usual eye smile. "I see you're both working hard!"

"How's Naruto's and Hinata's date going?" Sasuke asked.

Kakashi raised a lazy eyebrow. "Huh? Why would you of all people like to know?" he questioned.

Sasuke nodded. "So you were spying on them," he muttered. "Let's get started on today's practice. After a week of no practice, we really need it."

Sakura nodded in agreement. "Though we spent that week mourning over the Third's death, we can't just rest now…"

"That's correct," Kakashi said. "That's why we're going on a C-ranked mission today. That is to get back in shape. We'll be going to a village to help them fight off the thieves that has been stealing from their stash."

"Great," Sakura said, excited. "Let's go!"

With Kiba and Shino

"You think they'll kiss?" Kiba asked.

"No, why? Because they're only twelve," Shino answered. "They're also both too shy to take the first step. They'll have to wait until they get older and get a little more comfortable with each other."

"But what if they do kiss?"

"Then it's none of our business."

"But we should at least go and see how the date is going!"

"You have a bad spying habit, Kiba."

"W-What, you have a bad habit of breathing!"

"That's a pretty good habit. It will come in handy, when I need air."

With Naruto and Hinata

"T-This is the village seen from the Hokage Mountain," Hinata muttered and looked at Naruto.

"You know, this is village is really beautiful," he suddenly said, confusing the girl. "It was founded a long time ago by the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan. Though, Senju Hashirama was chosen as the first Hokage and died fighting one of the many wars."

Hinata nodded and smiled. "I know," she said.

'Damn it…' he thought, whilst smiling at her. "Then do you also know that the Third was a student of both the First and the Second?"

"Yes, Iruka-sensei taught us that," she mentioned.

'What's next?!' He laughed, shortly. "Then do you know he married an Uzumaki?"

Hinata looked at him and shook her head. "No, I didn't know that. D-Do you have any connection to her?"

"Not really," he answered. "We might only share like one percent of one another's blood, but we're probably not near relatives."

"Then you're just clan members, like Neji-nii-san and me..."

"Maybe, or maybe not," he said. "I've even doubted my blood once or twice, actually. Like, am I even an Uzumaki? Every time I read about the Uzumaki's I read about their bright red tomato hair, but I'm blonde. How did that happen?"

"M-Maybe one of your parents were blonde," she suggested. "A-Are you ever curious w-who your parents are?"

"Sure I am," he answered. "I always wonder if they're dead or alive, or if they abandoned me willingly, or unwillingly. Though, it doesn't bother me."

"I'm happy," she muttered, low enough for him not to hear.

"So, now you've seen the village that I'm gonna become the Hokage of," he said and turned around. "Should we go?"

"W-Where to?"

"To the Sakura trees, they're in full bloom!"

With team 10

"Alright Chouji, it's time to lose some weight!" Ino exclaimed loudly, whilst fist pumping the air. "Or go and train with Lee-san, he probably knows of some cool movements!"

"He's in the hospital," Shikamaru said, whilst resting under a tree. "And to be honest, if Chouji loses weight, his Jutsus wouldn't be effective enough. The Akimichi clan's power comes from their big appetite."

"We have to train somehow! Asuma-sensei is off with Kurenai-sensei someplace, team 7 is off on a mission and team 8 is doing probably nothing!" Ino said, annoyed.

"Can't we just have a day off? After all we've been through; we should at least get two weeks off," he suggested.

Chouji looked up and down on Shikamaru. "You're just enjoying that vest you're wearing."

"It's kind of comfortable, I'll admit that," he answered. "Do you think it suits me?"

"You look like your dad," Chouji said, smiling.

"Don't insult me…"

With Naruto and Hinata

The two of them were sitting below the Sakura trees, which were in full bloom. They were both quiet and had closed eyes. Naruto sighed and smiled, relaxed. "The wind is so fresh on top of the mountain."

Hinata smiled, with her eyes closed.

The fresh air hit their faces. "Kit, put your hands around her shoulders…"

Naruto opened his eyes in shock. 'Damn it, I totally forgot you were here…'

"Trust me kit, put your hand around her shoulder and kiss her!"

'I'm not gonna kiss her, stop it!'

"I will take over your body and force you to do it,"Kurama threatened. "Now is the perfect time, too! You have the romantic scenery and everything! You have the light wind that blows in her hair just lightly, and makes the Sakura petals fly around you! Imagine this scenario: A petal gets stuck in her hair, and you, slowly, move your hand to remove it and brush her hair away from her face afterwards. You slowly move in for a-"

'WOULD YOU STOP ALREADY?!' Naruto's face was as red as cherries in their best shape. 'Don't dirty my thoughts like that!'

"What's wrong with kissing someone you love? Nothing! Nothing is wrong, I'm telling you!"

'Stop with that weird motivational kind of speech! We're too young to kiss and this is our first date…'

"Oh please, like every other kid your age hasn't kissed yet."

"They have?" Naruto muttered.

Hinata opened her eyes and looked at him. "H-have what?" she wondered.

"Have what?"

"Have what?"

"Have what, what?"

"D-Didn't you say something before?"

Naruto shook his head, which was grazed with a slight blush, as Hinata turned her face forward and closed her eyes again. 'You stupid…'

"Don't curse at me, you brat."

"Eh?" he wondered and looked up in the tree. "What are you doing there?"

With Konohamaru

'There they are…' he thought. 'Sneaking behind my back, eh? You though you could escape me, the great Konohamaru-sama? Well, you were wrong!'

"Eh? What are you doing there?"

'Damn it!' he thought with sighed. "I'm spying on you, so please pretend that I'm not here…"

"But you are though…"

"Please! Let me have my moment!"

Hinata looked up at Konohamaru. "H-Hello…"

"Nii-san, you dog," Konohamaru said and wiggled with his eyebrows. Naruto's face turned even redder. "Stop blushing, a man doesn't blush."


Me: Yes, it's short, but I really~ didn't have a lot of time, and no inspiration at all. Then suddenly I finally had that lost inspiration in my head and decided to write it down quickly.

Naruto: Anything more to add before we finish it off?

Me: Again, I'm so sorry for the delay. It won't happen (most likely happen) again! Also, I read through my older chapters, and just so you know… I started this story when I was like… Only almost 15 years old… I was so damn cheesy. I cringed at everything… Oh God, how embarrassing. Thank you for sticking through my one-year hiatus, and just so you know, I am doing a lot better after my accident. I stopped my rehab last Christmas. So as you can see, it wasn't that serious.

Naruto: Or Uwaah-sama is just a living miracle… *Forced to say, because Uwaah-sama is writing it*

Me: Please do review, and let me know if you're still there ^o^!
