Okay, this is the last chapter of '7 Days' and it will also be something more to this story than just the ending. I've had some thinking and look over reviews everyone sent me and I may have their requests coming true. Anyway, this is a short ending, but I hope you'll enjoy it. And another thing: there might be an M rating change for a little while.

Day 7: Farewell…?

Today was Saturday: the day Naruto leaves for his 2-year training. As morning hits the blonde ninja with its sunlight, Naruto was slightly opening his eyes to see what was up. He looks down to see his loving angel sleeping happily on his chest while softly breathing. Naruto smiled warmly, but was crestfallen when realizing that today he has to go with Jiraiya on an important mission. But he knew in his heart that if he goes on this mission, Naruto will become a lot stronger and will be able to protect Hinata and his friends.

Naruto sighed deeply as he looks up at the ceiling. 'I can't believe the week went by fast. I really wish that I would have some more time left to spend with Hinata. But still, I would love to do this all over again until I leave Earth.' Naruto was in his world now, not even noticing that Hinata was waking up. Her eyes slowly open as she moves her head up to see her boyfriend.

"Morning." Naruto caught this and looks down to see Hinata awake. He smiled as he kissed her forehead.

"Morning. Did you have a pleasant sleep?" He kindly asked her.

"I always have a pleasant sleep when I'm with you, Naruto." Hinata remarked as she blushed red.

Naruto chuckled. "Thanks, Hinata. You know, I'm glad that I get to spend some time with you this whole week. If I didn't have you come staying with me, I would have never realize my true feelings for you. Hinata, you're the best girlfriend a guy could ask for."

Hinata soon had tears coming down her face as she was love-stricken by Naruto's words. She nuzzled her head back to his chest and smiled happily. "Thank you, Naruto. I was just thinking the same thing!"

Naruto pulls Hinata closer for a warm embrace as he enjoys this tender moment a little bit longer. They knew this day would come that they would separate and they just started being a couple. But they understood what they had to do and have fate decide on it.

After an hour of extra sleep, Naruto and Hinata got up from their cuddle and exit Hinata's room. As they came to the kitchen, they spotted Naruko eating cereal.

"Morning, sis!" Naruto shouted happily.

"Naruto, Hinata! I'm glad you're up! Anyway, how was your sleep?" She replied.

Naruto and Hinata looked at each other with a blush on their cheeks as they turn to Naruko with the same answer, "It was great."

Naruko giggled and knew this reaction from both of them. "Naruto, I hope you don't mind, but I slept in your room last night since Hinata's room was occupied with you."

"It's no problem at all, Naruko. Last night was a blast!" Naruto said with a grin.

"Oh, I've heard! I didn't know you can play guitar! The whole village was going crazy because of you and your talented solos." Naruko replied.

Hinata nodded. "I agree. It happens to be the best date I've ever had!" Surprisingly, Hinata came up to Naruto and kissed him with passion. She pulls away to see his reaction and sees a handsome smile to add with it.

"Ooooooh, Hinata's getting frisky!" The blonde girl smirked as Hinata giggled.

"Well, I'd better get packing before I go. You don't mind waiting for me, Hinata?" Naruto asked.

Hinata nods. "I don't mind at all, Naruto. I'll wait."

Naruto left the kitchen to his room to get his things for his trip and leaving the girls alone.

"You gonna miss him, huh?" Naruko stated.

"I will, Naruko. But I know he's leaving for the right reasons and nothing selfish for himself. He cares too much to let anything happen to his friends, and I plan on becoming stronger myself." Hinata replied with a confident smile.

Naruko smiles happily that she noticed how Hinata changed. 'Master Kurama was curious to how he described Hinata shy and timid. But I see he was wrong as I see nothing but a brave girl with a lot of heart.' "Hinata, I'm quite surprised at you."

Hinata was confused to why she said that and replied, "What do you mean?"

"I mean, I heard that you used to be always timid and shy around Naruto and the others that you soon didn't feel like becoming a ninja. But what I see in front of me is Hinata, the once scared Hyuuga girl, turning into the bravest kunoichi in the Leaf Village. And if you want, I'll kindly help you with your training so you got Naruto's back!"

Hinata smiled widely as Naruko offered to help her friend out. And for three seconds, Hinata came up to Naruko and hugged her. "Really? Oh, thank you!"

Naruko giggled and hugs back her friend. "Hey, we're family here. And I don't mind helping family out."

Hinata releases the hug and looks at her. "You really think I'm family to you and Naruto?"

"I know so! You're like a cute little sister to me that I would squeeze like a stuffed animal!" Naruko giggled as Hinata smiled warmly to hear how she was part of the new Uzumaki family.

Just then, Naruto came out with trademark clothing on, but decided to leave his jacket and reveal his black shirt with the crystal necklace Hinata gave back to him to replace it with the locket she has now. In his hand, Naruto got her summer dress and happily gave it to her so she can change into her original clothing.

"I thought you might want this before we go. I'll let you change into your room." Naruto said as he was heading towards the couch. But suddenly, he felt a hand on his wrist and turns to see Hinata.

"Naruto, we're living together. I really don't mind you watching me in my underwear." Hinata said as she took off her nightshirt and revealing to Naruto her body with her bra and panties on. Deep down, in a pervy way, Naruto will miss those curves of hers as she puts on the dress.

Hinata came up to him and said, "So, you ready to go?" Naruto simply nodded as he had on his backpack with everything he needs. "Yeah, I'm ready. Before we reach the gates, how about we stop by Ichiraku's for a little snack?"

Hinata smiled and holds his hand. "One last lunch together?"

Naruto then lower his smile into a sad one. "Yeah." He then turns to Naruko and said, "It's too bad we didn't get to hang out as brother and sister."

"That's okay, Naruto! I'll just make to write to you every day and straighten the apartment out when you get back." Naruko replied.

Naruto and Naruko came closer and gave each other a sibling hug goodbye. Hinata was enjoying the moment as she was happy that Naruto finally has a family member to talk to. As they let go, the Uzumaki twins looked at each other and thought they were seeing their opposite gender in the mirror.

"Later, bro," said Naruko.

"See ya, sis!" Naruto replied with his infamous grin.

Naruto and Hinata enclosed their hands together as they left the apartment, leaving Naruko to have tears in her eyes that she will miss her brother in the next two years.

The couple was at Ichiraku's as they walked right in. They would've came a lot sooner, but Naruto was the talk of the town as a few villagers were wanting to get his autograph from last night's event and were complimenting him for dating the hottest Hyuuga around. Naruto and Hinata were just blushing and thanked the villagers for what they were doing for them.

And after hearing that he will leave today, few villagers were disappointed that he was going away for a while. But they were giving their apologies to Naruto for all the wrong they have treated him for years and hoped that he will forgive them. Naruto and Hinata were shocked by this reaction and never knew that the villagers care for him now. Usually they would throw a party for his departure, but they were sincere and happy that the blonde ninja saved the village numerous of times. Naruto just smiled and forgive all of them as they left.

"Naruto! How's my favorite customer doing?" Teuchi greeted.

"I'm doing fine, old man! Just came here to enjoy a few bowls of ramen before I go." Naruto said with a sad smile.

"And I see you brought Hinata with you! How great! Hey, Ayame, your two favorite customers are here!" Teuchi shouted as his daughter came from the back.

"Hey, Ayame!" Naruto and Hinata said.

"Hey, you guys! How are you doing?" The girl replied.

"We're doing great, actually! I and Hinata are just enjoying some ramen together." Naruto remarked as Hinata blushed.

"Huh? What do you mean by 'together'?" Ayame asked curiously.

Hinata was still blushing as she decides to answer that for Naruto. "Well, me and Naruto are officially...dating."

Ayame gasped in delight. "Really?! Is this true, Naruto?!" Naruto answered that as he kissed Hinata's red cheek. "Oh, my God! That is so adorable! When did this happen and when did you guys went out?"

Naruto rubbed his head and said, "We were boyfriend and girlfriend two days ago, and we went on our first date last night."

"Awwww, that's so sweet! You two are like the cutest couple I've ever seen!" Ayame said with joy as it caused both teens blushing like crazy.

"In that case: the two of you deserve the couple special. On the house!" Teuchi said.

"Gee, thanks! Well, I'll just have the miso pork like always," Naruto ordered.

"I'll have the same, please." Hinata added as they were now waiting on their orders.

"So Naruto, it's looks like you're leaving this afternoon." Ayame said with a hint of sadness. "I just can't believe we're going to miss you always eating ten bowls in one gulp."

Naruto sighed deeply about it and replied, "I know, Ayame. I can't believe it's just happening so fast. But the only thing I would miss the most is spending time with Hinata." He then reach over to hold Hinata's hand as he looks at her. "We just started going out and...I'm just shocked to see how it lasted. But still, I'm just happy that I get to date the hottest girl in Konoha."

Hinata giggled silently and blushed red. "Naruto, you're making me blush!"

Ayame couldn't help but laugh at the couple as they went through a lot in the past few years. Even though they might not see each other in two years, the wait will be worth it. 'You guys have grown so much.'

"Order up!" Teuchi shouted as two ramen bowls were placed right in front of them. Naruto and Hinata blessed the food and dig in. Amazingly, Naruto didn't eat his food at an alarming rate. He slowly ate his ramen like Hinata so he doesn't have to rush anything. The food was the last thing on his mind; although he will miss coming to Ichiraku's. They ate in silence as Hinata's stomach was growling to know that she was full. Naruto didn't mind as he finished his whole bowl.

They said their goodbyes and left Ichiraku's with satisfied smiles on their faces. Naruto and Hinata were just thinking about some things as they were walking towards the gates. They were just remembering the days they were hanging out when Hinata moved in with him:

[Default-The Memory Will Never Die]

Day One: Accepting Naruto's offer, approved by Hokage, kissing Naruto's cheek for his gratitude
Day Two: Observing Hinata's body, clothes shopping, signing Naruto's cast.
Day Three: Watching Hinata dancing by the lake, confessing their darkest secrets, reuniting with a family member
Day Four: Forgiving Sakura, waking up to see Hinata wearing a nightcap of Naruto's, enjoying a secret yuri time at the springs
Day Five: Almost perfecting the Rasengan, having their first dance, sharing their first kiss
Day Six: Meeting Naruko, having fun in the Konoha Festival, Naruto performing onstage with My Darling Assassin, sharing a kiss in front of the village.

[End song]

Naruto and Hinata were having the same loving memories that have their hearts beating fast. Hinata nuzzled her head onto Naruto's arm and sighed happily. He didn't mind as they look at a figure right by the gates. As they came, the teens saw none other than Toad Sage Jiraiya. And by the look on his face, he was smirking at Naruto who has Hinata wrapped around his arms.

"Well, well, well! Looks like my student finally got a chance to smile again!" Jiraiya said with a sly tone. "And who might this young lady be holding on to you?"

"First off: Her name is Hinata Hyuuga and she's my girlfriend. And second: Don't you dare put her in your books!" Naruto shouted as he holds on to Hinata.

"Relax, kid, I'm not doing that. She's way too young to star in my next book. Until then, why don't you can it and respect your superior?!" Jiraiya demanded.

Naruto replied, "I'll respect you if you stop being a total pervert around women and Hinata, you Pervy Sage!"

"Why, you little...!" Jiraiya then puts him into a headlock and noogies Naruto's head. Naruto grunts as he was trying to breaking free. Hinata, however, had a sweatdrop from her head and laugh nervously at the situation.

"Really? Can you guys get along for five seconds without trying to kill each other?" Behind Hinata, she sees Tech, Anko and Hanabi coming to meet up with the others. "Naruto, please refrain from him."

Naruto and Jiraiya quickly separated and looked away saying, "He started it..."

Anko sighed, "Don't know, and don't care. Hey, Hinata, how's it going?"

"I'm doing fine, Anko. Thanks for asking." Hinata smiled. "And Hanabi, what are you doing here?"

"I just came by to see you, Hinata! You look great today." Hanabi complimented as Hinata nodded.

"So, Tech, what brings you here?" Naruto asked as he then sees a backpack behind him. "You going somewhere?"

"Eh, you can say something like it. Anyway, it looks like today's the day you leave, huh?" Tech said with a small smile.

Naruto replied, "Yeah, but at least I get to have fun before the week was over. It was really worth it as I get to spend it with Hinata." He then looks at Hinata straight into her eyes and continued. "Well, I guess this is it."

Hinata frowned a little. "I'm afraid so, Naruto. But I did enjoy having fun with you for the last six days."

"I agree," Naruto remarked, "and you've really changed everything about yourself that made me so proud of you. I know I'll be missing this Leaf Village, but I will miss you the most of all, Hinata. Just know that I love you and I'll never stop doing it."

Hinata just smiled and gave Naruto a firm kiss on the lips that surprised everyone. She pulls away and said, "I know, Naruto. Because I love you, too."

Naruto couldn't help but hugged her with love as he couldn't think of what to do or say to her. Hinata was always there for him through every challenge he had and succeeded into going the next step of becoming Hokage.

As Naruto was hugging, Tech seems to notice something coming from Anko's eyes. "Hey, are you...crying?"

Anko was smiling as she wiped her eyes. "No, you dork! Something was stinging it, that's all!"

Tech sighed. "Whatever!" Tech didn't mind the touching moment, but he decided to tell them something that might surprise them both. "Hey, Naruto!"

Naruto released the hug and responded, "Yeah, Tech?"

"Before you go, you might want to read this letter. It's from the Hokage, and you may like what it says." Tech pulls out the letter from his pocket and gave it to Naruto. Both Naruto and Hinata were curious to know what was important as they open the paper up and read it. It said:

Dear Naruto and Hinata,

I hope you guys are well-rested and up because I've got some news for you both! Remember that report you gave me Wednesday about Hinata containing the Seven-Tailed Fox inside her? Well, it's hard to say that she may experience what you may have, Naruto. I may not know if she might go on a rampage, but I need precaution to prevent any recent incidents to occur once Hinata lose control.

I have informed Jiraiya about this report and even explained to Tech and Anko about what happened to the both of you. And for Hanabi, she already knows about the beasts and hardships you guys have lately. Bless her little heart.

So here's the good news you both may love: Hinata, you are hereby assigned on a special S-ranked mission that involves you to have complete control of the tailed beast inside. And for this mission, you will be joined by Naruto and Jiraiya as you and Naruto will be training with the Perverted Toad Sage for the next 4-5 years tops.

To the both of you, I know you guys must be happy to hear about the news and I wish you a safe trip and the best of luck. And Naruto, your twin sister told me about herself and was really glad to hear that you will be with Hinata for the time being.

Signed,
Lady Tsunade

P.S.- Naruto, when did you start playing guitar? It looks like you really got fans...and a few fangirls talking about you!

After reading the letter, Hinata was speechless beyond anything she could ever imagine! Her heart was beating at an alarming rate as she was assigned to a special mission that involves being with Naruto. It seems that fate has different plans for the two as Hinata gave Naruto an everlasting hug.

Naruto was loving the fact that he can finally be with Hinata for an extended time as she joins him and Jiraiya for the trip. He hugged back and chuckled. "Hinata, I can't believe it! You and I are going to be together!"

Hinata giggled with joy. "I know, Naruto! I'm just so happy!" But as she wanted to say more, Tech hands out the backpack behind him and gave it to her. "What's this?"

Anko smiled. "It's some clothes and supplies you need for when you go with the guys. The Hokage made us do some errands to find them and give it to you."

"So, it looks like you're set!" Tech grinned as Hinata gracefully took the bag from him. But then, she looks at Hanabi and came to her.

"So, Hanabi, are you mad that I'm leaving?" Hinata worried that Hanabi might shout at her. But instead, she sees her little sister smiling.

Hanabi shook her head and replied, "I'm fine, Hinata! I'm happy that you get to be with your boyfriend! Just make sure you'll write letters to me, OK?"

Hinata nodded quickly and gave her sister a hug, but then got another hug from Anko as the three girls were laughing in their group hug. Naruto and Tech just laugh at the moment as they face each other.

"Well, it looks like we're going our separate ways." Naruto spoke.

"Seems like it, yeah." Tech replied as he puts on his infamous smirk. "Just remember: you and I still have our rivalry battles ahead. My record is 40-0 and I'm planning on keeping it that way once I keep kicking your ass!"(A/N: Tech and Naruto are always rivals in any challenges to see which one is the better ninja. Tech keeps a perfect record of most wins as Naruto plans on breaking the streak soon before it reaches 100-0.)

Naruto then puts on his infamous fox grin and replied, "Hey, I'm planning on beating your winning streak and become the strongest ninja there is! You and your streak are going down! Believe it!"

The boys did a fist bump to each other and said their goodbyes as Tech, Anko, and Hanabi left.

Naruto and Hinata then faced their new sensei as Jiraiya instructed, "All right, you two! This training will leave you guys up to your full potential stamina, speed, agility, and strength. Also, I will help master your chakra control and your forbidden powers as Jinchuurikis. I expect 100% performance and trained hard to make sure it's possible! Understood?"

"Yes, sensei!" Naruto and Hinata spoke in respectful tones.

"Good! Because by then, Naruto might need to treat women better with some 'helpful' tips." Jiraiya said with a creepy smile.

"You pervert! You saying I don't treat Hinata better?!" Naruto shouted.

Jiraiya laughs heartedly. "Only when you fail on pleasing her in bed!" And with that, the Ero-Sennin ran faster as Naruto was about to chase him. But then, He felt a soft touch from Hinata.

"Want me to help, Naruto? I don't mind help getting your revenge on him." Hinata said with an innocent smile.

Naruto smiled back and said, "Gee, thanks. You are the best, Hinata Hyuuga."

"Thank you, Naruto Uzumaki!" But soon, she came closer to his ears and whispered, 'Next time: pronounce me as "Hinata Uzumaki", OK?'

Naruto started to blush red as he grinned widely to that statement. Naruto then enclosed his hand to Hinata's as they ran off to find the running Jiraiya. After seven days of being together, their love and relationship is only the beginning...

The End
