NaruHina - Hearts Never Stop

NaruHina fanfic – Hearts That Never Stop. Ch. Prologue


It’s been a three years since Naruto has retuned to Konoha Village. Hinata Hyuuga had been stammering around, looking for a reason to talk to Naruto.

(Hinata’s apartment.)




the shy konouchi thought to herself.
<‘If I don’t it will just prolong this pain in my heart, besides  the worst he can do is say no.> Hinata set down the book she wasn’t even reading and headed to the Hyuuga mansion to talk to her father. When she got there her father Hiachi Hyuuga stared at her. Neji her cousin was standing behind Hinata’s father.


She felt his cold gaze pierce through her soul as she began to say
“Hello father and good morning Neji-san.” Hiachi sat down at the table. “Father?!”  “Hmm?” He looked at her quizzically.
“I gonna go train with Naruto today, and I was wondering if you could come watch me.” She timidly asked.
“Sorry Hinata but I’ve got a council meeting today, why don’t you take Neji here?”  “Actually Hanabi asked me to help her with her byakugan training. sorry.” Neji declared.

Hinata left the Hyuuga estate.
“So what’s your reason for lying to her?” Neji pondered.
“Well, Hinata has to learn to stand using her own two feet. She can’t go through life with some one always holding her hand. So why did you lie to her?” Hiachi asked.
“To tell you the truth I have to go train by myself, plus I don’t really like Naruto that much.” Neji laughed


“Aaaaaaagggghhhh.” Naruto yawned rubbing the sleepiness from his eyes. He heard a knock at the door.
“Oy Naruto Hokage-sama wishes to see you.” Said the silver-haired ninja at his door. “Oh hey Kakashi, why does Granny – Tsunade wish to see me?” he asked.
“Don’t know really. Hurry up though she sounded serious.” Kakashi said.
“Ok see you later sensei.” Kakashi vanished in a poof of smoke.
Naruto got dressed and headed out as he thought of the dream he had of his ‘water-maiden’. He saw her dancing under the waterfall. He thought of how beautiful & familiar she seemed. Then he thought of how the water followed.....
“HEY N-naruto-kun!” His daydream interrupted by Hinata

“H-hey Hinata, wassup?” The blonde ninja asked. .
<Oh man did I just stutter? Now she probably thinks I’m lame.> He thought to himself.
“Well Sakura said that Tsunade-sama wanted to see me, so I’m on my way to her office.”
“What a coincidence, she wants to talk to me too. I wonder what this is all about?” he asked.
Hinata shrugged.

<Oh my god he is so hot. I just wanna strip him down to his underwear. I wonder if he wears boxers or briefs. Oh god where did that come from I don’t normally think this way. Do I?>

Hinata blushed as she was thinking to herself. They both entered the Hokage’s room Tsunade said “Hey you two, just the ones I wanted to see. Ahem. Please have a seat.” “Ok.” They said in unison.  
“As you now the one named Sasuke Uchiha had ran from the village about three of four years ago, well it’s been said that he has been spotted alone somewhere between the Sand and Grass villages. It’s also been said that he has already killed Orochimaru as well as his older brother Itachi Uchiha and his partner Kisame of the Akatsuki. As for info on his little group the ‘Hebi’ we have no clue where they are.”

Naruto and Hinata stared in disbelief.
“Both Orochimaru and Itachi? But that’s impossible!” Naruto exclaimed.
“Well as you always say ‘Believe it’, cause it’s the truth and that’s why I’ve called you two here. I’m sending you, Sakura, and team 8 on an A-rank search and recovery mission, to find and bring back Sasuke Uchiha, alive! You begin in forty-eight hours exactly. Now go. I’ve got work to do.”
Naruto and Hinata both jumped out of thief seats. “Hai” They both left immediately.


“Sakura come in here.” Tsunade roared.
“Yes Tsunade-sama?” said the emerald-eyed girl.
“I need you to go and fetch me the records for Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuuga now.”
“Yes ma’am.” Said Sakura who vanished in a puff of smoke.
“Having second thoughts on sending them Tsunade?” A spiky-haired man, who looked like he was thirties but was actually in his fifties, appeared before the Hokage.
“No Jiraiya I just wanted to see how far along they’ve gotten in their training, that’s all.” she said
“Well I’ve got ‘research’ to do, see ya.” The white-haired man said slyly as he crept out the window.

“Hey Hinata what do you think happened to the Hebi?” Naruto asked.
“I don’t know. Maybe they disbanded. Hey Naruto-kun would you like to get some ramen tomorrow night? It doesn’t have to be a date or anything.” Hinata asked her cheeks turning slightly pink.
“A date huh? Well ok since were gonna to be going on a mission together I might as well get to know you better. So I’ll see you at eight o’ clock?” The whisker faced shinobi asked.
“Sure!” she said. Her was red as a tomato now.
“Well here’s your place Hinata. I’ll see you tomorrow night, ok?” He looked into her eyes and started to turn pink. He didn’t know how beautiful she looked up close.
<Man she has really grown up over time. She’s really kinda cute. Not to mention her lavender eyes were so beautiful. But there is no way she could like me. I’m an orphan and she is an heiress’ there is no way she likes me. Although, she is better developed than Sakura. Her butt’s also gotten bigger too. Oh my god what am I thinking? I think Pervy-Sage Jiraiya is rubbing off on me.>
“N-naruto-kun, are you alright? You kinda dozed off there a bit.” the navy-haired girl said nervously.
“Oh, well I was just thinking of something that’s all.” Naruto said.
“Like what?” Hinata asked.
“uhh like uhh How beautiful your eyes are. ” His face now beet-red. Hinata looked like a tomato.
<He said I was beautiful. ‘He’ said ‘I’ was beautiful, oh my god I’m gonna faint, I’m gonna faint. I hope I don’t want to faint. Oh no I’m gonna faint.> And sure enough Hinata fainted right there on the spot.
“HINATA…Hinata oh no what should I do? Should I take her to the hospital?, try to wake her up? What should I do?” Naruto panicked.
“Oy there Naruto, wassup?” The Copy Ninja said standing on the railing of the stairs.
“Kakashi Sensei I need help Hinata fainted and I don’t know what to do.” The blonde boy said.
“She’ll be all right, she just needs rest. You know you could always pick her up and take her inside. You DO have arms, right?”
“Wait you mean into my apartment?”
“Well yes, unless you want to leave her on the ground.” Kakashi said smirking under his mask. “Well see ya later Naruto.” Kakashi vanished in a poof of smoke like always.




Naruto picked up the long-haired angel and took her to his apartment. She slightly opened her eyes and saw her love carrying her ever so gently up the stairs. <Wow!
Naruto-kun is actually carrying me I feel like I’m gonna faint agai…n> Hinata’s eyes closed before Naruto saw that they were open.


Naruto somehow managed to open the door. Then he gently laid her fragile, pale body on his bed.
“Sleep well Hinata-chan” he whispered as he crept off his bed, trying not to wake her, stretched onto to the floor and hoped to get to sleep.


In his dream he had been holding Hinata in his arms. Her beautiful lavender eyes were swelled with tears. He had no idea where he was, but for some reason he didn’t care. In his arms lay the most gorgeous woman he ever laid eyes on.
All he needed to know is that they’re together. Then the world around him started to melt into darkness. Naruto found himself in front of that all familiar gate with the seal on it. He heard that bone chilling laughing that always made his throat seize shut.

<*Well… well….. well!  It seems that you have found your muse kit.*> The fox’s mischievous grin spreading across his snout.
<What the hell do you want Kyuubi?> Naruto demanded.
The giant orange-furred figure in front of him sat there licking its lips and smiling malevolently.
He looked at the eighteen year old boy.
<If you want, I could torment the girl’s dreams instead of your own.> Naruto looked up at the beast and yelled.
<You leave Hinata the hell alone. She is none of your concern. You leave her dreams and the dreams of others alone.>
<Ha ha ha ha….. I am messing with you kit. I can not torture anyone but you silly human. Now, Shall we begin?>
The demon tortured Naruto with dreams of his dark, unrelenting past all night long. People throwing rocks at him, calling things like ‘monster’ and ‘demon child’.




Naruto woke up in a cold sweat, his nightmare still fresh in his mind. He noticed the smell of food.
<Food? Oh god I didn’t leave the oven on last night, did I?> He thought to himself. He pulled him using the bed for leverage and he saw that it was empty with no trace of the limp female body he had laid there last night.
“HEYYY! Naruto-kun!” A pale Hinata said holding a hot bowl of ramen. She had startled him so badly he fell down and hit his face. Hinata giggled a little.
“Thank you Hinata-chan. You didn’t have to cook for me you know.”
“Well, you didn’t have to take care of  me last night either so now we’re even Naruto-kun.” she said sheepishly as she got lost in his cerulean eyes.
“Hey Hinata” he started. She looked up. “About our date. Are you still up for it?”
“Yes Naruto-kun. I was gonna ask you the same thing.” She said as her face turned a bright crimson.



So then they walked up to the Ichiraku Ramen shop. The village streets crowded as usual.  “Konichiwa Naruto-san, Hinata-chan!” a girl in her mid-twenties beamed as the couple walked up.
“Hello Ayame nii-chan.” They both said in unison.
“Ahh, my two best customers are here to keep my business alive. What’ll it be?” the old man asked.
“Two bowls of Miso pork ramen for me and whatever Hinata wants. I’m buying.” Naruto said as he pulled out his over-stuffed frog wallet.
“I’ll have the beef ramen please.” Hinata peeped.
“Awww, I didn’t know you two were dating.” Ayame teased. They both turned as red as tomatoes.
“Ayyyymee nii-channnnnn!!!! Please your embarrassing us. Yes we’re on a date, but please don’t make such a big fuss of it please? You’re making Hinata uncomfortable” A red Naruto pleaded.
“It’s ok N-naruto-kun I don’t mind that much.” She lied, her face still flushed.
“Hey Hinata do want to go train after we’re done?” she nodded.

As they sat and ate an unexpected visitor decided to pop up.
“Hey you two, wassup?” the pink-haired konouchi asked.
“Hey Sakura.” They said in unison now blushing ferociously.
“We’re kinda on a date right now.” Naruto said with a smile on his face. “Hinata, I didn’t know you told him….” Hinata clapped her hand over the girl’s mouth and gave her a glare that would melt steel.
“Shut it Sakura.” she whispered so Naruto couldn’t hear.
“Tell me what Sakura?” he asked.
“Nothing” Sakura and Hinata replied at the same time.
“Well I gotta go. Tsunade-sama wants me to give Kiba and Akamaru their check-ups today. See you guys later?”
“Yeah see ya later” Naruto said to his so called ‘sister’ as Hinata nodded.


Hinata and Naruto made their way to the training ground. Without words they took their fighting stances. Naruto charged Hinata. Using her byakugan she dodged it and hit in the side of the ribs with jyuuken.
After hours of playing cat and mouse, near the waterfall with the pond under it, Naruto finally says
“Why don’t you show me something I haven’t already seen Hinata?”
“Fine” she said coolly. She started to move her arms and legs as if she was dancing. Then it happened. The water around her started to follow her fingertips like streamers.
Hinata, in her skin tight training outfit, started gaining momentum. Naruto, dumbstruck, stand there in awe of her beauty as the water surrounds her remembering the way his ‘water maiden’.
<Oh my god! It’s her! Hinata is the naked girl under the waterfall.>  
“Aqua Jyuuken, Dancing Tidal Palm.” she yelled as she struck him in the chest sending him flying into a tree.
“NARUTO-KUN” she screamed.
<Oh no! I didn’t hurt him did I?> she thought to herself as she rushed to his side. “Naruto-kun! I hurt you didn’t I?” He looked up at her and muttered
“water maiden” just before passing out.
