They meet again by shikatema_fan69
Their first meeting after Naruto arrived was totally accidental. Hinata didn't want to be seen by Naruto, but she did want to see him. So she decided to follow him, she didn't want to think about it as stalking, but, you know, it was kind of hard not to... Anyways, she decided to follow him.

===================

Naruto was finally back in the village he loved. He had already seen most of his old friends... most. He still hadn't seen Hinata yet, at first he thought she must be away on a mission but when he asked Kiba, he said she wasn't. As he walked into the ramen bar, Naruto wondered where she was.

He finished his um-teenth bowl of ramen and decided he was done. He was walking out, and he could've sworn somebody was watching him, he felt like his every move was being watched with very intent eyes. He decided it was all in his head and went back to whatever thoughts he had in that empty head of his.

===================

Hinata was having a very succesful day of surveilance, she hadn't been caught yet, and she had been at it all day.She was sure she had been caught earlier when Naruto was walking out of the ramen bar. She was satisfied with her efforts and was ready to head home, she thought she was in the clear and was about to turn the corner when, (guess who) the number one hyperactive knuckleheaded ninja himself came around the corner. ( guess right?)

They were so close Hinata could kiss him if she had the guts. Hinata's face was as red as Gaara's hair when she backed away. "N- Na- Naruto, s- s- sorry" was all she could get out. "No, I'm sorry, it was my fault. Aren't you suprised to see me?" Naruto said. "I- I heard y- you and the rest of team seven were c- coming back." Hinata replied. "Oh." Naruto was somewhat dissapointed as he said this. "W- well, I have to go now N- Naruto." "Oh, well, I guess I'll see you later then." He was definitly dissapointed that time.

Once she was out of Naruto's sight, a red faced Hinata ran all the way to the Hyuuga mansion.

===================

As Naruto headed home, all he could think about was the shy Hyuuga. He just couldn't get her out of his head, no matter how hard he tried... But then, he wasn't really trying.
