All I Ask Of You

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto...SADLY...

No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.

I received great news today, Naruto-kun. I can finally go home! Can you believe it? I have missed Japan so much, and Konoha, and most importantly you. I bet your doing great as the Hokage now, and that the village is even more powerful then before.

I can't wait to see all you've accomplished. Just wait a little bit longer, okay?

Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.

I wonder how much you've changed. I bet you look even more handsome now. But I hope you haven't changed too much, because I so very much adore your childish antics.

You didn't completely grow up, did you Naruto-kun?

Say you'll love me every waking moment;

turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.

I'm on the plane now, Naruto-kun. I'm getting closer. Can you feel me?

Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you, my sweet Hime. I miss you so much, standing on the balcony of my office here day after day, I feel so empty without you to share the view with me.

I hope you are well, Hime. I hope your smiling face is shining bright where ever you are.

All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.

I still wait for you everyday, Hinata-chan. There are countless girls in the village who ask me out, but I only want you.

I only want to share a life with you. I want you to be my first for everything. I want you by my side as my wife, and I want to make little Naruto's and Hinata's. I want to watch our children grow up, and still be able to wake up to your dazzling face even at the age of 70.

I will never give up hope!

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you want me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
that's all I ask of you.

I can see Konoha's gates, Naruto-kun. They seem bigger then I remember, but maybe its just me? I can see your handsome face on the Hokage Mountain from a mile away, and as I thought, you look so much like you father. Handsome too.

He'd be proud of you, yanno. I wonder, what else have you accomplished?

As I walk closer and closer to the entrance, I feel myself become filled with a sense of nervousness. Its been 9 years since I have seen you and our friends. Have you all moved on with your lives? I wonder.

I hear my voice being called suddenly, I can feel my heart skip a beat. Is it you?

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.
Say the word and I will follow you.
Share each day with me, each night, each morning.
Say you love me ...
You know I do.

"Hinata is that you?" The voice calls me again. I look up and I see Shikamaru and Ino standing in shock. I can't help but feel a little let down, Naruto-kun.

I was hoping I could see you first.

"S-Shikamaru-kun, I-Ino-chan it's me." I stuttered, finding my old habit coming back. I hope you won't think me weak Naruto-kun, because I still stutter. I felt a blonde blur nearly tackle me in a bear hug, and I tried not to wince.

My body was still very weak from the illness that plagued me, and if I over exert myself I could die. It's why I had to stop being a ninja, but, I've found I'm a very good cook.

Will you like my food, Naruto-kun? I hope so. I have so many things that I want to make you, I want to see your smile every day.

"I thought you died! We all thought you were gone! Where did you go?" I couldn't help but let a few tears fall as I embraced Ino back. I didn't realize I missed this place so much. Would you have missed it too, Naruto-kun?

"T-Tell everyone to g-gather a-at training ground e-eight. I w-w-will explain t-there." Ino nodded to me and Shikamaru hugged me as well and was glad that I was okay because I was the "least troublesome" girl which earned him a playful smack from Ino.

I smiled at them, but I feel jealous, Naruto-kun. They are so happy together. They can be together.

I want to be together with you, more than you'll ever know.

I love you.

Love me, that's all I ask of you ...
Love me, that's all I ask of you.

Its a beautiful day out, Hina-chan. The sun is shining so bright and the sky is such a clear shade of blue. It's been cloudy the past couple of weeks, but today, today its so clear.

I feel you somehow, Hime. When I woke up today, I felt different. I felt like you were here, like you never left. It was almost as if I could sense your chakra.I thought it was a dreamy, a sweet dream that I would begrudgingly wake up from. But it's nearly 2pm and that feeling has only grown stronger.

Could you be here, my Hime?

Could you have returned to me? I spot a mop of blue/black hair in the streets by the front gate. I somehow know its you, and I can't help but feel my whole body tense.

Your here. Your alive, your back, and your so close to me. I'm coming, Hime.

Wait for me. I love you.

N: To hold her in my arms again, it was magical.

H: I had waited so long for this day, to hold him tightly and never let him go again.

N: This reality, this mutual love, is much better than my dreams.

"Welcome home, Hinata-chan." I said as I tucked a stray hair behind her ear. I saw that adorable blush adorn her cheeks and I couldn't help but let out a smile. She still hadn't changed. I was relieved, I had thought she would.

"A-Arigato, Naruto-kun..." Her voice had grown more beautiful, if that was possible. It was music to my ears, and now that I had heard it, I couldn't help but want to hear it for the rest of my life.

N: Hinata-chan...Ashiteru.

H: Naruto-kun...Ashiteru.
