Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

"Well, Anko-Sensei really had us practice in a lot of different ways, we started out with having to play pre-written scenes, then we went from there until we could improvise a scene off of each other. Anko-Sensei was very fond of making us act in ways we normally wouldn't behave. Ino-san had to act like a shy, uncertain girl, Tenten-san had to act really girly, stuff like that."

"And you?" The question left Naruto's mouth before he thought about it, but he was interested.

"I… I had to play a very confident role." Hinata's eyes dropped a bit again, her cheeks gaining some color.

"Really?" Naruto continued to look at her. "I'd like to see that." Again, his mouth had run off without his brain's permission. Hinata looked back at Naruto, a shy smile appearing on her face. Naruto decided that his mouth may have had the right idea.

"Well, I can show you, if you want." Hinata waited for Naruto to nod his head before closing her eyes and take a deep breath. She concentrated for a second or so, then smoothly stood up from her place at the table, carrying her plate with her. When she opened her eyes, Naruto had the idea he was looking at someone completely different.

"Why are we sitting so far apart?" Even Hinata's voice had gained strength and confidence, compared to her normally soft-spoken ways. "I know the table is really big, but we should just get more cozy because of it." Without warning she sat down right next to Naruto, setting her plate next to his. She ate some more from her plate, small, controlled bites, but as soon as she finished chewing, she turned her attention back to Naruto.

"So, are you ready for tomorrow? I think we're going to be a blast with all the practicing we've been doing, don't you?"

"Y-yeah…" Naruto couldn't really reply, still too stunned from the complete change in Hinata's character. She really was a great actor. What she did next, though, left his mouth simply hanging open.

"Oh, I was thinking… about tomorrow. After the dance is over…" she leaned into him, laying her head on his shoulder, but her arm was idly stroking his right arm. His extremely sensitive right arm. Turning his head a little, Naruto looked into Hinata's eyes and was lost in them. She even managed to make her eyes radiate confidence. Combined with their natural beauty, it was a very, very captivating sight.

Hinata didn't say anything more for a while, the two teens simply gazing into each other's eyes, Hinata's hand still slowly stroking Naruto's arm and sending shivers up his spine.

"You know…" Hinata's voice was different again, taking on a more… sultry tone. "If you want… we could just…" Moving fluidly again, her white eyes never leaving his blue ones, Hinata moved until she was sitting in his lap. Naruto was desperately hoping she wouldn't sit too close to his belly. Her stroking his arm had not left him unaffected. He only barely noticed the crimson appearing on her cheeks, but Hinata seemed determined not to give in now.

"Do something… right… now." With every word, Hinata brought her face closer to his, Naruto moving in almost subconsciously, enraptured by the woman in his lap, not noticing how her cheeks grew more and more crimson with every second. Just as Naruto closed his eyes in anticipation, Hinata suddenly went slack, her arms hanging around his neck and her body literally crashing into him.

She had fainted, an instant before their lips locked.
