Changing feelings

-Uzumaki Rieya(Ray-chan)'s Part

-Timeline : The last movie

"Eh, that's Rieya!"

A sweet voice from a woman with a round forehead engraved with the Byakugo brand. Short, cherry-colored hair Emerald eyes sparkled when they saw my face.

"Hi Sakura."

I greeted my fellow classmates who were on different teams.

"Where are you going?"

she asked, looking at the paper bag in my hand.

"Give the things to Naruto," I replied.

"Eh~ There really isn't something wrong with you two, right?"

"So we're friends, ya girl."

Her cheeks puffed up when she heard the nickname Ino had given her as a child.

“They live in rooms next to each other. Always stuck together Until now, you'll go out on missions more often, so come back every once in a while...."

"What exactly do you want to say, Sakura?"

"Ugh....you always know."

"I understand that Hinata has a crush on Naruto, right?"

"Ah....yes."

"Naruto doesn't love me like that." That is what I am sure of.”

"What about you? She once said---"

“My feelings are stronger than your love for Sasuke. That's all I can tell you."

"Does that mean you still love Naruto?"

"Don't worry, that one doesn't feel the same way."

I looked at my female friend's face for a while.

"I'll go first. See you later."

Sakura didn't follow at all. She just asked one sentence that almost stopped me in my tracks.

"Aren't you sorry, Rieya?"

On the way back to the apartment that was quite old because I had lived there for many years. I looked around at the various stores that had changed their styles a lot. Including people from different regions who traveled in the peace era after the 4th Ninja War, there was one hero who saved the world. And it's the person I'm about to meet....

"Rei-chan! You've come back!?"

At first, a cat-faced male friend opened the door with an expression of extreme boredom. But when I saw it, my face changed into a happy one.

“Um, I'm back. Still as cheerful as ever, Naruto :)"

Sky-blue eyes, brighter than the sun I miss

“Welcome back. This time we haven't seen each other for three months."

The last mission was scouting so it took longer than usual.

“Come in first. The room is a bit messy."

Naruto has quite a lot of missions lately, so he hasn't had much time to clean his room. But his mission lasted only a week at most. Most of the time it doesn't even last more than three days.

"Let's clean up, shall we?"

"Ah...um! But I just returned from a mission. Rei-chan, aren't you resting?"

"It's okay. Let's get started :)"

Because the time spent with Naruto....was a much happier time than just taking a nap.

But who would dare to say that?

Several hours passed....

"Thank you very much, Rei-chan!"

"With pleasure. But is that a new scarf?”

I pointed to the green and white striped scarf that lay on the bed.

"Oh, that day, Konohamaru invited me to his house and said that his mother had left this scarf to his third generation grandfather."

Naruto said, scratching the back of his neck to relieve his shyness.

It's Miss Kushina....

"Why don't you wear it? It's still winter :)"

I'll probably have to give this scarf next year....

"So I'm wearing it....oh!"

"Ah....What?"

I was startled by Naruto's cry.

"I just noticed that you were carrying something."

He walked over and picked up the paper bag I had placed on the small table next to the Team 7 picture frame.

“What is it? Did you buy it for me?”

Act like a child....

I smiled at that curious expression.

"The scarf. At first I wasn't going to give it to you."

"Eh!? Why!?"

"Well....well...."

I glanced at Kushina's scarf.

“Because I already have Mom's scarf? Don't worry. I'm definitely wearing Rei-chan's stuff too!”

"Are you going to take turns wearing one each day?"

"No, I'll wear both."

I smiled for three seconds.....

"Naruto, there are limits to being crazy."

"What?...Rei-chan, don't be harsh."

Sometimes I wonder if the girls from various villages who secretly have a crush on the young man in front of them saw his actions right now, would they still be fans?

“Rei-chan just came back. Let's go celebrate!”

"Hmmm. Celebrating?"

Usually I just invite them to go out to eat ramen together.

"That's right. Invite your friends to go eat ramen!"

That's it! If you just want to eat ramen, tell me.

"It's also the Ramen Festival right now."

Even if it's not, you'll eat it anyway, right?

And in the end, it turned out that Team 10, the three of them, Naruto, Sakura, and I were crowded into the Ichiraku Ramen shop. There seems to be one space left next to the cherry blossoms on the far right edge.

Thinking about the conversation in the afternoon makes me not really want to see her at all....

But to make the atmosphere not uncomfortable

"I'm ready to support you if Honesty likes Hinata."

Sakura's eyes widened in shock.

"What!?"

I quickly closed my mouth on her.

"Is something wrong, Sakura?"

Chouji asked with his mouth full of gyoza.

"What's wrong with you, girl? I'm shocked."

Followed by Ino wearing full makeup. Definitely have a date with Sai after eating ramen.

"That's annoying, Rieya. Stop teasing others."

Shikamaru wants to be dealt with, right? I'll sue Temari to have her blow her in the face with a fan!

"You're getting better at jokes, Shikamaru."

Here's a cheerful laugh! I want Hinata to face it once and for all. The charge is that people confessed their love from a past life and still didn't know it in the afternoon!

Building....Building....

I can't gossip about anyone....

"Oh Hinata!"

Sakura waved her hand to her fellow Hyuuga clan girl who was hiding in a corner in the dark. But with pearly white skin, it was clear who he was.

"Let's eat ramen together?"

Naruto invited. If it were anyone else, they would probably think that he was acting according to his normal behavior. But the truth.....

Because I was cut off from the outside world for a while. The next thing I knew was when Sakura nudged me to move to sit on her seat instead. So that Hinata could sit next to Naruto.

I really can't praise this couple at all _

After eating for a while, a junior at the academy came to meet my favorite idol, Naruto. which with more than a hundred good-natured So he invited them to sit and eat ramen together. But it didn't end there when a female junior dragged him to sit and eat with her.

I'm starting to see Hinata's expression as if she wants to cry...

"Hinata is coming back?"

It wasn't me but Sakura who asked.

"Oh, I'm full now."

How can you be full after eating just three bites?

"Hey Naruto, can you please send Hinata away?"

Or I can send it to you. But if you speak now, you'll definitely get Sakura's punch.

"Eh, Hinata is so strong that no one will dare to die."

Look, I'm talking...Didn't Lord Jiraiya teach him how to be a man!?

"It's okay. I can go back myself."

Hinata has run away!

"This guy is really naive!"

I nod in agreement.

"Wait a minute, what you said was honest---"

"Senpai, come quickly and eat dumplings together."

Are these juniors not able to read the situation or are they pretending to be stupid?

"Naruto, you still haven't eaten all your ramen."

He turned to look at his ramen bowl and told his juniors to start eating without waiting.

"I forgot that there was still some left." Thank you, Rei-chan."

"nevermind..."

I hate fake people the most.

Indignant glances were periodically sent from behind. Just look at the corner of your eye and you'll know.....

"Nice Rieya!" Ino who felt the same gave me a thumbs up.

“What are you guys doing? It's like sending a secret signal."

Choji....If that's the case, the whole village would know.

After finishing eating ramen, everyone dispersed and went home. Including me and Naruto.

Of course, before leaving, Ino asked Sakura the same question.

These two really are close friends since childhood.

"What were you talking about just now? Rei-chan is making a strange face."

"How strange?" I asked, tilting my head.

"What should I say....it looks like I'm about to cry?"

His eyebrows furrowed into a knot that made me laugh.

"But your face right now is so funny that I forgot about it, haha."

"What!? I'm going to be handsome."

"Yes, you can be handsome :)"

"Oh, that...."

I glimpsed behind a woman with long dark hair in a long skirt holding something under the light of an electric pole.

"Hinata, what are you doing here?"

Quicker than I thought, Naruto walked in and greeted me....

"Nah...Naruto-kun!"

Or is it because of that name....

I was distracted for a moment until I regained consciousness when Hinata ran away from her good male friend again.

Is today a day to run away from men or what!?

"Oh, wait a minute!"

I didn't chase after either of them.

Because he knows what the story will be like this time.

And what is even better known is the love that arises without realizing it from a close male friend.

that are probably too close to each other that the feelings are difficult to change into something else

I know very well....

"Naruto always liked Hinata."

Many people still don't believe my words.

Of course....even the good guy doesn't know his own heart.

And the more there are important variables like this person....the more the story escalates.

Everyone thought we secretly liked each other and started dating after the Great Ninja War.

Hinata herself had to invite them to sit down and talk to each other once.

Naruto doesn't know what other people think of our relationship. But I am a person who always knew everything but chose to keep it.

Because I was secretly happy and had a deep hope that one day he would pay attention.

But in his heart there was another woman for a very long time.....

If you secretly like someone You know how he feels. And I am like that too.

I've always looked up to him.....

Even Sakura, when he said he liked me, it was obvious he was just joking.

"Hinata!!!!" Naruto's shout made me regain my composure.

I rushed towards the source of the sound and saw a male friend standing among a strange black-robed army.

"You bitch! Give Hinata back!"

Hinata, who was asleep and unconscious, was picked up by one of these men and jumped onto the roof in front of their eyes.

"Naruto! Follow Hinata quickly. This way, I'll handle it myself!"

The frontman accepted and followed the enemy without much persuasion.

"Please give it to me, Rei-chan. Hurry and follow me!”

Naruto seems to have grown a lot.

"Alright....let's get on with the show, shall we?"

I rolled out the chakra accumulated throughout the day in the form of a mirror crystal.

These are puppets. I really miss the time when I competed with Kankuro.....

"Crystal Spell, Six Directions Seal!"

After that, I followed the two of them for a while until I saw a meteorite fall into an area not far from the village.

"Naruto! Hinata!"

I rushed towards them, examining Hinata's torso.

"I'm okay, Rieya-chan."

"Do you want me to send you home?"

"Oh....It's okay. Thank you."

"Don't be afraid. Let's all go together!"

This sentence was spoken by me after I couldn't stand listening to a conversation that made no progress at all.

After we sent Hinata home, we separated and returned to our own rooms.

"Rei-chan, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

I nodded and removed my hand from the doorknob. Follow Naruto into the room.

"That person named Toner is coming to get Hinata."

"Uh....Rei-chan. His name is Toneri^^;"

"Oh? I'm sorry."

"I still remember the names of the same bad people."

Don't smile like that. It makes me shake.

"Um....Come on! More importantly, we must protect Hinata.”

"Oh!"

No matter what story he always told me. You still have the same personality, Naruto.

The next day I received news that Hanabi had been kidnapped.

"This morning Kakashi-sensei gave Shikamaru, Sai, Sakura-chan, Hinata and me a mission to go find Hanabi."

"Good luck, Naruto."

I said as I watched my male friend pack up his things and get ready to go on a mission.

"Protect Hinata well!"

"Of course. I promise with my life."

Why do I feel like our relationship will be different this time?.....

Maybe I'm thinking too much.

"It's just over there."

I looked at my Hyuuga clan teammates who were frowning.

"Oh no....where are you talking about, Hasebe?"

“I asked if I wanted to eat dango or ice cream. Tenma wants to eat dango. As for me, I want to eat ice cream. So I want her to help me decide."

Most of my free time was spent with my teammates or Naruto.

"Let's eat ice cream."

"Yes! Do you see that today is suitable for eating ice cream?"

“Is it this cold!? They are not normal people.”

"It's okay to put on a sweater and a scarf. :)"

"By the way, is that a new scarf? The pattern is smooth, like a man's,” Hasebe said.

"Didn't you knit a blue scarf?" Tenma asked.

"Someone gave it to me." I grabbed the white and green striped scarf and thought about yesterday before leaving the room to eat ramen.

'Eh!? But your mother knitted it for me.'

'It's okay. Considered to be interchangeable'

Naruto quickly put the scarf on me before placing the sky-colored scarf I had knitted for him into my hands.

'Put it on for me, Rei-chan.'

'Ah...that's all right'

'I gave in because I was hungry'

I secretly smiled a little, smiled like a crazy person.

"Women have such creepy smiles."

I feel like I want to attack my friend in the middle of the road.

"If you're just being mean, you'll probably be in trouble in this life, Hasebe."

"I'm not interested in women anymore!"

"Does that mean you like men?"

"Dammit Tenma!"

I found out later that it was a new scarf I knitted for Naruto. It was the cause of a misunderstanding that almost escalated between the new couple of Konoha Village.

"Why do you guys have to switch scarves!?" Sakura shouted.

"Who would have thought that Hinata would knit a scarf for that one?"

"How do you act like a couple exchanging gifts for each other?" Ino said.

"Don't you regret it? They're dating now?" Tenten asked.

"I'm more than happy to see them together."

"What!?" Everyone let out a long sound.

"Well Naruto has liked Hinata for a long time."

"I think I used to say that often."

"Seeing that you're that close to that guy, who would believe you!?" Ino protested sharply.

"Saying they're together sounds more believable," Tenten said.

"Is it that much?"

"That's it!" Everyone said in unison.

Last night, Naruto came back from a mission to save the world (again) from the moon and came knocking on my door at around 3:00 AM.

'Rei-chan, I confessed my love to Hinata!'

'Oh, so what?...when! What do you say!?'

'I'm dating Hinata!'

From being sleepy, your eyes are brighter than drinking coffee.

After that, Naruto came into the room and recounted the events that happened during the mission. Most of the time, it focuses on the moments when the two were together.

'I've never felt this way about anyone before.'

Even me who have been together for so long that we are stuck together. I've just seen him make a face like that.

Sky-blue eyes sparkled sweetly. Smile wider than ever Both cheeks were flushed red. Looks a little embarrassed

This is the first time....

And of course, it was the face of someone in love.

Just like me four years ago New times of falling in love

After that, he told a story that was longer than a fairy tale until the sky was bright. So we invited each other to go out to eat ramen for breakfast.

"Are you going back now? Why don't you stay and eat snacks together for a bit?" Sakura asked.

“I have somewhere to go. Until next time."

“Rieya will definitely be heartbroken. Let's let her go first."

Even though I walked out of there But Ino's voice was so loud that everyone in the neighborhood could hear it.

I'm not heartbroken....

Because Naruto will always love me as family and friends first.

I think the same. Just maybe a little more than him.

But don't misunderstand. My love has long overcome the need for possession.

It is love that doesn't expect anything in return. Including the feelings he has for you.

I don't want Naruto to love me in the same way. Just hope that he is happy with the person he has chosen as his life partner.

No....I want to see him happy. Because Naruto's smile is everything to me in this world.

He is a light brighter than the sun.

He will remain in my heart forever.

Many years later....

The day I decided to seal those feelings away like they were crystallized in crystal.

"Sister Rieya is Naruto's important person! Say something."

"I don't know how to say this..."

"You speak like Iruka-sensei. 0"

"Oh? Haha. I guess I'm getting older."

"It feels good to be a big sister."

Is it your older sister? By the way, Naruto had said that.

'Rei-chan acts like an older sister.'

'I see Rei-chan as more than a friend, an important person, like a family member....'

'What about Rei-chan? What do you think of me?'

I can honestly confess that I stayed up all night thinking and could barely sleep. His eyes are panda bears and the Hasebes tease him all the time during missions.

"There's only Rieya and Iruka-sensei left. When I finish taking the photo, I'll show it to the Hokage."

After the matter of selecting people to attend Kakashi-sensei's wedding ceremony, a difference arises. It seems like everyone has relieved their stress about choosing a gift. But Konohamaru, who was responsible for recording the greeting clip, instead worked twice as hard.

"Then Iruka-sensei first."

"That's right. Let that one's most important person finish off."

"But father is important :)"

"I'm not that old yet!"

Didn't you receive news from Naruto that you agreed to be the groom's father?

"I'll see you in three days."

So fast....just three more days until their wedding day.

"Alright! The last one is the most important."

Konohamaru looked more excited than me-_-;

"Naruto, Hinata, congratulations on your marriage. May you both be happy. Hurry up and give me a child to play with :)"

To my first and only love....

"Oh, it's like being an important person. Plus the dialogue is weirder than everyone else's!"

And what are other people saying?

'Please protect Naruto, Bee-san!'

'No, don't bow your head, let's bump fists'

'She is the one in your heart. Even though the face looks familiar'

'Am I....in Naruto's heart?'

"They've come!"

After taking pictures with the girls for a while The bride and groom walked out.

'Yes, your words influenced that one.'

The happy faces of the two in their wedding dresses

'Because he sees you as important. Even rap doesn't even compare.'

The wedding ceremony has been completed. And now is the time when the bride and groom walk to greet the guests at the ceremony before entering the dormitory.

"Take good care of Hinata, Naruto."

"If you make Hinata sad, you'll be in trouble!"

The last sentence was spoken by Sakura.

"Oh, you can trust me!"

"Thank you, Rieya-chan, Sakura-chan."

Naruto and Hinata went to greet the other guests. As for me, I stood and ate the food at the event with Sakura, who is also a single woman.

Turning to the left, I saw Ino and Sai.

Turning to the right, you saw Shikamaru and Temari.

As for the girl next to me, she told me about Sasuke leaving a congratulatory letter.

I think the two of them will get together soon.

"Before the event ends, we have a special clip filmed by Konohamaru for you to watch."

"Hmm, aren't you going to let the Narutos go home and look at it!?"

"Things like this need to be opened at events so that everyone can see what they wish for themselves and others," said Hasebe, who had just separated from the Hyuuga clan.

"Oh my gosh, I want to bury my face in the ground!"

"You probably didn't say anything strange, Rieya _" Sakura looked at me with a puzzled look.

"That's cool."

As the clip came to a close, an image of a woman with long, light brown hair appeared. An emerald-eyed man in a white long-sleeved shirt covering his wrists. Blue knee-length skirt Which is none other than me.

The photos came out looking good, Konohamaru.

Is this an issue!?

'Naruto, Hinata, congratulations on your marriage. May you both be happy. Hurry up and give me a child to play with :)'

Hinata's face was redder than a tomato.

Naruto gave a thumbs up to say yes.

The others laughed throughout the event.

Anyway....I hope you're happy, Naruto.
