Grown Up Christmas List

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto...SADLY

Hinata sighed as she took a walk through central park, it was winter in NYC and so there were Christmas Lights everywhere. Steet lamps light the way as Hinata stepped down the path. There were mostly couples strolling through the park at this time of night, just enjoying each others company. Hinata looked on at them longingly, wishing she had that special someone to spend Christmas with. But sadly she didn't and this would be another Christmas alone.

As Hinata got deeper into the park, she started to hum softly, passing Strawberry Fields before actually, absentmindedly, turning into song.

Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies

Hinata started to gracefully twirl in a circle, as snowflakes fell against her pale smooth skin and rosy cheeks. Her hair flew our around her and she continued to the famous white bridge.

Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream

Hinata stared at the frozen lake/pond, watching the very few Ice skaters still left at this hour of the night. She smiled and continued onward, looking at the ground as she walked and then looking at the sky.

So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need

Hinata turned to her left to see a mom and her child sitting on a bench, sharing a warm pretzel and hot chocolate. She smiled at the scene and they smiled back. Feeling a little better she continued on her journey, with no particular destination in mind.

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal the heart
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end oh,
This is my grown up Christmas list

Hinata walked under a bridge and twoards a huge fountain, finally taking rest upon it. She fiddled with the tassles as she kept singing.

As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something shiny
Wrapped beneath the tree But heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul

Hinata was so caught up in singing that she didn't realize someone had sat down next to her, smiling as she sung.

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
Oh, This is my grown up christmas list

The blonde haired man smiled at her voice, it was truly very pretty.

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth

Yet so was she.

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown up christmas list
This is my only life long wish

"This is my grown up christmas list." Hinata sang the last note perfectly as she finally opened her eyes to see a very cute, very handsome and muscular man, next to her. She blushed as her eyes widened and she quickly looked away.

"You have beautiful voice you know, you shouldn't be shy." Hinata brought her head up to meet this young mans eyes. They were the prettiest shade of piercing blue she had ever seen, and his whisker marks were unique.

"T-Thank Y-you but i-if you don't m-m-mind me a-a-asking w-what is s-someone such as y-y-yourself doing a-alone on C-christmas?" The man laughed heartily and replied.

"I suppose I could ask you the same thing... Hinata." Hinata gasped in surprise, 'How can he know my name?!'

"How d-d-do you know m-m-my name?" The man smiled warmly and replied.

"You could say we used to be part of the same life style, I know the business world." Hinata nodded in understanding, as they then both looked up at the stars. She never did learn his name, but no other words were shared between them, because their eyes said it all.

Maybe she didn't have to be alone this Christmas. And maybe he didn't either.
