Where does time go? (StormgaleXShards)

[Shards~Of~Roses]

Hinata stood outside her apartment as she couldn't help but wonder when she would be called on. She knew that Naruto was busy with his job as Hokage of the Leaf village now. She had always believed he would, still she watched from the shadows never leaving the shadows to say anything to Naruto. The only time she had ever said anything to him about how she felt was when Pain had attacked. Though afterwards she acted like nothing happened as did Naruto. She wasn't sure if she was happy about that yet it also made it easier for her to talk with him.

While Hinata still had trouble speaking to Naruto without stuttering. She has grown in both how she acted and fought in the field. Still though not everything had changed while she could take charge she still stayed in the background unless it was truly needed for her to take charge. the village was the same for the most part only as she thought on the all the changes with her friend's life. Many of them were already at the starting to really get married and starting families. To her it was shocking yet at the same time a few of the Konoha 11 were still unmarried or even dating. From what she knew that was her, Kiba, Naruto, Sakura, and finally Shino.

Giving a sigh she jumped to the roof and made her way towards the training grounds she felt the need to get some training in if she wasn't needed. She knew how it was still important that she would be ready in case. Getting to the training grounds didn't take long at all as she got there she looked about as she heard the barks of a very familiar dog as she gave a soft smile at the thought of her good friend and old team member.

(Okay I think maybe we should start with them just seeing each other at the training grounds? then the messenger summoning them to Naruto could show up)
