After Sakura finished to heal her teammates, Team 7 went to the place people were still imprisoned in the tsukuyomi. Naruto and Sasuke undid the jutsu waiting for people around the place to finally wake up and be released from the illusion they were trapped in. Smiles were showing and even cheers could be heard. People knew what that meant, they had won the war.

Naruto couldn't help but look around restlessly, he was tired, the fight with his friend almost killed him but there was nothing else on his mind right now : he had to see her. The place was crowded by people from every villages, the ninjas were finding their comrades, hugging each others, they were all happy to know that it finally ended. The war over.

Naruto was still looking around until he catched the sight of the person he really wanted to see at this moment. She was looking right back at him, her hand on her chest, he could notice her smile and the relief she had on her face when she saw him. He held his breath for a moment still watching her, she was examining him, her eyes were slowly moving down his right arm. She opened her mouth as if she was about to shout something but she didn't. Her smile vanished at the view of his wound. His heart had stopped at the sight of her expression. She was about to cry. He knew it, she was biting her lips desperately wanting to hold back the tears. His body moved before he even knew it, he was walking toward her, whispering her name. They weren't that far from each other - or so he thought but he actually was walking as fast as his legs could - so it took her by surprise when Naruto held his arm on her back to press her against him,her eyes widened and she gasped at the embrace. The move was gentle but tight as if she was going to disappear at any minute. The world stopped moving around them, nothing else mattered as he was holding her, his thoughts were all going to her. Naruto had this deep need to hold her after everything that happened, he couldn't help but sigh a little with contentment, his body responding to hers with satisfaction as if they were pieces missing from each other.

He was still holding her when he felt her arms around his waist, he could feel her fingers grabbing his shirt. He realized at her action that he was panting, he hadn't been breathing since the moment he saw her.

"Hinata..." he whispered, moving his chin on her head taking the change to inhale her scent. He closed his eyes. Nothing counted more at that moment than holding her against him. She murmured a lot of things about him being safe, his arm, the war, the death ...but how relieved she was to see him. He hushed her moving his hand on her shoulder, now looking at her. He was smiling, a real Naruto's smile. She smiled back
