So I've noticed the few number of Genma and Naruto fanfics out there. . . Guess what this is!

Yep, it's a GenmaxNaruto fanfic. Now this can be read on it's own, but let me warn you now, this will only give you a brief summary of what's actually happening plot-wise, so it'll skip some things.

Main Pairings: GenmaxNaruto, GaaraxOC, KakashixOC, ShikaTema, SasuHina

Just to make this clear, these chapters will appear in For You, but it'll be accompanied by the actual plot of For You. These are just some flashbacks all grouped together for an easier time to read!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this! If not, I hope you'll find something else amazing to read!

Naruto stretched, yawning in his mindscape. Kurama was taking a nap, saying he needed a break from dealing with Naruto. The blond just scowled in response.

He sighed and fell onto the surface of the water.

It was official, he was bored.

He had to wait for his bunshin to report back and now that Kurama was napping, he couldn't help but start thinking about life before everything went down the drain. Before Konoha was destroyed by an unknown enemy. When he spent his days at meetings or doing paperwork. Back before his friends passed away. He didn't want to be stuck in his own body, unable to move because his chakra was still in the process of replenishing itself. He was grateful he could at least make kage bunshin to check up on his friends. He didn't want them to be suffering.

He didn't expect Sasuke, Shikamaru, Hinata, and Manami to drag him back to the past with them. He had, with all honesty, used the time-reverse jutsu left in the Hokage desk as the last resort. He didn't expect to be back in the past as well.

With a sigh, he remembered when he first met his bodyguard/sensei. Right now, he was tempted to check up on the laidback brunet who was probably at a bar with Anko and Aoba.

The blond twenty-one year old shivered at the unwanted memory of his untimely death. Damn, I really didn't want to remember that... Come on Naruto, happy thoughts!

xXx

"What the heck's that?" Naruto raised an eyebrow and leaned over his desk. His white Hokage hat was hung on the back of his seat, allowing him to see better. The damn Hokage outfit was just too much! The hat and a light cloak was more than enough.

Sakura sighed and restrained the urge to punch her blond Hokage. Instead, she shoved the paper closer to the blond's face and pointed to the title while holding up a folder.

"This, Naruto, is the list of both active and non-active ANBU members," she answered.

Naruto leaned back. "Yeah? What about it?"

Sakura took a deep breath. Kami-sama have mercy on her. Was her friend really this dense? Ah, she gave up. With her right hand, she hit Naruto on his head. "Naruto! Were you even paying attention to the previous council meeting?!"

The blond rubbed his head and pouted pathetically. "Aww, come on Sakura-chan! Those geezers were so boring! I had to pinch myself to stay awake! I can't wait until everyone from our generation replaces them!"

Sakura sighed. "Naruto, I know you're excited, but you need to pay attention! This is extremely important!"

Forcing himself, his blue eyes narrowed at the paper in front of him, and he read the paragraph on the top. Then he blinked. "Wha? I need a bodyguard? What for? I can take care of myself!"

Thump!

"Baka!" Sakura yelled out, returning her arm back to her side, ignoring Naruto's yelp of pain. "Don't forget that there's still assassinations! Did you forget how many Tsunade-shishou had before she retired?!"

Silenced filled the air and Naruto sighed in defeat. Damn, he did remember. Of course, none of them succeeded, but that possibility of being killed was still very real even if he had a desk job now.

"Gomen, Sakura-chan," Naruto said, taking the paper and folder from her. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "I'll look through it during my lunch break." He held a hand up to stop her protest and gestured at the stacks of paperwork on his desk. So far, the paper only occupied his desk. He didn't know how long that would last though.

She scowled and crossed her arms. "Fine, but that better be the very first thing! Don't you dare get ramen before picking out your guards."

He nodded and she sighed, a fond, exasperated smile showed up on her face. "I just don't want you to get hurt Naruto. You've been injuring yourself for the sake of Konoha, so don't forget that you've got us."

He grinned. "Ah, don't worry Sakura-chan! I'll definitely have a list by the end of the day!"

She nodded. "Good. I'll be going then, I've got an operation to prepare for."

"See ya at 7?"

She rolled her eyes. "Baka, don't make it sound like a date. Everyone else from our generation's going to be there as well."

Ever since the Shinobi Nations became peaceful once more, everyone from his generation met up at different resturants to catch up. He pouted playfully. "You're no fun at all Sakura-chan!"

She laughed and walked out. "You're here, that's enough fun for me."

Naruto chuckled before he looked down at the paper and folder.

Then he looked at the stacks of paperwork.

"Eh, I'll do it later." He ignored the paperwork and began flipping through profiles of ANBU members. Some of the members he recognized, while others were a mystery.

When he came to Kakashi, Gai, and Yamato, he grinned. Man was he tempted to assign them as his guards just to bore them!

Then he shook his head as another thought appeared. "Nah, I'll just assign them new genin teams or something. Maybe I'll put Gai-sensei as an Academy teacher?"

Yeah, his prankster side liked the sound of that.

His eyebrows rose when he came across another familiar face. "Hey this guy with the senbon!"

He paused.

"What's his name again?"

"Shiranui Genma," came another voice.

Naruto fell back in his chair at the shock. "Itai!" He rubbed his head as he stood up.

His blue eyes met amused brown eyes. He scowled. "Hey! You're supposed to knock before you enter ya know! Sakura-chan would've had my head if I didn't knock!"

The older man smiled smugly. "I did knock. Your secretary told me enter after I waited for ten minutes."

Naruto stared at the man, his irritation fading away. "You did?"

"I did," he confirmed, shoving his hands into his pants' pockets.

Naruto chuckled awkwardly and rubbed the back of his head. "Ehehe... Oops, I guess I didn't hear."

His comment was met with silence.

"Uh," Naruto scrambled for a way to get rid of the awkward silence. "So what brings you here? Is there something I can do for you Genma-" he paused. How was he supposed to address this guy?

Genma was a few years older than Kakashi-sensei, but he wasn't a jonin, he was a tokubetsu jonin like Anko. He'd use -san then?

But it didn't really sound right.

He was tempted to not use an honorific at all, but Manami-chan told him it was kinda rude to not use an honorific, but then Hinata-chan added that using the wrong honorific could worsen a relationship!

Gah! What was he to do?!

Wait, was he even supposed to call the guy by his first name?

Oh shoot!

He remembered Manami adding how using first names was pretty intimate. Damnit, other than the Chuunin Exams, he didn't really see the other man very often.

"Uh, I mean Shiranui-san," he added, uncertain if he was being too formal or something. Plus, it kinda was weird using such formal wording...

"I'm fine with Genma," the brown-haired man replied. His senbon lifted up as he smiled lazily. "No need for formalities, I don't really care much for them."

"Ah, alright then, Genma-san." Naruto grinned and sighed in relief. Phew, that went well.

Then Naruto noticed the man was frowning. Ah shit, did I screw up on something?!

Then the frown disappeared. Genma looked at Naruto in the eyes. "Let me be your bodyguard."

Silence.

Complete.

Shocked.

Silence.

"Uh what?" Naruto managed to stammer out. Wow, he didn't know that would've caused his mind to stop so fast. He distantly could make out Kurama's snickers.

Stupid fox.

Stupid human.

Touché.

You don't even know what that means.

Ah shut it!

"I was on your father's guard platoon before he died," Genma began slowly, unaware of Naruto's inner banter. "After he died, I went into ANBU for seven years until I was honorably discharged for mental safety." He smirked. "But during my time as an ANBU, I was assigned to watch this brat who became a prankster."

Naruto gaped. He was sure his jaw was touching the floor. Then suddenly, he realized why he didn't notice Genma's entrance. The man's chakra had been something he had grown used to as he grew up.

"Holy crap! You! You're-you're-"

Genma smirked, a sight that really should've been illegal for the ovaries that were bound to explode. "Ryuu."

Naruto's jaws didn't move from the ground. Genma's smirk, however, didn't do much to the young Hokage. Then again, he never was the brightest with romance. *coughShionandHinatacough*

Then the door slammed open.

Naruto jumped up at the slam and Genma looked over at the door, somewhat annoyed at being interrupted.

"Iruka-sensei?!"

The chuunin glared but for once, it wasn't directed at Naruto. "I knew it!" The chuunin pointed at Genma. "I thought I felt something was going to happen!"

Naruto stared at Iruka. What was his old sensei talking about?

Genma raised an eyebrow and his smirk disappeared into an amused smile. "So Aoba was right when he said you had a Mother Hen's instincts."

Iruka glared and walked in front of Naruto who was still confused. "Naruto!"

"Yeah?" the blond warily answered back. Wow, his sensei had not lost his touch on getting him to behave. Despite being Hokage, he suddenly felt like he was an Academy student again.

"Genma is very dangerous! I can't let him be with you 24/7! You'd lose something very important!"

"Wha?" Naruto furrowed his brows together, trying to make sense of whatever Iruka-sensei was talking about.

Genma sighed, but his eyes were bright in amusement. He couldn't wait to tell Aoba and Anko. "I won't try anything on him, Iruka." I can wait, he added mentally. For a short time anyways.

The chuunin shook his head, feeling like there was definitely something Genma was leaving out. "You say that now but-"

"Iruka-sensei! What are you guys talking about?!" Naruto shouted out, standing up from his chair. "Dammit! I'm right here! Don't I get a say in this?!"

Iruka frowned. Ah, he got carried away. "Ah, gomen Naruto-kun. It's just that I had a bad feeling."

Truth be told, Iruka had been in the middle of organizing lessons when he felt a shiver crawl up his spine. At first, he shook it off, but when he thought of Naruto, instead of pride, he felt panic. Then, he was out faster than the coffee in the teachers' lounge.

Iruka's glare reappeared as his gaze fell to Genma. "And I was right to be worried!"

Naruto blinked once. Then twice. "What?"

Was Genma a dangerous criminal?

Nah, that wasn't it. After all, the man was in ANBU. Hmm, Naruto seriously didn't get it. What made Iruka-sensei so panicked for him?

Then the dark, menacing air around Iruka only grew heavier.

"Naruto," Iruka began slowly, looking straight at Genma, "This man here will take away that previous thing you hold so dear to you before you even realize it."

Hmm.

Nope.

Naruto still didn't get it.

"What's he gonna take?" Naruto asked cluelessly. His Hokage hat? Gamma-chan? Miss Tsubaki, his plant at home?

Iruka stopped, eyes wide. "What?"

Naruto rolled his eyes and flailed his arms. "I don't know what Genma's going to take away from me!"

Silence.

Then Genma began chuckling.

Iruka blushed in mortification and stammered, "Err, you don't know? I-I mean I guess you did skip that lesson now that I think about it..."

Naruto leaned forward, eyes hopeful. "Then could ya quickly teach me, Iruka-sensei?"

Before Iruka could even answer, Genma smirked, seeing a great opportunity. "Why don't I teach you? I'm much more experienced in that area."

Naruto grinned, completely oblivious to what Genma really meant, "Really?! Sweet! Wow! I can't believe someone knows more than Iruka-sensei!"

Iruka paled. Then he shook his head. "No! I'm fine helping you with that subject!"

Genma raised an eyebrow. "Ah, but I can give you hands-on experience."

Iruka scowled. "I'll make sure you're not violated!"

Genma smirked again at Naruto who could only gape. Was he being fought over as a student? That was a definite first. "The lessons will be at comfortable places," Genma offered, "I'll even buy you ramen."

Naruto looked over at Genma. "Free ramen?"

The man nodded. "You won't pay a thing."

Iruka shook his head furiously. "No! Don't fall for his tricks Naruto! He's a womanizer! He knows how to work your heart!"

Naruto paused at Iruka's comment. "So he knows how I think?"

Iruka nodded, a grateful smile on his face. "Yes! That's why it's dangerous!"

The blond Hokage looked down in thought. Huh, someone who understands how I think?

Seeing his student's pensive frown, Iruka continued trying to damn Genma. Who cares if the brown-haired man would tell this to Aoba and Anko! His old student's chastity was at stake here!

"What's more, he even knows what your habits are, your likes and dislikes, and where you now live!" Iruka was sure this new information would creep Naruto out! As a matter of fact, Iruka did go out, just not very often. Every time he went to a bar, he always found Genma, Aoba, and Anko there. The long, brown-haired man occasionally brought up Naruto, but it was enough that Iruka became cautious.

Naruto's brows rose up. "What? How does he know that?"

"I have my ways," Genma replied vaguely. Really, it was almost as though he wasn't there at all. However, he was starting to become slightly apprehensive. Iruka's sudden appearance was unexpected and now, the chuunin was doing his best to freak Naruto out.

It wasn't his fault he overheard things during his bar visits and that he liked being up to date about his Hokage. Naruto looked away from the other men, and Genma mentally cursed at Iruka. There goes his chance of trying to get to know the Yondaime's son.

The only blond in the room sighed dramatically and hummed. Then he grinned at Iruka. "Thanks Iruka-sensei! I wasn't really sure, but now I'm 100% sure!"

The chuunin smiled and hoped that the dread in his stomach was going to disappear soon.

Then his worst nightmare came true.

His ex-student turned to Genma. "When are you free?" Naruto asked, tilting his head slightly with a grin.

The other men blinked at their Hokage.

Naruto huffed and crossed his arms. "What? Sasuke told me that as Hokage, I needed to choose the best choice!"

Iruka shook his head to clear away his shock. "B-but why?!"

Naruto smiled, completely clueless. "Well you said he understood me right? Manami-chan and Hinata-chan always told me to follow my heart when I'm in a pinch! If Genma understands me, then that's pretty awesome! I even get free ramen! Plus, Kakashi-sensei told me I learn better doing things by experience!"

Iruka heard cracks-make that shattering glass. Billions of shattering glass to be exact.

Ah, so that's what it was like to have your world destroyed in front of your eyes.

He just couldn't believe it!

Naruto had learned important lessons from his friends, but they were being applied the wrong way!

Genma smirked; the smugness of victory over Iruka radiating off the man, which only made Iruka more irritable. "I'm free right now," he answered to Naruto in a smooth, suave voice.

It didn't have the intended effect on Naruto who grinned (completely oblivious to the atmosphere Genma was trying to set) back instead of blushing like mad.

"Sweet! I'll do my paperwork later!" He paused and hummed before grinning at Genma again. "I'll just tell Sakura-chan you're my new bodyguard or something! Let's go eat ramen to celebrate!"

Iruka was too shell-shocked to move as his favorite student exited the office with Genma.

Then he remembered that Genma would definitely be telling this to Anko.

"Hey! My favorite dango-making guy with a sexy scar! What a coincidence."

The gods were laughing at Iruka weren't they?

-To Be Continued-

xXx

Ah, I really enjoy writing Naruto being oblivious to anything to do with romance. So was Genma in character? I based him off of the Genma I usually see when he's paired up with Ino because it's pretty fun writing him as a lazy, possessive pervert. Ah, a seme that treats his uke nicely~! When not in bed ;) ...I need to get my head out of the gutter XD

Anyway, hope you enjoy! (I wonder if I should tell them that this is probably gonna hurt?)
