Tsunade sat on the hospital bed silently in her private hospital room, her back propped up with a few pillows, watching the door.
Watching.
Waiting.
"Yah wanted to see me, Tsunade-o-baa-chan?" came a voice as the bouncy 15-year-old blonde entered the room, wearing his trademark orange as usual.
Tsunade nodded silently, watching as Sakura and Shizune stood in the doorway, they having delivered the message that Tsunade wanted to see to Naruto.
Naruto stood at the end of the bed, his eyes dragging over the numerous machines connected to Tsunade's arms and organs, keeping her alive for the time being.
Sound had been defeated. Akatsuki had been destroyed. Sasuke had avenged his family, but died a few hours afterwards...
And Tsunade had protected the village from thousands of enemy ninjas... But was mortally wounded...
She only had a week to live...
Tsunade raised a hand and motioned for Naruto to come closer.
Naruto nodded and walked over to her side.
Tsunade repeated the motion.
Naruto gave a small sigh and came closer.
Tsunade grabbed naruto by the collar and yanked him toward her.
"GAH! WTF!" squeaked Naruto as he was yanked forward.
Tsunade's lips brushed against Naruto's ear as she whispered something to him. The fox's eyes widened.
Sakura gave Shizune a questioning look, and Shizune merely sighed, smiling at the sight before her.
Tsunade smiled and let go of Naruto's collar, settling back into her feather pillows and watched him.
Naruto had the 'shocked-shitless' look on his face, staring at Tsunade.
Tsunade smiled and Naruto's eyes slowly filled with tears, the young fox bit his lip.
"You're... You're not... serious, are you...?" the edges of Naruto's mouth tweaked upwards, the tears trickling down his cheeks.
"Dead serious." the Hokage breathed, smiling up at the fox.
Naruto's eyes filled with more tears and he quickly wrapped his arms around Tsunade, crying into her neck, making sure he did not disturb the tubes and things going into the hokage.
Tsunade smiled and wrapped an arm around Naruto, stroking his spiky blonde hair with the other.
After a few minuets, Naruto had settled down, stopped crying and let go of Tsunade, a little reluctantly though, he kinda liked being smooshed against Tsunade's huge, warm and soft boobs.
Tsunade smiled and motioned for Shizune and Sakura to come forward.
They did.
"Let me introduce... The sixth Konoha Hokage... Rokudiame Hokage... Uzumaki Naruto!"
Sakura's jaw dropped. Shizune's smile widened. Tsunade smiled proudly and Naruto beamed at them all, wiping his tears of joy from his face.
Shizune stepped forward and hugged the new Hokage.
"Congratulations, Naruto-kun! or should i say; 'Rokudaime-sama'?" grinned Shizune, letting the beaming fox go.
Naruto just grinned and shrugged, then he felt something soft press against his cheek and blinked. as Sakura's lips moved away from Naruto's cheek, both the fox and Sakura blushed a little.
"C... Congratulations, Naruto." smiled Sakura, scrubbing at one of her burning cheeks.
Naruto was bright pink, and all he could choke out was "... Y...Yeah!"
All of them grinned at each other and Sakura noticed Naruto's smile slowly slip from his face.
"What's wrong, Naruto...?" Sakura asked, blinking. Being Hokage had always been Naruto's dream...
"Can we have the ceremony in a few days time? I..." Naruto looked at Tsunade's side, at all the machines attached to her. "I want Tsunade-o-baachan to be there..."
Sakura looked at Shizune and Shizune smiled softly.
"I'll see what we can do."
