Hey guys

Chapter has been edited as of June 2010

Two near naked forms snuggled into each other under the blankets. The boy was the first to open his eyes and look down at the still sleeping girl, her red hair slightly covering her brown eyes. He smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead, the events of last night still fresh in his mind. With a little effort he managed to disentangle himself from her and stand up, only to leave the girl grasping the pillow in an attempt to recover the lost warmth. He chuckled and walked into the bathroom, which was much larger than his previous one, and began brushing his teeth.

The girl woke up to a feathery softness, not the usual warmth that she was accustomed to. Her head snapped up, scanning the bedroom for any signs of her new lover, but she found none. Had he broken his promise and left because of the fear of her becoming pregnant? She jumped out of bed to check the bathroom. The sound of water running calmed her nerves a little but she still needed to make sure it was him inside. When the door was opened he boy turned around with a smile that warmed her heart and made her feel silly at the same time.

"Morning Tayuya-chan. How did you sleep?"

Tayuya walked into the bathroom, grabbing him around the waist. Naruto stared at her strangely. "Fine Shithead," she mumbled over his shoulder.

"Okay...so do you want some breakfast?"

Tayuya met his eyes. "I'd like that."

Naruto gave her a little peck before departing to the kitchen to find something that was easy to fix and that he wouldn't burn. After rummaging through the fridge for a minute he decided on eggs since they were relatively simple because he had seen them made in the past. Tayuya came into the living room a few minutes later to the sound of something sizzling, which meant her boyfriend was either burning something or by some amazing miracle of Kami making them a decent breakfast. She saw it was the latter when Naruto set a plate in front of her of eggs and some cold water. The redhead laughed at his appearance, clothes splotched in different places with egg yolk.

"How is it?" He asked as she slipped some into her mouth.

Tayuya jostled the food around for a minute before swallowing. At least he hadn't accidentally poisoned her.

"Pretty good Shithead. Let me help next time though."

"You know how to cook?"

Tayuya shook her head. "No, but I'm sure I could do a better job."

"Hey I tried hard! You'd probably do a worse job than me anyway." Naruto crossed his arms. Before he knew it the redhead was in his face.

"You think so?"

The blonde moved his face closer to hers. "I know so Tayuya-chan. I've seen Teuchi make eggs for ramen before so I know how they're made."

Tayuya poked him in the chest. "That doesn't mean shit. How about you wait while I fix you something?"

Naruto shrugged. "Go ahead. Don't burn the apartment down."

Tayuya gave him a playful shove and walked to the fridge. After taking out several eggs she stared at them for a moment. She turned the stove on; setting the heat to a level she thought wasn't too hot. After staring at the little white oval shaped things she shrugged and chose to just wing it. Tayuya cracked one open over the pan. It landed inside and turned white in a few seconds. The redhead fought the coming panic; her eggs hadn't been white with yellow in the middle. She grabbed for the spatula and flipped the thing, but it still stayed white, the yellow in the middle now beginning to become solid.

Naruto stayed away from the kitchen for fear of being caught on fire. It was twenty minutes later when Tayuya finally returned and hesitantly put a plate in front of him. Naruto stared at it for a moment, wondering how she managed to turn the entire thing white. Instead of asking he took a tentative bite of the food, chewing it for a moment. Tayuya stood waiting for his evaluation and received her answer when he began scarfing down the food in earnest, even going so far as to scrape off the remaining bits with his utensils.

Naruto sighed happily. "How did you learn how to make that Tayuya-chan? It was better than any eggs I ever made."

Despite her smug grin on the outside the redhead was jumping for joy inside. He liked her cooking. "It's a secret Shithead."

"You've got to make that again tomorrow." He stretched. "I'm going to take another shower. Still have some yolk in my hair." Naruto left to the bedroom.

Tayuya followed. "Me too. All that shit got on my clothes and now I'm all sticky."

"We should learn to be a little less messy," Naruto stated while stepping into the shower, removing his boxers.

"You're worse than me Shithead. How the fuck did you get it in your hair? It's shorter than mine." Tayuya stepped in as well, removing her nightgown a little more hesitantly.

Naruto turned on the water. "I still made a pretty good breakfast though Tayuya-chan."

He began washing himself, paying no attention to the redhead behind him as she sat on one of the platforms. When he finished he turned to hand her the washcloth. Tayuya blushed, grabbing the thing and taking his place. As Naruto sat there he noticed her taking several glances back over her shoulder as if she wanted something.

"You need something Tayuya-chan?"

"Could you um...never mind Shithead." The redhead resumed washing herself.

Naruto walked behind her, taking the small washcloth. "You want me to wash you again?"

"I-If you want to. Since we're together now, I just thought..."

"All you had to do was ask Tayuya-chan. You can do me tomorrow since I'm already clean."

The redhead nodded. She sighed happily as the smooth cloth passed over her skin, washing her tenderly in all places. He didn't avoid her private places, only choosing to be more careful with those than the rest of her body. As he washed her shoulder he began planting butterfly kisses on them, all the way up to her neck. Naruto pulled her back onto one of the platforms, her back resting against his front, and resumed washing her. Tayuya leaned back into him, her head coming to rest on one of his shoulders as his arms went under hers and started scrubbing the area around her breasts. The redhead gasped as he chose to squeeze one while scrubbing the other, making a certain heat start to rise in her lower regions. Before he could continue any further a loud ring sounded throughout the apartment, startling both teens.

Tayuya looked around. "What the hell was that?"

He shrugged. "I think we have a doorbell now. I wonder who it is."

"It's the whore." Tayuya stood. "She's the only one who knows where we live now."

"I'll go let her in then. Be right back."

Naruto gave her a kiss and stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel around his waist. Water dripped from his hair but he paid it no mind. The ring sounded again, causing him to hurry to get the door open before Sakura left. He opened the door with one hand, using the other to hold up the towel around his waist. Sakura eyes widened as she realized what he was in.

"Morning Sakura-chan. Come in."

Sakura nodded stupidly. Naruto attempted to close the door only to have a foot make it's between it and the frame.

The copy nin poked his head in. "Is that any way to treat your sensei, Naruto?"

"Kakashi-sensei?" The blonde pulled some hair from his eyes to make sure. "What are you doing here?"

"I came to bring you some fruit," Kakashi held up a basket, "but when I arrived at your apartment it was empty. So what have-"

"Shithead! Where are you!"

"I'll be right there Tayuya-chan!" Naruto called over his shoulder.

It was then that Kakashi took in his student's appearance. He'd thought it odd that Naruto would only come to the door in a towel but had discarded the thought as the boy just being absentminded again. Now though, he had time to look at the numerous scratch marks lining his back. The small bite mark on his shoulder that had reddened, meaning it had been placed there recently. He turned his gaze upward just to make sure he was right, and met the gaze the redhead ex-sound kunoichi only in a towel, standing in the doorway to the bedroom. When Tayuya noticed him she immediately closed the door, mumbling about perverts. Before Naruto could say another word to his sensei he took off. Kakashi had to hurry and find a place to remove his mask so that he didn't nearly drown in his own blood again. The blonde shrugged and set the basket down in the middle of the end table, telling Sakura he'd be back.

"What the fuck took so long?" Tayuya asked as he stepped back into the bedroom.

"Kakashi-sensei wanted to talk."

"Fucking pervert." Tayuya blushed again. "So...are you going to finish?"

Naruto walked into the shower, grabbing the cloth on his way in. A few minutes later they returned to the living room, both dressed. Tayuya was much more placated because of her wash. Sakura sat on the middle couch, playing with her bangs. The redhead chose to lay down on one of the larger couches while Naruto took a seat next to the bubblegum haired girl.

"So Sakura-chan what are you here so early for?"

"I just wanted to spend time with you." Sakura smiled and gave him a kiss. Tayuya lay on the other couch with her eyes closed. The feeling of Naruto's hands still present on her skin.

"What do you want to do?"

"Did you eat already?" Sakura questioned.

He nodded "Tayuya-chan made some eggs but I'm still kinda hungry. I was thinking of stopping for ramen on my walk around the village."

"How about I make something else?" She suggested.

"Like what?"

"You'll know when I'm done." Sakura moved to the kitchen.

Naruto felt like one of the luckiest people in the world. Two breakfasts? For free? Life sure was good. He was so deep into thought he didn't notice Tayuya walk into the kitchen after Sakura, a victorious grin on her face.

"Make me some too whore. I'm still hungry."

"You could say please," Sakura said while taking out a pan.

"I could," the redhead replied.

Sakura rolled her eyes. Tayuya started fidgeting nervously, drumming her fingers on the counter top.

"It uh...It happened," Tayuya said with a small red tint on her cheeks.

"Hm? What happened?" The pink haired girl asked while taking out a few glasses.

Naruto's stare hadn't left the ceiling. He planned to introduce Tayuya to the rest of the genin today so that she wouldn't be alone when he left. He knew a few of them would be reluctant to accept her but they would in time. A grudge couldn't be held forever. His thoughts were interrupted by a loud crashing sound in the kitchen following a few choice curse words from Tayuya. He stood up and poked his head around the corner. Sakura and Tayuya were quickly picking up several broken glasses.

"Everything okay?" The blonde questioned.

"Fine!" Sakura replied a little too fast.

"Whore's just clumsy." Sakura glared at her fellow kunoichi.

"Gomen Naruto-kun. Just go wait on the couch while we finish."

The blonde went to go sit back on the couch, allowing himself to be drawn back into his previous thoughts.

"I'm clumsy! You would have done the same thing if I told you that!" Sakura whispered angrily.

"You're fucking crazy. I know how to control myself whore."

"Really?" Sakura inquired while dumping the broken glass in the trash. "So what if I told you we already did it?"

Tayuya stared at her for a moment. Sakura only innocently stared back.

"You fucking bitch! We had a deal!"

Sakura held up her hands in defense. "I was only kidding!"

Tayuya huffed. "I'm going to ask Shithead just in case."

"You're going to ask him whether he and I had sex? I thought you didn't like detail."

The redhead palmed her face. "I don't. I'm not going to ask how you did it! You're fucking nasty."

Sakura shrugged. "Go ahead, we didn't. So...did it fit?"

Tayuya wasn't sure what look she sent the pinkette, but knew it delivered the 'are you stupid' message she intended. "Of course it fucking fit! Why the hell wouldn't it!"

"I was just asking!" Sakura drew imaginary circles on the countertop. "Since, you know, I'm going to be doing it too soon. I'm a little nervous."

Tayuya palmed her face again. "I told you I wasn't giving any damn details. There's no fucking reason to be nervous. Shithead's pretty...gentle."

"How much did it hurt?"

The redhead sighed. "A lot. But it got better."

"Did it feel-"

"I told you no details! Shit!" Tayuya threw her hands up in frustration. "You'll know when it happens."

"How did it end? I mean did you-"

The redhead put a hand over Sakura's mouth to silence her. She sighed loudly.

"Yes I did. It was fucking great, one of the best fucking experiences in my life. He did too. We didn't use protection. Is that enough information for you?"

"No protect-"

"We forgot. I'm going in the living room with Shithead. Call us when the food is ready."

Sakura nodded and began to prepare the meal. She wanted to be with Naruto too but not so soon after he had been with Tayuya. She wanted it to be special, something she'd never forget. The bubblegum haired kunoichi continued cooking breakfast, her curiosity about Tayuya's and Naruto's activities still plaguing her mind.

"Tayuya-chan who do you know in Konoha?"

She took a seat next to him. "Um Ditz, Pineapple head, his fat ass friend, Bun-head, Pigtails, The little prick, his sick friend, Nurse, Bimbo, Bimbo's assistant, the old pervert, Ramen girl, Tramp, Anko, The one eyed pervert, and Whore."

"Why doesn't Anko get a nickname?"

"Because I haven't thought of one. Plus she doesn't seem as fucked up as everyone else in this village."

Naruto gave her a look as if to say 'are you serious' before sitting back again. "Crazy snake lady."

Tayuya poked him. "Why the hell do you call her that?"

"She drinks blood!"

Naruto received a skeptical look and a raised eyebrow from the redhead.

"It's true! It happened during the chuunin exams!"

The blonde proceeded to tell her about the story, with many exaggerated details. By the end Tayuya was shaking her head disbelievingly and chuckling. At this time Naruto went over the list in his head to make sure he knew everyone she was talking about. She still hadn't met Iruka-sensei so that could be their first stop. He would probably be teaching at the academy but Naruto was never one not to interrupt class. Sakura slid a plate into his lap a few moments later. Tayuya pulled away from his side and began analyzing her plate as well.

Naruto looked down into his bowl to see...ramen. While not disappointed in the least, he had expected something different. He slipped his utensils in and put some noodles in his mouth, then paused. It was a strange flavor. Even after moving the noodles around in his mouth for a few minutes he couldn't find out. Tayuya had a separate dish of pancakes and bacon.

"What is this Sakura-chan?"

"Sakura's special," She replied while smiling.

"It's pretty good. What's in the broth?"

"It's a secret. What are we doing after this?"

"You made me special ramen?"

"Hai. Ayame showed me a few things."

Naruto jumped up and hugged the med nin in training. Special ramen for breakfast? How much better could it get? For a second the thought taking the girls with him crossed his mind. The positives were clearly beginning to gain ground on the negatives.

The blonde stood. "We're going around Konoha so Tayuya-chan can meet everyone."

Tayuya groaned. "Do I have to? Everyone in this village is a fucking idiot."

Naruto walked into the kitchen with his and Sakura's dish. "I have to make sure you'll be safe while I'm gone."

"I can take care of myself Shithead," she called after him.

"I want you to meet everyone though! Please Tayuya-chan?"

"Fine! Stop you sorry ass whining. Let's go." Tayuya walked out of the door.

"Wait Tayuya-chan!" Naruto hurriedly set his plate in the sink and pulled Sakura along after the redhead. After some traveling through various districts they finally reached the academy. Naruto barged into Iruka's class, causing several academy students to look up from their papers. He began talking despite the surprised look on his old sensei's face.

"Iruka-sensei can you call a break?"

Iruka did a double take. "They're in the middle of a test right now Naruto. I can't"

"Come outside then."

Iruka sighed and exited the classroom, but not before telling the class to resume their tests. As he closed the door he met Naruto's and Sakura's smiling faces along with some other girl he didn't recognize.

"Can I help you Naruto?"

Naruto pulled Tayuya to the front so that she and Iruka would be face to face. "This is Tayuya-chan. She's my girlfriend." Tayuya's cheeks heated.

"Okay...hello Tayuya-san. Nice to meet you." Iruka extended his hand and gave Tayuya a firm handshake.

"Couldn't this have waited until later Naruto?" The chuunin asked.

"No. I'm leaving in three months and I need to make sure Tayuya-chan is safe."

"Safe from what?"

"Orochimaru," the blonde stated as though it meant nothing.

"You're that new kunoichi from the sound?" Iruka asked incredulously. Tayuya nodded.

"She's your girlfriend?" Naruto smiled. Sakura coughed from behind him.

"Oh, Sakura-chan's my girlfriend too."

Iruka's stare switched to all three teenagers before he heaved a large sigh. "You've always been unpredictable. I have get back to my class but we should all eat together sometime, and talk; especially me and you Naruto." Iruka half-lectured half-warned. "It was nice meeting you Tayuya."

"You too Scar Face."

Iruka quickly turned back but the three were already halfway down the hallway. He shook his head and returned to his classroom. Naruto would be one to pick a former enemy kunoichi to be his girlfriend. It was just more proof that the boy could indeed change people.

The three continued to walk around the village until they reached team nine's training grounds. Naruto and Sakura quickly pulled Tayuya to the side before she could see anyone who was training in the area at the moment. The redhead started to protest but she was silenced by the grave look on Sakura's face. Naruto remained his usual self but she could see something hidden behind his eyes.

"Tayuya have you met Gai-sensei or Lee yet?" Sakura asked.

The redhead shook her head.

The medic nin in training sighed. This would be an experience that would change Tayuya's entire definition of the word 'shinobi' when it came to the hidden leaf. "When you meet them...you might be a little...surprised."

"Why the hell would I be?"

"They're...unique people. Just please don't say anything rude to Gai-sensei or Lee."

Tayuya scoffed. "I'll say what I want to. If they can't take it it's their fucking problem, not mine."

Naruto smiled as he continued heading into the training ground. There were rare moments when Tayuya would be surprised and he enjoyed them whenever they occurred. This would most certainly be the biggest shock she'd experience while in Konoha. He contemplated heading home and slipping on the green jumpsuit that Gai had given to him a few months back but then he doubted she would talk to him if he did such a thing.

So, instead of thinking about anymore, he resumed smiling as they walked in on the team during their stretches. Gai's back was to them as he was bending over doing toe touches. Naruto had to fight the laughter that nearly erupted from his throat when he saw Tayuya's surprised and disgusted expression. It didn't make it any better than the jounin turned around with a smile that was complimented by his signature 'ping' near the end.

"Naruto! It's been some time!"

"Hey Gai-sensei, Tenten, Fuzzy brows, Neji."

"Yosh! You must be Tayuya-san!" Lee energetically pointed a finger at the slack-jawed redhead. "Naruto-kun has told us much about you!"

Neji met Tayuya's eyes for seconds before resuming his training with Tenten, who waved to the redhead before getting back into her fighting stance. The ex-sound kunoichi was still trying to figure out where the two shinobi had received such ridiculous clothing. What the hell was wrong with their eyebrows? Were they even supposed to grow that big? Before she could ponder this any further the smaller of the two evils started yelling again with his hand extended in front of him, a thumb in the air.

"I am the Handsome Devil of the Hidden Leaf Village! Rock Lee!"

Tayuya stared at the boy for few seconds trying to find out why he considered himself handsome with that...thing on. It definitely wasn't doing anything for his appearance. The redhead switched her gaze to thumbs up and wondered why he would do such a corny gesture, knowing no one else in the five shinobi countries would imitate it. Tayuya realized she spoke too soon when the bigger copy jumped right behind the other one, doing the same gesture.

"And I am the Green Beast of the Hidden Leaf Village! Maito Gai!"

Tayuya turned expectantly toward the other two members of team nine, waiting for the Hyuuga's introduction as well. When he looked back at her he shook his head, obviously the serious one of the group. Tenten held her hands up in defense while shaking hers also.

"Not me. That's just Gai-sensei and Lee."

Tayuya swung around to face Sakura and Naruto. They weren't even affected by what had just transpired directly in front of her.

"Like I said. Fucking idiots. Can we go home now Shithead?"

"Gai-sensei is the best at taijutsu in this village. Lee is right behind him," Sakura explained, making the green duo beam at the praise.

Tayuya jerked a thumb behind her. "He's the best at taijutsu? How the hell is that even possible?"

"THROUGH THE FLAMES OF YOUTH!" Two voices erupted from behind her, startling the redhead. She turned back to glare at the two who had all but shouted into her ear. Tayuya stared, surprised and a little amazed, to see both of their eyes were consumed by fire in what must have been some sort of genjutsu.

"My pupil and I train our bodies past our limits every day! I could not be more lucky to have such a fine student!"

"No Gai-sensei! It is I who am lucky to have such a strong and smart sensei! Without you I am nothing!"

"LEE!"

"GAI-SENSEI!"

Tayuya had closed her eyes and covered her ears to block out all the yelling. When it had all stopped, aside from the near silent sound of rubber sliding against itself, she opened them and almost lost the breakfast she'd eaten that morning. They were hugging. Hugging. Two males, in green jumpsuits, hugging. It didn't add up to her. She turned to make a break for it but Naruto and Sakura blocked her way. Were they trying to torture her?

"You have to get used to it. They do it all the time," Sakura stated nonchalantly.

"I think it's kind of cute, in a weird way," The blonde supplied.

"Are you fucking crazy!" Tayuya pointed to the pair still entwined in each others arms, oblivious to the conversation. "That's cute?"

"I have one at home in the closet if you want to try it on Tayuya-chan," Naruto said with a smile.

Tayuya stomped off in some unknown direction with the two behind her flowing closely, their audible laughter pissing the redhead off.

"You're giving me a team Hokage-sama?"

"Not a team, an apprentice." Tsunade reiterated. "I can't find much else to do with you and you have nothing else to do in your off time."

"But...I don't think I'd be so great at teaching anyone. I can understand the girl but I don't think I can-"

"You're an elite ninja and have much to teach. She's a promising genin with a large amount of chakra. I don't see the problem. It doesn't start for a few months."

"But I was planning on going out drinking in a few months!" The jounin whined. Tsunade rubbed her temples, aggravation starting to gain control.

"You won't be alone. There will be someone else teaching her."

"Two sensei? Why?"

"Because her other sensei doesn't do much in his free time either. We're trying to help this girl learn as much as she can so she can defend herself if he comes after her. You know very well she wouldn't last long as she is now."

The jounin sighed, knowing Tsunade had a point. Though even if she did teach this girl everything she knew then she still would stand a chance against him.

"I can teach her everything I know Tsunade-sama, but it won't be enough. I hardly held my ground against him in-"

"I know that. You will teach her what you know of his style, while the other sensei will be training her in other things. Your part is to inform and, if need be, let the girl know a few of your jutsu in the case she gets in a bind."

"But who's her other sensei? He must be someone you trust to train the girl enough to not get her killed in the near future."

"He's coming right now." Tsunade pointed to the door.

The jounin turned to meet orange instead of a face. Tsunade smiled at the smirk that was slowly coming onto the now understanding jounin's face. The man raised his hand.

"Yo."

"Hell no! I'm done with this shitty day and I'm going home!"

"But Tayuya-chan we only have to meet three more people!" Naruto and Sakura held the redhead's arms in a vicegrip as the continued toward team eight's training ground. Tayuya struggled but knew it was all in vain. After seeing team nine she didn't want to meet anyone else. She stopped struggling when they reached the training ground because the first person she caught sight of was a certain blue haired Hyuuga female. Shino and Kiba sat under a tree while Kurenai busied herself with talking to Asuma not too far away.

Hinata stood on unsteady legs. "N-Naruto-kun? What are you doing here?"

"I wanted everyone to meet Tayuya-chan." Naruto once again pushed her to the front of the group.

"Hai. That's the one," Kiba said absentmindedly. The redhead was in front of him a second later.

"The one what?" she ground out. Kiba backed away.

"The one from the mission jeez! I remember your scent."

Tayuya huffed and turned toward the second boy. His eyebrows were up but he made no other movement. Kurenai calmly walked over with the trench knife using jounin in tow, both curious as to what was happening with the genin. Asuma stealthily pulled out a cigarette and stayed behind the woman who constantly chastised him for fear of verbal or physical abuse. The genjutsu mistress greeted them kindly with Asuma keeping silent behind.

"So you're the new Konoha nin I've heard about. Tayuya?" Kurenai questioned.

Tayuya was surprised at the woman's kindness. "Hai."

"Yuuhi Kurenai, Genjutsu Mistress, nice to meet-" Kurenai turned around because of the smell of cigarette in the air. Asuma cursed as she snatched it away from him and ground it under her shoe into the ground. The genin all snickered at Asuma's predicament. Kiba coughed something that suspicious sounded like 'whipped', earning him a glare from the male jounin.

Kurenai gestured to the older man. "This is Sarutobi Asuma. Habitual smoker."

Asuma smiled sheepishly. "Nice to meet you."

Tayuya pondered for a minute. "Sarutobi? Wasn't that the name of the third hokage?"

He smiled again. "Yep. He's my father."

The redhead was suddenly hit by a small wave of guilt. She didn't kill the third but she was the one who erected a barrier around him so that no one could help the old man. She hated these new feelings. Asuma noticed her downcast look and laid a hand on her shoulder.

"I don't blame you. A ninja's life is too short to hold a grudge."

Tayuya nodded; she understood. She felt she had to apologize but knew he wouldn't accept it, seeing has he had no qualms with her. Instead they all stayed in the area a little longer, chatting about idle things. The redhead learned a little about the Aburame and Inuzuka clans while she was there, but not much from the Hyuuga seeing as Hinata was too busy glaring at her. Kurenai noticed this and took her student into the forest for a minute to talk, leaving everyone else to their conversations. Asuma spoke up a few seconds later, after he lit another cigarette of course, confused as to why the normally calm heiress was being anything but.

"You made Hinata angry? That's quite a feat."

Tayuya shrugged. "Not my fault. Tramp's just mad because she can't have Shithead."

Asuma gave her a questioning look.

"Hinata's mad because Naruto's dating us," Sakura said with a sigh. She was really getting tired of explaining this.

Asuma was silent for a minute. "You two are...dating? Already?"

Naruto smiled. "It's been a few weeks."

The older male jounin sighed again, but then the words came back to him and he sat straight up, eyes level on Sakura.

"Us? What do you mean 'us'?"

"She said Shithead's with both of us. You got a problem with that?"

Asuma's cigarette fell from his mouth, his mouth open a little wider. How did Naruto manage to do something he'd been trying to do for forever in his younger years? Given that the Sarutobi clan wasn't too large, he'd hoped by some loophole to use a certain act to date two women he had been observing at that time. Before the third's death he'd expressly forbidden though. He tucked his cigarettes back into his pocket, intending to ask Naruto to walk with him for a moment. Before he could though, Kurenai returned with Hinata, a shocked look on the older woman's face.

"Naruto, may I talk to you for a minute?" The genjutsu mistress inquired.

The blond shrugged and followed the genjutsu mistress. After a ten minute walk in they stopped at two small stumps. Kurenai took a seat, motioning for him to take the one across from her.

"What did you need Kurenai-sensei?"

Kurenai shifted uncomfortably for a moment. There was no easy way to phrase her question.

"I was told that you're dating both Sakura and Tayuya-san."

Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Okay...so?"

Kurenai pressed her lips together. Even with the pressure, the blond couldn't help but noticed they didn't lose much of their full look. "Why?"

"Because they're both precious to me," He answered immediately.

"You love them both?"

"Hai," he affirmed.

"What about Hinata?"

Naruto gave her a strange look. "What about her?"

Kurenai sighed. She wasn't here to try to force the boy into a relationship with the genin she would proudly consider a daughter. She just wanted to know whether he had any intention to. In that case, she'd have probably had to probably break a few bones to make him think otherwise. It seemed that he actually did have strong feelings for the two people he was together with, which wasn't the case with most males that were in this situation.

Hinata had voiced her opinion about Naruto's relationship to her, surprising Kurenai because the young genin had never been so expressive. She'd talked for ten minutes, without stuttering, before the older woman had managed to quiet her. If there was one good thing about Naruto being in this relationship it was that Hinata had finally come out of her shell a little.

"Do you have any feelings for her?" Kurenai pressed.

Naruto put a hand on his chin. "Hai. I mean she's really strong so I trust her, and she's a good friend."

"I meant romantic feelings Naruto. The kind you have for Sakura and Tayuya-san."

He shook his head. "I don't think so."

"Good. Tayuya-san and Sakura are both satisfied with this relationship?"

"Hai. They agreed to it. It's been okay so far."

"There haven't been any large conflicts?" Naruto shook his head again, "Well then...make sure you pay them both equal attention."

He sighed. "Hinata isn't happy with this, is she Kurenai-sensei?"

The woman sighed. "No...I don't think she is."

"Can you talk to her for me? If I try...let's just say Tayuya-chan and Sakura-chan get jealous easily."

The jounin smiled. "I'll-"

"Kurenai-sensei!" Kiba called as he rounded a tree. Kurenai looked at him expectantly as he made his way to them.

"Asuma-sensei sent me to get Naruto. It's getting really bad back at the training ground and I don't think he'll be able to hold them back any longer."

"Hold them back?"

"Tayuya-san and Sakura."

Kurenai heaved a deep sigh and started walking back with Naruto and Kiba. "What happened?"

Kiba shrugged. "I wasn't really listening. I think Hinata made them mad somehow; something about going shopping again."

Naruto paled a little. "Tayuya-chan and Sakura-chan are a little jealous because of that."

"Oh?" Kurenai commented.

"I went clothes shopping with Hinata and they didn't take it too well. I hoped that they wouldn't do anything to her."

"You went clothes shopping with her. To what store?" Kiba asked.

"Some woman clothes shop. She'd look really nice if she just dropped the jacket she wears all the time."

Kiba stayed quiet while Kurenai contemplated this. "Was this before or after you started dating Tayuya-san and Sakura?"

"After."

Kurenai remained silent as they continued the walk back. Hinata had finally gained some confidence, though not in the way that she'd have ever expected or hoped for. The young Hyuuga must have been using any tactic she could think of to help change her image in Naruto's eyes. The genjutsu mistress decided it was time to have a talk with her student. When they arrived Asuma was holding both girls back by their collars, feet slowly dragging in the dirt. Hinata sat not too far away with a victorious smile that quickly disappeared when Kurenai entered the clearing. Both girls stopped dragging Asuma as soon as they locked eyes with Naruto.

"I think it's time to go. See you later Asuma-sensei, Kurenai-sensei." Naruto walked off with the other girls not trailing too far behind. They both sent murderous glares to Hinata over their shoulders before continuing the walk with Naruto.

Asuma bent over, his hands on his knees and his breathing heavy. "They're pretty strong."

"I noticed," Kurenai answered. "Everyone is dismissed. Hinata you stay. I'd like to have a talk with you."

"Are you fucking serious! She wasn't lying?" Tayuya nearly screamed in his face.

"She was telling the truth!" Sakura screamed alongside her.

Naruto took a minute to put a finger in his ear to make sure his hearing returned before he would respond. They were back in the apartment since Tayuya had already met everyone and he was sitting on the bigger couch. It'd been about an hour and they were still arguing with him about it. Both kunoichi were in front of him, standing, with angry expressions.

Naruto sighed. "She was telling the truth and I guess I'm sorry for what happened."

Tayuya jabbed him in the chest. Hard. "So you just sat and ogled her! What the fuck is your problem!"

"It was an accident!" The blonde yelled defensively. "I mean, she just looked really different. It surprised me."

Sakura pinched him to get his attention. "That doesn't excuse it Naruto-kun."

Naruto rubbed his forearm. "How about I take you both shopping some other time? Is that okay?"

Tayuya and Sakura looked at each other. They nodded. Naruto let out a breath of relief.

"I need to talk to Tayuya Naruto-kun. Just for a little bit."

"What do you want me to do? Leave?" The blonde asked.

Before anyone could answer a white puff of smoke showed not too far from where they were standing; in the kitchen to be exact. Kakashi emerged seconds later and calmly walked behind Naruto. He gave them all one of his smiles before bringing his hand down on the blonde's neck, effectively knocking him out. Both girls did nothing as Naruto was lifted under the copy ninja's arm while he was still smiling and walked toward the door.

"I'm just borrowing him for a minute. You don't mind do you?" Kakashi asked.

Although her anger hadn't faded, Tayuya still found herself bolting up. "Hold the fuck up! You're not taking-"

"It's fine. We can trust Kakashi-sensei. Have him back soon okay sensei?" Sakura half-asked half-ordered. Her eyes contained a malice that Kakashi hadn't yet seen on her young face. It had to have something to do with the picture he uncaringly shared. Kakashi made a hand sign before nodding. He disappeared in another puff of smoke.

"What if he does something to Shithead?"

"Kakashi-sensei was our sensei over the last couple of months. I know we can trust him."

Tayuya huffed. "What did you want?"

"A week. After shopping. That's when I plan on it."

'Tayuya threw her hands up in frustration. "Don't tell me before! Shit. I said after."

"I'm going to need the apartment," Sakura informed her.

"Hell no" Tayuya replied without hesitation. "This is our place. Find another."

"Where would I go?"

"Like I fucking know. What about your house?"

"I want it to be special. He'll be too nervous if we do it there."

The redhead's face was grim. "I forgot. You're mom is a sick pervert."

"She's just...informative. Why can't I use the other room?"

"There's nothing in the other room! It's fucking empty! You're going to do it on the floor?"

"I can bring my bed," Sakura offered.

Tayuya glared at her. "Not here. Find some place else. This," she motioned around the apartment with one hand, "is our place."

Sakura grit her teeth. "I need n damn idea then!"

Tayuya raised an eyebrow at the pink haired kunoichi. Sakura was oblivious to the Tayuya-like quality she had just exhibited.

"Damn. You're starting to act like me. I guess Shithead was right not to let me near that weak ass academy."

"That doesn't matter. Do you have any ideas?"

"I might," the redhead said while smirking.

Naruto woke up in the Hokage's office across from a not so happy Godaime. Her glare was directed to the left of him, which was where the copy ninja sat with that same smile on his face. Tsunade laced her fingers together in a clear attempt to control her anger.

Naruto stared at the two adults in the room. "Baa-chan? Why'd you knock me out Kakashi-sensei!"

"Tsunade-sama wanted to see you," Kakashi informed.

"I would have come if you told me to! You didn't have to knock me out."

"You would have talked too much."

"Enough." Everything fell silent as Tsunade directed her gaze to Naruto.

"Naruto, what can you tell me of Tayuya's abilities?"

"Her abilities? Why? Didn't you see the mission report?"

"It tells me she can use genjutsu, but only used one while in battle. The rest of the time she used what Shikamaru calls 'Doki' to attack him. It never revealed her taijutsu skills, weapon skills, or ninjutsu skills if she has any."

"Well...I definitely wouldn't consider Tayuya-chan the genjutsu type. She has a short temper but she's not stupid. Um...I've only seen her use one ninjutsu and that was a henge and I doubt she knows more since she relied on the flute so much. I'd say she could be a taijutsu or ninjutsu type if she wanted to. She broke this one guy's nose a few weeks ago when he tried to hit on her. It was pretty funny. Shouldn't her new sensei be here to hear this?"

"I'll let them know. Now, you say that she wouldn't be a genjutsu type?"

"I'm pretty sure. She's good with that flute but that's only because it's the only thing the snake bastard ever taught her. I doubt she'll still be able to use those doki though since they were summons and Orochimaru probably burned the scroll. At least that's what she told me."

"You know of her history? What did she tell you?"

Naruto shook his head. "I can't tell you Baa-chan. All I can say is that she doesn't remember much before Orochimaru took her."

Tsunade sighed irritably. "Who would you say would be a good sensei for her then?"

"Hm...anyone but Kakashi-sensei and that crazy snake lady."

Kakashi's shoulders slumped and his smile vanished. "Why do you say that Naruto? Kakashi is one of our best jounin and-"

"And he's always late! Every time we showed up to training he would be late and make up some stupid excuse. I wouldn't call him a bad ninja. He's one of the best I've seen and he doesn't let us down on missions, but we didn't really learn anything from him."

Tsunade smiled. "So there's no reason you would choose him for the job?"

"Not unless you had somebody that was always over his shoulder so that he would do what he supposed to do."

At this Tsunade's smile widened and Kakashi's slump became even worse. It wasn't until he saw the Godaime's grin that his horrified expression arose. He looked at the woman, rapidly shaking his head and waiting for her to tell him that it wasn't going to be that way. Instead, Tsunade leaned back in her chair, the smile now confusing Naruto as well.

"Naruto, you may go."

Naruto looked toward the door. "Do I have to walk back Baa-chan? Can't Kakashi-sensei do that teleport thing so I don't have to?"

"Kakashi."

"Hai Tsunade-sama." Kakashi replied in a bored yet sad voice.

The copy nin put a hold on Naruto's shoulder and made the correct sign; seconds later the blonde felt like he was being propelled at high speeds. He couldn't even take in his surroundings until they stopped on the roof of his apartment. They stayed there for a moment, beside each other, only staring at the approaching sunset; Kakashi with a lot on his mind and Naruto just wanting to go inside since he wasn't too fond of male bonding.

"Naruto...was I really that bad?"

Naruto looked away before answering. "Hai. You were a great sensei whenever we went on missions and you protected us like you should have, but you didn't really teach us that much. If it wasn't for Baa-chan I don't think Sakura would ever have become a good ninja. I got stronger on my own, and then Ero-sennin helped me a little. If he never showed up though and I think I would have died fighting Gaara during the invasion. Kage bunshin aren't going to get me through everything."

Kakashi heaved a heavy sigh. "Gomen. I never thought that...that it was that bad. I promise to do better, Naruto." He held out his hand.

"Better? I can't train for the next few months Kakashi-sensei."

Kakashi brought the hand to the back of his head, scratching it nervously. "Um...I mean when you come back. Because uh...I'll teach you a bunch of new jutsu." He hurriedly fixed his mistake. The Godaime hadn't wanted Naruto to know that information yet.

"Really Kakashi-sensei! Now I can't wait to get back!"

"Hai Hai. Now, shouldn't you be getting inside?"

"Are you coming to see me off in a couple of months?"

The jounin formed an eye smile. "I'll see what I can do."

Kakashi disappeared. Naruto made his way inside, stopping in the bedroom where both girls were sleeping away from each other. He slid in slowly, careful not to wake them. This failed when Tayuya turned over, attempting to snuggle into him and accidentally slapped Sakura in the process. The result was Sakura sitting straight up and then biting the guilty appendage, causing there to be a long verbal argument.

"You slapped me!"

"You bit my fucking hand!"

"I thought you were a ninja! Did it hurt that much?" Sakura goaded.

"No! I just don't want your nasty ass spit on my fucking hand!"

"You're a terrible liar."

Tayuya looked to Naruto for help but he was already nestled between the two, obviously trying to get some sleep. Sakura pumped her fist in the air, indicating she won the verbal battle, before lying back down. Tayuya's grumbles could be heard as she also retook her place. It wasn't too long before they were all asleep.

It was that day that Naruto had been dreading for the past week. After borrowing some money from Tsunade and begging on his hands and knees in front of Jiraiya, he had a healthy sum of money. It was money that wasn't his at all, but for the two enthusiastic kunoichi currently walking happily in front of him.

He wouldn't peg Tayuya as the shopping type but that was obviously the case from the way she entered the first store. Sakura quickly followed and he was forced to take a seat near the dressing rooms, once again receiving strange looks. He kept an eye on the two rooms that the girls had gone into and paid no attention to the third. Naruto hoped no one would come out and accuse him of being a pervert.

Minutes later Sakura walked out dressed in some tight black pants that clung to all the right places and a long sleeved red shirt. The clothes were hugging her curves all over, showing Naruto what he would be getting someday. He managed a thumbs up before Sakura went back into the room, giggling all the while. The blonde prepared himself for the next shock as Tayuya's door opened. The redhead stood in blue tank top and matching blue shorts. Naruto nodded his approval and she went back inside, satisfied with his reaction.

It went this way for a while until Naruto dozed off for five minutes. His head jerked up after, relieved that either girl had not seen him snoozing. As much fun as watching his girlfriends dress in many different outfits was, he was beginning to grow tired of it. He switched his gaze to the left as a door opened and his eyes nearly fell out of their sockets. Tight, very short, black shorts. A blue bikini top covering a pair of breasts that couldn't be owned by Tayuya or Sakura. Lastly, the smirk accompanied by brown eyes that scared the shit out of him the first time they met.

"C-C-C-C-C..." The blonde choked on his own saliva.

"What's a matter gaki? Can't form a sentence?" Anko teased.

Naruto gulped. If the other two came out right now to see him ogling Anko it would mean trouble. He forcefully dragged his eyes slowly, very slowly, to the floor at her feet. The blonde only felt worse that he examined her body on the way to the down to floor as much as he did on way up. Anko laughed at his embarrassment from her position above him, clearly enjoying herself.

"What are you doing here?" Naruto asked.

"Shopping. You know, the same thing as you. So what do you think?" Naruto could see Anko's feet go around in a circle.

"Uh...I don't...you look...good?"

Anko chuckled again. "Well thank you! I think we'll be seeing much more of each other once you return gaki."

She laughed again at his blush as she turned back to the dressing room. Instead she came face to face with a furious Tayuya, now in a bright red two piece bikini that Naruto couldn't keep his eyes off of. Sakura wasn't too far behind her, this time in the same two piece bikini as Tayuya except it was a stunning green.

"Anko was it? Get the fuck away from my boyfriend before I have to kick your ass," Tayuya threatened.

"Now. I don't want to break any bones," Sakura added.

Anko smirked at them. "You couldn't if you tried. I'll be seeing you around Tayu-chan."

Tayuya seethed as Anko reached into the dressing room and pulled out her clothes. After paying and leaving both girls' eyes switched back to Naruto. He looked cross eyed as he couldn't figure out which one to look at. The blonde settled for staring at their eyes, not missing the noticeable blushes between the two of them.

Tayuya placed her hands on her hips. "What the hell was that about? Is she always like that?"

"I-I don't know. She..." Naruto still had the image in his mind. He couldn't get over the fact that the woman he thought was the scariest kunoichi he'd ever met wasn't so pale, skinny, and frightening under her clothes as he'd thought. He mentally chastised himself that he'd been lucky that when Tayuya and Sakura had come out. His eyes were already staring at the floor.

"Let's go Naruto-kun. We're done shopping."

Minutes and an empty frog wallet later, they all headed back toward the apartment. Sakura went her own way in the direction of the Hokage tower, using the excuse that she needed to put her clothes away. Before he knew it he and Tayuya were already home with the redhead going to the back to put away the many bags of clothes she had purchased. Naruto walked into the kitchen and began making a few sandwiches. They hadn't eaten that morning and Tayuya had forbidden eating ramen every day. She'd gone as far as packing it all into a scroll which he didn't know the location of.

Back in the bedroom Tayuya had already put away her clothes and was examining herself in the mirror. She didn't have to lie to herself. Anko's body was far more developed that hers and Tayuya was a bit envious of her, though she'd never admit it. She turned around in the mirror a few times, wondering what Naruto managed to see in her. She had enough pride to admit that she wasn't ugly, but she never thought of herself as sexy. The feeling of wanting to kick the female jounin's ass once again surfaced, but Tayuya knew she couldn't as she was now. Anko would get hers in time though; Tayuya rarely let go of grudge. She was interrupted by Naruto's hands sliding around her waist while she was cupping her breasts.

Tayuya jumped in surprise and removed her hands. "Don't you know how to fucking knock!"

The blonde passed a light finger over her midsection. "It's my bedroom too. What are you doing?"

"What the hell does it look like? I'm looking at myself in the mirror."

"Why?"

The redhead's eyebrows drew together. "Why are you so fucking curious? It's not important."

"So I can do it too?"

Before she could reply Naruto was cupping her breasts. "I mean it is kind of fun but why are you doing it too? Is it fun for you?"

"I was just looking at them!" Tayuya swatted his hands away.

He leaned into her back. "But you already know what they look like. Are they bothering you?"

Tayuya sighed. "Kind of...They're not that big."

"So?"

"It doesn't bother you?"

"Should it? I mean they're still fun to play with no matter how big they are."

Tayuya gave him a light punch to the shoulder, and then followed up with a kiss. "You say a lot of fucked up things but still make me feel good."

"I try." Naruto attempted to pull her back onto the bed but Tayuya stood in place.

Tayuya bit her bottom lip. "Not now. Whore's going to be here in a minute."

"Why?"

She broke their embrace. "She wanted to go out with you somewhere so I told her she could have you tonight."

"So I'm property now?"

"That's what it looks like," the doorbell rang. "I'm still getting used to that shit. Go ahead; I'll see you when you get back."

Naruto nodded. Tayuya grabbed a book and took a place on the bed. A few seconds later Sakura walked into the room and threw a scroll into her lap. Before she could ask what it was the pinkette was already gone. The door closed in the living room, informing the redhead that they'd already left. She opened the scroll and a piece of paper fell out. On the scroll were the directions for a jutsu. The note Sakura left read:

Something Tsunade-sama said we should know.

Maybe next time since you already messed up once.

Thanks for letting me have him tonight...and for the advice; means a lot.

Sakura

"She better not fuck up," Tayuya said as she unrolled the rest of the scroll and began reading the instructions.

"Where are we going Sakura-chan?"

Sakura gripped his hand harder. "Just follow me. We'll be there in a minute."

They'd already reached the forest and Naruto was wondering what she had planned out. It was already getting dark so he hoped they weren't going too far because of the threat of enemy nin. Instead they stopped not too far away from the village in the middle of a few trees. Naruto took note of her light shaking but didn't know whether to make it out as her being cold or nervous about something. About ten minutes later they reached a clearing with a small stream, large enough to wade in but not pull you away.

"Where are we Sakura-chan?"

Naruto looked for an answer but instead his eyes met Sakura in the exact same bikini that she had been wearing earlier. Once again his eyes could not pull away, even as she sauntered over to the water and slid in. It was a warm night so he assumed the stream wasn't too cold from the way she slid in. Sakura hardly suppressed a giggle when she noticed he hadn't moved from his spot.

"Aren't you coming in Naruto-kun?"

Naruto nearly tripped over his pants as he took them off and ran over to the water. He slid in beside her, liking the feeling of the slightly cold water. Sakura pulled him closer, opting to lean her head on his shoulder. A few minutes later Naruto began to grow bored and went underwater, causing the girl who was leaning on him to go under as well. When he resurfaced Sakura's hair was all around her face, completely covering her eyes. He started laughing but was stopped by the awkward tackle he received, submersing them both once again.

This started a long splashing and dunking match with the pink haired kunoichi winning most of the time. At one point she jumped up and began water walking, ignoring the cries from the blonde that she was cheating. Sakura focused as much chakra as she could into her arm and swung it toward the blonde. He was surprised at the small wave that issued forth from her fist. Naruto was carried toward the land and washed up on the grass near his and Sakura's clothes. The pink haired kunoichi's giggles could be heard from the water.

He rolled over. "Sakura-chaaan! That was cheating."

Sakura shook her head. She walked around in a playful circle on the water's surface. "No. I just tested out my training."

"Okay then. I will too."

Before she could escape Naruto put his hands in his favorite seal. Sakura was about to take off down the lake but twenty shirtless and pants-less kage bunshin blocked her way. She turned around to see the same thing on either side of her.

Even with the advantage obviously in his favor, she couldn't help but smile. "Naruto-kun...this is cheating."

Sakura was splashed from all directions; almost like a harmless water jutsu. She began punching the bunshin, dispelling them on contact. Once Naruto realized she would only destroy all of them he dispelled them and sat on the grass, allowing enough space for a now very soaked Sakura to sit next to him. Sakura shook her hair wildly, showering the blonde with water droplets.

"How did you find this place?" Naruto asked.

"Tayuya noticed it when you were carrying her here," Sakura answered.

"It's nice."

"It's going to get better," Sakura replied as she stood up. Naruto turned around after hearing a 'poof' sound. The pink haired kunoichi was setting up a small blanket with a steaming basket of something next to her. He walked over, taking a laying position next to her as she began digging in the basket. Sakura took out two large bowls which Naruto already knew the contents of.

"Ramen?"

"Sakura's special," she replied and handed him a bowl.

The blonde grinned. "You're great Sakura-chan. This is the best night I've had in a while."

She nodded. "Let's just eat and look at the stars."

Naruto followed her example, switching his gaze to the stars. He had finished his bowl in a matter of minutes and chose to lay back. Sakura was at his side moments later, lying sideways with a hand on his chest. It was completely silent aside from the sound of crickets chirping softly and a few owls hooting. He could feel Sakura's hands still shaking somewhat. She must have been cold. He turned to ask if she would want to get dressed again but met her lips instead. Sakura pressed into him harder, throwing her hands around his neck and in the process climbing atop him.

Sakura started to grind into his lap. Naruto groaned into her mouth as she continued kissing him greedily. His hands went down to her thighs, drawing slow circles on them with his thumbs as he grasped them with the rest of his hands. Sakura was forced to sit still because of this but she apparently didn't mind or was too preoccupied with kissing him to notice. She separated for air and to stare at the blonde's face and ran her hands through his hair.

"Naruto-kun...I'm ready."

"Are you-" he groaned as she ground into his lap again. "-sure? You seem a little nervous."

Sakura traced a line on his chest with a finger. "I-I know I'm not as...developed as Tayuya and that she's-"

Naruto's narrowing eyes stopped her. "I love you both. That doesn't matter. Tayuya-chan's not here right now, you are. Are you ready Sakura-chan?"

"H-Hai."

Naruto began planting butterfly kisses along her collar bone. "You're still nervous. What's wrong?"

Sakura fisted her hands in between her thighs. "I...Gomen. It's just my-"

"Don't apologize. It's okay," he whispered. Despite his words, the blonde could feel himself shaking in anticipation. Finally attaining one's love in a intimately physical aspect could do that.

"I'm just a little scared. I know it'll hurt." Sakura felt terrible. She felt as if the talks with Tayuya were for nothing.

"You'll be fine. How about we go slow?"

Sakura nodded and did a few hand signs.

"What does that do?" the blonde questioned.

The pinkette blushed, "It um...prevents pregnancy. I'll tell you about it later."

Naruto nodded as she removed her top, allowing her breasts to come into view. She ignored the impulse that told her to cover them and let Naruto skim her chest with his finger. He was still planting kisses but they were gradually going lower, until he stopped at the middle of her breast. Instead of touching them like she expected his hands went lower until he was inside the bottom of her suit, atop her sex. It was then that he took a nub into his mouth, surprising Sakura as she arched her back toward his touch. A finger began lining her sex, never going in but teasing her by spreading it a little. She mewled in his arms, the pleasure slowly beginning to overtake her.

Naruto removed his hands from her body, instead using them to steady her as he pulled her into a passionate kiss. Sakura welcomed the contact, grabbing one of his hands in the process and sliding it back into her bottoms. The pinkette pushed into the fingers as they came closer to penetrating her the deeper the kisses became. Sakura took a deep breath as they finally did, rubbing against her inner walls. The blonde began gradually inserting and withdrawing his digit. She moaned quietly every time they would slide inside her, obviously enjoying the foreign intrusion.

The fingers vacated the space inside her seconds later, leaving the pinkette disappointed. Naruto eased her off of him, standing up so that he could remove his boxers. It was at this time Sakura took notice of the flesh protruding out inside the underwear. It was stretching them a good couple inches. This had her waiting in anticipation. It would be her first time seeing Naruto in such a state. She only had dreams to go off of, after all. When underwear was removed and she wasn't disappointed in the least. She was only left to wonder how the hell that made its way inside Tayuya.

Sakura stood as well, taking off her bikini bottom. Naruto stare made her feel uncomfortable but the way his jaw started hanging put more than a little confidence in her system. She slowly sauntered over, as sexy as she could manage, and engaged him in a hot kiss. Naruto threw his arms around her, accidentally sliding his tool against her thigh in the process. Sakura was startled at how warm it was. She nervously slid her hand down his chest, eventually going past the waistline and touching it. Naruto's groan pressed her on as she took a hold on it.

"Sakura-chan..."

"You like?" Sakura teased as she pumped slowly.

"H-Hai."

Sakura was the recipient of a rough kiss as Naruto's mouth came down on her again, massaging her tongue with more skill than she remembered him having She moaned into his mouth as he brought his hand to the bottom of her sex, sliding one finger in slowly. Naruto laid the pink haired kunoichi down, his finger still inside her, and steadily positioned himself over her, continuing his ministrations. Sakura hadn't stopped pumping from five minutes ago and her pace was becoming faster. Naruto could say nothing, instead choosing to add another finger and thrust faster. Her breathing and his alike became ragged, both nearing their climaxes as they stared into each others eyes.

Sakura was the first. He body writhing in his grasp as a loud moan tore itself from her throat. Her pumping did not stop though, if anything it became faster, triggering the blonde's climax. He finished in the grass next to the blanket, spurting off small amounts until he collapsed next to her. It was some time before they both regained the ability to breathe properly, at which point Sakura pulled him to her closely.

"Please...be gentle Naruto-kun."

Naruto nodded, again fully erect. He positioned himself at her entrance, waiting for the signal that he could continue. Sakura smiled, pulling him down in a gentle kiss as he continued pushing into her, eventually reaching the barrier. She clung to him tightly, hands under his arms and placed on his shoulders. Naruto already loved the feeling of being inside her, though he knew it was the time to push forward and made sure he didn't waste any time. He pushed through, tearing the wall apart and forcing Sakura to let out a scream of pain. He quickly muffled it with one of his kisses, combing his fingers through her hair in an effort to calm her. With his other hand he wiped away the tears slowly, planting kisses at where they had once been.

"Naruto...it hurts so much."

"I know. Just wait, it gets better."

It was a few minutes before her grip started to loosen on his shoulders and the pain began to ebb away. Sakura sighed in pleasure as a warm sensation overtook her, gradually lessening the pain. She'd finally lost her innocence, and it was to the boy she loved. Naruto moved a little inside her, sending unexpected sparks of pleasure up her spine. Sakura tried this again, this time moving roughly against him. More pleasure shot through her nervous system and she was eager to get more. Grabbing Naruto by the back of his thighs, she urged him to move against her.

He pulled all the way out, taking the feeling of being a different kind of full from Sakura before thrusting back in. Sakura released a semi-scream into his ear, choosing to grasp his back tightly as he continued to move inside her. Her walls continued to pull him back every time he though of escaping, giving him no chance to leave until she reached her peak. The pinkette attempted moved her hips against his, enjoying the sound her bottom meeting his thighs in an almost rhythmic pattern. He pulled out once again, but before he could slide back in Sakura flipped them over so that she was on top. Naruto stared at her, bewildered as to why she would do such a thing. His thoughts were silenced Sakura rolled her hips, moving his member inside her at the same time.

She rose up as far as she could go and fell down on top of him. Both genin quickly grew addicted to the new level of pleasure this brought. Her moans started getting louder as she continued to ride him. Sakura was in pure bliss. She was in control of getting her own pleasure and was reveling in the feeling. Naruto sat up and met her bounces with equal if not greater force than when she came down on him. She captured his lips, hands on the front of his chest and slowly dragging downwards, leaving nail marks in the process. One of his hands was fisted in her hair, melting her soft lips with his own, while his other made it's way down to the point where their bodies were joined.

Sakura's eyes opened wide when Naruto's fingers made their way to the topmost part of her sex, pinching the little button that lay their softly. Her teeth embedded themselves in his unmarked shoulder and she felt the first tell-tale sign of her oncoming orgasm. The fire in her lower abdomen had spread throughout her body, lighting up each and every one of her nerves in an inferno of cellular overload. She screamed as Naruto pinched harder, her body now on fire as her inner walls clenched tightly around his member. Naruto let out a throaty moan as his seed jetted into her, his orgasm prolonged as her walls continued to milk him. He fell back on the blanket while his orgasm subsided. Sakura fell on top of him, their sweat soaked bodies happily melding with each other.

"Thank you...Naruto-kun. It...was the best...experience I ever had," Sakura smiled contently through her heavy breathing.

"I'm...glad," the blonde replied.

He slowly slid himself out of her, his sensitivity greater because of the last climax. Sakura moaned in happiness and loss as he left her and began picking the things up around the area. After they had both picked up all their clothes and Naruto had Sakura in his arms, they started back toward Konoha. It was nearly twelve when they returned to the apartment, now able to shower. Naruto entered alongside washing her back once they were inside. Once they finished they opted to sleep on the large couch instead of disturbing Tayuya. Sakura curled up in his arms, every once in a while smelling the scent of the blonde's golden locks.

He toyed with her tresses. "Are you feeling better Sakura-chan?"

Sakura rubbed her thighs together, wincing slightly. "Hai. It still hurts a little but I should be fine in the morning. Maybe I'll ask Tsunade-sensei about it."

Naruto flipped her to face him. "You're going to tell her?"

Sakura's cheeks tinted. "She already knows."

"How!"

The pinkette put a finger to her lips. "Shh! She taught me that jutsu. It was only natural she'd want to know why."

Naruto grumbled. "She shouldn't know about our sex life."

Sakura blushed darker at the though that she now had a sex life to be embarrassed of. "This is the only time she'll know of, okay Naruto-kun?"

"Sure. She probably gets off on it."

Sakura gaped at him. "Naruto-kun!"

"She's fifty something! I wouldn't be surprised. Anyway let's get to sleep."

Naruto pulled her closer, effectively silencing any protests she might have had. They both fell asleep on the couch, oblivious to the smiling redhead in the doorway not too far away.

The months flew and before they knew, it was time. It was their last morning together and Sakura had already moved her things into the other room. They'd all chosen to make the best of their last night together and share the master bedroom. Naruto was being grabbed tightly from both ends and this time he didn't want them to let go. He would miss them; that was inevitable. Their last few months spending time together, kissing, and making love would not be forgotten. He slowly sat up, his stare piercing clock on the wall; almost willing it to go back in time. Instead he chose to get up, shaking off both girls and heading into the kitchen.

After breakfast was made they made their way to the gates where Jiraiya would be waiting. The walk was nearly in baby steps, none wanting to make it there more than the other. Naruto stopped alongside the dirt road, beckoning for the two to come closer. When they arrived they saw that Ichiraku ramen was actually closed today. A sigh was left that said that they had official business to take care of. The continued visiting many places where his precious people resided, each time coming up with the same result.

"Let's go. Ero-sennin is probably already mad that we're late," he said as they exited the academy where a substitute sensei was in place of Iruka. When they finally reached the gates Naruto eyes widened as well as the two girls'. Every person they had gone to visit that morning was standing there expectantly, as if waiting for his arrival. He quickly walked though the small crowd of villagers, some thanking him for saving Konoha from Gaara all those months ago. When he reached the front Tsunade was standing with a grin next to the other sannin.

"Took you long enough gaki."

The blonde looked around. "Baa-chan is everyone here to see me off?"

The Godaime ruffled his hair. "That's right. We were getting tired of waiting."

"Gomen, I-"

"He was busy this morning," Tayuya interrupted.

"Making breakfast takes a long time for Naruto-kun," Sakura supplied.

Naruto thanked them quietly for the save. He didn't feel like explaining everything. The blonde gave both girls hugs before walking to the front with his new sensei, receiving pats on the back and thanks the entire way. He stood beside Jiraiya and let his eyes wander over the small crowd. Hopefully, the whole village would love him like this when he became Hokage.

"You ready to go, Naruto?" Jiraiya asked.

"You bet Ero-sennin! I'm gonna come back stronger than ever!" The toad sannin palmed his face. Was that ever going to stop?

They both turned toward the gates when they were interrupted by a small noise coming from the crowd.

"W-Wait! N-N-Naruto-kun."

Hinata slowly made her way thorough a few people, eventually coming to the front. Many ooh's and cheers were heard as the Hyuuga heiress made her way to him, the usual blush present on her face.

"G-Good luck Naruto-kun. I-I-I hope you come back soon." Hinata's enveloped him in a tight hug which Naruto awkwardly returned. He looked over her shoulder at his two girlfriends, who were fuming. He slowly shook his head, calming them a little, as Hinata left his arms; something soft made contact on his cheek—that something being the heiress' lips. She hurriedly parted and made her way to the back of the crowd before a loud 'thump' was heard, followed by Kiba shouting her name out. Before he could look in that direction a pair of emerald eyes were staring back at him.

"Remember we still have to bring our friend back. I'll miss you Naruto-kun," Sakura reminded him. She captured his lips in a loving kiss. He made no effort to pull away, even after people started to make sounds of confusion. Sakura separated from him and started the walk toward the Hokage tower with her sensei, but not before mouthing the words 'I Love You' to him.

Naruto was so caught up in the kiss he'd just received that he didn't notice the red blur making its way through the crowd. Jiraiya was able to move away at the last minute before it plowed into the blonde, sending them both to the ground and sending up a decent amount of dust in the process. When it cleared Tayuya could be seen atop Naruto, her head near his ear.

"If you forget me you know I'll kick your ass, right?" Her grin betrayed her emotions.

He smiled. "I know Tayuya-chan. I'll miss you too." Naruto placed a kiss on her nose.

Tayuya said nothing. Instead, she would be the first ever known to start an ex-sound nin/leaf nin make out session in front of a crowd of people and in broad daylight. Naruto didn't resist, she'd become the dominant one lately for reasons unknown to him. Jiraiya was rapidly scribbling on a notepad he seemed to have pulled out of thin air while the villagers all stood in a state of shock. When Tayuya finally disconnected their lips she took a moment to stare in his eyes, knowing how much she would miss seeing them.

"See you when I get back Tayuya-chan?" He wore a cocky grin.

"Hell yea you will. Don't forget about me." She stroked his hair softly.

"I couldn't if I tried."

Tayuya bit her lip to keep from tearing up but Naruto wiped her eyes anyway. She put her lips back down toward his ear.

"Naruto...I don't think I ever told you." She took a deep breath. "I love you...and I'll miss you."

Naruto smirked. "I love you too Tayuya-chan...and I know you will."

Tayuya gave him a playful smack to the head before wiping her tears and getting up. Instead of paying attention to the strange looks she was receiving she did the normal 'fuck you' gesture and started the walk to the Hokage's office.

Kakashi walked out of the crowd next and Naruto jumped away with caution. Three kisses were enough for today. He held out a piece of paper to him.

"Put some chakra into that."

Naruto obeyed. The paper tore in half and his former sensei smiled before digging in his kunai bag and handing him a scroll.

"I thought so. Have fun learning that one. It shouldn't take too long knowing you. Have a safe trip Naruto."

Before Naruto could ask he was gone. Jiraiya motioned to him, telling him it was time to leave. Naruto smiled one more time at Konoha before walking after him, knowing it was the last time he would for three years.

Tayuya walked into the Hokage office expecting the Godaime. Instead she got the back of the Godaime's chair.

"I'm ready to meet my new sensei, Hokage-sama."

"Are you now?" a male voice replied.

Tayuya jumped as the chair turned around to reveal none other than Kakashi Hatake. He smiled at her dumbfounded expression.

"It's nice to-" Kakashi jumped out of the way as a large black ball flew in through the office, knocking the chair away. A banner flew up that read 'Mitarashi Anko, Your new sensei'. Anko walked around from behind it, her grin directed at Tayuya.

"Hey Tayu-chan! Ready to train?" The woman asked, wild grin in place.

"She's my new sensei?" Tayuya was seething inside. Yes she was happy the woman could relate to her but the incident where she showed off in front of Naruto was still fresh in her mind.

"Not exactly," Kakashi answered.

"Then who the hell is!"

Kakashi sighed. He hoped she wouldn't be more difficult than Naruto.

"We are Tayu-chan! Both of us," Anko answered.

"Both?"

"Hai," Kakashi answered while putting away his porn. "Now, shall we get started?"

Finished.

So, you guys know how I usually use 0's as scene dividers? Well, it turns out the document manager won't take it anymore. In fact, all of my re-posts before this one have no scene breaks in them since I just copied and pasted. I've just realized this. Sigh.

I can't find a backup to TSS: LOL, which is the only story I seem to be missing. If anyone decided they liked it enough to save it, I'd appreciate it if you'd send it to me. If not, I'll likely just start the third arc and work with flashbacks. I'll wait about a week and a half before starting to write the third arc. This will be my focus.

As of now I'm not seriously thinking of continuing any of my stories other than this one. It's my baby. Again, I'm not sure yet but if I choose not to feel free to PM me about adopting any of them.
