I would like to help J for editing this for me, I really appreciate it. And I hope you guys enjoy this brand new chapter!

Enjoy!

Hinata stood, completely shocked and aghast at what she saw. Some part of her realized how much of an idiot she looked like. She stood completely still, mouth agape and face flushed a cherry red. Hinata couldn't be too sure of it, but she figured steam was probably coming out of her ears as well. Her comically wide eyes scanned around the store, and she became dizzy as she took in more and more of the different products that were there.

The shop appeared relatively tiny, but she could see several closed doors from where she stood. She assumed that the place had several more rooms with even more lewd products.

The shelves she could see were lined from top to bottom with a very wide selection of perverse toys. Some she recognized, thanks to her friends telling her way more information about their personal lives than she really ever wanted to know. There was an entire aisle with shelves filled with a wide variety of dildos, vibrators, bullets,rabbits, and other phallic objects one could use to pleasure themselves with.

Another aisle had shelves stocked with less obscene objects. They were books, and thankfully, most of them had covered that were decent enough to look at without her becoming flustered. She did manage to read several of the titles as she scanned over the vast aisles. The titles were more than enough to leave her feeling lightheaded.

"How to Make a Woman Cum."

"60 Sexual Positions to Blow Your Mind."

"I Want You to Fuck Me as Hard as Possible: A Guide on How to Dirty Talk."

"From Cunniligus to Fellatio: How to Use Your Mouth."

"A Beginners Guide to BDSM"

"101 Roleplaying Fantasies For You and Your Partner."

A part of Hinata felt ashamed to admit that some of the titles had intrigued her. Not that she would ever purchase anything like that! Well, maybe just a few of the guidebooks, maybe they would help them out with their current problems.

...And maybe a few more just for her possibly skim through on her own time.

Another aisle held a wide assortment of...costumes. That was the best word she could use to describe the articles of clothing she spotted. She saw several different types of leather clothing all together into their own little cluster. A few were skin tight bodysuits that looked capable of strangeling anyone who put them on. The other leather outfits were the exact opposite. They were tiny, itty bitty scraps of clothing that looked incapable of covering any portion of anyone's body. She saw both skirts and shorts that were merely strips of cloth. At that point, they were just slightly extended belts.

Another set of costumes were a variety of animals. There were chickens, cows, cats, dogs, etc. Half of the costumes were entire suits. Entire body suits for anyone to become an animal of their choice. They were like the cute costumes one would find at a amusement park. It was a bit disturbing that they would be in a shop like this. The other half of the outfits were just as skimpy as their leather counterparts. She saw cat ears, and a matching set of fuzzy bra and panty set. There was a wide variety of tails as well. Some tails could easily be attached around the waist, like a belt. Others were attached to the bottom half of the costumes. Whether or not the bottoms were shorts, a mini skirt, or panties. Other tails didn't appear to have anything to wrap around the waist. Instead, the were attached to what looked like a sex toy.

The young Hyuuga didn't know how to feel about that.

Before her eyes could fully take in the rest of the details of the store, the young woman at the counter snapped her back into reality.

"Uh, hello? You alright there?" She asked. HInata blinked her eyes as she snapped out of her stupor.

"Huh?" She responded, turning to face the employee.

"Are you okay?" The young lady repeated.

"Oh! Yeah, I'm just, I d-don't-" Hinata attempted to communicate her current mental state to no avail. The shock of it all was still too severe for her.

"Ohhh, I get it. Have you ever been in a place like this before?" She asked, this time a smirk playing on her lips.

Hinata shook her head 'no' frantically.

The smirk only became larger.

"Oh, I see. You're just in shock! That's perfectly normal, don't worry it's why I'm here. All of this stuff can be really overwhelming. Just tell me what you're looking for, and I can help you find it. " The worker explained.

Hinata almost imploded on the spot.

She was shook. This person apparently thought that she had intentionally walked into this store. That she had walked into this sex shop with the intention of buying a sexual product. The idea left her stunned. All she could do was open and close her mouth multiple times.

"My name is Hanako, and there's no reason for you to be so shy. This is pretty normal, I promise you. People come in here all the time to buy stuff." The woman, Hanako tried to reassure her.

"Um, n-no. I'm not, this is, notebooks." Hinata tried to sputter out some type of explanation. She was desperately attempting to explain that she was here because she thought this was just a simple shop where she could buy notebooks, and not the sex shop that it actually was.

Of course, the worker didn't at all understand this. Instead, her eyes lit up with excitement, and spun around and knelt down to a row of boxes behind her.

"I get it!" She said while rummaging through the multiple boxes. "You're trying to get a notebook so you can write down your dirty fantasies! Usually, something like that isn't in very high demand, but it's become quite the hot commodity recently so don't worry. I have a couple of variations to help with your sexual writing if you-"

"No!" Hinata finally blurted out, cutting her off.

"Huh?" Hanako stopped her movement, and turned to face the young Hyuuga, There was a frown of confusion on her face.

"Um," Hinata had to avert her eyes to the floor. It was the only part of this shop not at all touched by perversion.

"I came h-here for a notebook. N-not any of this stuff. Last t-time I came here this was a little arts and crafts store that sold notebooks and writing supplies as well." Hinata explained. She struggled to keep her voice from breaking. She was shocked that she hadn't already dropped in a dead faint.

"So...you don't want a notebook?" Hanako asked, her face still etched with confusion.

"I do! I just...I just didn't mean to come to a shop like this." Hinata never once removed her gaze from the floor. Instead, she decided to try and make her way out of the door. She turned around, and began the trek that was only a foot or two away.

"I'm s-sorry for wasting your time now. I'll go." She said as she journeyed to freedom.

"Wait, wait wait. We do indeed have notebooks, regular, normal notebooks. Don't even worry about it." Hanako called out to her.

Hinata paused in her movements for a brief moment. She glanced at her, then back at the door, and then back to her.

"But-"

"I promise to you that there is nothing...sexual about them in anyway, shape, or form. People started writing out their sexual fantasies because of a magazine, and many of them were not happy with our typical selection of notebooks. So we have typical notebooks for people to write in them without anyone suspecting them of anything." Hanako tried assuring her.

Hinata felt even fainter at the mention of the magazine. She hoped that it wasn't obvious that it was the reason she was currently looking for a notebook. But at the sametime, she felt some reassurance flood over her. At least it meant that her and Naruto were definitely not alone in their struggle. It made her feel slightly less mortified.

Plus, it's not like there were that many people were currently in this area. It was relatively remote. So it wasn't like many people would see her walking out of a sex shop. She could probably just purchase the notebooks very quickly, and then simply leave. Then she would never return to this store ever again for the rest of her life.

It sounded like a pretty good idea in her head.

"Okay." Hinata walked back over to the counter. The heated flush on her cheeks remained ever present.

"Great! One notebook is going to cost about 100 ryo." Hanako turned back around to dig through the boxes again to retrieve said notebook for her.

"Actually, I'm going to need two notebooks." Hinata corrected her.

The worker paused slightly, before nodding her head. She finally managed to pull out two notebooks, and placed them down on the counter. She started punching in some numbers into her cash register.

"Okay, that'll be 200 ryo. Is...is there anything else you would like?" Her eyes remained glued to the register as she said this.

"No" The Hyuuga responded while digging into her purse to find the necessary cash.

"Are you sure about that?"

Hinata paused from collecting the money She focused her attention back to Hanako to find her staring right back at her with a light smirk.

"W-what do you mean?" Did she know? That wasn't possible, right? Asking for two notebooks shouldn't have been a giveaway to anything...right? People were allowed to buy two notebooks without having any type of sexual agenda. Nothing about that was even remotely suspicious.

"Well, it's just strange that there's been such a sudden increase in the desire for notebooks. But someone buying a single notebooks is fine. Two people buying two notebooks each is obvious. But one single person deciding to buy two is...very interesting to say the least." Her smirk stretched into large, devious grin.

Hinata hung her head in shame. She didn't even have the energy to try and deny the claims. Now this random stranger knew that she was up to horribly perverted activities.

"Hey now, no need to look so glum. I apologize for teasing you. Like I said, this is very much normal. And remember, everything you do, say and purchase is completely confidential as long as it's legal and involves consent." Hanako comforted her.

"Really? Y-you promise?" Hinata asked, peeking her head up.

Maybe...maybe this wouldn't be too horrible. It was still really bad that one person outside of her relationship knew this private information, but at least now she didn't have to move out the country and hide in a shack in the woods for the rest of her life.

"Yeah. Sex is very hard to discuss and to be open about. It's our job to refrain from spreading sensitive information and to help you the best we can in improving your sex if there's anything else in here you want, or advice that you would like, please feel free to ask."

Hinata contemplated her words for a moment. As much as she would like to deny it, some of the books had caught her attention and she was interested in reading them. And some of the costumes were absolutely scandalous to her, but that didn't erase her interest in possibly maybe wearing them sometime in the future.

Maybe.

But the biggest issue on her mind was, in fact, the notebooks. She needed to write down her deepest fantasies in them, that much she was sure of. But Hinata wasn't sure she had any fantasies to write down. Before the two of them had gotten together, her fantasies were relatively innocent. She had just imagined them going on cute little dates, like Ichiraku or the movies. At most, she imagined them cuddling and kissing. She had also fantasies about the two of them getting married and having children. But Hinata never really thought about the process that would contribute to making said children.

Growing up with a family as strict as hers, and with a personality as shy as hers, she hadn't been exposed by anything too horribly perverted. Definitely not anything she could put in the notebook. So this left her a little bit stuck on what she was actually going to write about.

But maybe...

Possibly...

This woman appeared to be very trustworthy, and Hinata had faith that her eyes would be able to detect signs of deceptions. So if she possibly asked for help, then no one would have to know. Plus it would be for the sake of her relationship with Naruto. She should be able to force herself to push past her embarrassment for the love of her life.

Hinata decided to take the risk.

"Actually, there is something I d-do need help with," Hinata confessed.

"Really? What is it? I promise to help you the best I can." Hanako vowed.

Although Hinata felt confident enough to discuss the topic without stuttering, for the most part, she couldn't properly face the other woman. So she shifted her gaze towards the brown and black notebooks on the glass counter in front of her. They were both leather bound, with strings attached.

"I, uh, don't really know wh-what to write about in the notebook. I don't r-really have fantasies like that." Hinata mentally cringed at how pathetic she sounded.

There was a beat of silence, one that ruly killed her. She came close to retracting her stemet, and running out of the store with what little dignity she had left. But the Hanako spoke.

"So you want possible ideas on what to write about?"

Hinata meekly nodded her head.

"Okay, hold on, give me a second." Hanako turned around and exited the counter she stood behind. She headed towards one of the locked doors, and pulled out a ring of keys. She unlocked the door, and swiftly entered and closed the door behind her. She did it so quick that Hinata hadn't had the chance to get a good look at what was behind said door.

Hinata stood there for what seemed like eternity before Hanako returemed carrying four different books. They were all relatively small, but still left Hinata feeling a little overwhelmed. She really wasn't planning on spending a lot of money at this place. She also didn't want to leave this place carrying too many of the products. It only increased her sense of embarrassment and humiliation.

Hanako returned to her spot behind the counter, and placed the books on the counter besides the notebooks.

"Here are some books that I think will be able to help you. And since this is your first time coming here, I'll let you take them for free, including these notebooks." Hanako said whilst taking out a black plastic bag.

"Oh no, I couldn't do that. I-"

"It's completely fine, hun. We here at the Playhouse are more than happy to assist those developing their sexual journey, and we do hope that you stay safe and come back. More often than not, money is not as important to us as your exploration in your sexuality. It's why our products are considerably cheaper than other sex stores that you'll find." With that, she finished placing all the items in the bag. Hinata was very grateful that nothing was peaking out of said bag. And that it didn't appear even remotely see through.

But it still made her nervous enough to revert back to some old habits. She began poking her fingers together.

"Um, I'm not too sure that I can just take these items for free. And how do you know whether or not those books are going to help me?" She resisted. She didn't feel comfortable taking so many items in the first place. But she really felt uncomfortable with taking these things without paying for them. It naturally made her feel guilty.

"I'm not 100% sure, I'm just going by gut feeling. And I'm asking nicely for you to take these for free. Sex is hard, and I'm more than happy to help you in any way that I can. So think of these as gifts, okay?" Hanako gave her a smile, and extended her hand to give Hinata the bag.

Hinata still hesitated to grab it. Hanako sighed deeply.

"You know the longer you stay here, the more likely it is that people are going to see you when you leave here. So you-" Hanako didn't even get to finish her sentence.

The speed of redness Hinata managed to achieve in her face made it look like a bomb had gone off inside of her. Hinata, as gently and as quickly as she could, snatched the bag out of her hand and zoomed out of the store while thanking her.

"Thankyousomuchforhelp!Goodbyeandhaveaniceday!" She managed to rushout before she left.

The air felt incredibly cool on her overly heated face. She immediately hopped on to the rooftops , and began dashing from rooftop to rooftop. She felt a bit bad for leaving so quickly, but Hanako had made a very good point. The longer she lingered, the more likely it was that she will be caught by people that knew her. And that was something she currently wanted to avoid. Dying of embarrassment hadn't been on her agenda for that day. Possibly, maybe, one day she could go back to that store to properly thank Hanako for the free items.

Hinata wasn't too sure that she was going to return the book. She didn't like the idea of skimming through some pornagraphy. But at the same time, she remained curious. And patching up her sex life was something her and Naruto promised to do together. She had known going into this that it wasn't going to be easy.

'I should a least skim one or two of the books, and offer the other two to Naruto, if he wants.' Hinata thought to herself.

She groaned out loud at the thought of informing Naruto about this. He was going to tease her horribly once she told him about this incident. She would try and hide this from him, but she knew that he would inevitably find out somehow. And the longer she tried to hide it, the worst he was probably going to treat her.

She sighed, and decided to simply brace herself. At the very least, she really hoped that he was still asleep so she could at least have some time to herself before the teasing.

Hinata unlocked the apartment door, and crept inside. She carefully closed and locked the door behind her. She paused, and carefully listened. All she heard was the light snoring coming from the bedroom. She sighed in relief, happy that Naruto was such a heavy sleeper. The young Hyuuga sat herself down on the couch. SHe placed the bag down on the table in front of her, and simply stared at it.

'Okay Hinata, you can do this. Just open up the bag. Just do it. You don't even have to look at any of the books, even though really should. Just pull out the notebooks you were given, and have those ready for Naruto.' She tried to encourage herself.

It took her several more minutes of intense staring, focus, and coaching before she finally managed to garner enough to open up the bag. She ultimately decided that the best course of action would be to take out the notebooks and and the books as well. She needed to at least read the titles of them, if nothing else. It would be the perfect time to do it, since her boyfriend was asleep.

Inhaling and exhaling deeply, she reached out, and grabbed the dreaded bag. She slipped her hand inside, and quickly pulled out the contents out one by one. Hinata forced herself to take in the titles.

The first made absolute sense to her.

'The Princes and the Knight: 100 Sexual Roleplay Fantasies for Couples.'

That one she was grateful for. In her private time, she would read about before writing in her notebook. She made a mental note to really thank Hanako for that book.

'The Guide to Talking About Sex with Your Partner'

Hinata nodded her head at that one as well. Another really decent boko for her to read. Quite amazing, really. It appeared that Hanako really did have a good sense on how to help her.

'52 Sexual Positions for Beginners'

Hinata almost rolled her eyes at that one. It wasn't something that particularly catered to them. But she figured that this books was simply added to help their sex life. Between the other two books, this was last on what she was going to read. And that was only if she read it at all.

The next book...the next book managed to immediately bring back her feriouscious blush. She was absolutely mortified and confused on why a book like this ended up in this pile.

'BDSM'

That was all the title said. The cover of said book was of a woman on black, silk sheets with her hands restrained above her head. A black blindfold covered her eyes, while a red ball gag covered her mouth. She quickly picked the book up in a panic. She needed to hide it. She needed to return the book, immediately. It, 100% did not belong in this collection of books. Of course, Hanako had probably made a simple mistake. It happened to the best of them.

The lavender eyes beauty shot up, ready to make a mad dash for the door. But a tanned hand came from behind, and snatched the book out of her hands.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?"
