I don't own Naruto okay? I know I should be updating some of my other fics but this is an idea that came to my head and yes I know it's not cannon but come on, you have got to admit it's a fun idea. Anyway enough of this A/N, on with the fic!
Tsunade looked at the thin strip with a quiet horror. It was just once! Once! They may have been underage at the time and shouldn't have touched the sake to begin win, but they had just gotten back from a deadly mission. She thought he was a total idiot. And yet she still did it. She slept with Jiraiya. I bet he's really proud of himself for that one. And that's one bet I've won and came out worse on. She thought with a rage as she threw the test across the room. She couldn't let anyone know. She was only 14. No way she could have a child and support it. And what would her parents say? As the granddaughter of the First Hokage she had an image to maintain. And getting knocked up at 14 by her annoying teammate was not a way to maintain it.
"ARRRRRRGGHH! Jiraiya!" Tsunade said as she punched the sink, cracking it. This isn't all his fault and you know that. A voice in her head said. She was studying what she could on medical ninjutsu and the human body and knew how things functioned. Placing her hand on her stomach, she sighed, not knowing what to do now. She was much too young to be a mother. She didn't know what to do nor if she could do it. I'm a kunochi first... She thought as she headed out of the bathroom, thoughts running a mile a minute.
"Is everything okay?" A lady said as she walked out.
"Fine." Tsunade said as she regained her composure. "Just fine. How has your day been Madame Namikaze?" The Namikaze family were close friends with the Senju and Yukari and Takehito had been like mentors to her, being only a little older than she was and were always up for a chat or just to provide their guidance. They had seen the tail end of the founding of Konoha when they were younger and fell in love as the peace was made.
"Oh fine." She smiled. "Takehito and I are meeting with a doctor to see if we can have a child. I hope it all goes well."
"Good." Tsunade said with a strained smile as she headed to her parent's house and sat in her room staring at the ceiling. So Yukari and Takehito are trying to have a child and I'm a child with child... She thought as she stared at the plaster, thinking of what to do. Should I tell Jiraiya? Would he even want it? She thought as she looked around, throwing a kunai into the wall. "Maybe I should talk with Sarutobi-sensei about this..." Tsunade said as she got up and headed to the door. "He might know what I should do."
Tsunade knew she could trust her teacher with anything. He understood what it meant to grow up in a violent and confusing world. Sighing, she knocked on the door to his apartment, just wanting to get this over with.Maybe this is all a bad dream. She thought as Hiruzen opened the door. "Tsunade-hime, to what do I owe this pleasure?"
"Sarutobi-sensei, I need to speak with you." Tsunade began.
"Sure, my door is always open." Hiruzen said with a smile. As Tsunade walked in, his smile fell as she saw the look on her face. "Something is really troubling you, is it not?"
"You'll keep this a secret? You won't tell anyone in the village?" Tsunade said.
"Of course not." Hiruzen said placing his hand on her shoulder. "What is upsetting you so much? You were always one of my most brilliant students."
"Well, you know that mission that Jiraiya and I were sent on about a month ago?" Tsunade began. Hiruzen nodded and motioned to continue. "Well after we finished we went to a bar and had plenty of sake and well one thing led to another and I ended up sleeping with him."
"And you're worried about team dynamics? I mean he can be rather boastful with matters like that." Hiruzen said.
"Not really the fact I slept with him, it gets worse!" Tsunade said. "I am late and found out I am pregnant!"
"Oh dear." Hiruzen said. "This does not make things easy at all. You are so young. A little too young to be having a child and a career as a kunochi."
"I know! And I can't let grandpa or grandma know. I just don't know what to do. Should I just get an abortion? I know some of the older kunochi on seduction missions who ended up pregnant have done that." Tsunade said as she placed her hand on her abdomen.
"That certainly is an option, but you have some conflict or else you would have done it already. I know you Tsunade." Hiruzen said. "What other conflicts are you having?"
"Part of me wants to keep this baby. I have always wanted to be a mother. Also, should I tell Jiraiya? I mean he can be a total pig sometimes and obnoxious, but he's not that bad. And what would he want to do? We're much too young for him to go all, 'Oh Tsunade you're having my baby let's marry' crap." Tsunade yelled, then quieted down, hoping no one overheard her, "And I don't want this mistake to hold him back if he doesn't want to be a dad."
"For you to know the answer on what to do, you must understand your goals in life. If your heart is so set on motherhood, you would go through with the pregnancy no matter what Jiraiya thought. If you were so dedicated to being a hard core kunochi, you'd have gotten an abortion already. You are not certain on yourself, so you don't know which route to take." Hiruzen said as he lit his pipe.
"You're no help sensei." Tsunade sighed.
"Or maybe I am." Hiruzen said as she headed to the door to leave. "Think on what I said and I promise what you told me will never leave this room."
"It had better not." Tsunade said as she shut the door behind her, wondering what to do as she saw a despondent Yukari Namikaze head out of the doctor's office. "Is everything alright?" She said, running over, suppressing her own fears and anger.
"Fine, I guess. I just had a check up and the doctor says I may be infertile." Yukari said rubbing her eyes.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Tsunade said, stomach clenching from guilt.
"It's not your fault." Yukari said. "The doctor said it may have been from a battle wound I had in my abdomen when I was younger. I barely survived."
"I wish there was something I could do." Tsunade said.
"Oh there's nothing. I know you're studying Medical Ninjutsu, but you aren't that skilled yet." Yukari said with a bittersweet smile. "You are good to want to help." She sighed as she went to the market to handle her shopping for the day.
Maybe there IS something I can do. Tsunade thought as she ran off her house, to think over Hiruzen's words and what she did want to make of this pregnancy.
So how was that? Good? Bad? Talky? Short? I know it's shorter than my other usual works but I intend for this to be a quick mini-series fic like my story Christmas Comes Earlier Each Year. I always had a fun little fan theory that given his blonde hair and how much he looks like Jiraiya, that Minato was actually his and Tsunade's son. But doing some math based on information on wikia, I found that Tsunade would only be about 14 when Minato was born. So I got to thinking how I could make that theory work and if she was 14, she would likely give the baby up for adoption. But like I said, I am intending this to be a mini-series so this will be only a few chapters. So remember to read (well you just did) and to review. Ciao for now,
