I don't own Naruto!
Years. It took years for Konoha to rebuild after the infamous 4th great shinobi war. During those years Love blossomed between the two now known sannins, well one finally understood their feelings for the other, leading to an upper step called Marriage. At their time of marriage the couple could only focus on their undying love for each other until they actually got used to the fact that they'd never stop loving. Not only did their feelings change but their image too. Uzumaki Naruto, the child prophecy, had lost his childish 15 year old image into a built up, tanned, mature man who was always chased my his fan girls or Naruto would say loved by his fans much to Sakura's dismay. Uzumaki Sakura, now legendary medic nin (after surpassing Tsunade), had become more womanly and curvy on the upper body. Now at the age of 20 who knows what could happen.
One blissful morning, the birds were chirping, trees were swaying with the wind, children were running around screaming and basically having fun. That was until a loud desperation sound came from the hyuuga residents...
"I don't know what to do anymore!"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, I've had enough of Naruto's bitterness attitude lately"
"Naruto. Bitter? Must be his hormones acting up" the blonde koinichi giggled.
"Shut up ino-pig!"
"What did you say Forehead girl?"
"Uh...ano...maybe Naruto-Kun's been having a lot on his mind"
"Like what Hina-Chan?" said the pink- haired girl, who surprisingly came back from her battle with Ino, quickly.
"Like the fact that he is going to be Hokage soon" the blue-haired, nervous, koinichi said.
"Ah...your probably right, thanks Hinata!" said Uzumaki Sakura, who said her good byes to her close friends and left.
At the Hokage's office...
"Are you sure about this Naruto?' asked the Hokage.
"Yes I am. The villagers need me"
"I understand but you do know I can assign this mission to someone else?"
"I know... plus this could help me with my training to be the next Hokage"
"Have you told Sakura yet?"
"..."
"Ugh Naruto, she is your wife and-"
"I know but I don't know how to tell her, baachan?"
Ignoring the insult Lady Tsunade replied "Leaving her in the dark is going to make it worse; I suggest you tell her today or you may regret it".
"I will, thanks Hokage-sama" He then jumped out of the window, landing safely on the ground.
'That kid is lucky he used his words wisely before he jumped out the window or he would've gotten hurt really badly' she thought, chuckling to herself.
On the way to Ichiraku ramen shop, Naruto caught a glimpse of pink and suddenly knew who that was.
"Sakura-Chan!" he yelled. Trying to find where the sound source that shouted her name out was coming from until...bingo!
"Oh Naruto, hey" she walked up to him and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.
"Hehe... you look like you were lost" he laughed.
"Hey you gave me a fright and there were so many people I couldn't tell who it was" she responded.
"Do you want to get some ramen with me?" he asked.
"Sure". They went to the ramen shop and eat their favourites, well Naruto's favourite as Sakura wasn't really a fan and went back to their apartment.
"Naruto we need to talk" Sakura said breaking the silence and awkwardness between them when they first entered their home.
"Err... yeah sure" Naruto answered nervously. 'I hope she doesn't know' he thought.
"Naruto, can I ask you something?"
"Ask away"
"Has there been something on your mind lately?" she questioned.
"No, why?"
"I've been wondering"
"About what?"
"About the fact that you've been acting so strange and harsh around me, Do you know how that makes me feel? I've been thinking that I have been doing something wrong all along and it just upsets me" her voice loosing its spirit towards the end.
Naruto stunned at Sakura's confession, looks at her only to see her on the verge of tears, does the only thing he can do. Comfort her.
"Sakura-Chan you haven't done anything wrong, actually it's me who's in the wrong"
"What do you mean?" she said between sobs.
"I mean...". 'Should I tell her?' he questioned himself.
"I just been kinda stressed out about the whole Hokage training, it's no big"
"Oh okay" she said smiling.
'Phew that was close but how am I going to tell her I'm leaving tomorrow' he signed quietly to himself.
Before he could make up a plan he felt warmth on his lips. It finally hit him, Sakura was kissing him. So he joined the kiss making it passionate in the process. After the long kiss they both separated to inhale oxygen which they lost in the battle of the tongues. They both looked at each others glowing eye's saying in unison 'Wow, such beautiful eyes', of course in their minds until they gave in to another battle of the tongues which lead to the bedroom...
4 hours later...
Naruto and Sakura were both lying on their bed with only sheets to protect their bodies. Sakura was asleep and Naruto was along way from sleeping because he had a lot in his mind.
'This is harder than I thought it would be, sigh, what should I do? I have to leave in a few hours'
The next morning came slightly quicker, the sky was dull and it was raining. 'As usual' Sakura thought as she got out of her bed and entered the bathroom.
"Hmn... Naruto must have gone to train" she said to herself.
After she had a bath, brushed her teeth and fixed herself she headed downstairs to have breakfast. Not noticing the note on the kitchen counter, Sakura made herself bacon and eggs. As soon as she finished her breakfast she was about to leave the apartment when suddenly something caught her eye. A note. She picked it up and read the first two words on the front of the envelope 'Dear Sakura', must be from Naruto she thought. She opened the envelope and pulled out the note inside and then she read it out loud to herself.
Dear Sakura-Chan,
This might be hard and shocking to hear but I've gone on a mission, to a village, to help the civilians. You're probably thinking how long... well about 5 years and I know what you're thinking and I'm sorry I couldn't tell you any sooner but I was afraid, I don't know why but I was. I promise you when I get back I will shower you with gifts and buy you anything you like and that's a promise of a life time-ttebayo!
Yours truly,
Uzumaki Naruto, the next Hokage!
P.S. I LOVE YOU.
She stood their in complete shock.
"NANI?" She screamed.
