"Eugh... fuck." Naruto groaned. He had just woken up from a throbbing pain in his head that was a result from all the drinking he had done last night.

The light that was entering through his windows hit his closed eyes and enhanced his dizziness from his hangover. He would have closed the curtains but the windows were a few steps away from his bed so he didn't bother and resorted to turning over on his side away from the direction of the window.

When he did he felt a body of warmth next to him. At first Naruto didn't think about it and just relaxed from the heat emitting from in front of him. Then he lifted his heavy eyelids. His vision was blurry because of his drowsiness and his brain was still struggling to function so it took a second for him to actually see what or who was in front of him.

And when he did his body reacted and he fell from his bed, dragging the bed sheet with him. His fast clumsy motion created a greater pain in his head. He massaged his forehead with his palm, still hungover and slightly buzzed. Then he lifted his head.

A beautiful, fair-skinned girl with dark indigo hair was on his bed, naked. She was breathing slowly still asleep. Naruto couldn't help but examine what was in front of him to make sure that what he was seeing was real and not his brain playing games with him. She had slender arms that looked soft to the touch and her chest was full and perky. Her hips were wide and her legs were fit and curvy. This was the real deal. She was one of the most beautiful people he has ever seen and he didn't know her name.

"Oh god, what did i do-" he lifted the bedsheet to check and see if what happened last night really happened and was only disappointed to see that he was naked as well.

"Fuck." He cursed to himself. He had no idea what to do next. Questions were running through his mind from the events last night like how much did he drink, where did he pick her up, did he use a condom, what is her name? He pulled on his spikey blonde hair with both his hands frustrated from not knowing the answer to any of the questions. Then he heard some shuffling noises coming from the woman on his bed. She was beginning to wake. Naruto frantically searched for a pair of boxers around his room and grabbed for the nearest one and quickly put it on. The female yawned, drowsily sat up from the bed and rubbed her eyes. Naruto was still and awkward and watched all her movements in hope that she hasn't noticed him yet. She slowly opened her eyelids to reveal a beautiful set of lavender eyes. Naruto was stunned, he has never seen anything like them before. The female looked towards him then widened her and heavily blushed.

She reached for the bedsheet that was hanging from the bed and covered herself. Naruto watched her and he noticed that her gestures were graceful. She didn't seem to be as frantic as he was when he was searching for a pair of boxers. In fact, she seemed calm and embarrassed. Naruto was even more confused, was she drunk last night too?

"Good-"

Naruto flinched at her soft voice and made eye contact with her.

"Good morning..." the female finished. Her voice was soft and silky which was weird to Naruto. The women he's had in his life were all very loud and proud so he felt as if he needed to stay cautious of this woman.

"Uh. Y-yeah. Morning'..."

Straight right after there was nothing but awkward silence. Naruto looked at the floor and scratched the back of his head thinking of what to say. He wasn't sure what was the best thing to do in this situation when he doesn't even know how he got himself in this in the first place. Aaaah! What should i say!?

It was the female who finally broke the silence.

"Would you like breakfast?"

Breakfast? At a time like this? Does this woman know the situation right now? Is there something wrong with her? Should I just ask her to leave? Although breakfast sounds good... No! I need to find out what happened!

Naruto usually is loud and always spoke what was on his mind but he's been keeping his guard up and he wanted to stay careful to not make her angry since he's always had that problem with women. This woman was pretty and he didn't want to screw this up.

"Um... do you mind handing me my shirt?" the female spoke.

She pointed to a white blouse that was lying on the floor next to the door that was left wide open.

"Oh, yeah. Sure."

He picked it up and dusted it off. I should have cleaned up my room he thought to himself.

He carefully handed it to her and stepped back still facing her. She started to blush even more and hugged the bedsheet tighter to her.

"Could you, perhaps, t-turn the other way...?"

"Ah! Sorry sorry!" He turned around facing the window on reflex but then had a thought. Didn't we see each other naked last night? Why does it matter now? This woman is really strange...

Suddenly he felt a heavy dizziness and fell to his knees. He had forgotten about his hangover in his state of confusion and his body became heavy.

"Are you alright?" the female said. She stepped next to naruto and bent over towards him showing concern across her face. She had her blouse fully buttoned but you can definitely tell the curve from her breasts.

Naruto looked up and blushed. He was embarrassed of his clumsiness but touched by the stranger's concern over him so he smiled his bright smile.

"Yeah, I'm fine, I just have a small headache. I should probably get some water."

"Let me get it for you." Before Naruto could decline, the female turned around and headed for his kitchen. His apartment was small so his kitchen was just right outside the door.

Naruto had no idea what to think of this woman. She was kind, soft spoken, and she seemed levelheaded so how in the world did he get her in bed with him? He slowly got up and headed for the kitchen to see if she needed help finding the cups. He watched as she looked through the fridge that she bent down in front of. Boy, did she have a really nice figure. She already had the jug of water out so it seemed she was looking for ingredients to cook breakfast with.

"Naruto-kun, all you have is ramen in here."

"Eh...?" Naruto was startled. She knows my name? "Uh yeah, that's pretty much all I eat. Sorry, I don't really have much in there."

"I see..." She was still determined in looking for ingredients and started digging past the boxes of ramen. "Oh!" She reached for something in the back and pulled out a carton of eggs. "I can make omelettes with these. Do you mind?" She turned to Naruto smiling gently which made him blush slightly.

"S-sure." It has been a while since he's last had a proper breakfast so he didn't hesitate to accept her offer. Plus her smile made it hard for him to say no.

She tied her hair up and began to prep for breakfast, meanwhile Naruto sat down on the kitchen table and helped her find the small ingredients such as salt and pepper. The air between them began to lighten up and soon he started to pull a few jokes which she laughed to. A few minutes later the meal was ready. The omelette had a bright golden glow to it mixed with greens and on top was a perfect amount of ketchup with a squiggled design. Naruto said his thanks and began to dig in. Within just a few minutes it was gone and his plate was clean.

"Thank you for the meal!" Naruto cheered. He realized that this was the first time someone had cooked him breakfast in his own home. He was extremely thankful and he couldn't help but show it in his face. The female giggled at his expression.

"I'm glad you liked it!" They both smiled at each other. She took a sip of the tea that she had time to make while preparing for breakfast. Naruto, again, watched her. So far from the short time he spent with her, not including last night, he was able to understand that she definitely was not the type to go home with a stranger and sleep with him, at that. She seemed to have a gentle and innocent nature. She was intelligent too, in one of their conversations she talked about how she had mentioned something about working as a journalist.

He decided to give up on how he picked her up and wanted to focus on the beautiful woman in front of him now. Still, he had to know her name. Since they both seemed to be in a good mood and the atmosphere was light he thought to himself that this would be the perfect opportunity to ask her name.

"Say, this is embarrassing but..." Naruto began, "What's your name?"

Suddenly the female's expression changed. Her eyes widened and she no longer carried the same gentle smile across her face.

"You... you don't-" the female stopped as if she was still processing what he had just asked. She put down her tea and took a breath.

"D-do you remember anything from last night?" She continued. Her voice began to shake slightly

"Well, I remember being upset or something so I went to the nearest bar and pretty much drank whatever I could. After that I can't really remember. It's all a blur to me, ya know?"

Naruto still believed that the mood between them was still good, that is, until she abruptly stood up from her chair. Naruto was startled and saw that she had her head down but he could see the tint of red across her face.

"I'm sorry, I-I have to go. This was a m-mistake." The female stuttered. She started to walk around the apartment in a rush looking for pieces of her clothing.

"W-wait! Hold on!"

Naruto got up from his chair and followed her from behind. He saw that his clothes and hers were scattered across the apartment floor that led a trail to his bedroom door.

"Did I do something wrong? Was it because I can't remember your name? Look, it's because I have a terrible memory okay! Plus I was drunk! Help me understand what's going on! Please, tell me!"

By this time the female had gathered all her belongs and had her clothes on except for her coat. Not once did she look at Naruto.

"I'm sorry, this shouldn't have happened." She started heading towards the door to leave.

Naruto caught a glimpse of her face and saw tears brimming in her eyes. He had made her upset and he couldn't let her leave in such a terrible state knowing that it was his fault. He grabbed her hand before she could open the door. She tried to pull away but she was not match to his strength.

"Calm down, okay?." Naruto's tone changed from panic to concern. "Tell me what's wrong..."

The female stopped struggling but her hands were in a fist. She still had not looked at him. Naruto felt her heartbeat through the veins on her wrists. She was panicked and he felt terrible. He let the silence between them linger and patiently waited for her reply. Finally she spoke.

"It... It was my first time..."

Naruto suddenly felt a strong jolt of guilt. His jaw dropped and his whole body stiffened. He unconsciously loosened his grip on her hand which allowed her to flee. She left his apartment not once looking back at him and Naruto was left behind in a state of shock.

"What the hell happened last night...?"
