DISCLAIMER: MASASHI KISHIMOTO OWNS NARUTO NOT ME.
WARNING: NARU/MINA. INCEST. HINT OF UNDERAGE. DUB-CON.
Prologue (Reason of Naruto's first heat)
"Is that what you think, Naruto? You think that I'm sad because I'm lonely without mom and you try to cheer me up but I get mad at you for causing ruckus. What a huge mess. And you miss having a mom, huh?"
The revelation was somewhat a relief, to know that this must be the reason of his boy's heat. Not that Minato would reveal it to the Council. It would not go well, because last time Kushina was almost expelled from the village for trying to convince that it's the Kyuubi's heat not some fox's random angry outbursts.
"But no one wants to be my mother," Naruto whispered, downcast.
"Naruto, no one can replace your mother, okay? She's very special, you know. If you cannot find a woman who is willing to die for you, she cannot be your mother." There was a deep ache in Minato's heart, because Kushina was indeed special.
Uzumaki clan was a very noble clan, despite the discrimination and their harsh history. The sole purpose of their existence is to be either a Jinchuuriki or a Seal Master, a shinobi art that was honed over several years to restrain and contain these powerful demon beasts, so humanity survived and civilization thrived. Kushina was one strong kunoichi who was not scared with others' prejudice against her clan, or with being a Jinchuuriki. She was strong-willed, brave, and loud, different from a general female stereotype. Minato had always admired her unique personality that made up her strong identity as an Uzumaki.
"But... are you going to be sad again, and get mad at me?"
Minato took a deep silent breath, thinking how he should reply this question. "I won't get mad again unless I know the reason why you do it is wrong. But I'm wrong too, am I? I don't know that you are lonely, and I have neglected you. Next time, tell me the truth okay? I don't want you to paint the whole town red just to get my attention. You know how hard it is for me to deal with the Council about your shenanigans."
Naruto chuckled, and Minato felt happy to see his boy at least lighten up.
"Promise me that you won't pull that kind of pranks again, okay?" Minato offered his pinkie.
"Promise me you won't get mad at me Dad?" There's a childish gleam as Naruto said it.
Minato grinned and curled their pinkie together. "I won't ever get mad at you, because you won't ever pull pranks again."
Naruto slipped his pinkie away and exclaimed. "Whaaat? That will be boring! I thought you only say about painting Hokage faces?"
Today's paper work was too much as usual, but nothing he couldn't manage. He just came home much later at night; his "home" now was a place of quarantine for Jinchuuriki temporarily, since the Council didn't want to take risk with Kyuubi's rage outbursts in Naruto. They believed Kyuubi chakra power was too strong and large for the boy to contain, and that was the reason for a significant rise of Kyuubi ominous presence in Naruto. Some of the members of Konoha Council were from Hyuuga and Uchiha clan, and their eyes could see a flame-like chakra shrouding Naruto resemble to a fox, causing unrest among them. Minato knew he couldn't bring up the topic concerning heat. They wouldn't believe it.
Minato was brought out from his deep muse when Naruto threw his short leg over the older blond's strong thigh. The boy had been a wild sleeper, and now he moved to sleep on his stomach, but ended up half-sprawled on Minato's body, one arm landing across the man's stomach. Minato's eye widened when he sensed Kyuubi's chakra presence, strong and intimidating. He knew what this meant.
Naruto's small fingers curled his shirt in a tight grip, a small whimper, nose rubbing against the side of his shirt, they're all subtle gesture, and Minato didn't panic this time when he could feel a small hot lump pressing against his sweatpant.
Damn. Of all times, why must be this hour?
He thought he could escape this awkward situation by sleeping already, like last night. The first time it happened, Naruto was on top of him and clung to his neck like a lifeline. The boy was awake and confused too. Minato had to explain awkwardly about Kyuubi's heat, and could only share his limited knowledge from what he gained in his past experience when Kushina had her heat.
Good thing he had assured the ANBU shinobi who kept watch any suspicious threat outside the building that he could handle this. It was his mission also to make sure Kyuubi under control at all times whenever Naruto was being quarantined, an indirect approach to quarantine him as well since he had Yang Kyuubi inside him. It must be Danzo's and the Council's ploy.
If Minato focused chakra to his ears, he bet he could hear Naruto's fast heartbeat, from how tense his son's form looked, spine coiled in a way that Naruto would curl himself into fetal position if Minato's large body wasn't in the way, blocking his movement. In such attempt, Naruto's knee nudged Minato's groin, causing the older man to gasp in surprise, his large body jerked by reflex, away from invading limbs.
But that didn't stop a sudden hot wave down his spine and a memory of Naruto's hot prick pressing against his abdomen the first time when this all started. Evening his breath to slow down his rapid heartbeat, Minato hoped his arousal would end soon and forced himself to sleep.
