Chap 2: A blurred night
Naruto woke up in a mess, slamming his alarm off before the noise cracked his head into two. Naruto could not remember the last time he got that drunk, he was starting to regret the amount of alcohol he had the night before. His alarm started ringing a second time, he finally decided to get up and look at what time it was. "7.30! Shit."
"Shh Naruto, my head is killing me."
"Oh, so sorry Hinata".
Naruto quietly got out of bed and grabbed his Hokage uniform from the wardrobe and headed for a much-needed shower. The cool running water on Naruto's body was wakening his half-asleep state. Images started to flood into Naruto's mind from the night before. He couldn't quite piece the images together, but he remembered Sasuke's eyes clearly, his cute smirk amongst the crowed room.
Naruto didn't even realize he was smiling to himself in the shower and only after realizing how late he was going to be for work did he finally snap out of the daydreams. Naruto couldn't remember much past the two shots he had taken, but he had sworn he kissed someone, maybe Hinata?
He distinctively remembered the kiss being so passionate, beautiful and downright amazing it made Naruto so satisfyingly happy.
He never felt these 'butterfly' feelings anymore with Hinata and usually her kisses were quick and lacked any form of emotion. Naruto was glad that maybe his marriage wasn't a black hole of emotionless love. That kiss was beyond different to anything he had felt in such a long time, he clearly remembered the soft touch of lips on his own, how desperately the lips wanted to devour Naruto's.
Though Naruto could not stay in his thoughts for much longer, he had to get to the office and start on today's papers work and assign some missions that needed to get started immediately. As he left the bathroom, now changed into his Hokage gear he peered into his room where he saw Hinata soundly sleeping. He waited for his heart to start racing, or to feel something. Nothing came, but Naruto wasn't too worried, if last night was any indication of what's to come between his wife and him, he was certainly looking forward to it.
*At the Hokage's office*
Naruto circled his fingertips around his temples, his head still throbbing from the hang over. He hated the crazy amounts of paper work that he had to do, he loved being Hokage, it had been his dream for so many years. But he had thought it would be more fun than this, he knew the more he whined about it, the later he would have to stay and finish up the stack he was looking at.
The first thing that had to get done was summon Sasuke and his genin team so that he could send them off to Sunagakure, Naruto prepared to send a messenger whilst his thoughts started to ponder what level of drunk did Sasuke get last night?
From what he could remember Sasuke had a good time, though considering Naruto could only really remember the first part of the night he wasn't really too sure how the rest of the night had gone.
Not to soon after Sasuke knocked and enter through Naruto's office door. Naruto didn't even realize that he was holding onto his breath and intensely staring at Sasuke. He assumed he was still suffering badly from the hang over to have forgotten basic human functions like breathing.
"Sasuke, wow you look like shit, did you get much sleep last night"?
"Hm, not really dobe, now what assignment do you want me to do?"
Naruto felt a bit hurt by how quick Sasuke was to change the subject and how formal and distant he was being, he assumed it was also due to a bad hang over.
"Well Sasuke, I need you and your team to go to Sungakure for a couple of days, Gaara has requested backup. He says that the forest near the village has been holding a few missing nin who are on the bingo book. Uh, Sasuke are you okay? You don't seem to be paying any attention".
"Huh? Oh, sorry Naruto, I slept badly last night, I guess I had a lot on my mind."
"No problem Hokage Sama, the job will be done."
With a blink of an eye Sasuke had taken the assignment from Naruto's hands and was out the window before Naruto could even say another word. Something in his stomach was unsettled by how strange Sasuke was acting towards Naruto, it seemed like he was sad or annoyed. He had no idea what could have gone wrong last night, maybe he got into a big fight with Sakura over something?
Naruto started on a new pile of stacked up papers, finally starting to gain some focus again on some trades that where currently coming through to Honoha.
Naruto started reaching papers which he hated dealing with, missions which he remembered to be extremely boring to complete when he was a genin. Unfortunately, they had to be done, so he sent a messenger to get Ino and her team.
Naruto knew Ino would kill him for making her go catch a kitty which strayed far from home, but Ino's team had just recently come back from an intense mission last week and Naruto believed it best to give the genin a breather.
Something in Naruto's mind sparked and he could have sworn he remembered Ino stating last night that she would black mail him if he gave her shit jobs. Though as hard as he tried to remember what Ino had said his sobering brain just couldn't figure it out, he just assumed he was making up crazy ideas in his mind.
Ino came through the window, looking less than satisfied to be called at 9.30 in the morning, "Naruto, this better be good, or I swear to God".
"Ah! Ino, well actually I'm sorry I have to do this to you, I need a team to start the daily kitty hunt."
"Naruto, I told you last night I would use my black mail on you if you made me do shit assignments, I hope you don't think I was kidding?"
Naruto was trying to remember the haze which was last night and couldn't remember what Ino had said, but something in his stomach started churning telling him that Ino's statement was correct.
"Ino look, I know you don't want to do this and whatever black mail you have on me, I can probably deal with it."
"Holy cow Naruto, don't tell me you don't remember last night?"
"Wait, what happened last night, I got a bit to drunk, so I can't really remember the second half of the night."
Naruto could have sworn he saw the devil in Ino's eyes, her facial expressions turned into a face of pure evil. Her grin reached the top of her ears and the power radiating off her body was enough to send Naruto flying out of his chair.
"Well, well, well Naruto, it seems I have the upper hand this time, I don't think you would want this flying around all over Konoha?"
Ino pulled out her phone and tossed the phone at Naruto, he caught the phone midair and turned it around to see the screen, everything in his entire body could not have prepared him for what he was seeing, at that moment his brain decided to hit the 'self-destruct' button.
"WHAT THE HELL INO!" "HOW DID YOU EVEN CONVINCE ME TO DO THIS?"
"Well you see Naruto, when you're that drunk your very easy to manipulate."
Naruto looked at himself in this picture, kissing Sasuke, he wasn't even sure if he was awake anymore or if this was all a dream, he stared for what felt like hours, gazing at his lips which were intertwined with Sasuke's.
Naruto couldn't believe how much he looked like he was enjoying the kiss in the photo. But he thought it may have something to do with the large amount of alcohol he had taken that night.
Suddenly something in Naruto's mind had clicked, he realized the kiss he had been thinking about this morning, could that have been the kiss he had with Sasuke? No, it couldn't be, Hinita and him must off kissed later on that night and he was remembering that moment.
Naruto knew that if he deleted this photo off Ino's phone he would win this fight and get her to do the assignment.
"Naruto, I see your trying to find the delete button. Well you can delete it if you like."
"Really Ino?"
"But everyone in the group already has a copy and I have about 5 at home just in case."
"Fuck Ino, I can't believe you are doing this to me, I am Hokage now and you guys are going to ruin me!"
"Hey in my defense Naruto, I only did it so I would get out of shitty assignments and hey it worked."
"Hmmph fine, I will find another team, but Ino if I find anyone outside our group who has it, I swear you better run fast because I will find you, and I will kill you."
"Haha, yer, yer, you don't have to tell me twice, anyways I shall be going back to bed now, good luck trying to find a cat sitter."
Naruto's papers rustled against the wind that Ino created whilst quickly escaping through the window. Naruto sat there staring blankly across his room, he couldn't believe what he just saw, is this why Sasuke was acting all weird with him? Naruto had a thousand questions and things to sort out in his mind, but he would have to think about it when he got home, firstly a cat was needing rescuing.
