Part 2: Time Flows
Time skip: 2 years later
It is a lovey morning in Shell Town. Everyone is starting to get up and start their day. In a certain window, a light shines down on two figures in bed. One of the figures stirs, revealing his sapphire eyes. The person sleepily looks around the room as he rubs the sleep from his eyes till he sets his eyes on the clock on the nightstand next to him. The clock display 7:30 A.M. The blonde haired man stretched his body as he was about to get ready to start his day. He notices a stirring next to him and looks to reveal a woman in her late teens with pink hair that went down a little past her shoulders and wore only white sleeveless night shirt and pink bra and panties. She turned in her sleep as she pressed her head more towards her pillow. The blonde smiles as he looks at her. He still can't believe that he is together with this woman.
Flashback: 1 year and 8 months ago
Naruto was really nervous. He had contemplated asking Sakura out for dinner. He knew that she probably only thought of him as a close friend but he felt like he should ask her out as a friend. Though Naruto did notice that Sakura has been acting strange lately. When he turned sometimes to look at her, he noticed that her face was slightly red. He even caught her looking at him sometimes but quickly turned away. He asked if she was sick which was met with a smack upside the head and a yell of 'BAKA'. He honestly had no idea what was wrong with her? Maybe she was having one of those 'period' things Jiraiya told him about during his 2 ½ year trip?
He was walking down the street of Shell town, trying to gather his thoughts on what his relationship with his pink haired friend was. He knew that she counted him as a close friend still which was surprising considering he had killed the one she loved. He wasn't complaining about her still being his friend at all! He'd be crushed if that happened! He knew that he still loved her but there was no way he was going to ruin the relationship he had with her by asking her out on a date.
His train of thought was interrupted by the sight of his female teammate he was thinking about. He blushed a bit before getting it under control as he noticed she was walking his way.
"Hey Naruto" she smiled
"Hey Sakura-chan!" he grinned
"What are you up to?" she hadn't seen him all day really. He got up early this morning and she couldn't find him till now. Was there something wrong with him?
"U-Uh nothing Sakura-chan!" He scratched the back of his head nervously. It was a habit of his that he had picked up his mother, Kushina, along with his craving for ramen and his prankster attitude. He hoped he could come up with a good excuse. He didn't want to worry her "I-I was out training for a while and after that I felt like getting something to eat" That wasn't complete untrue either. He did go out training earlier and he was thinking about getting something to eat. He just ended training early to think about all that had happened in the two months in this strange new world.
In the time that the two of them arrived in this world, they had become very welcomed members of the town. When the citizens heard about finding the two seriously injured in the woods, they immediately attributed the injuries were caused by pirates. Naruto and Sakura decided to go along with this story because it seemed the most plausible. Doctor Yagos and his nursing staff, along with Ririka and Rika, decided to keep their secret safe. The two ninjas were eternally grateful and offered to help in any way they could.
It was through this that Sakura applied for a job at the local clinic. Yagos was surprised that the girl knew such a large amount of medical knowledge at such a young age. Sakura was hired as a nurse the next day. After the 2 months, she really seemed to enjoy her job. Yagos was even thinking of giving her a doctor position in a couple of months. People were already calling her the legendary 'Healing Blossom'.
Now another topic came to light that interested them quite a bit. Pirates. The bandits of the seas who raid ships and steal their food and valuables and raid towns just for the hell of it. It appeared that pirates were a major problem in this world and it was up to the marines to take them down. This interested the 2 ninja quite a bit because they remember pirates from their world. Sure there weren't that many attacks because they were only on the ocean. The two of them had only fought some a couple of times through missions but they were relatively weak. They didn't see what could be so hard about taking them out.
It was only when they were explained to by Ririka that 20 years when Gold Roger, King of the Pirates, was executed he proclaimed a famous treasure that encompassed all of his wealth, One Piece, was somewhere in this wide world and jokingly shouted for them to find it. It was since then that pirates all over the world set out to find said treasure and become King of the Pirates. Naruto's eyes sparkled as he heard about this famous Roger guy. He sounded awesome! Only a complete badass could say something like that at his death! He decided not to vocalize his opinion to his teammate. He would be smashed into the ground if he said something like that. Sakura on the other hand was concerned about the sudden uprising in pirates. With the large increase in pirates, it was likely that a lot of people were and still are being killed from said pirates. She didn't like that one bit. She was a medic nin after all. Her job was to save lives and they went against what she stood for.
Now the two of them might have thought that getting rid of pirates might be tough but with the amount of marines and their technology, it was a little hard to imagine the marines would have this much trouble with the pirates. Their answer came from Ririka who explained Devil Fruits. Now Naruto heard about this already and didn't comment as Ririka told Sakura. Needless to say, she was floored. She had never heard of such a thing! This was just like using Jutsu in their world! No, these fruits were better than their jutus! With the power of the devil fruit, you can change your body into whatever the fruit you ate's abilities were. It would be fascinating to study how a devil fruit users body was in comparison to a normal humans. Both she and Naruto concluded however that neither of them would eat a devil fruit. Even though it might be cool to have an ability like that, the drawback of eating one was too high. Eating a fruit meant not being able to swim for the rest of your life. With a world made primarily of water, they thought it would be too much of a risk to eat even with the water walking ability.
"-uto!-ruto! NARUTO!" He was brought out of his thoughts with a smack upside the head.
"OW! What was that for Sakura-chan?" Naruto wined.
She huffed a little before answering "You didn't answer me when I called out to you. You sure you are okay?" she was getting suspicious! Now act cool. Think of something believable. Something to lead her concern away from this topic.
"I-I was just thinking about asking you on a date tonight" he grinned as he rubbed the back of head. He then noticed the surprised look on her face along with a blush to go with it. He didn't know what he said wrong? He was just asking her…on….a…date…..OH SHIT! HE ASKED SAKURA-CHAN ON A DATE? WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HIM? TONIGHT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A DINNER WITH FRIENDS, NOT A DATE! SHE IS TOTOALLY GOING TO KILL HIM NOW! "W-Wait! I-I didn't mean it like that! I meant-"
"Sure"
"…..Huh?" Did…Did he hear right?
The pink haired kunoichi had a small smile on her face along with a blush "Sure. I'll go on a date with you tonight Naruto"
…..WHAT? SHE AGREED? HE THOUGHT SHE NEVER WANTED TO BE MORE THAN FRIENDS! WELL WHATEVER, HE WASN'T GOING TO WASTE THIS OPPORTUNITY! YAHHOOOOO! Naruto's face turned bright red and he seemed to find the floor very interesting "O-O-Okay. S-Sakura-c-chan" Dammit he was sounding like Hinata! "How about I meet you at the bar at say 7?"
The girl found the floor interesting too as she was fiddling with a lock of her hair "O-Okay. I-I'll see you later" She turned around and started walking briskly back to Ririka's bar. She had so much to do! It was already 2'o clock and she had to get ready!
"Y-Yeah! See ya!" the boy had a grin on his face as she left. When he was sure that she was gone, he shouted with joy "YATTA!" He couldn't believe it! He was going on a date with Sakura! SAKURA! He couldn't keep the grin off his face. He would make sure to make this the best date she's ever been on! He only now just noticed where he was and saw the townspeople staring and some of them giggling. He blushed bright red, scratched the back of his head and ran off to set up the date.
Time Skip (6:50 P.M.)
Naruto was walking nervously down the road towards the bar where he would pick up his date. He blushed for 5th time today. His date. He really was going on a date with Sakura-chan. The girl he cared for most. The one he would die to make her happy. The one who he loved. He really hoped everything went well tonight. Even though this most likely won't happen again. Maybe Sakura was just taking him on a date as pity for not accepting his date requests when they were 12. He shook his head furiously. He couldn't think like that. He had to think positive. It's what he always does! He noticed that he was at the front door of the bar. He gulped nervously and headed inside.
Ririka heard the bar door open and looked up to see her nervous spiky haired blonde boy guest. She grinned seeing how nervous he was. She knew that her two guests had feelings for each other but were really nervous for moving forward with their relationship. When she heard from a positively giddy Sakura that she was going on a date with Naruto, she was ecstatic! She immediately moved her back out towards the door. The two of them were going shopping. They searched around the shops looking for the perfect dress for her to wear when they spotted a beautiful red dress in the window display of the shop they were passing. They both knew that they had to get that dress. Thankfully the price on the dress wasn't too high so they bought it.
Sakura knew that she loved the dress as soon as she saw it. It would match her perfectly with her emerald eyes and pink hair. She also noticed the dress seemed to hug her body and show off her curves in all the right places. The red dress was strapless which draped down to just above her ankles and showed off a bit of cleavage. She knew that Naruto would love it! She also knew that he would be oogling her which is exactly what she was hoping for.
She had figured out a month ago of her feelings for her blonde haired teammate. She thought long and hard about all of the things he did for her and how she felt when he did those things for her. He was always there for her. Always there to keep her happy. Always there to comfort her when she is sad. Always there to support her in anything she did. She remembered how she felt happy when Naruto cheered for her in the Chunin exams when she went against Ino. She felt happy and grateful when she learned that Naruto saved her from Gaara. She felt nervous and had butterflies in her stomach when she saw Naruto again after 2 ½ years when he went on his training trip with Jiraiya. She felt immensely worried and sad when he transformed into his 4-tailed Kyuubi form to battle Orochimaru. She felt she couldn't do anything at the time and was completely useless. She felt relieved and happy when Naruto came back victorious from his battle with Pain. She cried immensely when she learned that Naruto loved her. All that time he loved her and when she cried to bring Sasuke back, he still did it for her. She felt that she didn't deserve such a great and caring man. So she tried to confess to him to stop him from going after Sasuke. But that didn't turn out as she planned. He found out she was not completely true on her feelings. She remembered when Naruto scooped her up in his arms before Sasuke could kill her. She remembered how safe and secure she felt in his arms and how she wished to stay in that warmth he exuded. She knew right after thinking about all of these things that she was in love with him.
"Well it's about time!" she heard her inner voice speak to her in exasperation.
"Oh. Your back"
"Yep! And it seems like you finally figuredout your feelings for him!" now she sounded giddy with joy.
"Yeah. I do love him. I can't believe I was such a bitch to him when we were kids. I'm so glad that he didn't give up on loving me. I just hope he still has feelings for me" she was worried. She didn't know how he felt after her fake confession. She really hoped he still had feelings for her still.
"Of course he still does! He still loves you! He risked his life to make sure you didn't die when that explosion sent you guys to another world! He even stayed conscious with all thoughs wounds he had to make sure that you were healed. There is no way he doesn't love you!"
"Y-You're right! He does love me! And I love him! I'm going to make sure that this date is the best one ever! I'm going to make him happy after all of the things I did to him!"
"That's the spirit girl! Now let's get ready and make this the best night of both your lives!"
"Yeah!"
"And maybe you can finish the night with him in bed!" her inner self giggled pervertedly
Sakura blushed furiously at her inner self's thoughts "WOE! WOE! WOE! WAY too early to think about stuff like that yet. I want to date him for a while before I even think about moving towards that direction.
"Awww! Come on!" the inner self wined "You know how sexy he looks! Just pull him into bed and jump his bones!"
"NO WAY! That is way too soon!"
"Aww! Your no fun!" she pouted
Sakura ignored her inner self as she got prepared for the date. She made sure to shower early and had plenty of time to prepare. She pulled on her dress and looked in the full sized mirror in her room. She had to say, she look hot! She knew that Naruto was going to be drooling when he saw her! She giggled and blushed at the thought. She was brushing her hair and finishing the last touches on her make up when she heard Ririka call from the main part of the bar.
"Sakura! Your date is hear!" the woman sounded really cheery. Taking a shaky breath, Sakura walked out of her room and towards the main bar area.
Naruto was nervously anticipating when Sakura would come out. He hoped she would enjoy tonight and that he looked okay. He heard the door to the bedrooms open and what he saw made his jaw drop and eyes bulge.
Sakura looked HOT! With that red dress that hugged her curves in all of the right places combined with those red heels, she looked gorgeous! He couldn't stop his eyes from roaming her body,
Sakura was a similar situation when she saw what Naruto was wearing. He wore a white buttoned up collard shirt with a black coat over it. He also wore black dress pants and black dress shoes. The suit showed off a bit of his muscles which she noticed. His muscles seemed not ripped but just the right amount. She also noticed he had matted his spiky hair a bit but it was still mostly spiky. She was almost drooling at the sight of him.
They both straightened up in surprise and turned their head away with a blush adorning their faces when they noticed they were checking each other out.
"Y-You look beautiful, Sakura-chan" Naruto complimented her
Sakura blushed deeper "Y-You look handsome too, Naruto"
"S-So let's get going!" Naruto held out his hand. Sakura blushed furiously and placed her hand in his as they started out the street to their date.
"Y-Yeah!"
The two moved through the streets acting very nervous. This was the first date that either had been on. They didn't know what to do so they just moved towards the area Naruto was leading Sakura to. They didn't even notice that through the whole thing, they were still holding hands.
The two finally came upon a fancy looking building with a red carpet entrance and a neon lit sign for the name of the restaurant. It was named "The Oasis" Sakura was in awe at how fancy a place this was. She couldn't believe that Naruto was taking her here on their date! She was really excited now and hoped the date kept getting better and better.
They went up to the reception desk to let the waiter know they were here. The waiter led them to a booth near the dance floor of the restaurant. The waiter handed them the menus which they didn't take long to look at to come up with their orders. Sakura was getting a little worried. All the food was so expensive! She was going to get something cheap but Naruto waved it off saying she could get anything she wanted. Even though she was a little unsure about it, Naruto let her order the chicken alfraido with a side salad and a glass of water. Naruto ordered a Medium-well steak with mash potatoes and green beans with also a water. The waiter took the menus and left the two alone for a little bit.
Both were very nervous and didn't know how to respond to each other so they asked each other how their day went. This helped relax a bit and enjoy themselves. It was during this time that the two finally got a good look at the restaurant. It was a two story building with white walls, large white pillars that held up the second floor which also had tables and chairs spread across the room. The second floor didn't have much space because there was no middle part of the floor and the tables stretched around the building in a 'U' shape with a handrail surrounding it. On the first floor, the middle area made up the dance floor with tables spread out everywhere else. At the back of the room was a stage with a band playing soft music which helped with the romantic feeling of the restaurant.
The waiter finally came with their orders and left the two to enjoy themselves. The food was delicious! They sat there eating and enjoying talking to each other when a song started playing from the band. They had finished their food and both were nervous about what to do now. Thankfully Naruto got up from his seat and held out his hand to her.
"W-Would you like to dance?" He was incredibly nervous. He was mentally patting himself on the back for being able to ask her. He just hoped that she said yes.
The rosette blushed and put her hand in his as she stood up and headed out to the dance floor with him "S-Sure…" she said quietly but enough for him to hear her. They reached the dance floor and noticed other couples dancing with their partners. The two flowed with the music while the whole time looking into each other's eyes. The slowly swayed to the music (Sleep Away by Bob Acri) without stepping on each other's feet which was a great relief to Naruto. The jazz music just seemed to send them into their own little world. To the two of them, the room and occupants seemed to disappear, leaving only the two of them. Sakura smiled lovingly at the blonde. He did a great job with the date. He took her to this romantic place and was dancing with him. This just seemed to have her love him even more.
Naruto was just looking into those emerald orbs of hers, getting lost in her eyes. He couldn't believe how well things had been going so far. Hopefully the date ends great so he can have the chance to ask her out on another one.
The music slowly stopped and then the two were brought out of their fantasies by the sound of clapping. They stopped to see that they were the only two in the middle of the dance floor and the other restaurant guests were clapping for them. The guests thought how sweet and cute they looked together. The two blushed brightly at this and headed back towards the table to pay for their check. After paying, they headed out the door and back towards Ririka's bar. They noticed that they had spent quite a bit of time in their and both were a little tired. It looked to be about midnight so they thought it would be best to call it a night.
They headed inside through the side door so that they wouldn't disturb the bar people. They slowly headed towards their rooms. After they had recovered, they slept in separate rooms which were right across from each other. Both were blushing brightly as they stood outside each other's rooms.
"I-I-I had a great time tonight, Naruto!" Sakura was still blushing and had a bright smile on her face.
"Y-Yeah I did too. We should do this again sometime" The blonde was extremely nervous now. This would be the make or break. If she said yes, that meant they might be boyfriend and girlfriend. If not, then they would still be friends. He really really hoped it was the first choice.
Sakura's whole face seemed to be the same shade as her hair as she answered "Y-Yeah, I would like that"
Naruto was ecstatic! She said yes! In the moment of sheer joy, he did something neither of them expected. He pulled her close, moved his face down towards her and pressed his lips on hers. Sakura's eyes shot wide open. HE KISSED HER! HE'S KISSING HER! Sakura slowly closed her eyes and simply enjoyed the feeling of her lips on his as she too responded to the kiss.
Naruto at first didn't think. His mind seemed blank. He didn't think he would ever be in this situation in all of his life. His mind finally came together a couple of seconds after pressing his lips to hers. HE'.SAKURA! He was freaking out! He just knew that this was the end! He was going to be smacked in the face. She was going to hate him and never go out on a date with him again! His thoughts came to a screeching halt when he felt her responding to the kiss and deepening it. WHAT? SHE LIKES IT? YES! Naruto responded with new vigor as he felt his lips press against her soft ones. She could also tell that she tasted like chicken and cherries. He guessed that was what she tasted like. He just hoped that this would happen more often.
After several minutes, their lips parted as they breathed heavily. They just stared at each other. They both couldn't believe how great that kiss was. As one they only had one word to say to that experience.
"Wow" they said at the same time. They both blushed for the hundredth time tonight and looked away shyly. Both were nervous again and didn't know what to do.
Naruto decided to take a chance. That kiss meant she liked him, right? So he decided to say the words that he always wanted to say to her "I love you, Sakura-chan"
Time seemed to freeze at the utterance of those words. Sakura's eyes were shot wide open in shock. He finally said it! HE LOVES HER! YES! Now to respond! Sakura just smiled at him before responding with something that Naruto wished that she would say since they were kids.
"I love you too, Naruto"
Now it was Naruto's turn to be shocked. SHE LOVES HIM? After everything that's happened between them, SHE LOVES HIM? YEEESSSSS! He could tell she meant it just by looking in her eyes. This was different from her previous confession. This time he knew she meant it. He felt like he was floating.
Sakura just smiled at him as she leaned towards him and gave him a small peck on the lips as she said goodnight to him. Naruto stayed out in the hallway for a second before a giant grin spread across his face. He calmly headed out the window, towards the forest where no one could hear him and expressed how he felt.
"YYYYYYEEEEESSSSS! SHE LOVES ME! HAHAHAHHA! I CAN'T BELIVE IT! SHE LOVES ME!" He was jumping up and down like he was on a sugar rush. He felt so happy now! He finally got Sakura to love him! Albeit he had to wait for a long time and a lot of things happened but it was well worth the wait! After he got that out of his system, he headed back to the bar. When he made it to his bed, he plopped down and got changed into his night clothes. As he went to sleep, he had a big grin on his face at how well tonight had gone. What he didn't know was that Sakura was thinking the same thing. She was absolutely giddy at how great the date was.
"I can't believe he said he loves me!" she squealed in her head
"Great job girl! Now the next thing you need to do is get to bed with him!"
"WHAT? NO! THAT'S WAY TOO SOON! I WANT TO TAKE THIS RELATIONSHIP SLOW! I DON'T WANT TO RUSH THIS!"
"AWE! Come on! Just sex him up! You know you want to!"
"I TOLD YOU NOT YET! I'M NOT READY FOR THAT YET!"
Her inner-self huffed "Fine, but don't take too long! We wanna jump his bones soon"
"I'll DO THAT WHEN I'M DAMN WELL READY!" she canceled any connection with her perverted inner self and just thought back on how great that kiss was and how great the night was.
With a large smile on their faces, they both fell asleep; each hoping that they next day would be a great one"
FLASHBACK END
He smiled when he remembered that night. It was the start of their relationship which only seemed to get better as the days went on. They were so happy together. Nothing seemed to go wrong when they were with each other. He looked down at each other's ring finger to see a silver ring with matching sapphire and emerald crystals on the middle and cherry blossom petals and whirlpool swirls along the bands. He smiled at the day that their two lives became one.
FLASHBACK BEGIN: 1 year ago
It was around 10 o'clock at night and the town was lit up with night lights. Everyone was going about their night. People going to bars. Others going to restaurants. But what was going on of great interest was in the woods near the shore. In a clearing that overlooked the ocean, there was a blanket laid out beside a tree with an assortment of food placed on it. On it were two people who were very much in love. They were Naruto and Sakura. It had been another great date. Naruto had taken Sakura out shopping most of the day which lead to her trying on different clothes to see if she looked good in any of them. Needless to say, Naruto had a couple bloody noses from the clothes she picked out. Naruto then led her to the forest which seemed to confuse her. She was shocked to find a picnic dinner overlooking the sea. It was a very romantic setting and she loved that he put so much thought into it for her. They ate the food which was a delicious turkey and lasania dish with rice, bread, mash potatoes with gravy, green beans and watermelon. Everything looked so good! They had finished their food and were looking out on the ocean as the moon's light reflected off the water.
"It's beautiful" Sakura said quietly as she laid next to Naruto with her head resting on his shoulder.
"Yeah, it is" but Naruto wasn't looking at the ocean. He was looking at his favorite cherry blossom girlfriend. He really enjoyed being around her. Everything just seemed so easy around her. Which is why he asked out here tonight for a very special reason. He felt into his pants pocket at the small object in there. He just hoped that she said yes. He had a pretty good feeling that she will but he was still nervous and scared that she'll say no. Deciding that it was better to get this over with than wimp out, he pulled himself off of her and slowly got up.
Sakura looked confused at Naruto's sudden action. Was he okay? He was acting strange now. She really hoped that she didn't do anything wrong and upset him "Naruto?"
Naruto took a big breath and exhaled, then looked straight at her as she got to her feet "Sakura, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever met. I still can't believe that we're together. It feels like a dream being with you. Whenever I'm with you, I feel so happy. The last 8 months have been the best in my entire life"
"W-Why are you saying this?" she was a little frightened. Was he breaking up with her? She really hoped not! She didn't do anything wrong that she can think of! She only hit him when he was being stupid! She really hoped he wasn't breaking up with her because of that. All train of thought seemed to stop however when she noticed he had a serious expression on his face as he got down on one knee. She felt her heart stop. W-W-Was h-he? "N-N-Na-ru-to?"
"I can't imagine my life without you Sakura, so I ask you" he fumbled into his pocket and pulled out a velvet box and opened it for her to see "Will you marry me?"
Sakura was totally floored. He-He-HE PROPOSED! She looked at the silver ring with cherry blossoms and whirlpool swirls all along the band and noticed the sapphire and emerald crystals in the middle. It was absolutely perfect. Tears started streaming down her face as she looked at the wonderful man of hers,
Naruto was freaking out inside. She was crying! Did she not like it? He was sure that she would! Did she not want to get married to him? All negative thoughts disappeared as a pink blur rammed into him and pushed him to the ground. He looked up to see a still crying Sakura but she looked at him with so much love in her eyes "Sakura-chan?"
"Baka! Of course I'll marry you!" She smiled as a gigantic grin came across his face as he took the ring and slipped it onto her ring finger. She then crashed her lips onto his. She slipped her tongue through his mouth and engaged in a tongue war with her now fiancé.
Flashback END
He smiled at the pink haired girl next to him in bed. He had finally managed to marry the girl of his dreams and were married for about a year already. They had moved out of Ririka's bar and bought a little house nearby. The house was 2 stories with a living room, dining room, kitchen, a bathroom, and an entertainment room which had a mini bar area, a pool table and a piano. The second floor held 3 bedrooms which each had their own separate bathroom, and a study. At the other end of the hallway was a cord dangling that lead to the attic. The house had a white picket fence surrounding the front with plants and herbs surrounding the cobble stone path that lead to the front door. The backyard had a pretty big pool and a hot tub with enough space for some lawn chairs and a grill. In Naruto and Sakura's room, it was a decent sized room with a small snail on the headboard of their bead which displayed the screen for T.V., a king sized bed, a night stand on each side, a dresser on one wall and a 2 doors on the other side. One door led to a walk-in closet which was filled to the brim with clothes and shoes. Sakura said she never had enough clothes and shoes which Naruto thought was bullshit because of how filled that closet was of her stuff. But she would never tell her that unless he wanted the beating of a lifetime. The other door led to their bathroom which contained a two person sink, a pretty large shower and a bathtub/ Jacuzzi. They really enjoyed using the shower and Jacuzzi. They put both to very good use. He blushed furiously at the thought and had a perverted grin on his face.
He slowly disentangled his arms from his lover's body and walked into the bathroom. He slipped off his white sleeveless shirt and black boxer shorts and stepped into the shower. He turned the water to the right temperature, hot but not too hot, and relaxed into warm cascades of water flowing down his body. He grabbed some body lotion and rubbed it all over his body. Just as he was about to grab the shampoo, the shower door opened, then closed and then Naruto felt two hands and a feminine body press up against him "Good Morning Naruto" his wife purred into his ear.
His little member was standing erect when she did that. It happened every time. She knew he was putty in her hands when she did that. She loved having power over him for things like this "Good Morning Sakura-chan" he grinned as he turned and kissed his wife on the lips. He was feeling aroused and the warm shower was only helping it. He looked at her face and noticed a seductive smirk on her beautiful face "What are you up to my seductive Cherry Blossom?"
She just grinned lusciously "Nothing my Fox, just wanted to get you all…nice….and….clean" With each syllable she slowly snaked her hand down to his junk and knew exactly what she wanted. She was really horny in the morning and Naruto had no complaints at all about that.
He just grinned as his face got closer to hers "Sounds good. Why don't I help you get all clean too? How's that sound?"
She whispered seductively as their lips almost touched "Perfect". Groans, moans, and shouts of ecstasy could be heard coming from the bathroom.
Time Skip: 2 hours later (10 A.M.)
Naruto and Sakura finally came out of the shower. Their skin was a bit red from staying in too long but they didn't care. They got dressed with Naruto watching her put on her panties and bra. He quickly turned around and got dressed too. They made their way down stairs as Naruto headed towards the door to pick up the morning paper while Sakura made breakfast. He opened the door and picked up the paper and inhaled the morning air. It was great day. The sun was shining, there didn't seem to be many clouds out today so it didn't look like it will rain.
His eyes drifted over to the Marine base. The base didn't change at all over the years. The only thing that was changing was when he squinted, he could see a statue about finished at the top of the tallest building. His blood started to boil and the newspaper crumpled in his grip as he glared angrily at the base. It wasn't so much the base that he was furious act but it was 2 individuals who now ran the base that he held his contempt for.
Flashback 3 months ago
It had been 9 months since Naruto and Sakura's marriage and they couldn't be happier. Sakura was now 2nd in command of the hospital and Naruto was working with Ririka at her bar. Ririka really appreciated the extra help and couldn't be happier that it was one of her favorite people on the island. She and Ririka had been ecstatic when they had heard that Naruto had proposed to Sakura 9 months ago. Both of them had been coaxing and giving Naruto advice to help him win Sakura's heart. They were at the ceremony where they officially became man and wife. She had tear up when she saw how beautiful Sakura look and how handsome Naruto was. It reminded her so much of her wedding day. When Naruto asked if he could get a job at her bar, Ririka happily accepted. The 18 year old blonde helped out a lot during the day and at night. Thankfully both Naruto's and Sakura's schedules didn't clash so he only helped till around 2 a.m. which was around the time Sakura got off.
Naruto was heading towards the bar when he noticed a group of Marines walking down the street with a large man with a freaky looking axe in place of his right hand. The man was tall with large muscles and shaved dirty blonde hair. Naruto also noticed he had an iron jaw. Overall he looked intimidating. It was then that the blonde noticed the man had on a captain's coat. He wondered why he was wearing one. Was it a visitation or some inspection or something? He didn't know but he didn't like the looks of the bratty looking man next to the large imposing man. The guy was wearing a purple suit and long purple pants with white shoes and a rubber band ring on his left hand. The man was lanky and skinny and had shinny blonde hair in an oval shape with half circular bangs. The man's face was twisted into a smug look that practically screamed that he thought he was better than anyone else.
The group of marines stopped in the middle of the street as one marine stepped forward and pulled out a roll of paper and started reading off of it.
"Dear citizens of Shells Town, this is a notice to all citizens. As of this moment, Captain Treslock is no longer the leader of Marine base 153. The reason for this is because the illegal hording of pirate treasure and paying off pirates to attack the city occasionally to keep up appearances as a hard working Marine base"
Naruto was shocked at the atrocities of this decree! There was no way old man Treslock was doing that! Naruto met the man multiple times throughout his stay here. He was even at his wedding! Treslock was a stern man who disliked pirates and upheld the Marine code of honor with integrity! There was no way he would do such a heinous thing such as this!
"Now may I present the new leader of Marine Branch 153! Captain Axe-Hand Morgan!" The tall and imposing man stepped forward. Naruto knew right away that there was something wrong about this man. He gave off an imposing air about himself.
"Greetings citizens of Shells Town! I would like to say that the atrocities of Captain Treslock will be no more! I will now be in charge! Listen to what I say and things such as this will never happen while I'm around!" A cheer rang throughout the town as the people accepted the Marine captain's words. While there were still people who didn't believe that Captain Treslock would do such a thing, Naruto being one of them, it was hard to refute the standings of a Marine Captain so they went along with it. Naruto thought something fishy was going on and decided to figure things out later "Also I would like to make an announcement!" This pulled the blonde out of his musings "I would like to as of now decree of promoting one of my subordinates to Commander!" This increased his growing dislike of this guy already. A Marine Captain doesn't promote someone by himself. He has to send his suggestion to Marine HQ. This was not going to be good "I now pronounce my subordinate Commander Mizuki!" The man in a black garb cloak stepped out in front of the marine soldiers and unfurled his cloak to reveal a man with silver hair that went down to his chin and wore a Marine uniform with a white cloak which signified his rank. The man had a smug look on his face as he stood next to Morgan.
Naruto felt his heart stop at seeing the man. I-I-It couldn't be! HE'S DEAD! I SAW HIM DIE! HOW THE HELL IS HE IN THIS WORLD? Naruto eyes bulged, his jaw dropped and his skin paled a little. He couldn't believe it! How was someone like Mizuki in this world? It made no sense! This was supposed to be a completely different world! D-Did this mean that if he is here then there could be others from his world? Also did Mizuki recognize him? He had to find out! He moved through the line till he was near the front.
"I will let you know now that anyone who tries to help out Treslock will be considered a traitor and executed!" Morgan proclaimed
Now THAT was a completely ridiculous regulation! Helping a prisoner should get you fined and at the most spend a months in prison depending on the charges! Execution was only used when dealing with someone pirates or mass murderers! There was definitely something wrong with this guy.
"Also don't even think about trying to set him free! He is put in stocks in the base prison. The stocks have a sharp blade attached to it so that if anyone tries to physically touch the restraints, the blade will fall and slice his head off!"
Shit! Well that screws over any plan of trying to free Treslock. Naruto couldn't even touch the man without killing him. He had to find a way to unlock the stocks with the key. He figured that the only ones who knew where the key was hidden would most likely be Morgan and Mizuki. And judging by how ruff and tight lipped these guys are, he was not going to get it out of them through torture. B-E-A-FUCKING-UTIFUL!
"That is all citizens!" Morgan shouted as his men moved back towards the Marine base. The people who were cheering for Morgan were now fearing him along with all of the other citizens. Deciding that it was best to find Sakura immediately, he raced over to the hospital.
He found Sakura easily because he happened to catch her on her lunch break. He relayed all that he had heard to her and she was just as floored and disgusted at the events that transpired while she was working. She couldn't believe the horrendous things Morgan was doing! And she knew that Treslock was a kind man! What shocked her the most was when Naruto told her that Morgan's 2nd in command with Mizuki. She couldn't believe someone like him was in this world! It didn't make any sense! They discussed if it was the real Mizuki or someone who looks like him. Naruto says he didn't know but he was pretty sure it was the same Mizuki. Their questions were answered when the man himself walked up to the coffee table they were sitting at in a small café.
"Hello! I'm sorry to bother you two but are you two the Uzumaki's?" Mizuki asked.
They were both shocked at the question. He didn't say anything at all about calling Naruto 'A demon fox' or something along those lines! That meant he wasn't the same Mizuki! It was scary though. The Mizuki of this world was very similar of the Mizuki of their world.
"Y-Yes. Yes, we are" Sakura answered as she slipped her hand into Naruto's.
Mizuki just smiled at them, which creeped them out. They weren't used to Mizuki using anything but a scowl or a twisted look. It was a little disturbing to see the smile "Sorry! I just wanted to meet the new editions of the town. I heard that you two washed up on shore from a pirate attack"
"Y-Yes. That's right" That was the story that everyone in town knew except Yagos, Ririka, Rika and Treslock. They were trusted enough to hear how they truly came to this world.
"It must have been horrible to go through such a thing!" Mizuki tried to play off a cool character but Sakura saw his ulterior motives.
"Yes. Yes it was" her tone was flat and she gripped her husband's hand and showed off her ring to show that she wasn't interested.
"Well sorry for taking up your time and making you relive such tragic memories" Mizuki backed off. He knew that she wasn't interested. It was such a shame. Such a beautiful woman taken by such a stupid looking man. Well her lose.
"It's no problem" she gave an undertone of tell him to leave now.
"Goodbye and I hope you enjoy your day" The Commander left briskly down the street back towards the Marine base.
Through the whole conversation, Naruto felt his blood boil and his anger slowly rising to its peak. Thankfully Sakura noticed and was able to calm him down through squeezing his hand.
Once the man was gone, Naruto let out a sigh of relief and frustration. He looked at his wife to notice a concerned look on her face. He knew she was worried about how angry he was at seeing that guy.
"You okay, dear?" she asked softly.
Naruto smiled at how she said 'dear'. It always made him smile when she said that "Yeah. I was just so angry at how he tried to hit on you and he also reminded me of how he almost tried to kill Iruka-sensei that one time and how he was the one who told me about the Nine-tailed Fox. He always thought I was the fox and it makes me so angry because I can still picture him saying that" His anger was starting to come back again.
"Ssshh. It's okay, Naruto. I'm here for you. I know it hurts being reminded of that time. Just know that I will always be here for you. And I was disgusted when he tried to hit on me! I mean not only was he a slime ball but he also used to be a former instructor of mine! That in itself creeps me out!" Sakura shivered in disgust at the thought of the man leering at her.
Naruto possessively wrapped his arm around his wife "Don't worry Sakura-chan! If he tries anything, I beat him within an inch of his life!"
Sakura smiled at his possessiveness. She really loved how she let everyone know that she belong to him. She also let everyone know that he belong to her and that is how it's always going to be "Don't worry, Naruto. It looked like he gave up trying when he saw I wasn't interested"
This seemed to calm him down. She then turned the conversation back to how Mizuki wasn't the Mizuki from this world. They came to the conclusion that there might be people who look exactly like the people from their world but were different people. They also discussed that they needed to think about how to find the key to the stocks before they think about taking down Morgan and his followers and freeing Treslock. They weren't about to let an innocent man die!
FLASHBACK END
Naruto sighed as he pinched the bridge of his forehead. He really needed to stop thinking about Mizuki. It only got him angry every time he thought about him. For the past three months, they had tried thinking of all kinds of ways to free Treslock but nothing came to mind that wouldn't kill him. Naruto sighed before heading back into his home. They were running out of time. Naruto knew that Morgan wouldn't keep Treslock locked up in prison forever. He was going to execute him soon. They needed a plan now.
Naruto put on his foxy grin as he walked in to find his beautiful wife had just finished putting the food on the table. She smiled at him as he sat at the table. They ate and talked about how each other's days were yesterday. They don't have much time to talk at 2 in the morning so they talk about it the next day. They both had on their civilian clothes. Naruto wore a short sleeved black shirt with orange on the ends (Naruto absolutely refused to wear something that didn't have orange in it unless it was a special occasion), blue jeans and ninja sandals (Naruto and Sakura agreed that even though it might not be fashionable, it definitely helped to always be prepared. Ninja sandals were better for running and fights than sandals or regular shoes). Sakura wore a tan shirt with her sleeveless red zip up vest, black skirt that went down to her knees and ninja sandals.
It was Sakura's day off and luckily Naruto's too. They decided to not have a workout today because they were both sore from the last work out they had. They decided to go walk around town and just enjoy the day. Naruto locked up the house and they were both off. They were both walking down the street when they noticed a commotion of people in front of a small restaurant they knew. Deciding to figure out what's going on, they headed towards the crowd.
Author Notes: So what did you guys think? I know it was pretty long but I just wanted to get this part out of the way and get into meeting Luffy. Also I know a lot of you guys feel like I should have put in a lemon scene in but I think that it is too soon to put one in. I'm going to wait a while and get to a certain point in the story before I put one in. Know this, even though this is rated M, this story will not probably not have a lemon scene every major break in between story arcs. There will be lemon scenes and I will tell you when there is one. Don't worry guys, you will get your lemons just wait till I find decide it is a good point to put one in. Now I have an interesting idea that I want your opinions on. I was thinking about not only writing this story but at some point, I was thinking about making another story that diverged from it. The other story will still be about the same but it will change quite a bit. I thought it would be an interesting idea if I made the other story a harem fanfiction. I think a lot of you guys would enjoy that and it would be interesting to see how Naruto would handle having more than one girl. It was a thought that came to me while I was thinking about how the story would go. Just wanted to let you guys know about this and tell me if this if I should do it. Personally I think it's an interesting idea and would be really enjoyable to write. Again let me know about this and hopefully I'll get the next chapter up soon! See ya!
