"How long do you think it will take for the Uchiha's to attack?" Haruno Sakura asked her godmother while she sat by the pool, taking a tan.
Les' head popped out from under the water as she spit out water from her mouth. "Why don't you go ask your boyfriend? Remember? He was the one who told your idiot god-brother to burn down the supplies." She said before submerging under the water.
"N-n-naruto-kun isn't-he-isn't." Hinata took a deep breath. "He isn't an idiot."
"OH. MY. GOD." Sakura and Les had their mouth hanging open. "YOU DIDN'T STUTTER!"
"Looks like dating that hyperactive blonde finally did you some good." Les laughed as she leaned in from the edge of the Olympic-sized pool.
"Ne, Hinata-chan! You're a lucky girl!" Sakura squealed. She dragged her friend to the edge of the pool so Les could hear. "Has he kissed you yet?"
"Hai." Hinata said as she earned more squeals from her friends. She flushed a deep shade of red in embarrassment.
"Mou, Sasuke-kun hasn't even kissed me yet." Sakura pouted. "It's been a year already."
"Ne, ne, Saki." Les moved her hand as if she were shooing them away. "The Dark Knight can't really show his true emotions, he's more of a man who speaks through his actions."
Sakura frowned. "So if he doesn't kiss me, the-"
"SAKI!" Les splashed a little water when her fists went back into the water. She sunk back in herself to cool down and came back up. "You're missing the point." She sighed. "Uchiha's are told from when they turn twelve years old that emotions show weakness. Even apologizing shows weakness, trust me. Throughout history, the Assarishita's and Uchiha's have had a rivalry, so by now I'd think that my clan knows how they think." She smirked. "If by some chance he gets caught kissing, or even hugging you...he might embarrass his entire family and he'll get kicked out of power and that traitor Orochimaru takes over. Do you want that?" She asked.
"Iya." Sakura sighed. "I just kind of wish things weren't the way they were." She said as she climbed into the pool and submerging into the water.
Hinata grabbed a pool lounger and got into the pool. "Maybe it's best that it is stays that way for now."
"Maybe..." Sakura sighed.

"Are the preparations finished?" Fugaku asked his eldest son as he, Itachi and Sasuke marched through the halls.
"Hai, Tou-san." Itachi said, looking at his younger brother who had his eyebrows furrowed him frustration.
"Anata wa kakushin shite iru? (are you sure?)" He asked for clarification. Who could blame him? They spent an entire year fixing two-month preparations.
"Hai." Itachi almost rolled his eyes at his father's slight insecurities. "We are ready for the attack, the armies have been trained throughly and are fully armed."
"Excellent. We attack in two days." Sasuke's jaw tightened at his father's words. "Have them rest for the battle."
As Sasuke turned to leave his father said, "You're going to lead the first platoon into the Haruno Manor." He nodded, and left.
I have to warn her. He thought. We're going to go see her today you idiot! We can tell her then. I already knew that dumb-ass. You're the one who just called yourself a dumb-ass... Then it's settled. What? Naruto's the dumb-ass. ... works for me...
"They're going to attack in two days." Sasuke said glumly as Sakura sat down in front of him.
"I figured just as much." He looked up at Sakura in surprise. "It's been over a year, Sasuke-kun. I think that by now I'd know if something's wrong." She laughed lightly.
"It's not funny, your people could die." She frowned at his pessimism.
"We're smarter than you think, Sasuke-kun." She grumbled.
"Two strategists and an insane general isn't exactly a comforting thing to know." He muttered.
"Didn't Les-sensei already tell you to stop worrying about me so much?" Sakura said. "I know this is about me, and I'm stronger than you think."
"Hn." He didn't doubt her, hell he would even trust her with his life. But it was inevitable, Uchiha's just always have to feel the urge to protect the ones they...love...hn.
"You shouldn't doubt me." She sighed as she hung her head down in disappointment. Yeah, this conversation definitely isn't going to get her that first kiss. Why don't you kiss him? HELL. NO. He's going to be the one to initiate, not the other way around! Five bucks that he's gonna kiss you after the attack out of guilt. No wagers, but I'll bet that it'll be during the attack. And if someone catches you two? Fuck that, just let him kiss me! Oh, what have I done to your poor virgin mind? ...I hate you.
"I don't...hn."
"Nani?" Sakura was surprised.
"HN." He emphasized. Smooth...SHUT UP! This inner conflict is effecting you brain...heh, what if eventually I take over and you end up finally kissing her? NO! I want to do that! Emo-dark-knight-prince-egoistical-bastard say what? Who the fuck are you? Miley Cyrus or my gay inner? Your girlfriend- WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK I AM? GO. AWAY! fine...*sits in corner*
"Smooth..." Sakura laughed.
"Hn." Sasuke slightly hated how Sakura would practically read his mind like it was an open book. But then again, he could learn to love it...
"Miley Cyrus?" Oh. Crap. Sakura laughed at his reaction. "Mou, I think my inner and your inner are telpathic." She giggled.
YOU CAN TALK TO HER INNER? Yeah, when you shun me I have to talk to someone ya' know. Why don't you ever tell me what she's thinking? Fine, Inner and actual Sakura have a bet that your gonna kiss her either after or during the battle. Sakura has the during, inner's wagering on after. Hn, I'm betting on Sakura. You're gonna kiss her then? ...Maybe... Hn, and you call me gay.
"Hn..." Sasuke hung his head down in shame. It's been over a year and he hasn't even kissed his girlfriend.
"Sasuke-kun?" Sakura was tempted to reach over and hug her sulking boyfriend.
"Please...just...be careful." Sasuke got up and collected his cloak from the ground. He turned around to walk back to the Uchiha Palace. "Ja ne." He waved goodbye from the distance.
Sakura nodded and put her cloak back on her shoulders and went to go tell the only person they could trust.

Haruno side
:¸.•*´¨`*•.¸¸.•* ¨ *•.¸¸.•*´¨ `*• .¸:
"So they're finally ready?" Les asked. She had just returned from her loft that she shared with her sister when she found her goddaughter pacing in her office.
"Hai…" Sakura seemed out of it.
"Did Sasu do something to confuse you, or is this about the kissing thing again?" She asked.
"A little bit of both." Sakura sighed. "He told me to be careful, and then left."
Les smirked. "Then he must really care about you then." Sakura looked up at her. "You forget that his mother was one of my best friends. Fugaku said the same thing three days before the last great battle. We were able to prepare for it in that much time."
"Then what are we going to tell them when they ask how you know this?" Sakura asked worriedly.
"Chill, I'm just going to tell them I saw a vision." Les got up and put on a black and blue cloak. "Do you want me to tell Sasuke to meet you somewhere here? I can make sure no one goes there. I got 360 degrees of full-color vision right here." She tapped the side of her head.
"Would my bedroom be too obvious?" Sakura blushed. She knew exactly what this would lead to.
"No, they wouldn't expect you to actually be in your bedroom. I can arrange for Rozeotome to be in the east wing, and Naoki and Ren can be in the safe house in the South wing." Sakura's bedroom was in the North wing, and the closest to the Uchiha Palace was the West wing. "I'll tell him to meet you there. Tell Hinata to be waiting in her room too, Naru-Naru wants her to be there."
Sakura smiled. Maybe when this war was over, she could meet her god brother and maybe be the one to get rid of Sasuke's fan girls for good. She had so many dreams that involved crossing the border, and marrying the man she loved…
"Go help Naoki with his taijutsu, he'll need to be able to fend off some of the Uchihas armies from Ren." They both went their separate ways.

"You need to meet her in her bedroom." Les told Sasuke and Naruto.
"We need to meet who?" Sasuke asked. She wasn't being specific.
"Sasuke," Les glared at him "you go meet your girlfriend in her bedroom."
"TEME HAS A-!" Sasuke covered his friend's mouth.
"Yes, now shut up!" He let go as soon as he felt that Naruto was going to let the subject drop.
"Who is it?" Naruto asked. Sasuke sighed, he wasn't going to let this go.
"Naru, remember how sometimes I complain how you and Sasuke are the worst godchildren compared to Saki?" Naruto nodded at Les. "Saki is short for Sakura, Haruno Sakura, and she is Sasu's girlfriend."
"Teme!" Naruto whispered. "You're dating the Haruno princess?"
"Hn."
"For over a year now." Les laughed.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!" Naruto boomed.
"That's why." Sasuke rubbed his temples. "It's not like I'm the only one keeping secrets. I know about Hyuuga's cousin." Neji was banned from the Land of Fire when someone had framed his father for treason, but he kept tabs on his cousin because being a Hyuuga was the most important thing to him.
"You know about Hina-chan!" Naruto half-yelled. "How?"
"You two are using the same meeting spot that your parents were using when your mother was still on the Haruno side." Les sighed. "I wasn't surprised to find you two there."
"L-"
"Don't even try to complain." Les showed him her hand. "I'm only letting you date her because she's finally gaining confidence. If you break her heart, I'm locking you in a steel box with an angry Neji."
Naruto started sulking in the corner.
"I've got you and Saki covered, I'm in-charge of the entire north wing so I can keep everyone out." Les said. "Hinata's room is right next to Saki's, all you need to do is run into an illusionary barrier like you're about to attack and you can make your way to them from there." She collected her cloak and exited the room.
"Dobe."
Naruto looked up. "What's up Teme?"
"You ready to see your girlfriend without the borders?" He smirked.
"Heh, at least I've actually kissed mine."
Glare.

Haruno Manor-Day of the Battle
:¸.•*´¨`*•.¸¸.•* ¨ *•.¸¸.•*´¨ `*• .¸:
"THE UCHIHA'S ARE ATTACKING!" Shouted a guard before Uchiha Fugaku stabbed him in the back with his sword.
"Sasuke…" Fugaku stared at his son.
"Hai." He motioned for Naruto to follow him.
His father thought that they were going to look for Assarishita Les in the East wing. But they were going somewhere different.
"Saki!" Les grabbed her arm before some kunai could hit the clone she had made for Sakura. The clone was going to the safe house in the east wing, where Rozeotome and Tsunade were ready to attack the armies. The real Sakura was in her bedroom, waiting for Sasuke.
"Les-sensei." The clone and Sakura were connected, so it could be used like a walkie-talkie.
"Is he there yet?" The clone shook her head. She caught sight of a familiar face. "Kakashi!" He ran to her side.
"Nani?" He asked.
"You need to take Sakura to the East wing, but don't be surprised if she's gone if someone attacks." She instructed.
"Clone?" He asked.
"Don't ask me things in the open!" Les dodged caught and explosive tag and threw it back. "GO!" He took the clone and left.
"Damn it all." Les complained.
"Where are they?" Naruto asked Sasuke.
"The barrier Les was talking about is right here." He responded.
They stopped in front of an illusion of Les prepping to attack them.
"RASENGAN!" Naruto ran into the barrier.
"Idiot." Sasuke pulled his kusanagi out of its holster behind him and ran after him.
Once they got past the barrier, a hand grabbed the ones where they held their weapon and jutsu. Naruto's rasengan disappeared in an instant.
The two looked next to them to find that the person who helf them back poofed away.
"You can't possibly think that I'd be the one to do that." Les smirked in her blue and black pointy battle outfit.
"Where are they?" Sasuke asked.
"Their rooms are across from each other at the end of the hall. Facing the wall, it's Saki on the right and Hina on the left. Now go, I see your platoon ahead." She shoved them in the right direction and they ran.
"KOKORO NO SUISHOU: ASSARISHITA RENDAN!" They heard their godmother yell in the background.
"I'm worried Sakura-san." Hinata said through their radio communications. "What i-"
"Do you trust Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"Hai."
"Then stop worrying." Sakura sighed. "They're going to get here." She said as she put her katana, Yumi – she named her katana like Les did because she liked the idea of naming a sword – onto her back. "Until then, we need to be prepared for someone other than them to barge in, just in case." She stared at the door.
"Sakura-san." She heard her friend say.
"Nani?" She asked.
"Arigatou." Sakura smiled at Hinata and pulled her sword out and held it by her side.
"Ditto" She heard a knocking from two places, the radio, and her own door. "Password?" She asked as she put her hand on the door handle and raised her katana.
"Hn." She laughed, but still stood her guard. "Haruno, Uchiha." She backed away from the door slowly.
"Come in." She watched as Sasuke walked in.
He stepped in cautiously, kusanagi in his hand, just in case someone snuck in without Les knowing. He saw Sakura, in a red Haruno battle kimono with a pink and black sash, a katana in her hand, sending him a death glare that she must have gotten from Les.
"Do you really not trust me?" He smirked.
Her face remained the same, a trait she inherited from her mother. "Prove to me that you're Sasuke." She sent him another death glare, not really surprising the Uchiha.
"In our last meeting you practically read my mind when I was fighting with my inner." He sighed.
"Anyone could've seen that." She stated.
Tell her about the bet! No. Then tell her that Naruto's dating Hinata! How does that help? Only Sakura, Naruto, Hinata, Les and us know about that! Then she'll think I'm the dobe. Then...tell her... that Les is covering for us. ...since we're out of ideas, fine.
"Our godmother is covering for the fact that I'm here." He said.
"No dur." She rolled her eyes.
Her inner says tell her that...what? Okay... her inner says tell her that her inner said she's wearing pink panties... NO. He said no. Okay. Her inner says tell her that her inner said she was going to read Icha-Icha Paradise to her after the battle. Works for me.
"Ask your inner if she was going to read you Icha-Icha Paradise after the battle." He stated.
Did you tell his inner that? Yeah. Were you really going to? Yeah, but I changed my mind since I had to use that to help him convince you that it was him. Please don't mind rape me tonight. Fine...
She lowered her sword. "Sasuke-kun."
He nodded.
"This is incredibly akward isn't it?" She laughed.
Is she PMSing? She's probably just covering for the fact that she couldn't trust me today.
"Hn."
"Sakura? SAKURA!" Hinata yelled into the radio.
"Who's that?" She heard a deep voice.
"It's Hinata." She heard her friend say. "What's up?"
"I'm nervous! What if it's not Naruto-kun?" Hinata was freaking out.
"Well aren't you out of character." Sakura said sarcastically.
"What are you two taking about?" She heard that deep voice again.
"Hinata's worried, she's not too good at keeping up that stoic thing." Sakura sighed. "This is Sasuke-kun."
"Hn."
"She's worried that it's not Naruto."
"It's him." She heard Sasuke grunt.
There was an even louder banging.
"HYUUGA, UZUMAKI. HYUUGA, UZUMAKI!" Came a voice from the otehr side of the door.
"HELP!" Hinata yelled into the mic.
"Do you have a radio to communicate with Naruto?" Sakura asked. Sasuke nodded. "He's scaring Hinata with the yelling and banging," Luckily Les made the barrier sound proof. "Will you tell him to just walk-in, she said the door is open." Sakura sighed.
"Dobe." Sasuke said through his radio.
"TEME!" He saw Sakura wince at Naruto's loudness. "SHE'S NOT OPENING UP!"
"She's freaking out, usuratonkachi." He sighed. "The door's open, just go in and say something that only you know about her."
"Oh." He heard a slapping noise from Naruto doing a face-palm. "Thanks Teme!"
"Thank Sakura." He smirked.
"Sasuke-kun!" She whined.
"ARIGATOU SAKURA-CHAN!" Sakura winced again.
"GOD DAMNIT!" Les swung her katana again, chopping off someone's head. "THAT'S IT!" She stabbed her hand with the blade, and swiftly drew a circle in her blood with a line through the middle and two curved lines to make it look like the stages of the moon. "KOKORO NO SUISHOU: BLOOD MOON ATTACK!" She stabbed the middle and the moon seemed to appear above her head.
The entire LARGE plattoon of men were disentegrated into ash. Les panted, that jutsu exausted her. Pulling out a chakra scroll, she summoned some chakra for the next batch, knowing more were to come. But she was anticipating the person who her raven haired friend had run away with twenty-five years prior.
"Uchiha Fugaku." She looked at him with interest. He'd been wanting to fight her too.
"Hn."
"Hinata-chan!" He ran up to his lavender-eyed girlfriend and pulled her into his warm embrace.
"N-Naruto-kun!" She almost fainted, but she held that back and hugged him.
"I missed you." He murmured.
"Naruto-kun..."
"Hm?" He pulled back to look at her.
"Aishiteru." He smiled.
"I love you too." Finally, he was beating Sasuke at something.
"Sasuke-kun?" He was hugging her. Actually HUGGING HER!
"Sakura..." He held her close to him. He breathed in her sweet cherry scent, and burried his head in her strawberry pink hair.
Sakura held in her tears of joy, thinking that Sasuke might mistake them for tears of saddness. Her efforts failed though, and they fell from her eyes, cascading down her cheeks.
"Why are you crying?" He asked.
"They're tears of joy silly." She laughed.
She has such a pretty laugh. Shut up, you can go flirt with her inner, you're ruining our moment! Fine.
The distance between their faces wasn't that far apart, and Sasuke took that moment to do what he should've done a long time ago.
"You're going to win that bet." He said as he got closer.
"Wha-" He stopped her with his lips.
Sweet. GO AWAY! Leaving.
Even though his inner pissed him off to no extent, he was right. She tasted sweet, like cherries, and tomatoes (A/N: See how much I suck at this?) He was in heaven.
He wasn't the only one.
Damn, you won. MY MOMENT! GO AWAY! Whatevs.
She thought the kiss was flawless, there was no way to describe it. Afterall, she was too caught up in it to even describe it.
She pulled away to breathe.
"Sasuke-kun." She murmured.
The Uchiha couldn't help but smirk.
"KATON: GOKAKYUU NO JUTSU!" yelled Fugaku as a great ball of fire erupted from his mouth.
"SUITON: MIZURAPPA!" a violent wave of water burst out from Les' mouth, extinguishing the fire.
They pulled their katanas out and ran toward each other, their swords clashing.
"I'm not going to kill you." Les said, as their swords met.
"Hn, well, I will." they both jumped back. "Chidori nagashi!" a current of lightning flowed out of his sword and towards Les.
"FUTON: KAMI OROSHI!" A vortex of wind propelled form her hands, trapping the lightning. She shut her hands and the vortex cut off the blade from Fugaku's sword.
"Hn."
"Looks like I'm not going to die." Les smirked. "But then again, you did forget one little thing." She dissappeared and reappeared behind him.
"What?" He saw a portal appear.
Les's smirk grew into a grin. "I'm immortal." She said as she pushed the king through the portal.
"Heh," Les sighed. "I was hoping for more of a fight." She shrugged. "Maybe next time."
"Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked.
"Hn?" Sasuke looked down towards Sakura. She sat in-between his legs, both of them facing her balcony in the shadows, gazing intently at the stars.
"I think this might be comming to an end." She said as she pointed down at the retreating Uchiha patriarch. Sasuke looked glumly at Sakura, and let her go.
"Two weeks." He gathered his things and started for the door.
"Sasuke-kun." He turned back to her. "Aishiteru yo." He smirked.
"Arigatou." He walked out the door.
"I hope they'll be okay." Naruto said as they ran out of the castle.
"Hn." Secretly he was hoping the same thing.
"SAKURA FUBUKI NO JUTSU!" They stopped when they heard a yell. "TAKE THAT YOU BASTARDS!" They saw a large purple cloud erupt from the entrance hall.
"JUHO SOSHIKEN!" Yelled a softer voice.
"I think they'll be okay." Naruto sighed.
"Hn."
As they turned back towards Oto, a huge explosion at the entrance of the hall erupted.
"Hn." Uchiha Fugaku was walking away from the explosion. "That should take care of the Haruno Princess."
Sasuke and Naruto's eyes widened right after the king passed them, before they could go towards the castle, a familar voice poped into their heads.
They're fine. It was Les. The kunoichi had so many powers and jutsu's that amazed people from all over the shinobi world. Hina's back is just a little burned, and Saki's leg might be broken. Don't turn back, it'll endanger them further. I need to make sure that Fugaku thinks Saki is incapacitated.
They nodded at each other and left.
"Kakashi, Can you help me out?" Les lifed Sakura off the ground.
"Hai." He lifted Hinata off the ground, being carefull of Hinata's injuries. "Is Sakura okay?" He asked.
Les smiled. Kakashi was worried about her becasue he had become Sakura's godfather legaly and grown close to her. However, secretly Namikaze Minato was also her godfather. "Yeah, I think she's got to get her leg checked."
They leaped over the rubble and made their way to the infirmary. Les quickly sterilized herself and started to heal Sakura's cuts and bruises.
"S-s-sensei?" Les looked up to see Sakura looking around the room.
"Your leg might be broken." She watched as Sakura's eyes widened. "It's okay, I'll make sure you can get there and back." Les soothed.
"I hate this war." Sakura murmured.
"Don't think that I don't hate it either." Les sighed. This war had separated her from her best friends, and it tore them all apart. Just seeing them didn't do anything anymore.
When they were younger, they had dreamed of growing up and having children. And hopefully, at least Mikoto, Kushina and Haruna's kids would be friends. They dreamed of a world without the war, without the border separating them from the reast of the world. But Kushina and Mikoto fell for the most important men in Oto, and their dreams fell apart. Haruna missed seeing her friends, and Les' word didn't exactly cut it. It was the same for Mikoto and Kushina, and Les knew it.
"I know you have it hard, but I hate the fact that the dreams that your mother, Sasuke's mother, Naruto's mother and I shared couldn't happen. If we had had it our way; you, Naru-naru and Sasu would be friends. They were even hoping that eventually when I had some kids of my own that you three, or at least two of you, would be their godparents." Les sighed as she recalled the past. "If this war didn't exist, well, I'd already seen an alternate future where this ended up. It wasn't the best, but it was better than where we are now."
"What was it like?" Sakura asked.
"I can't tell you." Les frowned.
"Why?"
"Sasuke left and tried to go on a bloody massacre and you and Naruto tried to stop him and get him back in Konoha." Les sighed.
"What?"
"Weird compared to where we are, but I still can't decide which is better." She shrugged. (A/N: lol, buh-bye fourth wall!)
Sakura groaned. "I don't care about that stinking alternate universe anymore. My leg hurts!"
"It's broken." Les frowned.
"Can you heal it?" Sakura asked
"I would if I had enough chakra." Les sighed.
"Chakra scroll?" Sakura pulled on eout of her pocket.
"Save that for later." Les sighed.
"I'm worried about Hinata-chan." Naruto sighed. It wasn't like him to not be all hyper-active and stuff. But this was Hinata, his entire world that he had to keep a secret for a while now, and she was hurt because he wasn't there to protect her.
"Hn." He wasn't really concered about Naruto. His mind was on Sakura. She was hurt, and it was his fathers fault, which meant it was his fault. Sakura was hurt, and it was his fault. "GOD DAMNIT!" He yelled out of nowhere, punching the wall.
"Whoa, teme." Naruto backed away from the pacing Uchiha. "You don't need to damage the room over her."
"It's all my fault." He sat down on his bed, his face in hims palms.
"Sasuke-teme," Naruto sat down next to him. "it's not your fault Sakura-chan got hurt.
"Yes it is!" Sasuke was losing it. Did he really care about Sakura that much?
"No it isn't!" Naruto yelled back at him. "It was your dad's Teme!"
"I should've been there to save her!" He fired back.
"You couldn't have Teme!" Naruto shouted. "Just like I could'nt have been there for Hina-chan! I wish I'd used my dad's flying thundergod technique, but I didn't! There were a lot of things we could've done, things we should've done, but we didn't! Why can't you under stand that? Why do you have to freak out when something bad happens to Sakura, huh?"
"Because I love her!" He shouted, before he could think about it.
"Teme..." Naruto was speechless. He was really in love with this girl? Enough to set aside his pride, if only for a second?
It took a while for Sasuke to realize the mistake he had just made. But it wasn't like it felt like a mistake, since he hadn't regreted saying it at all. But Naruto wasn't the one who had needed to hear it, he was perfectly fine. The one who needed to hear it was, "Sakura..." Sasuke trailed off, and ran his fingers through his raven hair.
"You okay Sasuke?" Naruto became worried as his friends face darkened. The talk didn't exactly work.
"Leave." He commanded, holding his face in his palms.
"Sasuke..."
"Just leave me alone." He growled.
Naruto left his best friend in his room. But he knew just what he needed to do, who he needed to tell. They would be able to get him out of this mess, it was completely of of his hands, and that was saying something.
The only ones who could possibly understand in the entire Land of Sound.
The ones who had probably been in the state Sakura was currently in.
The ones who can help Sasuke cope with this until it was time to end this war.
The only ones who had succeeded in such a thing
"Kaa-san! Uchiha-hime!" Naruto called out to the retreating figures of raven and scarlet.
The long lost friends of Queen Haruno Haruna and Princess Assarishita Les.
"What's wrong Naru-Naru?" His red-headed, hyperactive mother asked.
He turned to the female Uchiha ravenette. "It's about Sasuke, he's not himself right now. I can't do anything about it, he won't let me. But this is a really long story, like about, a year and a half long." He explained. The raven-haired woman nodded.
These people, Naruto knew them his entire life, and so had Sasuke.
These women, they would understand completely.
"Tell me whats wrong." She said worriedly.
The Dutchess and the Queen of Otogakure.
Naruto smiled.
Namikaze Uzumaki Kushina and Uchiha Hoshikuki Mikoto
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
this night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'll spent forever wondering if you knew
this night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
~ "Enchanted" Taylor Swift
A/N: What'd ya think?
Srry...not really good at kissing scenes... so that part kinda sucked.
Do you guys like how Kushina and Mikoto finally get a part as big as Haruna's now? Cuz I couldn't help but put that in.
Mikoto and Kushina are now gonna be included in this secret, but Minato, Hinako, Hiashi (Just wait, he'll be in here eventually); and more importantly; Fugaku and Haruna have yet to know of their children's romances.
