Chapter 7: Day 6: The Grass is Greener

The young looking blond slowly opened her eyes. Her head ached painfully from all the alcohol she had consumed the night before. She slowly sat up in her bed and placed her hand on her forehead, slowly massaging trying to suppress the headache. What happened last night? I remember the park and then…She froze remembering her argument with Jiraiya. She desperately searched the room for him only to find that he wasn't in the room with her.

Tsunade panicked. Did he take what I said seriously? She shook her head. "No. It would take a lot more than that for him to leave me."

Tsunade jumped when she heard the door to the bathroom open. Jiraiya stepped out in a red T-shirt and jeans. She placed her hand to her chest. "J-Jiraiya! You scared me…"

He smiled as he approached her. He placed a bottle of aspirin on the end table next to her, along with a bottle of water, before planting a soft kiss on the top of her head. "Sorry. How are you feeling?"

"Like shit. My head is killing me."

"Take to of those ad you should feel a little better." He said referring to the aspirin bottle.

Tsunade did as he said. She placed the two tablets in her hand and swallowed them down with the water he had placed on the able as well. She sighed.

Jiraiya sat at the edge of her bed staring down at the floor. Tsunade felt awkward having him so close to her after that argument they had the night before. She desperately wanted to say something, but couldn't find the words to say. Sorry wouldn't cut it anymore. It seemed like whenever one of them apologized, their fighting just happened more often and got worst. And yet, it seemed like, Jiraiya never got tired of her.

She averted her eyes to look in his direction. He stood staring at the ground, but it seemed as though he felt her eyes gaze at him and he turned his head to face her. Tsunade quickly moved her eyes to the other side of the room with her face turning slightly red.

Jiraiya reached his hand forward and placed it on the side of her face. "You feel a little warm, why don't you go take a shower and cool off a bit. Then we can go out for lunch."

She stared at him curiously. "Lunch?"

"Look at the time, Hime. You woke up pretty late."

She stretched her arms up and yawned. "Alright, help me up."

Jiraiya grabbed her arm ad helped pull her off the bed. He steadied her by keeping his hand on her waist and around her shoulders. When she was steady, he let her go and she quickly walked into the bathroom.

Tsunade shut the door behind her, letting her hand linger on the door knob for a few seconds before pulling it away. She turned around to start the shower, but something else caught her eye.

A small bag rested on the bathroom counter with a note lying on top of the bag. She picked up the note and read:

Here's a little something to make up for yesterday. What I said was wrong

and I don't want you to hate me anymore. Maybe one day we'll learn

to stop attacking each other like this, but for now, I just don't want to lose

what we already have. I hope this makes up for everything.

Jiraiya

P.S. I wasn't sure what size you were since your boobs are so huge, so I just

used instinct. Hope you like it.

Tsunade raised her eyebrow. "What the hell is the idiot talking about now?"

She placed the note to the side and reached into the bag. She pulled out her stuffed rabbit and stared at it in shock. "H-he…"

The rabbit looked brand new. Even the stains that were almost impossible to remove were gone as if they were nothing. She placed the rabbit to the side, still very shocked that Jiraiya managed to fix up her rabbit so well. She saw that there was still something inside of the bag and reached in to pull it out.

Tsunade pulled out a blue dress that would reach a little above her knees and had a black ribbon around the stomach. She held it against her and admired it from the mirror even though she could only see up to her waist.

Eager to try on the dress, she put it to the side and began to run the water. She quickly undressed herself and hoped into the shower, quickly washing up.

Jiraiya looked up from writing his next novel, when he heard Tsunade come out of the shower. He smiled when he saw her wearing the dress he picked out for her. "A perfect fit. I think I did pretty good picking it out for you. You look good in it."

"Yeah, but why did you get me this and fix my rabbit up. You're making me feel bad now." She hugged her rabbit to her chest and smiled.

Jiraiya got up from the bed and put his writings away. He grabbed the rabbit from Tsunade and put it on the bed before picking up a small bag. "Come on, I'm taking you somewhere."

"Where?" She questioned as he grabbed her arm and dragged her through the door.

"You'll see."

The two Sannin walked outside. Jiraiya let go of Tsunade's arm and strangely enough, Tsunade got upset. Oh no, I am not falling for this baka! This can't happen…

Tsunade tried to keep her thoughts on other things while Jiraiya rambled on about their vacation and where he was taking her. She continued to ignore him until he placed his hand on her shoulder. Tsunade reacted by hitting his hand off of her shoulder.

"Hime, are you ok?"

"I-I'm find. Don't worry. Um, are we almost there?"

He nodded. "Right here."

Tsunade looked around and frowned. "Baka, this is a forest."

"Yes it is."

"And why are we in a forest?"

"This is where we're having lunch."

She raised her eyebrow. "I'm not a deer, Jiraiya. I don't want to eat grass."

He chuckled. "You, silly girl." He pushed her to the center of the clearing in the forest. She stared out into the lake and then turned to face Jiraiya. He was sitting on the grass and patted the ground next to him, signaling her to sit down next to him.

He pulled out two lunches for the both of them from the bag he brought with him. Jiraiya handed Tsunade one of the lunches. "Eat up, Hime."

She smiled. "Thank you." Before taking a bite, she stared at Jiraiya as he ate his food. "Baka-kun"

"Hmm?"

"I…well…this has to be the most interesting vacation that I've ever had."

He nodded and swallowed a piece of food he was chewing on. "Yeah, but it was fun, if you skip the parts with you wanting to kill me."

Tsunade began eating and smiled. "You know, maybe it wasn't so bad, even with the fighting. I mean-"

She paused when he moved closer to her. He pressed his forehead against hers. "Shut up and eat."

Tsunade tried her hardest to keep the blood from rushing to her cheeks, but Jiraiya saw through her. Could it be that he knew that Tsunade's feelings for him were finally turning the direction that he wanted them to go in?

Tsunade pulled away and began eating very fast causing Jiraiya to chuckle more. "Hime, you sure your alright?"

She nodded fast and continued to shove the food in her mouth until it was completely gone. Jiraiya smiled. "Seems like you enjoyed it"

"Yes." She quickly responded. Jiraiya smirked seeing this as a perfect opportunity to toy with her.

He moved closer to her until they're shoulders were touching only to be pushed away by Tsunade. "What are you doing?"

"Nothing"

Tsunade frowned. She looked out at the lake again and smiled. I think it's time to end this…She looked Jiraiya, who was finishing up the last of his food. "Baka-kun…"

"Yeah"

"Do you know the real reason we always fight?"

"Because you go through really bad mood swings cause of your menopause."

"What?! No! You idiot…"

He chuckled. "Why then?"

She hung her head down and smiled. "Because no matter how much I try to resist falling for you, it just seems like it can't happen."

Jiraiya froze. Where was this coming from all of a sudden? "Tsunade-chan…"

"For all of these years, the only think that kept us from being together was my fear of losing the last person who cares about me."

Jiraiya placed his hand on the side of her face. "That's not true. You still have quite a few people that care about you. Naruto, Shizune, Sakura, and the whole village."

"Yeah, but how many of them know the real me? You're the only person who sees me as something more than just the Hokage." Tsunade rested her head onto his shoulder and smiled. "I don't want to argue anymore, so I think it's about time I gave in."

Jiraiya smiled and wrapped his arm around Tsunade's waist. "I'm glad and I promise you won't regret it, but first…" He pushed her to make her lay down in the grass and then he hovered over her. "…I need you to answer one question."

"And what's that?"

"Can I use you as a character in my next book?"

Her eyes widened. "Absolutely not! I can't have everyone thinking I'm some kind of slut."

"What if I don't use your name?"

"No"

"Damn it. Fine then you'll have to repay me back some other way."

Tsunade wrapped her arms around his neck. "Repay you for what?"

"This trip"

Tsunade shook her head. "You said that this is my birthday present. I shouldn't have to repay you for anything."

"True and I guess just having you here like this is good enough as repayment." He pinned her down and pressed his lips against hers, making sure that she wasn't able to hit him just in case she decided to change her mind. Much to his surprise, she didn't fight him. Instead, she kissed him back, pulling him closer to her, until their bodies were touching.

Jiraiya was the first to break the kiss and laid down beside her. Tsunade took this opportunity to rest her head on top of his chest and cuddle a little closer to him. Jiraiya wrapped his arm around her and smiled with his eyes closed. "I don' know what made you change your mind like this, but I like it."

Tsunade smiled and pressed her lips to his neck. "Let's just say I think too much about certain things."

"Well maybe you should think more often." He kissed the top of her head and then looked out at the lake. He ran his hand up and down her back until he felt her shift her weight. He looked down at her. Her eyes were closed as she gripped his t-shirt in her hand. "How's your headache?"

"Better. I've had worst."

Jiraiya reached his hand for one of her two ponytails and untied it. Then he untied the other one, leaving Tsunade confused to why he was undoing her hair instead of her clothes. "Baka-kun, what are you doing?"

"You look prettier with your hair loose." He placed the hair ties into his pocket and wrapped both his arms around her as they laid in the grass.

She giggled and rolled onto his stomach, playfully twirling his hair around her right finger. "Let's head back."

"Why? It's kind of early to be going back already. Are you that bored?"

She leaned in closer to his ear and whispered "No. I can just think of something that will keep us busy for the rest of the day."

Jiraiya smirked and held her hand in his. "Ah, now, now, Hime. That's not very ladylike. Besides it's usually me who makes suggestions like that."

Tsunade frowned and rolled off of him. "Fine, then I guess, we'll just lay here for the rest of the day."

She put her arms behind her head and smirked as she closed her eyes waiting for Jiraiya to reconsider his answer.

It stood silent for a few minutes, before Jiraiya grabbed Tsunade by the arm and pulled her up from the grass. "You win this time, Tsunade-chan."

She giggled as they practically ran back to their hotel room. "What are you talking about? I win all the time."

"Psft. Keep saying that until I get you to sit down and play a little game of strip poker with me."

"Ah, touché, Baka-kun. However, the chances of me being stupid enough to do that is one to a million."
