Peaches and cream

(Naruto's Point of View)

Naruto woke up to the sounds of birds singing outside the window. His head slowly turned to see what the commotion was about. Naruto heart began to race as he felt something hold him down a weight. He looked down instantly and smiled as he saw Ino resting her head on his chest. Naruto smiled the biggest smile he had ever had. Ino felt Naruto heart race and looked up having woken up just then. "Naruto?" Ino mumbled as she rubbed her eyes. Naruto moved a strand of hair across her face. "I didn't think I would ever wake up with an angel in my bed". Naruto pulled Ino into a kiss before she could say anything. "I was just wanted to feel your lips before I woke up from my dream". Naruto said it as Ino eyes looked confused. Ino kissed Naruto as she pulled the cover over them. "I think we should make sure that wasn't a fluke last night". Ino said seductively as she embraced Naruto.

(Rock lee's Point of View)

Rock lee woke up just before dawn before the first light. As he got up he felt Tenten's arm around his waist. Rock lee smiled remembering the night before even with it being the morning after he couldn't help but grin. Rock lee began his morning exercises he routinely did wanting to spend the morning with Tenten, he didn't want to wake her so he let her sleep while he did his routine. Tenten woke up to the smell of blueberry pancakes, she slipped into her nightie and went to investigate. Rock lee wrapped his arms around her waist surprising Tenten. "For the most beautiful woman in the world, I know they are your favorite". Rock lee said as he kissed her neck slowly descending it with small nibbles/kisses. Tenten smiled as she turned kissing her boyfriend slowly savoring his kiss as much as she could. "I don't know how you do it but I can't help but want to devour you with kisses" Tenten murmured. Rock lee lifted Tenten and moved her towards the couches of her apartment. "I Just wanted to thank you for yesterday". Rock lee said in between fiery kisses they shared on her couch.

(Shikamaru's Point of View)

Shikamaru woke up to the most beautiful sight in the world, he couldn't help but realize it. Temari was fixing her hair as she got up her perfect form laid bare before his eyes, she hadn't dressed yet. "Shikamaru" Temari finally said as she noticed him. Shikamaru set his hands on her waist and pulled her into a kiss. In between kisses Temari tried to ask something but Shikamaru hands slowly numbed her mind. Shikamaru hands gently glided across her body as he mouths worked her neck. Temari bit back a moan but she knew the battle was lost. Finally, she was able to bring a sentence together as Shikamaru moved them to the center of the bed. "I always knew you loved to stay and bed rather than go out and do things but…" Temari said as Shikamaru ravaged her body. "I don't think there's a man in the world who would rather go out there than stay here with you". Shikamaru kissed her hand and looked into her eyes as he said it. "My golden haired goddess".

(Naruto's Point of View)

It was Noon before Naruto left Ino's bedroom. "Does our Hokage have to be at the office today". Ino made a cute face trying to dissuade Naruto. Naruto grinned. "I think I can spare a day, how about we spend it together". Naruto replied. Ino pulled out some ice cream from her freezer. "If your thirsty I have some beer and soda in the fridge". Ino pointed to her fridge as she moved her ice cream to the counter. Naruto pulled out a case of fresh peaches she had in her fridge. "I think I found what would best complement our desert". Naruto said. Ino eyes lit up seeing the peaches. "Good idea, we should marathon some movies since outside we might get caught by your staff". Ino chimed. Naruto nodded in agreement. "I always liked watching movies on my day off, and having desert will only make it better, the peaches and ice cream are nice too". Naruto said with a grin. Ino placed a Spoon in her mouth playfully pointing to herself when he said desert. "Perfect". Naruto smiled as he lifted Ino and carried her over to the couch.

(Rock lee's point of View)

Tenten and Rock lee stood at the fields outside the main city. Rock lee placed the mat down for their picnic. "I remember this place" Tenten commented as she looked around. "It was the place we had that mission to guard the cat lady and it was also where we had our first date". Tenten smiled as she remembered it. "Do you remember when you tackled me to get the red ribbon you didn't want me seeing?" Rock lee grinned. Tenten blushed. "It was the first time I tried to sow something, it was embarrassing". Tenten pouted. "It was perfect, your perfect you know everything you do always comes out good". Rock lee pointed out as he handed Tenten a bowl of Strawberries and cream. "You know I never saw us happening". Tenten admitted. Rock wrapped his arms around her waist. "That's good, now that were together it will always be new, unpredictable and unexpected". Rock lee replied. Tenten smiled. "You always were unpredictable". Rock lee grinned. "Life isn't fun if its predictable or routine it's all about enjoying the unexpected!" Rock lee voice was filled with excitement.

(Shikamaru's Point of View)

Shikamaru and Temari walked around the main shopping district of Konoha holding hands. Shikamaru neutral face he always carried seemed alive and happy for once and everyone who saw him couldn't help but think it. "Have you ever thought of us?" Temari asked as she stared at a stuffed bear in a window of a shop they had stopped at. Shikamaru noticed the bear now as he turned to answer her question. "I remember our fight in the Chunin exams, it was the first time we truly met after I won I remember thinking about dating someone like you". Shikamaru admitted. Temari followed Shikamaru into the store. "You thought about me after our fight, why?" Temari was truly curious, it had taken her several battles and missions to figure it out. "You were a strategist, strong, and skilled". Shikamaru commented as he bought the bear they had been seeing. "You wanted to be with me because I was a skilled Kunoichi (Female ninja)". Temari raised an eyebrow. Shikamaru handed Temari the stuffed bear and as she grabbed it he held her hands. "You were beautiful, smart, and we had the same fighting style I knew right away I wanted someone like that in my life". Shikamaru locked eyes with her and he slowly released his hands from her. "Sometimes you just know when you see the perfect person" Shikamaru commented as they walked. Temari hugged Shikamaru arm as they walked.

Naruto finally opened the door to the Hokage tower. He found Karui waiting for him there. "I was afraid the earth split apart and the earth had swallowed you whole". Karui said with a look of frustration. Naruto looked at her sheepishly. "I was busy". Naruto admitted. "Well you could have called, when you were gone the other Kages reached a unanimous vote". Karui watched Naruto face change from a happy on to one of panic and confusion mixed into one. "What did they vote on?" Naruto asked curiously. "Excluding you and Gaara they voted on Sasuke's Nations validity". Karui replied. Karui handed Naruto a scroll with the details. "This morning they ordered the disbandment with the warning refusal would be seen as a declaration of war against the major nations". Karui voice was high clearly stressed. Naruto face turned grim.

"I doubt Gaara would uphold their threat and I certainly won't hold them to it". Naruto said sternly. "They will be having a meeting in the land of Iron you are welcomed but it's clear they doubt you will be there". Karui replied. "Bring me a scroll to write my orders on". Karui nodded. Karui handed him a scroll and a pen with ink so he could write. "I order Kakashi Hatake to act as Hokage until I return from the land of Iron, I will need an escort team post it to all Jonin and Chunin who are willing to go". Naruto studied Karui facial expression seeing her fear. "Who wouldn't want to escort you you're the Hokage". Karui asked. Naruto turned away from her. "I won't force anyone to go on a mission like this, most likely it will be the ideal time for the other Kage to silence a voice of opposition in this controversial subject".
