CHAP 21

Sakura cleaned up the dishes before grabbing a shower in preparation for bed. Walking into the Hokage's room, a tremor ran through her legs. Naruto was flat on his back, snoring loudly. The familiar sight prompted Sakura to admire her lover.

Growing up has definitely been generous to him, she thought to herself. Once-rounded cheeks had been replaced with a strong jaw and open face. Sakura focused on his lips for a moment, feeling a twinge of a blush as the desire to kiss him threatened to cloud her judgment. Shaking her head to clear it, the pinkette climbed into bed beside Naruto.

An arm ensnared Sakura even as the sheets fell over her. The moment of panic passed as green eyes flicked across the Hokage's face to find it still sleeping. A second wave of desire washed over the pinkette, but in the end it was the day's exhaustion that won out. Content in the presence offered, Sakura drifted off to sleep.

Daylight peaked through the curtains as consciousness returned to Sakura. Green eyes fluttered open to find that Naruto had pulled himself against her through the night. His skin was tantalizing close to her and his warmth so enticing. It was so comfy, having like that around her his strong arms, feeling loved and secure was a wonderful sensation. Talking about sensing something, there was another part of him, she was clearly sensing. He was as hard as wood. She wanted to try to touch him like the day before, she wanted to see him all sensitive at her touch. Warmth pooled in her lower belly. Tentatively, her hand approached the waistband of his pajama, tracing the material with a finger. A moment's concern crossed her mind. I hope he doesn't think me too wanton.

She snapped at attention when he stirred in his sleep. Eyelids still closed, his lips searched blindly for her forehead and he did the cutest thing ever to her. He kissed her forehead softly.

"Good morning Sakura-chan," he mumbled sleepily, as his hands caressed afterward her back. "I want to wake up with you everyday!" Naruto declared with a smile tightening his embrace to bring her more toward him. Her body molded against his firm torso and his hard virility pressed her full of pleasurable promise.

Now that he was awake, her hand caressed the skin of his chest, sliding slowly on his stomach. He pulled her up to be able to kiss her ravenously. He began first, she thought happily as if she had been waiting for his signal to be more bold. Her hand reached the bulge in his pants and tentatively enclosed it through the material. He released abruptly her mouth to gasp at her ministration, his eyes locked on her with some wildness in them.

"I want you!" Naruto stated and as to prove his lust in his act, he removed her panties in a swift motion while kissing her with fervor. His hand began prodding her, she was already so wet that he grew even more excited.

"Do you want me, Sakura?" Naruto asked sultrily, pumping his finger in and out and rubbing her clit with his thumb.

She wanted him. She damn wanted him. But instead of answering verbally, she just pulled his pajama with his underwear down. His cock stood up proudly freed from the confinement and twitched from arousal. He pulled his finger out of her wet cavern and she nearly wanted to complain. But he pressed their body together more tightly making their sex brush against each other. The warm liquid oozing from her and the sensation of her sex rubbing his cock made it hard for him to restrain his desire. He lifted her thigh and propped it against his hips to have a better access to her core. His hand went back to their junctures and positioned the tip of his large member to her entrance. Lust engulfed them as he pressed again his body to her in a sway of hips. He penetrated her with no resistance as she was as eager as him to consummate their union. They were moaning in each other mouth moving their body with passion.

"Sakura..." he grunted in between thrusts. "You drive me crazy!"

She hold for dear life his shoulder as he was pounding hard into her and she wondered how he could dare to say such a thing, when she was unable to even form a single word, just able to moan and pant. It was unbearable. His hands were everywhere, his lips, his tongue, his teeth were tasting each centimeter of her skin and his generous proof of virility was rubbing her inner wall and hammering the perfect spot in her core sending shot of pleasure through her vein. He was her drug and she felt ravaged. "Sakura...Sakura..." He was going faster and harder. She was melting, she was lost, all of her lost to be only his. "Hnnnnnn" He came hard, his body still jerking from the release.

He fell back on her, all his force left, he used his elbow for support to not crush her. He was breathless, his heart trying to escape through his mouth.

"Sorry!" Naruto muttered.

"For what," she asked between puff of air.

The blond inhaled a little more deeply to catch his breath. "I couldn't hold it anymore. I was too excited," he apologized and she laughed a little.

"It's good...I couldn't handle more." Sakura joked.

He kissed tenderly her forehead and rolled on the side to recover from the afterglow. She moved to rest her head on his shoulder. "Sakura..."

She caressed absentmindedly his chest with her finger. His hand came to push behind her ear a lock that was astray on her cheek. "Come and live with me!"

Sakura stopped her movement and lifted her head to drown in the sea of his eyes. "Naruto..."

He laughed and kissed her nose. "I know, you want to take things slowly and you don't want people to know for us now...but if I can't see you outside, you have at least to promise me that you will visit me sometime...to be honest...I will want you here everyday."

She kissed him softly. "I promise, I will come".

They stayed in each other arms a little while longer and he looked at the clock. "If the situation wasn't so complicated at work, I would have faked to be still sick to stay longer with you," Naruto announced, giving her another hug.

Sakura looked at him with a hint of hope in green eyes. "Does that mean you recovered access to your chakra?"

He smiled mischievously and opened wide his arms. "You can check doctor, I am all yours!" Naruto offered letting his body at full display.

She sat up immediately and activated her medical chakra to make a diagnosis; all the connection worked, the system responded. She nodded happily to have him back to health. Her smile faltered realizing the implication. He would go...

"You know, you could stay to rest one day or two to build up your chakra reserve. You are still convalescing and …"

He had lifted himself to kiss her and make her stop her rambling. "You know me Sakura-chan..." he murmured his forehead against hers and his eyes closed.

She knew, but it didn't mean that she approved. The warm feeling of his skin on her disappeared and she opened her eyes to see him stand up.

"Naruto! Don't be too reckless!" Sakura pleaded.

A hand on the hips, a seductive smirk on the lips, he teased. "For now, I am just going to the shower."

Her eyes instinctively roamed over his naked body. This man has no modesty...well...he don't have anything to be ashamed of.

His eyes smiled catching hers. "Want to join?" Naruto offered half jokingly knowing her answer. He laughed at her offended face and walked to the bathroom hearing her calling him a pervert. She followed his leaving figure with a discreet gaze. He really does have a nice body.

She found Naruto in his kitchen after her shower, he was waiting for the toast to finish to grill. Two mug of fresh coffee were already placed on a tray with a selection of fruits. He smiled at her, placing the slice of bread on a plate.

"Breakfast is ready!" Naruto announced, bringing the tray of food with him to the dining table. There was nothing fancy, but Sakura still felt touched to have him prepare breakfast for her. We've shared a meal lots of times on missions, but this is our first as a couple, she thought with a moment of giddiness.

After the breakfast, he quickly dropped the dishes in the sink telling her that his house-keeper, would take care of it and he went to retrieve his Hokage robe on the chair. They left together his house walking side by side and Naruto took a little detour to accompany her longer on the way to his office as she went to her house to get a fresh set of clothes. As usual, Naruto got greeted by all the passerby and many villagers came out of their house or their shop to salute him. Naruto was really well loved by everyone and a little too much loved by other noisy people to her point of view.

Sakura had seen him grow in popularity when he was candidate to be Hokage, but they didn't get the chance to really hang out together since then. But now, it was nearly insane how many girls were drooling in front of him. She could understand. He was handsome, young, powerful, the hero, Hokage and single...the last part was no more in the list, but nobody seemed to note her presence by his side. It was simply normal. Naruto was walking with his teammate, everybody knowing them since they were kids and for the younger girls, the Hokage was walking with the head medic. It was irritating. How come that he was still so clueless, that those girls wanted to attract his attention. It was so irritating that he was just blatantly nice to everyone. She took his hand and pulled him out of the group of girls. "Let's go! We will be late!"

She didn't let go of his hand even after he was freed from his admirers and continued to pull him along her as she was walking briskly. Her fiancé was too coveted and she began to think that marrying him as fast as possible wasn't such a bad idea finally. He caught up with her and happily intertwined his finger with hers. She didn't know if she wanted to slap him to be so dense in front of those girls or to strangle him to be so cute, so she just feigned to ignore him. Few street after, they had to part way. They released their hands and he felt disappointed, alone, even if she was just in front of him. Naruto passed his now lonely fingers through his hair.

"So...when will I see you again?" the blond asked unsure.

She glanced timidly up to meet his blue gaze. "Aren't you passing tonight to visit my parents?" she inquired shyly.

He beamed. "At what time should I come?"

Sakura thought few seconds trying to plan her day of work. "What about 7pm?"

He nodded. Naruto wanted so much to hug her, but he had to restrain himself. So, he took a step back and waved her goodbye. She stayed immobile looking at his leaving figure.

Naruto entered the Hokage Tower and went straight to his office. He opened the door and the expression on his face morphed into a frown seeing his double at his place. Shikamaru did continue his masquerade.

"Konohamaru stop that now!" Naruto ordered flatly. The teen flinched at his tone, it was rare for Naruto to scold him. Konohamaru changed back in his normal form and move fast out of Naruto seat. The Hokage advanced with a determined step, his eyes boring holes in Shikamaru.

"I am back in command! I need a complete report of the situation, emergency, meeting and all!" Naruto instructed walking past his desk to take back his seat. Shikamaru sighed, there way no meaning to discuss with the blond. He informed him of his planning and all the important matter.

"So have you sign the documents I had delivered yesterday?" Shikamaru asked with an air of resignation.

All his act of strong imperturbable Hokage crumbled. The blond smiled embarrassed."I forgot them at home..." Naruto turned to Konohamaru and pulled out of his pocket his key. "Can you bring them please? They are on the table in the living room."

Konohamaru took the key and turned to Shikamaru holding his hand. The strategist pulled out of his pocket a ribbon with a seal at the bottom.

The motion got the interest of the Hokage. "What's that?"

"A pass...some security have been established around your house. Nobody can enter without it."

He lifted his blond eyebrow. "My house is monitored?" Naurto repeated with a raised eyebrow.

Shikamaru held on his glare. "You were unconscious with a killer targeting you."

Naruto crossed his arms in front of his chest. "I am awake now and we will take care of this assassin problem, you can call back the ANBU guard."

Sakura had directly start a visit of the different services as soon as she entered the hospital. Better to see for herself the situation first. She passed the nurse office and inspected the report. Many nurses regrouped around her and she wondered worry in their eyes, reminded her of the fright that all of them have lived that day. The medical secret had been kept, but none of them have forgotten of the event.

"The Hokage is safe and back in health." Sakura assured them with a smile. A wave of relief passed over the collected nurses as the head medic before moved off to continue her visit.

She passed to the next floor and crossed paths with Hikaru. Since their break-up the man rarely talked to her, going to the point to avoid even eyes contact with her usually. But today, he stopped in the middle of the corridor looking at her making her way to the next office department. She felt awkward and lowered her gaze to greet him politely. She wasn't in bad term with him, she was just uncomfortable to have break his heart selfishly to try to save hers.

"He's safe, if you are here...you would never have left his side otherwise," he pointed. There was some jealousy involved for sure in his comment, a sour venom that was spilling in his guts. He had witnessed everything that day, her fear, her despair, her devotion... he had known why she had beento such extend to move all rules of life and death for him. And he was jealous.

Sakura tried to hide behind some professionalism. "The Hokage is safe," she confirmed and he snorted passing her. It was sad, it was selfish, but he had wished that she would fail.
