Last Time:
"You really expect me to do what you say?" Orochimaru asked as he stood to his face and met Urashiki on his level. "You seem to be forgetting who I am."
"And you seem to forget who I am." Urashiki's smile faded. "If it was up to me, I would've buried a bullet in your brain a long time ago and taken what was left of that shitty organization you call a yakuza. The only reason you're alive and allowed to have a voice in this arrangement is because Lady Kaguya. So, if you want this fucking partnership to work, I recommend you start making a goddamn effort because we don't need you alive."
Orochimaru sucked his teeth.
"We've already made arrangements for you, but you'd need to be packed and out of here in the next ten minutes," Toneri informed him. "So, are you going to leave or stay?"
Orochimaru snapped his book shut. "We'll leave."
Opposites Attract: Chapter 47 – "Spring Vacation" (Part 4 of 4)
That next morning, Naruto called Minato and informed him of Sasuke's run in with Orochimaru. After a brief discussion of what happened and Sasuke's mental state, Naruto informed Minato that he'd be meeting with Gaara later that morning to discuss the details of how Orochimaru managed to get into Suna City and that close to Sasuke. Once Minato hung up, Naruto called Itachi and informed him of the previous night's misfortune.
"Is he okay?" Itachi asked, more alert than he had been a moment again.
"I haven't been by to check on him yet this morning, but he seemed stable when I left him with Sakura-chan last night," Naruto informed him as he rubbed his face. "I want to send Sasuke home as soon as possible but I won't be able to leave until later this afternoon if not late evening. And I'm not sure if he'd be okay with flying alone with Sakura-chan."
"I'll come get him," Itachi said.
Naruto shook his head. "You don't have to do that."
"Yes, I do," Itachi argued calmly. "You have other things to worry about and I don't want you skimming over things and missing something because you're rushing. I'll charter one of the jets and I'll be there in a few hours. Let Sasuke know I'm coming to get him."
Naruto sighed and nodded. "Yeah. I'll do that. Thank you, Itachi."
"You're welcome. Oh, and Naruto? If you find Orochimaru, don't kill him. I still need to make him pay for what he did to Sasuke," Itachi muttered.
"Yeah," Naruto breathed. "I'll hold him for you."
"Thank you." Itachi hung up.
Naruto hung up and tossed his phone back onto the nightstand. He ran his fingers through his hair and let out a frustrated groan. He pulled at a few strands and looked at them. "I should cut my hair."
"Naruto-kun?" Hinata was half-awake and still very much curled up in the sheets of their bed.
Naruto looked over his shoulder at her and smiled at the sight of her. Her hair was a mess on her pillow, but she was still stunning in his eyes. He leaned down and gently kissed her forehead. "Sorry. Did I wake you?"
Hinata shook her head as she rubbed her eyes. "No." She yawned loudly as she sat up and then stretched. She peered at the alarm clock on Naruto's side of the bed. "It's not even ten."
"I have a breakfast meeting with Gaara at eleven and I still need to go check on Sasuke before then," Naruto informed her. He got up off their bed and removed the shirt he'd slept in. He was almost in the closet when he stopped and looked at her. "Did you want to come with me?"
"To check on Sasuke?" Hinata asked.
"That and to my meeting with Gaara."
Hinata blinked a few times. "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. You don't have to if you don't want to, but I figured I would ask." Naruto wandered into the closet and began shifting through the drawers. "I'm hoping that Gaara's people were able to find some information on how Orochimaru got into the city."
"I'll come," Hinata announced.
Naruto wore a bit of a smile in response. "Good."
Together, the brushed their teeth, washed their faces, and got dressed for the day. They immediately went to Sasuke and Sakura's room and Naruto had to use his master key to enter because after they knocked, he received a text from Sakura telling him to let himself in. As they entered, Naruto could hear gentle humming.
When they rounded the corner and entered the bedroom, they saw Sasuke was curled up on the mattress with his arms wrapped around Sakura's waist and his head in her lap. She had her fingers in his hair and gently scratched his head as she hummed. Naruto carefully approached the bed and sat on the side Sasuke was facing.
"Naruto?" Sasuke sounded weak.
"Hey," Naruto spoke quietly. "Did you sleep?"
Sasuke shook his head.
"He tried," Sakura informed Naruto. "He couldn't sleep any longer than about thirty minutes."
Naruto pursed his lips together before letting out a heavy sigh. He reached over and rubbed Sasuke's head affectionately. "It'll be okay. You're going to go home today, all right? Itachi is on his way here to come get you."
"Okay." Sasuke didn't argue.
"Do you think you can eat something?" Naruto asked and Sasuke shook his head. "I need you to try and eat something before you leave, all right? At least some rice. I'll go into the kitchen and see if I can get some tomatoes for you."
"I'm not hungry," Sasuke muttered.
"Just try and eat. For me?" Naruto asked.
Sasuke looked at Naruto for a moment before averting his eyes. Naruto wore a tiny smile. He rubbed Sasuke's head again before kissing Sakura's forehead and getting off the bed.
"Keep me updated on how he is, okay?" Naruto asked of Sakura.
Sakura nodded. "I will."
Hinata wasn't sure what to do. She'd known Sasuke all her life and she'd never seen him in such a fragile state. When they were kids, Sasuke cried and laughed like any other child but he'd never been broken. She always saw him being strong and often thought of him as a pillar but now that wasn't the case. He was a crumbled mess.
"Sasuke," Hinata spoke softly as she approached him. Carefully, she placed a gentle hand on his back before leaning down and kissing his head. "We'll come check on you again later."
Sasuke simply nodded. Hinata shared a look with Sakura and saw the exhausted expression on her face mixed with sadness and frustration. Hinata squeezed her hand before leaving the room with Naruto. Hinata caught the door so it didn't slam and once it was shut, she looked at Naruto.
"Sakura didn't know about what happened with Sasuke until last night, right?" Hinata asked.
Naruto nodded. "Unfortunately. Like I said, Sasuke started talking again once Sakura came and joined our family. He helped her cope with what happened with her and in a way, she did the same for him even though she didn't realize it."
"How did she react?"
Naruto began to walk down the hall and Hinata walked at his side. "She was furious which was to be expected. But once she saw how damaged Sasuke was, she immediately started doing everything she could to comfort him. Sometimes though, there isn't anything that can be done until Sasuke's ready to keep going."
"Has this happened before?"
"Three times before," Naruto answered. "Once was shortly after he started talking and he thought he saw Orochimaru while out in public. I believe he was about eight or nine by then. Then again when he was thirteen, same incident. And then not too long ago after the stuff with Baji. Apparently Orochimaru had been at the scene of the accident and spoke to Sasuke while he was half-conscious. This makes number four."
"I never noticed." Hinata rubbed her arm.
"Don't feel bad," Naruto insisted. "Sasuke's not the type to express himself like that, especially when he's struggling with something or he's hurt. This is the strongest he's reacted. I guess you can attribute it to the fact that Sasuke was fully aware of Orochimaru's presence and it didn't turn out to be a figment of his imagination. I'm sure he would've preferred that."
Hinata nodded in agreement. Together, they made their way down to the lounge area where the hotel served breakfast. Gaara had already reserved a decently sized table and was joined by Matsuri and Shikamaru. When they saw Hinata with him, they all exchanged a look before standing as they approached the table.
"Good morning," Naruto greeted them as he shook Gaara's hand before pulling out Hinata's chair.
"Good morning," Gaara responded before sitting down with everyone. "I didn't realize you were bringing Hinata with you."
"It was a last-minute decision," Naruto informed the table. He handed Hinata his menu and waved down a waitress who immediately came over. "Coffee for me and green tea for her. Thank you."
She smiled and nodded before walking away.
"Did you manage to find anything?" Naruto asked.
"Ah, yes," Matsuri picked up her tablet and handed it over to Naruto.
"It turns out he came in off the water," Shikamaru began to explain. "He must've chartered a biplane and landed out in the middle before getting on a boat and taking that to the shoreline. Hotel cameras spotted him around four in the morning, the night after we got here."
Naruto looked at the stills from the security footage and saw Orochimaru with Kabuto and several other lesser known members of Phoenix. "Doesn't look like he had any of his generals with him. So, I guess that's a good sign but why would he run the risk of coming to Suna City?"
"It could be possible that he came because he wanted to meet with Shirogane Ibushi," Matsuri informed as Naruto swiped to the next set of pictures. "He's head of the Shirogane Family. They have roots here, but they don't run as deep as the Sabaku Family."
"Nonetheless, they've been a thorn in my family's side since their formation as a crime family," Gaara commented. They run the Black Market around here," Gaara stated. "Nowadays we avoid each other at all cost but when our people run into each other, it usually ends in some kind of physical altercation."
Naruto's coffee and Hinata's green tea arrived at the table. The waitress took down each of their breakfast orders before walking away again. Naruto handed Matsuri back her tablet before taking a sip of his plain coffee.
"Would there be anything Orochimaru would be looking to buy from Ibushi?" Hinata questioned as she dunked her tea.
"Possibly weapons," Shikamaru answered. "Phoenix burned bridges with the Lightning Yakuza years ago, so they aren't able to purchase anything from them. So, it's not unlikely for them to go through third parties and get their weapons."
"If that's the case, is it possible that they're planning an assault against Whirlwind and the other yakuzas?" Hinata asked.
"Not likely," Matsuri answered before taking a sip of her tea. "Phoenix doesn't have the manpower. And they'd be idiots to try and attack Whirlwind a second time, especially after everything that happened with Watanabe Baji. Plus, I'm sure after all that happened with The Eternal Flame, Whirlwind has definitely solidified their presence in one hundred percent of Konoha City."
"We have," Naruto answered. "Those remaining from The Eternal Flame decided that the feud between my parents and grandfather was idiotic and did more harm than good. Because of that, we've absolved them into Whirlwind and so far, there hasn't been any issues."
"So, what could they possibly want?" Hinata questioned.
Shikamaru shrugged. "Honestly, at this point I can't figure that out. Orochimaru has been cocky in the past but this is just pure stupidity on his part. Unfortunately, we couldn't track him down to his hotel. Once he got into the city itself, he took backways and those alleys don't have cameras."
"We asked around and no one is claiming to have seen anything," Matsuri chimed in.
"Let's spread the word that Orochimaru's moving again," Naruto suggested as he looked at Gaara.
"Can I make a suggestion?" Hinata asked.
The tabled looked at Hinata.
"Why doesn't Whirlwind and the other yakuza move to Oto?" Hinata questioned. "From what I understand, Phoenix doesn't have the strength necessary to fight any of your families which means they probably can't even defend themselves. If you all set up some of your people in Whirlwind and split the land five ways, it can be considered neutral ground for you all."
Naruto wore a proud grin.
"That could actually work." Shikamaru seemed a little surprised he hadn't thought of it himself. He looked to Matsuri who nodded in agreement. "Gaara?"
"I'd be fine with that," Gaara confessed.
"And I'm sure Otou-san will be fine with it too," Naruto added. "That's two out of the five. Master A will take a little convincing. Oba-chan will be able to convince Lady Mei to agree."
"And Ohnoki?" Gaara asked.
"He'll agree once Master A agrees." Naruto took another sip of his coffee while placing his hand on Hinata's leg. He gave her a gentle squeeze and Hinata couldn't help but smile a little bit in response.
The rest of their meeting consisted of them coming up with the full details of how Oto City would be divided. Hinata and Shikamaru came up with all the socioeconomic benefits it would provide for the citizens of Oto along with the personal economic benefits it'd provide each of the yakuzas. Matsuri typed up the notes during all of this.
After breakfast was over and Gaara and Matsuri left, Shikamaru returned to his room for his early afternoon nap. Naruto and Hinata grabbed a separate elevator from Shikamaru and once inside, Naruto got close to Hinata.
He pressed his lips against hers with his tongue immediately entering her mouth. Hinata responded to the kiss, her hands gripping his shirt and a moan escaping her lips as Naruto's hands maneuvered underneath her skirt and grabbed her bottom. He lifted one leg and wrapped it around his waist and pressed his crotch against hers.
Hinata gripped his shirt tighter at the feeling of the bulge in his pants. Their intense make-out session lasted until the elevator dinged and the doors opened. Naruto stepped away from Hinata and she quickly fixed the skirt of her dress as an elderly couple shuffled onto the elevator.
Naruto held his hands in front of his lap while smiling politely at the elderly couple. It was an awkward minute before the elevator finally opened on Naruto and Hinata's floor. The quickly exited and scurried down the hall to their room. Once they were in the room, Naruto's lips were on Hinata's again before the door shut behind them.
He lifted her off the ground and carried her into their room and Naruto groaned as Hinata grabbed his hair and pressed her body against his. He walked over to the bed and placed Hinata on the edge of the bed before breaking their kiss.
He removed his shirt and watched as Hinata pulled off her dress before undoing his belt. She made quick work of the button and zipper before pulling down his shorts and boxers to allow his erection to spring forth. Without hesitation, she ran her tongue along the entirety of his length a few times before slipping him into his mouth.
Naruto groaned in the back of his throat as he grabbed a fistful of Hinata's hair. He watched as Hinata bobbed her head at a steady pace with her tongue rubbing against the underside of his shaft. She was taking more of him into her mouth and the look in her eyes just made him want her more.
Naruto couldn't wait. He pulled away from Hinata and pulled his boxers and shorts off entirely. "Bend over," he ordered.
Hinata complied. She removed her bra and panties before bending over against the bed. Naruto lifted one of her legs, so her knee was on the bed before kneeling behind her and licking her from behind. She was already wet, and the warmth of Naruto's breath just sent a shiver through her body. He lapped his tongue against her folds a few times before standing up and opening the drawer of the nightstand next to them.
He quickly ripped open a condom wrapper with his teeth and rolled it on before sliding into Hinata. Hinata let out a moan while Naruto groaned in the back of his throat. He began thrusting almost immediately and Hinata let out moans of pleasure in response.
Naruto watched as Hinata slowly laid down against the bed and began to arch her back as her arms lost the strength to hold her up. The expression on her face drove Naruto over the edge and he wanted nothing more than to help her keep making that expression. He began thrusting deeper and Hinata reached her arm out and grabbed a fistful of their blanket.
"Too much?" Naruto asked, his voice husky.
Hinata looked back at him, a special look in her eyes. "More, Naruto-kun."
Naruto smirked. "Your wish is my command," Naruto said before pulling out and watching as Hinata rolled over onto her back. He didn't waste time admiring her as he slid back inside of her and began thrusting.
Hinata held onto the blanket above her head as Naruto provided her with intense pleasure. She bit her lip to suppress her moans but there was only so much she could do. Though sex for the two of them was far and few between for the last few months, Naruto remembered what made Hinata tick and took notice of the new things he learned in the process.
He leaned down and kissed Hinata. She happily responded and they both immediately allowed their tongues to swirl around one another. Naruto's thrust quickened in pace and increased in intensity which caused Hinata to wrap her arms around his neck and dig her nails into his shoulders.
Her moans were muffled but loud in their kiss and Naruto let out a groan as Hinata scratched his back. He tightened his grip on the back of Hinata's knee and it just encouraged him to pleasure her more. Their kiss quickly turned sloppy but neither of them cared.
"Naruto-kun," Hinata cried out louder than she had before as Naruto hit a new spot.
Naruto smirked. "Looks like I found something new." He thrusted the same way he had a moment ago and watched as Hinata bit her lip and placed a hand against his chest. He enjoyed the sight of a struggling Hinata and figured he'd watch her squirm some more.
He licked his thumb before bringing it down and rubbing it against her clit. Paired with his tip hitting her newly found sweet spot, Hinata let out a delicious moan that sent a chill down Naruto's spine.
"Wait." Hinata's voice began to dribble out and Naruto continued playing with her. She sat up on one of her elbows and placed a hand against his pelvis. She was making a new expression as she struggled to get her words out and maintain herself. With a few more thrusts paired with his thumb twirling around her clit, Hinata's body quaked. "So-something's coming!"
Naruto watched as Hinata arched her back and a clear fluid squirted out while her body shook violently. He watched as she buried her face into the mattress once she finished and he couldn't help but be proud.
"Say, Hinata." Naruto leaned over her, his mouth close to her ear. "Did you just squirt?"
Hinata mumbled something into the mattress and Naruto laughed.
"Don't be embarrassed," he encouraged as he began moving again, slowly this time. "I take it as a compliment that I was able to make you squirt."
"I've never done that before," Hinata whined as she peeked at Naruto. "Not even when –." Hinata stopped and looked away from Naruto.
"Even when what?" Naruto stopped thrusting but made sure he was all the way inside of her. He felt the way Hinata pulsated around him and he growled in the back of his throat in response. "I'm not moving again until you finish that statement."
Hinata looked at him, her expression sweet and innocent. But it wasn't enough to convince Naruto to drop it. He enjoyed teasing her and making her say things she wouldn't normally say with anyone else.
"Come on, finish the statement," Naruto urged as he began grinding his hips against her and causing a second wave of sweetness to wash over Hinata.
"Geez, fine!" Hinata whined. "I was going to say, 'not even when I masturbate.'"
Naruto chuckled. "I knew it. How often are you masturbating?"
"Naruto-kun," Hinata whined as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Now I'm just curious," Naruto confessed with a large grin. "Come on. Answer the question."
Hinata blushed. "Most nights. The last few months, I haven't been able to spend a lot of time with you and it wasn't until recently that we were able to be together again. I got lonely."
The words, "I got lonely" caused a twinge in Naruto's heart. His grin subsided into a smile. He placed a gentle kiss on Hinata's forehead before meeting her eyes. "I'm sorry."
Hinata shook her head. "It wasn't your fault."
"Still." Naruto sat up and pulled out of Hinata. He sat on the edge of the bed and lied down beside her. "I'll never make you feel like that again. I promise."
Hinata watched him for a moment before sitting up and climbing into his lap. She took ahold of his erection and easily slid him back inside of her before she leaned down and kissed him. He kissed back, sweet and gentle, before she pulled away and stared into his eyes.
She smiled sweetly and held up her pinky finger. Naruto smiled before linking his pinky with hers. "If you tell a lie you have to swallow a thousand needles," she sang the old pinky swear rhyme from when they were kids.
"Sealed with a kiss," Naruto finished the rest as they pressed their thumbs together. He used his other hand to lace his fingers through her hair and pull her down into another kiss. They stayed like that for a few moments before pulling apart. "Things will be different from now on. I promise."
"I know," she assured him with a smile. "I love you."
"I love you too." Naruto watched as Hinata sat up and slowly began to move her hips.
It wasn't long before the sweetness of the moment before dissipated and turned into carnal passion. Hinata rode Naruto to her heart's content and watched as he was powerless beneath her. Though she knew it was by choice, she enjoyed it nonetheless. His hands gripped her breasts at one point and he began to thrust his hips upward.
He quickly took back over soon after by sitting up and standing up with Hinata in his arms. He hooked his arms underneath Hinata's knees and as she hung onto him, she grinded her hips against his. He had her against the wall and thrust into her as deep as he was allowed.
They stayed like this well into the afternoon. It wasn't until multiple orgasms later and a whole box of condoms that they were satisfied. Together, they laid panting on the floor of their hotel room. Their bed was an absolute mess and had a maid taken a blacklight to the room, she would've been shocked.
"I'll have to leave an extra-large tip tomorrow morning," Naruto confessed and Hinata giggled. He looked over at her and saw the way she lied there with her eyes closed. He turned over on his side and watched her. "You can't sleep on the floor."
"I can't exactly use my legs right now," Hinata argued. "Somebody has rendered them useless for the next few hours."
"Only a few hours? I didn't work hard enough then," Naruto teased and after Hinata did one exaggerated fake laugh, Naruto laughed as well.
"Trust me, you worked hard enough." Hinata opened her eyes and saw Naruto looking at her. "You should probably check on Itachi and see if he's here yet."
"You're right." Naruto sat up and looked around for his shorts. He found them and searched his pockets for his phone before seeing it had fallen out and slid elsewhere. He grabbed it and checked it. There was a few missed calls and text messages but none of them were urgent. His most recent text was from Itachi informing Naruto that he'd landed and was headed to the hotel.
Naruto quickly responded with Sasuke's room number and how he might have to request a key from the front desk in case of Sakura's inability to leave Sasuke on his own. Itachi responded quickly and Naruto gave a nod of approval before getting up. "I need to go check on Sasuke one more time before he leaves."
"Give Sasuke my love," Hinata said.
Naruto chuckled again before standing over Hinata and squeezing her legs. She whined a bit before allowing Naruto to lift her off the ground and carry her into the bathroom. He sat her on the edge of the tub before running the water and looking through the assortment of bath oils and body washes the hotel provided.
"I'll figure it out," Hinata told him as she took a bottle of oil from him and read the back of it.
With that, Naruto took a quick shower and got dressed. As he exited his room, Itachi was passing by. Together, they went into Sasuke's room and found them in the same position they were in earlier that day.
They had changed clothes and there were two empty plates which was a good sign but Sasuke was still curled up in Sakura's arms. When Sasuke saw Itachi, it was like he was five years old again and returning home after being stuck with Orochimaru for two weeks. He jumped out of bed and hugged his brother as tight as he possibly could. Sasuke sobbed and they both sank onto the floor.
"I'm here," Itachi cooed as he rubbed Sasuke's back and kissed his head. "You're okay. Shh. It's all right."
"Did he eat?" Naruto asked as Sakura climbed out of bed and stretched.
"A little but he wasn't able to keep it down," Sakura confessed. "I got him to soak in the tub for a little while which seemed to help but other than that, there hasn't been much of a change from last night."
Naruto wasn't surprised. He knelt beside Itachi and Sasuke and rubbed Sasuke's back. "Itachi's going to take you home, okay?"
Sasuke nodded.
"Is his stuff packed?" Itachi asked Sakura and watched as she shook her head. "I'll get it."
"No, you stay there. I'll get it," Sakura urged. "I need to stretch a little bit anyway. Just give me a few minutes."
Naruto help Sakura with packing hers and Sasuke's stuff and once that was done, Naruto called for two bellhops who then came and took their bags out of the room. Once everything was accounted for, Naruto walked with the three of them down into the lobby.
"I'll be back in Konoha tomorrow morning," Naruto said as they stood curbside. He kissed Sakura's cheek before shaking Itachi's hand and rubbing Sasuke's head. "Call me when you land and get in, okay? I'll come by and see Sasuke after I get home."
"All right," Sakura said before looking at Sasuke. "Ready?"
Sasuke nodded quietly before disappearing into the car. Itachi climbed in after him followed by Sakura. She waved to Naruto from the window and he waved back as the car pulled away from the curb.
And with that, their Spring Vacation ended.
To Be Continued…
