Looking back on the night of his first date Naruto could only smile fondly. After their wonderful dinner and dessert Naruto had suggested going for a walk around town. After forty five minutes of wandering they ended up somewhere special. Naruto lead Izumi to the nearby lake, where they sat on a bench overlooking the water. The bench was framed by two elm trees, both leaning together to meet over the bench in a pale imitation of two young lovers leaning against each other for both warmth and for love. Looking through the moonlight dappled leaves of the intertwining elm you could see Naruto and Izumi, holding each other just like the trees above, like they were the only thing that mattered or existed to the world. If you asked either of them in that moment if it was true neither would even bother responding, too busy staring into their partners eyes, whispering sweet words of love.
In front of the young couple was a picturesque scene. The bench was on one of the small rolling hills that surrounded the area. They had the perfect view of the lake in front of them. The large lake was black as night, reflecting the starry sky above them. The stillness of the water on this windless night made the lake seem like a portal into the void, a portal into the dark emptiness that both Naruto and Izumi held deep down in a part of their soul. Above the lake the full moon held strong and firm, lovingly shining its pale light down onto the couple and the lake below. The only sounds the couple could hear were the occasional hoots of a nearby owl and her young chicks, the chitters of crickets, and the deep sounds of their partners breathing. The darkness of the lake was offset by its beautiful surroundings and the malevolent ambiance of it all.
In Izumi's mind the view they sat watching was almost metaphoric. From the respective darkness of each others childhood they had found happiness. Naruto was as alone and the solitary ripple in the water made from an insect landing on the water, being gobbled by a fish that came to surface. Just like that fly if Naruto had made a single mistake in his childhood the hatred of Konoha would have swallowed him up, never to be seen again just like the solitary bug and the fish hiding in the depth. From that awful place Naruto had made impressions on the leaf and they were starting to see just what they had shunned. Naruto had saved the village by defeating the future Kazekage in single combat. He had found Konoha allies like Wave and the Land of Spring. Just like the ripples borne from the stillness of the water Naruto had risen up from nothing and made a large impression on the ninja world, very large considering he had done all that when he was thirteen.
Naruto's opinion mirrored his girlfriend except when he stared at the scene in front of him he saw in from the perspective of Izumi. She was like the full moon, shining down from high up in the sky basting the world in its pale, deathly beautiful aura. Just like the moon she stood alone and unafraid, bigger than life. She was surrounded by peers back before the massacre but they never knew her. They saw Itachi, the emotionless drone, the killing machine, the Uchiha prodigy who could rival a young Madara. No one saw her struggles, her identity issues. They saw the incomparable Itachi Uchiha, when all she wanted was to be Izumi, the young caring girl she really was. The moon always seemed to go with the stars on a cloudless night, just like Itachi seemed to be the perfect ninja of Konoha. No one notices how the moon is different, how it is forced to stand alone away from the stars, vastly different but not of its own choice. Just like Izumi the moon was always misunderstood, they took it for granted, never appreciating, never spending the moment to ponder or to ask a question, they always just stood and watched from afar, afraid of getting to close. Now that Naruto knew the real Izumi he gained a new appreciation for the full moon hanging gracefully in the sky. Proud and beautiful, but hidden away most of the time, just like his breathtaking Izumi.
Both Naruto and Izumi stared at their surroundings, taking in the wonders of both the scenery and their partner. Just like how the cold dark lake held the reflection of only the full moon and none of the stars, the moon seemed to shine most of its pale light onto the water, lighting it up and showing all the meaning and profoundness one would miss at first glance at the body of water. Just like the moon and the lake, like the elm trees speckled in moonlight, Naruto and Izumi came together, lips hungry for their partner. As both partners embrace became ravenous Izumi stopped them, she looked into the eyes of the man who knew her whole being just like she knew his. She slowly, sensually took off her clothes and helped her boyfriend do the same. As they came together in full view of the moonlight and the reflection of the lake neither had any regret. They took each other and they lost part of themselves to the other.
After they were both thoroughly satisfied with each other hours later the there was nothing on either of their minds except the other. As Izumi lay on her lovers heavily beating bare chest and kissed him over the heart she couldn't hear the wildlife anymore, the exhilarating rush she just went through made her entirely focus on the ragged breaths she could both hear and feel coming from her partner. Just in time with her own heavy breathing, the love she felt in her own being and knew was echoed in Naruto was all she knew. Standing up on sore legs, burning from the passion she was feeling only moments ago she lifted up her lover and wrapped him in her arms. She Shunshined the both of them back to her bed in the Uchiha hideout, for the continuation of their loving embrace. In the morning sun an elderly couple decided to take a walk past the nearby lake. As they came upon the sight of Naruto and Izumi's abandoned clothes they could only smile fondly, remembering their own moments they had in this romantic spot. Both of them could only leave a wish for a long and happy relationship for the young couple who were obviously so caught up in the moment they left their clothes by the this was a sign it seemed the young couple may just have as long and as loving a relationship as they did.
That was almost five months ago now. Their relationship couldn't better. Their relationship was progressing fast but in a very comfortable way for both of the. Nearly twenty-four hours a day were spent with each other. The only time Naruto could remember not spending with Izumi si when one of them is using the bathroom or has to make a run in to town for supplies. They trained together, ate together, slept next to each other, hell they even bathed with each other everyday. Their sex life was also something Naruto was exceedingly happy with. Almost everyday they were at each other like newlyweds, a quickie in the morning before training if they were both up to it, a little shower fun time after training if neither were too sore or tired, and almost every night before they fell asleep tired to the bone in each others arms. They were inseparable, and they both loved it.
Naruto could kind of understand the perversions of Ero-Sennin now, he couldn't really see any downsides of constant, intense sex aside from some chafing, soreness, and a bit of dehydratedness. Naruto could imagine his old masters motivation for all things perverted, but there were things he didn't agree with. Naruto didn't agree with peaking, sure he had a very healthy appreciation for a woman's body but he had zero interest in peaking. Seeing a naked woman is great but why peak on a woman who doesn't want to be seen, it seemed wrong to him. He had several little gripes with the pervertedness of the sage but what he really didn't see the value with was sleeping around or with whores. What made sex with Izumi so great was that it was with Izumi, he knew what made her feel good and she knew what made him feel good. Half the pleasure to sex for Naruto was just being connected to your partner. He hadno interest in fucking the blonde who lived across the street from the general store he bought supplies in. Sure she was a very attractive woman, in all honestly almost as attractive as Izumi herself but that just wasn't enough for him. She flirted with him everytime he went into town, making it obvious what she wanted when she invited him into her apartment for some 'tea'. He could have sex with her but there was no connection, no emotional value. That's what made sexual activities so amazing, giving pleasure to a partner you loved. How Jiraiya could spend his days sleeping with anything that moved stumped him. He knew that he was in love with Tsunade-Baachan but that apparently didn't stop him from fucking any half dcent whore or woman that gave the slightest hint of being interested. If he stopped sleeping around maybe the Hokage would give Jiraiya a chance, but that was just Naruto's opinion.
In other news he did finally see the glory in the little orange books his master would write and his old teacher would read. Icha Icha Paradise gave him and Izumi a lot of inspiration for some of their nightly fun but their favourite scene to recreate was from Icha Icha Tactics. Roleplay became a big kink of both of theirs after reading those books, he had made sure to thank Jiraiya through Gamakichi after he had asked his old master for some of the books. In the note Jiraiya sent both Izumi and Naruto had a good laugh seeing that in Jiaiya's view he had finally 'given into the ways of the pervert.' He did feel a little bad for Kakashi though, reading those books everyday over and over again. There were only four books how bad of a sexual slump did his teacher have to be in to read the books over and over again with no one to read it with. Looking back, he really didn't know his teacher's personal life that well, maybe he had a girl that he just didn't bother to show his genin team. Maybe the proctor for the second stage of the exam? She looked kinda freaky and did say she knew the man.
Aside from his sexual escapades and musings his ninja training had slowed down some. He now spent even more time than the previous months doing physical training, almost five hours a day now. Since both his affinities had been trained well he had focused on practicing his collection of jutsu, both Futon and Suiton. He had a nice little repertoire of jutsu, not too big and not too small, and was currently training on applying elemental chakra to his rasengan. He decided to only use three clones a day to do this, his father created the original jutsu and it seemed it was his job to complete it. He wanted to live up to the legacy his father left him without the semi-cheating clone learning techniques. Speaking of his father Naruto had decided to get over his misgivings with him and started studying fuuinjutsu. It was progressing quite well but he was nowhere near unlocking the lock for the Hiraishin located on his body. Izumi knew next to nothing about the art of sealing aside from how to use basic seals like storage scrolls and exploding notes. He had asked Jiraiya for some workbooks through the toads and he had been surprisingly helpful. Apparently sealing was too dangerous for a novice to learn so Jiraiya moved away from his laissez-faire teaching methods where he would give the bare minimum information and let Naruto work out the details on his own. Whenever Jiraiya sent any information or homework on seals he would send along intricately detailed notes and instructions on every small little aspect of each individual seal. Jiraiya seemed very proud of how fast Naruto was progressing but to Naruto it seemed to be progressing at a snail's pace. His work with the three-tomoe sharingan was great. He could break down and copy enemy jutsu the first time he saw them, his reflexes and seeing where the next strike would be has shot up. He could even cast sharingan genjutsu with eye contact, though he still had almost no progress with regular genjutsu, uhh the downside of having Kurama. The nine tails itself and him had gotten on surprisingly well. He could use the four tails cloak well and was currently training to move up to five and onwards.
Yes overall everything was great, he was a jounin calibre ninja, great with the sharingan, had two summoning clans he worked great with, he was a jinchuuriki that got along with his captive bijuu. He had a gorgeous and amazing girlfriend he loved with all his heart, who he also had an active sex life with. Bonus points for that by the way. His amazing girlfriend was also his amazingly powerful sensei that patiently trained him up from a surprisingly untrained genin to a powerful jounin calibre ninja in nine months. Yup overall life was great for Naruto, no problems and no stress, he'd say he was currently in the prime of his life which is surprising for a fifteen year old. Oh Izumi finally got out of the bathroom, took her a little while.
"Naruto-Kun, don't be upset but I have to tell you something. I'm pregnant."
