Scum

Just as Tenten was about to flick the light switch up, Hinata grabbed the heavy blanket and covered Naruto's head. Every nerve in her body trembled as she felt Naruto stirring beside her. Although Tenten had never seen Naruto, she knew the girl could not keep her mouth shut if she saw a strange man lying on her bed.

"Hinata!" Tenten said, surprised, although her eyes had a mischievous glint.

"Tenten," Hinata smiled faintly. "What are you doing here?" She carefully pulled the blanket off her, walking up to the taller girl. She went on her tiptoes to try to block her friend's view when she tried to look at the silhouette on her bed. "How did you get in?"

"Ah, I had your keys! I forgot my wallet, so I came to get it." Tenten replied cheerily. "I see you have company over."

"Company?" Neji approached the two girls, but Hinata swiftly pushed Tenten out and slammed the door behind her.

"Woah, Hinata," Tenten said, stumbling back slightly.

"Tenten, you shouldn't enter someone's place without notifying them first." Hinata scolded.

Sensing how upset the girl sounded, Tenten laughed nervously. "I'm sorry, Hinata. I just got curious to know who was here."

"Company?" Neji repeated, catching the attention of the two girls.

"Oh, Neji!" Tenten groaned. "Hinata is a grown woman. She can have anyone she wants over."

Neij's piercing gaze made her uncomfortable, but she knew if she broke her gaze, he would suspect something was amiss. Crossing his arms, his eyes lingered on the shut door, which Hinata quickly caught on to. He fixed his mouth to say something, but he held it in. The words he wanted to say would sound like an interrogation because this was something out of the ordinary for Hinata, his sister. If she did have company, they sure as hell would not be in her bedroom. Maybe she was dating again, but he would have been the first to know. Maybe she was back with that dog boy. He hated overthinking, and he could sense his mind going on overdrive.

"Did you get your wallet, Tenten?" Neji inquired as he broke his gaze to look at Tenten, who had sneakily entered the kitchen to swipe some bread.

"Uh, yes," Tenten replied, scratching her cheek. "I'm sorry again, Hinata. Can you forgive me?"

"Only because you're my friend," Hinata responded. She made her way to the kitchen and stuffed a clear bag with a loaf of bread. "Drive safely,"

Neji gazed at her once more before walking outside. "Call me if you ever need me, Hinata."

"See ya later, Hinata," Tenten smiled as she followed behind Neji. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Please drive safely," Hinata said, following behind them.

Neji looked back at her and pressed his lips together as he wanted to say something but decided against it. Whatever Hinata did with a man was her business, but he couldn't deny the overprotectiveness coming out. For the past three months, she had been acting strange, and no matter how often he asked her what was wrong, she said she was okay.

"Good night, Hinata," Neji finally said before walking away.

"Let me know when you reach home," Hinata said, waving at them.

Once they disappeared into the elevator, she closed the front door and dropped to her butt. That entire ordeal was so overwhelming. She didn't know what Neji would have done if he had seen Naruto on her bed. Speaking of Naruto…

Pushing herself off the ground, she walked to her bedroom, making sure to open the door quietly as she knew it would creak. Flicking the lights on, she was surprised to see Naruto was still sound asleep. Now that she remembered, he did look tired. Looking at the analog clock, it read 10 PM. She knew she had to wake him up to get home to his… wife, but she didn't want to disturb him. Sighing, she approached the young man nudging him gently.

"Naruto," She called out to him. "Naruto," She nudged him a little harder. Still no movement. Just as Hinata began to panic, Naruto stirred in his sleep before rolling to her side of the bed. She chewed down on her lip when seeing his exposed chest. Shaking her head, she climbed on the bed and called, "Naruto!"

The man's eyes snapped open, and he almost jumped out of the bed when Hinata held him down. "I'm sorry for screaming your name, but you wouldn't wake up."

He ran his fingers through his jet-black hair and then laid back down on the soft bed. Holding his chest, his eyes drifted to Hinata, then the analog clock. 10:02 PM.

"You didn't get any sleep last night?"

Sleep began to sound foreign. He couldn't remember the last time he had a good night's rest because he was either constantly locked out of the room and forced to sleep on the sofa or Sakura made his night terrible with her constant bickering.

"On and off," he yawned. "I had to sleep on the couch last night."

"Why?"

"Because I told her I didn't want to have a child with her… yet," Naruto mumbled. "I feel foolish for even suggesting it in the first place, knowing our relationship was not good."

"Oh," Hinata mumbled, embarrassed for feeling such a way. It was his wife. Those discussions were regular.

"Are you okay?" Naruto asked, gazing at her.

She nodded. "A-are you going home now?"

Naruto knew he should go home to his wife, but he already knew how the night would play out. They would bicker back and forth, and Sakura would try to hit him or throw something if he was lucky, then lock him out of the room, thus forcing him to sleep on the couch… again.

"I don't want to," He admitted. "I already know what's going to happen if I do."

"You can stay here!" Hinata said too excitingly. Laughing nervously, she chewed down on her bottom lip, looking away. "If you want to."

"I want to."

Hinata looked down at him, his face just as equally red as hers. "If you don't mind," She quickly climbed off the bed. "I-I'm going to take a shower!"

Naruto didn't even see her when she ran into the bathroom. She was so fast… He was nervous. In his entire life, he had never slept in another woman's house that was not Sakura, nor did he lay in another woman's bed that was not his mother's or wife's. Truth be told, all these things should have made him uneasy or guilt-ridden, but they didn't. All he wanted to do was to hold Hinata and sleep peacefully. His head turned to the door when he heard the shower turn on. Maybe he would call out of work tomorrow.

Naruto looked at himself in the foggy mirror while wiping the steam off the window. Just behind those doors, Hinata was waiting for him. He took a shower, but none of them thought it through. He didn't have any boxers or clothes to wear. She had put his clothes into the washer twenty minutes ago, but he was left butt-naked, and her shirts certainly wouldn't fit him. His face had never been so red.

"Naruto, um… maybe you can wear this," Hinata said from behind the door.

The steam from the bathroom seeped out from the slightly opened door, and Naruto's eyes widened when he saw a long silk dress she had in her hand. "This one is a little big on me, so you should try it on."

Shakenly, he took hold of the nightgown and nodded, "Thank you," before closing the door. Looking over the nightgown, he sighed. "It was last minute, Naruto." He said to himself.

His right eye twitched when he saw his reflection in the mirror. If he bent over, Hinata would have been able to see his nuts! There was no way he could wear this.

"Did it fit, Naruto?"

"Hinata, I can't wear this. I just can't."

"I'm sure it isn't bad," Hinata said. "Let me see it."

Sighing, Naruto opened the door, and Hinata's eyes widened at the sight of him. Her cheeks puffed out; her body trembled as she quickly turned around. Naruto's right eye twitched when she tried to hold in her giggles.

"W-white looks good on you, Naruto," She giggled in between.

"Hinata!" Naruto cried. "I can't wear this."

"Your clothes are in the dryer now, so give it thirty minutes," she said, smiling.

Hanging his head low, Naruto walked, oddly, to the bedroom. The nightgown was tight, which restricted his movements. Hinata was starting to feel for the young man. "If you don't want to wear it, you can take it off." She mumbled. "I don't have a problem if you want to."

Sleep naked? He wasn't any stranger to it, but he felt flustered knowing Hinata would be next to him. He had a hard time getting rid of his erection when seeing her in her silky satin nightgown that hugged her body. With one jolt, her breast would spill over.

"I'm fine," He shivered. "Let's go to bed."

The two lay down next to one another, staring at the ceiling. Neither said a word, or maybe because their tongues were too heavy to speak; embarrassed, flustered, and nervous as to what might happen if they were to move in the slightest played in their mind.

Naruto was a good-looking man.

Hinata was a good-looking woman.

The thoughts that played in their minds at night were a dead giveaway. They wouldn't be naïve to deny the attraction they had for one another. It would be a huge step that they both knew would be unstoppable. That would have sealed the deal of their sins.

Naruto squeezed his eyes tightly as he tried to think of anything to get rid of this erection slowly rising, and the cold air was not making it easy. He almost gasped when Hinata placed her head on his chest.

"I'm glad I'm not the only one nervous."

"I always get nervous when I'm around you," Naruto whispered.

"Why?"

"Because you make me want to do things I wouldn't do." He replied. "When I'm with you, I don't want to mess up in front of you, and no matter how hard I try to play it cool, you do something to me."

Hinata ran her fingers in a circle on the silk gown she had given him. He could feel the outline of her breast pushed against him, making him shudder. He couldn't recall the last time he had sex with Sakura. Maybe if they did, he wouldn't be like a horny teenager getting their first hard-on.

"You make me do things I wouldn't do either. Even now," She chewed down on her bottom lips.

The lights turned on when Naruto clapped his hands. Hinata's eyes widened as that was unexpected. Naruto didn't know what possessed him to do that, but if she had continued to talk in such a way, he didn't know if he would be able to control these urges.

"Are you okay, Naruto?" She asked, leaning up.

When she did that, Naruto's eyes widened when her breast spilled from the silky gown.

"Fuck," He mumbled when the erection he had been trying to control took control.

Hinata quickly covered herself, turning away from Naruto. Her entire body was a strawberry-red color, and she felt so embarrassed.

"I'm sorry!" She squeaked out. "I- I shouldn't have worn this gown."

Naruto didn't know what he was doing but placed his hand on Hinata's shoulder. "It's fine, Hinata. You look beautiful." He mumbled, trying to forget his erection. Clearly, Hinata was quite embarrassed at the ordeal. "See, I'm embarrassed too," he said.

Looking over her shoulder, she saw how flushed Naruto's face was. "I'm sorry I acted so abruptly," He spoke. "When you say certain things, my body reacts on its own."

Finding the confidence, Hinata turned around, her bust still exposed for him to see. Naruto's eyes traveled down from her face to her neck until he'd seen her chest for the second time that night. From what he could tell, it was creamy and had so much weight to them. Her nipples were solid and had a peachy pink color to them. They'd look suckable.

"Are you testing me?" Naruto chuckled.

Hinata shook her head, looking at him. "Y-you said I look beautiful."

"You do. You always do." He stared longingly into her eyes.

With trembling fingers, she tugged at the thin straps of the nightgown he had on. "You can take it off, and I'll take off mine."

Naruto swallowed the lump in his throat. Was he ready for this next step? Seeing the look in her eyes and his own selfish desires, he did what he was told. Hinata looked at Naruto's exposed stomach, admiring the tattoo that sat right in the center. She would have seen his blonde pubes and hardened member if the blankets were any lower. Naruto was also admiring Hinata's body with her massive breast that sat on her chest. He admired how perky her peachy nipples looked at him, calling out to him.

When he promised to spend time with her on his lunch today, he had no intentions of going this far with her, but here he was on the verge of devouring his meal. Sakura wasn't even a thought in his mind. Just Hinata and her perky nipples that called out to him.

Hinata saw the hungry look in Naruto's eyes, and she felt a sense of pride that she was able to get a man she'd admire to look at her in such a way. Seeing that look made her want to take better care of her body, so he'd always have that look when gawking at her.

"You can touch them if you want to," she spoke bravely.

Shakenly, Naruto's fingers touched her hard knob, and that sent a shiver down their spine. He squeezed her left nipple gently, resulting in a low moan from Hinata.

It had been so long… Maybe he should have stopped, but he couldn't, or perhaps he just didn't want to.

Hinata gasped loudly when Naruto devoured her nipple and began to suck on it. She was tingling all throughout as she squirmed around the bed in excitement as Naruto ravished her nipple with his tongue. Her back arched when he paid attention to her other nipple.

"N-Naruto," She managed to call out to him.

With his free hand, he squeezed her nipple that had just been violated with his mouth. He turned and twisted them to get a reaction out of her. Hinata could feel herself getting wetter by the second. Secretly, she tried to slide her hand down to her intimate place to fondle herself, but Naruto noticed what she was about to do. He grabbed her hands and pinned them above her head.

"Let me,"

Hinata could have sworn she saw the gates of heaven when Naruto spread her legs apart and began to devour every inch of her intimate place. His tongue roamed freely, licking everything it could find. Her grip on his hair tightened when she buried his face as far as it could go in her. She had never moaned in such a way as he latched onto her clit, sucking on it as he did her breast.

Her legs were shaking, and her breathing became shallow. What sent her over the edge was when Naruto kissed her spot every few seconds. Hinata's body felt haywire as Naruto stuck his tongue in and out of her. She tried to back away from him, but he held her into place as he continued to eat his meal.

"Naruto!" She moaned loudly as she could feel herself ready to release. "P-please," She begged as she left her hips up.

Naruto looked down as Hinata's most intimate place spilled over between her legs and bedsheets. It was so… beautiful. Her legs trembled, and she tried to catch her breath as she still felt herself coming. He was fully erect, hearing her curse and moan out his name while her legs continued to tremble. Seeing her exposed like this made him want to cherish her body even more.

After some time, Hinata's body calmed down, but she would jolt occasionally. Looking into Naruto's eyes made her want to explode. He wanted more. He was hungry for her. He wanted her, and she was ready to give it to him.

Hinata spread her legs apart so Naruto could see how ready she was for him. The tip of his head was oozing at this moment, and that worked her up. Just seeing him in front of her, erect and ready to conquer, flipped a switch in her.

Naruto hovered over her, his eyes still dark with lust. This Naruto was completely different from the one before. Did his wife also feel this way? Or was it only her?

Hinata felt like she was floating on cloud 9 when Naruto planted a kiss on her plump lips. Opening her mouth, he slipped his tongue in, and their tongues fought until he won. Pulling back, Naruto intertwined his fingers with hers, staring into her eyes. He had a look to him, and she wondered if he was contemplating as he made no further movements.

"Do you have a condom?" He asked, kissing her neck.

"I should have some in the draw." She whispered.

Opening the draw, Naruto spotted the pack of condoms then he stared at Hinata.

"That's when I was dating Kiba!" She quickly said, looking all red in the face.

"I didn't say anything," He chuckled. "It's okay," he said, kissing her forehead.

Naruto slid the condom on and got into position. "Let me know if you want to stop at any time," he told her.

Stop? If only he knew how much of a horndog she could really be. Although she looked innocent, Hinata had an appetite for a starved man, from what Kiba always told her. Maybe she just had a high sex drive, or he couldn't please her the way she wanted.

Nodding her head, she took a deep breath when Naruto began pushing himself into her. It felt like forever of feeling something other than her fingers enter her. He continued to push himself into her gently, and he could feel her inside begin to split to adjust to his cock that entered her.

Naruto was beginning to see stars and couldn't let himself come so quickly. Hinata moaned sweetly as he inched his way into her deeper and deeper until he could go no further.

Then suddenly, it dawned on them. They briefly looked into each other eyes and realized that they had sealed the deal.

The bed moved as Naruto rammed in and out of Hinata. He wasn't given her any room to breathe as this had been a long time coming. He would never know what her insides felt like, how tight she clamped down on him, or how she sounded until tonight. Those constant fantasies didn't feel fulfilled until tonight. Those ongoing fantasies didn't depict the real deal.

He gripped her waist tightly, thrusting in and out of her. Her creamy skin turned red as Naruto slammed into her repeatedly, causing her to see little black dots. She called out to him countless times, begging him to go harder and faster, so he did what was told.

"Oh fuck, Hinata," He moaned loudly, watching her breast go up and down with him.

Hinata wrapped her arms around his neck as he picked her up. Her body jerked when he sat her down on his dick. He was going at a steady pace. She looked into his blue eyes, and that was her mistake. Her lady part trembled before it erupted over him. That didn't stop him from moving in and out of her.

"Hinata," He whispered into her ear.

She shook her head. Why did he have to say her name in such a way? She squeezed her eyes shut; her grip tightened around his neck.

"Why are you shaking your head?" He chuckled.

"Because you're so dangerous," She moaned.

"Me? Dangerous?" He quickened his pace. "Tell me, how am I dangerous?"

Her nails sunk into his skin while she cried out to him.

"I know. I know. It's almost over," He groaned loudly. Her walls were gripping him, but he didn't want to end it this way. Sliding out of her, he kissed her before whispering, "Lay on your stomach."

Naruto grabbed a handful of Hinata's bare behind before smacking it. He smacked it again, which made Hinata squeak. He smacked it again and again until it turned a bright red color. The way it jiggled made him feel crazy.

"Stick your ass up in the air," He commanded.

Hearing his stern voice, Hinata had no choice but to abide by his every word. She looked over her shoulder as if she hadn't heard him say anything else. Her eyes widened when she realized Naruto was staring directly at her wet temple.

"Ah," She yelped when Naruto slid his index finger into her. When he pulled it out, he looked over his wet finger as if it was the most precious thing he had ever seen. Watching his every move, he glanced at her before pushing his finger into his mouth, tasting everything they had created.

When she pictured having sex with Naruto, she never knew it would be like this. She didn't know how he would be, but this was unexpected. She loved it.

Naruto placed his hands on each side of her cheeks and shoved his face into her wet place. She squirmed and moaned altogether while Naruto explored her for a second time. Her legs were given out, and every time they caved in, he picked her back up, smacked her bottom, then ate her out as if his life depended on it.

"You said it was almost over," Hinata said between breaths.

"Did I?" He smirked.

Hinata held onto the bedsheets as Naruto slammed into her. The bed squeaked with Hinata's moans while Naruto gave everything he had to offer. She didn't care if the neighbors heard her; all she cared about was this very moment.

"Hinata," He grunted. "Oh fuck, I'm almost there,"

Why did he sound so angelic? Hinata buried her head into her pillow to muffle her cries of pleasure as she came harder on him. Hearing her muffle scream sent him over the edge, and he, too, released into the condom. His breathing was heavy as it had been forever since he was last intimate. Hinata didn't have the strength to move, so she lied there, and eventually, Naruto landed right on top of her, exhausted. He pulled the condom off and quickly tied the end, placing it on the nightstand. He was too tired to move.

"I'm sorry, Hinata," he said as he felt he was crushing the poor girl.

When he didn't hear anything, he looked at her. She was fast asleep.


The following day rolled by, and Naruto cuddled Hinata into his arms. She slept soundly in his arms, while he had only gotten a few hours of sleep. His body was used to waking up early since Sakura usually came home around this time, but he would be in denial if he said that was the reason he got a few hours of sleep. The guilt was sinking in now. He had sex with another woman while being married to Sakura. Maybe if they had stuck to kissing, it would have been somewhat okay, but that was not the case. He had sex… He tried to swallow the lump in his throat. He had sex with Hinata.

Now he was officially known as a cheater. He didn't think a lick of Sakura while fucking Hinata, but here she came haunting his mind.

"I knew you were a fucking cheater!" Is all he could hear her say if she was to find out.

Hinata stirred in his arms as she buried her head into his chest. His heart fluttered when he felt her move, and he felt like a piece of shit. No, he was a piece of shit. Shikamaru warned him to cut things off with her, and he did, but that did not end well.

Just how long would he be able to keep everything hidden?

Naruto decided to stay home with Hinata since she was off for the rest of the day. While she was cleaning up the kitchen, he went to grab his phone from the car and was speechless to see the hundreds of text messages and calls from not only Sakura but Shikamaru, Kin, and Temari.

Sakura: Naruto, are you okay? I've been calling you nonstop! I stopped by your job, and that little bitch didn't let me into your office. She said you're in a meeting, but they're telling me you didn't come in today.

Shikamaru: Naruto, where are you? Sakura texted me and said you didn't come home last night. Are you okay?

Temari: Hey, little bro, you good? Sakura called me asking if I had seen you.

Kin: Boss! Your wife came here looking for you. I didn't let her into the office and told her you were in a meeting, but I guess someone told her they didn't see you today. You better call her because she is pissed as fuck.

He briefly thanked Kin for letting him know what happened. She responded with a heart.

The phone rang once before Sakura screamed at him. "Where the fuck are you?!" His ears rang. "I've been calling you nonstop since last night! You're not at work, so where the fuck are you, Naruto? Shikamaru and Temari didn't see you either, so better not say you were with them." She threatened. "I swear to God, if you were sleeping by another woman's house, I'm going to lose my shit."

Naruto's tongue felt heavy as to what to say. Yes, he was at another woman's house, but there was no way he would admit that to her. She might just grab his neck over the phone.

"I'm fucking waiting!"

"Forgive me, kaa-san," He thought to himself. "After our little argument during lunchtime, I went to my parent's house. I've been here all night."

There was an awkward silence between the two, and he felt worse than shit to use going to his parent's home as a scapegoat.

"Why did that Kin girl lied and say you were in a meeting."

"I did go in briefly, but I just couldn't deal with it, so I left." He mumbled.

"Am I not your wife?"

"You are."

"So, why do I feel like you're not treating me like I am? You could have told me," She began to sob. "I was up all night worried about you. At least you could have called me to tell me."

"I know. I know. I'm sorry," He rested his forehead on the wall and listened to her shuffle around. Was there a feeling to feel worse than shit?

"I'm home today, so… please come home now."

There was a pleading in her voice, but he just couldn't. Hinata was waiting patiently for him, and he didn't want to see Sakura's face. The guilt would be too much for him.

"Just give me some time. I'll be home tonight," He sighed. "I'll pay for your day spa today." He said, hoping it would make up for his absents. "Just tell me how much it is, and I'll pay for it."

She sniffled. "C-can I get that dress I've been wanting?"

"Yes, you have my credit card. Go ahead and buy it." His heart sunk lower into his stomach. He felt so nauseous.

"Okay," She whispered. "I-I love you."

Naruto pinched the bridge of his nose as he just wanted to slam his phone against the wall. "I love you too. Have a nice day." He quickly disconnected the call before she could say anything else.

Hinata glanced at Naruto, who entered the house silently. There was an awkward air around him, and she sensed it.

"Is everything okay, Naruto?" She grabbed his hand, which seemed to snap him out of his brooding thoughts.

"Huh?"

Hinata looked down at the phone that buzzed in his hand, and she knew who it was. "Are you upset because of last night?"

"I'm such a fucked-up person," His voice trembled. "I hate her so fucking much, yet I can't deny that I love her. She put me through a lot and accused me of things I didn't do, so why do I feel so bad?" Naruto said, dropping his phone to the ground. "She asked me to come home, and you know what I told her." He said, looking at Hinata. She didn't get a chance to answer. "I told her to give me some time, and I'll be home tonight. Her feelings came second to yours. I can't deny my feelings for you and how bad I want to be with you, Hinata. Do you now understand why I left you the way I did?" His vision blurred. "I didn't want to hurt you because I was being indecisive, and I couldn't do that to Sakura after the years we've gone through together."

Hinata knew there wasn't much she could say to him. Did she feel bad for the other woman? No. Did that make her cold and selfish? Maybe. Maybe karma would get its payback, but she could only live in the moment. Her feelings continued growing for Naruto, and she didn't see them changing anytime soon.

"If you decide to leave me again, do it right," She finally spoke. "Don't you dare leave me the way you did? I want you to look me in my eyes, and tell me, Hinata, we should end this and stop all contact."

Naruto was taken aback by the boldness shown in her eyes. He couldn't even express himself the way Hinata did. This was probably why Sakura didn't see him much as a man.

"Maybe I am cold, or maybe my desires for you are so strong that I can't consider her feelings, but for you, I will. If… if you tell me now that you can't do this, I will leave a…." She choked. "I'll never look back." The tears ran down her rosy cheeks.

Hinata wiped her eyes when Naruto embraced her. To see the sadness he caused her broke his fragile heart even more. If only he had known he would have met Hinata in the future, he would have never fallen for Sakura. He would have waited patiently for the first snow to fall before slipping into that homely bakery.

Shikamaru warned him. He really did.

Naruto squeezed her tightly, kissing her forehead. "I know. I know." He said, rocking her side to side. "I won't leave you. I can't." She closed her eyes when Naruto gave her a big kiss on her cheek. "This is my first time feeling this way about another woman. P… please be patient with me."


As soon as the front door opened, Sakura jumped straight into Naruto's arm, crushing the flowers he had gotten her. "I miss you so much," she said, smothering him with kisses.

"I miss you too," he said, holding her carefully. "You're crushing the poor flowers," Naruto chuckled. She couldn't care about the flowers. She only cared about his safe return. He almost fell backward when Sakura tried to smother him.

"I really did miss you," he said, looking into her eyes. She went to kiss him on his neck, but he pulled back. "Why don't you put these in some vase while I look for a change of clothes?"

Sakura jumped off him and took the flowers from his hands. "I got some ramen from Ichiraku for you. I'll warm it up."

"Thank you," Naruto said, slipping into the bedroom. Pulling out his phone, he texted Hinata.

Naruto: I'm home. I'll see you tomorrow.

Hinata: I'm glad you're home, although I already miss you.

Naruto's heart skipped a beat reading her message.

Naruto: I already miss you, Hinata. I really do. I wish I was by your side right now, holding you.

Hinata: See me tomorrow at the bakery?

Naruto: I will. Good night, Hinata.

Hinata: Good night, Naruto.

While eating dinner, Sakura latched on to him, causing him to spill his drink and food from time to time. She didn't ease up, and this continued until they were in bed together. Even though he was with her, he felt so disconnected. His mind could only focus on Hinata and how lonely she probably was feeling alone in bed.

"Naruto," Sakura called out. "It's been a long time since we've done anything," she said in a suggestive tone.

"Why don't we spend some time together," He suggested.

"But it's been so long," Sakura rubbed his hand.

It would be impossible for him to do as Sakura requested. Not too long ago, before he came home, he and Hinata had a little fun per se. They were vulnerable, and emotions came over, thus leading to sex again. Sakura felt nauseous for some reason. Naruto was rejecting her. Did he not find her attractive anymore? Or did he…?

Sakura grabbed his hands, causing him to look into her green eyes. "I shouldn't have to beg."

Beg? He almost scoffed. Didn't she withhold sex from any time he came crawling to her? Why was it okay for her to say such a thing, but he couldn't? Maybe she was just as strong as Hinata in expressing her feelings, unlike him.

He looked over at Sakura, then he sighed softly. Was there any word to describe feeling worse than scum?

Sakura cuddled into Naruto's chest as she inhaled his scent. Presently, she felt safe in his arms. She didn't know why she waited so long, but Naruto always proved good at sex. He had her in different positions she'd never been in, and maybe he felt relief.

That was not the case. Naruto felt disgusted. No, disgusted was an understatement. As silly as it may sound, he felt he had cheated on Hinata by having sex with Sakura. Maybe this was becoming too much for the man to handle, but he was so over his head now.

How could he possibly satisfy two households?


"Bread, sugar, coffee," Naruto mumbled, looking over the list of items Sakura asked him to get. "I should probably get some fruits." "Didn't we have a stock load of coffee?" He hummed.

"When did you dye your hair, Mr. Namikaze?"

Naruto looked in front of him when he spotted the tall, handsome figure staring at him, shockingly. "Dr. Uchiha," he grinned once he recognized the man. "Yeah, I did. You like it?" He chuckled, striking a pose.

"I wouldn't have recognized you if I hadn't seen your eyes,"

He couldn't help but laugh. "At least that's one thing that didn't change about me, huh?"

"Sakura?" He didn't have to say anything for Sakura to know. "Woman. We live to please them, right?" He laughed. "Although I prefer you as a blonde, black looks good on you."

"Well, hearing you say that makes me believe that," Naruto said, chuckling. "What's your wife cooking for dinner tonight?" He asked, eyeing the man's trolley.

"Well, I'm going to be cooking a nice steak dinner with garlic mash potatoes," Sasuke said, grabbing some salt from the top shelf.

"No, Mrs.?" Naruto questioned shockingly.

Sasuke laughed when seeing the shocked look Naruto had on his face. "I'm not a committed kind of guy, if you know what I mean."

"You do have the looks," He pointed out.

"I don't have time to be tied down, so I don't see how you do it," Sasuke shrugged. "There are a lot of beautiful women out here, so I can't be bothered with one."

Naruto laughed. Well, he couldn't blame him too much. He wasn't tied down, nor did he seem to have feelings for anyone. He could do what he pleased.

"Well, I don't want to take up too much of your time," Naruto said. "Please take care," He bowed slightly.

"I have a feeling we'll meet again," Sasuke said, grinning. "Take it easy, Mr. Namikaze."


Ever since she met his wife, she had been showing up to the bakery when Ino was working. Usually, she would come in the right before closing and talk to Ino and her. Hinata didn't know if karma was coming after her, but perhaps it was making itself known.

They were sitting down and snacking on some miniature cookies left over.

"Are you still feeling nauseous?" Sakura asked.

Nodding her head, Ino placed down the cookie and sighed. "I'm not even two months yet, so why do I feel this way? I can't stand to smell my favorite perfume anymore."

"It'll get better. Make sure you're taking the pills your doctor prescribed,"

Ino groaned loudly, crossing her arms. "I'll be fine."

Hinata nibbled on the chocolate chip cookie, occasionally looking back and forth between Ino and Sakura.

"Well, at least be happy you're able to experience being pregnant," Sakura huffed. "I won't ever get to know the feeling."

"Is he still rejecting the idea?" Ino questioned, surprisingly.

"Yes! Sometimes I ask myself why I'm even with him," Sakura frowned. "Naruto has been acting suspicious."

Ino rolled her eyes because she could hear the accusation coming on.

"I'm serious!" Sakura said, glaring at Ino. "A few days ago, I went into the bathroom while he was drying off, and I saw these scratch marks on his back!"

Hinata almost choked on her cookie, which made Sakura look at her. "Exactly, Hinata! They looked fresh."

"So, you're saying he had sex with someone else, and they did it?" Ino almost scoffed.

"Why don't you believe me, Ino? A woman's intuition is never wrong." Sakura commented, folding her arms.

"Because you've been saying that ever since you two got together. We followed him the entire day, and he didn't do anything!" Ino threw her arms up.

Now Hinata understood everything Naruto was talking about. Why would he still get married to her if she had always accused him of doing such a thing? Just listening to them go back and forth sounded exhausting.

Sakura chewed down on her lip. "He isn't the same," She finally mumbled.

"I would think so, Sakura," Ino said, rolling her eyes. "You forced him to dye his hair black. You accuse him every chance you get, and you treat him like shit," She was beginning to get fed up with her best friend, and these new pregnancy hormones were not helping. Tears started to form in Sakura's eyes which made Ino sigh. "All I'm saying is you need to treat him with respect, Sakura. Naruto loves you; you know this. You need to go to therapy to find out why you're this way. It isn't healthy."

"I know," She mumbled.

"Am I being too harsh, Hinata?" Ino inquired.

"No," She replied softly.

"I'm trying," Sakura commented. "I do love him, but…." She quiet down. "I really was looking forward to having children with him, and now that'll never happen. My parents don't like him; we've been together for so long!"

"Your parents don't like him because he doesn't fit their ideology," Ino pointed out. "And from the looks of it, he doesn't fit yours."

"Why would you say such a thing?" Sakura snapped.

"Because you wouldn't treat him this way or agree with half the things your mom says about him!"

Sakura remained silent for the rest of the night. Ino was wrong, is what she kept telling herself.
