Hey reader here is the next chapter of this story. And I just have to say that if you want a class to help write these stories you can take a writing class for the idea but a keyboarding class helps so much with writing these. I mean before I took keyboarding I had to look at the keys and typed really SLOW though now I can write one of these is a fraction of the time. So, basically if you have a chance to you may want to take it; and the sooner the better seeing as it will help you with so much of your life.

I don't own Naruto

Chapter 12

While Naruto was meeting his newest sensei Sasuke already was making a decent amount of progress in learning a new jutsu from Kakashi. Or was until his chakra started to get dangerously low making him have to take a break. A break he was just getting back from when all of a sudden, he was caught by a snake quickly wrapping itself around his body. "What the hell?" Sasuke quickly yells out annoyed and surprised but then began to struggle to free himself. Though he only tried to escape for a few seconds before a pale figure came out of the ground in front of Sasuke.

"Hello Sasuke-kun." The pale man greeted the still trapped boy.

"Free me from this!" Sasuke ordered the pale man feeling no need to be polite.

"Now I can't do that Sasuke-kun. Not while you are being held back by Konoha. For even if they are letting you get a bit stronger, they will never get you to the point you need to be to kill your brother. After all he was one of their best even though he mostly trained himself. But I assure you that a legendary sannin like me would easily be able to train you to be stronger than Itachi could even imagine being. And all you have to do is leave this village and come with me to my village." The pale man told Sasuke then released the boy from the snake's hold. Course after he did this Sasuke began to walk back to his home to prepare for his journey when the man stopped him. "Not now Sasuke-kun. I will send a team to pick you up after the chunnin exam so I can see what skills you already possess. So, for now train hard and take any of Konoha's strong jutsus when you can but know that your true sensei; Orochimaru will be watching from the shadows." Orochimaru tells Sasuke who nods understanding him but soon after screams in pain as his neck was bit. "Take this; my elite soldier's mark as a taste of the power I will be giving you." Orochimaru adds then quickly disappears into the ground as Sasuke passes out due to the pain. Meanwhile Orochimaru reappears in the shadow of a nearby tree.

"Lord Orochimaru if you were going to give him a mark and just leave him why did you not just give it to him in the forest of death?" Kabuto, Orochimaru's right hand man asks clearly curious.
"Because Kabuto if I did that then the forest would have probably killed him if the seal didn't thanks to his team. For I know that I would have probably had to knock out Sasuke with the curse mark and Naruto with some seal. So, all they would have to protect themselves from the forest would have been the weak pink haired girl. Also, I would have had to give away the secret that I am here due to all the extra chakra I would have had to use. And also, now we can clearly see the results of the seal as it happens." Orochimaru explains to the boy who nods his head showing that he understood and they both used jutsus to hide themselves and simply watched over Sasuke's still knocked out body. Course eventually the day gave way to night and they had to bring Sasuke's still knocked out body to his house while still making sure that no one saw them. So, in the end Sasuke unknowingly had two older men hidden in his room watching him as he slept through the night; one of which wanted his body. Meanwhile Kakashi read his book in their training area until the evening not even noticing the time pass until it became dark.

"Hmm, it seems Sasuke-san couldn't regain enough chakra to train more today just as I thought…he must be sleeping off a mild case of chakra exhaustion by now." He thought putting his book away not at all worried about the broody teen.

_Naruto; same evening_

Jiriaya eventually managed to get Naruto to listen to him after promising to pay for his ramen. Now, of course after Naruto's sixth bowl he was starting to regret his decision but seeing as he was rich enough to basically buy his own village, he found it a worthy cause to use money to try and fill the bottomless pit Naruto called a stomach. Course he didn't actually get to talk to Naruto too much until Naruto started slowing down at his tenth bowl. "So, ero-sennin you still want to help me train for the exams?" Naruto asks seeing as he already told Jiriaya that he would never use that jutsu again.

"Yea, gaki I the mighty sannin Jiriaya will be training you for the whole month so that you can kick ass." Jiriaya told Naruto happily.

"Okay, then ero-sensei let's start training!...or at least start tomorrow seeing as it is a bit late even for me." Naruto told Jiraya in-between mouthfuls of ramen.

"Yup, starting tomorrow around 10 am we will go through tons of good stuff. Like some taijutsu, ninjutsus, and most importantly I will make sure you begin to appreciate the work I do on my books." Jiriaya told him handing Naruto an Ichia Ichia book. Course Naruto didn't have it in his hand for too long before a cleaver slammed into the book making a surprised Naruto drop it letting the cleaver slam it down to the table. After the shock wore off both males looked up at the attacker and saw Ayame with a falsely sweet smile on her face.

"I hope you didn't plan on reading books like that Naruto-kun." She told Naruto with a sinister aurora around her that caused said boy to sweat a bit but thankfully she turned the full power of the look over to Jiriaya and seemed to almost increase the intensity of it. "And I hope that you didn't plan on turning him into a pervert Jiriaya-sama" she told the old man making sure to still give the proper respect to the sennin.

"No, I would never do that." Jiriaya lied to the girl simply trying to get her to stop giving him the aurora of death treatment that all angry girls seemed to automatically know. "…though seeing as I need to use his CRA as a new series I will have to bring him to my side eventually." Jiriaya mumbled out afterward quiet enough so that she wouldn't hear him but sadly she still was glaring at him. Course this whole time Ayeme's father was simply watching with a chuckle seeing as he already knew of Ayame's crush on his blond customer and knew he would treat her right. So, rather than be mad at the fact that a man might take his little girl away from him he simply got to laugh at the fact that Ayame is trying to keep him as the 'perfect boyfriend' she imagines he is. Meaning that he has to be kind, caring, and most of all not a pervert; and the only one she ever has to worry about is him turning into a pervert. After all, even after all the boy had gone through he still seems to truly enjoy doing the right thing.

Course after Ayame's attack on the perverted book was over the meal was basically done so Naruto and Jiriaya left and went their separate ways; well after Jiriaya paid for the thirty+ bowls of ramen that Naruto ate.

"Minato, I may not have been the best person to pick as Naruto's godfather and I know that I failed my duties for his childhood but I plan on doing everything I can to help him now that I am around him. So, I will help him become the ninja that both you and Kushina would want him to be…though I still am going to make him a pervert. I mean just because I failed with you doesn't mean that I will with your son. After all he already has the CRA meaning that he can flirt and have sex with as many girls as he wants….well and not be looked at as a complete player anyways. Still I have no doubt that his life story will make me millions when I implement him into a new series. "The lustful ninja and his kunoichi"…book 1-5." Jiriaya though happily talking to both himself and a mental image of his dead student as he walked to his base of operations that was in Konoha; which basically was what he used as a house. Just because he wouldn't be in the village enough to truly enjoy the pleasure of simply living in one location; so if he got a house most of the time it would just collect dust.

_Naruto_

When Naruto finally got home, he was exhausted and just wanted to go to bed but that went away fast when something pieced the wall next to him as soon as he closed the door to his house.

"Naruto-sama why were you gone all day and didn't even attempt to notify me. I mean just because my goal is simply to help you doesn't mean you can just not let me know what is going on." Haku told Naruto giving off the same aurora as Ayame did. "After all I haven't really seen you too much since the test started; well when you weren't ready to kill anything that breathed anyways…" Haku told him seeing as she did miss seeing him when he was at the test; which was only increased seeing as she was worried about his well-being. In fact this worry kept her from truly relaxing for the entire test. So, she was ready to simply spend a day with her 'master' as soon as she could; meaning the fact that she didn't seem him at all until at night even more infuriating.

"S-sorry Haku-chan I just had a lot going on today." Naruto told her a bit afraid but truly sorry that he didn't even think about checking up on Haku. "I really should have thought about how nervous you must have felt throughout the test but yet I didn't even think about it. Please forgive me Haku-chan." Naruto told her feeling extremely bad and knew he had to make it up to her. "I know I will spend all the time I am not training with my sensei tomorrow with you and the first free day that both of us get we will spend together to make up for today okay?" Naruto asks practically begging her to say it would be okay with his expression.

Now that expression alone was able to melt away the girl's anger rather quickly as she thought about his offer course that made a blush form on her face. "A free day of with Naruto-sama…all the stuff we could do like a d-d-date or something. Ah, maybe a nice meal or a walk through nature or.." Haku began thinking completely forgetting about her rage as she planned a day with her 'master' ; leaving out some more perverse thoughts for when they were closer to each other. After all they weren't even dating or anything…simply because Naruto is still very naïve about girls even with them trying to fix it.

"Fine, Naruto-sama, I will forgive you if we do spend a full day together as soon as possible." Haku told her roommate/crush.

"Thank you Haku-chan" Naruto told her smiling then came up with another idea as well. "Tell you what you can even start calling me Naruto-san or kun instead of sama." Naruto told her hoping to trick her into stop calling him her master. Course this just makes Haku look at Naruto for a few moments before responding.

"…why should I ever stop calling my master by his title?" she asks him partially serious and partially calling him –sama just to annoy him.

"But I am not…I already told you….whatever." Naruto mumbles out deciding it wasn't worth trying to get her to change her mind seeing as he had a good feeling that it was a worthless cause anyways. So, after their conversation was finally over Naruto quickly took a shower to get the grim off of his body and went under his beds covers wearing only his boxers.

+1 hour 10 minutes later+

Naruto was still trying to fall asleep seeing as while his mind was tired is body still was filled with energy…like always. So, he was simply lying there waiting for sleep to take him when he heard the door open up. So, he instantly looked over to it and had a large blush quickly form upon his face. For even in the dark he could see Haku standing there in only her undergarments and a see-through nightgown.

"H-haku-chan what are you doing here?" Naruto asks with the blush never leaving his face.

"I couldn't sleep Naruto-sama; I had a nightmare where you died out in that test and left me all alone." Haku told him.

"But Haku-chan you know that I didn't; I mean I am right here." Naruto told her trying not to look at her body too much.

"Yes, but what if this is all a dream?" I mean how do I know that this is real?" she asks him looking worried. Course this just caused Naruto to sigh and motion her to come closer; and when she did Naruto surprised her by grabbing her waist and pulled her close to him and put her head on his chest.

"There does this feel false to you?" Naruto asked the now blushing girl.

"No" she told him then snuggled closer to him causing them both to blush more.

"Good then sleep well Haku-chan" Naruto told her bringing the blanket over both of them and tried to fall asleep finding it easier now that he had Haku's body heat next to him; even if it was a bit less than normal people's.

"Ah, this is so comfortable, I could get used to this" Haku thought as she felt at peace listening to her crush's heartbeat. "And the best part is that he is starting to let us in even more." She added happily and then let Naruto's heartbeat lull her to sleep.

+Next Morning+

As birds chirping voices were beginning to be heard through the wall Haku began to wake up. Though when she did she found that she didn't want to leave her warm bed or her comfortable pillow seeing as she grew to love its heartbeat…. Course when she realized this she quickly tensed up until she remembered that she spent the night with Naruto and relaxed again. Course now that she was fully awake she noticed the fact that she pressed herself as close to his side as she possibly could and she also noticed that Naruto's arm came down around her holding her firmly against himself even tighter. So, not looking a gift horse in the mouth Haku began to simply enjoy where she was with a light blush on her happy face. Course this blush increased even more when she accidentally brushed her leg against Naruto's crotch and felt his hardness. Now she was contemplating 'accidentally' checking his size until she noticed he was starting to wake up and quickly pretended to be asleep.
So, when Naruto woke up he instantly noticed not only that Haku was squished to his side but also due to the fact that he was hugging her extremely close to his side. But the thing that made him blush the most was realizing that one of Haku's legs was extremely close to his morning wood that refused to go away; course the fact that he could feel her smooth and soft skin didn't help at all. Though he couldn't deny the fact that it was nice to be near one of the girls that were precious to him. Course even if it was someone that he held precious he still was happy that she was asleep so that she wouldn't hurt him for the predicament they were in; after all no matter why or who it was girls tended to attack whatever put them in what they considered a perverse position. So, he quickly moved his hand and gently moved himself away from Haku so that there was some distance between them before gently shaking said girls shoulder trying to wake her up.

"Good morning Haku-chan did you sleep well" Naruto told her after he 'woke' her up. Course he was pretending that they never were in the predicament that he found himself in earlier not knowing that she was the one who woke to it first.

"Yea" She told him trying to hide the light blush of embarrassment she had seeing as she nearly got caught looking at something that Naruto probably wouldn't want her to see; at least for a while if she had anything to say about it.

"Good, and I hope you don't get another dream like that ever again. But if you do I promise that I will always be there to help you get over it even if I have to crawl back from the depths of hell." Naruto told her causing her to feel true happiness due to him saying that he would always be there for her.

"Thank you Naruto-sama. Now let's get ready for the day shall we seeing as you have training to prep for." Haku told him who nodded and they both got out of bed and after a getting over the surprise of seeing each other nearly naked they went to change meaning that Haku had to leave to go to her side of the apartment.

"Man, thank God my boner finally went away before Haku-chan could see. I mean that would have been just too embarrassing even for me." Naruto thought to himself slightly surprised about the last part seeing as he tried to never get embarrassed; still after this quick mental rant was over Naruto quickly got changed and left his room to wait for Haku to be done and to cook breakfast.

Meanwhile Haku was in her own room happily getting changed while she was thinking about what happened as well. "Ah, that was nice. Not only did master seem to enjoy my company but I also got to at least enter his bed. And with that first step done he is on his way to being willing to 'play around' a bit later on. Then he will be the perfect boyfriend for me!...well for any girl really but hopefully I get added to my master's plans" she thought hoping that Naruto would pick her as well. Now while she wasn't exactly a pervert; she like most girls had several ideas about the perfect husband, and sex was one of the factors that most people took into consideration. After all if you have to stay with them you want to make sure that they can please you in all ways.

Anyways after they both were dressed, they ended up sitting at a table waiting for one of Naruto's clones to bring them breakfast seeing as the blond apparently got fed up with waiting for her to cook. Course when it finally came up to them it was several cups of instant ramen which made Haku just stare in disbelief at both the Naruto she was sitting next to and also the one putting the cups onto the table.

"Um, Naruto-sama you do realize that ramen isn't a breakfast food right?" Haku asks Naruto surprised by his choice. Course while she asks this Naruto was already happily eating the eight bowls, he had the clone make leaving the last two for Haku seeing as he knew that she wouldn't eat as many as he would.

"Why not? Ramen is Kami's food meaning that it is good enough to eat at any time." Naruto told her like it should have been the most obvious fact in the world. Now this surprised said girl seeing as she knew he had an addiction but didn't think that it was that bad.

"Is this really all you ever eat?"

"Yea, most of the time."

"But how do you get enough nutrients from just that?"

"Uh, I guess from my bloodline maybe or maybe because of my seal?"

"….okay Naruto-sama even though you are training for the chunin exams you will spend some time each day learning about how to eat right and cook stuff other than ramen." Haku told the kid who looked devastated.

"but can't I just have ramen?"

"No"

"…I thought that I was the 'master' here."

"You are but I will not have my master die just because he didn't take care of himself. I mean just think how would your precious people feel if you got sick or something because you didn't eat right."

"…fine I will try to eat 'better' I guess." Naruto told her upset but at least understanding her point. And with that being finally decided Haku left to cook a good breakfast while Naruto ate the rest of the ramen not wanting to waste any of it.

(basically although I have Naruto act differently it is only when he is serious or it is an important time. Other than that he will be a bit goofy just because no one can hate a loveable goofball. Also all the jutus Naruto made and all the experiences he had before the land of wave mission is the same although it won't really matter all that much except for Konohamaru and the group because ya gotta love the annoying brats)

=after Haku's healthier breakfast=

When both of them were done eating Naruto left the house explaining that he needed to restock his equipment for any possible training that he would be getting in only a few hours; which of course reminded him to tell her that he was going to be off training for an undetermined amount of time. Course when he left Haku found herself with nothing to do seeing as she had already cleaned and didn't have to work so she decided to simply find one of the girls she was introduced to and hang out with them seeing as she still wasn't completely used to having the ability to relax for a while seeing as she was on the run for basically all of her life and because she didn't have a mother figure to copy habits from like most girls. So, she basically was trying to teach herself how to relax and have fun like a normal girl seeing as all she knew to do with her time always had an importance to them rather than for enjoyment. (cleaning, cooking, training, ect.)

~Hyuuga clan~

After getting through the gate Haku instantly felt something felt something watching her but she simply ignored it seeing as she did come unannounced to a major clan. So, instead of worrying about the guard that had to be following her she simply went to see the person she wanted to. So, she quickly went to said person's room, knocked before finally entering after being allowed in.

"Hello Hinata." She greeted her friend who was still stuck in her bed recovering while three women sat around her.

"Oh, hey Haku-san what brings you here?" Hinata responds even now a bit shyly.

"Nothing much just came to see one of my few friends in Konoha seeing as I have a day off and nothing to do." Haku told the girl truthfully.

"Ah, I see but come on you have to have something that you want to do." HInata told the girl shocked that Haku had no idea what to do with a day off; even if she was grateful for the girl visiting her.

"No, besides checking up on you I have no idea what I want to do. I mean I don't have to cook, the cleaning is all done, and I still can't train in regular ninja arts other than to keep in shape for a while." Haku told her friend.

"Well then if your work is all done then maybe you should find a hobby or something."

"a hobby? Might as well, so what would you suggest?" Haku asks her friend. Course this made Hinata briefly think of her old hobby of stalking…watching over Naruto causing her to blush a bit. "Well just do something that brings you happiness. Like Ino enjoys flowers and gardens, Tenten likes weapons and forges weapons/sharpens weapons, even Sakura likes knowledge and reads. Basically just find one of the things that make you happy and do something that involves it." Hinata explains yet still carefully leaving out one of her more secretive hobbies.

"Something I like…" Haku then mumbles thinking for a few moments before putting it to the back of her mind and simply visited for a bit. Now of course half way through this Naruto showed up as well just to check up on his girlfriend and to spend some time with her during a break in training. Though their time was wrecked when Neji was brought up by one of Hinata's caregivers due to an accidental slip of the tongue.

"I still say I should just kill that bastard." Naruto growled out still annoyed.

"Naruto-kun you promised that-" Hinata told Naruto until he interrupted her.

"I know I promised not to. But he almost killed my hime. I can't just let him get away with it." Naruto told her making Hinata blush at Naruto calling her his princess. Though she did also notice Haku's brief glare at her that was filled with jealousy though it was hidden almost as quickly as it appeared. "I have to at least punish him for what he has done, so what do you suggest I do? Besides beating the tar out of him of course." Naruto asked his girlfriend who just barely put her thoughts about Haku aside just in time to hear him.

"Well Naru-kun I think just beating him would be enough if you really feel the need to punish him. Just don't hurt him too badly, please he is family." Hinata told Naruto who was momentarily shock.

"Hinata just because he is your family doesn't mean he can automatically be forgiven. In fact it means that he shouldn't have done it in the first place." Naruto told her completely believing his own words seeing as it was basically partially apart of his own code of life.

"…Yea I suppose you are right…though he had to have some reason to. After all the main and branch family never have been really on good terms. With the branch being basically slaves after all…well at least until I can change that." Hinata explains frowning due to the way her family works; which was one of the reasons she had a dream of fixing it.

"Bah, even if the family is at each other's throats he still shouldn't have a good reason to hurt my hime." Naruto told her still annoyed seeing as he believed that no one should be allowed to hurt his girlfriend no matter what the reason. Course after Naruto told them this he finally looked over at the clock and saw that it was about time for him to meet back with Jiriaya. "Well sorry to say it but I have to go now. See you gals later." Naruto told them giving Hinata a kiss on the cheek then quickly left to find his teacher, leaving Hinata behind who was blushing quite a bit.

"Well looks like someone brought their relationship to the next level" Hikari told the group giggling due to Hinata's reaction. Course this passed after about a minute and Hinata managed to recover from her blush after several deep breaths.

"Okay Hikari, Sari, Akari can you please leave the room for a few moments. I wish to talk to Haku-san privately for a moment" Hinata told the three women who respectfully did as she asked. "Now Haku you love Naruto-kun don't you?" Hinata asks her friend though it sounded more like a statement than a question.

"H-hai" Haku nervously answered knowing she was caught. Course this soon turned into shock when she heard Hinata's next statement.

"Then why don't you go try to get him? I mean we both know he is in the CRA program and has to be with several girls. So, as long as the girls like him for him rather than for his clan or something else he has then I am okay with them trying to get Naruto-kun's attention… Though I want all of his first times." Hinata told the girl not wanting anyone else to take the special bonding moments that she felt was destined to happen between them.

*sigh* "Yea I guess you are right I mean the worst thing that could happen would simply be him not returning the feelings but then he still would be my master and me his slave; though it would be nice to be his mistress." Haku added in with a small smile already thinking of Hinata as Naruto's true wife and her as the mistress. Seeing as she never was anything but submissive; after all she calls the boy her master. Course what neither of the girls realized was that there was another girl listening in on their conversation.

_Hanabi; outside Hinata's door_

"What does sis and this other girl see in this one boy? This requires more research, starting with finding exactly why Hinata-neesan loves this guy so much even though he can and will cheat on her." Hanabi thought then quickly left to look for information on her knew subject of interest.

And there this chapter is done as well. And I really do think that these chapter are coming out quite well now. Oh, by the way while I don't know when I will actually do one please do not automatically expect a lemon scene anytime soon. Especially since I don't write too many of them seeing as I think that if there is too many then the story is simply about the lemons rather than the plot. Also I don't think Hanabi is going to be in this harem seeing as I kind of want to use her as another younger sister relationship that Hinata and Naruto will both get; though I will put up a poll to get your opinion on this seeing as it shouldn't be too hard to try to write. Though no matter what is decided she won't be used too muchin this story for a while seeing as the chunin exams need to be the focus for a while. Anyways Ja Ne.
