After getting dressed Naruto and Hinata went to grab food. Naruto was sore so the two flashed to Ichiraku's for some ramen. Naruto ordered multiple bowls for himself and Teuchi grinned happily making it for his favorite customer, while also cooking Hinata's order. Ayame stood and talked to Naruto and Hinata as they sat, sipping on water.
"So, you two are finally together?" Ayame asked the couple.
Naruto looked to Hinata, unsure of what the girl would say, she smiled at him and responded, "We are dating. We are technically engaged actually. What did you mean by finally?"
Ayame was shocked, "WHAT! WHEN DID YOU TWO GET ENGAGED?"
Hinata giggled, "Well I didn't have much of a say, not that I would say no to Naru, aparently our fathers' had an agreement together, after I was…taken, Naruto was informed by my father and then I was later informed by my sister about their agreement…At first I wasn't sure about it. I was upset that Neither of them told me, my insecurities got the best of me. However, everything is great now, Naru has always been here for me."
Ayame nodded, "Naruto, you finally have her huh?"
Naruto nodded and grinned, "Yeah, I finally do have her, for now, but the fight isn't over yet Ayame."
Hinata looked at him confused, "Naru, you have me, I am yours. There is no battle left, what are you talking about?"
Naruto sighed, "You think the Hyuga elders are going to just let you marry anyone you want Hinata? Your father and mine had an agreement but it won't hold much weight if your clan votes against it. Which they can do. It's why we aren't going to publicly announce anything. It's why you didn't immediately come to live with me, after they attacked you and made you vulnerable at any time to any of them, your father brought you to my house because I am the only one he thought that could truly protect you. He didn't at first because he thought he could protect you in his house. I'm sorry to break this to you Hina, but I don't want to lie to you about it."
Hinata bit her lip, Naruto could tell she was highly conflicted, but she sighed and nodded, "So what do we do?"
"We play the politics, make plans with your father, and become as powerful as we can, make it so they can't stop us. If need be I will do everything I have to in order to keep you." Naruto told her.
Hinata nodded, a new sense of determination in her eyes, Ayame on the other hand was appalled, "Naruto what the hell are you talking about?"
"The Hyuga elders want to make Hinata their puppet. They have never liked her, they have always wanted to just be able to marry her off to some foreign land for power. They found out that she gave up information about the clan to Orochimaru and it made them hate her more. They branded her with a Caged Bird seal so they could force her to do whatever they wanted. I will not let that happen." Naruto told her, watching as Hinata hung her head in shame.
"Hinata, you didn't do anything wrong, they would have broken anyone." Naruto told her firmly.
Hinata nodded, "They wouldn't have broken you, or Anko, or Kakashi. They didn't break your mother."
Naruto sighed, "You don't know if he broke my mom or not. He broke Anko. He broke Kakashi. He broke me, he broke all of us Hinata, when he had you, I broke. When he crippled Anko her broke her, and when he broke Anko it broke Kakashi. He broke Shikamaru when he stole you his sister away, and I left. He broke us all Hinata, and none of us blame you."
Hinata still didn't look up, "He didn't get any of you to talk Naruto. He didn't pull clan secrets out of you guys."
Naruto nodded, "Hinata, you told him what you told them to survive."
Hinata shook her head, "Can we please stop talking about it for now?"
Naruto nodded and Ayame apologized to Hinata the three of them continued to talk and eat with Teuchi joining them for a while.
After dinner, they left and Naruto flashed them home. Naruto arrived their house and sat on the bed, still fairly tight from the paralysis drug he had been given. Hinata sat down next to him, "Do you want to keep talking about Orochimaru?"
Naruto nodded, "If you're okay with it then sure. Hina, you told him what you did because you had to survive."
Hinata shook her head, "No…I did it to make the pain stop, my life wasn't in jeopardy, I just needed the pain to stop. They tortured me, and I told them what they wanted to know. I was weak, I just needed the pain to stop. That first day I was there, I relive it all the time. They gave me the serum that made me much more susceptible to the pain."
Naruto put his hand on her shoulder, "I remember, Tsunade had to pull it out of you."
Hinata nodded, "Every scrape hurt so much Naru…Please please understand Naru, I had never been in so much pain, under so much stress, the waterboarded me, they stuck needles under my fingernails, they cut me, they beat me, and I just needed the pain to stop. So, I told them what they wanted to know. Naru I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Hinata broke down, tears were rolling down her face as she looked to Naruto, her eyes begging him to understand.
Naruto wrapped her up in a hug, "Hinata, nobody blames you, I don't blame you. I know if you gave it up, you didn't have a choice. I still love you, don't worry about that."
Hinata sniffled and cuddled into Naruto, still not understanding why he accepted her, he would have never talked. The two stayed there for a while and Naruto held her tightly as she cried thinking about the things done to her.
After an hour of this she looked up at Naruto and she gave him a quick kiss on the lips. He grinned at her and ran his hand through her hair kissing her forehead, "Everything is okay Hina."
Hinata stood and pulled Naruto up and told him, "It is now, or close enough. Are you still feeling sore?"
Naruto nodded and Hinata grinned, "Let's go to the hot springs and I can help ease all the tension."
Naruto raised an eyebrow, "Oh? And how are you going to do that?"
Hinata grinned, leaning up to his ear she whispered, "You let me worry about that."
Naruto laughed and nodded, sure why don't we head down there then he grinned and flashed them down to the basement to their hot springs.
Hinata undressed herself as Naruto did the same, though he kept a close eye on her and grinned as he saw her naked body. He slowly climbed into the hot spring sighing in relief as he did, his muscles relaxing finally as he let the hot water wash across him.
Hinata followed him in blushing as he turned to look at her, his eyes taking in her body. "Naru, is everything okay?"
Naruto grinned and took a large step closing the distance, taking her in his arms and capturing her lips in his own. They made out for a moment, Naruto's hands staying on her hips as he kissed her. Finally Hinata pulled back and spun Naruto around, pushing him down to his knees gently as she began to massage his shoulders, trying to help him loosen up even more. Naruto sighed, he was in absolute heaven as he twisted his head back and looked up at Hinata, she leaned down and kissed him once more, her hands sliding down feeling his arms.
Out of nowhere there was a puff of smoke and Hinata shot away from Naruto, she immediately was in her fighting stance but when she saw who it was she just blushed. Naruto was blushing too, "Kurama what are you doing here?" Naruto asked her as he sunk down into the water.
"Well I came to see how you two were doing, I finally recovered enough from that stupid unsealing process. I will really be able to start fast track healing that wound of yours. It will take about three days." Kurama told them.
Naruto nodded, "It's good to have you back, I can already feel your chakra seeping into me healing everything, making me stronger."
Kurama laughed, "I see you two are moving rather quickly, naked together in the hot springs?"
Naruto and Hinata both blushed as they struggled to find something to say, "We weren't doing anything…" Naruto told her embarrassed.
Kurama laughed at that, "And why not? The two of you are betrothed, not to mention you are mates, you have every right to do things with one another. You certainly shouldn't be embarrassed about it, you two have been kept apart long enough. I'm not telling you to rush it if you aren't ready, adding the intimacy of having sex into a partnership can bring strain on it, it can bring a tough element into everything. However, if it is the right time it will bring you closer together than ever before. Sex with your partner, with your mate, is better it's so much better than something meaningless. Don't waste more time waiting if you are ready, you two deserve to be happy together after everything the two of you have had to go through. After all the burdens, you have had to bare. Let yourselves be happy Naruto, Hinata, I love you both, my students, my kin."
Hinata nodded, she had inched closer to Naruto, and was holding his hand under the water, "Kurama, thank you, but I'm not ready for that yet."
Naruto squeezed her hand, letting her know that she had his backing.
Kurama nodded, "We have a lot of work to do Naruto, Tobi will be coming back, the Akatsuki will be back for me and you need to train, they have stronger members than Kakuzu."
Naruto got serious, "I know that Kurama, Tobi was out of my league and there are members as strong as him if not stronger."
Hinata began to worry now, "Naruto what are you talking about?"
"Tobi wasn't using his full power when we fought, not even close, I could feel it. I don't know why but he was holding back." Naruto told the both of them, "However we hurt them, they won't be back for a while, they can't afford to come after this village with the ninja I have backing me, they don't stand a chance unless they are at full strength and find new members, we bought ourselves time to get stronger. Which is what we are damn sure going to do."
Kurama nodded, "Hinata you need to get stronger, I need your body to be much much stronger if you want to be able to withstand my training."
Hinata nodded, "I'll work even harder."
Kurama laughed, "Good, if you are going to help me protect Naruto, you will need that kind of resolve. Naruto is the chosen one, the child of prophecy, he will save this world, but he can't do it alone, that's what you and I are here for."
Hinata and Naruto both nodded, Kurama stayed with them and continued to talk to them for a while until they got out, Naruto feeling much better already.
Hinata and Naruto headed to Kakahsi's house determined to tell them Naruto would be ready in less than a week.
Kakahsi opened the door after hearing a knock, he was surprised to see Naruto and Hinata so soon after their double date last night. "Naruto, Hinata, come on in, what can I do for you?"
Naruto looked at him grinning, "I'll be ready soon, give me a week and we unseal Anko. You ready Kakashi?"
Kakashi gave him a determined look, "I'm ready whenever you are."
