Coming Home finally has its sequel! I know it's a little late, and things could have been done a lot earlier, but alas nobody can escape from real life, so everything is difficult. On with the story!

Two figures, midnight tresses flowed gently with the summer breeze, lit upon by the golden mane beside it. A step here, and a step there, and the two lovers arrived to a nearby inn, the steam from the hot springs confined by wooden walls made itself known among the many other pleasures that Hi no Kuni had to offer.
But one thing was certain. The small, gentle humming as their eyes would make contact every once in a short while. Their smiles worked their magic as they went past the counter, paying their stay as they strolled down the hall, key in hand.
Clothes were shed, and soon enough they found themselves relaxing in the waters of the hot springs, Satsuki's head leaned back to his shoulder as his arms wrapped around her midsection.
She tilted her head, catching his eye, smiling and laughing with him, huddling closer as a cold breeze swept along the waters.
"You know, I would have never guessed that you'd confess… not in a million years, Satsuki-chan." She turned, sitting in his lap as she gazed into his eyes, picking up each minute streak of color in his bright cerulean orbs, enamored.
"Yeah, and I'd never thought for a second that you felt the same way. I guess you could say… that I was preparing to die, that day." Satsuki let out a loud squeak as his lips connected with her own, his arms gripping her to his body, pressing, rubbing, and spreading not unlike a wildfire the sensation burning beneath the chest. Serenity could not describe the moment between the two lovers, no, any word was far too weak, too shallow.
He disconnected, holding himself rigid against the edge of the hot springs, pressing against every nook and cranny he could find, reveling in the hands that minutely stroked the strands of his hair, massaging his scalp. Every featherlight touch was heavier than the last. They both held back, panting for air as they calmed their racing hearts.
"I won't… I won't ever leave you alone." His forehead pressed flush against her own, almost as if the connection between them, drawing a conductor to convey his thoughts.
"I was so worried, Satsuki. That you'd never come back, drown yourself in revenge… or die before I could show you how much you mattered to me." His body might not have been, but his hands were shaking violently as they cusped her cheeks, leaving Satsuki rosy and a hunger budding beneath her gut.
"Not now, Naruto. Let's just… enjoy each other, okay?" His hands stilled as a gulp went down his throat, noticing through the odd sensations in his loins that he was very attracted to the woman in his lap, on that he had been admittingly chasing after for nearly a decade.
"Right…" He grunted painfully as they moved in too quick, teeth gnashing against each other in one of their more risqué attempts at setting the mood. They righted themselves, going forth once again, and their hands, feet, arms and legs; Not a single limb was spared from the near bliss of their coalescence into marital coitus. Such a thing almost seemed natural, and the steam rising steadily from the waters were enough to snap them back to reality. Naruto parted from Satsuki's waiting lips, firmly clutching the smaller woman in his arms as he nervously rose from the water. She questioningly looked at him, and he smiled with bated breath in return.
"Not here. I want us to be one in private, Satsuki-chan." The added suffix still brought blood to burn in her cheeks, enough that her face was hidden from view. Naruto's wet feel slopped against the rocks, only void of sound as he stepped onto the carpet of their shared room. Gently, he set her onto the bed, hands on either side of her body as they continued what had all but just started.
Against Satsuki's own, his lips were normally chapped and unruly, but he found time to correct that, much to her chagrin. Each caress, every grunt, moan, it all was erratic and without rhythm, much like how the two had originally started.
"N-Naruto…" His hand had moved on its own, grasping the soft, near gelatinous orb in his hand as the hardened nub rubbed against the rough surface of his palm. He almost immediately recoiled, catching surprise as her hand clasped about his wrist, pushing it further into her breast as it molded into his fingers.
"Satsuki?" She cracked open an eye, panting lightly with that ever-present smirk on her face, about as tense as one could be in such a situation.
"No more games… don't get cold feet right before we start." Naruto's blush brightened as the tip, which had been dragging about firmly lodged itself between her moistened petals. He gulped again as her legs brought him closer, and by his own aid he pushed inside, buried to the hilt in the warmth of the woman that he had craved for so long. She gasped, and tightened about like a cord of rope as she rose into his arms, biting into the blonde's neck as his hips slowly rocked back.
"It hurts…" Her breath was low and unreadable, coming between her teeth in a hiss as the pain ebbed away, throbbing in her core at the unfamiliar feeling. A spike of such caused her to cry out, and Naruto stopped nearly immediately, still firmly buried inside of her cavern.
"I-I'm sorry… I shouldn't have-"
"Keep moving, god damn it!" He replied with a short thrust, burrowing inside her at a calm, steady pace as she accommodated his girth, whimpering as the pain continued to fade. However painful it was for her, a smile was cleanly spread along her face, tears making it hard to read any thought inside the swirling pools of her coal eyes. He pushed her back against the soft comfort of the mattress, continuing on as they furiously locked the other's lips.
"S-Sah!" He tightened up, grunting as her hot, nearly steaming warmth tightened even further. They gasped, shaking lightly as they moved faster, silent in their embrace. Naruto groaned loudly, a deep growl calling forth from his throat as he picked up his pace, leaving the raven-haired beauty to gasp as sweat poured down the surface of her skin. It clung to every inch of her body, and she nearly crushed the wooden headboard from the overwhelming sensation.
"I'm… close… I'm going- hngh!" Naruto shuddered as he felt any pleasure in his body leave through the rushing flow of liquid that poured from his body, filling the honest vice that gripped his length. He fell forward, brows tightly knit together as his breath left in steam from the sudden temperature difference.
He fell from her side, pulling her into him once more as his nose buried itself into Satsuki's sweat-filled locks of midnight blossom hair.
"Thank you, Satsuki." She giggled lightly, cringing in pain as any strength she had left whisked from her body in the next of her labored breathing. Naruto's chest heaved at her back, falling into a steady rise and fall of his light snoring.
"Baka… you're the only one for me, you know?" She quickly succumbed to sleep, pulling the comforter over their forms as she too, also slept beside the comfort of her husband. Both wore smiles in their sleep, gentle enough that even the fox in his gut couldn't help but purr in delight at his own slumber, darkness invading and washing away the fear of his jailor.
Yes, it was indeed a special night, and one not easily forgotten or remembered. Like a wildfire, their love was wild and untamed, the efforts and bond burning bright beneath the embers of their unique circumstance to their eventual unity. Of course, life had many ups and downs, but it only ever had one climactic finish that redefined the path we took. Naruto and Satsuki now knew that better than anyone.

The sequel to their cutesy little one-shot is finally here, and they're absolutely fantastic. I wrote this with one song in mind, called My Soul, Your Beats, a familiar tune we all cherished if you like a good romance. It helped bring a lot of inspiration to finally work on this piece, and the way it turned out, I have no regrets. Have an absolutely wonderful day, all of you.
