Sakura: Poor Tsunade so confused!
Naruto: YES! This is the chapters with lemons in right? RIGHT?
Sakura: *sigh* yes Naruto, but only a bit, I told you that already.
Naruto: ohh, well at least it's more interesting now!
Chapter 5 – Which path?
Picking up the nearest pile of papers she started her work on these first. They appeared to be D-rank missions.
"Okay lets see what we have here…" she pondered over the appropriate team for each mission "Alright…Babysitting Narusewa Mai's daughter…okay. Next is shopping with Khan Tohru. Next… GO TO JIRAIYA, GO TO JIRAIYA, GO TO JIRAIYA! AHHHhh!!! God damn it, I can't even do my work without thinking about you! I'm going to the Hokage Tower."
She stood up red faced with fury and ran all the way to the Tower. She got to the top panting slightly as fresh cool wind hit her face. Walking to the edge and leaning on the fence Tsunade sighed.
She looked out over the vast Konoha with sad eyes "Dan you wanted this so badly, to become Hokage and protect this land with all your strength. But I'm not as strong as you, looks like…for me it's the choice between: the protection of this land…or…Jiraiya" tears swelled in her eyes then proceeded to cascade down her cheeks.
"I see…" whispered Jiraiya from behind her.
Tsunade spun round in shock "Jiraiya!"
He looked very different from when she had seen him a few moments ago. He was wearing the same bloody clothing as before, but now his cocky grin, that she secretly loved, had been replaced by a face that seemed to know only sorrow.
"Do you really believe it has to be that way?"
She looked down hiding her face "Jiraiya…I…I know my duty, when I took this job I took the heavy burden that came with it too" wiping tears from her face she heard footsteps coming closer and looking up, Jiraiya was stood in front of her.
As he came closer into view, she saw that his now tied back hair was wet from an apparent shower, his bloody clothes were wrapped around his muscular figure and the moon put a brilliant glow to his eyes and skin. He was so intimidating; towering above her.
Tsunade's breath caught in her throat as a horror hit her: she was chakra depleted, pushed up against a fence and about four to five stories high. Even if she had the strength to punch him a mile so as to escape, she'd still have to jump off the roof to the ground; and with this little amount of chakra she couldn't guarantee for a 'healthy' landing. Any way she looked at it, she was trapped.
Jiraiya put his hand to her cheek wiping her tears "it doesn't have to be that way"
"Oh Jiraiya…" her hands clung to the fence as her knees were trembling and about to collapse beneath her. "Please…I…know what I have to do, as Hokage, but…I love you!"
Jiraiya needed nothing more. With those last three words his mind was no longer his own. His body took over; it was like a release that he had been begging for, for years. And like releasing the cork from a champagne bottle, emotion exploded. He wouldn't have been able to stop even if he'd wanted to.
So with that, Jiraiya now put both hands on her cheeks and kissed her passionately. Her eyes widened with slight shock but soon they closed with loving pleasure. His kiss was gentle at first as he tried his hardest to control the overwhelming feelings he had for her; his lips massaging hers softly. But as more emotion grew welling inside him, he kissed her more fiercely than he ever thought he would be able to. Being embraced in such emotion as well, she soon was caught up in the moment, and lost herself within it.
Tsunade was now running her slim fingers through Jiraiya's soft hair. Though he moved his hands lower instead, wrapping themselves around her waist and gripping tightly. Now however Jiraiya moved tenderly to her front cautiously, for fear of upsetting her and getting punched. His hands moved so softly over the fabric that it barely moved under his touch. Moving up over the large expanse of breast; feeling its warmth in his hands, he traveled to the small buttons barely holding in those large breasts. But as his fingers unbuttoned one out of the three he was pushed away.
"What's wrong?" asked a worried Jiraiya ready to dodge any flying punches coming his way. Looking at her, he saw that she was clinging to the fence with one hand again and touching her lips with the other. "What is it? Was I bad?"
Shaking her head "No…it's just that…this village…their last Hokage died so suddenly, they're scared and in need of protection…they can't have a distracted Hokage right now…"
Jiraiya took a step closer again, "They can't have a Hokage which is forced to have a heart of stone either."
Looking up to meet his eyes "they need me"
"So do I…" with that Tsunade looked at him with begging eyes "please Jiraiya, take me or leave me, but make the choice for me". With that, he carefully picked her up and bounded from the Tower and onto the surrounding roofs; he was heading for the village gates…
