Naruto: *blush*…

Chapter 6 – I loved you all along

Tsunade had wrapped her arms around his neck and was resting her head against his heart. As they jumped over the village walls and into the forest beyond it, Tsunade whispered, "where are we going?"

"Don't worry we're barely beyond the village gates. You said you wanted both…if it's an emergency we can go straight back…" he stopped and laid her down in the grass beneath a small canopy of trees, "but for now…the only two people who exist in the world, is you and me."

He sank to his knees and crawled to a position over her. "I love you Tsunade, and always have done" he sank in lower to kiss her gently on the lips. She closed her eyes and clung to him firmly "Tsunade, you don't have to keep that shield up when you're around me" she looked at him wide eyed.

Hhm…looks like he knows her better than she knows herself. He's right Tsunade, just do it.

"Just let me in, give me a chance" Jiraiya said with pleading eyes staring her down. After a moment she nodded, her hand relaxed and she closed her eyes. Jiraiya kissed her passionately as his hands undid the remaining buttons and only stopping their kiss as he pulled her shirt off over her head.

She was blushing madly, all those years of punching him away whenever he got close to her had made it more of a habit than actually wanting him to leave, and now she was fighting habit with desire. He smiled adoringly at her predicament but helped her desiring side win by kissing her on the lips then worked his way down to her cheek, then rested at her neck…
