Naruto and Sakura's Twelfth Anniversary Chapter 2--Young at Heart, a naruto fanfic

Hello everybody, thesaiyanjedi here with the next chapter of "Naruto and Sakura's Twelfth Anniversary."

Sorry this chapter took a while to get out, the last week was a really difficult on for me and my family, for a number of reasons...Actually, this entire year has been really rough, but I digress. A lot of the ideas for this chapter came from advise given to me by my friend samuraipanda85. I hope that he, and all of you guys, are satisfied with the result.

With that said, lets get to reading!

Chapter 2: Young at Heart

"Jeez, look at this line."

Naruto and Sakura were standing outside of Club Tobirama's. He was dressed in a pair of slacks and an open black blazer, which revealed the orange dress shirt he wore underneath. She was dressed in a red dress with a golden necklace with an emerald stone in the middle, a present he had gotten for her last Christmas.

The club itself was a fairly straightforward place with a simple square structure, but the entrance was highlighted by two large pillars with creature decals. Specifically there were four beasts that decorated them: a black tortoise, a blue dragon, a red phoenix, and a white tiger. Naruto recalled seeing a mural of these creatures inside of Hashirama's restaurant before as well...

The front sign and archway surrounding the door of this club was flashing with multicolor neon lights. This made it no secret that this was a night club in every sense of the word. Drinks, dancing, loud music, flashing lights, the works.

Sakura frowned as she could not help but agree with her husband's complaint. "How much longer do you think we'll be out here?"

"No idea." He turned to her, "We can try somewhere else if you want?"

"I don't mind...yet. Lets give them another thirty minutes and then we can try somewhere else."

"Fair enough."

It was exactly that long that they were kept waiting. By the time they made it to the entrance, the bouncer nearly lost his mind when he saw them.

"Holy shi—! Um, I mean, Lord Seventh Hokage! Lady Sakura! Welcome to Club Tobirama's! We do apologize for keeping you both waiting for so long."

Naruto answered for them both in the most modest tone he could muster. "That's quite alright. Do we pay out here or inside?"

"There's a cashier inside my lord, 500 ryo a person." The bouncer suddenly got nervous. "...Of course, if you'd prefer, I'm sure the owner would be willing to cut the price for the Hokage—"

"That won't be necessary, please. We'll just head inside now, thank you."

The bouncer nodded and opened the door. The place was very darkly lit and the music was very, very loud. The cashier was sitting behind a box at a desk with a cash register sitting on it. The cashier was a younger woman with some rather garish looking hair and piercings on her ears, nose and left eyebrow.

'Teenagers these days,' Sakura frowned.

"'Sup?" the cashier said rather rudely as she was filing her nails and chewed on a wad of gum.

"Two please?" Naruto asked.

"1,000 ryo." Naruto got his wallet out and paid the money. "Have a good time pops."

The blonde Hokage looked offended. "Pops? Young lady, I'm thirty-five years old."

"Exactly." The girl blew a bubble with her gum, another clear indicator of how bad her attitude was and how, apparently, she either had no clue who she was talking to or simply didn't care.

"Young lady!" Sakura snapped in annoyance. "Didn't your parents ever teach you any manners? What would your manager have to say if he found out you treated your customers like this?"

"Whoa! Hey, don't get your panties in a wad, you old hag."

Time seemed to stop. The music was still going but it might as well have been stopped completely as poor Naruto looked terrified for the teenager's life. 'Oh god, please no...'

...

"DAMN YOU!"

Sakura screamed at the top of her lungs. She was yelling and cursing and wanting to claw the insolent teenager's eyes out. Bouncers had to come over to restrain her, but instead they merely wound up beaten to a pulp and got themselves bitch slapped and thrown by their hair. Naruto stood out of the way, his head in his hands. He'd learned a long time ago to stay far out of her way whenever somebody said the wrong thing to her like this. Memories of one of their earliest meetings with their friend Sai stuck out in his mind...

Well, by the time Sakura had calmed down, Naruto had had to pay extra out of his pocket and play his 'I'm the Hokage' card to keep them both from getting thrown out. Sakura felt embarrassed that she had let her legendary temper get the best of her in such a public place, but then again, that bitch had it coming.

Anyway, when the two of them went into the club, they were assaulted with obnoxiously loud music, blinding, strobbing lights, and an entire crowd of teenagers and twenty-somethings making totally intricate or obscene dance moves, with many of the women wearing overly revealing outfits.

...Funny, it kind of reminded them of how they used to act back when they were younger.

Of course, back then they had much better taste in music than what they two of them were forced to listen to as the DJ blasted it through gigantic loudspeakers. Case in point, there was a song playing that sounded entirely demeaning and obnoxious:

Oh, my, God Becky, look at her butt
It is so big, she looks like
One of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, ya know, who understands those rap guys?
They only talk to her, because,
She looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
I mean, her butt, is just so big
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like out there
I mean gross, look
She's just so, black

I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, want to pull up tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I want to get wit'cha
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But with that butt you got makes (me so horny)
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you want to get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen her dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas (yeah) Fellas (yeah)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (hell yeah)
Tell 'em to shake it (shake it) shake it (shake it)
Shake that healthy butt
Baby got back (L.A. fits with the Oakland booty)

Baby got back (L.A. fits with the Oakland booty)

I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I want to get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneed bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sistas, I want to get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I want to fuck
Til the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies (Yeah) Ladies (Yeah)
If you want to role in my Mercedes (Yeah)
Then turn around, stick it out
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back

Baby got back
Yeah, baby, when it comes to females
Cosmo ain't got nothin'
To do with my selection
Thirty six-twenty- four-thirty six
Ha ha, only if she's 5'3

So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hon
You can do side bends or sit-ups
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers want to play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gol'
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines
You ain't it, Miss Thing
Give me a sista, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back

Baby got back

Sakura could not believe what she'd just heard. "That's the most disgusting song I've ever heard in my life! And why on Earth are all these girls dancing to it?!"

"No kidding!" Naruto agreed. "That was even worse than Killer B's raps! At least he didn't rap about women's asses for four and a half minutes. And what the heck kind of name in Becky? And what are a Benz and a Vette?" Still, he then turned his eyes to the side as he thought to himself. 'Of course, if Pervy Sage was still alive he'd probably love that song.'

The pinkette shook her head in disbelief. "Did you see that one girl rubbing her butt against that guy's crotch?"

"Yep...Well look on the bright side, at least this music can't get any worse."

You would think Naruto would be old enough to know not to make comments like that, because the very next song was...well...

Arf arf
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Grrrr)
Uh, Yeah don't get it twisted
This rap shit, is mine
Motherfucker, it's not, a fucking, game
Fuck what you heard

...

"What the hell was that garbage?!"

Now it was Sakura's turn to agree with her husband. "That was...that was terrible!"

"Come on," he said, "let's go get a drink."

The couple happily went to the bar and got a booth. As they took their seat, a waitress came over to hand them their menus. The woman appeared to be in her mid-to-late twenties and was wearing a cocktail dress that showed off her long, smooth legs, not to mention flattered her slim body type and drew attention to her D-cup breasts, which the dress showed plenty of cleavage of.

"Hello Lord Hokage, Lady Sakura. Welcome to Club Tobirama's. May I interest you in some refreshments?"

"Yes," Naruto said. "I'll just have the sake."

"Same here," Sakura told the waitress.

"Alright, thank you. I'll be back in a few moments to take your order." Smiling, the waitress left to head back to the bar to speak with the bartender.

"Well," Naruto said to his wife, "it looks like its going to be a while. What do you think so far?"

"Honest," Sakura frowned, "I'm suddenly feeling kid of old."

Naruto couldn't help but frown himself. "Yeah...Remember with we were teenagers, we would have loved atmosphere like this."

"Yeah," Sakura reflected. "To tell you the truth, fifteen years ago, I could see Ino dressing up and dancing like some this these girls." She chuckled to herself. "She always was a flirt." And then she sweat dropped. "And now she's a happily-married mother with a very active sex life."

"That's something you two have in common."

Sakura was not happy about that comment. "The difference is that Ino enjoys bragging to others about her sex life."

"Touché. I have to admit that I'm not very impressed with the music here."

"Agreed. Remember when we were kids, at least back then we had taste."

The waitress came back with their drinks. "Here you are folks."

"Leave the bottle," Sakura requested.

After that, the waitress took their orders. They decided to get appetizers since they by themselves looked good enough to fill them. The waitress then left to get them their food.

Naruto raised his glass and sighed. "To being thirty-five years old."

Sakura raised her own glass. "To being thirty-five years old."

The two of them clanged glasses and took a sip from their drinks. They had to admit, it was really good sake.

Sakura noticed a forlorn expression of her husband's face. "What is it?"

He sighed. "Eleven years."

"Huh?"

"I'm already eleven years older than they ever got to be."

She knew exactly whom he was talking about. "I'm sure your parents would be beyond proud of the man you've become."

"Domo."

After about twenty minutes of chit chat, the waitress finally came back with their food. They did have to admit that it tasted delicious.

"Mmm! Sakura, you have to try these buffalo wings!"

"In a minute. I'm still having the fried calamari!"

The couple chowed down and laughed at each others jokes, all the while they were forced to listen to still more music. Thank goodness the DJ decided to play something else besides bad, vulgar rap.

"Oh, I like this song," Sakura commented.

"Yeah, it's got a good rhythm to it," Naruto agreed.

"Oh look what we have here."

The two of them turned to the side to see a bunch of teenagers and twenty-somethings dressed in punk clothing and with tattoos and piercings. The women were hanging on their (presumed) boyfriends' shoulders.

"Can we help you folks?" Sakura asked.

"You the Lord Hokage and his woman?"

Naruto was comfortable with the one guy's choice of words. "She's my wife. And yes, that's us."

Another one of the guys spoke next. "What's a couple of old geezers like you doin' in our place?"

"Old geezers?!" Sakura questioned incredulously.

"And what do you mean 'your place?'"

Now one of the women spoke up. "He means that this is a place for the young and healthy shinobi, not of couple of busybodies that let themselves go after poppin' out a couple of kids."

Sakura laughed out loud. "Dear, I don't know what you've heard, but take my word for it that neither I, and especially not my husband, have let ourselves go. In fact, his abs are at least twice as ripped as your boyfriend's are."

He boyfriend rolled his eyes. "Yeah sure, whatever. Still, bet the old man can't hold his booze like we can."

Naruto was seriously getting annoyed now. "Kid, I can tell from your breath that you and your friends have has way too much to drink as it is. So why don't you and your friends do take a seat somewhere and leave us be before this causes a scene?"

Yet another of the youngsters spoke next. "Betcha pops here can't dance either."

...And that was the moment when these kids officially crossed the line. Naruto, not saying a word, or blinking, dried off his hands, wiped the food off his face, and stood up to face them.

"Son, don't you think you ought to rephrase that?"

The youngster pretended to think it over for a moment. "Hmm...No!"

All of them suddenly burst out into laughter. Sakura was getting annoyed herself. "Hey! I'll have you kids know that my husband is a damn good dancer! All of our friends can tell you that!"

"Is he?" The drunken leader of the group smirked as he looked his Hokage up and down. "Alright old man...prove it!"

Naruto at first appeared incredulous to the bold request, but after a second or two, he relaxed and smirked. "As you wish."

The DJ's current song was wrapping up, so Naruto took the opportunity to walk up to him and made a request.

"Alright everybody!" the DJ shouted over the microphone. "We've got us a special treat in the hizzah tonight! Our Lord Seventh Hokage himself says he's got some bitchin' moves he wants to show us. So here we go!"

There was a brief applause before the music kicked in, and right away, Naruto wowed everybody with some very impressive dance moves, including some that seemed to defy gravity, almost like he was gliding across the floor.

This routine continued all throughout the song:

As he came into the window
It was the sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
She ran underneath the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down, it was her doom

Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok Aimi?

(Aimi are you ok?)
(Will you tell us that you're ok?)
(There's a sign on the window)
(That he stuck you a crescendo Aimi)
(He came into her apartment)
(He left the bloodstains on the carpet)
(Then you ran into the bedroom)
(You were struck down)
(It was your doom)

Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
Aimi, are you ok?
So, Aimi are you ok?
Are you ok, Aimi?
You've been hit by
You've been hit by
A smooth criminal

So they came into the outway
It was Sunday, what a black day
Mouth to mouth
Resuscitation
Sounding heartbeats, intimidation

(Aimi are you ok?)
(So Aimi are you ok?)
(Are you ok Aimi?)
(You've been hit by)
(You've been struck by)
(A smooth criminal)

Okay, I want everybody to clear the area right now!

Aaow!
(Aimi are you ok?)
I don't know!
(Will you tell us that you're ok?)
I don't know!
(There's a sign in the window)
I don't know!
(That he struck you - a crescendo Aimi)
I don't know!
(He came into your apartment)
I don't know!
(Left the bloodstains on the carpet)
I don't know why baby!
(Then you ran into the bedroom)
I don't know
(You were struck down)
(It was your doom - Aimi!)

Dag gone it - baby!
(Will you tell us that you're ok?)
Dag gone it - baby!
(There's a sign in the window)
Dag gone it - baby!
(That he struck you - a crescendo Aimi)
Hoo! Hoo!
(He came into your apartment)
Dag gone it!
(Left the bloodstains on the carpet)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
(Then you ran into the bedroom)
Dag gone it!

Aaow!

The crowd fell silent for a moment. The song was over and Naruto had utterly wowed everyone with some of the most awesome break dancing they'd ever seen. Of course, as soon as their moment of stupor was over, the entire crowd erupted into applause. Women were going nuts, guys were cheering, and from their booth, Sakura was smiling with pride.

She turned to the youngsters who'd dared to challenge him and smirked. "Impressed?"

The group were too proud (or ashamed) to admit to their defeat, so instead they just scoffed and left without another word.

'That's my Naruto, leave it to him to defy expectations.'

Sakura's thoughts were cut off when she suddenly noticed that Naruto was standing over her with his hand outstretched. "Naruto?"

"May I have this dance?"

She smiled and took the hand, "Sure."

Together, the two lovers went out to the dance floor as the DJ started another song:

No control
Walk right through the coals to feel the pain
I'm lost in you
Oh
Now you strike the match and light the flame
My heart's a blaze
I feel the heat of your desire
I just can't face the fire

You've got me burning
You've got me burning
You've got me burning in the third degree

Hypnotize
See the flicker gleaming in your eyes
It catches me
Oh
I take it and you'll never let me go
I'm your prisoner
I feel the heat of your desire
I just can't face the fire

You've got me burning
You've got me burning
You've got me burning in the third degree

Can't stop my body's aching
Give us what this all has taken
I'm the victim of your passion
Now you're burning too

You've got me burning
You've got me burning
You've got me burning in the third degree

As the hard rock music kept going, many of the patrons were memorized by their movements. It wasn't mind blowing break dancing like what Naruto was doing earlier, but the two of them seemed perfectly in sync. More so, their moments to the song seemed so...erotic. Sakura would sometimes bend over backwards in a suggestive pose as she moved and he leaned in over her. Their bodies would get very close. There were even some subtle integration of some of their ninja training incorporated into their movements.

By the end of their dance, with the entire club looking on and applauding, Naruto was holding Sakura with one arm as she was staring up at him. Both of them were breathing heavily as sweat was poring down their faces. But they were also smiling wide, having loved every moment of it, and being fully in love with each other.

And maybe, just maybe, they each were feeling just a little bit aroused as well...

As the crowd kept applauding, the two of them dried their faces and returned to their booth.

"Whew!" Sakura cheered. "That was fun!"

"Darn right!" He picked up his drink again. "I think I had it backwards before." He held the glass up. "To being thirty-five years young!"

Sakura proudly held her own glass back up. "To being thirty-five years young!"

The two of them each took a drink and started going back to their food.

"Naruto, this was actually not such a bad night. Domo arigato."

"You're welcome honey."

"Say, Naruto?"

"Yeah?"

"How do you think the kids are doing right now?"

"Relax. Shina's a responsible young man now. I'm sure that whatever their doing, he's got everything under control and staying out of trouble."

Back at the Uzumaki Estate, Shinachiku Uzumaki was staring in horror at the state of the house after everything that had just happened.

"Mom and dad are going to kill me..."

Uh-oh! That doesn't sound good! What could possibly have happened that has Shinachiku so worried? You'll just have to come back for the next chapter to find out.

Anyway, as for this chapter, I hope you all liked it. As samuraipanda85 suggested in his review of Chapter 1, I tried to use this night out at the club to highlight how old the two of them have gotten and the generational gap the both suddenly find themselves in. In my head, Naruto and Sakura are more of the 80s/90s/2000s generation (like myself), and the teenagers and twenty somethings they meet here see them, unfairly, as old timers by comparison. But really, thirty-five still isn't that bad yet, at least not to me.

The moment where Naruto recalls how much older he is now than his parents ever lived to be was influenced by a scene between Kirk and McCoy in "Star Trek Beyond," where they are drinking to celebrate Kirk's birthday and Jim recounts how he is now a year older than his father ever lived to be.

There were four songs in this chapter alone. The first was "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot. Now, honestly, I don't hate the song myself (no offense to women readers whatsoever), but you can understand why a mid thirties couple in a position of power and with two kids might find that song offensive...And also easily understand why Jiriaya would absolutely love that song! Seriously, there must be at least a dozen AMVs about Jiraiya cut to that song, not surprisingly.

The second song was "X Gon' Give It To Ya" by DMX. It don't hate this song either, but that is mainly because it was used so famously in "Deadpool." Maybe Randamu could make it his anthem in the future, I don't know...

The third song was "Smooth Criminal" by Michael Jackson. This was a chance for me to call back to Naruto's dance skills that I gave him back in "Naruto's Big Day," where he danced to yet another Michael Jackson song. If you've ever seen the video to "Smooth Criminal," you can use your imagination for the kind of moves Naruto might be doing here, even though he obviously isn't wearing Michael's iconic outfit from that video. I did make one notable change to the song: instead of "Annie," the name MJ constantly calls out during the original song, I changed it to "Aimi," to give it a slightly more anime flavor.

The last song was a more obscure one, "Burnin' in the Third Degree" by by Tahnee Cain and Tryanglz. For those of you who don't know, this song was featured in the 1984 film "The Terminator." It can be heard playing over the scene in the Tech-Noir club where Sarah Conner is hiding from her stalkers, which leads to the Terminator's first attempt at killing her, and her first meeting with Kyle Reese. Its a great, totally 80s song that sadly is not easy to find. But it always stuck out to me because I've seen "The Terminator" so many times growing up.

Also, the very end of their dance routine is a callback to one of my favorite shows of all time, "Avatar: The Last Airbender." In "Book Three, Chapter Two: The Headband," Aang and Katara dance together in front of a crowd of Fire Nation school kids (in a plot very much stolen from "Footloose") and...well, they get pretty into it and by the end of their dance, they are in the same position I put Naruto and Sakura into here, complete with heavy breathing and pouring sweat. For a Nickelodeon show, the sexual metaphor of this entire scene has always been pretty obvious...And yes, I am a Kataang fan, in case you haven't guessed.

I think that's all I've got for today. Thanks for reading, and I hope to see you all back for the next one.

Until next time, see ya!
