Jiraiya lead Namay out of the Inn taking her to a Hot-Spring that he owned so that way he knew they would have complete privacy just in case things got a little steamy in the already hot bath.
Stripping out of every last piece of clothing he had on Jiraiya lowered his naked self down into the water enjoying himself as he waited on Namay. She appeared in nothing but a white towel, her hair pulled up into a ponytail and she sat on the edge of the Spring dipping her feet in the soothing water.
Jiraiya moved over next to her and they both sat there relaxing for awhile before ether of them began the conversation they came out here to have.
Namay was the first to brake the relaxing atmosphere: " Well, You gonna tell me what you wanted to talk about any time soon or are we just going to sit here getting all pruney until the sun comes up and what is your deal with the Hot-Springs anyways Jiraiya?"
"That should be obvious what better way for this Big Super Perv to see the ladies in the nude. Ha Ha" Jiraiya let a big healthy laugh until Namay playfully kicked some water in his direction.
"I'm not going to argue with you about that Jiraiya... Hell, I'm probably a bit of a Perv myself, Why else would I be so willing to assist you in your research so often."
Jiraiya put his hands over his heart in a mock surprise manner before saying: " Oh so that's it huh, What a fool I am to think you joined me because well I don't know maybe you just loved me or something."
He grinned at her even though he knew she wouldn't show any outward signs Jiraiya could see it in her eyes that what he said as a joke was actually very true and he felt the exact same way when it came to the woman sitting next to him only difference is he was more then willing to show it.
" Whatever, The reason doesn't really matter... Can we get back to what you wanted to tell me already?" Namay folded her arms across her chest letting Jiraiya know she was serious and since it was Jiraiya of course he was already looking at her chest so he did notice.
"If you wanted to know that badly, Why didn't you just read it in my thoughts already?" asked Jiraiya still staring at her breast no doubt picturing in his mind what was underneath that cotton white towel.
"You know good and well I don't like to read people's thoughts unless it benefits me somehow... Besides as big of a pervert that you are on the outside, I have no desires to see what the inside of your mind entails."
Jiraiya let out another hearty laugh at that because he knew that was her way of joking even saying it as serious as she done. He has more or less spent the last 13 years with this woman so there was not much he didn't know about her and the same want with Namay when it came to Jiraiya, they had a very strong unbreakable bond between them and they both knew it.
"Okay Okay fair enough, You probably already figured it out anyways it has to do with Orochimaru but before I get into that, I wanna know what got you so worked up and don't try to say that it was that woman back at the Inn... I know you better then that Namay, Something else is going on in that beautiful mind of yours or should I say someone else like for example a certain masked Silver Haired Ninja we both know?"
Namay Sarutobi let out a heavy sigh and then want ahead and lowered herself into the water next to Jiraiya leaving her towel on because she knew from passed experiences that Jiraiya would not be able to compose himself enough to carry on a serious conversation with her completely in the nude around him.
"Kakashi Hatake is part of it but It is not just him... Even Asuma and my Father, It's everyone really... I didn't realize how hard going back to the Village was going to be on me. I knew it would not be easy but still... It feels like they all expect me to be the same Sweet yet Sassy girl from 13 years ago and are so disappointed when they realize that girl has been replaced by this cold heartless Bitch, that is now nothing more then a hollow shell of her former self."
Jiraiya didn't say anything because he could sense she needed to rant some more instead he leaned over putting his arm around her shoulders pulling her into him, Namay took comfort in his touch and rested her head on his strong chest taking in the relaxing thumping sounds of his heartbeats before going on speaking:
" They are all breaking down the walls I worked so hard to setup around my heart over the years... That is something that I can't afford to let happen, it will render me useless when it comes to the Snake Bastard... You know as well as I do Jiraiya you can't have any emotional attachments when fighting Orochimaru because he will exploit them, which is allot of the reason why I haven't been back to the Village before now."
"Yes that he does but you have to big of a heart and can't completely cut off all your ties to those you care about Namay not without destroying yourself in the process...Do you remember when you first came to me it was because you were looking for some sort of connection to the Hidden Leaf and I just happened to be conducting some research in the same pub you were at that night... I will never forget the look on your 16 year old face as you tried to drown your sorrows in alcohol never minding the fact that you were underage. Apparently that didn't matter to the bartender ether..."
"That's because I lied to him saying I was 21 and I guess he ether thought I could use a good drink or just wanted my money because he never once asked to see any I.D. proving my age."
"Yes well you are really good at the lying Namay when you want to be, Although for the most part I've noticed you tend to tell the blunt truth no matter how hurtful it may be, which is one of the many things I find alluring about you..."
He stopped talking long enough to place a kiss atop her head before going on: " Anyways back to that day we met... I remember sitting there rubbing my cheek from the latest slap I received by the seventh girl who turned me down, I was about to call it a night when I noticed those blue eyes of yours from across the bar and decided what the hell I'll give it one more shot before I go...It wasn't until I sat down beside you that I realized who you were...Even though none of your immediate family members have those stunning oceanic eyes, I remembered seeing them when I first met you when I was doing a mission with my Sensei at the time, your father Hiruzen Sarutobi. You were only about 4 or 5 and probably don't remember me but I remember you because I recall asking Hiruzen where you got your blue eyes from since nether him nor your mother Biwako had them, even little Asuma had dark eyes."
" Yeah I get asked about them all the time due to the fact that no one else has this color but they always believe I belong to the Sarutobi Clan because everything else looks exactly like my mother's features but if anyone was to have seen photos of my Grandmother on my father's side they would not have to ask because she had the same brilliant blue eyes that I do."
"Yep, that's what the third told me when I asked even showed me a picture of his mother holding you as toddler in her arms smiling proudly up at the camera with your faces next to each other showing off how much you looked alike with those eyes and brown hair both pulled up into pigtails on top of your heads... Okay, Now we're getting off track, Hmm, Where was I..."
"Enough of this Nostalgia crap, Tell me what you learned about the Snake Bastard already and if it has anything to do with Sasuke Uchiha being the latest victim of the Cursed Seal then you are telling me information that I already know."
"I see, So then do you know why Orochimaru wants Sasuke Uchiha so badly?" Namay shook her head no against his chest where she still had the side of her face pressed listening to the beating of his heart.
Jiraiya lowered his arm from around her shoulder down to her waist before he want on talking: "It's because of his Sharingan, As you know Orochimaru has been beyond obsessed with having access to that copying Technique every since he encountered and was beaten by Itachi Uchiha... Which brings me to what I really wanted to discuss with you Namay, Have you heard of a group who call themselves the Akatsuki?"
"Just that they are a bunch of S-rank Rogue Ninjas much like I am considered now, who wear very distinctive long dark cloaks with red clouds but unlike Me most of them have tried to destroy their home villages before deserting the land and I only know that much because that Snake Bastard was apart of them at one point which is what you were talking about, He teamed with Itachi Uchiha... Didn't really bother to look into the Akatuski after he abandon them because I could care less about a bunch of Rogue Ninjas, That Asshole Orochimaru is the only one I'm after."
"You really do have a one track mind don't you cupcake? Anyways, from what I have been able to gather on the Akatsuki they are after all Nine of the Tailed Beast for some unknown reason... Since you know who Sasuke Uchiha is then I assume you must know who Naruto Uzumaki is as well and probably Sakura Haruno too but she has nothing to do with anything other then the fact that she is Kakashi Hatake's third member on his squad and from what I heard you have been spending allot of time with Kakashi even live with him now."
"That makes you very jealous doesn't Jiraiya since it was you I was more or less living with before Kakashi... Haven't really lived anywhere in the last 13 years and this thing with Kakashi is only temporary until the Snake Bastard shows his hand... Oh and I have met Whiskers or Naruto as you know him as, As a matter of fact coming into contact with him was something else entirely... I literally can't touch him without causing an explosion, Not sure if it is his abilities or mine that is at fault... Maybe it's a combo of both but every time I physically touch that boy or he touches me, we emerge into one powerful being and as I said an explosion arises...Thankfully it can be controlled for a time due to my abilities but still it's odd, Don't you think?"
"Yes very odd indeed, You know I started training that kid and kind of took him in under my wing like I done for you all those years ago because he reminded me allot of you back then. He has the same determined one track mind and I believe he has the potential to achieve his dream which is to become the Hokage one day... Only difference is I have absolutely no desires at all for his help in any of my research and from the impression I get from him he wants no part in it ether." Jiraiya laughed and then smiled down at Namay before kissing the top of her head again.
Namay responded by lifting her head up off his chest and leaning up kissing Jiraiya's lips something she had done countless times over the years yet somehow this time something didn't feel quite right and she ended up pulling entirely away from him even got out of the Hot-Spring, much to Jiraiya's disappointment.
"It's because of Kakashi isn't it?" called out Jiraiya stopping Namay in her tracks, She turned around to face him before answering.
" Honestly I don't know, being back around Kakashi and everyone else from my past has brought back so many things that I thought I had locked away along time ago... I'm starting to feel emotions that I thought died in me years ago and I'm just so damn confused as to who I am anymore."
This time Jiraiya got out of the Hot-Spring wrapped a towel around his waist and want to her taking her in his arms and just holding her to himself.
"You should never have to feel confused about me sweetpea, There is nothing I wouldn't do for you and you know that... I don't invite you out here just for sexual gain, that's just an added bonus. Ha Ha!"
Namay punched him in the arm for saying that which Jiraiya expected her to do at least it showed that she was listening to him.
"All kidding aside, That is not why I spend my time with you, I do it because I enjoy your company both when your clothed and when your not, I just prefer you not to be as I do with all my Ladies... Anyways as you know I have been with allot of women over the years but out of all those countless ladies there are only a few who I still want in my bed when the morning comes and you Namay Sarutobi are without a doubt number one on that list... Face it somewhere along the line, I fell in love with your sexy yet crazy ass, Hehe and I know you love me too, even if you refuse to admit it out loud."
Namay leaned back in his arms so that she could look up at his face and with one look into his eyes she conformed everything Jiraiya was saying to be the truth and for someone who has the psychic abilities that she possessed Namay is able to read people's true emotions more so then anyone else can.
You might be able to lie out of your mouth and even rearrange your thoughts to reflect your lies to fool her but in the end your eyes will always betray you by telling her the truth, which is what was happening right now as Namay stared deeply into Jiraiya's loving yet lustful eyes.
She cupped his chin in her hand and had go onto her tippy toes to reach his lips because even though Namay stood at 5 foot 8, Jiraiya's 6 foot 3 frame still towered over her own. She pressed her soft lips to his which Jiraiya happily returned with more passion then she gave him even slipped her some tongue while grabbing her ass which Namay expected because this was Jiraiya after all, A self admitted super pervert.
When they finally broke for air Namay told Jiraiya: " Just for the record, I do love you Jiraiya but as you said that's hard for me to admit, So don't be expecting to hear me say it allot... Ya big perv."
Jiraiya grinned at that even though he knew it already, it was still nice to hear her actually say the words.
" Okay well let's get the hell out of here, Rather you help me with my "Research" or not, I don't think you need to be alone tonight not with the emotional state of mind you are in... Come stay the night with me instead of heading back to Asuma's group."
Namay Sarutobi agreed to Jiraiya's request, then they grabbed their clothes and headed to where Jiraiya was staying for the night.
