I am back! Once more I bring another chapter! And once more I bring more wholesomeness! Now, I know some of you might think that the last chapter was rushed, in regard to Naruto's and Ai's relationship, and I am inclined to agree. However, I do not believe that Naruto didn't know what love is until the Last Movie. There are things I disagree with what the Last Movies lays out and how the last few chapters of Naruto portrayed things.

For once, I disagree that about Naruto not knowing the difference between love. Naruto clearly knows what it is to love someone non-romantically. He loved Jiraiya like a father of sorts almost, he loved the 3rd as if he was a grandfather. And he even knew the love that his parents held for him, as explained by his father and mother.

The only love that Naruto had no experience with was romantic love. He chased Sakura around because he thought he loved her, when in reality that love was more platonic then anything and he realized that even in the mange later on and even called out Sakura on her BS confession after Jiraiya died.

Now the case with Hinata is odd because she was always shy, so she didn't really interact with him much to gain his attention. Then she made her confession, WHICH WAS THEN NEVER BROUGHT UP until the Movie. I like Hinata, she is best girl for Naruto in my opinion, but the fact that Kishimoto made Hinata confess and never bought it up only to pull it out during the Last movie? No. I believe that Kishimoto did her character dirty for never brining her confession back up.

With that said, I'll show some of Naruto's and Ai's dates and bonding in a sort of small flashback sprinkled throughout the story. With that said, I also apologize if there are mistakes and issues with the chapters. English is not my first language and I have no Beta reader/writer to look at things, this is mostly just a passion project. I'm not saying for you not you criticize my work, just don't flame it unnecessarily. I'm keeping track of all the mistakes you are pointing out and hope to go back and fix them later. With all this said, enjoy!

They didn't know for how long they lay in his bed, but they didn't care. The two cuddled each other as they peaceful basked in the others warmth, clinging to each other as if the other might disappear.

"Naruto-kun…" Ai spoke as she looked at him in the eye, their foreheads touching ever so slightly. Naruto looked back at her. He could never get some at looking into her eyes. They were genuinely like a pair of stars, shining brightly in the dark.

"Yes?" He questioned her, his voice nothing but a whisper.

"You said you were from a different world. What was it like?" She questioned it out of curiosity. Naruto hummed at that before he spoke.

"It was…different. Life was much simpler, but also chaotic. We were trained from a young age to be Shinobi's. To fight and to die for our villages. The villages were like a…dictatorship of sorts where the Hokage, the village leader, was the supreme authority and the Shinobi held most of the power." Naruto tried to explain as she looked at him with concern.

"Did you…have to fight for your life?" She questioned him as laid a hand on his cheek, causing Naruto to blush.

"I…I've been fighting my whole life. Every day was a constant struggle. The villagers always hated me when I was a child. They saw me as a monster…" Naruto responded as he remembered how parents discouraged their kids from playing with him.

"Why would they do such a thing?" She questioned as Naruto chuckled.

"Before I tell you that, you need to understand the fundamental aspect difference between this world and mine. In my world we can control Chakra. Chakra exists in this world too, but humanity in this world lack the ability to us it." Naruto started as she looked confused.

"Chakra?" She questioned as Naruto nodded as he brought his hand forward and allowed it to be engulfed in a golden cloak of sort. Ai looked at it, fascinated as she intertwined her hand with his.

"It's so…warm…" She muttered at the warmth his hand provided.

"With Chakra we can do many things that seem superhuman. We can control the elements, have specialized bloodlines, and etc." Naruto tried to explain. He slept through much of the academy, so he didn't know the best way to explain it. After all, it was as easy as breathing for them to use Chakra.

"What does your Chakra do?" She questioned, still holding onto his hand.

"Well, mine is somewhat special. My mother was an Uzumaki, and Uzumaki's were known for their longevity. That is our bloodline, of long vitality. We can survive from almost any disease and non-mortal wounds. And I have another Chakra that bolsters these traits, that of the Kyuubi no Yoko." Naruto explained, causing her to gasp.

"Like from the myths?!" She questioned him with surprise. Naruto chuckled at her reaction.

"Well, back where I'm from, he isn't a myth. His name is Kurama and yes, he is a Nine-Tailed fox, but he is a being made up of Chakra. Too keep a long story short; there are Tailed Beasts, nine of them in total, each represented by how many tails they have. Kurama was the strongest as he possessed nine tails. In my world, these Tailed Beasts were sealed inside people to make the said people living weapons, thus creating Jinchūriki's." Naruto kept on explaining as he told her everything.

"Human sacrifice?" Ai questioned as she tried to understand the meaning of the word. Naruto nodded at that.

"Yes. My mother had Kurama sealed inside of her, and on the day of my birth Kurama was released from his seal by force when a man named Obito Uchiha. My father was forced to seal Kurama into me as my mother was dying at that point, and it was the only way to save the village. In the final moments of the sealing, Kurama lashed out and attempted to kill me, but my parents shielded me from the attack, giving up their lives to save mine. And that is how I became a Jinchuriki." Naruto ended as Ai was left in total surprise.

"Is that why they treated you like the way they did?" Ai questioned as the gears in her head began to turn.

"Yes. The villagers saw me as the Kyuubi, the fox that had laid waste to the village. They passed all their hatred on to me and I never knew why they hated me for the longest of times. I them I was a monster." Naruto finished sadly as Ai moved closer to him and kissed him slightly.

"You're not a monster, Naruto-kun. A monster wouldn't save someone." Ai said as Naruto sighed. He would have said more had there not been a bang on his door. Naruto groaned as he stood up and headed to the door. Who the heck was banging at his door right now? Opening the door, he was confronted with a group of people, all their cameras taking pictures of him.

"Are you Naruto?!" One of the reporters asked as the flash from their cameras took him by surprise.

"What is your relationship with B-Komachi's Ai?!" Another reporter asked Naruto.

"Are you two couple?!" As the third reported asked, Naruto quickly shut his door as thought about what had just happened.

"Uh, Ai, we might have a problem." Naruto called out as she poked her head out from down the hall.

A couple of minutes later:

Ichigo sighed as he looked at the two sitting before him. Honestly, they should have expected this kind of fallout and Ai should have been more careful when she made her way home. She hadn't even opted for her disguise. There was already news about Naruto and Ai as the two were seen kissing at the Naruto's door apartment, with the two being taken the picture from the cameraman who caught them last night.

"You realize that your career as an Idol is pretty much over, right?" Ichigo questioned her to which she nodded. While she knew that most fans these days didn't really care that much, the problem lay with the entertainment world as a whole. An Idol in a relationship was no Idol at all. Ichigo sighed once more.

"Well, it's not like I could have changed your mind." He finished. Ai was as stubborn as ever and he was too damn soft on her to do anything.

"It's fine. Sooner or later the truth would have come out anyway." Ai pointed out to which Ichigo shook his head.

"But it could have been sooner rather than later. You're always making such rash decision." He responded to which Ai pouted.

"This isn't one of those rash decisions." Ai stated, causing Ichigo to roll his eyes. Naruto for his part felt bad about the whole situation.

"I'm sorry Ai, because of me you gave up your dream…" Naruto apologized but Ai quickly turned to him and waved her hands in a dismissive manner.

"No Naruto-kun! You have nothing to apologize for! This was my decision and I realized that I'd rather spend my time with my children, and you rather then always be busy." She explained to which Naruto perked up.

"But, what about Aqua and Ruby?" Naruto questioned as Ai fell silent. It was true that the media still didn't know about her children and with all of the buzz around her and Naruto, they were bound to find out about them. If that was the case, then she worried about all kinds of things the media would say about them.

"I was actually thinking to reveal them." She purposed causing Ichigo and Naruto eyes to widen in surprise. Did they hear her right?

"Ai, that will definitely tarnish your reputation. You had your children when you were so young, and furthermore you haven't even told me who their father. If you haven't told me that, what will you tell the media?" Ichigo questioned as Ai went silent. She never wanted to disclose who their father was because she wanted nothing to do with him. The last time she had contacted him was so that he could see their kids, but the man never did. She wanted to put that chapter behind her for good.

"She must have had a good reason not to. Have more faith in her." Naruto came to her defense as she looked up at him. He had never once asked, and she was great full for it. Naruto turned to her and gave her a grin.

"Don't worry Ai. I know you have your reasons. And besides, don't you remember the promise I made you?" He questioned her to which nod. Yes, she remembered that as clear as day.

"Why don't you just pass off Aqua and Ruby as yours and Naruto's children?" It was Miyako who presented the idea, causing the two to blush at that.

"Naruto's…children…" Ai thought as her head was spinning.

"Me a…father…?" Naruto thought in shock. Their reactions was very much amusing to Miyako who could only chuckle lightly at that.

"Well, that would more certainly be better than simply trying to hide the identity of the real father. That would actually make the scandal way worse. And this way you can explain your little outburst and the photos of you two kissing." Ichigo reasoned as he ruffled his hair.

"I-I wouldn't mind that if Naruto-kun agrees." Ai answered with a blush. She wouldn't force Naruto to do something he was against.

"I don't mind, Ai." Came Naruto's response as Ai turned to him in surprise.

"You don't?" She questioned again as Naruto nodded.

"When I think about it, Aqua and Ruby have almost the same blonde hair color as me. So, it wouldn't be difficult to claim that they are." Naruto reasoned. The thought of having children, even if not his own, was a foreign concept to him. He never thought that he would ever reach that stage in his life.

"Then we better find a bigger place then this." Miyako chimed in again, her slay grin growing by the second as she watched the two young couple become flustered at that. She chuckled at that as Ichigo shook his head.

"She's right. We'll have to find you two a place for the four of you. If you're gonna be a couple no point in living separately. Great, now we got to move again, and Tokyo isn't cheap." Ichigo shook his head.

"Living together." The two bought as steam started to escape their ears. Ichigo grew a tick mark at his wife's attempts to fluster the two.

"Miyako, this is a serious matter! It's already as expensive as it was moving to this place but finding a place for 4 is going to be though on a budget." Ichigo stated. While Idol's earned a lot of money, a good portion of it went to either to the company that they were contracted with to maintain the overhead cost associated with managing an Idol and their group. At the end of the day Idol's earned a lot less then people assumed and only the top 1% of them earned enough to live comfortably.

"Ah, that won't be an issue." Naruto raised his hand at that causing all three to look at him, wondering what he meant.

"Naruto-san, you don't understand. While I have no issues with Ai wanting a relationship, other companies don't see it that way. She has in effect broken a contract and within the entertainment industry very few companies are willing to work with people who do such a thing. I'm afraid that Ai's opportunities at this point at very limited at the moment." Ichigo started, but Naruto shook his head.

"Have you forgotten that I'm an author, Ichigo-san?" Naruto questioned him as Ichigo sighed.

"No disrespect Naruto-san, while your books are popular, no way can they sustain a lifestyle for 4. This isn't mentioning that you'll have 2 kids to take care of. Maybe if your books had drama or TV adaptions you could." Ichigo countered to which Naruto raised an eyebrow.

"Um, Ichigo-san, do you know exactly how popular my books are?" Naruto questioned causing Ichigo to nod. Naruto's book had a decent following from what he could gather within the entertainment world. Granted he was not too well connected in the realm of books, but from what he could gather there was very much the willingness to support his books being turned into TV dramas or heck even animes!

"I don't think you do." Naruto answered him as he pulled out his phone and opened up his banking app before logging in. He then turned the phone around and beckoned Ichigo to take a look. The man raised an eyebrow as he grabbed the phone and looked down, only for his shades to slide forward and his jaw let hanging.

"W-What…." Ichigo questioned, Miyako and Ai too were curious and took a look before being left shocked as well.

"H-How many zeroes are there…" Miyako questioned as she rubbed her eyes to confirm if what she was look at was true.

"N-Naruto-kun, how…" Ai questioned as well. Just how much money did Naruto have? Naruto for his part shrugged.

"My books are insanely popular, not just in Japan, but across the world. Places like the US and Europe practically love them. They have been translated to multiple languages to support these regions. And with the income being in Dollars and Euros, well, let's just say I got a few foreign bank accounts that I just let the money pile up in." Naruto explained. He was honestly shocked how many perverts exited in this world.

"Naruto-san, how rich are you?" Ichigo questioned. If what he saw was the real deal, Naruto was insanely rich.

"I do not know. At first, they were just a way to earn some income. I never expected them to be this popular." Naruto responded honestly. He just wanted enough to get by, but with all the money he didn't really know what to do with it, so he just kept on putting a vast majority of it into savings.

"Well, I guess there won't be an issue with finding a house now." Miyako chuckled at that. Who would have thought that the man next door was crazy rich? Naruto nodded as he turned to Ai with a serious look.

"Ai, you remember my promise, right? Well, do not worry. I will take care of you and your kids no matter what. I-I do not know what it means to be a father; I have no knowledge or experience of it, but know that I'll be always be there for you and your children. I will make sure that you three have all that you require in your lives." Naruto proclaimed, causing Ai to hug him at that as Miyako chuckled at the two.

"So, when's the wedding?" She questioned as Ichigo almost choked. Like hell he would let that blond bastard marry Ai! He was going to say something, but one look from Miyako and he shut his mouth before he opted to bring the conversation back on track.

"Anyways, are you sure you want to reveal your kids with that story? There will be no going back." Ichigo questioned Ai, wanting to be absolutely sure of her choice.

"I'd rather reveal the truth on my terms than on the wimps of the media." Ai responded to which Ichigo nodded. Better to just release such information now and from the source rather than let the media stumble on it and make their own conclusions.

"Very well. I'll work on PR, but we'll have to consider our next options regarding what you will be doing, Ai. While I do think that being an Idol is most likely out of reach but being an actor wont. I am sure the director Gotanda, and others won't really mind. Actors have less of a stigma when it comes to having relationships and kids, but you'll most likely have to start from the bottom again." Ichigo laid out the options. He was sure he could keep finding work for Ai and while her Idol group might no longer have Ai in it as the lead, he was sure the group could survive under his guidance.

"So, what do we do for now?" Naruto questioned him as Ichigo stood up.

"For now, just sit tight here while we deal with the situation. I'm sure Ai's decision is going to send shockwaves throughout the entertainment world. Also, Naruto, I would like you to consider revealing the fact that you are the actual writer of the Icha-Icha series." Ichigo advised him, causing Naruto to look at him seriously.

"Why?" Naruto questioned him with a stern face. If Ichigo advice were good, he would consider it.

"Ai's reputation might suffer less if the people find out that the one, she is dating and is the father of her children is a famous writer, even if they are Icha-Icha novels. There are many people who have been seeking the person behind the books and they might even be more understanding of the situation. For Ai's and her children's sake." Ichigo reasoned, using Ai as an excuse of sort, something that Ai picked up on.

"That's not fair! You can't just force Naruto to reveal that fact by using me!" Ai argued but Naruto stopped her as he grabbed her shoulder.

"No, Ai, he is right. It would make sense if you were seeing someone more well-known, even if it's though my novels." Naruto said as Ai turned to him and looked at him, seeing if he truly was fine with this. Naruto nodded to her before turning back to Ichigo.

"I agree to that. Please make sure you include that in your statement." Naruto said as Ichigo nodded before he left to do his work. Whatever was to come next, they were sure that this would be the next chapter of their lives.

Annnnd done! Ai's secret is going to come out now, her career will take a turn and now Naruto will be living with her and her children! Things are going to become more and more spicy! See you all next time!
