Maaaaaan y'all have just been showing this fic so much love and it's only been 2 chapters so far. Well I can't deny what the people want so here we are once again. Shoutout to the one and only bigtrunk for being my beta. Let's get into it folks.

As always I hope you all enjoy and have a wonderful day.

Naruto and Cindy were still laying in bed naked with nothing but a blanket covering them, exhausted from the events of yesterday. Though they were able to make up for any potential bruises or cuts with sex throughout a good portion of night. Apparently Cindy had discovered a new kink of hers from the fight the other day and they were exploring it thoroughly. This time without the tentacles.

Cindy had her eyes closed and her head on the chest of her boyfriend who was stroking her back. Naruto was simply watching the ceiling fan spin and spin, nothing on his mind except how many times the fan had slowly spun since he started counting.

'67… 68… 69, Heh nice… 70…'

'I don't mean to interrupt whatever you're doing my host… that's a lie, please stop counting.' His new passenger said through the mental connection they had as host and symbiote.

'Oh hey buddy, good to hear from you again. Did you finally get accustomed to my language?' Naruto asked in thought after noticing the improved speech pattern of his new friend.

'Indeed. English as it is called, is a confusing language.' The symbiote stated, making its slight irritation known.

'There, they're, and their. What is the point of having three versions of the same word but spelled differently?' It questioned its host rhetorically.

Naruto let out a small chuckle, 'Hell if I know my friend, I'm just glad I grew up speaking the language.'

Cindy opened her eyes and looked at Naruto's face when she heard his laughter, "What's so funny?" She asked.

He looked back at her before replying, "Nothing really, just chatting with the symbiote and it was complaining about the English language."

Cindy's face fell when she heard the word symbiote, she was still somewhat distraught that Naruto had that thing part of him now, "Oh… your parasite." She said with a hint of disdain.

Naruto's body shook violently which threw Cindy off his chest, when his shaking stopped he grabbed his head at the pain from his new partner yelling in his head.

'Parasite?! Apologize! Naruto, I want her to apologize!' The symbiote yelled through the mental connection. It was pissed off worse than when it was on its rampage the other day.

'Woah pal, calm down,' Naruto replied, trying to get his partner to ease up, 'She'll apologize but I need you to settle down alright?' It was still mad but did as its host asked of it.

Naruto refocused and didn't see Cindy on the bed anymore. In fact she was currently on the ceiling. He tilted his head before asking, "Babe what are you doing up there?"

Cindy looked at her position before looking back to him, "Um… my spider-sense went off so I kinda did it on reflex. Sorry." She said before falling down to the floor and gently landing on her feet.

"So what was that shaking about?" Cindy asked, wanting to know what had caused her spider-sense to go off.

Naruto sighed before answering, "You pissed it off and it wants an apology." Cindy had a look of confusion on her face before replying, "For what? For calling it a parasite?"

He grabbed his head once more in pain, "Yeah that, please stop using that word. It's very sensitive about it." He stated with gritted teeth.

"Oh. Um, I'm sorry I called you a parasite?" She said though it sounded more like a question rather than a statement. Naruto released his head and unclenched his teeth before laying his head back down.

"It accepts your apology. God that hurt, why did you have to call the symbiote that?" He questioned, though he didn't expect an answer so he just lifted up the blanket and patted the spot next to him, signaling her to get back in bed which she did.

"Cause it technically is. It survives by bonding to you and in exchange you get powers. It's a symbiotic relationship." She stated factually. And she was correct, it was a parasite that helped itself and its host rather harm the host or do nothing to the body of the host.

"Well shit." Naruto said, "You're not wrong. But seriously don't call it that anymore, it feels like I'm getting skull fucked by a big brolic black dude named fucking Requis."

Cindy looked at him with an unimpressed face, "Dude you need to stop quoting YouTubers." She said blandly.

He simply grinned at her before responding, "Never." Naruto said before cackling. His girlfriend sighed at him and got out of bed and walked to the door that lead to the living room, "I'm going to the bathroom, you better stop quoting YouTubers when I get back." She said, not even bothering to put on pants since they lived alone.

"No promises!" Naruto yelled out before chuckling lightly. He laid his head back and looked at the ceiling again while speaking to the symbiote, 'So buddy, wanna help me think up a name for you?' He asked his passenger.

'Hmmm. Why not? Anything comes to mind for you?' It asked before saying any suggestions.

'Well first thing we should figure out is do you prefer feminine pronouns or masculine pronouns?' Naruto questioned, it was getting annoying having to refer to the symbiote as an it.

The symbiote thought for a second before answering, 'Masculine, it feels right.'

'Got it my man. Now for names, how about Fred?'

'Denied.' The symbiote said as soon as Naruto finished his sentence as he sputtered at the quick denial.

'What? Why?' Naruto questioned the refusal of that name.

'Because my host, don't you want to be a hero like your mate? We can't be saving humans if it sounds like we're using a regular human name. It could be fun.' He stated while attempting to convince his host to do something entertaining besides Naruto's normal schedule of waking up and going to work before coming home.

'I guess so, are you sure we can just do that though?' Naruto asked with slight excitement about being out in action again.

'The way I see it, we can do whatever we want.' The symbiote said without a care for anything else.

'Heh I think you're right, but we should talk to Cindy first. She has more experience at this than us.' He said with a large grin of excitement before calming down, 'Back to your name though, anything in particular you care about?'

'Not really, if we're going to be serving justice to the criminals of your world I should atleast have something related to it.' The symbiote said lightly.

'Well how about Justice?'

'Going in the right direction but not that.'

'Here we'll do rapid fire, stop me when I hit a good one, Truth, Law, Integrity, Amendment, Judge, Judgment,' 'stop.' Judgment? Alright then, I like that too.'

'Good, then we are in agreement. Judgment is my name and we will judge what to do with your world's trash.'

Before they could continue Cindy came back into the room and stared at Naruto, waiting for him to notice her gaze which he quickly did.

"You done quoting dumb lines?" She asked with an eyebrow raised. Naruto smirked at the question but nodded, "Yeah I'm done." He said.

"Good." Cindy nodded in approval before getting back in bed and grabbing the remote to the TV. She turned the TV on and began to flip through channels before landing on a random movie.

The movie actually caught her attention so she decided to pay attention to it. They sat in silence with Cindy watching the movie and Naruto scrolling on his phone.

"Oh yeah," Naruto muttered, "Hey Cindy, we picked a name for the symbiote while you were in the bathroom."

"Hm really? What is it?" She mumbled, splitting her focus to listen to Naruto and watch the movie at the same time.

"Judgment." He said simply.

"That's a nice name." Cindy said, the information had not yet been processed completely. They sat in silence for a little longer until Judgment decided to speak up to his host.

'Is… is she not gonna say anything else about that?' He questioned in confusion. If he had a head right now he would be scratching it.

'Give her a second. She'll catch on once she thinks about it.'

"Judgment…" Cindy mumbled, "Judgment…" She muttered, "Could be a hero name…" Cindy quickly turned to face Naruto when she realized a possibility.

"Naruto," She said nervously, "You're not planning on becoming a hero… are you?" Cindy asked, hoping he would say no.

"Actually, me and Judgment were talking about. We both think it's a good idea, but I said we should talk to you first. You're the expert here, so I was thinking you could help guide us through the first bit." He said and tried to give her a charming smile to convince her.

Only problem was that she was frowning heavily at that suggestion. It was obvious she was not a huge fan of this idea.

"Naruto I told you my secret because I trust and love you and didn't want to hide it from you anymore." Cindy said firmly while straddling him and pushing him down, "I don't want you to get hurt doing this because you felt you had to do so for me."

He grabbed one of her hands and placed it on his cheek while placing his own hand onto her cheek. She nuzzled into his as he did the same to hers.

"I appreciate your concern Cindy, truly I do, but I am an adult. I fought and killed men and women in the Middle East who would've taken my life and parade my body around like a damn piñata. Trust me, I can handle this." Naruto said gently but firmly. He hadn't spent almost a year in the desert getting shot at and blown up by IEDs for nothing.

Cindy still frowned but it wasn't as heavy anymore, "Naruto these villains are very different compared to what you've faced. They'd cut your face off and make another man wear it before going to see your family to see how long it would take them to notice. These people are sick and I don't think there's a cure for them." She said with a wavering voice.

Naruto looked into her eyes and saw tears welling up in them. He hated seeing that so he moved his hand to the back of her hand and pulled her down for a gentle kiss.

After a short while of holding the kiss in place, Cindy pulled back for air while placing her forehead on his. He grinned up at her before speaking.

"I got this Cindy, especially with this new power I've obtained and definitely if I have you by my side." Naruto said with the utmost confidence.

His girlfriend stared at him before conceding and gave a sigh, "Alright, I'll help you get started." "Yes!" "But not today," "Damn." "I wanna relax today, especially considering we're having dinner at your parents tonight." Cindy said with a shudder before placing her face in the crook of Naruto's neck.

"Oh come on, Cindy. Dinner with my parents isn't that bad." Naruto said, not understanding her problem as she pulled back from his neck.

"Yes it is!" She exclaimed while shaking him, "Your mother hates me!" Naruto rolled his eyes at the statement.

"She does not hate you Cindy."

"She totally does Naruto! We've been together three years and I've never had a pleasant conversation with her. When I try, all I get is mean looks." Cindy said with sadness in her voice, "I just want her to like me." She slumped down until her head was on Naruto's chest again and was looking to the side of the room.

Naruto wrapped his arms around her and placed his chin on her head as he sighed, "Do you want me to talk to her?" He asked gently. Cindy shook her head before replying, "No… it'd feel like a shortcut and I think it would only make things worse. I'd be better off if I just keep trying."

"Okay." Naruto muttered, if that's what she wanted then he would respect her choice. They laid there in silence for a few minutes, enjoying the embrace of the other as much as they could in the moment.

While laying there, Naruto had an idle thought in his head. Soon that idle thought became an insecure thought. It soon festered and became a question he just had to ask, despite the horrible timing.

"Hey Cindy." He said gently.

"Yeah?" She replied.

Naruto sighed, "I know this is probably the worst time to ask this but I felt heavy tension between you and Parker. You said he was your ex but… I could feel it went deeper than that. Could you possibly explain what that was?" He asked.

Cindy sighed, she was hoping she would never have to explain this but it was best to set her boyfriend's mind at ease.

"Yeah… I can explain that." She said as she maneuvered her head to look at Naruto's face, "Over more than a decade ago, I went on a high school field trip to some science lab. We were at a spider exhibit when it happened. Peter was taking pictures with his camera when he suddenly grabbed his hand and was groaning in pain. We were all so focused on him that I never noticed that the mutated spider that bit him ended up biting me on the ankle. That's how we got our powers. I go home and next day there's this random guy who tells me an inter dimensional demon wants to eat me and I get locked away in a bunker for a decade, then I get released by Spider-Man and we end up having sex on a rooftop."

"A rooftop? You're nasty." Naruto said with a look of disgust. Rooftops collected a lot of bird shit over the years. He would never have sex on one.

Cindy slapped his chest at the comment with red cheeks.

"Shut up!" She exclaimed.

"Nasty as hell." He said once more.

"Are you gonna let me continue my story or not?" Cindy said with a deadpan.

"There's more? Christ I was hoping it would end with you having sex on a rooftop so I could leave." Naruto said while trying to wriggle out but his girlfriend latched onto him to prevent him from moving.

"You wanted to know what the tension between us was so let me explain damnit!" She yelled out in frustration at his wriggling. He eventually stopped in annoyance before motioning for her to continue.

"Alright, where was I?" "Nasty rooftop sex" "Right. Stop calling it that. So what we discovered later was that because we were bitten by the same spider, whenever we're within range our spider-sense will go off and it basically creates an almost irresistible attraction to each other. It used to overwhelm us but I was able to learn to resist it, at worst it's a headache but I'd rather have that than accidentally cheat on you because of it." Cindy said before attacking his face with many small kisses all around and ending with a kiss on the lips that they held for a few moments.

The two pulled back from the lip lock and stared into the others eyes with their foreheads touching.

"You're too good for me Cindy, you know that?" Naruto said nothing but the truth of how he felt.

She smiled at him before replying, "No I'm not, I'm just right for you." Cindy captured his lips once which he happily reciprocated. Shortly after they separated, both with large smiles. Though Cindy's turned sly and seductive.

"Wanna fool around some more until we need to leave?" She asked in an alluring voice. Naruto's smile turned to a grin, "Of course. Good thing I'm not working today." He replied before flipping Cindy onto her back.

Naruto pressed his lips against her while grabbing one of her tits, causing Cindy to moan into his mouth. He took this opportunity to slip his tongue into her mouth and wrestle hers down while grabbing her nipple and twisting it like a DJ.

While he was playing with her breast, he slid his free hand down to her nether regions and began to trace her outer labia, causing Cindy to shiver, before inserting his ring and middle finger into her opening and pumping them while using his thumb to rub her clitoris in a circular motion. She arched her back in pleasure before they separated from their lip lock, both out of breath while Naruto stopped moving his fingers but left them where they were.

"Do you wanna keep up with the foreplay or just get right into it?" Naruto asked, though he'd be happy with either option.

Cindy loosely wrapped her arms around his neck, "Fuck me already you red haired animal tamer." She said with lust in her voice. Naruto nodded as he pushed himself up causing Cindy to release her hold on him to turn onto her stomach so she could get into her favorite position with her face down and her ass up.

Once doing so and Naruto now behind her, he began to admire Cindy's heart shaped butt as it was slowly swaying side to side.

"Come on, Naruto," Cindy bemoaned with her cheek flat on the bed, "Stick your cock in me already."

His eye twitched slightly at her statement. Naruto roughly grabbed her left ass cheek and let his fingers sink into her flesh, causing Cindy to bite her bottom lip in pleasure. He leaned close to her ear and whispered into it.

"Did you forget who's in charge during these intimate moments?" Naruto asked with a rasping tone.

"I'm sorry," Cindy mumbled out.

"I can't hear you," Naruto said as he sat up and pulled his hand back, slapping her butt cheek with a harsh clap, as she moaned.

"I'm sorry," she said louder but he still wasn't satisfied and smacked her right cheek this time, leaving a red mark as well, "Oh fuck!" Cindy moaned out once more, "I'm sorry! I forgot my place sir!" She yelled out to his pleasure. Naruto nodded as he soothingly rubbed where he spanked her.

"Good girl," He praised in a reassuring voice, "You know what good girls get don't you?"

Cindy looked towards his eyes to the best of her ability while in this position. She knew the answer but did not dare interrupt him, "They get rewards. Do you want a reward?" Naruto asked, knowing what her answer would be as she nodded frantically.

"Alright then," he leaned forward once more and gently bit on her ear before pulling back and looked at her dripping wet pussy. Naruto smirked at his work as he got between the part of her legs that were lying flat on the bed. He bent forward, but not as far this time, he stuck his tongue out and placed it on Cindy's lower back before slowly moving up her spine as she shivered the whole time before ending at the back of her neck. His member had hardened while doing this so he was prepared to enter her cave but began to rub his phallus between her cheeks instead. She whimpered at this and so desperately wanted him to fuck her already, Cindy wanted to say something but new she would be punished if she did.

Eventually Naruto took pity on her and rubbed his cock on her cunt to lube himself up. Once properly done so, he lined up with Cindy's entrance before plunging himself inside. She loudly moaned at the penetration, already feeling filled up by her lover.

Naruto slowly pulled his hips back until just his tip was left before ramming his length back inside all the way to the base. Cindy let out another pleasure fueled noise as he only pulled out halfway now before pushing back in as his tempo increased.

His hips were a blur now, accompanied by the clapping sound that came from Cindy being pounded into the bed. The clapping filled the room along with Cindy's moans.

"Fuck!" She yelled out, "Harder! Please go harder sir!" He decided to grant the request as he slammed into her even harder. Naruto leaned forward slightly as he wrapped his hands around Cindy's collarbone, to give the feeling of being choked but not in a harmful way, and squeezed slightly. Her pussy tightened at the sensation and began to cum immediately because of it.

This once again ticked Naruto off slightly but he simply kept going until he had reached the edge before pulling out and busting his load over Cindy's back. Once he was finished, he flopped onto his back next to her while she slowly flattened and remained on her stomach.

Cindy turned her head towards Naruto with a dopey smile while he narrowed his eyes, "You came without permission Cindy." He said, annoyance lacing his voice. The smile was quickly wiped off her face as it was replaced with one of horror.

"Oh god, I'm so sorry." Cindy began to apologize, "I was so caught up with it and when you wrapped your hands around my neck it just sorta happened. Could I make it up to you with shower sex?" She said with a seductive voice. Naruto simply stared at her with a blank look before pulling hand back and spanking her, causing Cindy to jump slightly. He put his arms behind his head and closed his eyes.

"No, we need to leave soon anyways. If we shower together then we'll end up late. Go clean yourself first and I'll shower next. Your back is covered with my cum. " Naruto said in a calm voice. Cindy nodded before getting up and walking to the door.

"Cindy," Naruto called out before she left the room, causing her to turn around and stare at his one opened eye, "You'll be punished later, understand?" The statement sent a shiver up her spine but she nodded, "Yes sir." Cindy said in a meek voice before disappearing to the bathroom once again, this time to shower instead.

Naruto sat in silence for a few minutes until Cindy had returned and began changing before he got up to take his turn.

Once he had grabbed a towel and entered the bathroom, Naruto turned the hot water knob and waited for it to heat up.

"Don't make it too hot, my host." The symbiote said as his head appeared on Naruto's shoulder while connected to multiple tendrils to move around, finally making himself known after that escapade, "You could hurt me." Judgment made a separate tendril appear and turned the knob down while turning the cold water up a smidge.

Naruto flicked his eyes towards the head before smirking, "I wouldn't dare dream of doing such a thing buddy. Since you're here let me ask you, were you watching me and Cindy?"

"No," Judgment said while shaking his head, "I closed our mental connection after your mate began soliciting you. I thought I should give you your privacy."

That surprised Naruto slightly but he gained a sincere smile, "Thank you for that, I honestly wasn't expecting that." He said with slight regret for thinking his new friend would be like that.

Judgment shakes his head once again before replying, "Just because we share a body doesn't mean I should intrude on your intimate moments."

"I truly appreciate it my friend." Naruto said as he stepped into the shower, "I'm curious, besides my adrenaline, what else do you eat?" He asked as the symbiote handed him the soap.

"Brains."

The soap fell out of Naruto's hand but he kicked it back up before it hit the ground and caught it in his grasp.

"Excuse me? The hell did you just say?"

"I said brains. I understand how that can confuse you so let me explain. Brains from most mammals contain a compound called phenethylamine which acts as either central nervous system stimulants, or as hallucinogens. I can consume more of it if it's the brains of a human or something larger."

Naruto blinked a few times before gaining his composure, "So I have to either fight a bear, or kill a human to get you the proper amount of this compound?" He asked in confusion.

"No. If you eat this food called choc-o-late I should be fine."

"Had a hard time saying that one?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes. How do you pronounce it?"

"Chocolate. The second O is silent."

"Ah… Chocolate… I hate your language."

The host chuckled before replying, "I know pal. We'll stop and grab some chocolate on the way to my parents house."

"Thank you. If I had to wait any longer then… well let's just say your liver was looking pretty tasty."

"You so much as nibble on my liver and I'll set us on fire." Naruto stated with a fierce glare which the symbiote returned.

"You don't have the balls."

"I'm naked right now, you can see I have the balls. I'm a marine dude, we're fucking crazy. You think setting myself on fire would be the worst thing that's happened to me?" The two continued their staring contest before Naruto made a noise.

"Pfft,"

The host and symbiote started chuckling before they broke down into laughter. The two calmed down shortly after.

"That was fun."

"Indeed. Banter with humans might be my new pastime."

Eventually Naruto finished his shower and Judgment had receded back inside the body. He dried himself off and walked back to the bedroom where Cindy was waiting. She was sitting on the bed while scrolling on her phone. She was wearing blue jeans, a white shirt, and a long black cardigan.

Cindy looked up when she heard footsteps and saw her naked boyfriend. Her eyes drifted downwards and she began to smirk, "Woah, nice cock." She said, as her smirk turned into a shit eating grin.

Naruto deadpanned at her before sighing and walking to the closet. He began rummaging through it and talked without looking towards his girlfriend.

"And you rag on me for saying dumb shit. The fucking Kronk meme, really? Do better." He said with exasperation in voice.

"Oh like that's worse than you quoting YouTubers." Cindy said with a scowl as she stood up. Naruto pulled up his boxers and then his black baggy loose joggers before he tied the strings on them to prevent them from sagging. He turned around with a blue Henley shirt in hand and pulled it on before unbuttoning the top button.

"Mine are funny." Naruto retorted as he put socks on and grabbed his phone and charger before leaving to room with Cindy following.

"No they aren't." She said as she walked to the door and put on her checkered slip-on Vans while Naruto put his feet into his pair of white on black Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage.

"Funnier than yours." He said as he let out a whistle, "Come on Riley! Grab your leash! We're gonna go see grandma and grandpa!" Naruto called out before he heard his dog's nails scratching along the floor as he came running to the door with his leash in his maw and his tail wagging.

Naruto got down on one knee and took the leash before attaching it to Riley's collar. Naruto felt a light slap on the back of his head, turning his head he saw his girlfriend pouting with her arms crossed.

"Mine are way funnier than yours." She said before turning her head away from him. Naruto sighed and stood up while still holding onto the leash. He wrapped his arms around Cindy and brought her close before placing his chin on her head.

"Are you still upset about this thing with my mom?" He asked with a soft tone. Cindy placed her arms around his waist and leaned her face into his chest, she began to mumble incoherently into his torso.

"I can't hear you Hon."

Cindy pulled her head back to speak properly, "I said no I'm not still upset…maybe just a little bit," Naruto stared at her with a raised eyebrow before she sighed, "Yeah… I'm still upset. I don't see why she doesn't like me. Your dad loves me like I'm his own kid but your mom…" Cindy sighed once more before she tried to pull out of his grasp but failed to do so. Looking up at him, she saw his look of irritation but it was not directed at her. Cindy could tell that he was irritated by the fact that his mother was still upsetting his girlfriend like this.

"Alright I've decided, I'm gonna have a talk with her about this. She can't keep acting like that with you." Naruto said with determination as he released Cindy from the hug and grabbed her hand before opening the door, pulling both her and Riley into the hall. He closed the door behind him and locked it, he then started briskly walking down the hall to the elevator, causing both Cindy and Riley to increase their speed slightly to keep up.

"Naruto! Hang on! You don't need to do that!" She said urgently but he simply shook his head, "I obviously do, considering we've been dating for three years and live together and she still hasn't accepted you. I'm pissed off now." Naruto said as he pressed the button to call the elevator before the doors opened shortly considering the elevator was already on that level.

The two humans and dog stepped inside as the male human pressed the ground floor button, the doors closed as Riley sat down and let his tongue flop out.

Cindy placed a hand on Naruto's face and guided it so he was looking right at her.

"I get that you're mad but this could make things worse. Please don't do this." She pleaded in a gentle voice. Naruto's face softened as he leaned into her hand and grabbed the back of it.

"I can't let her keep treating you like that. You've been beside me for three years and while we've had our ups and down, I love you and I hate seeing you sad because of her." Naruto replied in a soft voice.

"I love you too, Naruto." Cindy said with sincerity, "I can tell you're still set on this so let's make a deal. If she's still cold to me by the end of the night then you can have that talk with her, if I can't get her to warm up to me even a little then you can handle it, okay?"

He let out a sigh but nodded, "Okay, we'll do it your way." Naruto said as he closed his eyes.

Cindy smiled before kissing him on the nose, "Thank you Naru." She said as he chuckled lightly.

"What did I say about calling me that?" Naruto said in a light tone. Cindy giggled at him as she pushed him gently as he opened his eyes again, "You said not to but I love calling you that." She said with a smile he found absolutely adorable.

"Heh, I know you do."

Their moment ended when Riley stood on his hind legs and placed his front on both of them as they laughed.

Soon the elevator doors opened and they began their short trip. The couple walked side by side with their hands intertwined with the dog slightly in front of them. The two walked in comfortable silence for a few minutes before Naruto made them make a small detour to Tulio's FoodMart and Deli.

Cindy had a look of confusion on her face and made it known, "Why are we stopping here? I know it's been a bit since you've stopped by but why now?" She asked with scrutiny.

Naruto opened the door as the three went inside before leaning to her ear, "I need to feed the symbiote otherwise he'll eat my liver." He whispered so no one else heard their conversation.

"And what can you buy here that will feed it?" Cindy asked with a tilt of her head.

"Chocolate."

"Chocolate?"

Chocolate."

"Why chocolate?"

Naruto sighed tiredly before replying, "Because it contains a compound that can also be found in brains and I don't really wanna eat people right now."

"Oh… OH. We are so lucky about that fact." Cindy said with wide eyes. Naruto simply nodded as he greeted Blu and Jewel like usual before heading to the counter where he saw both Tulio and Linda, simply chatting.

"Hey you two, how have you been?" Naruto called out with a grin. The married couple turned their heads to see their favorite customers.

"Naruto! Cindy!" Tulio exclaimed excitedly as he hopped over the counter, "It is so great to see you!" His wife simply giggled at his high energy as she made her way around the counter.

"Hi Naruto, hi Cindy." Linda said as she hugged the both of them which they reciprocated.

"Good to see you Linda." Cindy said with a happy tone as Naruto simply patted her on her shoulder before approaching Tulio as the two women started chatting while Riley laid down near the Macaws.

"How's business been Tulio?" Naruto asked curiously.

"It has been good my friend. Business has been booming!" Tulio said with exuberance before chuckling, "So, what brings you by?"

Naruto bent down and grabbed two chocolate bars from the small rack attached to the counter. He held the chocolate up as he spoke.

"Just some chocolate." He said nonchalantly with a shrug of his shoulders. Tulio nodded before he hopped behind the counter again, once scanning the chocolate, Naruto handed him a five dollar bill and got his change.

Naruto held up his fist and bumped it with Tulio, "Wish we could stay longer but we're having dinner with my parents, I'll see you later Tulio." He said after grabbing his chocolate.

"Goodbye Naruto." The store owner said as he waved with a smile.

"C'mon Cindy, we gotta get going. Bye Linda, we'll make sure to stop by the bookstore sometime soon." Naruto said as he passed the two women.

"Oh! Okay! Bye you two." Linda said with a smile.

"Bye Linda!" Cindy said as she walked away to catch up with Naruto.

"Let's go Riley." He said as the dog stood up and walked over so Naruto could grab the leash.

They left the store and made their way down the street once again. Naruto opened one of the chocolate bars and quickly scarfed it down. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve before offering the other bar to Cindy.

"You want one?" He asked, wanting to know if she'd like some or not. She shook her head before gaining a smirk.

"You go ahead, you're eating for two now." Cindy said with a glint of mischief in her eyes.

Naruto huffed at the remark but ate the second bar anyways.

"You might laugh at that fact but I got a new friend." He said with his chest puffed up. His girlfriend giggled at him before bumping him with her hip.

"Whatever you say, big guy." She said with a smile still on her lips.

Naruto's chest deflated but he wrapped his arm around her shoulders as she leaned against him.

"Don't worry about my mom, I still love you and my dad sees you as one of his own." He said in a soft voice.

Cindy simply smiled and hugged him as they were walking.

"I love you too."

The couple and dog had finally arrived at their destination. They were currently standing out front of an average sized home in Brooklyn. This was Naruto's childhood home and the residence of his parents.

Riley was wagging his tail in excitement as he began pulling Naruto forward. The man chuckled at his best friend's excitement as he allowed to be pulled.

Cindy followed the two up the steps before they all stood at the front door. Naruto handed Riley's leash to his girlfriend as he pulled out his keys and used his copy of the house key to unlock and open the door.

He stepped inside as well as Cindy and Riley. Naruto turned his head to Cindy as he closed the door to address her, "Go ahead and let him go." She nodded and took the leash off. As soon as she had done so Riley had taken off to the living room where Minato Namikaze was sitting watching baseball and drinking a beer.

Riley rushed him and jumped on the couch before attacking his face with licks.

"Woah!" Minato exclaimed as he held his beer up to prevent it from being spilled, "Down boy! Down!" The dog continued for a little bit longer before settling down and laying his head on Minato's lap.

The Namikaze smiled and rubbed Riley's head and took a sip of beer. He turned his attention to the doorway where Naruto and Cindy were standing.

"Hey son, hey Cindy, how's it going?" He asked as he leaned back.

"Hi Mr. Minato." Cindy greeted pleasantly, though the older man waved off part of her greeting, "I've told you before, drop the mister from my name. You're basically family at this point." He said with a smile. Cindy simply nodded with a smile of her own.

"Hey dad," Naruto said as he moved to stand next to the couch, "What are you drinking today?"

Minato held up his bottle, "Modelos my boy. Go grab one from the kitchen, your mother is in there." He said while taking another sip.

"No Bud Light?" The younger of the two men asked with a smirk.

His father scoffed at the question, "Hell no, fuck that beer company. Not because of the new spokesperson though, their beer just tastes like piss." Minato said with disappointment.

Naruto chuckled as he walked to the kitchen, "All beer tastes like piss." He called out.

"Well they taste like bad piss!" Minato yelled out as Cindy giggled at their banter before taking a seat.

Naruto entered the kitchen where he saw his mom standing in front of the stove, completely focused on what she was doing. She always got like this when making any kind of meal. The son went to the fridge and grabbed a beer and cracked it open before walking behind his mom and looked over her shoulder. He tapped Kushina once on the shoulder to get her attention but she made a shooing motion. Naruto did it again but once again she tried shooing him away. He took a sip of his drink before setting it down, Naruto began to rapidly poke her in the side until she turned around with anger visible on her face.

"Would you knock it off! Let me cook!" Kushina yelled out before she saw it was her son who was bothering her.

"Naruto!" She exclaimed before pulling him into a hug, "I'm so glad you're here. It's been too long since you've paid us a visit."

Naruto returned the hug as he chuckled lightly, "It hasn't been that long mom," he said before pulling back, "Cindy's here, could you go say hi to her too? I'll take care of the food."

Kushina scowled lightly but nodded. She left her son in the kitchen as she entered the living room.

Cindy noticed her first and gave a greeting, "Hi Mrs. Kushina." She said with an optimistic tone.

"Hello… Cindy." The red headed woman returned with a strained smile.

"Welcome back."
