A/N: I apologize for the wait, but I do have other interests beyond writing and so I don't spend every second of the day working on stories.
I decided to give a decent glimpse of Naruto and Sakura's first time between the sheets.
Naruto was staring out his bedroom window when Sakura came back from the bathroom, having removed her makeup.
"It is a beautiful night out, I loved watching those fireworks with you." She said softly, joining him by the window.
"I'm glad you had a good time tonight, Sakura," Naruto said quietly still standing just inside his bedroom doorway.
"It was very romantic, you set the mood so perfectly tonight even the free fall… I've never felt such a rush and it's still got me on a high."
Sakura captured Naruto in a passionate kiss tugging both his lips every so often with her own; she steered him quickly onto his bed; staring into his blue eyes was like getting lost in the ocean. She took off his shirt and undid the button on his pants, taking them off before slowly touching his bare chest and capturing his mouth; she tasted ramen, and somehow, knowing the story behind Naruto's endless love of the noodle dish, gave her a new appreciation for it. They both stopped kissing to catch their breath.
"All the time I spent worried about telling you that I am in love with you seems so stupid now." He said quietly.
"I was worried too, Naruto, I feel overwhelmed by how you make me feel, it was easier not to face it." Sakura admitted. "It's odd realizing that, but it makes me so ready to have sex with you." She breathed against his lips, cupping his face.
"Right, I still hope I don't screw up tonight." He said nervously.
"I'm in no rush, Naruto, it's not like I've had sex before, we're both virgins." She intimately reminded him. "We'll figure it out together." She assured him.
"I'm just glad you're smarter than me." He laughed.
"Will you unzip me?" Sakura asked very softly.
Naruto unzipped the dress Sakura wore, kissing her back, she hummed approval. "Thank you, Naruto." She said gratefully, facing him again.
Sakura let her dress fall casually off her chest and resumed making out with Naruto while he slid it from her waist, and it fell to their feet…
"Wow, I can't believe this is happening." He said, hoping that he didn't have a stupid look on his face.
"I think I can help with that." She whispered playfully.
"I thought you had more on under the dress." He admitted.
She shrugged. "No, this particular dress doesn't look good with a bra and since I wasn't wearing a bra anyway, I ditched underwear too, judging by the grin on your face that was a good idea." Sakura blushed, both cheeks as pink as her hair
"Sakura, tell me what to do for you." He said eagerly.
"We can't go from zero to one hundred right away. We need to warm up first." She cautioned calmly.
"I feel plenty warm already." He said excitedly.
"Yeah, so do I, but if we don't start slowly, I'll be in pain, and you might be too, especially if you're not used to getting erections."
"Uhh, okay." He said blankly.
Inner Sakura quickly realized that a technical explanation would be necessary. "Right, he never had parents for this talk and Jiraya, well he was known as pervy sage for a reason. I doubt Naruto asked him about the birds and the bees in the two years he left with him. Honestly, I doubt he's asked anyone about this over the years. Come on Sakura keep it simple stupid… You're a medical ninja, just tell him the finer details."
"It's when sex organs get bigger and become hard in response to stimulation. Most of the time that's touching, but it can happen because you're aroused emotionally or sexually too." She explained calmly.
"Oh, okay, I didn't know that there was a fancy word for when that happens. I never got a sex talk, no parents, and I wasn't going to ask around." Naruto admitted shyly.
"It's okay Naruto, I don't care. Safe sex isn't just about using protection when it's available. You have to let me know when you don't like something or if you have questions, in fact be mad if you don't get a little selfish... Our sex life, and our entire relationship isn't just about me. You are equally important, don't forget that okay." Sakura looked very calm but insistent all the same."
"I don't like being selfish, but I know that look in your eyes, you had it both times we talked after everything that happened in the Land of Iron." He said seriously.
She nodded. "I don't want you swallowing your voice and feelings in any part of our life together the way you did when we were only squad mates, promise me that you will be selfish sometimes, Naruto." Sakura looked serious too.
"I promise, Sakura." He nodded. "So, what now?" He asked, he was going to follow her lead.
"Well for starters," Sakura slid Naruto's boxers off. "You don't need those anymore tonight." She said softly as the last of any clothes fell on the floor.
They both embraced in quiet laughter, leaning firmly against one another and started kissing, soon their hands roamed in hair and along each other's body while their tongues were busy in one another's mouth, by the time they came up for air, both Naruto and Sakura were slowly panting as heat rose between them.
"I think… I understand what you meant…about getting warmed up, ya know." He said in a whisper.
They kissed again, Sakura looked behind her briefly and spoke against Naruto's lips. "Your door, I'll close it. I'm not sure if these walls are thin but other people won't appreciate getting woken up from us having sex;"
When she walked away, it was impossible not to notice his growing erection and his small moan when it lost contact with her skin. Sakura had to admit that it felt good and left her anticipating when she would be fully occupied with it.
As fast as she ran to close Naruto's bedroom door, her walk back to him on the bed was the complete opposite, slow and steady... She took in his body. With nothing on, his physical attractiveness was in much sharper focus… Tall, and in fact, taller than her now. It amazed Sakura how small he once was when they were little kids, the contrast between that sad child and this grown man stole her breath as she looked at Naruto. Bright yellow hair that she was sure could light a pitch-black room. Blue eyes that in her opinion were easier to lose oneself in than any genjutsu. Muscles that were well defined but not overblown and obvious assets to handle with extreme care… They made eye contact when she was halfway back to him, he was smiling from ear to ear, but there was a light in those blue eyes that had not been present until now. That look screamed of a constant attraction and never-ending devotion to her. Even now, Sakura wondered why Naruto Uzumaki would be forever in love with a girl as remarkably ordinary as her…
"I know what he's told me, and about the way, I've changed his life, but why does he find me so beautiful, love the things about my body and personality that I hate… oh Naruto, I wish I could know what you think when you look at me like that…?"
With as much privacy assured as possible, she led him to the bed and saddled herself on Naruto's lap…
"It's good to be alone with no interruptions," Sakura said softly.
"Yeah, now I can kiss more than your mouth without worrying about people popping up out of nowhere." He said playfully.
"Great minds do think alike. The only question is where I should start with you." She said with a seductive voice.
"Yeah, and I'm very kissable, so I see why you can't resist." Naruto bragged with a modest grin.
She smiled in amusement. "Well, it's time we use this bed then." Sakura began kissing him on his neck and collarbone, each lasting longer than the other, making Naruto's breath quicker. Then Sakura pushed Naruto to his back and slowly lavished his chest with longer kisses.
Naruto's voice was low and gritty. "Sakura, you are so special. How did I get so lucky?"
Sakura paused, smiling as she lifted her head to look at Naruto. "You are special; I've never known anyone so readily kind and has such unwavering faith in people as you." She became absentminded while playing with Naruto's hair affectionately. "I'm still trying to figure out why you think I'm beautiful. I'm not like other girls."
"Sakura, there is no comparison; you being you is perfect, and I wouldn't change anything about you." He said calmly.
"Even with my giant forehead and flat as pancakes boobs," Sakura said dully.
"There's genius in that head of yours, Sakura, and in case you didn't know, I? like pancakes." He looked at her mischievously.
Sakura was overcome with emotional laughter. "Oh Naruto." She smiled, blushing shyly. "You are such a knucklehead, but you're my knucklehead, and you always make me feel better, especially about myself. I hope I get used to seeing myself through your eyes."
"I think I can help with that." He told her intimately.
Naruto gently flipped Sakura over, so he was hovering on top of her; he held her face and met her eyes while an eternity seemed to last between them, then he merged his body with hers. Sakura wasn't quite prepared for how it would feel having Naruto completely on top of her. The warmth quickly became overwhelming in the best possible way…
"I am… thrilled, Naruto." She relished how slowly Naruto kissed her body.
Sakura sucked in a breath when he gave all of his attention to her breasts, with one in his mouth while squeezing her other; it was not long before he started working her nipples between his tongue and his fingers, switching every so often until both were hard and Naruto's every move left her whole chest tingling, which was an incredible feeling for her.
"Naruto," Sakura said gently.
Something wrong? Want me to try something else?"He asked lifting his head to lock eyes with her.
Sakura shook her head, emotion all over her face. "The opposite…for so long, I didn't feel real love but you changed all that, thank you, Naruto."
"Sure thing Sakura, but are you okay?" He asked gently.
"Yeah more than okay. I'm ready to see what all the fuss is about." She told him quietly.
Sakura rolled them over so she was on top and aligned herself so that she had easy access, carefully taking hold of his erection. Naruto was glad Sakura led the occasion because his nervous excitement would have ruined their first time having sex. She guided the tip inside her, and they both gave a small moan of satisfaction.
"Sakura…" He said in a slow quizzical voice.
"Hmm?" She asked contentedly.
"You're pretty wet." He said curiously.
"Oh," She gave a small laugh, "I know what you're probably thinking, but that's just what happens to girls."
"Isn't that annoying?" He asked sympathetically.
Sakura shrugged. "As a woman, you get used to it. We get wet, it's to help prevent infection, it's not a good thing if the vulva is dry."
"Oh that's what it's called on women, that's funny." He said, laughing.
"It's the medical term." She laughed.
"I guess it's good for me that you know all the finer details." He said.
"We'll talk more after, let's just see how this goes. We've waited long enough." Her eyes sparked with lust.
There was a fast building heat that fueled Sakura as her body became more and more accustomed to having Naruto's erection inside of her; every inch made her moan in increasing satisfaction.
"You are so hot!" Naruto said quite huskily.
"You're plenty hot yourself." She smirked at his increasing lust.
With Sakura leading the way, they slowly found a rhythm together, nothing over ambitious, in fact, they were both sure that things wouldn't last that long…
Naruto went over the edge first, the constant movement left him weak and it just felt so great, there was no real way to explain the satisfaction of being completely inside of her now. Naruto's release brought Sakura to hers, she felt overwhelmed by the instant euphoria of being filled with his sperm, the warmth that filled her made Sakura feel utterly content. She tightened around him and their movement became wildly uneven; both of them were too overwhelmed from having sex and of no longer being virgins that technique was the last thing on their mind. After a few minutes of heavy breathing and calling each other's names through their climax together, Sakura slumped clumsily against Naruto and they rolled onto their sides, looking at each other with smiles.
"I could get used to that." Sakura said feeling exhilarated.
"Me too, ya know!" He said enthusiastically. "Do you think we did it the right way?" He asked with a thoughtful smile.
Sakura chuckled. "I have no idea but it was fun so who cares!"
"Yeah you're right. Besides, it was great to hear you scream my name out of joy, instead of desperation." He told her softly.
Sakura smiled, blushing. "That has been an embarrassing habit of mine." She sheepishly admitted. "But I'll be pulling my weight in the war, right alongside you." She sounded determined.
"You can do anything, Sakura; I've always known that; I just feel compelled to protect you," Naruto said affectionately.
She put her hand on his chest, looking deeply into his always striking blue eyes. "I love you for that, Naruto, which is why I will do everything I can to protect you."
He held her face. "We'll protect each other."
Part of them knew that they should be worried about a pregnancy and that it was stupid have had unprotected sex but tonight felt too perfect that desire had overruled their common sense to make sure they had contraception.
"We probably shouldn't have done this." Sakura said subdued.
"Are you regretting— "
"No, absolutely not!" She said sharply. "I just mean that we should have waited until we could buy protection." She clarified hastily. "If I'm pregnant things are going to get very complicated." She sighed.
"Are you?" Naruto asked, grabbing her hand.
"It doesn't work that way, Naruto. I couldn't possibly know if I am right after having sex. It will be a few weeks at least." Sakura laughed lightly.
"So then there's no point in worrying right now?" He asked.
"Not for about a month, but if it helps my gut tells me I won't be pregnant. I can't explain it but I know I'm not." She said calmly.
"If you are, I'll be here." He assured gently.
"I knew that already, but it's nice to hear." Sakura looked at him appreciatively.
"I hope I can go longer next time. My shadow clones last longer than our first time together." He said with exasperation.
"I think that's a stretch, Naruto, the sex was definitely longer than you think, I was shouting quite a bit by the end." Sakura blushed heavily.
"So your saying it can only get better!" He said with renewed enthusiasm.
"Hell yeah!" She grinned. "But for now, but since I'll be staying in the hospital indefinitely starting tomorrow, I think we should get to sleep."
"What you are doing for me, it means a lot, thanks Sakura."
Sakura nodded and kissed him tenderly, Naruto pulled his only blanket around them and Sakura laid on top of him with her head on his chest.
"I love you, Naruto." She said quietly.
"I love you too, cherry blossom." He said affectionately.
They fell asleep quick, and no regret could be found on Naruto and Sakura's smiling faces as they drifted into sleep together...
A/N: I try, no matter the medium to keep things like this realistic between characters. I see too many people in too many fandoms treat characters like sex gods, particularly with younger characters. That just annoys me, so I always try to make sex at least somewhat realistic between characters. In this case, I think Naruto would be largely ignorant, not necessarily of the mechanics, but what happens to the body in response to sex. I was purposefully about including Naruto's somewhat dense nature here.
The next one will be on its way sooner than later; thanks and review, politely, of course.
