All characters belong to Kishimoto.
Hey I'm back, I Know it's been a while, I've been busy but there is also the fact that I'm not a writer. Putting your emotions into a story, making you guys (the readers) feel what the characters are feeling, and making the story itself come alive is really hard for me, that it's why I have huge respect for the people in this site who are good at it cause it's extremely difficult.
So please have patience.
With that being said let's get right to it.
Walking on the corridor that led towards his office, Naruto sighted. Not in fatigue or annoyance like he would usually do, but today it was in peace, he felt relieved even happy, something he hasn't felt in a long time and he knew the reason or the person behind it, Tsunade.
Just the tough of her made him smile, the busty blonde has been his savior, she has helped him forget and erase the pain he felt and still feels. Even tough their first time he felt completely guilty because he had taken another woman to the sacred place he had shared with Hinata, his bed.
But he later understood that this was no ordinary woman but Tsunade, his baa-chan, one of the first people to believe in him.
He always saw her with love, after all she was like a mother to him, so when did he start seeing her as a woman ?. Who knows ?
But he is sure about something and that is that she makes him feel things he never has felt before.
Her body is intoxicating, she is addicting and even tough she uses a genjutsu to make her appear young, he doesn't care and after having her in his arms for many nights, he came to the realization that he was addicted to her.
Naruto loves her and he always has, but not the way he loved Hinata so maybe he was just... grateful that she has been by his side, that she helps him forget or that when he is with her the pain he feels goes away. But who knows ?.
The whiskered blond has always sucked with love, he has always been completely oblivious with the way woman feel towards him so not surprisingly he had no clue about Tsunade's feelings towards him. For him she was like him, just trying to forget about the loved ones she has lost in the past.
"Tsunade senju huh? who knew baa-chan and I would end up like this, screwing each other ?" He though as mischievous smile formed on his face.
With a smile on his face, he opened the door that led to his office, standing there was Shizune, his assistant, she was holding a stack of papers on her hands.
"Morning Shizune-neechan" he exclaimed in a somewhat happy mood. His face turned into a puzzled one when he heard the stack of papers fall to the floor.
Shizune couldn't help but gasp. "Is he... smiling ?" she tough, placing a hand to her mouth.
"Humm, you okay" Naruto asked now worried.
"N-Naruto-sama ?..."
"Would you please drop the sama" he interrupted her, with annoyance in his voice. After picking up the papers she dropped, he made a bunch of clones and immediately started working ignoring the shocked Shizune, "Ah and would you get me some ramen, I'm starving, dattebayo"
"H-Hai h-hokage-sama" she said running out of the door, completely missing the angry glare Naruto gave her for being so formal with him.
"Women" he sighted with small smile on the corner of his lips.
With Tsunade.
Walking through the busy streets of Konoha, Tsunade made her way towards the hospital. With a smile on her red lipsticked lips, she recalled the events of the morning that she had spend with her favorite person. Just the tough of him made her heart fluster.
She felt amazing.
Because Naruto, her Naruto had just said the most beautiful words to her, even tough he just thank her, she could feel the love and passion in each word he had said to her.
He was starting to be the same old lovable idiot, he was starting to open up again to people but most importantly he was starting to love again, and the queen of slugs couldn't help but hope that she will be the one he would give all the love to.
How pathetic right, Tsunade Senju, falling in love with someone several decades younger than him (36 years younger than her to be exact) but she stopped caring about a lot things, because when she is in his arms is enough to make all insecurities go away.
Just remembering the night before made her cheeks burn red and her smile grew even wider, now she really looked like an idiot. She couldn't wait to see Naruto again, maybe she would go visit him to his office later today and maybe later at night he could...
"Lady Tsunade" her daydream came to an end when she herd the voice of a woman she knew too well.
The busty woman turned around and saw her former student, Sakura. She was walking towards her, with one hand waving at her and the other one resting on her pregnant belly. The pink hair woman had a smile on her face. With a few weeks away from giving birth to a baby girl, Sakura couldn't be any happier.
Sakura immediately noticed the smile Tsunade had. Seeing her master in such a good mood hasn't been a rare occurrence lately, but today she was... overjoyed, it was the first time seeing her like this. Joy was evident in her eyes and the aura she was transmitting was a welcoming and warm one, something very, very unusual of her.
Sakura frowned when the smile on the sannin's face turned into a shit-eating grin, much like her whisker teammate's one. She squealed when she felt Tsunade wrap her arms around her, putting her into a crushing hug (without hurting the baby of course).
"Hey Sakura, how is the baby doing" she asked.
Ok now she was speechless, Tsunade never smiled like that, never the less give hugs. Now she was worried or rather scared.
"T-Tsunade-sama?, w-why are you in s-such a...good mood?" Sakura asked as she broke the hug, with a worried smile on her face.
"What are you saying Sakura ?" She said "I'm always like this"
"Yes of course" she said with a nervous laugh "But never this happy, what made made you be this joyous today?"
After seeing that she was indeed in such a happy mood she decided to calm down, giving a sigh, putting her hands on Sakura's shoulders, she looked up to her eyes and with a small sweet smile on her delicate face she said to her.
"Naruto, he...he is starting to open up again, he is starting to be his old self and that makes me very happy" Tsunade then lowered her face.
"That's excellent news" She exclaimed, her eyes lit up with happiness in them "I knew you were the right person to pull him out of his depression Tsunade-sama"
At the sound of this Tsunade lifted her face, "M-me ?" she asked with curiosity.
"Of course master, you Understand Naruto better than anyone" her tone became soft "You have both lost precious people and that makes you understand what he is going through, plus you are like a mother to him"
"Like a mother huh ?" she tough, "Yeah, i guess you're right, now let's go, we're going to be late" Tsunade said as she dragged the pregnant woman towards the hospital.
Later that day.
Naruto hated paperwork, he hated being tuck at his desk. While being the most powerful ninja in the village (Only Sasuke could match him), the hokage was stuck on his desk doing paperwork.
Even when creating clones to help him, the stacks of paper just keep coming. How did Kakashi managed to do this, every time he came to his office he was reading his "icha icha series", he should ask him one day what his secret was.
Sighting, he continued to write about the regulations that are going to take place in an upcoming charity event which goal was to help fund orphanages in the village.
He kept working for hours, until a stack of paperwork was plopped into his desk, looking up he saw his assistant and counselor, Shikamaru.
"I see that you're working hard today" he remarked.
"I always am" The Hokage said going back to completing his paperwork.
"yeah right" the lazy Nara scuffed looking up to the sunset that was displayed from the windows around the hokage's office.
"So... you came here just give me more paperwork ?" The blonde asked.
Looking at him, Shikamaru sighted. He was planing to see with his own eyes if what Shizune had told him this morning was true.
"Shizune told me about how you were acting this morning,... Are you okay ?" The Nara head asked.
Dropping his pen, Naruto lifted his head to make eye contact with his friend.
"She did huh ?"
"Yes" he assured.
Averting his gaze went towards the ground, Naruto sighted, getting the courage he needed to ask his friend for help.
"Shikamaru you are my counselor and you're always there to give advice to me as your hokage" the blonde lifted his head meting the Nara's gaze with seriousness "but this time I need it as Naruto... your friend"
"this is gonna be troublesome" he tough. " and with what specifically you need advice with ?"
"w-well umm y-you see it's... I... uhh" the blonde struggled to let the words out of his mouth.
For the hundredth time Shikamaru sighted.
"Just spill it out already"
"I'm seeing someone" Naruto quickly blurted.
Lifting his head from the ground, Naruto stared at the man in front of him, he seemed to have a serious yet thoughtful expression, the one he always has except there was something he couldn't identify. Suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of the Nara's lips.
"that explains the marks on your neck" Shikamaru said as he pointed towards his neck.
"wh-what m-marks are y-you talking about" he stuttered, quickly putting his hands on his neck as tried to hide all the love marks his lover had left on him on their previous encounter.
Giving a long sight, the Nara was running out of patience.
"who is it ? "
"well I-I"
"Naruto when you grow a pair of balls you know where to find me" and with that Shikamaru turned around and headed towards the door.
"Tsunade" Naruto said, his voice above a whisper, so soft that the raven head almost didn't hear it, but he did.
Stopping his paste abruptly, a last tough passed trough his mind before having to listen to his hokage's love life. "troublesome"
