Miyu's pov.

I squinted my eyes open as light flooded the room. With a groan, I turned over, snuggling deeper into my warm pillow. It oddly smelled just like Naruto. A chuckle rumbled, and the weight around my waist tightened, bringing me closer to the pillow.

Wait...

Chuckle. Weight around my waist. Smells like Naruto.......

BING! BING! We have a winner!

I opened my eyes fully to see a certain blonde watching me, a small smile on his lips. I could feel my face heat up as I took in the whole situation.

1. My blonde boyfriend is in the same bed. Well... actually I could care less about that... scratch number one.

1-redo. My blonde boyfriend is curled around me, arm around my waist and legs tangled with mine.

2. The weirdo was watching me sleep.

3. ...... he's weird....

4. ............. Hey where's Pervy sage?

"Good morning, love." He chuckled seeing my flushed cheeks. I made a noise and closed my eyes again, cuddling into Naruto's warm body. "How do you feel?"

"Mm." I whined. Fingers traced over the skin of my upper back, just below my neck, making me shiver.

"You had a fever last night." Naruto said, his fingers traced the top of my shirt. I shrugged, tossing my arm around his waist. "Don't ignore me, missy." He frowned, but moved, nudging his nose against mine. "We do need to get up."

"Don't wanna." I muttered, my cheek pressed against his bare chest. Naruto chuckled, and shifted, propping himself up on his elbow.

"To bad, love. Come on, up." Naruto grinned and pulled me up with him, settling me in his lap. "We have things to do today."

"Like what?" I asked curiously, wrapping my arms around his neck, my legs straddling his waist.

"Well, Pervy sage said there's a festival going on in town. He left to find that lady before you woke up." Naruto pursed his lips."But before that, I need a good morning." He puckered his lips, staying right where he was.

I squealed and looked away when he made kissy fish lips. "Naruto!" I laughed, covering his mouth with my hand. "Quit it! That's so weird."

"But, Miyu! I need my good morning kiss!" Naruto whined, maneuvering around my hand.

I sighed. "Close your eyes." Naruto did so without hesitation and smiled. I leaned in ever so closely..... and pecked his cheek before springing from his lap and going to get dressed. His eyes shot open and he frowned, not looking very impressed as I pulled out some clothes from my bag.

"That was not what I wanted." He stated. I giggled and was about to disappear into the bathroom as I answered.

"You never specified where." I shut the door and turned to dress. I knew id be getting it later. Oh well.

I stripped and pulled on my clothes, I decided on my usual clothes. Meh. I know, boring.

I brushed my hair and let it down before stepping out and staring at my pouting boyfriend. "N-Naruto?" I called his name, standing directly in front of him. Naruto turned away, refusing to look at me. "Come on, Naruto."

He shook his head and closed his eyes. I huffed out a breath and placed my hands on his cheeks. I pressed my lips to his, and it seemed he responded almost immediately, standing, arms winding around my waist pulling me closer and a hand at the back of my head, making me unable to pull away.

He deepened the kiss, taking his time exploring my mouth. And then he pulled away, pressing his forehead against mine. I knew my cheeks were flushed red. I could feel the heat.

"Much better." Naruto grinned, nudging his nose against mine. I shot him a half hearted glare, but sighed in defeat. "Now come on. We're supposed to meet Pervy sage in front of the gate."

I pursed my lips, and turned to leave when Naruto pulled me back into a kiss.

"Miyu." I hummed in response, eyes gazing into Naruto's. "I love you." He whispered in my ear. My heart melted into mush and I swear, I couldn't stop the blush if I tried.

"I love you to, Naruto." I smiled, placing my hand inside his as we left the motel room.

***************

"There you two are!" We stopped hearing a very familiar voice. "Its about time. I thought you'd never get out of bed." Jiraiya stepped in front of us and grinned. "How do you feel, Miyu?"

"I'm fine now." I answered, eyeing the old man.

"I was beginning to worry. You were crying in your sleep." Jiraiya stated evenly, frowning. I was crying in my sleep? "You only somewhat calmed when Naruto got into bed with you."

"Oh." I whispered. "I'm okay though."

"Alright." Jiraiya changed the subject, much to my relief. "We're going to be in this town for a day or two. Maybe three. Naruto, I want you to enjoy yourself, because we begin your training tomorrow."

"Alright!" Naruto grinned, moving and wrapping his arms around my waist.

I blanched at Jiraiya. "Please don't tell me your going to teach him a spinning ball of wonder." The man froze.

"How'd you know?!" My eyes widened. I sighed, rubbing my temples.

"A headache so early in the morning. Woop de doo." I closed my eyes and continued rubbing. "C'mon, Naruto."

I turned and started walking, slipping from his arms. There was a short conversation behind me before Naruto came into step next to me.

"Are you hungry?" I nodded. We bought like.... a ton of food and settled in a grassy patch underneath a tree just outside the village.

"Naruto...?" I stopped mid-bite, looking down.

"What is it? Are you not feeling well?" Naruto cupped my chin and tilted my face up before pressing his forehead to mine.

"Its... not that." Naruto pulled away, frowning. "Did yesterday... was it real? Did Sasuke really...  face Itachi?"

His eyes widened before he frown, looking down at his hands. "Yeah. It really happened." Tears stung my eyes and I fought to hold them back.

"Oh."

"Is that Itachi guy really your brother?" I nodded once, looking back down at the ground.

"He's our older brother. I...we, haven't seen him in four years. Since the massacre." I explained a little. "I knew it would happen one day. I just didn't expect it to be so soon."

"What?"

I glanced at Naruto. "Sasuke made a vow after the massacre. On that day, he swore he would avenge our clan, and kill Itachi." I stated. "That's who he meant during the introductions, when we first met Kakashi-sensei."

"I see." Realization dawned on my blonde boyfriend.

"Yes. He swore he would live his life for one purpose and one purpose only. Kill our older brother." I grimanced, the thought of Itachi dying making my heart stop.

"But what about you?" He asked. I frowned.

"What about me?"

"Do you want him dead?" Naruto asked point blank. I let out a breathy laugh.

"That's not exactly how it works, Naruto." I explained. "I don't get to make a choice."

"Why?"

"Because.." I sighed. "I heard from sensei that he told you everything right?" Naruto nodded. "That's part of it. No ones has ever given me a choice in large affairs. And even if I did have a choice it won't matter. The decision is already set."

"But what does that have to do with your decision? That didn't answer the question at all." I let out a small laugh.

"I had a feeling you would fully get it." I said. "Naruto." My expression turned serious. "It doesn't matter what I want. Sasuke wont listen. And Itachi is to stubborn to change his mind once its set." Naruto's jaw dropped a bit. " You see? It doesn't matter what I want. It doesn't matter how much i plead, or cry, neither of my brothers will change."

"That's dumb." Naruto stated as he yawned, and fell back onto the grass.

"I know. But that's the Uchiha superiority complex along with the stuck up-ness." I let out a sigh, laying down, propped on my elbow so I was on my side,facing Naruto. "Thankfully, I don't need to worry about any of that."

"Why's that?"

"I take after my mother in attitude. Or so I've been told." I moved, placing my ear over his heart. The organ beat inside his chest, just barely speeding up at our closeness.  "Naruto?"

"What is it, love?" My cheeks heated at the now regularly used nickname.

"I love you." I whispered, pulling myself up, my hand laying directly over his hear. Naruto pushed some hair behind my ear and leaned up on his elbow.

"I love you, Miyu. Kami only knows how much." Naruto said. "I'm sorry."

"What for?" I frowned, but didn't pull away as his fingers trailed over my cheek.

"For not being able to help Sasuke. That had to be painful to watch." I smiled a little.

"But its nothing you need to concern yourself about. Like Sasuke said before. Its between the three of us." I said, " Besides," Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Its better like this. You won't get hurt by my brainless brothers." I laughed.

Naruto fell back in a laughing fit. "Did you really just call both your brothers brainless?!" I smiled watching as my blonde tried to calm himself, until he collapsed on his back. I leaned over him, gently kissing his lips, silently thanking him.

Naruto smiled into the kiss and rolled me onto my back, his body between my legs and leaning over me.

I couldn't help but gasp when a hand slithered down my side to my bottom.

"I love you, Miyu." Naruto stated in between kisses. My cheeks were flushed red, and my heart felt ready to leap from my chest."Kami, you don't know how much I love you."

"I love you too, Naruto."
