In the name of love (original version)

Chapter 7

Nᴀʀᴜᴛᴏ's POV

After I flipped off pervy sage I closed my eyes to go to sleep, but he decided to pester me more by opening the window and saying "Naruto! that's no way to treat your grandpa!" I turned to him and in the calmest and sweetest voice I could muster "𝙸 𝚍𝚘𝚗'𝚝 𝚐𝚒𝚟𝚎 𝚊 𝚜𝚑𝚒𝚝, 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔, 𝚘𝚛 𝚍𝚊𝚖𝚗 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚊𝚛𝚎 𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚞𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚖𝚢 𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚌𝚒𝚘𝚞𝚜 𝚜𝚕𝚎𝚎𝚙 𝚏𝚘𝚛 𝚠𝚑𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚛 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔 𝚜𝚑𝚒𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚐𝚘𝚝 𝚝𝚘 𝚜𝚊𝚢 𝚜𝚘 𝚎𝚡𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚎 𝚖𝚎 𝚏𝚘𝚛 𝚋𝚎𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚙𝚒𝚜𝚜𝚎𝚍 𝚘𝚏" I said. I then closed my eyes and cuddled into Shika to atleast rest my eyes. I felt Shika chuckle at something but I was too tired to care. I soon felt sleep take me and with that I was out like a light.

Sʜɪᴋᴀᴍᴀʀᴜ's POV

Naruto nuzzled into my side after he told off Jiraiya. I chuckled at Jiraiya's look of otter shock. After Naruto fell asleep I decided to see what Jiraiya wanted. "So what did you need ℙ𝕖𝕣𝕧𝕪 𝕤𝕒𝕘𝕖?" I questioned, he sighed "I was wondering if you and Naruto wanted to train with me, we'd be traveling around due to my work-" "when do we leave" I cut him off. He took a minute to process my reaction "As soon as Naruto's healed" he replied. "So when he wakes up?" I said, he nodded and came fully in the room. He closed the window and sat on the chair against the wall. I layed down and as soon as I did Naruto cuddled into me even more. I wrapped my arms around him and fell into a peaceful sleep.

Jɪʀᴀɪʏᴀ's POV

Shikamaru fell asleep cuddling Naruto and I swear it was the sweetest sight. Just as I thought that my 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒚 wife, Tsunade came in the room. "So, what's going on" I casually asked, I could tell she was pissed about something and I didn't know what. "C'mon talk to me, please?" I begged, she turned to me and sighed, signaling she was calming down. "It's just, I heard your conversation" she said, she didn't need to finish for me to understand what she meant. I stood up and hugged her, as soon as I did she began to cry on my shoulder, gently nuzzling closer to me. "I'm j-just so worried, what if you d-don't come back" she sobbed, "I promise I'll come home safe and sound" I told her though we both knew that I might not. "Th-thats what M-minato said a-and then he d-died" she sobbed, the memory of our sons death was still a fresh wound on our hearts. I hugged her tighter and whispered sweet nothings in her ear. Once she calmed down I menuvered us to the chair and pulled her on my lap. She curled up and nuzzled into my neck. "I just miss him so much, I miss them so much it hurts" she said, "I know, I do too" I said. I ran my fingers through her hair the way she always loved. "Y'know he look just like them" I said, she giggled and looked up at me. "Ya he does, he reminds me of Kushina alot" she said with a laugh. I chuckled,"and he sometimes acts like Minato when he was a kid, y'know earlier I tried to talk to him and he told me off" I said, "he sounded just like Minato in the morning" I said, and she giggled. "Oh I remember the way he would fuss when he had to get up for school, the only way to get him up was to mention Kushina or his favorite breakfast" she recounted. We went on and on talking about the past for hours and didn't even notice that the sun had set nor that Naruto and Shikamaru were awake and listening. I miss the good old days.

//Authors note//
I'm sorry for not posting for so long I was feeling down and I had no motivation to do anything, also I thought this would be a kinda cute, wholesome chapter after what happened in the last one.
