~ The next morning ~

They woke up and Jiraya, pretending like he didn't witness what went down the night prior, told them that he would be teaching them how to better balance their chakra. After all, they were all pretty bad at using it, all except for Sakura, who had perfect control, but he still decided to put everyone through training, since he wanted to compare her to the other's and get her to demonstrate.

Arriving in the forest, he turned to his students. "Alright everyone, you'll you'll climbing trees today!"

"Eeh-?! But we already learned how to do that at the academy!" Naruto complained, crossing his arms.

"This is no ordinary tree climbing. You'll be achieving it solely using your feet. Sakura, how about you begin?"

"Hai! Ganbare!" She spoke, getting closer to the overly tall tree, then using her hands to form a hand sighn, concentrating her chakra onto her soles. Once she felt that she had enough, she went to the tree, latching her foot onto it, making sure it stayed in place before steadily climbing up, a smug look on her face.

Once she was on the highest, sturdy looking branch, she settled down looking at them and showing her big smile. "Is this enough? Or do you want me to touch the very top of the tree?!" She yelled down, the question aimed at her sensei.

"Nono, that's quite enough! You may get down now!" He yelled up, cupping his hands around his mouth to create a kind of cylinder that would enhance his voice.

After the girl got down, it was the boy's turn, although they failed pretty miserably on their first step. Sasuke did it with too much force, Naruto did it with too little, and Kakashi, although quite capable, forgot to even drive chakra to his soles.

~ After heavy training(bc I'm lazy) ~

They all went home, celebrating in their progress(only 5m 😒) and sitting down at the table, ready to eat.

Now, day for day, they would train, although Naruto would often stay behind and train until morning. That was, until one Fateful day, on which be met a beautiful 'nee san'.

He was sleeping peacfully on the grass, birds surrounding him and chirping, trying to wake him up but failing, until a certain brunette came, bending down to shake the other awake, worried.

"Hey, wake up! It's not good for you to sleep here, you could catch a cold!" A gentle, almost female voice exclaimed, desperately shaking the blonde, in hopes of waking him up.

"Huh..? What..eh-?! Who are you-?!" He exclaimed, scooting away from 'her'. Once he took a closer look however, he calmed down, apologizing. "I'm sorry, you scared me for a second." He stopped, eyeing the basket the woman had brought along. "Hey nee san, are you picking herbs? I can help you with that!" He smiled his signature smile, awaiting her answer.

"Oh, of course! Thank you for the help!" She smiled, helping him get up before going over to the herbal patch she was picking before noticing the blonde.

"Ne.. what's your name?" She asked, awaiting the blonde's answer.

"Oh. I'm Naruto dattebayo! What about you?" He asked, showing her his signature smile, while also admiring her beauty.

"I'm Haku. Say.. I wanted to ask. Why do you train? You already look plenty strong. Are you doing it to protect someone important to you?" She asked, looking at Naruto expectantly.

Naruto had a slight look of confusion, then tilted his head, pondering it over before it clicked. "Yeah! There's a boy I'd really like to prove something to. Why? Do you also have someone like that?" He questioned, looking at her in turn now.

"Yeah.. I think that, if you have someone you want to protect, someone who is precious to you, you can become really strong. Ah.. it's seems we collected all the herbs, thanks for you help!" She spoke, offering her opinion.

As she was walking away, Naruto admired her from behind, until he heard her next words that is. "Oh, by the way, I'm a boy!" He said, and Naruto could only grab both his cheeks in shock, having found out that he was, not only misgendering the guy, but also called him nee-san and not have recieved any sort of clearance.

That's when Sasuke came through the brush, looking at Naruto, then to the leaving boy. "Usuratonkachi, what were you doing out here all night?" He asked, giving Naruto a hand to stand up, seeing as the boy was still seated.

"Sasuke! What are you doing here?" He asked, taking his help.

Sasuke pulled him up and into an embrace, relishing in how they were finally alone again. "Nothing, just came to tell you that breakfast is ready."

"Well then, what are we waiting for?!" He fistbumped the air, getting ready to break from his embrace and run back to their temporary home.

The Uchiha, noticing this, tightened his grip on the blonde, burying his face in his shoulder. "Please... let me stay like this a little longer."

"Oh, uhm.. sure." He spoke, wrappig his own hands around the raven.

They stayed like that for a while, Sasuke then being the first to move away, however, only to steal a kiss from the blonde before hugging him again tightly, then venturing off into the direction he came from.

Naruto stood there, stunned to say the least. And Jiraya. Well, he was there to witness it, scribbling down what he saw into the tomatoxfish cake book.
