The Cursed Sharingan

Chapter 19

Disoriented. That's the best way to describe how Naruto woke up. The blonde immediately noticed something off about that morning. She felt tired and sore, like she didn't rest at all! Her eyes were gritty and her mouth dry. The blonde huffed loudly. For some reason it felt like she was back in Konoha during the summer temperature peak. Whining, she attempted to push her blanket off, only to realize that there wasn't one to begin with. Way past annoyed now, she sat up angrily. Sleepy baby blues blinked slowly. This was not her room. Why did she sleep in the boys' room? Her eyes drifted around the room lazily. Sighing with frustration she rubbed harshly at her face. At that moment she looked down and froze. 'I'm naked' her thoughts were slow and stilted.

'Look beside you' was the reply she received from her helpful fox-shaped cell mate. His voice was oddly amused and quite dry.

Naruto obliged the ancient being and choked at the sight. Her face turned beet red. 'That actually happened! How did I forget?!' she screamed internally.

'Due to your subpar genetics, you are lacking in intelligence. In this case you are quite fortunate. I wish I could permanently forget the events of last night and this morning. The two of you rutted four times. I have seen animals less busy. You feel unrested because you in fact, did not rest. You certainly lost any scruples you previously had. There will be no way to deny your feelings any longer at least. Your self-denial was quite aggravating' the strongest Bijuu replied casually, radiating smugness.

Naruto's face turned redder. 'Okay I do remember all of it actually! Is it really necessary to insult me so much? Are you glad I gave into my feelings or pissed that I did? Make up your mind!' she snapped, beyond embarrassed. At Kyuubi's chuckle she sighed. The blonde turned to look at Itachi. He looked peaceful in his rest making her face soften. Her eyes trailed down his naked form. The teen bit her lip. 'Kami-sama that has to be illegal' she groaned, stomach curling with lust. She slapped her cheeks twice and jumped out of the bed. First on the agenda, she badly needed a shower and food. She could figure the rest out after!

The genin kunoichi felt a bit silly streaking in her own house, but she made it to her bathroom without any incidents. After an extremely hot shower that felt heavenly on her sore muscles, she dressed in a grey t-shirt and blue shorts. Morning absolutions complete, she headed downstairs to make breakfast.

Itachi woke up alone and wasn't too happy about it. Sighing, he could only hope that Naruto didn't have any regrets. He dragged a hand down his face, feeling anxious and frustrated. 'She was more than willing and we did talk about things. Yet I still feel so insecure about where we stand' he mused, black eyes staring at the ceiling.

The dark-haired male rolled out of bed lithely. He groaned softly, feeling achy. 'I feel like I completed one of Oto-san's intense training sessions' he sighed, rolling his shoulder. Itachi didn't bother dressing. He grabbed some clean clothes and went to Naruto's room.

Soft dark eyes checked in on all three of his sleeping children in passing, as he made his way to the en-suite bathroom. He showered and dressed quickly, wanting to talk to Naruto before the children awoke.

He paused in the doorway of the kitchen, observing the mother of his children quietly. Naruto seemed to be almost finished making breakfast. She was wearing a pair of the tiny shorts she seemed to favour and a comfortable looking t-shirt. Her long hair was down and darker with water. The sunlight streaming through the kitchen window highlighted her perfectly and made her jewel hued eyes shine.

Itachi didn't want to overthink things, but he wasn't sure how to behave now. Their relationship had evolved so much, so quickly, but he didn't want to just assume where they stood. His internal debate was ruined as she finally noticed him.
