Author note: I just want to say. I hate Naruto's world building. It's supposed to be set in feudal Japan, yet somehow they have things like TV, Camara, phones, etc. I would just love to know, Masashi Kishimoto perspective on the technological advancement of his world. But it's his world, I'm just borrowing it. So, without further more:

Chapter 16

*It's been a few weeks since the public incident. And after anko did a little visit to izumi's salon. Safe to say any rumor about her and itachi died out. We see hiruzen and Naruto at the park. Naruto was spending quality time with his grandfather while anko did some deep cleaning on the apartment. They were watching a group of traveling acrobatic group perform. Naruto was looking at them with wonder*

Naruto: Wow, they're so cool!

Hiruzen: I guess they're pretty cool.

*Hiruzen said with a hum, while Naruto had his eyes glued to the performance, looking at the trapeze artist jump without a net. Hiruzen, on the other hand, while he was enjoying it, just not as much as Naruto since he had done much more dangerous acrobatic feats. Naruto finally stopped looking at the performers and looked at his grandfather*

Naruto: Can you and the monkeys do that?

Hiruzen: the monkeys absolutely,  their one of the most acrobatic summons in konoha. Me, on the other hand? I fan feel my back hurting just looking at them. I'm a bit past my prime, my boy

*Hiruzen said with a chuckle. It was half a lie since technically, he could still do it. But his back will murder him after he does it. Naruto nodded and got up, Hiruzen looked at the young boy with a raised eyebrow*

Hiruzen: What's wrong? Need to go to the bathroom?

Naruto: Nope. I see my friend over there being silly and hiding. I'm gonna invite her over. It's more fun if we all watch it together

*Naruto said with a bright smile, as he walked up to a tree that Hiruzen snorted,  since even from the picnic blanket, hiruzen clearly heard the tree go "Eep." He watched as Naruto grabbed the little hyuga girl and dragged the shy girl to their spot, with her caretaker Mae walking behind the two. Hiruzen smiled kindly at the shy little girl*

Hiruzen: Hello, little one. Would you like a slice of pie?

Hinata: Y... Yes, please. Thank you

*hinata said softly, feeling her face flushed as Naruto was sitting right next to her. But she's not gonna pass out. She has trained for this. She took a big calming breath and accepted the paper plate with the apple pie. Or tried to, she was so nervous that she couldn't stop shaking. Naruto, seeing this, decided to help. He grabbed the plate and fork and gave hinata a big smile*

Naruto: Your arms must be tired since their shaking so much. That's how my momma gets when she exercises them too much. Here, I'll feed it to you. Say aahh

Hinata: W... Wait a moment

*hinata stammered, her blush getting worse when Naruto had a piece of pie close to her mouth. Hinata blushed so hard that steam came out of her ears, and she passed out on Mae's lap. Naruto looked at hinata confused.*

Naruto: She does this a lot.

Mae: Yes, she does. She'll be fine after a bit. Let's just enjoy the show till then

*Mae said, completely desensitized to her Mistress passing out. For her It was just another day that ended in "Y." Hiruzen shrugged and continued to watch the show. He tried to take Hinata's slice of pie, but he was defeated by a tiny hand slapping his away*

Naruto: That's not yours. She'll eat it when she wakes up

Hiruzen: Heh. Sorry, sorry, but I am the hokage Naruto.
