It was the news that struck the entire village silent, Naruto Uzumaki... Naruto 'the-demon-brat' Uzumaki, the Dope, the Dead Last, the idiot... had proposed to the Hokage! A woman more than three times his age and of higher status within the village. Not only that but she accepted!

Many females of the village cooed as the story got out, how the noble and valiant Uzumaki fought tooth and nail to win then used his request to ask her to marry him. He could've asked for nearly anything else but chose to give it up and romantically ask for her hand in marriage.

The older civilians whom were married lost themselves in the memories of how they proposed, the ones who were engaged found themselves comparing the methods that they used to Naruto's, and those thinking of proposing were thinking of how they could possibly measure up to something like that.

Not only that but the village fan girls were all sighing wistfully, wishing that something like that would happen to them while the subject of their unrequited love felt a chill run down their back.

And apparently, when the village elders (Minus Hiruzen) tried to say that she'd been tricked into it, Tsunade countered with the fact that they'd been going out for awhile now, even going so far as to kiss him in public. And not a small peck on the cheek or lips, but a kiss that had mothers covering their children's eyes.

With Naruto's increased standing with the village, many accepted their relationship, some outright supporting it and sending their congratulations or even gifts. The Shinobi part of the village were just as if not more supportive. They knew that their lives were uncertain and that they could die anytime during missions, those that did find love deserved it no matter who it was with. A view shared by many ninja worldwide, whether it be gay, straight, or even bisexual.

Like the civilians, even some of the ninja sent a gift or two... speaking of which.

In the living room of her home, Tsunade and Naruto looked at the gift they'd just gotten. Both were wearing bathrobes and nothing else... well Tsunade now had her engagement ring on but that was it.

But the two were sitting on the couch with a six inch by six inch wooden box with an egg sitting on a small cushion inside that was just a bit bigger than his hand.

"A Onsen Tamago?" Tsunade read, holding the letter that came with it with a huff, "Leave it to Gai to send such a strange gift... I mean really, what's a Hot springs Egg anyway?"

Picking it off carefully, Naruto checked it over, "Don't know... but it's warm."

Without warning, the shell shattered in his hands, making him blink when he suddenly found a small turtle in his hands and blinking at him with a pair of adorable beady black eyes. It had a light green shell and yellow skin, it's four flippers rubbing against his palm while it's tiny yellow tail seemed to wag.

"Myuh!" it squeaked cutely, it's mouth curling into a smile while it's cheeks blushed lightly.

Both blonds stared at it with wide eyes.

"Holy..." Tsunade started with her mouth agape at the adorable little turtle in her soon to be husbands hand.

"... shit," the teen finished.

The turtle suddenly flew from his hand, gliding up to his head and landing in his hair, patting him with it's flippers while chirping 'Myuh' over and over again.

As it turns out, Gai had given them a Hot Springs Turtle, an extremely rare and unique breed of sea turtle that inhabit the areas around volcanic regions, swimming amongst the local hot springs. They are uniquely intelligent, capable of understanding and responding to human speech and action as well as performing actions such as reading and writing... or that's what they read.

And apparently the understanding humans part was true, as it had perched itself in Naruto's hair and nodded when Tsunade read it out loud.

They agreed to keep the turtle, especially with it's adorable 'please keep me' eyes, and agreed to name her Tama-chan. Another reason they kept her was because of the fact that she didn't want to leave Naruto's hair, as like many egg-born animals, it formed a special bond in it's heart with the first being it saw, dubbing Naruto as it's daddy.

While instinct told most animals that the first thing it saw upon birth was it's mother, hot spring turtles were extremely smart and instead of instantly dubbing the first being it saw as 'Momma' she would be able to understand that 'Dad' fit him better.

"I'm so glad that we took the day off," Tsunade spoke as they laid together on the couch late in the afternoon after looking up what they could about Tama-chan, who finally flew off to look around her new home, especially the private indoor hot springs that her kind loved.

"Me too... but I got to ask, what happened to Shizune?" he wondered aloud, as the young woman had been living with Tsunade in the mansion.

"Oh nothing much,"

-X-

Sitting at the Hokage's desk, Shizune glared at the pile of papers, "How the hell does she deal with this bullshit!" she hissed, cursing the fact that she agreed to cover for the kage.

"Congratulations on your engagement Naruto-kun," Kabuto spoke as he saw his commander enter his lab before turning back to his work before freezing and spinning back around in his chair, "Is... is that a turtle on your head?"

Standing in the doorway with his arms crossed, Naruto indeed had the little green and yellow turtle sitting in his hair, which 'myuh'ed and gave the bespectacled teen a small wave with her flipper.

"Yeah, Gai gave her to us before she hatched... not exactly what I expected but she's way better than a blender... or anything else I've ever gotten for that matter." he muttered, making Tama-chan coo and rub her head against his with tiny hearts floating over her.

Kabuto sweat dropped, the blond looking serious while the little turtle hugged his scalp.

"Anyway, I want an update on the projects."

"Well... I've managed to research the basic functions of the chakra armor and even drew up some schematics on how to put the main component together but not how to instal it into some armor yet. But I'm working on... that..." the teen trailed off as Tama-chan moved from Naruto's hair and flew out to go explore.

"Did... did that turtle just-?"

Naruto nodded, "Fly? Yes she did, but what were you saying about a project?"

"Oh... well ah, I'm working on that artificial bloodline right now, I've hit a few snags but nothing I couldn't handle."

Naruto nodded, "Focus all your time on that, I want it finished as soon as possible."

"As you wish,"

The blond then turned to go and find Tama, only to discover her eating a pack of crackers from the kitchen in the barracks. "Come along Tama-chan, were going back home."

"Myuh?" She replied in her own language, gesturing to the crackers with a flipper.

"Sure, you can bring them,"

"MYUH!"

Turning, Naruto headed for the exit with Tama-chan following behind, the long pack of soup crackers on the back of her shell as she excitedly flew after him.

(A day Later)

"We really should get around to planning our wedding," Naruto exclaimed while laying on the couch with his head in his wife-to-be's lap, his view of her face blocked by the underside of her massive breasts. Not that it bothered him, she was wearing another set of robes, which parted a little more than it should due to her chest and gave him a nice little show during their extended vacation.

Watching TV, Tsunade ran her fingers through her lovers hair with a hum, "I've never really wanted a big wedding... less fuss that way."

Naruto chuckled lightly. One would think that a woman with the money and power that she had would want a some grand over the top ceremony to mark the day of her wedding. But Tsunade Senju didn't need something like that to make the wedding special, to her being married to the one she loved was more than enough.

"Have I ever told you how special you are?" he mused while she played with a spike of his blond hair.

In shorts and a tank top, Naruto rolled around and crawled up her body slowly, rubbing his hands all the way up from her thighs to her chest as he nipped at her neck.

She grinned and rolled her neck, letting him lavish her with his attention, "Yes... oh, and I can't get, that tickles, enough."

Adjusting their positions, Tsunade laid back with her upper back and shoulders on the arm rest while he straddled her, never stopping his ministrations as he loosened her robes and played with her breasts.

"Myuh?"

Both froze.

Slowly looking up, Tsunade saw Tama-chan flying a few inches from her face and blinked while Naruto raised himself up, revealing her bare chest to Tama.

The light blush on the turtle's yellow cheeks darkened as hearts appeared over her head and like a shot, Tama-chan zoomed down between Tsunade's breasts and rubbed her flippers against them while burying her head in the canyon between.

Both blonds blinked, shocked over what just happened... or was still happening. Tsunade didn't know what to do as the hatchling, whom wasn't even a week old, molested her while her husband to be watched.

Finally, Naruto grabbed Tama-chan by her shell and pulled her off before bringing her up to his face, "Tama-chan... those belong to me," he deadpanned, "Now why don't you go and play in the hot spring and let us have some alone time?"

-X-

Too soon for the blondes, their vacation was over and it was back to work for them. Tsunade found herself glommed by Shizune, who had been surprisingly supportive of her engagement and had to listen to her beg for her to take back the job as the paperwork had nearly kicked her ass during the three days she'd been covering for the Kage.

Naruto and his unit found themselves back to work with their 'attacks', first infiltrating the Research and Development division and staging a mock spy operation where he had Kabuto planted as an inside man under a disguise for four whole days, stealing loads of information.

His off time was spent with Anko, who'd been shockingly accepting of the engagement, the snake user even asked when and if she'd get a threesome with him and the Hokage. It was a good thing that they knew about his relationship with the other girls (Tayuya included) or else he'd be screwed.

Whenever he wasn't spending time with the girls or working, he trained a lot, sometimes with Tama-chan around as the flying turtle spent her time between her 'daddy' and his mate with the amazing rack.

He'd even go so far as to think that she was beginning to learn from him... as strange as it sounded. But the book had said that some were known to learn how to do extremely difficult things so they might even be able to learn taijutsu... right?

To be continued...
