Wondering if it was because of his feelings for the girl he said, "Naruto… I can understand you not wanting to use your jutsu on her because of your feelings for her. But she is going to be the next head of the medical department, a powerful position…"
"You misunderstand Ino," Naruto said explaining his position, "Yes it's because of how I feel about her, but we're just going to have to hope that she'll go along with it when the time comes."
"You don't hate her now do you?" Ino asked worried since she was sure Sakura would take such news hard. While Naruto was gone she had begun to suspect that her friend had feelings for the blonde, based on how she talked about him. After a while Sakura would begin to wonder more and more about when Naruto was coming back. In truth Ino had been rather surprised that Sakura had become so focused on Sasuke upon her other teammates return. But before she had been able to give the matter any thought, her own situation with her fellow blond had changed.
Ino was torn between telling Naruto some of the kind things Sakura said about him while he was gone or not. However, in the end she decided not to since they had been told to her in trust that it was just between them. Instead she settled for saying, "Naruto, she's just confused about her…"
"Look Ino its fine," Naruto said ending with a sigh. He sat in silence for a while and she was just about to pry when he said, "My feelings for her haven't really changed. However it is because of them that I will not use this jutsu on her."
"What do you mean?"
"What do you know about the day Sasuke defected?"
"Not much," Ino admitted, "Tsunade was rather quiet about what happened between you and Sasuke."
"Not Sasuke and me," Naruto jumped in, "Between Sakura and I."
Ino thought for a moment before remembering something Shikamaru told her. Positive that was what he was talking about she said, "You're talking about how she begged you to return Sasuke back to the village."
Naruto nodded looking sadly at a wall as if replaying the memory, "Yeah… she laid it all on the line as she asked me to return Sasuke. I could do nothing but agree to bring him back. True, I would have any way, but it took on a different meaning then. In a sense I would be bringing Sakura's happiness back." Naruto paused and looked at her, "That's why I can't use the jutsu on her. Let's just say that if things had been different and I had cared for you like I did for her that she would be sitting naked in my lap now instead of you."
Ino's eyes went wide at what Naruto was admitting. Basically he had said he still cared deeply for Sakura but was standing aside so she could pursue Sasuke. But the rest of what he said sunk in and she felt hurt, jealous, betrayed, and angry, but almost as soon as the emotions began warring around in her she felt them dampen.
However it still reached her face causing Naruto to say, "That bothers you, doesn't it?"
"That you chose me to clear away a rival for Sakura and in a sense took away my choice to choose. Hell yes it bothers me," Ino snapped. But then added more calmly, "I even think this stupid jutsu is muting just how angry I am." She sagged a little into him, as the anger faded and said, "But truthfully, I'm also jealous and a little relieved."
"Relieved?" Naruto asked surprised.
"Yeah, you didn't have to tell me that. You could simply have said because I said so." Ino turned her head towards him placing a light kiss on the closest thing she could reach which was his cheek. She blushed slightly at the small sign of affection which surprised her since she was sitting naked in his lap but guessing at her reason said, "Also, I'm really glad that you did choose me. I chased Sasuke for years, and probably would still be chasing him if not for what you did to me. But I don't mind because you probably have shown more affection for me, and not just in a sexual way, but in all the ways that matter in a relationship. Even one as crazy as ours seems like it's going to be."
"Thanks Ino."
"No thank you Naruto," Ino replied focusing on his face. She then looked into his eyes adding, "But as one Sasuke obsessed girl talking about another, please consider Sakura."
"I'll let her make the choice," Naruto said after thinking for a moment.
Ino kissed his cheek again as thanks for considering her opinion before saying, "Now onto 'Wants.'"
Naruto thought for a moment, but then realized that he had a beautiful naked woman sitting in his lap and decided to have some fun. He placed his hand on her thigh and began rubbing it up and down. He then said, "Well first I think a good candidate would be, Ayame."
"The ramen stand waitress," Ino said surprised, and trying not to be distracted by the hand moving up and down her leg in greater sweeps, thereby moving closer to her responding womanhood, "Why her?"
"Because, if I'm going to be honest with myself, she was one of my first sexual fantasies, when you grow up lonely like I did and there's only one woman that treats you like you matter you tend to believe it's because she wants you."
Ino nodded sadly as she wrote the name down but then shivered and sighed as Naruto's hand reached her lower lips. The hand began rubbing along the outside. Trying to keep on target she said, "Whose next?"
"Hmm," Naruto said enjoying the feel of Ino's cunt as it responded to his ministrations. Deciding to give the blonde more, he slid his middle finger into her folds and began to work it back and forth inside her. Then as if he was discussing what he wanted for dinner said, "I was thinking about Kurenai-sensei."
"No-no…" Ino said surprising Naruto who began to withdraw his finger from her. Ino quickly stopped him putting her hand on his to keep him there and once he began moving it again, said, "She's… she's … mmmm… she's involved with someone…"
"Really who," Naruto said beginning to work his finger faster.
"I…I…shouldn't say…they're…oh s-s-so mmmm…they're trying to be discrete," Ino said, but knew if he pressed she would tell. The reason she knew of Asuma's relationship with Kurenai was because the jounin kept buying flowers for her from her family's shop. She had learned the truth when he had ordered some red carnations, but had asked that they be uncut. After he bought them Ino saw the flowers again in a flower box outside Kurenai's apartment.
"Okay Ino," Naruto said not wanting to be a home wrecker. "Tell me is Ayame seeing anyone?"
"I…more…more please…" Ino said getting off track.
Naruto smiled adding a second finger, "Now my question."
"Yes…I think so…oh Kami…"
Naruto smiled as he guessed that meant Kurenai was seeing Asuma since the Yamanaka writhing in his lap obviously didn't care if he wrecked Ayame's relationship. "Take Ayame off then as well," Naruto said disappointed, but laughed as Ino tried to scratch the name off while enjoying his efforts.
When she succeeded he said, "How about that crazy proctor from the second exam?"
"A-anko Mitarashi…she's single…" Ino said trying to ignore the pleasure she was feeling as he worked his magic long enough to add her name. Having a suggestion of her own she said, "How…h-h-ow about Tenten… she asked…fuck Naruto right there…," Naruto began rubbing the spot he had just touched inside her harder causing the kunoichi to spread her legs more placing her feet on his knees and began humping the palm of his hand which was resting on her pelvis as his fingers moved inside her. Trying to pick up where she left off she said, "She…she asked…Neji out a few months ago…oh yes…he…he turned her…down though….claims relationships are bad among teammates…"
"Add her then," Naruto said smiling as the young woman tried. She got as far as writing 'Ten," rather shakily when he pressed his palm against her engorged clit.
She practically threw the pad away from her as she came soaking his hand and pants in her release as she shouted, "Oh gods!!!!!!"
As she tried to catch her breath Naruto lifted her up in his arms and carried her towards his bed. Placing her down, he stood up as she watched glassy eyed as he released his cock and freed himself of his pants and underwear.
Looking down at the girl, he asked, "Do you have anywhere you need to be?"
Ino couldn't reply, so weakly shook her head no. "Good," he said getting into the bed and climbing between her legs, "because I don't think you'll be leaving this bed today." He then spent the rest of the day delighting in the blonde goddess that was Ino.
