Love in the Hidden Leaves. Narusasu

Tsunades Troubles

I do not own Naruto or the characters
Naruto x Sasuke
This is not a self insert, we are trying something new.
Let us know what you think.

The sun shines through the windows of the Hokage tower as Lady Tsunade sips her tea. Reveling in the bitter taste of the unsweetened drink, she takes the time to breathe and look over the Leaf Village she calls home. The morning sun barely shines over the roofs of the houses and businesses of the village. It's so peaceful and quiet at this time of day. Though Lady Tsunade doesn't like to wake early, she makes it a point to do so everyday; not to get a head start on her work, but to relax before the day truly begins. That was her plan before she heard a rather obnoxious boy down the hall.

"BASTARD!" Lady Tsunade jumps at the sudden noise and her tea sloshes onto her clothes. Her brows scrunch together as a deep glare forms onto her face when the door to her office is slammed open.

Naruto stumbles in, followed by Gaara and Sasuke, who purposely knocks into Naruto's shoulder causing him to trip some more. She counts the three ninjas and sighs deeply, already anticipating the headache that is about to come from this morning's report from the three stooges.

"Where are the rest?" she says curt and straight forward. 'These damn fools. Couldn't this have waited another 5 minutes?' she thinks to herself.

"Shikamaru and Choji were stopped by Ino on our way over. We figured we could give you the report without them, Grandma Tsunade." Naruto chuckles and Gaara glances at his goofy smile.

"Temari and Kankuro are also with Shikamaru and Choji." Gaara tuned in, his voice stoic and his eyes tired.

Sasuke stood away from the two, arms crossed around his chest as he looked away in a nonchalant manner. Tsunade took a look at the three and could tell something was off.

'When wasn't there anything off with these two.' Tsunade thinks as she rolls her eyes at herself.

Naruto wasn't shouting his head off about how successful the mission to the sand village was.
Sasuke wasn't giving his detailed reports she'd come to love from him. Given that she actually gets the details she needs rather than what Naruto gives her. Tsunade also could see the deep seeded glare Sasuke was giving Naruto, much different then his regular glare because this one packed a punch.

'Geez...If this boy could shoot kunai with his eyes, Naruto would surely be dead.' She gives a deep sigh, already annoyed and begins to speak to the ninjas. "So since this was a simple escort mission both villages were hired for, how did it go?"

Sasuke was the first to speak up, interrupting Naruto which caused the blonde to glare at him.
"Everything would've been fine if the idiot didn't get distracted so easily." Sasuke states. Naruto starts to get angry. His nostrils flare and he breathes deeply. "Oh, wait, that can be said about any mission Naruto is a part of." Sasuke spits.

"Bastard! That's not true!" Naryto stomps like a child, his face turning red from both embarrassment and rage. Tsunade could tell the words cut deep. Anything Sasuke did to Naruto cut the blonde down so quickly.

Tsunade glances at Gaara noticing how tense he was. 'They must have been like this the entire trip.' she gathers from the uncomfortable ora Gaara is giving off. "What happened?" She looks at the red head for some semblance of an idea, hoping he would answer her instead of the hot headed brats.

"The mission was successful, nothing in particular went wrong." Gaara says in a cool tone. "We escorted the king and had little to no conflict."

Tsunade nods and then looks over at the pouting Naruto and sulking Sasuke. They look childish with their forced frowning, huffing and puffing like a couple of school girls fighting over a boy.

"So what's got these two all pissy?" She points her thumb at them as she sits at the edge of her desk. Gaara glances at Naruto and Sasuke causing him to shrug.
