15 Onsen (Short relationship building)

Monday Morning

Uchiha compound

After my talk with sarutobi I came back home and had a regular weekend with sasuke and the others, monday came quickly, I set up the Onsen cleaning the water washing towels etc.

Hinata showed up early with a bag of toiletries and we all had breakfast together where sasuke was trying to get hinata's attention "So hinata have you ever been in an onsen before?" Hinata focusing on her food looks up in surprise "Hm? Oh uh no, I've always been too shy to go to the public onsen and my clan doesn't have a private one."

Standing up I get everyone's plate and put them in the sink "We'll i'm glad to be part of your first onsen experience, it's quite relaxing I think it will really help with your anxiety." I send her a gentle smile to help her relax.

Smiling back her shoulders loosen "Thanks naruto i've been tense lately so I really need this." Giving her a look of concern I ask "What's wrong, why have you been stressed?"

She looks conflicted for a minute looking between sasuke and me. "Well my family elders have been trying to force my father into making me leave our group. They don't like me associating with you and sasuke. They think your bad influences on me. Luckily father told them that as long as I can keep getting strong from our training group."

Hm surprising yet not. "Well that's easy enough to do, anyway let's head to onsen i've already set it up." getting out toiletries together we all head to the onsen.

Once there I show the hinata to the girls changing room where she looks a little disappointed sorry girl twelve is not old enough no matter what ninja law says.

Heading to the boys changing room me and sasuke undress and and put on our towels heading into the onsen we wash up and hope into the hot springs

The water is divine, not quite boiling but enough to melt your muscles. And after four years of constant training this is just what I needed eventually I hear sasuke suck in a breath and opening my eyes I see why, hinata has just walked in and well just like in the show even this young she is more stacked than most women in my other universe.

I imagine for a young boy going through puberty for the first time it's like looking at an angel. Poor guy "Hey hinata hop on in the water's perfect."

She smiles at me and walks on in releasing a sigh/moan of relief "Oh god this is what heaven must be like."

"I know right, it's the perfect relife after a stressful week. Like being turned into a puddle of goop." Looking over at Sasuke as Hinata gets closer I see him lowering himself into the water "Are you alright sasuke?"

With a shriek sasuke pops up "FINE! I'm fine, just a little dizzy." Smirking at him I ask "You sure you don't look dizzy, you do look flushed though. Like your blushing." He glares at me "I said i'm fine." he grinds out between his teeth.

Turning to look at Hinata I ask "How about you? I hope this isn't too embarrassing for you but this is the only bath." She blushes a bit looking at my chest "No this is fine i'm just glad for the chance to relax after all our training and the stuff happening in my clan."

Time passes with the three of us just talking and those two getting used to being half-naked near each other and me. Eventually we get out and have a picnic for lunch on top of the hokage monument which if I haven't mentioned has a beautiful view. Once finished Hinata heads home with Sasuke and me heading to our home.
