Chapter Ten:
Age-old Advice

��

��
�I�m sorry, what did you say?�

�Well I was just asking for some
advice from you, Jiraiya said it would be a good idea.� Did I say something wrong?�� She had been looking at me like I had a
second head ever since I started asking for help.� She looked between her empty glass and her
full bottle of sake for the thousandth time since I entered her office.

�Shizune, get in here.� Now!�� She was tense,
she was confused, and she was having one of the largest headaches of her life
if the way she held her head was any indication.

�Yes Lady Tsunade?� What seems to be the problem?�� Shizune was bright and cheerful this
morning.� She smiled at me and gave a
short wave.� �Oh hello
there Naruto.�

�Shizune, sit.� Naruto, I want you to start from the
beginning, Shizune, you�re going to tell me this is real after he
finishes.�� The dark haired girl seemed
to not understand why she was given her direction as much as I did, but
nonetheless she sat at one of the free chairs in the room.� �Ok Naruto, ask away.�

�Oh, er-
right!� Well I was with Sakura yesterday,
we went to visit Kakashi in the hospital, and-�� The Lady Hokage stopped my story with
a burning glare.� �Right, cut to the
chase.� Well anyway, before I went home
she asked me if I wanted to take her out, like on a date, tonight after her
shift at the hospital.� Well I was
talking with Jiraiya and asked if he had any advice to give for tonight.�� Before I knew it both women had fire in their
eyes and were waving fists in the air.�
�Wait!� He only gave me two pieces
of advice, so before you try and skin him alive, hear me out.� The first part I understand, and it�s pretty
obvious when I look at it.� He told me,
very bluntly I might add, that taking her out for ramen would be a bad
idea.�� This seemed to calm them down a
bit; the pair of fists stopped their violent shaking.

�And what other advice did my old teammate give you Naruto.� I agree with his first bit of advice, but
that man can only come up with so much before the perversions set in.�

�Huh?� Oh well the second thing he suggested to do,
that I never would have thought of was to ask you for advice.� I mean I don�t know anything about what
happened to her during the last few years, and she was with you that whole
time, so maybe you know something I might not.�
So Granny-Tsunade?� Do you have any advice for me on where Sakura
might like to go on a date?�� It was
quiet.� Too quiet.� I looked at each of them, first Tsunade, then
Shizune.� Neither
moved.� Neither
blinked.

�I haven�t been drinking, and I
know I just heard that Jiraiya gave good advice, not once but twice in the same day.� Something is wrong here.�� The blonde girl was staring at her empty
glass now, probably wondering how much she should have today or something.

�So uh do you have any good
suggestions for me?�� I gave a small
nervous chuckle.� These two are starting
to scare me, why aren�t they moving, and why are they staring at me like
that!�� What?� Is there something on my face or something?�

�What, oh no Naruto, nothing like
that.� It�s just that well, we both never
expected him to actually have any advice about women that isn�t, well,
perverted.�� The Hokage had a point.� Even I was wary of the advice he was going to
give me.� �But advice for you well let me
think.�� She stared at her bottle.� �Hmm, something Sakura would like?�� Why would she be eying her sake like
that?� Unless, wait no she wouldn�t.

Shizune looked over at me then back
at her master.� �Um perhaps Lady Hokage
we should pull her file.� With all the
notes you make you must have surely put something in her file about what she
likes.�� Why would Shizune�s head twitch
like that, towards Tsunade�s desk?� Wait,
she wants me to swipe the sake when the old hag�s back is turned.� Good idea.

�Really?� You mean there might be something in her file
that could help me?� That�s great!�

Tsunade decided to make a grab for
her sake before we could.� This is not
good, drunken advice is always bad.� Very very bad.� �Yes!� Now Shizune, before we go sifting through her
files I need you to go hide this with the rest of my stash.�

We stared.� Something is wrong in this world if Tsunade,
the Legendary Sucker, the Drunken Gambler of the Leaf is saying put away the
booze.� However, without a second guess,
Shizune took the bottle away.� When the
door closed behind her it was quiet.� �Okay
Naruto, I want you to listen up and listen good!� You may be like a little brother to me, but
Sakura, she�s like the daughter I never had.�
I�m glad you came to me for advice because I won�t give you bad advice.�
So you are going to be a gentleman tonight.� That means no pestering her for a kiss or a
hug.� You are going to be polite and you
are going to dress up.�� She wants me to
dress up, well I admit that it wouldn�t be the best of ideas to go out in my
mission clothes, but what would I dress up in?�
�Don�t even start asking questions, we only have about fifteen minutes
before she gets back, and I need to inform you of quite a few things.� Here take this.�� Why would she give me an envelope?� �Don�t open it now; think of it as a gift.� Use what�s in it to buy yourself
a decent pair of pants and a button up shirt.�
I don�t really care what color you choose, but keep it simple, so
nothing more complicated than one or two colors.� Now as for where you go, and what you do,
well that is a bit tricky.� I know how
little money you must have, so you�re going to have to keep it cheap, which
isn�t always best.� What you need to do
then Naruto is offset the fact that it�s cheap by making it thoughtful.� What that means is choose a place you can
afford that she will most definitely like.�
Tonight I suggest that you take a walk through the park, avoid the gate
that Sauske left by and visit the top of the Hokage Monument.� Try and be there around 9:30.� There�s supposed to be a meteor shower
tonight, and from above the Fourth�s head, well the view will be perfect.� I can�t stress how much you have to avoid
kissing her tonight.� I don�t care how
much you want to or she looks like she wants to.� Let me spell it out now before you start
asking questions.� If you kiss her
tonight, nothing will change.� She might
enjoy it, or she might hate it.� Or
worse, if you kiss you could take it as a sign that it�s okay to do so at any
time, and that will get you punched.� If
she is interested in kissing you, she�ll ask you out on another date.� And even then you�re going to let her make
the moves.� Sakura is a strong woman
Naruto.� She needs to know you�re going
into this thinking with your heart, not your dick.�

�Ah Shizune good bring that file
over here and lets take a look.�� This
old woman scares me.� The way she makes
it seem is that if I mess this up and Sakura doesn�t kill me she will.� �Hmm, let�s see now shall we?� Okay, here�s something, it says: Took Sakura
out for dinner after training today.� She
said she wasn�t hungry; however she did order a selection of dumplings.� It seems that her favorites were the ones
with syrup coating.� Note to self, next
birthday, surprise her with some.�� She
looked up from the page and grimaced.�
�Oops, looks like I forgot about that.�
Seems this is from shortly after you left the village,
so there is a good chance she�ll still like them.�

�Oh Naruto, I just remembered
something.� Actually it goes back to that
night after dinner.� I asked Sakura why
she wasn�t eating anything with us Lady Tsunade, and she said it was all that
wasabi we were putting on the food.� She
doesn�t like spicy food.�� Shizune had a
smile that matched Tsunade�s.

�So there you have it brat, avoid
spicy food and dumplings are a great idea.�
Now, Shizune, I need you to help Naruto out with something.� He is going clothes shopping; you are going
to make sure his selections are something that people would normally wear in a
casual yet classy environment.�

�You mean pants and a button up
shirt?� Maybe a tie?�

�Oh I never thought of that, and
shoes he�ll need new shoes and socks.�

�And possibly a
haircut too!�

Gah this is getting ridiculous, all
these girls want to do now is play dress up.�
And I am no guinea pig.� �Um Ladies?�
Hello?�� They�re still at it.� I need to stop them now.� �Shizune, Lady Tsunade, I�m sorry but I promised
I�d meet Master Jiraiya for lunch, I�ll have to go now.�� Golden silence filled the office.� It filled the halls I walked along and it
filled the staircases that I descended.�
By the time I reached the front door to the building I hadn�t heard a
sound come out of that office.� They
finally stopped arguing over what to dress me up in.� As I set off for Ichiraku's I couldn�t help
but smile.� I�m getting a free
lunch.� I�m getting free clothes.� And if all goes well tonight, a girl that
might love me.� Life is good.

�Naruto!� What did you just call me?�� Well if it isn�t good, at least it�s
interesting.

Author notes:� Okay�
so I sortta lied.� I said I wouldn�t
update this story for a while because I would be working on a Sakura fic.� Well I hit a snag on that.� I have a name for it, and ideas from ever
part where she interacts with Naruto, but not really how to start it.� Thusly I will be attempting to start it
ASAP.� However whenever I get writers
block on it, or as in this case good ideas for this fic, I will be working on
this one.� Point of note, while I have had
suggestions for a name for Sakura�s fic, I have chosen to use one of my
own.� I won�t give out the title yet,
because I�ve done that before and had someone steal it on me.� So until I have chapter 1, it will be known
as Sakura�s fic.
