She agrees

“Damn you, old bat!”, Karin muttered under her breath, making Naruto chuckle uneasily as a vein throbbed on the hokage’s forehead. “If it’s between living in a cell or with this bloke, I choose him!“, she sighed in resignation. “It’s not like Sasuke won't be here soon for me anyway...”, she said with a grin.

“If he hasn’t come here since you got caught two weeks ago, why would he come now?”, Naruto wondered out loud to himself.

Karin glared at Naruto for a moment. “Because he has to!”, she shouted, clearly upset. “Because I was helping him find that damn brother of his! He owes me!”, she yelled, sounding more like she was trying to convince herself than to tell Naruto off.

Naruto thought to himself how much she sounded like Sakura not too long ago before seeing how sad her eyes were. She looked like she was holding a lot back and Naruto decided to speak up “You know Sasuke isn’t the best guy around, and personally, I think you deserve better than him anyway.”, Naruto commented, making Karin look up at him with an angry look before she saw how serious he was.

“Personally, I don’t se why women like him so much, all he cares about is ****!”, Naruto reasoned before smiling at Karin. “Don’t worry, I’m not as bad as you think I might be, and I’m sure the others will like you too once you meet them. Hell, Tayuya and Kin were originally from Otogakure, you might find you guys have a lot in common!”, Naruto said shrugging with a smile before Tsunade took him out of the room.

“Naruto, why did you say all of that?”, Tsunade asked. Naruto only smiled. “I thought she might like to hear she’s not the only sound ninja in the village, besides she might be easier in the long run if I try and make her feel special like the others.”, Naruto said. Now it was Tsunades turn to grin. “Ok, Casanova, get out of here while I finish up with Karin.”. Tsunade said.

“Well what am I supposed to do now?”, Naruto wondered... he could get ready for the dinner soon, but then again, there was still some time left.

Overhearing him, Tsunade put on a thoughtful look. “Oh I don’t know, I heard a certain female Kumogakure ambassador who has a fondness for cats like you do for foxes could be visiting, otherwise why don’t you figure it out yourself? You're good at being preoccupied.”, Tsunade said before having an ANBU lead him from the building.

“Damn you, old lady!”, Naruto grumbled before sighing and walking down the street No doubt Yugito knew about his wedding plans and if what Tsunade had just said wasn’t the most obvious front to say ‘find her and talk!’, he didn’t know what was!
