Chapter 60: Talking with Tatsuki

*Author Note*

Sorry, there will be no chapter tomorrow.

*Author Note*

A groan escaped Tatsuki's mouth as she slowly opened her eyes. Although her body felt sluggish, she was rather comfortable right now as her head rested on something warm while something was occasionally combing through her hair, making her even more comfortable.

However, after she had fully opened her eyes and noticed a pair of clear blue eyes looking at her with warmth, she realized that her head was currently resting on Naruto's lap while he combed his hand through her hair, immediately causing her face to flush crimson.

"Yo, how are you feeling, Tatsuki?"

"N-N-Naruto! W-What are you doing!?"

As soon as she realized the position she was in, she tried to get up, but Naruto softly held her in place by resting his hand on her forehead, making her even more flustered.

"Geez, calm down, Tatsuki. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and relax."

Initially, Tatsuki wanted to struggle harder, but after hearing Naruto's words, she decided to follow his advice.

'R-Right, what am I even getting so flustered for? We have already k-kissed, so why would I get flustered over resting my head on his lap?'

Despite those thoughts, Tatsuki couldn't help but squirm a little every time Naruto's hand passed through her hair, and only after around a minute did she manage to calm down a little and just enjoy the sensation.

Although her cheeks were still colored a little pink, she still managed to calm down a lot and reopened her eyes.

"Where are we? I fell asleep while you were carrying me.'

"Mhh? Oh, we are at my house. I thought you would rather not have your parents see me carrying you home, so I went here instead."

"Eh? Y-Your home? S-Since Yuna and Hinata aren't here, d-doesn't that mean it's just us two in here?"

"Mhh? Yeah, we are currently the only people in this house."

As soon as those words left Naruto's mouth, Tatsuki's crimson blush returned as all kinds of thoughts entered her mind.

'N-No way! It's just us two in here. Isn't this bad!? D-Does Naruto want to do it!? No way, I-I'm not ready yet... Well, I kind of feel that I'll never truly be ready and that Naruto with take the initiative, so~... NO! What are you thinking about, Tatsuki!?'

Seeing Tatsuki's facial color change as it became redder and redder, Naruto had to suppress a chuckle as he leaned down with a concerned expression on her face, bringing his face significantly closer to Tatsuki.

"What's wrong, Tatsuki? Do you have a fever due to exhausting yourself too much?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his hand landed on Tatsuki's forehead to see whether it was hot or not. Frankly, Naruto wanted to put his forehead on hers to make her even more flustered, but considering that she was currently resting her head on his lap, that was rather impossible.

"N-No, I'm fine, Naruto." The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

"Hee~ Is that so~"

Hearing the teasing undertone in Naruto's voice, Tatsuki immediately threw a vicious glare at him as her cheeks remained crimson.

"Seems like you want to say something else, Naruto."

Feeling Tatsuki's vicious glare on him, Naruto couldn't help but chuckle in amusement as he held eye contact with her.

"Hehe, nothing much. It's just a little surprising how my cute little Tatsuki has perverted thoughts like that~"

As soon as Naruto finished speaking, Tatsuki somehow managed to blush even harder as she threw a vicious glare at Naruto while simultaneously trying her hardest to prevent steam from coming out of her ears.

"W-who are you calling a pervert! I-I'm not a pervert. You are the pervert!"

Seeing Tatsuki getting more and more flustered, Naruto couldn't help himself but chuckle in amusement as he lightly grabbed Tatsuki's chin, forcing her to look at his face, resulting in her seeing Naruto's predatory smile.

"That's right. I'm definitely a pervert, and frankly, I'm rather close to pouncing on you~"

Seeing Naruto's expression and hearing his words, Tatsuki couldn't help but freeze up as she had no idea how to react to what Naruto had just said.

On the one hand, she was undoubtedly happy that Naruto was attracted to her, but on the other hand, she felt like things were moving too quickly.

As Tatsuki was totally frozen due to Naruto's words, she noticed one of Naruto's hands approaching one of her more intimate places, resulting in her closing her eyes with a mix of anticipation and fear.

However, instead of Naruto gently touching her, she felt him flicking her forehead, resulting in Tatsuki exclaiming in surprise.

"H-Huh? Wha..."

Tatsuki couldn't help but smile wryly when Naruto asked whether she believed his story to be true or not. After all, everything she had just heard was beyond ridiculous, with one abnormal plot twist and incident after another.

However, despite all of her doubts, she could feel like she should believe what Naruto had just told her. No matter how she looked at it, she didn't think there was any advantage for Naruto to tell her such an elaborate lie.

"Let's pretend like I believe everything you just told me: Why why would you even tell me about it?"

"Because there is a very high chance I'll reconnect to my already existing harem at some point in time, and I don't want you to have any regrets about dating me. I want you to know that if you choose to stay with me, the chance of other women becoming part of my life is pretty much 100%."

Tatsuki kept quiet after Naruto finished speaking. There was a lot to digest, and she honestly wasn't entirely sure how she was supposed to handle the current situation.

Obviously, she liked Naruto and had a lot of fun hanging out with him, but this was something she had no clue how to handle.

However, as she pondered her reaction for a while, she remembered Rangiku's words, which basically painted a picture of an enjoyable life with multiple partners.

Obviously, Tatsuki wouldn't accept everything so easily, especially since Rangiku's situation was pretty different from her own, but remembering the conversation with her, at least broke a few barriers Tatsuki had about this whole situation.

So, after around ten minutes of utter silence in which Naruto patiently waited for Tatsuki to sort out her thoughts, she finally resumed speaking.

"I assume you aren't willing to let go of all those women and stay with me alone?"

Naruto only briefly shook his head before he answered Tatsuki's question.

"I'm sorry, but that won't happen. I love all of them and even have children and grandchildren with quite a few of them. No matter what, I won't abandon them."

"Can you really love that many women, Naruto?"

"I don't know about others, but I can. I'm stubborn, Tatsuki. Very stubborn. I'm probably one of the most stubborn people in the world. If I fall in love with someone, I'll never let go."

Feeling Naruto's blue eyes shining with determination while seemingly piercing through her very existence, Tatsuki couldn't help but shiver as she continued asking questions.

"What if I reject you because of your past? What will you do?"

"Hmm? Isn't that obvious? I'll continue pursuing you, no matter the circumstances."

Yet again, Tatsuki couldn't help but shiver due to Naruto's intense gaze as she continued evaluating what she had just heard.

'Obviously, I don't want to share my man...'

Internally calling Naruto "her man" already caused her to blush, but she continued thinking nonetheless.

'... However, things are a little different. I can not help but believe Naruto's story about his past life simply to how much it would explain and the ridiculousness of it all. In that case, if everything he said was true, it's not a case of me dating him and allowing him to make a harem; It's me joining an already existing harem.

This decision might be easier to make if I knew any people Naruto is acquainted with, but I do know not a single person.

Shit why am I even thinking about this? My boyfriend has a harem, and even if it is in another world, shouldn't I immediately dumb him!?

... I don't want to... No matter how I look at it, I have a lot of fun spending time with Naruto, so I don't want to lose him. But that harem situation... I really d...'

As Tatsuki was sinking deeper and deeper into her own thoughts, a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder, startling her and pulling her out of her thoughts.

She looked around in confusion, and moments later, she noticed Naruto looking at her with a gentle gaze, causing her heartbeat to speed up.

"Calm down, Tatsuki. I'm not asking you to make a decision right now. Take your time. Think about the whole situation and calmly make your decision. There is no time limit. Think about what you want, your desires, and your goals for the future.

I'll wait for your answer, and if you have any more questions, then ask them, and I'll answer them as truthfully as possible. Although there are some things that I can't tell you for your own safety, as long as it's about our relationship, I should be able to answer you 100 percent truthfully."

Although Tatsuki wasn't happy that Naruto was still withholding some information from her, considering the last part of his little speech, she couldn't help but be satisfied. Frankly, she was happy that Naruto wasn't pushing this matter because if he did, there was a high chance that she would simply accept due to not wanting to lose Naruto.

Like this, she had plenty of time to think about everything she had just heard and experienced and could come to a proper conclusion about how her relationship with Naruto would or wouldn't continue.

"Thank you, Naruto, for telling me all of that. I don't know how to handle what I have heard just now yet, but I'm still happy you told me about it instead of tossing me in the cold water.

Sorry, I'll be going home for now. I have a lot of stuff to think about."

Naruto simply nodded his head due to having already predicted that kind of reaction. Obviously, a woman from a modern era wouldn't just shrug her shoulders and accept being part of a harem, so Tatsuki's reaction was pretty much how he expected it to be.

"That's fine, Tatsuki. Take your time and think about everything you have just heard. Additionally, never forget that I love you~"

Yet again, Tatsuki's face flushed crimson as she heard Naruto proclaiming his love for her with a cheeky grin, seriously igniting the desire to punch him in the face while desiring to copy what Naruto had just done as well.

"Hmph, idiot."

Hearing Tatsuki's tsundere remark, Naruto laughed out loud as she answered her.

"Hahaha, your idiot and I still love you~"
