Hashirama Senju:
You had been staring at the invitation for nearly 5 minutes now. Youâre Invited. Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki. A marriage of alliance, the clan from Uzushiogakure were fading more and more on a daily.
âYouâre not considering going, are you?â Hana, your older sister asked.
âIâm not sure, why?â You said, closing the invitation.
âHeâs your former lover and youâre going to show up to his wedding? Thatâs a bit scandalous, donât you think?â She frowned.
âHeâs literally Hokage, and he said weâd always be friends,â you mumbled.
âAnd yet here you are, 10 months later avoiding him like the plague,â she said, making you roll your eyes, walking away.
Hashirama had been a sensitive subject for months, since the breakup. Perhaps it was because you werenât together for a few short months, but a two year long relationship. You were a baker, oftentimes giving away the left over bread at the end of the day to families in need.
When he heard, he immediately visited, he was the most upbeat shinobi youâd ever personally met. He told you about his and Madaraâs plans for Konoha, and that it had been decided heâd be Hokage and he wanted to provide the materials for you to feed everyone. You didnât think you could do it, but he had a way of persuading and motivating others.
The event turned out wonderful and everyone seemed to enjoy your baked goods. So much so that Hashirama came back the next day to praise you and gush about how happy he was it all turned out well. Seeing each other, outside of work related concerns, came naturally, he didnât want the village or clan to build any rumors, so it was never public. However, he always managed to sneak away from responsibilities, coming to your shop, youâd close and share lunch, conversation and eventually kisses.
What began to bloom, it was far from perfect, he was unreliable, unattainable to a certain degree. He had stood you up plenty of times because of work, went on missions without even saying anything and had you completely oblivious, even asked you to bake for events instead of spending time together.
It hurt, but it was impossible to stay angry with him long. He would beat himself up about it, apologizing sincerely, promising that someday, it will be different.
After one year together, he was more than sure youâd be the woman he married. You never held onto hope before like you did with him. Your life had changed in many ways. While to the public knew you both to be close associates, only his closest shinobi knew you were his. He had moved your home and shop closer to the Senju compound. A bigger place, but less privacy, he was only a mile away, he showed up whenever he wanted.
He came almost daily, even if it was only a few minutes. You anticipated and yearned for your secret quickies and passionate kisses. To be held by him for only a moment. To forget that Konoha existed and you came after her.
By a year and a half, your love was spreading thin. There was no change, only a wish that he could change. He wanted to publicly parade you, marry you with a lavish wedding, have an army of babies with you. He just couldnât, not right now. Not when peace was still a fragile concept, when there was much war and bloodshed. Just keep hope, and he will keep his word, he always told you.
Then the rumors came, Uzumaki coming to the village. The clan was increasingly hunted for decades, and at last they were turning to their distant cousins. Everyone was talking about her, Mito, the beautiful matriarch had been seen speaking to the Senju clan head and first Hokage. There were no words that could describe the way your stomach dropped.
Kissing your lips softly, you moaned, as his hips went deeper. He lifted one leg, putting it on his shoulder, kissing your calf.
âYou look beautiful,â he smiled, as you moaned louder. âGetting so wet, pretty girlâ he whispered.
Rubbing your clit, he rolled his hips, he was deep, stretching you wide. Your fingers interlocked with one of his hands. Your own eyes rolling back as words came out mixed with gibberish. The sex always felt life changing, he was like a god, bestowing a piece of attention onto you and you crumbled for it every time. Your orgasm was intense as ever, as he moaned and whimpered, filling you up, kissing you deeply.
Pulling out, he caught your feet easily and kissed them and sucked your tongues, making you laugh, which made him smile. The memory made you clench your thighs.
âThere has been talks about youâŠgetting pretty close with Mito Uzumakiâ you said quietly, catching your breath.
You watched in real time as his smile slowly dropped and his head followed.
âThe Uzumaki, they are practically being hunted, especially the women and children and they are of the same blood as Senjuâ
âAre they moving to Kono-
âThe elders, are proposing an allianceâ he said, beating around the bush, making you sit up.
âMarriage,â you corrected him, sharply.
âYes,â he said, with a reaction that seemed like it hurt to even say that.
âYouâre marrying her and youâre here fucking me, telling me weâll be together?â You scoff in disbelief.
âDonât say it like that. There is always hope. Iâll tell Mito, sheâll understand what we have. We can hire you as a staff member, and-â
âDo you hear yourself, Hashirama?â Your voice cracked.
âY/n, pleaseâŠtry to understandâŠpeaceâŠit is the most important mission in our lives, for the future generations, so our children and grandchildren arenât seeing death at the same numbers that weâve had to see. So they can dream and chase after those dreams and hope they come trueâ
âAnd what about me?â You asked, his eyes watered with guilt.
âI love you, donât you know that?â He said, but you shook your head.
âNot enough to put me firstâ
âThe village-â he started, but he couldnât finish, not when he knew you were so close to the truth.
âIâm sorry, Y/nâŠIâm trying, I just-thereâs too much on the line, to prioritize my wants. Iâd choose the village over madara, if it came down to itâ he stressed. Pulling the sheet over your breast. Staring at him in disbelief, your mouth hung open.
âThen what is the point of this? Two years, Hashirama,â you were getting choked up.
âI want you, Y/n. Donât ever doubt it, I just need you to have hopeâ his voice cracked, his forehead resting against yours. Before he kissed you, deeply. The two of you laid down, and he held you the rest of the night, as if youâd slip away.
Four months was exactly how long you lasted before you were forced to let him go. He was releasing you, as he put it. You deserved more and he couldnât continue to let the woman he loved to wait for him. Hope. It always had been a false dream that was told to civilians to make them hold on, all along. Important men didnât have the privilege to truly indulge in promises for long, and that included Hashirama Senju.
âLord First, you have a guest,â his retainer spoke.
âLet them in,â he smiled brightly.
He began to stand, but he froze as you walked in. Clearing his throat, he stood up straighter, fixing his robe.
âY/n, itâs wonderful to see you. You lookâŠyou look beautiful as alwaysâ he said sincerely.
âHashirama,â you said, pulling the invitation out, sitting it on the desk.
âI canât,â you continued. He visibly gulped, clenching his jaw.
âAre you sure? The reception wonât be nearly as lively without-
âDonât. Please. This isnât easy for me,â you furrowed your eyebrows.
âEven now, I am selfish. I know you deserve more, but I just want you close, to protect you,â he said quietly.
âI know, that is what you do best,â you smiled, wiping the tears before they could fall.
âI just wanted to make sure everyone was safe, that I could give peace and-
âHope, I knowâ his breath caught and for a moment he looked like he would cry himself.
âWell. You came all this way just to refuse my invite, surely that isnât all, what can I do for you?â he change the subject, clearing his throat.
âI wanted to request and escort, I am leaving Konohaâ
âWhat? Why?â
âIâm seeing the world, thereâs so much for me to see, so many people to meetâ his eyes softened, and he crossed his arms.
âYouâll really do that and have me stressed all the way out here,â he said, making her laugh.
âIsnât that in the job description of hokage, âmake sure to stress about your pretty ex girlfriends?ââ You teased, making him laugh.
âOf course,â he agreed, watching you begin to turn to leave.
âY/nâŠtake care, and youâre always welcome to come backâ he said, his heart was pounding, watching the love of his life leaving, and there was nothing he could do.
Unable to say goodbye, feeling the pain and tears sitting in your throat, you blew a kiss and turned away. You kept walking, choosing to not look back, leaving behind the life you almost had. Madara Uchiha:
âYou missed date nightâŠagain,â you clenched your jaw, crossing your arms. Madara stared at you plainly, and brushed past you, letting himself into your small home.
âIâve been sitting through hours of meetings, donât start,â he said, removing his armor. Huffing, you followed behind him.
Always so blunt, Madara never pretended. It was one of the qualities that made you fall for him. He had been returning from a long mission when he and you crossed paths. You were only half Uchiha, and a seamstress. You lived outside of the compound and had started a business with your best friend, Ume.
Heâd seen you struggling to pull the heavy wagon of material and immediately took over. You thanked him, but you were a bit disappointed. Youâd heard so many things and yet, he didnât even dress like a clan head. Catching you staring he asked, âWhat are you looking at?â and you said how cheap his clothes looked for a clan head, he blew up like dynamite.
That warring state pride and arrogance of his era was loud, boastful, and hilariously adorable. You laughed at his yelling, and immediately offered to mend what war had ruined of his robe. You didnât even think heâd show up, until he did, arms crossed, disgusted by all of the pink everywhere.
You began seeing each other. No labels, no word indicating where this was headed. Just passion. He was intense, brilliant, and extremely intentional. He had priorities and plans. He had just lost his last brother, and he had duty, his people, his clan, who still depended on him.
Konoha and Peace were at the top, along with continuing being one of the strongest. It didnât take long to realize you werenât as important as you thought you were.
Heâd disappear for days to weeks, at a time. He came back around when he felt like it. He didnât even have to show his face, you felt the eyes of his clan, watching for him, while he was too busy to do it. There were even rumors of different women, because the arrogant leader was a handsome bachelor and the elders wanted him with a Uchiha woman.
Youâd argue, but he wasnât like other men. He didnât have to yell, heâd let you yell and express yourself, going on about him not actually wanting to be with you, before heâd say something like âYouâre here, are you not?â and walk away, leaving a sour taste in your mouth.
And yet, even while swearing to your friends that you simply would stop seeing him, the moment he showed up, already unstrapping his armor, you let him in. Or if you tried seeing other guys, heâd interrupt the date, without making a scene, rather showing his authority, and you found yourself complying because none of the guys were ever as intriguing as he could be.
He could make you feel small, smaller than you had ever been before. Craving his attention. His validation. It all became second nature, like something in you had shifted. Ever seeking what he wouldnât give more than crumbs of, and when sex was introduced, you were hooked. You could hardly think without him. He was possessive, he was broken, yet perfect.
You wanted to fix him. Heal him. Show him that even without his family⊠he was still loved. However, now one year into your relationship, if you could call it that, your love was spreading thin.
âMadara, why are you here?â You asked. You hadnât seen him in nearly two weeks, and you were getting tired of the games.
He turned and glanced at you, before pulling you into his chest, kissing your neck, making you exhale.
âWeâre not on speaking terms,â you managed to say, lightly groaning.
âNo contact, was it? Such customs are for common men,â he brushed it off easy, when his tongue brushed against your neck, a moan slipped out. Abruptly shoving him away, he looked confused.
âIâm not a priority, this village is, your clan is, battle and victory is, not me,â you yelled, your voice cracking.
âYou arenât a priority, but youâre mineâ he agrees, but corrects.
Shaking your head, you turned away from him, but he caught you by your waist, pulling you close.
âYouâre so selfish,â you cried.
âI have responsibilities far beyond this⊠beyond you. Donât pretend any of this is new to you.â
âThen maybe we donât need to see each other anymore, maybe we should see other peopleâ you told him.
âHm, how many times did you practice that little speech for me? Look at me, say it like you mean it,â he whispered.
Slowly, you faced him, looking down before you met those charcoal eyes. You wanted to say it, to shove him away, yell at him. But seeing him this close, your heart fluttered, those dark, mysterious eyes, that wild hair that showed his victories. Instead, you slowly went to your toes, kissing him.
The kiss was hot, messy, consuming, the way you liked it. Madara picked you up easily, you threw your head back, moaning at the trail of passion marks he left, as he carried you to your bedroom. Though you didnât make it to the futon, before the two of you simply stopped in the hall, tearing the clothes away, his hand roughly cupping and squeezing your breast, as you pressed against him.
Going to your knees, as his cock sprang free, you immediately took him in your mouth. He groaned, pulling off his shirt, grabbing a fistful of your hair, making you take more than just the tip.
âEyes up here, let me see that fire,â he said, and he grunted as you took him deeper.
âGood girl, my good girl,â he encouraged as he started fucking your throat, that lazy arrogant smirk on his lips, seeing you make a mess all over him. Moving his hand down to your jaw, he grabbed it, loosening it, and he began to slip all the way back there. His grin widened at your gagging and spit.
You moaned, your head bobbing, as you reached your fingers up, touching his abdomen, just as he groaned and held you in place, cumming down your throat. Swallowing it all, you fell backwards as he released you. Looking up at him, your eyes watering, drool running down your chin.
Turning away, you looked at him over your shoulder, and turned back and began crawling down the hall. He slowly stalked behind you, stroking his shaft, he was not done with you, far from done with you. Not tonight. Not ever.
Humming softly, you dressed slowly, smoothing each layer of clothing. Adjusting to the maternity robe that hugged your six month baby bump. Looking in the mirror, you turned to the side, though your gaze lingered on the ring you now wore on your finger.
The wedding was beautiful, though you hadnât been given much of an opinion. Madara had the final say, he was perceptive, independent, and uninterested in following tradition the exact way the elders wanted. Despite stressing out his entire council, and not letting you even decide how your hair would be styled. It was apparently one of the most beautiful weddings in clan history.
Slipping on your outer robe, just as you were to put on your shoes, the guard spoke, making you jump.
âLady Uchiha,â he spoke, his eyes immediately went down to the floor. One of the many unspoken rules, you hadnât heard Madara say it himself, but everyone man in this village knew to not meet your gaze for more than a few seconds.
âYes?â
âLord Madara has asked that you remain within the compound today, heâŠprefers his heir to remain within his vicinityâ he said, carefully.
You paused, hand resting over your stomach.
âHe asked?â You raised an eyebrow.
The guard, still a teenage boy thrown into the life of a shinobi, he smiled awkwardly, keeping his gaze lowered.
âIt is his wish to keep you and his heir closeâ
You almost laughed. Of course it was.
âThank you, tell him Iâll be in the garden,â you told him, walking past him, further into the house, going towards the garden out back.
You made your way down the steps, into the small garden, you felt his gaze instantly. He didnât have to say a word, with a simple grunt, the staff was approaching offering water. You were mother of his heir and the clan doted relentlessly. The young maidens gushed about how protective âLord Madaraâ was and they were happy he married and a baby was on the way.
Meeting his gaze, you stared for a few seconds before you finally looked away. The clan, the village, Hashirama, they could think that the two of you shared a happy marriage, that you had managed to make the great Madara Uchiha settle down. You felt silly at times, knowing you were closer to the bottom of his hierarchy than they knew. He had you in the palm of his hand, he never denied it. Possessive and controlling, down to the clothes you wore, and yet he was honest and that was the only things that kept you from leaving.
please ignore my errors or Iâll die from embarrassment lol
