Today started as an unusual day as Tsunade and her assistant walked down the road to Naruto's apartment, wishing to surprise him rather than have him report to Tsunade's office.

"Do you really think this is such a good idea Lady Tsunade? I mean, I certainly agree that Naruto needs a companion, but will his apartment be big enough for the both of them?" Shizune asked Tsunade as she walked behind her, jerking a leash she was holding in order to urge a certain something to continue following them.

"Of course I do! From what that Kisaragi girl has told me, he'd be perfect for Naruto! In fact, I think he may be just the thing needed to keep that cheeky kid in line..." Tsunade said with a smirk.

Shizune looked back over her shoulder at the thing she was leading on a leash. It was a massive dog (enough to where his head was level with Shizune’s), a Great Dane, grey in color and with a tongue the size of a pillow as he swung his head around, looking at everything he could in the Leaf Village as they walked through it. Tsunade had gotten him from another ninja, a kunoichi that had introduced herself as Yuffie, and asked them to give the dog, who she had called Einstein, to Naruto.

Now they were on the way to Naruto's apartment, Einstein in tow, to give to him as Tsunade's idea of a prank. Of course, the other times Naruto had interacted with dogs had come out well, so all Shizune could think to do was just follow after her, Einstein on his leash, towards Naruto's house.

In the meantime, Naruto was in his apartment, having only recently returned from a training session with Kakashi.

He was honestly hoping that a mission of sorts would make itself available to him, due to how much he was itching for action. That was when he heard a knock on the door, and Tsunade's voice coming through it.

"Naruto? Are you in there?"

"Granny Tsunade!" Naruto said, leaping to his feet and opening the door, and allowing her inside. "What're you doing here?"

The woman didn't seem to react to hearing the boy’s nickname for her, which was rather odd to Naruto. Instead, she had a grin on her face.

“I figured I’d stop by with Shizune... We have a little gift for you...” Tsunade said.

”A-a gift?” Naruto asked with a quirked eyebrow.

“Mmhm, someone who wishes to remain anonymous thought you could use a roommate, so they decided to personally ask us to bring him here...“ Tsunade replied, right before moving out of the way, making room so that Shizune could walk in, holding a leash attached to something behind her.

”Naruto, meet your new companion...” Shizune said as she allowed the biggest dog that Naruto had ever seen to walk in front of her. “His name’s Einstein!”

The boy‘s eyes bugged out comically as the Great Dane towered over him, craning his grey neck down and sniffing him a little.

Tsunade witheld the urge to laugh aloud, instead forming a more mirthful grin as she watched the two.

”Just so you know, he’s already had his shots, and he’s got an official license, so he now legally belongs to you... You’re now an official pet owner. Hope you enjoy taking him on walks!”

Before Naruto could say anything else, however, Tsunade and Shizune left the apartment, closing the door behind themselves. Naruto stared at the door for a second, unable to believe that they'd just dumped a huge dog on him like this, especially given his trouble with other big dogs in the past. But at the same time...Naruto couldn't deny that it got kind of lonely in his apartment sometimes. He turned back to Einstein, raising a hand in greeting. "Uh...hey there, boy! Nice to meet you!"

The dog panted as he looked down at the boy he was towering over, his tail wagging from getting to meet his new owner.

”Soooo, uh, hope you like it here. I mean, I know it’s kinda small, but-”

Naruto was interrupted by the sound and sensation of a large pink tongue slapping onto his right whiskered cheek. The blonde boy crinkled his nose from the force of the tongue not only lifting the skin of his squishy cheek up, actually lifting him up to his tippy toes, which lasted for at least a couple of seconds before the tongue flicked off of his cheek, causing him to stumble backwards and land on his rear.

Einstein gave a deep bark, letting Naruto get to his feet and wiping the slobber off his cheek.

"UUuuuuuuuuuugh!" Naruto groaned as he wiped his cheek on his sleeve, looking back up at Einstein as he scrambled to his feet. "What the heck was that, boy? Did Granny bring you over here just to soak me like all those other dogs?"

Indeed, he was no stranger to encounters with dogs larger than himself. It didn’t help that a good portion of those dogs happened to be from the Inuzuka Clan. Whether it was a mastiff or a wolf-dog, he always ended up a slobbery mess, all because Tsunade didn‘t like being called granny or whatever it was.

Einstein, however...Even compared to the Inuzuka’s dogs he was massive! Not to mention a lot more slobbery, if that huge tongue was of any indication.

Suddenly Einstein stepped forward, slapping his tongue on Naruto‘s cheek and pushing his eye shut again. Thankfully Einstein didn‘t lift him up to his toes again, though the blonde boy lifted his arms up and tried to press his hands against the canine’s chest to get him to back away.

”Agh, okay, that‘s-”

* Smack*

* Slurp*

Einstein gave another quick lick, forcibly lifting Naruto’s cheek up and making it bounce. The dog pushed onward, unleashing a barrage of licks on the boy’s cheeks, all the while, Naruto was being pushed back while his hands were pressed against Einstein’s chest.

"No!" Naruto said while he was being pushed back, his right cheek's skin like putty as it was lifted upwards while a boyish grin formed on his face; "No, no licking!"

Einstein had heard these sorts of protests from his original owner before and knew that there was nothing to them, and so he kept licking, slurping Naruto's cheeks and making them bounce up and down. Eventually, Naruto felt his legs hit the side of his bed, and he pushed against Einstein, trying to avoid being pushed back onto the mattress.

"Nohohohoho, boy!" he said, laughing through the slobbery slurps Einstein was gleefully covering his face with. "Knock it ohohohohohohoff!"

Naruto continued his boyish laughter as the Great Dane slapped his tongue on the right half of Naruto's face, actually stretching it out cartoonishly as it slurped up to such a degree that it caused his blonde hair to slick upwards.

The tongue flicked off with enough force to actually forcibly push Naruto onto the bed, his back landing on the mattress. Before the boy could get himself up, he felt himself being pinned under Einstein's body, the Great Dane laying on top of him to such a degree that even his arms were trapped underneath.

"No, don't you dare!" Naruto wheezed.

But Einstein's tongue wouldn't be stopped, and he picked up the speed and strength of his licks, loud slurping and sloshing noises bouncing around the room as slobber flew everywhere, splattering on the wall and the bedclothes as Naruto kicked and flailed underneath Einstein's body, laughing even as his face was given a fresh coat of drool.

Einstein was finding himself enjoying the way Naruto's cheeks tasted. Heck, while he enjoyed licking Yuffie quite a bit when she was taking care of him, there was something about how squishy Naruto's own whisker marked cheeks were that he couldn't get enough of!

Naruto's face was being tenderized underneath Einstein's tongue like a tough piece of meat, the boy's world filled with slobbery smacks as his cheeks rolled up over and over again. No matter how much he pushed at the much larger dog, however, he couldn't get free, no matter how hard he tried. His entire world was Einstein's tongue now, filling his vision each time it swept down again to splat onto his face.

Thankfully, Einstein had allowed his new owner to have a break... After all, the boy still needed to get some stuff for the Great Dane, including dog food, and a couple of bowls for Einstein to eat and drink from respectively. After Naruto got those things, he then got himself showered, changed into some pajamas, had dinner (consisting of ramen of course), and proceeding with plopping himself on the couch.

Hard to believe that in just one day's time, he already had to get busy with setting things up for the pet that Tsunade somehow managed to get for him.

As Naruto sat on the couch, Einstein walked up to him, the huge dog laying his colossal head on the boy's lap as he wagged his tail slowly. With how big Einstein was, he didn't even seem to need to be on the couch to do so, to the point where he was laying on the floor while resting his head on Naruto's lap.

The blonde looked at the Great Dane, a small smile forming on his face as he pat Einstein on the head. Naturally, Einstein returns the favor by giving the palm of his hand a small yet all the same salivuous lick. Naruto smiled as Einstein's enormous tongue filled his palm, wiping it off on the couch.

"Jeez, boy, do you ever stop licking? At this rate you might drown me by the next time Granny Tsunade comes around!"

Einstein merely barked as he wagged his tail, panting happily as a dog like him was apt to do. Rolling his eyes at the response, Naruto shook his head.

"Times like this where I envy Kiba's ability to speak dog..." Naruto said with a chuckle before stretching his arms out. Shivering a little from feeling a chill, he then had Einstein get his head off of his lap for a moment before reaching for the blanket on the sofa, using it to wrap it around his small body.

Einstein of course, decided to help keep the boy warm, getting up from the floor and stepping onto the couch. The Great Dane suddenly wrapped his two front legs around Naruto, panting happily as he pulled the much smaller boy towards him.

The boy couldn't help but giggle as Einstein pulled him into a great big hug, grinning. "Heh, thanks boy! It's a good thing you're so warm!" He didn't see Einstein waggle his eyebrows, already thinking of another way he could warm Naruto up.

The Great Dane of course, decided to repay Naruto for his praise, in a way he knew how. While Einstein's size meant that he was able to provide warmth, there were other benefits to go with it, such as being a lot stronger than his young owner, which would allow him to keep the boy still for what he had in mind.

Which is why Einstein stealthily dove his large head down, his tongue gently pressing against the skin of Naruto's left cheek. After that, his tongue suddenly started slowly but forcibly pushing the cheek upward.

"Awhawhawhawhaaaawwww!" Naruto moaned through his laughter as Einstein's tongue slurped up his cheek, lifting his cheek up and pushing his eye shut at the same time. "Not agahahahahain!" Einstein didn't let himself stop with this one lick, either. As soon as his tongue left Naruto's cheek he slurped it upwards again and again and again, throwing slobber all over the place as each slurp knocked Naruto's head upward, making it bob up and down as the boy kicked his feet underneath his blanket.

Unfortunately for Naruto, no amount of kicking would get him out of the hold the Great Dane had on him. In fact, if anything, Einstein, didn't have to put much effort into keeping him still for the onslaught of licks upon his cheek!

Soon enough, Einstein then switched cheeks, proceeding to see if he could stretch it up just as much as he did the other one. Naruto continued laughing as the Great Dane soaked his other cheek just as much as the other one, stretching it out with each slobbery slurp as Einstein only increased the pace of his licks, stretching Naruto's neck out as the force of his tongue dragged Naruto's head upward. It probably didn't help much that the side of Naruto's hair was was also getting slicked up, as a result of the dog's tongue pushing up not only his cheek, but even his blonde bangs as well.

"O-Okay, boy!" Naruto gasped through his giggling and Einstein's licks. "Th-that's enough! Down! Heel!"

Einstein didn't stop however, due to him enjoying the way his new owner tasted to him. In fact, he didn't even notice how tired Naruto was starting to look! Naruto's whole world at the moment was nothing but the thick, slobbery pink slab of Einstein's tongue repeatedly engulfing his face, the ninja's head being thrown backward over and over as more drool was flung all over his couch, his cheeks bouncing, his forehead being stretched out, and his hair being slicked backwards. In fact, with each lick, Naruto's vision fluttered, the force of the Great Dane's affection starting to be too much!

Naruto wished he had the strength to squirm out of the great dane’s hold on him, but alas, he didn’t. He could really only endure the feeling of his face being slobbered and stretched by a huge pink tongue.

Einstein's stamina was amazing, and even as Naruto's consciousness faded, the Great Dane's massive tongue showed no sign of slowing down. Even as Naruto's hands and feet twitched with each massive slurp to his face, the Great Dane's tail continued to wag, until finally Naruto's head was lolling from side to side with each lick, the boy's eyes shut and an exhausted grin on his face.

Einstein stopped for just a moment when he noticed Naruto’s unconscious state, a chuckle escaping his mouth. He then proceeded to lay down atop the sleeping boy, his tongue restarting the licking session by slurping his whiskered cheeks upward.

Naruto didn't respond as his cheeks were bounced up and down, his head simply rolling from side to side as Einstein continued to lick him long into the night.
