Summary
This fic starts by following a few scenes in Naruto Shippuden episode 152 when Naruto finds out that Jiraiya has died. And then the fic starts to branch off as Iruka gets more involved in Naruto's healing process after losing his sensei.
Hurt and Comfort are the main themes, but yes, this is a pairing fic, so be aware that over the course of the fic that Naruto and Iruka will have intimate relations. This honestly started out as a headcannon and a one shot that got away from me because I couldn't justify Iruka stooping to this without more substance leading up to it, so I kept going until it felt .... believable?
Therefore, you all get to ride along on this guilt/hurt/comfort/etc train right along with me.
I honestly never mentally paired Iruka with Naruto until my brain did a weird thing with this scene, so here you go, I guess....
