Ok, so this story has a bounced from one of my friends to another then to me. Unlike the other two, I'm not planning on taking it down. They both stuck with one long first chapter, but I'm splitting that up and changing stuff around in them. Now, there are parts on this chapter that I would consider light shounen ai, but it might just be like brotherly/friendly fluff, or something. I do hope you all enjoy! *bows*

Chapter 1: Friends

"Aniki!? Why'd you pick a fight again?" A gray haired child asked as he bandaged up his older, blond friend on a park bench.

"Because they were bullying you! As your friend I must defend you!" The blond said back.

"That may be true, but still. Inu-san and Hokage-oji-san told us not to get involved with any of the Uchiha clan besides Itachi-san, Shisui-san and Mikoto-san." The younger one scolded.

"I know, but that teme was asking for it! He shouldn't have done that!" The blond asked.

"And what exactly did he do, Naruto?" They both turned to see two dark haired boy walking up to them.

"Itachi-san, Shisui-san, hello." The gray haired kid said, waving at the two.

"Hello Shinjitsu, Naruto." Itachi said as Shisui gave his greeting. "So what did my otouto do this time?" He asked as he took a seat next to the blond as Shisui sat next to the other child.

"That teme was first making fun of Mi, then he and his stupid fangirls started throwing stuff at him! I just gave them a taste of their own medicine is all." The blond said as he got done being bandaged up.

"I told you that I was fine. I'm use to it by now." The two older boys just frowned.

"Well you shouldn't be! Why the hell are we treated like this!?" Naruto yelled at the younger one. He just looked down and apologized. "...No. I should apologized. I shouldn't have yelled at you like that."

"You are right though, Naruto. You two don't deserve this kind of treatment, but you must remember what we've told you." Shisui said as he patted the red head's head.

"Um...that was..." Naruto looked like he was thinking, making his friend giggle.

"You said that people are afraid of what they don't understand and put their thoughts into their children's minds." Shinjitsu said.

"That's right." That's when an ANBU with gravity defying silver hair appeared before them. "Hello, Inu-san."

"Hi Inu-san!" Shinjitsu said.

"Hey Wan-chan!" Naruto said as the two kids hugged the older male.

"Hello you two." He said with a smile on his face, not that any of them could see it. He then turned to Itachi. "Hokage-sama has a mission for you." Itachi just sighed and got up.

"I'll deal with Sasuke later. Just make sure you stay out of trouble, okay?" Itachi said as he ruffled their hair. They just giggled and agreed. "I'll see you guys later."

"See ya!" Naruto called out.

"Bye." Shinjitsu said.

"Well we should get going as well." Shisui said as he got up. "Come one." The two got up and took his outstretched hands.


"Hey, Shisui-nii. Can you teach us how to do that jutsu your famous for?" Naruto asked as he and his friend got into their beds.

"Huh? You're way to young to be learning something like that." The teen said as he tucked them in. "Why would you want to learn that anyways?"

"So if something like today happens again, we can just quickly leave." The youngest one said.

"Well how about this. When you guys are in your last year of the academy, then me and Itachi will teach you guys a really awesome jutsu." Naruto cheered as Shinjitsu eagerly nodded his head. "Well you two get some sleep. I need to get back to the compound. I'll see you guys tomorrow."

"Bye Shisui-nii!"

"Bye Shisui-san." The two said at the same time.

"Bye guys." With that he took his leave.

"I can't wait until we're in our last year now!" Naruto said as he jumped a little in his bed. Shisui just chuckled from the other side of the door and left.


"I have to pee." Naruto said groggily as he got out of bed. After getting done with his business, he headed for his bed. Before he got in, he heard something and turned to see that Shinjitsu was whimpering in his bed. Walking over to the bed, he woke up his friend and saw that he had tears streaming down his face and looked really confused. "Mi, what's wrong? Did you have a bad dream or something?" The blond asked, getting a nod. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"I don't want to bother you..." He said, looking at his lap. He then felt a pair of arms wrap around him.

"You're my best friend and like a brother to me. You can never be a bother. You got that?" The blond said. Shinjitsu just gave a small nod. "Good." Naruto crawled into the bed and put the blanket over both of them. "Now tell me what happened."

"I don't really remember much, but I do remember running through a forest and...and I was s-scared b-because no one w-was there and it was d-d-dark and there were m-monsters and..." He ended up crying into his friend's chest.

"It's okay. I'm here. No need to cry." Naruto said, rubbing he younger one's back. "I'll always be here for you."

"Really? Y-you won't leave me?" Shinjitsu asked, looking up at the blond.

"Of course. We're practically brothers!" Naruto said with a smile. "Now come on. Let's get some sleep for tomorrow." He said as they laid down and went to sleep.
