Depend On Me

Chapter 1: Crazy Girlfriends

"Have another date with Anko tonight?" Naruto scornfully asked his father from his position on the living room couch, his thumb hitting the channel button on the remote he was holding to flip through the television's different programs. The young teenager glanced at his struggling father momentarily before dipping his free hand in to the bowl of popcorn that laid in his lap.

"Who else would it be? I swear she always calls at the last minute…Ugh! Damn it!" Naruto jumped at the sudden outburst from Minato who sighed in defeat and let the haphazard tie fall limply on his chest.

"Naruto…." The older blond whined in aggravation making Naruto tear his gaze away from the screen to settle his oceanic blue eyes on his disgruntled father. The younger blond let a light chuckle escape his lips at the poor sight he was meet with before getting up from the couch to head over to his father.

Naruto gently took his the man's hands away from the golden silk tie and worked his magic. Minato smiled sheepishly down at him while Naruto never took his focus off the cloth in his hands.

"Thanks son, I don't know what I would do without you." Minato said simply making Naruto flush a pretty shade of red when he felt his father's minty fresh breath ghost lightly across his nose. He blushed even more- if possible- when he realized how close in proximity their faces were.

"S-Sure dad." Naruto stuttered whilst tying the last knot and adjusted it so it was up to his father's neck. He let out a breath he hadn't noticed he had been holding and stepped back. Naruto willed himself to calm his racing heart from beating out of his chest before he spoke.

"There, all finished!" Naruto said with a grin plastered on his tanned face and Minato smirked at him.

"Thanks again, squirt!" He passed by his son and ruffled his spiky blond hair on his way over to the full-length mirror. Naruto pouted and stuck his tongue out at him. Minato pulled at the fronts of his tuxedo.

"So, how do I look?" Minato turned his gaze away from the mirror and looked at his son.

"You look handso- I mean great, dad." Naruto mentally kicked himself for tripping on his own words and just then the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Oh, I bet that's her." Minato bypassed his son and quickly made for the door.

"I don't even know why you even date that crazy bitch." Naruto grumbled moodily while glaring at the floor, a pout firmly placed on his pink lips.

"Naruto! Don't call her that!" Minato reprimanded over his shoulder while his son put his hands on his hips in retaliation.

"She threw a freaking butcher knife at me for eating the last of my dango! If that's not labeled as crazy, then I don't know what is!" Naruto annoyingly retorted before going back to the couch to watch TV and plopping himself comfortably on the pillows.

Minato shook his head and opened the door, not prepared for the gape-worthy sight his eyes landed upon once he did. A stunningly beautiful woman with short purple hair which was pulled up into a spiky ponytail stood at his very doorway with a light flush on her pale cheeks as he stared intensely at her.

Diamond earrings and a diamond necklace hung from her ears and neck (courtesy from him). The black sleeveless dress she wore hugged her frame perfectly to show off her curvacious figure. Strapped high heels that visibly showed her pedicured toes and in her left hand she held a black hand-bag. Her right wrist also adorned a sparkling, diamond bracelet.

It was different to see her all feminine and such. Usually she was a tom-boyish girl who liked to eat dango and act crazy, and it was even more unusual that she had on a dress. Well, he had only ever seen her when it came to work and she wore her all black police uniform just like the rest of them so you can't blame him.

"You look…..amazing." Minato managed to choke out after he had composed himself. The older blond chose to ignore the muttered 'slutty bitch' coming form the direction of the couch so he could concentrate more on the beauty before him. Anko smiled prettily at him, fluttering her curled eyelashes flirtatiously.

"Oh, I'm flattered, really. You look handsome yours-" She was abruptly cut off by loud barking coming down the stairs. All three turned around to see the snarling red canine barking at Minato's date and the older man quickly jumped in front of her.

"Naruto! Calm your dog down!" Minato yelled while shielding Anko from the distressed dog. Naruto, who tried to hide his smirk and quiet his snickering faintly called for his dog.

"Oi! Kyuubi! Come here!"

Kyuubi stopped at the command and made a jump for the comfy dark blue couch. He landed on Naruto (who had quickly put the popcorn on the table in front of him) and started licking his face energetically, his bushy tail wagging side to side happily. Naruto halfheartedly tried pushing the dog away from him, but soon realized it was futile since he couldn't stop his giggling.

"Kyuubi!" Naruto whined in between his laughter. The dog quit coating his master's face with his saliva and swiftly hopped off the couch to settle down by his Naruto's feet.

Kyuubi wasn't big, he reached the average height of a German Shepherd. He had golden eyes and black tips on his ears and tail, and his paws were also matted with black fur.

Minato smiled fondly at the sight.

"Well, we better get going!" Minato announced and lead the way out of the house, snatching his black coat before walking outside in the chilly night air.

"Bye, Naru!" The older blond smiled cheekily and closed the door. Kyuubi immediately jumped on top of the couch after Minato was gone and Naruto laid his head down on one of the pillows while Kyuubi laid his body next to his master's. The canine leaned his head against Naruto's chest and yawned tiredly, making his master laugh and scratch in between his ears lovingly.

Naruto stroked Kyuubi's soft fur gently while staring mindlessly at the ceiling. He could faintly hear the TV, but he paid no mind to it.

A few minutes later, they both fell asleep.

Minato and Anko slipped inside the two-story house silently. Anko made her way to the restroom while Minato around looked for Naruto. Hearing the TV on he made his way towards the living room.

When he saw his son lying on the couch with Kyuubi, he couldn't help but smile at the rare sight. He wasn't surprised when Kyuubi awoke and hopped off of Naruto and trotted lazily over to him

Minato quietly made his way over to his son, sliding his left arm behind Naruto's head while his right arm was under the other blond's knees. He pulled Naruto's body up against his and rested the smaller blond's head against his broad shoulder, silently making his way upstairs to his son's room and gently laying him on the fluffy sky blue sheets.

The blond father took off the black Converse shoes that adorned his son's small feet and then slipping off his dark blue jeans, leaving him in only his orange boxers and black undershirt that hung closely to the younger male's body. Minato tucked in his son and kissed his forehead lightly.

He made his way out and gently closed the door behind. When he turned around Anko was right behind him with a surprised expression on her face.

They both made their way to the living room to watch a late night movie. Minato put an arm around her shoulders while she in response leaned in against his side.

"Ne, Minato-kun?" His eyes never left the screen but he gave a grunt to signal that he was listening to her.

"Why is Naruto still living with you?" This time, Minato looked at her.

"What do you mean by that?" He questioned, confused as to why she would bring something like that into a conversation.

"Well, isn't Naruto already twenty-two years-old? He should be living somewhere else, not with his father." She continued on like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Minato frowned at her.

"I don't know where you're going with this Anko." The female cop rolled her eyes at the man's lack of understanding.

"I'm trying to tell you that Naruto should be making his own life now. You know, getting a girlfriend and hopefully getting married and having lots of kids. He's not going to be your little boy forever." Minato furrowed his eyebrows.

"I-I know that-"

"No you don't Minato, this is why I'm telling you this. Don't you think it's time to let Naruto go? He's holding you back from moving on with your life."

"My son is not holding me back!"

"Minato, please listen to rea-"

"Could we just drop this, Anko?" She stared at him long and hard but Minato did not relent in the least. She finally gave up and sighed and looked back at the television. Everything was silent except for the voices coming from the television.

He could hear the pounding of his heart in his ears, vaguely feeling something wet slide down his scarred cheeks but he ignored them entirely. Could Anko be right? He had seen the look on his father's face when she had mentioned it, it was as if he was actually thinking about it. Maybe she was right.

Could it be that he was the reason for his father being single on these years (minus Anko)? Maybe his father was too kind to say anything before, but Naruto was glad he had eavesdropped on them. He got up from his squatting position on the ground and went quietly to his room. He picked up his phone and speed-dialed number two (his father was number one) and pressed the electronic device to his ear. It rang a few times before a groggy voice finally answered.

"Naruto?"

"Sasuke..."

There was some shuffling and he guessed it was because Sasuke was sitting up.

"What's the matter? What happened?"

Naruto smiled slightly at his friend's concern for him.

"Um, you know how you've been trying to convince me to move in with you?"

Sasuke had brought the subject up a few months ago, but he kindly refused the noble offer. He had thought that if he left, then his father would be all by himself, but now since he had undeniably found out the truth what was stopping him now from moving in with his best friend?

"Yeah? What about it?"

"Well, I was thinking...maybe it won't be such a bad idea...you know, to move in with you? I mean, my dad can handle hims-"

"Pack your bags and I'll pick you up in the morning."

The blond grinned. The damned bastard couldn't even let him finish.

"Is Itachi getting on your nerves that bad?"

There was a groan.

"You have no idea."

Naruto tried to muffle his laughter so that his dad wouldn't know that he was awake.

"Well, I'll call you in the morning Sasuke, okay? You get some sleep."

"Hn."

Naruto knew that it meant 'bye' in Uchiha language. He hung up and hurriedly, but quietly, started getting out his suitcase and packing all his necessary belongings, including Kyuubi's. He didn't know how he was going to tell his dad, but he supposed that when he left, Anko him were going to have a blast.

"Stupid woman, can't she go bug some other family?" Naruto muttered angrily to himself.

A/N: Yes yes I know, I'm too horrible for taking this story down. Anyway, save it for the reviews that you might have. I put it back up for y'all so don't bitch. Hope you enjoyed! I did some editing to fit my ever-changing tastes.
