A much more mature and realistic take on a Naru Saku highschool fic where Naruto is an underground fighter.

"The last time I saw you this beat up, you nearly died. Im so sick of this shit..."
"Shut the fuck up"
"There he goes again"
A deep grunt followed by a weak and weezy "Ill kill you, bitch" before Naruto went into another coughing fit, blood covering his balled up fist. Sasuke rolled his eyes at his friend for what seemed like the 100th time that night. Hinata narrowed her own pearly orbs, smacking the rather large and recently stitched up gash on his arm, he growled in response but quickly simmered down when he gazed at the harsh look upon her face. She was tired of playing.
"Sorry..." He mumbled, she simply nodded and returned to her work on his abdomen where he had been stabbed 3 times with a short blade, each wound was shallow and would only need a few stitches. Hinata took a deep breathe and returned to her work, silently saying a prayer for her blonde friend.
"Im getting tired of you trying to let yourself get killed over some bitch" Sasuke growled out, earning a deathly glare from Naruto and an almost lion like roar that scared Hinata so much that she took a step back, not wanting to get involved in the boys confrontation.
Sasuke just laughed and shook his head. "What are you gonna do? Fight me?" He laughed more causing Narutos look to grow darker. "She came and left in a fucking flash and took your god damn soul with her" Sasuke was almost yelling now, sick of watching his closest friend grieve over someone who didn't even care enough to tell anyone that she was leaving. "You didn't see it from the outside, Naruto, you didn't see what it was like to watch her rip your god damn heart from your chest and eat it whole" Now he was screaming.
Hinatas back was to the wall of the small sitting room that she and Sasuke shared, it wasn't often that she saw her boyfriend this worked up and it shook her to her core.
"I LOVED HER!" Naruto roared, throwing the tray of medical supplies that were next to him across the room.
"AND SHE LEFT YOU!" Sasuke yelled back just as loud, advancing to his friend.
"SHE LITERALLY LEFT YOU IN THE COLD AND I WAS THERE TO PICK UP THE PIECES" Sasuke was in Naturos face now. "I WAS THERE FOR THE WEEKS OF DEPRESSION AND DRINKING. I HELPED YOU PICK YOURSELF UP AND I HELPED YOU PUT YOUR LIFE BACK TOGETHER" He pushed Naturo back a little and Hinata audiably gasped. "AND NOW YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT FINDING HER AGAIN?" Sasuke pushed him again before scoffing and throwing his hands in the air, storming out of the room and slamming the door behind him.
Naruto stood there silently, hands on his chest where Sasuke pushed him back. He'd be lying if he said he didn't feel the tears pricking at his eyes.
From the other side of the room Hinata let go of a breath she didn't know she was holding. Naruto turned to her and shook his head. He turned then and went to the thrown medical supplies, picking up the tray off the floor, be began assembling the supplies as they were before he had lost his temper.
"I miss her too, you know" The bluenette finally spoke again, taking her seat again after Naruto finished cleaning his mess. Ne nodded, wanting her to continue. She gave him a solemn look. "Did you really love her, Naruto?" She asked, looking directly into his crystal blue eyes. He gave her the saddest most pathetic look she had ever seen in her life before nodding, biting his lip to keep from crying again.
Hinata sighed again before taking another deep breathe and closing her eyes for a moment, when she reopened them, she gave Naruto a knowing look. "We need to talk, Naruto."
The blonde have her a questioning look but nodded.
Before Hinata said anything, she weighed her options. Naruto was such a sweet and amazing guy, she had known him their whole lives. They grew up on the same street and he would run all the bullies off when Neji was still at school or at karate lessons until she met Sasuke. The first time she met the dark eyed boy she was 11, he'd saved her from a group of girls who were picking on her because she had recently cut her hair short. He told her he liked it better short and she hadnt left his side sense. A few years after that a new girl moved to Konaha from Suna with bright pink hair and shining green eyes and their blonde friend was head over heals. It took him a few tries before Sakura finally accepted his request for a date and the two of them had been together ever sense. Until she left, that is...
As much as Hinata wanted to spare Naruto, she felt that he needed to know the truth that she and Sasuke had been keeping from him and it was ripping her soul in two.
"Sakura was pregnant, Naruto"
