Vitty Rose: Hey everyone, this month has been hectic has it not? With this whole Redbootton crap, authors leaving authors coming back. -Sigh- Anyway on with this new story. Hope you enjoy. ^-^
Summery: After repeatedly getting in trouble in his hometown, Naruto's parents decided it would be good for a change and send Naruto to his Godfathers house for the Summer. SasuNaru!
Warning: Um... We'll just see how this goes.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
SasuNaru
I casually let my arm hang out of the car window as my mom drove down the fairway to the train station, her red hair blowing everywhere.
"Oh cheer up!" She gave me a big grin that could match my own, before she turned to face the road again.
"Mom, does dad hate me?" I asked, frowning while cars, trucks, and motorcycles whizzed past us.
I heard my mom sigh. I looked at her; I could tell she was having a hard time answering my question. I just shook my head turning to instead rest my face on my hand while watching the road, the strong wind from the window throwing my own bright blond hair in a frenzy.
"Your father doesn't hate you, Naruto," my mother said. I turned to look at her; she gave me a stern look. "Don't ever think your father hates you." She looked away from me again, "He's just very disappointed, that's all."
I didn't argue with that, I knew my father was disappointed in me. Hell, he had every right to be! I knew I messed up, big time, but isn't that what kids are supposed to do? Well teenager, since I am seventeen.
"Listen, it's just been a really long year, with the new baby and all. It will be good for you to take a break. Maybe get a summer job, earn some cash. Find a girlfriend."
"Mom!" I whined.
"Or boyfriend, I mean whatever you prefer-" I made a disgusted look.
"MOM!" I yelled.
"What? I mean you are seventeen and haven't gotten a girlfriend yet?" my mom happily pointed out.
"Mom really? Really?" I said disbelieving. How could she bring this up now, now! Of all times.
"I'm just saying me and your father would support you in any decision you were to make." I sighed; could this get any worse? "Now I mean even if you are with a guy, you have to promise me you will be protected!" my mother said seriously. "Because even though they can't get you pregnant-"
"Wait, hold the train a minute, what do you mean they can't get me pregnant? You make it sound like I would be the uke!" I said. I was surprised to hear my mom laugh.
"You! Seme! Pfft! Oh sweetheart, no way would you be the seme."
"MOM!" I yelled.
"Naruto, son, let's be serious, you don't really have what it takes to overtake a man."
"Mom! Seriously, can we get off this topic, please!" I begged.
"I'm just saying you didn't quite stop that Sai guy from kissing you," my mom pointed out. And to think I thought that was behind me.
"Mom I told you, he was just teaching me to kiss," I fought back.
"Mmhmm! So you say." I sighed and blasted the radio, letting my thoughts drift off to what my summer was going to be like, and my godfather. That's right, I've never met my godfather before. He's apparently some huge author, and my name was chosen after the main character of a book about ninjas. The first book he had published, and the only one not about porn. Ironically also the only book that didn't sell well.
My godfather's name is Jiraiya S something. I've only seen pictures of him. Somewhere in his 60's now. Oh well, I could only wish for the best; that man did teach my dad all he knew about writing.
~SasuNaru~
"Mom, for the last time I'm going to be fine, I promise, and I always keep my promises. That's my Nindo way." I smiled, handing the train attendant my suitcase. My mom only smiled, brushing some of my hair out of my face. Before she pinched my cheek HARD!
"You will call as soon as you hit Konoha, understand!" my mom said seriously, a hard grip on my whiskered cheek.
"Yes ma'am!" I said, hoping she'd let go of my cheek.
"You will brush your teeth every day?"
"Of course."
"And you most definitely won't cause Jiraiya too much trouble?"
"None whatsoever," I promised.
"Good!" My mom finally let go of me, putting me in a pain-gripping hug. "I can't believe my baby's leaving me for the whole summer!"
"I promise I'll email you every day and tell you how everything is going."
"Sir, it's time to board the train." I nodded at the man before forcing my mother to let me go.
"I gotta go mom, but I love you. Make sure my new baby brother is safe." I gave her one last hug before climbing on the train, grabbing my suitcase from the man, then finding a seat. I smiled at a man with gravity-defining hair, taking a seat in the row next to him.
"Kakashi," the man said, holding his hand out.
"Naruto." I shook his hand then leaned back in my chair, before I noticed him reading a book I was quite familiar with.
"You've read the book?" Kakashi asked when he noticed me staring at the book.
"Nah, my godfather wrote the book. That's who I'm going to see." I grinned.
"Ah, you're Jiraiya's godson!" Kakashi smiled, or so I assumed; I really couldn't tell with the mask.
"You know my godfather?" What were the chances of that?
"Well it's hard not to, the town of Konoha isn't a big town. Everyone knows everyone. My husband is actually a school teacher down there, but of course he's on vacation now."
"How long have you lived in Konoha?" I asked curiously.
"Well, all my life, of course. I was only here in California for a short visit with an old mentor, but unfortunately he's going through a lot at the moment and I wasn't able to catch up with him."
"What was his name?"
"Minato Namikaze, maybe you know him?"
I laughed, "My father actually."
Kakashi nodded, "Should have guessed it. You're like a mini-me of him." I pouted; I didn't like being compared to my dad.
The rest of the train ride consisted of Kakashi telling me all the stories of Konoha. I was surprised to find out, this man I just met had been more in my life than I realized. I felt happy and ready to spend the summer with my godfather Jiraiya. I had no idea that this one summer, this one meaningless summer, would change my life forever. Smiling and laughing along with Kakashi, I could feel it in the air: this summer would be different.
~SasuNaru~
I took in a big breath as the country smell hit me. Maybe my mom was right; maybe this was exactly what I needed. "Ready, Naruto?" I smiled and nodded at Kakashi as he handed me my bag. If you're wondering, he offered to show me to my godfathers house, since I obviously didn't know where it was.
"So Naruto, how do you like Konoha so far?" I looked around, and frowned. I could tell right away that this was one of those small towns trying to fight against westernization, small posters on the walls and windows of the shops titled in big letter, 'STOP BIG CORPORATIONS FROM RUINING OUR TOWN'. Great, just what I needed.
"Naruto?" Kakashi asked again.
"Oh sorry, spaced out a little."
"Yeah," Kakashi sighed. "This town can do that to you."
I 'hm'd' in agreement, before asking, "What's with all the posters around here?"
"Ah those, ever since the big corporation 'Uchiha Inc' or something moved in, they've been trying to build a super mall or something, and you know old folks. They freaked out at the first sign of something they're not used to," he informed me.
"Super-mall? They're building a super-mall and people are freaking out?" I asked in disbelief; by-standers on the street just glared at me, obviously didn't like my intake on the matter.
"Well think about it, what will happen to the smaller shops when a bigger and cheaper place comes and they can't keep up with the prices?"
"They'll close," I replied.
"Correct. Some of these places have been around so long they're historical. It would be sad to see them go." I frowned, so it wasn't so much of saving the shops but keeping the history. I didn't voice my opinion, I instead chose to direct my attention to the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I found time itself seemed to stop; I knew I'd love this town.
"Um... Naruto?" Kakashi asked.
"R-r-r-r-r-r-r,"
"Naruto?"
"RAMEN!" I ran straight into the ramen shop, only stopping to maneuver around pedestrians.
"HEY, WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!" Or maybe not.
Only a couple of people were in the ramen shop to my surprise; I didn't take enough time to ponder it and took the first open seat, setting down my suitcase.
"I would like an order of miso ramen, please," I said with a big grin to the old man. It wasn't long before a hot steaming bowl of ramen was set in front of me.
"$5.99," the old guy said, holding out his hand.
"Oh, ah, right away." I reached for my back pocket to find it empty. I gave the man an awkward grin before standing up and pulling out all my pants pockets. "Um..."
"Here you go." What? I watched as the old man nodded, taking the money before turning to another customer. "You really shouldn't run off like that." I just glared at Kakashi before taking my seat again, digging into my ramen.
"Emm!~ So good." I quickly sipped down all the juice before standing up, patting my stomach. "So good. It's not as much as I normally eat, but it will do."
"That was a big bowl of ramen." I gave Kakashi a disbelieving look.
"Big bowl? Ha! That's nothing, ten of those would fill me up not hungry. Hungry, let's just say ten isn't nearly enough."
Kakashi smirked, "I will have to take you up on that challenge one of these days."
I smirked, "Just don't say I didn't warn you."
We left the ramen shop, suitcase in hand, heading towards my godfather's house.
SasuNaru~
I sighed, looking at the small house. Kakashi just strolled right past me, knocking on the door. A woman with dark blond hair in two low pigtails, yellow eyes and huge, no I mean HUGE boobs answered the door. She couldn't be older than 35, no way.
"Kakashi? What are you doing here? And who's the brat?" I glared at the woman, attitude much?
"BRAT? WHO ARE YOU CALLING A BRAT, BA-CHAN!" I should have told you one of the reasons I got into a lot of trouble is because I can't keep my trap shut, and now looking upon this woman whose face started to turn red from anger, I realized maybe I should start to learn to keep my mouth closed.
"Tsunade calm down, he didn't mean it! Did you Naruto?" Kakashi turned to me with a nervous look.
"Pfft, as if." What did I just say? Damn, I should really learn not to retort on instinct.
"Naruto? Naruto Uzamaki?" The woman's, also known as Tsunade now, anger died down, when she heard my name.
"Yeah, so what's it got to do with you?" I asked.
"Well I'll be darned, what the hell are you doing out there, come in, come in." I just raised an eyebrow, shrugging my shoulders, following Kakashi inside 'til Tsunade stopped me by putting a hand on my shoulder. "By the way, if you call me ba-chan again," she gave me a smile. "Let's just say you won't be spending your summer having fun." I just shrugged it off, taking a seat next to Kakashi on the sofa. Her living room was pretty big, with a computer on the far wall and two bookshelves filled with various different books and authors. The sofa that Kakashi and I were sitting on was directly in front of the TV, with two recliners on each side of us. Tsunade took a seat in one.
"So Naruto, I can see you have a lot of your mother in you, but your dad's looks." I raised an eyebrow.
"You know my parents?" I asked.
"Know? I use to babysit your father when he was only in his diapers, your mother I met at the wedding. Very beautiful, but had a mouth, much like you." Diapers? How old is this woman?
"You use to babysit my father?" I asked.
"Yep, but he was more like a son to me since I've never had any kids before." I just nodded; I was surprised, why haven't I ever heard much about her?
"Anyway, it's about time I showed you to your room, wouldn't you say?"
"Yeah, just about time."
"HEY!" Tsunade glared at me. "Don't get snippy, brat!"
"Whatever you say, ba-chan!" Her face turned red again. I just walked past her into the next room, it was the kitchen; small but durable, with a small table in the corner. I just sighed and walked into the door that connected to a hallway; along the walls were pictures of what I presumed was her in her younger age, and pictures of my godfather Jiraiya.
There were three rooms in the hallway, one on each that I could only presume were the bedrooms, and the bathroom was the door in the middle of the hall.
"Your room is the one to the right." I jumped at the deep voice, it was definitely not Kakashi. I turned around to be faced with long white hair, red cloth and smoke.
"Jiraiya?" I asked. That had to be him.
"It's about time you got here! How's my godchild doing? It seems you haven't met Tsunade yet?" Jiraiya announced happily.
"Oh we met, didn't we Naruto, we even had a talk at the doorway that he doesn't seem to remember," Tsunade said, coming into the hallway, Kakashi following closely behind, reading that damn porn book.
"Ah, Kakashi! I see you're reading my newest book. How do you like it? Not too emotional, is it?" Jiraiya asked. Kakashi just smiled, still reading.
I ignored the rest of the conversion that was going on and headed to the room on the right. I was surprised to see it painted bright orange (my favorite color), and blue carpet with black bed sheets. My bed was pushed to the far wall with the dresser next to it, and my own bookshelf next to the door. I loved my room.
"Surprised?" I just looked at Tsunade with wide eyes. "Jiraiya's just been ecstatic about you coming; as soon as he heard he emptied out this room, this used to be a study, and got to work on building your room; he called your father almost a thousand times to try and get the room right." I looked over at Jiraiya, who was looking anywhere but at me; I just smiled.
"I love it, thanks Ero-Sennin!" I said, throwing my bag on the bed.
I heard a howl of laughter. I found ba-chan using the door as support to try and stay up while laughing her ass off; Kakashi was only snickering.
"What did you call me?" Ero-sennin half yelled.
"You know, ero-sennin, as in pervert." That only brought another round of laughter from Tsunade.
"He hasn't even been here for more than a day and already has you down pat," ba-chan laughed out.
"Yeah, Miss Ba-Chan," Ero-sennin commented back. Tsunade stopped laughing at once and punched Ero-sennin stright in the jaw, and when I say he went flying I mean he went FLYING, right into the door opposite of my room. I just shook my head and started to unpack, ignoring my little voice that told me maybe calling Tsunade ba-chan wasn't such a good idea.
The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. I realized after the first scene with ero-sennin and ba-chan that them fighting was very common. As it turned out ero-sennin and ba-chan weren't married or anything, she just visited a lot; they were just very old friends. Tsunade turned out to be the same age as Jiraiya, somewhere around their late 60's. Kakashi left sometime after lunch and bid a fairwell, promising to pick me up tomorrow to show me the town. I could only nod and smile. Tsunade ba-chan left sometime after dinner, saying if she didn't get back to the office soon her assistant would find her and take away her alcohol. And as I laid down in my bed somewhere around midnight, I couldn't help but be excited about who I'd meet tomorrow.
