Happiness

Chapter one

Iruka's pov

I walked through the orphanage. Kids were playing around; they were well dressed and looked happy. As I looked around none of the kids called out to me. Until I saw him; from the distance I could tell he wasn't well looked after, but as I got a closer look the state of him almost brought me to tears. His hair was a dingy yellow color. It looked like it hadn't been washed in a while, not just his hair but his whole body gave off an odor. His clothes were dingy and hung off his thin frame. He had on a pair of brown sandals that were tattered. His blue cerulean eyes were dull and didn't have that the shine of a happy five year old. I knew then and there that I couldn't leave him here. I walked over to the lady at the receptionist desk and collected all of his papers, signing a couple, and walked back over to the small child whose name I learned was Naruto. He was staring out the window and as I approached he turned to face me. Immediately his head shot down and he stood rigid. I kneeled down as not to look so scary, "hi Naruto my name is Iruka I would like to adopt you, would you like to go home with me"? Naruto's head shot up and he smiled, nodding his head vigorously. I smiled, "good. Do you have anything to take home with you"? Naruto shook his head sadly. "Don't worry I have plenty of stuff for you when you get to my house, come on". I grabbed his hand and we headed out after thanking the receptionist.

Well that's it for now I want to see what you guys think before I continue. R & R. you'll be my best friends if you do.
