Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

a/n: Sorry i've been out of the writing scene for a while. I'm having som difficulties writing this Kingdom Hearts fic, and I don't know...Anyways, enjoy this bit, and just like I've said before...HAPPY READINGS!!!

BTW: This takes place in a different kind of Konoha. Like a normal town. And, Naruto is a little OOC; maybe sasuke too. Konohamoru is about seven in this story.

Naruto's POV:

'I can't believe I'm going to have a family!' , was what I first thought when the adoption agency got me from the hell house foster home I had been staying in. But, when I saw where I was headed to, I became a little hesitant to continue on.

The nice adoption lady behind her oak desk handed me a small pamphlet that looked as though it had been made by a third grader, and sat back, watching for my reaction. I gazed down at the cover and immediatly felt my fake smile crease my lips. Fake smiles were easy for me to do now, since I've had such a shitty life. Ever since I was little, all I've known is that I should cope. It's been 14 long years, and now I've been adopted. I should be happy. But, as soon as I saw the rough sketch of the little town, I thought, 'They're sending me to the middle of nowhere...? Do they really want to get rid of me that badly...?They could of just asked politely for me to crawl in a ditch at least.'

I scanned the damned picture for a few more seconds before I looked up and smiled, "It's beautiful!"

"Glad to hear that you like it." she drawled in her deep voice, "This is the couple that adopted you."

She leaned over her desk again, extending a small photo towards me. I took it delicately and studied the men in the picture that were smiling warmly up at the camera.

They had their arms wrapped around each other, one of the men, a light haired, almost white haired man had his hands resting on the smaller brown haired mans hips. They were leaning close together, and looked like the happiest couple in the world. I couldn't stop looking at them. Finally, I was snapped out of my daydream by the lady.

"Do you like them?" she asked amusedly.

I nodded, smiling down at them as they were (seemed to be) smiling at me. This place might not be that bad after all.

She stood up suddenly and said, "Alright then, let's get you packed and heading to your new home as soon as possible!"

I grinned hugely, and clutched the photo to my chest as she led me out the door of her spacious office and into the main building. We made our way to the front doors where she turned to me and said, "Now you'll go to your house and pack your things. I think I can get you on the first flight that leaves for Konoha."

I nodded, smiling at her as she swiftly turned and walked away. And, just as I pushed open the door I heard her call, "Naruto!" and I turned.

She was grinning over at me, her hands in her suit pockets as she called out, "Congratulations by the way...have a good life."

She pivoted on her heel, and walked casually back into the building, her hand raised so she was waving back to me. 'Thank you', I thought as I clutched the picture tighter and went out the door to the car waiting for me on the curb.

It took me back to the foster home in good time. It wasn't too late before I walked in through the front door. I called out, "Mary, I'm back!"

A fair haired plump woman, not too much taller than me, came wadling in from a side room, and frowned. She pointed a spoon at me and growled menacingly, "You said you'd be back by eight."

I looked at the clock and saw that it was eight fifteen. I began, "But I'm only-"

Thwack!

My eyes widened and filled with tears as I felt the stinging of her slap against my face double in pain. I lifted my hand and rubbed the spot where she had hit me with the wooden spoon she had been carrying, looking at her dumbstruck.

"Don't just stand there! Explain yourself young man!" she cried, her hand raising again and comming down on the same cheek.

Tears spilled from my eyes as I gained my composure. Standing up straight, I mumbled, "The adoption agency got me parents..."

"Hmph...good. Now I don't have to see your sorry ass in this house any longer." she spat, spinning around and heading off into the kitchen to bang around in there for a while.

I just stood for a momment before I slowly trudged up the stairs to my room. When I opened the door, I saw that Konohamoru was already asleep. I crept over to his side, sat down, and stroked his hair, whispering, "Kono-chan...wake up...I have to tell you something..."

"Ugh...dun call me thut ridculus nme..." he mumbled sleepily.

I smirked sadly. He hated when I called him that. I waited for him to wake up before I said anything. I said slowly so he would understand, "Kono-chan...I got adopted today. I'm going to be leaving..."

He stared at me horrified for a momment before he started crying, fully awake now. He sobbed, "Naru-kun!!! Why?! You said you'd never abandon me!!!!!!"

"I'm not Kono-chan!!! I would never do that to you! I love you too much..." I cooed, hugging him to my chest.

He hiccuped and mumbled into the folds of my shirt, "You'll come back for me right? You won't leave me with that horible lady."

I stifled a sob of my own and said shakily, "...Of course..."

We stayed in each others arms the rest of the night, waiting for the sun to rise. We talked, cried, and finally when it was seven, I got up and started putting my meager ammount of clothing into my tattered suitcase. That was when we both cringed at the sound of the car pulling in front of the house. He latched onto my hand instantly, and stayed close to me until we got to the lawn. Where the car and that hag were waiting.

I turned around, and went to my knees, facing Konohamoru so we were eye to eye.

"Naru-Kun...promise me, you'll remember to come back and rescue me...?" he asked, new tears flowing down his cheeks.

"Of course my princess..." I grinned, earning a little punch from him.

"I'm serious..." he sniffed, wiping away the tears with his sleeve.

I pulled him into a hug and whispered, "I know...I promise."

That's when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I broke away from Konohamoru quickly, my face screwed up against my own sadness. I didn't look back at him. I hurredly stepped into the car, and bent my head down. Not wanting to see the hurt.

"Naru-Kun!!!!!" I heard him scream. "Naru-KUUUUUNNNNN!!!"

"I...promise..." I sobbed, blanching at the sounds of his desperate screams.

I looked up then, placing my hand against the window, gazing out at him with sad eyes. He ran to the side of the car and placed his hand against the window, opposite mine. The car was started, and he grew frantic, calling my name over and over. I just smiled sadly and mouthed, "It's okay..."

"NO!!!" I heard him cry, his little fists beating against the window.

The car then slowly started moving away, picking up speed as we headed down the street. Konohamoru tried to run next to us, but was left behind as we picked up speed. He stood crying in the middle of the street, and all I could do was look out the back window, smiling sadly as his figure grew smaller and smaller.

Norm. POV:

Two men stood waiting in the middle of a small crowd, watching as a plane came skidding down the runway. The smaller of the two turned to his partner and asked worredly, "What if he doesn't like it here?"

"Iruka, quit worrying. If he doesn't like it, we'll just send him back!" a white haired man chuckled through a mask.

"Kakashi...don't joke like that! I'm serious. What will we do?" Iruka said, turning to gaze up into his lover's eye.

Then, he whispered horrified, "What if he doesn't like us?!"

"What is there to not like about us?" Kakashi asked, putting his arms around the man before him.

Iruka huffed and mumbled, "I could think of a few things..."

"Flight A24 from Obito has just arrived." a commercialy voiced woman said calmly through the speakers.

"Aaaaahhhhhhh!!!!" Iruka cried out worredly, dancing around in a tizzy.

A few minutes later, people began filing out of the gate, looking around for their family or friends. But, not until after everyone left, did a blond haired boy come walking slowly out, acompanied by a kind looking woman. She pointed towards the two men, waiting anxiously, asking the boy something. He looked up, his blue eyes looking hopeful. They widened slightly, and before the woman had a chance to blink, he was dashing towards his new parents. He flew into them, his arms wrapping around both their waists tightly. Both Iruka and Kakashi were stunned.

"Well...I guess he likes us..." Kakashi smiled, patting his new son's head.

"Yeah!" Iruka laughed, putting his arms around his lover and his son.
