Hello fellow Naruto lovers. This is just a one shot. Hope you love it. Do go a bit easy on me. This is my first work. No flames please. Constructive critisism is welcome.
The sky turned multi colored with the fireworks.
The man. The legend. The seventh hokage of konohagakure was staring at the night sky through the window.
He did not know the reason of the fireworks. Maybe the villagers were celebrating the victory of Boruto from two days ago. He did not leave the office in the last two days, too occupied in this work to care about the outer world.
His son hated him for that, but he was just a boy. Just a cocky little boy who wants his name to be known far and wide.
The door of the office creaked slightly. Naruto stiffened.
A voice . A familiar voice called his name.
" Sasuke."
"What are you doing here in the dead of the night?"
" Just resting for a bit after completing my work."
" It is time you came home Naruto."
A confused look made it's way onto Naruto's face.
Sasuke reminded him that he had not been home in two days.
Himavari would kill him if he doesn't go home now.
He lets Sasuke leave first and closed the door behind him as he left.
" So what are all the fireworks for Sasuke?"
" You shall see Naruto."
They stop before Naruto's house. Naruto did not like to live in royal buildings or such. Just a simple cozy home that reminded him of his and his family's roots.
He made his way to the front door. and set his hand on the knob. He mentally prepared himself for all the hugs and punches that Himavari would deliver and man he missed the soup which Hinata made.
He turned the knob and pushed the door open.
Silence greeted him back.
He made his way to the middle of the room. No one was present in the house. Maybe they were at the fireworks enjoying the show. He made his way to the door and only then did he hear a door slide open.
Fifteen people all at once on the top of their voice screamed his name and balloons crowded the room. He could only make out a single voice out of them all and that voice said " Happy birthday Naruto."
It was his birthday. And he forgot it. His cheeks turned the color of velvet as he was lifted into the hands of the crowd. They set him down after about five minutes.
He made his way to Hinata who hugged him and wished him.
He then went to Himawari. She had tears in her eyes and said that she would hit him if he did not come home again for a long period. She handed him a neatly wrapped box. It contained a braclet which she made with her own tiny hands.
He sat down and started devouring a bowl of his favorite Ramen. He had finished eating five bowls when he heard a voice calling his name. He turned around to see his son.
They did not talk much but Naruto loved his son and deep down he knew that his son did too.
Boruto hugged him and wished him a happy birthday. He ruffled his son's hair and set him down.
A smile tugged onto Boruto's face and he looked up at his dad.
" So dad how about a little competition. Let us go to Ichiraku Ramen and see who can eat more bowls of pork Ramen."
Naruto's face beamed and his mouth watered on hearing the words pork Ramen. He flashed a thumbs up at his son and they made way to the door.
Five minutes later they were both staring at each other as a bowl of Ramen was set before each of them.
Two hours and fifty bowls of Ramen later Boruto lifted his hands in defeat.
This was by far one of the best days of Naruto's life.
Thank you all for reading till the end. Have a good day.
