Gaara's P.O.V.

'Something has defiantly happened over the summer to Uzumaki,' Gaara was sitting in his desk next to his brother, "writing notes".

'Probably just jealous of Uchiha. He did like Sakura.' Gaara shook his head, why should he care about Naruto anyways? They had nothing in common! Or so Gaara thought.

Naruto's P.O.V.

"What are you talking about?!" Naruto was getting angrier by the minute. His day was just not going well.

A knock at Tsunade's door interrupted Naruto and Tsunade's argument. Shizune's head appeared from behind the door.

"Tsunade, the guests are here to see you. Should I have them come in now?" Shizune asked. Tsunade gave a quick smirk to Naruto then nodded her head.

Naruto, was shocked what we're THEY doing there anyways?

Sakura's P.O.V.

"Wonder if Naruto is getting a bad punishment from Tsunade?" Hinata asked. Sakura stared at her. 'Why would Naruto be in trouble?'

"Hinata? Why would Naruto be in any trouble?" Sakura asked Hinata.

Hinata looked shocked. "Didn't Tsunade call Naruto into her office? So he must've pulled a huge prank for him to be in there this long!" Hinata continued to write in her notebook. She brought it everywhere writing down what happened during the day, just in case.

Now it was Sakura's turn to be shocked. "Hinata!?!?! Naruto didn't pull a prank. He was with Sasuke and me the whole entire time! Well except when he walked ahead of us, but we could still see him!"

Sasuke was just staring at his desk trying to put pieces together. 'Naruto didn't pull a prank, yet he is still in Tsunade's office. He took care of an old man, and no one has heard from his parents.'

"Sasuke are you alright?" Sakura asked gently shaking Sasuke out of his thoughts.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's Naruto I'm worried about."

Hinata and Sakura nodded their heads and stayed quiet for the rest of the period.

Naruto's P.O.V.

Iruka and Jiraiya walked into the room smiling. Naruto ran up to Iruka and hugged him. Iruka was his "brother" that "ran away". The real story was that he's his cousin (Jiraiya's kid) and he went to college and got a job.

"Iruka!" Naruto was so happy he forgot all about his summer for a minute. "What are you doing here? I thought you ran away!"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes and smirked at Naruto.

"Naruto," Iruka said pulling the blonde away from him. "I never ran away. I went to college." Naruto looked up at Jiraiya and glared at him.

"YOU!" Naruto was about to pounce on Jiraiya until Iruka continued.

"I work at this school now. I'm the school's guidance counselor!" Iruka smiled and pointed his thumb towards himself.

Naruto looked over at Iruka. "That still doesn't explain why either of you are here. So why are you guys here?" Tsunade came and turned Naruto towards her.

"You're officially getting therapy!" Tsunade smiled and then smirked after she saw Naruto's shocked face.

"I'm perfectly fine! I don't need any therapy at all!" Naruto screamed.

"Naruto," Jiraiya had a serious face on now. "You wouldn't even eat ramen! Now I know something is wrong with you!"

Naruto glanced down at his lap while Iruka was staring at Naruto like he just grew a new head.

"Ok!" Iruka snapped out of it and started smiling. "Your session starts tomorrow Naruto! Report to my office at first period!"

"Wait, how does this have to do any thing with that him?" Naruto said pointing at Jiraiya.

"Well, he's gonna be helping us by telling Iruka if this has been improving your home life or not." Tsunade said.

Iruka and Jiraiya left the room. Naruto looked back down at the floor. 'Why do I need therapy? I think I'm acting normal.'

"Tsunade may I go?" Naruto asked getting up. Tsunade nodded.

"Go to lunch now. No skipping classes or your in for it!" Tsunade said as Naruto was closing the door.

By the time Naruto got to the cafeteria, everyone was already settled down and eating. He went to grab a bowl of ramen from the lunch lady's who served them, then sat down with Sakura, Sasuke, and Hinata.

"Hey dobe!" Sasuke said greeting Naruto.

"Teme," Naruto sat down and slurped his ramen while leaning his head on his arm.

"N-naruto?" Hinata asked blushing. "How did everything go with Tsunade? What happened?"

Naruto looked at her and stopped slurping his ramen. "Why do you care? You never ask what happens when I go to see Tsunade."

Hinata looked away blushing. 'That's right I never do. Normally I already knew why he went. This time though, I don't.'

"Well I was just wondering, you don't seem yourself today. Plus I haven't seen you all summer except for with some old guy.

Naruto dropped his chopsticks. 'Do they know? I have to get out of here!'

"Later guys! I have to do something!" Naruto runs off outside to the swings. Even though his friends are close he doesn't want to tell them.

"Hey Uzumaki!" A voice called. Naruto knew that voice! He turned around and stared at the kid shocked.
