Hey been awhile, I know, been SUPER busy, doesn't help that I don't have a decent word on my IPad. Anyways here we go!

After getting to the palace and getting the boy cleaned up by the healers it was now a waiting game. After a full 2 hours a healer came down to the lord's room.

"Your majesty, the boy you brought back is awake", the healer said while bowing.

"Thank you Sakura you may go now", Sasuke dismissed with a wave. Sakura bowed again then left while poorly hiding a blush. Sasuke made his way to the healing room. Once there he was met with quite a surprise. The boy he had saved was laughing up a storm with the healers that were present, acting as if he hadn't been hurt just 2 hours earlier.

Sasuke glared "Ahem." Nothing. "AHEM!" Nothing again. "AHEM!"

Everyone stopped and looked over at the agitated lord. The healers quickly bowed then scampered out as fast as they could. All that was left was the lord and boy, and what a sight he was. Sasuke saw bright blonde hair, like the sun, big blue eyes, like an endless sky, soft petal like lips, a lithe body with a tan made of golden light. Yes, he was a sight.

"What are you looking at teme?" voiced the boy rudely with narrowed eyes. And like that the moment was ruined, Sasuke glared back, "Nothing you baka!

"What did you call me teme?" screamed the boy.

"I called you a baka, baka!" Sasuke screamed back. They glared at each other a little longer before the boy turned in a huff away from the glowering lord. Sasuke glared heated a little longer before he took a big breath to calm down. After he composed himself he made his way over to the boy. The boy turned as he approached, glaring still. The lord sat in a chair by the boy's cot and took a deep breath, "What is your name boy?"

"It's rude to ask a person's name before addressing your own first," the boy glowered.

Sasuke glared, "Fine, my name is Sasuke Uchiha, Head of the house of Uchiha and Lord of the land of Fire. Now," Sasuke looked into the boy's eyes, "what is your name?"

The boy stared back, but with less menace, "My name is Naruto."

"That's it? Just Naruto."

Naruto glared, "Yes that's all. I have no house name, or title." Naruto looked away sadly, "I have no family."

Sasuke looked over the deflated boy sadly. Then an idea came to him.

"Well you can stay here if you'd like. There are many rooms and lots of jobs to do, once you're healed of course." Sasuke looked at the boy hopeful, he couldn't explain it but he was intrigued by Naruto.

Sasuke stared dazedly as Naruto broke out into a gentle smile that seemed to brighten up the room, "I would like that," and gave a light nod.

That's it for now,

Ja ne(bye)
