I'm back! I'm in such a great mood as I just got my results for my GCSEs! (Important exams here in the UK) and I just HAD to write a wee lil chapter… I'm just simply so giddy!

In case anyone is interested, I got the following grades:

Additional Science: A star

Art: A star

Biology: B

English Language: B

English Literature: B

History: A

Latin: B

Mathematics: A star

Science: A star

Spanish: C

Total: 4 A, 1 A, 4 B, 1 C with an A3 points, A2 and a B1, that makes 18 points, and I only needed 10 to get in! Umm… and an 'A star' is like an A+ if anyone is confused…

Anyway, here's the next chapter!

Disclaimer: Naruto is not my creation, I simply use it for my own amusement… and yours hopefully as well…


"Yo-you… you WHAT?!" Anko all but shrieked. She couldn't believe what she just heard. He was going to… he was going to kill himself. She suddenly found her heart beating hard against her chest at the thought of it. She could hardly breath.

But… he said that he was going to kill himself, which meant that he didn't go through with it. Or something had interrupted him. But… what?… or who?

"Na… Naruto…" She didn't know how she was supposed to react to this. It… this was a completely different side of Naruto, she'd never had guessed that he'd been like that. It was… unbelievable to say the least.

Meanwhile, Naruto had turned to look at Anko to see her reaction, but her eyes looked completely empty, and her posture was stiff whilst she was shaking slightly as well. After retracting his claws, he gently took Anko's hands into his own, and was surprised to find that the had gone cold, as they were usually warm and soothing.

After a while, she locked her eyes with his, and Naruto could see that she didn't quite understand something, so he waited until she could talk.

A few minutes passed before she spoke.

"What… you said… you said that you… were going to ki-ki… yourself… why?... what happened to… change your… what stopped you from...?"

Naruto smiled softly at her before he answered. "I was lucky enough to have a friend as great as Iruka… who was always there for me…"

Anko suddenly understood why Iruka and Naruto were so close now. She'd always wondered as she could tell that Iruka had such a large soft spot for the blond, but it all made sense to her now. Iruka had literally saved Naruto's life.

But she could tell that there was still a lot which Naruto hadn't told her yet, but she could also see that he wouldn't reveal anymore of what had happened, but she was okay with that. He'd completely trusted her, and with that, she knew – she just knew – that this would make them closer, that what they had was important to the both of them.

A grin which literally split Anko's face in two made itself known in her face before she launched herself at him with all her might, making him fall back on his back on the couch with her on top, smothering his face with butterfly kisses.

Naruto was… baffled. He didn't know what brought this on, but who was he to complain. He liked the attention.

After a few moments of more butterfly kisses, Anko finally stopped, ending it with a long peck on his lips. She laughed when she saw the expression on his face. It was quite comical. He looked like a confused kid.

'So cute…'

"You okay Naruto?" She asked.

Naruto blinked before he slowly nodded, as if her was weary of Anko.

Anko giggled before she jumped up and began to drag him out of the room.

"W-where are you taking me Anko-chan?" He asked, generally confused.

"I'm starving, so we're going to get some dango!"

Naruto looked around the room in disbelief. He knew that his love for both ramen and dango was unhealthy, but her obsession made his look like he despised the foods.

Naruto smiled.

'That's Anko for you…!"


And that's a rap. This was just my little way of celebrating the good news. I'm not sure when I'll next update though…

I know it's short, so please, don't say anything about that. This was just a lil extra bit on the side from the last chapter…
