Chapter 10!!!!
4 months ago
"Where the hell is he?" Sasuke growled as he threw his phone against the wall, breaking it into a few pieces. He was freaking out. Naruto had been gone for over 2 months and no one was answering his calls and the drag club wasn't even letting him in any more. Sasuke glared at the broken pieces of his phone and huffed angrily. He stormed out of his bedroom into the living room where Karin was walking around the room with a fussy Tobi.
"Thank god. I need you to take him." Karin said as she crossed the room to hand Tobi to Sasuke.
"I can't. I need to go to the store and buy a new cell." Sasuke shook his head as he quickly went to the entry.
"Sasuke." Karin sighed as she followed the raven.
"I'll be back in like half an hour." Sasuke told her as he pulled on a jacket and grabbed his keys. Karin grabbed his arm.
"I need you here, Sasuke." She said.
"I'm just going to get a new cell. I'll be right back and then I can help you." He explained.
"Do you really think that they will answer your calls now if they haven't been answering your calls for the past two months?" She snapped. Sasuke laughed.
"That's why I'm gonna get them to change my number." He explained as if it was obvious.
"Sasuke." Karin snapped at him.
"Karin, you trying to argue with me is only making it take longer. I could have been halfway to the store by now but now I'm having to listen to all of this when I could be getting a phone." Sasuke snapped back before leaving the house and slamming the door behind him. He couldn't believe Karin was being so difficult about this, Naruto had been gone for two months and she didn't even seem to care. Naruto had always been there and suddenly he was gone, how did Karin not understand how important it was? Sasuke growled as he started his car and drove to the store. He picked out a new cell phone and even got them to change his number, however he had to wait to get back home to get everyone's number.
"That took nearly an hour, Sasuke." Karin sighed as Tobi screamed from his pin in the living room.
"Yeah, those people are seriously idiots." Sasuke told her as he pushed past her to find his old cell phone still on the floor.
"Sasuke, are you kidding me?" Karin nearly yelled at him. "I need you to help me with Tobi, you know your son? You have a wife and a kid and you're still more preoccupied with Naruto." She snapped.
"I'm just worried. You know he does stupid things. What if he's doing drugs or something? What if he's living out on the street or something because we're still living in his house?" Sasuke yelled back at her.
"Sasuke, you're not Naruto's only friend. You're not the only person he could depend on. Naruto wouldn't be living on the streets because all of his shit is gone so he probably moved into the dorms above the club like Neji or he moved in with Shikamaru and Kiba. And he won't be doing drugs because none of them would let him. You need to stop worrying about him so much." Karin snapped.
"I can't. Naruto's useless without me, you know. He's always, always depended on me." Sasuke snapped. Karin sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Whatever, will you at least pay attention to your son?" She huffed and went into the kitchen. Sasuke grumbled about Karin being an irresponsible parent as he went and picked Tobi out of his play pin.
"Hey, big guy." Sasuke smiled at the two year old raven.
"Daddy." The boy bawled and pressed his face into Sasuke's chest. He started crying about something, but Sasuke couldn't hear what the boy was saying.
"Hey, hey, calm down. I can't understand what you're saying." He said leaning the boy away from him.
"You an mommy are loud and it scared me and made me drop my robot on the floor and he broke." The boy cried. Sasuke sighed and saw the broken robot toy.
"Okay, how about I fix this and then we can play space robots?" Sasuke asked.
"Yay." Tobi smiled and nodded excitedly. Sasuke smiled and set his son on the floor to pick up the broken toy. Sasuke snapped the limbs back in place and handed it to Tobi. "I will get my space ship." He smiled and ran to his room, Naruto's old bedroom had been turned into Tobi's room. Sasuke took those few seconds to grab his phone and call Shikamaru. He knew Shikamaru was the one who would cave the easiest. The phone rang a few times before it was answered.
"Hello?" Shikamaru asked slightly confused.
"Shika." Sasuke said.
"You know I'm gonna block your number as soon as I hang up, right?" Shikamaru sighed.
"Just tell me where Naruto is." Sasuke said quickly, knowing Shikamaru was close to hanging up.
"He's living with me and Kiba. He's safe and everything. That's all I'm telling you." Shikamaru said. Sasuke felt somewhat relieved but also very sad.
"He's happy?" He asked.
"As happy as he can be." Shikamaru answered and hung up. Sasuke immediately hit the redial button but his number had been blocked. Sasuke growled but resisted his urge to throw his phone against the wall.
"Daddy." Tobi called excitedly as he ran out from his bedroom. Sasuke smiled and set his phone down to play with his son.
"Astronaut Tobi, this is ground control, are you ready for take off?" Sasuke said, mimicking a walkie-talkie.
"Yes sir, ground control." Tobi saluted Sasuke.
"You can start the count down." Sasuke said.
"Five, four, three, two, one." Tobi counted.
"Blast off." Sasuke smiled as he picked Tobi up and flew him around the room. Tobi giggled and screamed as he was twirled and swung around in his father's arms. "Oh no, astronaut Tobi, there's an evil space robot." Sasuke said as he set Tobi down and then started acting like a robot.
"You have to beep, daddy." Tobi laughed.
"Beep, beep, boop. I am a space robot. I like to eat little boys." Sasuke said robotically. Tobi smiled and held his hands like a gun.
"Bang, bang." Tobi shouted. Sasuke clasped his hands over his heart.
"Oh no. you shot me." Sasuke groaned dramatically and fell onto the floor. "I'm dying. Ow, ow, Oh no. I'm dead."
"Daddy, are you really dead?" Tobi asked somewhat worried as he looked at his father.
"No." Sasuke said. Tobi smiled and crawled on Sasuke.
"Daddy, can we watch a movie?" He asked.
"What movie do you want to watch?" Sasuke asked.
"The one with the ninjas." Tobi smiled.
"You can't watch that movie, Tobi." Sasuke shook his head.
"But mommy lets me." Tobi cried. Sasuke sighed.
"Fine, go get that movie." Sasuke told him. The toddler cheered and ran to his room to find his ninja movie. Sasuke put the movie in and set toys out for Tobi to play with and then went into his room to try calling someone who could tell him where Naruto was. He was calling people for nearly an hour before Karin came in angrily.
"You can't just play with Tobi for ten minutes and think that is okay." She sighed.
"He wanted to watch a movie." Sasuke shrugged.
"Sasuke." She sighed.
"I pay plenty of attention to him, Karin." Sasuke told her.
"He's your son, Sasuke. You can't just spend a few hours with him." She told him. Sasuke rolled his eyes. Karin huffed and pushed Sasuke into their room and shut the door before grabbing Sasuke's phone.
"What the hell, Karin?" He glared at her.
"We need to talk seriously, Sasuke." She sighed.
"About what?" Sasuke asked. Karin walked to her dresser and opened one of the drawers, pulling out a manila folder.
"Sasuke, you're married and have a kid and yet Naruto is still the most important person to you." She sighed.
"That's not," Sasuke started.
"It is true, Sasuke. Whether you see it or not, you're obsessed with him. You have this crazy overprotective obsession with him, Sasuke. You keep telling me that Naruto needs you and maybe he does, but you need him, Sasuke. You're going crazy because he's not here." Karin sighed.
"What does this have to do with anything?" Sasuke sighed somewhat annoyed.
"You love him, Sasuke. You're in love with him. You're not in love with me, you never were. I didn't even try to kid myself when we got married that you were in love with me. Sakura told me that she broke up with you because she knew that she wasn't your number one, I now understand what she meant." Karin sighed. Sasuke sighed as well.
"Every girl I've ever dated said that they weren't my number one." He sighed softly. Karin handed him the manila folder. "What's this?" He asked.
"Divorce papers. Your brother wrote them up so everything is good." Karin explained. "I'm not going to force you to stay married to me if it's going to make you this miserable." She sighed. Sasuke suddenly felt relieved.
"Thank you, Karin." He said softly.
"You really do love him, huh?" Karin smiled.
"More than anything." Sasuke nodded.
See, Karin knew the whole time. their "friendship" was definitely a little bizzare.
