Sorry, my computer broke down and it was all bad like, but I have it back now, but I won't be updating after this until after November, because my HSC is officially in my life.

Then again, I might update at the same pace I have been. I swear though, if I don't start working straight after school, I'll be updating a lot faster. But like I said, that's an if.

Thanks for the reviews guys, I really like them. It's my favourite part of writing stories.

Oh and a warning, in this chapter, Naruto has more colourful language. And I'm going to have to up the rating, just to be safe.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto!

The sun was shining through the window and landed on Naruto's face. Hinata had not slept yet. She was just watching Naruto's face as he slept. She could honestly say that he had not slept well. His face would twist and turn as expressions of agony and pain were written clearly across it. She felt so bad for him. He did blame himself for his mother's death. A night that started so good for him, for them, turned into something sour, and agonizing.

There was a knock on the door, something that would have usually woken Naruto up, but he didn't even stir. The sun would have woken him up, but nothing. No movement. Hinata was starting to worry.

She got up to answer the door. Just as she was about to open it, however was on the other side knocked again. She wait until the person was done, after all, she didn't want to get hit by the knocking person.

Hinata opened he door to find Tsunade. She looked worried; perhaps Jariya had told her what happened the night before? Either way, Hinata was glad that she was here now. Naruto needed some kind of help. Help that maybe Hinata couldn't give him.

"How is Naruto this morning?" Tsunade asked, dragging Hinata from her thoughts.

"I don't know he's still asleep." She replied. "But I think he'll be upset when he's awake."

"I had have a feeling he will be as well, Hinata. How are you this morning?"

"I'm fine; I'm just worried for Naruto. How did you know to check up on Naruto anyway?"

"Jariya told me what happened last night. Did Naruto hurt you at all?"

"No… but for minute there, I thought he might. That was until he completely broke down. He'll be alright… won't he?"

"I think in time, he will be. We just have to let him adjust." Tsunade's words held comfort for Hinata. Then she slightly looked past Tsunade to see Sasuke and Sakura walking towards them. Tsunade saw this too and decided to bid her farewell to all of them.

"Hey, Hinata. How are you feeling?" asked Sakura, as she noticed the worried look on Hinata's face.

"Yeah, I'm fine. How about you guys?" she asked. She had to admit. She was tired.

"Sasuke had a bad feeling about Naruto, so we came to check on him. Is he ok?" Sakura answered.

"He's asleep right now, but I can make you some tea and we can chat or watch some television until he wakes up."

"That would be nice, thank you, Hinata." Replied Sasuke.

The three of them then headed inside.

As they were talking Naruto stirred. Needless to say he was not in a happy mood. In a way he would give anything to take the knowledge of his past away. All the hurt and anger inside was unlike any other pain he had ever experienced.

Noticing that Hinata was not beside him, he reluctantly got up and walked over to the door, along the way he kicked his foot on the cupboard beside the door and swore as he opened it, walking furiously out into the lounge room where Sakura, Sasuke and Hinata were sitting, watching him. Naruto took no notice, not bothering to throw a shirt or a pair of pants on, he walked around in his boxer shorts. A scowl spread over his facial features.

Mumbling about moving that stupid cupboard, he walked into his open kitchen and opened the top cupboard and pulled out a cup. He slammed the cupboard door, making the other three jump. He faced his back to them as he played with the kettle.

All three noticed the massive scar that spread across his back (A/N if you don't remember that, and the one on his chest, you should go back and read chapter one). This made Hinata a little confused, after all, Kyuubi healed him so that no scar remained on his perfect skin. She would have to talk to him about that later.

Naruto was suddenly aware of the three sets of eyes peering at him. Watching him. He burned his finger.

"OUCH! Fuck!" he swore, after all it may only take a few seconds to heal such a small injury, but it still hurts.

"Naruto, watch your language around my son… or daughter… watch you language around my baby!" Sakura almost yelled, trying to keep her anger in check due to his already bad mood this morning.

"Your baby isn't born yet." Naruto retorted without turning to face them.

"That doesn't mean it can't hear you and subconsciously remember it later in life." She shot back.

"It's my apartment!" check mate! Naruto won that argument.

Sakura sat down in a huff, no longer watching him, but watching the blank screen on the T.V. then remembering that they were talking and hadn't used option B.

Naruto made him self a coffee and sat down at the kitchen table. He rubbed his eyes, still tired from the lack of sleep. Sure he had slept but it had been restless. He felt ashamed of his actions against Hinata the previous night. He rolled his head back and pinched the bridge of his nose and shut his eyes tightly afraid of the answer he might get.

"Are you ok, Hinata?" he asked.

It took her a few minutes to understand what he was talking about. "Yes, I'm fine Naruto, what about you?"

"I'm as fine as I've ever been." He replied. He looked at her and smiled sadly at her. He then got up and walked into his room to get his stuff so he could go for the shower he didn't get the previous night.

As soon as they heard the shower start, Sakura turned to Hinata.

"What happened?" she asked, her voice was laced with concern.

Crap. Hinata thought. How was she going to explain this one?
