chapter one

----------

Naruto woke up with a start. And for once, he felt great. He rolled over and stretched, pointing his toes towards the wall, his arms reaching towards the top of his bed's headboard. he shrunk back into his usual position and slowly rose up, his hair falling over his eyes. Naruto pushed them out of the way. He needed a haircut. He got up and padded across his room into the bathroom, ready for a shower.

Just as Naruto finished up in the bathroom, a knock came from the outside of his bedroom door. Naruto softly said, " come in." The door opened and Iruka's head popped in. " Hey Naruto, you're up early. For once. Just thought i'd let you know breakfast is ready, so come down when you're done." Iruka's head dissapeared from behind the door. His footseps were heard fading down the stairs. Naruto shrugged and put on the clothes he had picked out last night. It was an ordinary outfit, composing of plain blue jeans, and a grey short sleeved shirt with a logo on the back and sleeve. He stepped into his jeans and tugged the shirt over his head. "shit.." he mumbled. He put it on backwards.

After much turning and struggling to turn the shirt around without taking it off, Naruto managed to get it right. He pulled on his socks while still standing ( he was too much in a hurry to eat breakfast to sit down), ran out his bedroom door, and down the stairs. Because he was running, Naruto almost tripped on the last step, barely catching himself by grabbing the rail. He slowed down after that incident, but still rushed into the kitchen. Iruka had barely set down a plate on the table when Naruto walked in.

Iruka was Naruto's adopted father. He was more of a big brother to him though. After Naruto's parents both died on cancer, one after the other, Naruto became an orphan, and thats when Iruka took him in as his son.

" Hey Naruto, that was fast." Iruka said, placing a piece of bacon on the plate as Naruto sat down. " Yea, well, i dress fast," Naruto answered back. He grabbed the bacon and stuffed it in his mouth, grease dribbling from his lips. Iruka handed Naruto a napkin, who wiped his mouth with it. " wants some eggs with that?" Iruka asked, holding up a pan in one hand, a spatula in the other. Naruto got up and put his plate in the dishwasher. " Nah, i gotta get to school, seeya Iruka." He rushed out of the kitchen. Footsteps were heard in the living room and the sound of the door slamming. Iruka sighed. He adopted Naruto as his son, but he never called him dad. Not once. " it can't be helped," he said to himself, taking out another plate and putting some eggs and bacon on it.
