The idea for this came at 4 am while looking at fan art but needed to put it down on paper.
I just want to say I own nothing. Naruto belongs to Kishimoto not me.
Boruto had spotted his Sensei earlier in town leaving Ichirakus with his father. He figured he would follow his master till he could speak to him alone about training he watched as instead of his father breaking away to head back to the Hokage tower continued on with Sasuke on a path towards home. Technically he wasn't supposed to be over on this side of town every year him, Himawari and Sarada spent these two weeks with their grandparents. It was always strange that it happened the same time but it was around the day the fourth war ended. We just thought they would do normal things then have date nights. Still he watched from far away to keep hidden as his father opened the house door with a strange excitement in his face.
He waited about 30 minutes and they never came out of the house. So he suppressed his chakra still figuring he would get caught and headed for the house coming in through his unlocked window. Tilting his head to the side with confusion he listened intently as his father told Sasuke to stop moving so much and relax. Stealthily he left his room following the source of the voices to the slightly ajar bathroom door. He peeked and was dumbfounded at what he saw in a way he felt he was intruding and he couldn't even be angry for he had never seen his dad or sensei smile at anyone like they smiled at each other. The scene itself was simple his father sat on edge of the bath tub in shorts with his legs in the water around his sensei. Sasuke for his part was laying an arm over Naruto's knee to keep his relaxed position from pulling him under the water. His eyes were closed and a soft smile was on his face. His father's smile seemed to brighten the whole room and the bags that were normally under his eyes were gone. He was gently lathering Sasuke's hair with shampoo and talking animatedly.
If Boruto was being honest he had never seen his dad like this so child like and happy. It hurt to think that his father felt he couldn't be like that with them. Looking at the scene it hit him like a bucket of ice water this was what true love looks like. The trusted each other completely in any event enough to let down their guard that was the only reason he hadn't been found out as of yet. He quietly walked away happy for them in a way but feeling torn apart did his mother know? Where was she if she wasn't at home right now? Taking one last look towards the bathroom from his room door he hoped one day to find a love like theirs.
For now however he would go to ask aunt Sakura if she knew when her sensei would be coming back soon to train him. Yes it was indirect but this way he would know if she had an idea of this arrangement. Sarada was forbidden from going there as him and Hima were from coming here but he thought mischievously he was never told not to visit aunt Sakura. He raced from roof top to roof top till he got to the house landing in front of the door. As he was about to knock he felt his mother's chakra signature from inside and decided to check the windows to see what they were talking about. Paranoid about what he had seen at his house he just moved carefully hiding himself as much as he could.
They were in the kitchen cooking dinner so there was nothing to really see however their conversation was interesting. "Do you think the boys will be fine by themselves Sakura?" Sakura just laughed at her and went back to cooking. "Hina we have been doing this for years and you still worry look lets enjoy our week together since before the next switch off….. You know this would have been easier on them if the stupid council had allowed them to be together. Of course being the last of their clans didn't help or them being world heroes. Then again Hina we love those boys and I know it's selfish but I'm glad to be part of their lives. Anyways are you looking forward to your 4 days with Sasuke?" Hinata blushed deep crimson. " I am a little nervous I always am. I know he loves me like you and Naruto do but I see him less and think he will one day say he wants out of our relationship". Oh Hina he would never do that he loves too deeply those that get passed his armor unlike Naruto who loves selflessly everyone except for Sasuke. It makes sense for him to need love so much and Sasuke knows he couldn't be here all the time for him so he loves that you are there when he can't be. Now please no more of these thoughts and lets finish making our romantic dinner and watch a movie those guys would never watch."
Boruto carefully moved away from the window and slowly made his way back to his grandfather's house. He had a lot to think about and figure out. Not watching where he was going he bumped into someone. He tried to apologize and keep walking but the person stopped him by holding his shoulder. Coming back to his senses he realized it was uncle Kakashi and he seemed to have a knowing look in his face. " Come on Boruto lets go my house and talk seems like you need it." With a nod Boruto followed the old Hokage through the roof tops to the window of a small house. Now that he thought about it why did everyone in a ninja village have their windows open it was a huge risk? Kakashi wen in sitting on an old couch and pointed at the seat in front of him with his weird eye smile. "Now Tell me what has you thinking so hard?"
Boruto debated for a second then told Kakashi what he had seen and heard noticing he didn't sound surprised at all. " Let me tell you a story about two boys. They were rivals at school but also the best of friends with a bond strong enough to die for each other. The two were so different that they went in different paths one chose darkness to obtain power and the other stayed in the light pushing himself to bring his friend back to the light. They fought many times and even though they had opportunities they could never go through killing the other. The boy in the darkness grew and he realized that love was the reason he couldn't let go of his friend in the light no matter how hard he tried. His friend in the light was always surrounded by people and responsibilities so he never had time to think of what the bond was just knowing it was deeper than friendship. Everyone saw this and everyone tried to get him to walk away but he refused. His other friends worried for he had gone so far as to go to an enemy camp at the time and beg them on his knees to not kill his friend. Needless to say it didn't work and a great war began the two friends put aside their differences and fought together back to back and became heroes. Both boys returned home hand in hand but were quickly pulled apart first the boy that had returned had to prove himself to be pardoned. That was just an excuse from the council as they put law CRA into effect because of the war. If a clan has only 1 member they are to be married and have children within a 5 year period. The boy of light almost left but his friend told him even if they were forced apart he would always be his shadow and they would shape this world together. Eventually they boy of light found a woman that he cared deeply for and knew wouldn't use him. They married and the other boy married a friend of theirs it was shaky at first but he grew to love her. Both girls knew the two boys wanted to be together so they actually all lived together for a while and the relationship changed. First the 2 girls found comfort in each other when the two boys were together and then it slowly changed all of them being on a relationship with each other. They only moved when the girls got pregnant for they had to provide the children a steady home. They all still love each other and the boys are only truly themselves when together for they don't want the council to rip them apart specially now that they have children. So Boruto do you understand this story?"
Boruto had tears in his eyes as he processed the information it was so much. He looked at Kakashi wearily and asked if there was anything else he didn't know. Kakashi let out a big sigh and looked at Boruto carefully. "You and Sarada have an older brother. That sexy jutsu you and your dad have doesn't just make you look like a woman. He is in a house outside Konoha waiting for Sasuke to travel again during these two weeks Naruto and Sasuke will probably spend all their time over there. The boy is not allowed here or the council would try to weaponize him for he carries Kurama's kit within him and the sharingan. If you want to meet him I suggest you got towards the end of next week he will be with me there for 4 days." Boruto nodded and headed straight to the Hyugaa compound just waving at Himawari and grandfather on his way to his room. Only on thing in his head Should I go meet him or would he even want to meet me?
