Okay, someone said it would be cool if Naruto took his family to somewhere (I'm not saying yet) so here I am. I had this chapter all written out, and it was stuff that happened near the end, but someone made that request, and I did ask for ideas. So I rewrote it, thank you for reading!

Naruto awoke with jabbing pains in his abdomen. It was still night, so he didn't bother waking Hinata up to help him take a pain pill.

It's a lot worse...

Crawling over to his duffle bag, he rummaged around it for his pain pills. They weren't in there. He glanced around and saw Hinata's.

Maybe they are in there.

He crawled over to her duffle bag and opened it. The pills were right on top. Taking the bottle, his hands shaking, he took off the lid. Popping one in his mouth, he paused.

Maybe two.

After he had taken his two pills, he snatched his water canister and took a drink. Washing them down, he waited for relief. Thankfully for him, the pain pills were quick acting, so it didn't take long. But Hinata had noticed his absence and had woken up.

"Naruto?" Hinata groggily glanced around the clearing. She noticed him sitting in a crouched position with his head in his arms. He lifted his head and smiled.

"Good morning. Sorry if I woke you up..."

Hinata frowned and crawled over to him. "Is it the pain? We need to get back to the village, Sakura might have-"

Naruto stopped her by putting two fingers over her mouth. Shaking his head, he hesitantly began.

"It's... gotten worse. But i'll hold over till we get back. I have maybe, one or two more places I'd like to go."

"But, you shouldn't push yourself for us, you've done enough Naruto..." Hinata swallowed back the tears that threatened to fall.

"It's not only for your sake. There are some people I'd like to say goodbye to." Naruto grinned cheerfully. "It's okay Hinata... please don't cry."

Hinata dropped her head and cried softly. She kept wiping her eyes but the tears just kept on coming.

"I was always crying... when I was younger. You helped me stop but now..." Hinata cried harder. Naruto brought her face to his. Softly kissing her forehead he smiled at her.

"Stop... you've been brave, for me these past few days. I don't want to leave knowing you'll be crying all the time." Naruto remained silent for a while, watching Hinata. "I really appreciate you staying strong for our family. I'm not gone yet, so don't cry." Naruto wiped the tears from her eyes.

Hinata stopped crying after a few minutes and went back to bed with Naruto beside her. Naruto snuggled close to Hinata and smiled as she melted into his arms. Thinking about his life, family, and happiness he grinned sleepily.

"I've got it the best.."

(It's pitiful XD but it's supposed to resemble a headband)

The next morning was cheerful and bustling. Naruto woke up before Hinata and decided to make some breakfast. The only thing on the menu was the only thing he could make. Ramen. He took some of the cooking utensils they had brought with them including some fresh water and built a small campfire. Boiling the water in the pot he set out four instant ramen cups. Himawari was the first one up besides him, and happily awaited their weird breakfast menu.

Boruto woke up second, and wasn't too happy about the meal.

"Seriously? If I knew we'd have ramen for breakfast, I would've vouched for burgers!" Boruto folded his arms and scowled. Himawari tugged on his sleeves.

"But I like it big brother. Why don't you?" Himawari smiled sweetly, instantly making Boruto eat his words.

"I do it's just... never mind Hima." Boruto scolded himself mentally for having a soft spot. Sitting down, he glared at his dad who was grinning goofily.

"What are you looking at?" Boruto asked scowling.

Naruto smiled. "Just my children! You guys are adorable."

Boruto blushed lightly. "No! I'm not adorable!" Covering his face in his hands he hid himself. Curse you! I'm not adorable!

Naruto chuckled and focused on the boiling water. Hinata woke up later, and sat staring at her family. Hima was chatting with Boruto, who looked like he didn't care but was paying attention to be nice. Naruto was struggling to pick up a pot with a potholder, and cursing when hot water splashed on him.

"Naruto..." Hinata smiled as she stood up and walked over to him. "What are you doing?"

Naruto grinned sheepishly, holding up the hand that got burnt. "I'm making breakfast. Ramen! I have lots so I hope your hungry." Noticing Hinata looking at his hand he smiled. "Don't worry about the burns. I'm already all healed up see?" Holding up his hands to show her, she nodded and went to go see what Boruto and Hima were doing.

Naruto watched her retreating back and smiled softly. He finished pouring the water in the cups and waited for them to cook. Handing each of his family members a cup they all gave thanks and started eating.

"Thank you for the food!" They all said in chorus.

After breakfast, the family began packing up. None of the kids, or Hinata knew where they were going next, but Hima was excited for anything.

"Will there be lots of cool things? How are we getting there? Are we gonna ride that cool balloon-thingy again?"

Naruto answered each of her questions with yes. Taking his whole family, he decided against making clones to carry Hima and Hinata and instead went the long route.

"It's more scenic!" He smiled nervously. "It's longer but there will be more of the statues to see, and maybe we can even go into a secret cave underneath the mountain."

Hima clapped her hands happily. "Yay! Did you hear that Boruto? There is a secret cave!"

Boruto nodded and continued staring at the scenery. Walking down was quite rough, for some reason Naruto wasn't making clones to help his wife, or his daughter.

Hinata frowned as she noticed Naruto was breathing hard with every step. Softly telling Hima and Boruto to wait behind them she approached Naruto and put her hand on his shoulder.

"What's wrong?"

Naruto turned to face her. "Nothing, why?"

Hinata shook her head. "I can tell when your lying. Now tell me, what's wrong?"

Naruto sighed. "Fine... we will only go to one more place after this. After that, we need to go to the village. It hurts whenever I use chakra, and since you use chakra when you move, it's constantly hurting. But I want to go to this one place okay?"

Hinata nodded hesitantly. "Are you saying it's gotten worse as of last night, or this morning?"

Naruto nodded grimly. "This morning. But, it's okay. I can handle it. I am Naruto, the hero of the hidden leaf ya know! And son of the Fourth Hokage! I've been through worse." Smiling, he gave Hinata a thumbs up.

Hinata went back to the children, and noticed their curious looks about their exchange. Shaking her head to silence them, she picked up her bags and continued the long trek down.

NNNNAAAARRRRUUUUTTTTOOOO

Ignore that thing, it's supposed to be a time skip. Also ignore that creepy thing I dared to call a headband. So here is the eight chapter. I wasn't really happy with it, so I kept rewriting it, but I thought it was about time I updated so I settled with this one. Originally, this chapter was supposed to be one of the last chapters, but since on someone suggested a vacation place, I'm adding it. Although I won't add any more, so please don't suggest any.

Thanks for reading! Hope you liked it, and I'd love to hear your feedback, so please comment.
