Boruto glared at his dad folding his arms against his chest.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Apparently from Old Lady Koyuki here the Moon trip was a big deal. How the Heck did you go to the moon?"
Naruto glanced at Hinata, both blushing. Naruto turned to Boruto.
"Well you see, it was kinda... Hinata never told you? I never told you?"
Boruto shook his head. "Your never at home so how in the world will you have told me."
Naruto scratched the back of his head and glared at the smirking princess- no, queen..
Seriously... well, I was aiming for telling my kids more about my past.
"We-" Naruto stopped short. The pain pills were wearing off. The agonizing pain as once again ripping his stomach apart. Putting on his best smile he turned to the group.
"Hinata why don't you tell them. I need to use the the restroom."
Hinata widened her eyes after getting the hint. She nodded stiffly. Turning to Boruto she took a deep breath.
"I'm gonna tell you the story."
Naruto felt like puking. The stomach pains were much worse and he felt the weird urge to rid his stomach of its contents.
Rushing to the bathroom he leaned over the side of the toilet and let loose. Watching the contents made the cycle continue. He puked till he felt empty. After ridding itself of the food, his stomach decided to rid itself of the acid.
"Gah..." Naruto winced as the acidic liquid made its way up his throat. Holding it back he leaned on the wall for support. He suppressed the urge to cry but tears squeezed their way out of his eyes. He clutched his burning stomach and wondered what he had done to deserve this.
Ignoring the pain he stood up slowly. Making his way to the sink he searched the cabinets for any type of pain reliever.
"She won't mind... it's an emergency after all."
He didn't find any, and thought about calling for Hinata.
"Nah... I can go to the bags."
Opening the door he peered out at the small crowd of people. He heard Hinata's soft voice and the quiet giggling of Himawari. He didn't hear Boruto, Koyuki or Shikume.
Tip toeing out he ran to the room where Koyuki had placed them. Hurriedly rummaging through the bags he found his prize.
"Aha!" Naruto grinned and took out three pain killers. After swallowing the pills, he looked inside the bottle.
"One more days worth at this rate..."
Silently putting the pills away he went back to the living room. Greeting the listeners with a smile he sat besides his wife. Listening to the soft voice of his wife, he closed his eyes. Hearing the story from her perspective was refreshing, he and her were there so he never felt the need to hear it from her point of view.
"-he self destructed."
Naruto awoke with a jolt. Wait, since when did he fall asleep?
"Huh?" Naruto raised his head and looked at the faces peering at him. "Self destructed? Who?"
Hinata giggled lightly, taking his arm and pulling his tired body towards her. "Toneri silly, I was just about to finish the story. Am I that bad of a story teller that you fall asleep each time?"
Naruto shook his head and leaned back, resting Hinata on his chest.
"No Hime... I was just tired I guess." He felt Hinata nod and grinned at his children.
"Koyuki, what time is it?"
Koyuki grabbed her phone from the bedside table and turned it on.
"Umm... 7:20. Wait, I have to go, I'll be right back." Koyuki stood up and walked out of the room, eyes still glued to the screen.
"Its... almost bedtime. Eh?" Naruto raised his head when he felt an abnormal amount of pressure on his stomach. Hima had decided she wanted to snuggle too.
"No daddy... stay. Your warm." Hima snuggled close and Hinata smiled. Hinata brushed the hair out of her face and kissed her forehead. Snuggling deeper into his body she looked towards Boruto.
"There is still room."
She laughed lightly when Boruto's face morphed into a deep scowl. He stayed that way before sighing and trudging over to them.
"I guess... don't laugh." Boruto sent a glare towards Naruto, who was now buried under three bodies.
"Well, I see I missed out on the snuggle party." Koyuki entered the room, her eyes sparkling with laughter. Shikume was sent to bed earlier, apparently bedtime was very early here.
"You didn't miss much." Boruto murmured sleepily, hugging his sister from behind resting his head on Naruto's chest. His head rose and fell with each breath Naruto made.
Naruto chuckled. "I guess I'm a big pillow now. I- Don't you even think about it."
Naruto sent a glare in Koyuki's direction. Her face just screamed mischief. She was very different from what he had remembered her as. She was no longer cold, or negative. She was happy, I guess marriage life can do that to a person, if it's the right couple.
"Well, I guess will obey your orders Lord Hokage~." Koyuki smirked setting down her phone and curling up her feet on the couch. Relaxing her aching muscles she continued to talk.
"I never thought that the annoying brat that followed me around begging for my autograph spouting Hokage nonsense would actually become Hokage. It's... comforting you know." Koyuki smiled at Naruto.
"Annoying brat? I guess I was a brat back then... I just remembered. Why did you tell Shikume I was a complete idiot? Don't forget it was me and my master plan that fooled your uncle. I beat him believe it!" Naruto comically closed his eyes and frowned.
Koyuki shook her head. "Shikume really looks up to you. He was reading just recently about all the Kages. Your his favorite."
Naruto smiled. "I guess... my efforts in the past war really boosted my reputation. People used to hate me, then after my fight with pain, the villagers started to accepted me. The war was just the final stage, then I was world famous."
"I heard... your famous over here too. I hear adults tell their kids, 'make sure you work hard! Lord Seventh would tell you to never give up!' And other inspirational stuff to get their kids going." Koyuki sighed and rested her head on the back of her hand. "How has life been so far? What you expected?"
Naruto thought for a minute. Life was not what he expected, it wasn't as hard as his childhood, but being a adult had its ups and downs. The ups being his family, his position and his friends. The downs being the 'brains' part of the operation. He never was very smart, but he grew up with the brains needed to be Hokage.
"Nah..." Naruto shook his head.
Koyuki smiled gently. "Well, it's late. I better let you sleep. Would you like help to get your family to their rooms?" She gazed at the sleeping bodies smothering the blonde shinobi.
Naruto shook his head and gave her a weak thumbs up. When I say weak, it's not because he doesn't have the muscles to do it, but the arm room.
Chuckling lightly she gave him a quiet 'good night' and left the room after turning the lights off.
Naruto happily smiled at his sleeping growths.
"I've got three leeches. And I love them."
NNNAAARRRUUUTTTOOO
I just have the most wonderful idea for the end of the book!!! It's was recently an idea that popped into my head and I don't have to change anything of the story to make it fit! It's kinda depressing though...
I have three chapters written and ready to go lol I keep writing but then want to put off the publishing till I can edit them to a pulp as it's embarrassing when I get something entirely wrong.
Please have patience with me, I'm not the best author, nor do I have the best plots, but I'm constantly having ideas and I need to write them down. This is what this fanfic started as, albeit it was inspired by Restuden it won't follow the plot. I already said this but whatever...
