Chapter 5: The Effect of First Girlfriend
Jackie have been listening to Naruto as he told her about his weekend at lunchtime, the school have resumed on Tuesday, due to school holiday. "You and Reg are together now?" Jackie raised her eyebrow at her best friend, 'Just after one week?'
"Yeah." Naruto grinned, "We are going out on third one on Friday night. I'm thinking of mini-golf or buy her a dinner."
"This Friday?" The blonde skater looked up from her lunch, "So that mean no game night?" They usually hang out and play some video games all day or have a board game with his family.
"Oh, shit!" The blonde boy smacked his forehead before he give her a guilty expression, "Sorry, I forget about it. Next week?"
"Cool with me." Jackie shrugged her shoulders, it's just one time and she's pretty sure that he won't forget about it again. "So how does your family take it?"
"Okay…" Naruto scratched his head in deep thought, "But there were a few weird moments…"
"Like what?" She asked.
"Well…" He thinks back.
Naruto slide down the ladder from his room and he turn around to see Lynn exiting the bathroom. "Morning, sis." Naruto grinned at her, "You ready for your ga…" The tomboy just ignores him as she slammed her door loudly and the teenager boy just blink confusingly at her behavior.
"Lynn has been giving me a cold shoulder all day yesterday and even this morning." Naruto muttered, "I don't know what to do but trying to talk to her later after giving her some time to chill off."
"Lynn, mad at you, her favorite?" Jackie tilted her head, "That's first time."
"Yeah, and it's not just her." The blonde boy sighed.
Luna was rocking out with her new lyrics and she stops her song as soon as she hears a voice at her doorway, revealing to be Naruto. "Is that a new song?" Naruto asked with a small smile, "It sound pretty…"
"Don't you ever heard of privacy?!" Luna abruptly slammed the door on him.
"Um, sorry?" The blonde scratched his head nervously.
"While they both seem to be angry about something, some of the girls seem to be acting a little different after that." Naruto think about his sisters' behavior, Lincoln was the only one who doesn't even change after knowing about his new girlfriend and his little brother have been asking him about her because, in his word, she's so awesome.
"Maybe your sisters have some fight again." Jackie suggested and her best friend paled at the suggestion.
"If that's the case, then can I…?" He asked her nervously.
"Sure, you can crash at my place anytime." The skater laughed.
"Hey, guys." Reggie joined them.
"Hey, Reg." Naruto pecked her cheek and she returns it on his cheek.
"What were you talking about?" The tanned skater asked curiously, starting to eat her lunch.
"Oh, I was telling her about my weekend and how we get together." He answered before he whispers to her, "Minus, the part about my family walking…"
"Don't remind me." Reggie blushed at the memory and they kept chatting throughout the lunchtime.
Lynn immediately go straight to her room as soon as she come home, ignoring her big brother's greeting once again, and she slam the door closed before throwing herself on her bed, burying her face into her pillow with a muffled groan. She feel so angry and frustrated and it wasn't direct toward Naruto but toward herself. Her grips on the pillow tightened as she tried to fight back her tears as she think back to the day that her family accidently walks onto Naruto's makeout with t-t-that girl! His first girlfriend! It's not fair to her, not fair at all!
Since she was little, she always look up to Naruto because he was her big brother who played a lot of sports and teach her few tricks from the first moment she want to join little league baseball. He always keep his promise to her by coming to every games she played and encourage her when she got upset after losing a game. They did a lot of things together like a typical brother and tomboyish sister.
That all change when she hit her puberty for the first time and something happened. Her feeling suddenly change and she thought it was very weird for her to have a crush on Naruto so she tried to shove it down and it work for a while…Until it come back at full force when she found out that Naruto is adopted, which make her feel happy since it might be okay to have a crush on him and she was about to act up on it but she don't know what to do…And that cost her. Now her brother have a girlfriend and that really hurt her…She feel bad for ignoring Naruto but she need some space for now…
"Aaargh!" Lynn scream into her pillow muffled.
"I fucking hate my life." Luna muttered under her breath quietly, lying on her bed as her fingers tug onto guitar's strings. She secretly have a huge crush on Naruto for years and she don't give a damn about what people would think about it...Then it turn out that Naruto is not related to her and she have a chance to be with him but the problem is that he only see her as his sister. She was going to change that but then this…This bitch just come out of nowhere and get it on with Naruto in their damn living room! Just after one fucking week! It feels like a betrayal to her. She know it's wrong to treat Naruto like that but it'll take some time until she get over it…Just as soon as she figure something out.
"All reruns and nothing news…" Naruto switched through several channels until he leave it on an action movie and he lean back into the couch. He feels a sudden small shift next to him, causing him to glance at his side to see Lucy with a thick book. "Hey, Lucy." He smiled at her.
"Hello, Naruto." Lucy opened her book and her brother take a quick glance at the book cover before he groan mentally at the title, it was Twilight.
'Whoever wrote this book really have a lot of issues.' The blonde teenager shivered mentally, he was forced to watch this movie by his sisters and he was glad that it was just a fad…Until his little sister get into it. 'This thing just ruined vampires and werewolf for a while…' Naruto thought to himself but he won't say it out loud. "Say…" He cleared his throat, "What part in this story do you enjoy?"
"Everything." Lucy looked up from her book, "Vampire, the idea of having a forbidden relationship with someone older, and be with your soulmate forever."
"Um, I see…" Naruto scratched his head, he think that she's too young to think about relationship and the fact that she might be attracted to an older person.
"Does the idea of being in forbidden and taboo relationship exciting you?" The goth girl asked.
"Huh?" He looked down with a blink, "Oh, with vampire? Um…I don't know. I mean, I'm with Reg and…Um…" He just went with a shrug.
"Mmm." Lucy just turned back to her book and Naruto just stare at her for a bit with puzzled expression before he decides to watch the movie again.
"Naruto." The said boy turned away from the TV to see Lori, "I heard from Jackie that you're gonna have date on Friday, do you want to double-date with me and Bobby?"
"Well…" Naruto scratched his cheek lightly before he text with his phone, "I'll ask Reg to see if she's cool with it. I'll let you know as soon as she answers back." He glanced to his older sister, "I gotta ask, why do you want to double-date so badly?"
"Hello?" Lori rolled her eyes with a light scoff, "We're both couple and it's logical to have couple friends instead of single couple so we don't have to deal with awkward stuff with them. You have a lot thing to learn about dating life."
"Ooookay…" The blonde boy drawled out with a shaking head, "I'm pretty sure it's gonna be so awkward with you two…"
"What was that?" The older sister corked her eyebrow at him.
"Nothing, I was saying that it's gonna be so awesome with you two." Naruto quickly cover it up with a grin and his sister just stare at him for few moments before she walk away with a light shrug. "Yeeeah, awesome…" He rubbed his face with his hands with a small groan, he's sure that he and his girlfriend will feel a little awkward when Bobby and Lori will start to have a baby-talking with each other.
Two days later, Lincoln nervously peeks into his house with a wad of gum in his hair as he scans for any signs of his sisters and brother before he tiptoeing toward the kitchen. "The National Weather Service reports clear skies with only a twenty percent chance of meddling sisters and brother." Lincoln muttered to himself, "But we advise keeping your umbrella handy." He immediately spot his baby sister as Lily playing with her toys on floor before she notice him with a wide opening grin, "Shh!"
"Shh!" Lily copied his act with a giggle and Lincoln quietly sneak into the kitchen.
"Hold it right there!" Lori's voice shouted as the young boy spin around with widened eyes before he release his breath as soon as he saw her talking on her phone, "He wore cargo shorts on your date?! That is literally the worst thing I have ever heard! No, sorry, Naruto have a girlfriend now and we're having double date on Friday."
"Phew…" Lincoln sighed out before he open the refrigerator, "Peanut butter, peanut butter…" He suddenly hear Luna's hum and he quickly pull the drawer out, hiding half of his face inside as his rocker sister walk in.
"Hey, bro." Luna glanced at her little brother.
"Oh, hey, Luna." The white-haired boy clicked his tongue as he shot his finger at her, "What's the haps?"
"Rad way to chill out, bro." The rocker looked over him, "Mind hooking me up with some pudding?" Her little brother reach inside the refrigerator with few empty grab as he cry out in digust as soon as he touch broccoli before he manage to find the pudding, hand it over to her and she leave the kitchen. "Thank. Stay cool."
Lincoln quickly digs around in the refrigerator until he finally find the jar, "Peanut butter!" He opened it up to see it was empty, "UGH! WHY DO PEOPLE PUT EMPTY JARS BACK IN FRIDGE?!" He shoves it back inside, "I need a plan B!"
"Socks and sandals?!" Lori walked by him with a disgusted groan, "Cut it out!"
"Cut it out…" Lincoln's eyes lit up, "That's it!" He quickly sneak past his older sister and he manage to avoid Naruto as he walk into the kitchen, focusing on a game on his smartphone.
"Dammit, I hate this game." Naruto muttered quietly as he tap it like madman, "Why did I download Flappy bird in first place?!" Game over title popped up in his face as the bird died, "That's it, I'm uninstalling it!" He deleted the app before he grab a water bottle and he head back to his room as Lisa walk past him. The blonde teenager sit down at his desk as he start doing his homework for a while until he hear some shouting.
"You're being picked on!" Lynn's voice shouted and Naruto suddenly stop writing answers down before he calmly walk toward the attic door, sliding down the ladder as group of his sisters mobbing Lincoln over a piece of gum in his hair.
"…Who is picking on who?" Naruto asked blankly and his siblings frozen up at his voice before they all turn to him.
"N-No one!" Lori laughed nervously, "No one! Lynn just misunderstood something!" She quickly elbowed her tomboyish sister, "Right? Right?!" Lynn just mutely nod, not meeting his eyes.
"...Then how does Lincoln get a gum in his hair?" The blonde boy's eyes shifted to Lincoln.
"U-Um, I put it there for fashion?" Lincoln said lamely before he turn to the wall with a whisper, "Out of us all, Naruto is extreme overprotective and he tend to go a little far with it…Way too far…"
"Someone's picking on you?" Naruto looked down to Lana as she cried her eyes out with few scrapes all over her knees, "Who?!"
"R-R-Rob from my class…" Lana sniffled as her older brother quietly gets something out of the food closet, "…W-W-What are you doing with corncob?"
"Just a little prank…" He answered with a dark chuckle, "Just a little prank."
"Alex made fun of you about your dress?" Naruto stared at Leni, "And she's bullying you for a while?" He grab a corncob out of nowhere, "I'll have some talk with her…"
"Who's he and why is he in your room?" Naruto narrowed his eyes at man in purple biker outfit as Luna looked between them.
"Hi, I'm Chunk." Chunk said, "You must be Naruto. Luna told me a lot about you, I'm her ro…W-Wait, where did you get this corncob from?"
"They call you a what?" Naruto looked up from Lynn to a group of kids, "…Wait here, I'm going over there for a talk."
"Hey, since when did you have this bag of corncob?" Lynn asked him confusingly.
"So whole of your class were teasing you because the way you look?" Naruto asked Lucy as she nodded, "…Take a day off from school tomorrow." He piled up a lot of corncob with a dark mutter and his goth sister just tilt her head puzzlingly.
"Sweet god." Lynn Sr. said from the doorway before he ran away as he hollers out for his wife, "Cut the phone line! Naruto is bringing the corncobs out!"
"I heard that some don't get released from hospital for years!" Lincoln gulped before he turn back to his siblings, "No one is picking on me! And put this thing away!" He pointed at a corncob in Naruto's hand, "Seriously, where did you get this thing from?!"
"You should stand up and fight back!" Lynn shook her fist at Lincoln, "Hold on, I'm gonna get another boy!"
"No! Stop, Lynn!" Lincoln shouted, "IT'S NOT EVEN A BOY!" All of his sisters froze in their track.
"Is it a dog?" Leni asked.
"It's a girl." The white-haired boy sighed.
"Who is sh…" Naruto was about to ask him again but Luan whisper something into his ear, "Oh…No corncob prank?"
"No corncob prank." Luan nodded.
"…" Naruto abruptly laughed out loud, confusing Lincoln, and he climb up the ladder, still laughing his head off.
"Wha…" Lincoln muttered before his sisters suddenly fawn over him with delighted squeals, "W-What? What?!" He later found out that the girl was picking on him because she likes him.
"And then Luan told me that a girl was picking on him because she has a crush on him." Naruto chuckled as he talk to Reggie on phone, "Yeah, it's really cute."
"Naruto." He looked over his shoulder to see Lori.
"What's up?" He covered his phone with a blink.
"Can you go and talk to Lincoln?" Lori asked sheepishly, "We kinda told him to kiss Ronnie and…"
"I think I kinda get the gist." Naruto sighed as his older sister disappear before he speak to his girlfriend, "I gotta go, talk to you later. Bye." He climb down the ladder before he walk up to Lincoln's door, opening it with a light knock. "Hey, Lincoln. Lori just told me about…"
"NARUTO, GET OUT, GET OUT, GET OUT!" Lincoln screamed in shock with red face as he holds a piece of paper and a streak. Naruto immediately saw a phone number on it with XOXO, following by a girl's name on it.
"…Guess your girlfriend already cheer you up before I get any chance." Naruto closed the door with a chuckle.
"DON'T TELL OUR SISTERS ABOUT THAT!" Lincoln screamed again.
Friday has arrived so fast and it was night as Naruto sit down at table in restaurant with Reggie, Bobby and Lori after they watched a rom-com movie. "I'm thinking about ordering cheeseburger with some fries, what about you?" Naruto asked Reggie.
"Same." Reggie smiled after she glance over the menu, "Wanna share fries?"
"Sure." The blonde teenager nodded with a grin.
"Wow, you two are so in harmony." Lori speak up with a smile before she swoon over her boyfriend with a baby-talk, "So much like me and my cute bear."
"No, you're more cute, boo-boo." Bobby talked back with a coo.
"Oh, god…" Naruto shielded himself from them with a menu out of embarrassment, "Please stop with baby-talk…" It fall upon deaf ears as his sister and her boyfriend kept flirting with each other and Reggie lean over to her boyfriend with a whistle.
"You weren't really kidding about that." Reggie whispered as he nodded to her, "It's kinda embarrassing."
"So, Reggie, how did you two met?" Bobby asked her after he receive an elbow from his girlfriend, she don't want to come off as a nosy person so she forced him to ask them questions in her place.
"I crash into him on my first day in town." Reggie smiled at her chuckling boyfriend, "Then he was kind enough to offer me a quick tour at school and town. We kinda end up having our first date by going to a movie, which was about…" She looked to Naruto, "Two weeks ago, right?"
"Yeah, sound pretty right." Naruto nodded.
"So you two having been dating for three weeks now?" The Latino teenager grinned, "Wow, that's almost like half of me and my boo-boo! We have been dating for six weeks."
"Awww, you remember how long it has been!" Lori swoon over him again.
"Boo, you know I always count every minutes of being with you." Bobby cooed to her, taking her hands with his hands.
"And there they goes, off to their pink world." Naruto muttered to himself with a shaking head and Reggie tried to hold her snicker back as she watches the cheesiest sight between Lori and Bobby. It would be like that for the rest of the night and they manage to get some small chats in.
Lucy was reading her book on her bed and a muffled grumble catch her attention as the goth girl look up to her tomboyish sister, who was burying her face in her pillow. She glances at an old alarm clock to check for the time, it'll be about an hour before Clyde come over for Lincoln's first sleepover. Her head turn back to her grumbling sister, "Lynn."
"What?" Lynn lifts her head slightly to face her young sister, her eyes narrow slightly.
"I know you are having hard time accepting it." Lucy said, "Yes, Naruto have a girlfriend now and you have to accept it now because the way you are acting hurt him, even if he don't show it."
"I'm fine!" The tomboy lied, "Why do you think it's bothering me?!"
"Because you like Naruto more than a brother." The goth girl replied flatly and her sister stiffened up at her statement.
"W-W-What the hell are you talking about?!" Lynn stuttered nervously with anxious expression, "H-He's my brother! H-How can I…"
"Lynn, I know you better than anyone else because we share same room for years." Lucy cut her off, "And in this house, I know everything that no one know about." Her sister appears to be perturbed and morbid that someone knows her secret now, "You have nothing to worry about because I'm not going to tell anyone. I want to tell you to deal with it and accept that Naruto is seeing Reggie, it's not his fault for falling in love. It is your fault for not telling him how you really feeling about him and for giving him cold shoulder."
"I-I-I-I…" The tomboy stammered nervously before she swallow her spit, "…Don't tell anyone!" Her goth sister just stare at her for a while, "…O-Okay, I-I-I'll try to talk to him when he get home."
"Good." The goth girl turned back to her book, ignoring another plead from her older sister to not tell a soul.
"Your sister and her boyfriend seem to be nice." Reggie said to Naruto as he walks her back to her home, "I have great time with them…Beside having to listen to their baby-talk."
"I'm glad you like them." Naruto smiled, "Lori asked me to set up a double-date for a while because she wants to meet you for first time…" He coughed with a blush, "Official, not, you know…"
"Ah, gotcha." Reggie blushed before she see her house, "So…Thank for walking me home."
"No problem." Naruto gave her a peck on cheek, which she returns it back. "I'll see you later."
"See you later." The skater kissed him on lips before she enter her house with a wave and he wave back then the blonde teenager walk down the sidewalks with a cheerful hum.
"I'm home!" Naruto called out as soon as he step inside the house, Lori have got home early because she have car and she offer him a ride but he turn it down to spend some time with Reggie.
"Welcome home!" Lincoln called out from the living room and the blonde teenager look inside to see his siblings with Clyde, the young boys were in sleeping bag and the black boy appear to be fainted with bloody nose.
"What happened to Clyde?" Naruto asked, remembering that Lincoln was having a sleepover with his best friend tonight.
"Lori." His little brother said.
"Ah." The blonde scratched his head lightly, 'I hope it's a phase because no one can bleed this much.' "Well, tell him I said hey."
"You're not going to watch Lord of Flies with us?" Lincoln asked.
"Nah, I got an early shift tomorrow so I'm gonna turn in." Naruto waved it off as he walked up the stair, "Night." He can hear some good nights from his siblings and he was about to climb up into his room but...
"Wait!" The blonde teenager looked over his shoulder to see Lynn as she ran up into the hall before she stand in front of him and it get pretty quiet so fast, despite some noise from downstairs. After a while, Naruto open his mouth to say something but his tomboyish sister cut him off. "I-I-I'm sorry!" She suddenly hugged him, "For ignoring you for whole week, I'm sorry!"
"It's alright." Naruto hugged her back before he break it as he look at the tomboy, "So…Wanna tell me what it was all about? Did I do something wrong indirectly?" He scratched his head, "I mean, did I forget to go to your game or did I…"
"Y-You did nothing wrong, it's just…" Lynn shook her head as she bit her lip, she can't tell him the truth and she need to come up with some excuses. "I have a mood swing because I was on…!" She nearly facepalm at her outburst.
"…O-Oh…" The blonde teenager started to cough into his fist, "B-By that, do you mean…?"
"Yes, yes!" The tomboy said quickly, "Don't you tell anyone about that, not one damn word!" She gave him a quick hug before she race down the stairs to get away from her brother.
"…" Naruto slowly turn around to his ladder, "I think I need to lie down for a moment…" He just forgets that he was originally going to sleep.
Few hours later, Naruto get up at midnight to use the bathroom and he was about to head back to his room but he hear a voice calling out for him. 'Again? I swear that the hallway is hot spot for everything.' Naruto thought tiredly as he looks around groggily until he spot Luna. "Oh…Hey?" He raised his hand, he has tried to ask her what was wrong few times but she refused to speak to him like Lynn.
"Hey." Luna muttered, not meeting his eyes and there was a long silence between them until she speak again. "Sorry." She was about to walk into her room before she look back over her shoulders, "Um, wanna come with me for a gig tomorrow after your work?"
"Um, sure." Naruto nodded as the rocker closed the door after she give him a nod and he walk back into his room. 'I wonder why she was mad?' He know he didn't do anything wrong before he suddenly halt in middle of his room, 'What if she have mood swing like Lynn?' "…Nah, it can't be…" Naruto rubbed his chin in deep thought before he shrug his shoulders, decide to go back to sleep since it's too late and he's tired. He passes out as soon as he hit his bed with a snore.
And that end the fifth chapter of NL! Love it? Hate it?
It seems that few things have changed as Naruto got his first girlfriend and his family found out. Most of them accept it while very few don't. We found out a bit about Naruto like how overprotective he can be if someone else are picking on his siblings and make them pay with Corncob prank! While everything went down in just one week, we also found out few secrets from a couple certain sisters!
I guess we don't have any questions to ask but there is only one question…What will happen next? Let's find out in next chapter!
Reminder: From now on, if there are any update spams, I have to stop writing to delete them so don't ask me about update and it kinda have a weird effect on me to procrastinate a little for some reason.
Anyway, I think that's all I can say for now. Thank you for reading it.
