CHAPTER 5

for the next 2 months shino would continue to worry about naruto. finally one night naruto showed signs of getting better. he openned his eyes. "shino... thank you." no sooner had the words left his mouth then he fell back asleep. shino ran to get shizune. a few hours later shizune came out of the room and smiled at shino. "well kyuubi's chakra is beginning to wear off. in fact he should be awake with in the next week or so. after he wakes up we will find out what happened to him and then hopefully we can put this whole mess behind us." by that time the next day everyone seemed to know 3 facts. fact 1 naruto and shino were a couple. fact 2 naruto had been attacked and raped. fact 3 naruto would be waking up in less then a week.

hinata hyuuga slowly made her way to naruto's room. gently she pushed the door open and walked in. shino was already there. he was currently laying next to naruto on the bed running his fingers through his hair. he looked up, as soon as he saw who it was he looked away. "h...hi... hinata" hinata bowed. "hello shino." hinata slowly walked over to naruto and sat down on the edge of his bed. shino turned away. "I'm very sorry hinata. I did not mean to steal naruto away from you, but... I could not stand seeing him so sad. I'm sorry." hinata looked at shino. "shino I always knew you had a crush on naruto. in fact I knew you would win if it came to a direct competition. so I guess what I'm trying to say is... you had better treat him well or I might just have to kick your ass." hinata smiled, and stood up. she patted shino on the shoulder and then left the room.

the next day shino went around to the rookies and told them that naruto would be waking up by the end of the week. after that he went and tell the hokage. by now the sun was setting in the sky and shino made his way back to the hospital. when he entered naruto's room he stopped. naruto's eyes were open he was looking around. he did not seem to be awake but he was looking around. shizune put he hand on shino's shoulder. "he has been like this for about 3 hours. he just looks around. all his vitals show that he is still asleep." shino nodded and put his hand on naruto. no sooner had his hand touched naruto, than naruto stopped looking around. he closed his eye and went back to 'sleep'.

for the next 3 days naruto would continue to 'look' around. occasional;y he would move and even mumble in his 'sleep'. finally after 4 days shizune aproached shino. "It should be anytime now. his brain waves show that he will be awake by tomarro. by next friday he sould beable to leave the hospital and move back in with you. you have clean up your appartment right?" shino nodded. he had cleanned it the day after bring naruto to the hospital. "well then... I have to go look in on my other patents. have a good day shino." as shizune left the room, shino looked back over to naruto. he was fine. that was the only thought that was running through his head. naruto his boyfriendm, his lover was fine.

smiling to himself shino once aganin ran around the village telling everybody about the news. after he finished that he went back to the hosptal, and went to sleep. with naruto curled up against his chest. smiling to himself shino strocked naruto's blonde hair. 'I will never let anything hurt you again.'
