I don't own Naruto or any of its characters but I do own the plot and the OCs.
One Shot 7
Death
Iruka smiled nervously at the woman dragging him on a date. Anko was grinning ear to ear, as she finally landed a date with the cute chuunin, after waiting Iruka was going to take her dinner, but she insisted that they go get dango then to a bar. So, after spending an hour in the dango shop and Anko eating about half of the store. Iruka's wallet felt considerably lighter, just like when he would take Naruto out to get ramen. It's scary to think that Naruto is so much like Anko, although he would admit that the latter was scarier.
"So, Iruka let's see if you can drink me under the table," asked Anko.
"Wha," asked Iruka snapping out of his thoughts. Iruka didn't even drink that much. By the end of the night he was going to be wasted he just knew it by looking at Anko. Iruka sighs, the things he does.
The following morning, Iruka had a huge hangover and was greeted by the sight of Anko standing over his bed.
"Looks like you can hold your liquor very well," teased Anko. "Oh well. Feel pretty bad don't cha? Well, let's get some tea after–" she was cut off by Iruka running to his bathroom throwing up. "You puck your guts out."
"Next time I'm picking where we are going for our date," commented Iruka.
"So that means there is a next time," grinned Anko.
"Yeah." Anko could tell by his voice he was blushing.
"You are so cute."
"So are you."
"Why thank you. Now why don't you come out here and I'll make you that tea," said Anko.
"I'm coming," said Iruka. Anko smiled lightly. He was sure cute.
It was late and Iruka was tired. He should be in bed, but Anko had came bursting in his apartment drunk and hysterical. It was times like these that he wished she didn't drink. She was complaining about her old sensei again. She tended to do that a lot.
"Kami, I just want him dead," said Anko.
"I know," said Iruka. He decided a while ago that he should just agree with whatever she said as not to anger her in this state more than she already was.
"But you know I wanted to die with him but not no more no," said Anko.
"That's good," said Iruka, he knew all of this already.
"Cause I got people who care about me like Kurenai, Asuma, that perverted silver haired bastard, others and You."
"Of course we care about you."
"Do you love me?"
"Uh...yes." It wasn't a lie but truth. He did love the snake woman. They are complete opposites but that is what he loves.
"Good cause I love Iruka-kun too," said Anko, she was going to kiss him but passed out. Iruka sighed and picked her up to go put her in his bed. Guess he'll have to sleep on the couch again.
Anko stared at the name on the stone before her. Next to her was Naruto looking at that name plus two others. Anko didn't know what to say to the boy, and likewise for him. She couldn't cry not anymore. She was leaving the country to go and technically babysit Jiraiya and her sensei Orochimaru as they were leaving to go live with Hiroko and her family, who in a while will be moving to Konoha.
"Anko," said Naruto. "I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault."
"It's not yours either."
"I really love him."
"I know you do," said Naruto, "But you have to move on for his sake, just like the rest of us. Plus, you are not going to be alone in this."
"Thank you, brat," said Anko, placing a hand on his head. To her surprise he moved and hugged her.
"Good luck in with dealing with those two old men," teased Naruto.
"Ah, thanks," said Anko. "One gay one and one perverted one, great for me."
"Hah," said Naruto. "Just make sure that Jiraiya doesn't peep on too many women."
"Yeah, Orochimaru will help me. Well kid I gotta go," said Anko.
"Visit," said Naruto.
"I will," said Anko, leaving to head to the gate to meet with Jiraiya and Orochimaru to leave. Anko sighed this was going to be a lot of work.
