YEARS

chapter two

He had finished the dishes quickly and was now looking around some more in the apartment. Naruto had pictures everywhere. Picture of him and most of the others, him and a pregnant Sakura, pictures from weddings; Kiba and Hinata, Shikamaru and Temari, Neji and Gaara and from the look of it Naruto had been best man in all three. There were baby pictures of Lyrica and a boy either alone, together with either Sakura or Naruto, and in some they were with other children. He took one of those up.

"That was on her fifth birthday," Naruto said from behind him, drying his hair with a towel. "And those kids on her right are Inami, Kiba and Hinatas oldest, Yumi, there youngest. Then there is Komo, Kana and Sano that's Temari and Shikamarus twins and oldest son. Minami, that's Ino and Sais kid." With each name he pointed at the boys or girls in the picture.

"Who's that?" Sasuke asked and pointed at the boy from the other pictures, an older boy with dark hair and tanned skin.

"That's-"

"Dad!" Someone slammed the door opened and rushed inside. "Is it true? That he is ba-" A young man, almost as tall as Sasuke stopped in his steps and stared at Sasuke, ebony eyes meeting blue eyes.

"Kyo, please calm down."

"Dad…?"

"Well I guess this was bound to happen." Naruto said walking over to his son. "Kyo, this is Sasuke. Sasuke this is my son, Kyo."

"You knew he was coming, and you didn't bother to tell me?"

"Kyo-"

"I hate you!" Kyo rushed out once more and slammed the door shut.

"If he's your son, who's his mother?" Sasuke asked.

"I thought I would have more time to try and explain this." Naruto said to himself. "Um Sasuke I think you should sit down."

"Naruto, why should I sit down?"

"Just sit would you?"

"Naruto?!" This time it was Sakura entering the apartment. "I saw Kyo rush out of here, what's going on?"

"Don't people know how to knock in this town?" Naruto scowled. "Someone and I am just guessing here, Lyrica, told him who had returned and he came to tell me that he hates me."

"Oh."

"Can someone tell me what the hell is going on?!" Sasuke demanded.

"You haven't told him yet?" Sakura asked.

"That really is the first thing I wanted to tell him…"

"Naruto you have to tell him! He's apart of this to."

"Thank you for reminding me of something I already knew. And I was trying to tell him when i someone /i decided to barge in."

"Um, gomen ne."

"Why don't you take a seat to, since you're here." Sakura sat down in the sofa, next to Sasuke.

"What the hells going on?"

"Well um, you know what happened between us," Sasuke looked questioning at him. "18 years ago." Sasuke's eyes widen.

"That really was you?"

"What you thought it was a dream or something?"

"Hn."

"Oh my, you never thought it really happened!"

"You were gone when I woke up and…"

"And what, dreaming about that was something you did regularly?" Sakura rose from her seat.

"I think you two needs to talk this out, without me." With that she left the apartment.

"Is that why you didn't return that day? Because you thought it all was a dream?"

"What happened that night, it was too good to be true. And when I woke up you weren't there. So I just…"

"Sasuke, Kyuubi decided it was time for me to have a kid…" They looked at each other. "I never thought anything like this could happen, I mean things like that are suppose to happen."
"When did you find out?"

"After three months, when Sakura pointed out I was acting like pregnant women. I asked Kyuubi about it. And Kyuubi told me that I was pregnant, with a boy."

"Kyo?"

"Yea…"

"Why…"
"Why you didn't know? I tried finding you, I tried bringing you back."

"You never said anything about him!"

"What would you have done? Just accept it and gone with me?"

"Of course I would!" Naruto looked sceptical at him.

"You would?"

"…"

"No you wouldn't."

"Fine. But you still should have told me."

"For some reason I thought you would be screaming and roaming all over the place by now."

"Gomen ne for getting surprised and shocked?!"

"Now I just need Kyo to calm down, and have a serious talk with Lyrica…"

"So he's my son, our son?"

"Yea he is…"

"You decided to come back now?" Naruto asked when Kyo got back. "Do you want some tea too?"

"Hn." Naruto was standing in the kitchen making tea, Sasuke was sitting in the sofa looking at pictures. Kyo walked over and sat in the sofa, as far away from Sasuke as he could but still in the sofa.

"I guess we need to talk." Naruto said, placing a cup of tea in front of them both. "Kyo, me and Sasuke talked about this when you rushed away from here. And I know this is hard to get by, but we are you parents. And we just have to live with that fact."

"Why did you come back?" Kyo asked.

"I don't want to talk about that." Sasuke said and put away the album he'd been holding.

"You expect me to just except you in to this family, just because you came back?"

"No."

"Then what do you want? I've been happy with just dad my entire life, why would I need you?"

"It's not about you needing me, I've been held out of your life-"

"Held out? Dad tried getting you back, though I can't see why he would want someone like you back. If I were him I would have-"

"Kyo, please." Naruto said.

"Naruto, could I talk to Kyo alone for a bit?" Naruto nodded and walked into his bedroom. "I you were him, you what? Would have killed me? Left me for dead?"

"Something like that yes. Dad never said bad things about you, he always said you would come back, he said that he loved you. I can't see why. You almost killed him; you hurt him in every possible way. And still he says he loves you. What so special about you?"

"He never said anything bad? He still loved me after all that?"

"Some nights I could watch him cry himself to sleep holding the picture of you. And every time he did, the hate I felt for you only grew. And the thing I really wanted to do when I was going to see you for the first time was to kill you. But that would only hurt dad even more. And I can't bare seeing him like that again. I can't understand the feelings he holds for you. When I was old enough he told me that you were my i dad /i . That you were a wonderful person, who just… He talked like those abused housewives that tell those stupid lies 'he didn't mean to' 'I fell from the stares'. I will never accept you as a part of this family, I don't care what that does, but I don't. Just because he doesn't know better, doesn't mean I don't." With that Kyo walked to his own bedroom.
