Part 25!

Been trying to write this since I posted part 24.

So here it is. Not much happening really.

Just Rue moving in with Naruto

Wait. What?

Rue moves in with Naruto.

You read that correctly.

So despite the reasonable reason why she shouldn't

She's going to anyway.

Rue gets no choice.

I only own Rue.


Part 25

Rue awoke to excited knocking. Groaning she got out of bed and went to the door. Opening it she looked tiredly and Naruto and Konohamaru

"Yes?" She asked impatiently.

Naruto stared at her head, eyes wide, suppressing laughter.

"Uh Rue? What is that thing on your head?" Konohamaru asked, his face mirroring Naruto's.

Rue looked at them confused as she raised her hand and felt her hair. It felt as if a large majority of her long violet hair rebelled and became a mass of knots.

Rue groaned and dropped her hands.

"Is that why you're here? To make fun of my hair?" She demands.

"No. Of course not!" Konohamaru said shyly.

"That's right, no we didn't! We wanted to show you something. Now get presentable." Naruto told her.

"Presentable? I'm dressed aren't I?" She comments sarcastically.

"Just do it woman. I don't want your sass." Naruto ordered.

Rue rolled her eyes and turned around going into the bathroom.

As she showered, Naruto and Konohamaru came in and sat at the kitchen table, closing the door behind them.

The boys sat quietly, listening to the shower.

Rue eased the knots from her hair and washed her body. After rinsing she shut off the water and wrapped a towel around herself. Then she went to her room and dressed in a white sundress and braided her hair, laying it over her right shoulder.

Leaving her room she went and stood in front of Naruto.

"Presentable enough for you?" Rue asked. Naruto inspected her carefully before nodding.

"It's perfect." He grinned. He and Konohamaru stood. Naruto took a hold of Rue's hand and they lead her outside.

The glass from the shop was cleaned up and the weapons lay neatly on the counter.

"Ta-da!" Konohamaru said

It had been three days since her parents were murdered in the invasion and Rue had stayed in her room since she'd burned some of her parent's things.

"You guys did this?" She asked turning to the boys

"Yea. Well it was Naruto's idea." Konohamaru informed her.

"Wanted you to relax and adjust to this change. Proofed by your hair a while ago, being alone is not agreeing with you." Naruto said and Rue flung her arms around him.

He smiled and returned her hug.

"Oh, and you will be coming to stay with me. I'm not giving you a choice. Your house is depressing so you lose the option to decide." Naruto told her firmly.

Rue just smiled and nodded, tears filling her eyes.

Naruto smiled victoriously as he held her.

Konohamaru watched them quietly

"You guys are weird." He said before leaving to train with Moegi and Udon.

Naruto and Rue stayed like that for a moment. Then they stepped apart, both smiling.

"So I'm living with you now?" She asked raising an eyebrow at him.

"That's right." He nodded.

"Just checking…" Rue said softly.

"Okay, I'll move you're things, you get some air. Walk around. You're too pretty to wallow for the rest of your life." Naruto told her while he turned her around and nudged her away gently.

"Alright." She nodded and walked
