CHAPTER FIVE

Namikaze Household

Naruto

Naruto woke up in the early in the morning. The sun had just risen and the sky is clear. Naruto, excited to go see his best friend got up to get ready three hours early. Ever since he could remember he loved being around the raven. He couldn't explain why but he just did.

Naruto hadn't seem Sasuke since three days ago. You see Natsume and Naruto got in an argument and his parents decided to ground Naruto only saying that he was older and should have known better. He was only older by a few minutes but they decided it didn't matter. Anyways he's never been apart from Sasuke that long and he didn't want to be either. They were always together. Even on his birthdays. In fact Natsume and his birthday was coming up in two days. Naruto started to remember his last birthday, he was turning four years old. Instead of spending it with his family, he spent it with the Uchiha's. They became his family.

Family. Naruto thought. Maybe they won't forget me this time. Maybe I don't try hard enough for them to notice. Is it my fault? Naruto thoughts of his family hovered over him.

Shaking his thoughts he didn't want to be depressed when he goes to meet Sasuke. He goes into the bathroom to brush his teeth and take a shower. Afterwards he made and ate breakfast.

Now your probably wondering how a four almost five-year old knows how to cook, right? Well he helps Miko-nee (Sasuke's mom) in the kitchen. She always says his food comes out better than hers but he has a funny feeling that she's just being nice. But he wasn't sure.

Knowing that he would still be be two hours early he decided to go take a walk around the village. He knew he shouldn't go the outer markets because of what they thought about him. He didn't know why they didn't like him, just that they didn't.

Instead Naruto would usually go to the park or in the woods. Sometime he would go alone when he didn't couldn't see Sasuke or any of his family members. He liked being in the woods, it made him feel better. Especially, since he was growing a garden. But he never told anyone expect Sasuke. It was their secret.

Oh no I haven't watered them in three days! What if there dead? Naruto thought as he rushed to his little hide out.

Uchiha Compound

Itachi

Sasuke hasn't been the same for the past three days. Sasuke had been pouting and getting slightly depressed without Naruto. He has never been away from him that long. The two of them are inseparable since the day they met, four-five years ago. Granted it took Sasuke a little longer to get to warm up the little sunshine but he did. Itachi tried to cheer him up by getting him to come train with him. Th suggestion worked for about a minute when he remembered Naruto couldn't come with them.

After that he promised to see why Naruto couldn't come and play with him though he knew that something must have happened. Itachi couldn't stand to see his little otouto sad. He promised he would be the best Aniki to Sasuke. But soon he started to make the same promise to Naruto. Naruto was the unofficial Uchiha family member.

Anyways Itachi found out the reason for Naruto not showing up. Naruto was grounded and would be coming back in a few days. Until then Sasuke would be without him and he, himself would have to go without Naruto's antics.

"ITACHI-NII!" A high-pitched voice called out. It's Sasuke, his little brother. From what Itachi could see that he's in a Bright mood.

He must be excited to see Naruto again. Itachi thought to himself. Sasuke is usually a heavy sleeper and won't wake up until you force it.

"Itachi, Naruto's Birthday is coming and I don't have a birthday present!" Sasuke exclaimed. Itachi figured that he didn't have any present and wanted him to help him.

"Its alright, well go to the market place later and you could choose a present for him there. Okay." Itachi said, cheering up Sasuke.

"Ok! Aniki." Sasuke said with an enthusiastic voice, then left to dod who knows what.

Villagers. Itachi thought.

The entire village knew what happened with the Kyuubi but most couldn't believe that the fox had up and left. But when they saw Naruto and the six scars on his cheeks they immediately thought Kyuubi had reincarnated but took the form of Minato's youngest son, Naruto. They believe that the 'real' Naruto was killed by the fox. How they came up with the conclusion no one would know.

Idiots, all of them! Naruto was already born when Kyuubi disappeared. Itachi sighed.

"I'm back!" Itachi looked to the side of him. Sasuke. "Now we can go!" Sasuke ran outside.

He meant now? Guess there's no choice but to follow him. Itachi sighed once again, following his little brother.

Later that day

Naruto P.O.V.

As Naruto was heading torwards his second home it hit him. No nothing physical but Sasuke didn't know. He was grounded and no one know about it.

What if Sasuke thinks that I don't want to be his friends anymore. I haven't seen him a really long time! These thoughts plagued the small he ran to the Uchiha Compound to apologize to his best friend- or was it ex-best friend.

Shaking his head he reached the house and with a yelled shout he squealed "SASUKE!"

"Naruto!" A reply was quick as the raven headed towards the blond.

"I'm sorry Sasuke. I wanted to see you but-" Naruto eyes were filled with tears that started to fall.

"Why are you crying?"

"Because you don't want to be my friend anymore!" Naruto was full out stood there clutching the edge of his shirt with his eyes squeezed tight.

"Why would I want to be friends with you? You're my best friend!" Naruto's tears muffled down to sniffles.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Forever?"

"Best friends!" Sasuke said with a smile.

"Good." Naruto said serious with a pout.

What they didn't know was in the other room was Mikoto squealing about BL. Itachi just found out about his mothers secret obsession while Fugaku's just shaking his head.

My new Poll is up for who should be team 7's sensei. Using the Reviews as votes DO COUNT.
