Naruto's Pov:
It's currently 3:00pm and I'm still at Ino's with all these idiots. I have no idea what their even talking about. Wait I think they are arguing about a show. I don't really know or care. "Naruto who do you think is better?!" Asked Hinata. "What are we talking about?" I ask. "Naruto you idiot were you even listening?!" Ino asks. "No because I don't care about what y'all are going in about" I say back. I heard gasps go around the room. "How dare you say that!" Kiba says. "What?" I ask. "You're basically calling our favorite show trash" Shikamaru says. "Oh well" I say shrugging. Gasps could be heard around the room again. "We do not claim you as a friend" Neji says. "When did I ever claim you guys as friends. I only claim Ino and hinata." I state going back to my phone. "Ouch you didn't have to be so rude Naruto" Hinata says. I just shrug. "No baby he doesn't claim them as friends because there his boyfriends duhh" Ino says to hinata. "Fuck off Ino pig I barely even like them. We literally just met them yesterday. I don't even know anything about them like that. When we were supposed to come here to get to know each other everybody got side tracked. I just know their boys who go to our school who girls are always drooling over. Now if you'll excuse me I'm leaving. I have somewhere to be at 5:00. Until then I'm going home to clear my head." I say. Everybody is staring at me like I heart their feelings. "Naruto I was just playing" Ino says almost whispering with her head down. Shit I didn't mean to be so harsh. "I'm sorry Ino I-I give me some time to clear my head". I stuttered as I started gathering my stuff. "Wait naruto we can get to know each other now if that's what you want" Gaara says grabbing my arm. I look at the other boys to see them shaking their head yes. I look back at Gaara. "I'm sorry maybe another time" I say taking my arm out of his grip gently. He looks at me with a hint of sad in his eyes but just nods. I turn around and walk out the door. I for real didn't mean for that to happen. It just came out. Stupid mouth I was actually starting to take a liking to the 7 of them. What am I going to do now? I guess I could always go home. I know. I just realized that me and Ino live a little far apart from each other. I guess I could call a Uber to take me home. Yeah I'll just do that. I just called for an Uber ride and it should be coming soon. I walked a few blocks away from Ino's house before I called the Uber of course. Oh it's here. I quietly get into the backseat of the car. I look in the mirror to see a kid that actually looks around my age. Can kids around my age get this job. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the guy speak. "Where the hell is this person?!" He honks the horn. "U-um sir I'm right here" I say. I just look at him waiting for his reaction. He almost jumped out of his seat with his seat belt on. "Shit I'm sorry you scared. How long have you been here?" He says and asks. "Ever since you've pulled up" I state. "O-oh I'm sorry I didn't see or hear you get in the car" he says. "It's fine" I say looking out the window as he starts to drive. "So... what's you're name?" The driver asks I turn my head to look at him. "Why May you ask? What's it to you?" I ask. "I just wanted to make small talk I'm sorry if I made you upset" he says. "Oh okay I apologize for being rude I'm just not feeling so great right now. My name is Naruto." I say. "Well Naruto my name is Utakata and it's a pleasure to meet you"he says to me. "Same goes to you. May I ask how old you are? Just curious because you look around my age" I say. "Oh I'm 17 I know what you're probably thinking a 17 year old working a Uber job. But I don't know how it happened either. I was just looking for a job and my dad got me this one. But hey no complaints here. As long as I get good ratings I get good money". He says as he shrugs. So I was right he is around my age. "How old are you Naruto?" He asks. "16" I say. "Cool so we are around the same age! And might I add on to that you're quite the cute one aren't you?" He says. I blush at what he called me. I don't really know how to reply to that. "I- um t-thank you?" I stutter out. I can hear him chuckle lightly. What is it with people calling me cute nowadays? "May I have you're number so we can meet up again?" He asks. Should I give him my number? I mean I've been making a lot of friends lately. Fuck it. "Sure let me see you're phone" I say as he hands me his phone with a small smile on his face. I type it in his phone and give it back to him. That's when I realized we were already at my house. How the fuck we get here so fast did we teleport? I shrug it off and grab my belongings out of the car. "Bye Utakata" I say. "See you later Naru" he says with a smile as he pulls off. We just met and he already gave me a nickname. Just what is it with these teenage boys? And forget some of their horniness. And why is it me it's suddenly happening to? This is what I'm confused on. I get out my keys and unlock my door. I take a step in and go to my room. I put all the stuff I have away. Let's see what time it is. 4:30?! And I'm walking there I better get to moving. I put my shoes back on and grab my phone and keys. I go outside turn around and lock my door. I just realized how nice it feels today. Warm with a little bit of wind. As I was walking down the sidewalk. I get a call from a unknown number. Who could this be. I pick up my phone and answer it. "Hello?" I say. "Hey Naruto are you okay?" Oh I know this voice. "Neji?" I ask. "Yeah it's me". "Yeah I'm okay I guess. How did you get my number?" I ask. "Oh hinata gave it to all of us before we left Ino's house" he says. "Oh" I say as I seen something small moving in the distance. I squint my eyes to see what it is. Is that a child? Oh my god it is! I start running towards the kid. "Naruto?" Neji says on the other side of the phone. "Hold on Neji" I say. I hear him say okay. As I get closer I can see the child clearly crying. I run even faster now I'm finally in front of the child. "Hey hey kid are you okay? Where's your parents?" I ask. Oh it's a boy. He has green eyes with black hair. He looks to be around 3 or 4. He looks looks up at me as I bend down to his height. "I-I don't have *hiccup* a-any parents" he says while sniffling. "Um Naruto who are you taking to?" Neji says in the other side of the phone. "Some kid That I found and he's crying" I say. "Oh where are his parents?" He asks. "Neji if you heard me ask where are his parents what makes you think I know. Plus he said he doesn't have any" I say looking back at the child trying to stop crying. "You know what I'll call you later bye" I say. Before he could reply I hung up. "You don't have parents what do you mean?" I ask. "I-I think they w-were *hiccup* killed" the kids says. Killed?! He's probably just mistaken it right? If he didn't then he's a smart kid. "H-hey kid what do you mean killed? What did you see?" I ask obviously concerned and worried. "S-somebody barges *hiccup* in m-my house while I w-was in the l-living *hiccup* room watching tv. T-then my p-parents rushed to t-the f- *hiccup* front door. A-and I h-heard s-screams from m-my *hiccup* parents. A-and when I-I went t-to go check. I-I seen somebody I-in a mask leave. A-and when I-I looked down. My *hiccup* parents were l-laying in b-blood not moving *hiccup*". The child managed to get out. What?! No child should have to see that or go through it. I feel bad. "Um how did you end up here?" I asked. His hiccuping finally calmed down. "The door was left open and I heard sirens so I ran and ended up here" he says. "What's your name kid?" I ask. "M-my name is Haruki" he says. "That's a nice name you've got mine is Naruto" I say. "How old are you?" I ask another question. "I-I'm this many" he says as he holds up 3 fingers. "Oh so you're 3?" I ask. He nods. "Well you seem pretty smart for your age. Do you have any other family?" I say and ask. He shakes his head no. "My mommy said they all passed away" he says. I look at the kid and frown. So he has no other family and his parents just died? That's just wow. Should I take care of him for the time being? I mean it couldn't hurt right? It should be that bad. "Hey I'm going to call you Haru for short okay?" He nods. "Are you hungry?" I ask. He shakes his head up and down rather fast. I chuckle. "Do you like ramen?" I ask. "Yeah it's really good. I love it" he says. Omg he loves ramen just like me. This is my new child. Okay stop getting your hopes up Naruto and take the kid to get something to eat. "Come here so I can carry you" I say with a bright smile to assure him it's okay. He nods and walks towards me as I stand up. He lifts his arms and I pick him up and sit him on my hip. With my arm around him to support his back. What time is it? I pull my phone out of my pocket. 5:13pm?! Oh I better hurry before that pervy old man starts bickering. Speak of the devil. I'm getting a call from him now. I start walking with Haru on my hip and I pick up the phone. "Hel- " I was cut off by the old man yelling asking where I'm at. "Be quiet and let me explain. On my way to the ramen shop to see you. Something happened I'll explain to you when I get there I'm about 10 minutes away" I say. "Fine but hurry up" Jiraiya says clearly annoyed. I hang up the phone. I look at Haru and he's smiling brightly at me. This is one brave child. I start talking to him and we get to know each other. Then he asks me a question "what can I call you?". "Whatever you like best" I say. "Okay is it okay if I call you mommy? Because you are like my new mommy" he asks. My eyes widen. Mommy?! Does he realize I'm a boy? "Um I'm a boy" I say. "I know but you look like a girl a little" he says giggling. I really do look like a girl huh. He's also moving on to fast but I guess it's okay since he's still young. "Yeah you can call me mommy" I say. He smiles brightly "okayy!" He says. HE'S SO CUTE I'M GOING TO DIE! Oh we're here. "We're here" I say. I see the pervy old geezer standing outside. He runs up to me once he sees me. "What came up so important that you're 20 minutes late?! Do you know how long I've been waiting?!" He says. I feel Haru's grip tighten in my shirt. "Mommy who is this man?" Haru asks. Jiraiya looks at Haru and his eyes widen. "Mommy?! You have a kid?! Naruto explain!" He says. "This is my godfather Jiraiya. And no he's not my kid. I'll explain everything once we get inside okay?" I say the last part in a kind of a whisper towards Jiraiya. He nods slowly as we walk inside the building. We all settle down and wait for our orders to be taken. "What ramen do you want?" I ask Haru looking down at him in my lap. "Miso!" He shouts. "Wow he even likes ramen like you. And the kind" Jiraiya says looking in awe. I smile down at Haru. Then the lady comes up to us. "Are you ready to order?" She asks. Yes I would li-" I was cut off my Haru "Miso ramen!" He says excitingly. She looks down at Haru. "Awwww he's so Kawaii!" She says. "Thank you" I say. Then she asks a question "is that your child? You seem a little too young to have one". "Oh no ma'am well kinda. I err just adopted him because he needed someone" I say laughing a little to overcome my nervousness. "Oh okay I gotcha" she says with a bright smile. "Oh and yes that will be 3 bowls of miso ramen" I say and she nods before walking off. "Okay pervy old man I'm ready to answer your questions" I say. "Oi I said stop calling me that!" He says. I hear Haru giggle and I see Jiraiya glare at him before chuckling softly. After our ramen was served to us I told Jiraiya everything. From me seeing Haru down the street to him wanting to call me mommy. Jiraiya nods as he listens and eats his ramen. After I'm done talking I look down to see Haru already finished with his ramen. Damn that was fast even for a child like him. He sure does have a appetite. I look at my ramen only to realize I was talking instead of eating. My precious ramen is going to get cold. I hurry up and eat it like I haven't eaten in days. "Woah kid slow down" I heard Jiraiya say. "But it was going to get cold if I didn't eat it" I whined. "You must be really hungry mommy" Haru says. I look down at him and say "I was but I'm full now. How about you?" I ask. "Yep I'm full that was delicious" he says as he licks his lips. I just realized for a three year old he speaks really proper. "Okay Jiraiya it was nice meeting up with you. But now I have to go to the store to buy Haru here some things" I say as I smile. Man I haven't really smiled this much with feeling in a long time. "Okay kid I understand here's some money for you and Haru to use" he says as he hands me a stack of money. My eyes widen. "Um that's not necessary and that's also way too much" I say. He answers "take it you deserve it and you know I make a lot of money so it's nothing. I don't know if I mentioned this but my godfather writes books and travels around the world. Saying he need 'research' but we all know what he really means. His books are how should I put this? Really inappropriate. "Thank you pervy old man" I say with a big smile and tears threatening to fall. "Mommy are you okay?!" Haru asks seeing the tears in my eyes. "Yeah baby I'm okay" I say in a sweet reassuring voice. I see Jiraiya smile "you two take care" he says as we get up to leave. "We will same goes to you pervy old man" I say. Haru turns his head around and waves "bye pervy old man". Oops I guess saying that to much he thinks that's what he need to call him. I can't hold in my laugh it comes out. Jiraiya glares at us and says "you two better get going". We wave bye again before I pick Haru back up. (Sorry I forgot to mention. Haru has a tiny book bag with a bear on it. That's where naruto put the money). "Haru do you wanna go to the store and buy some clothes and toys?" I ask. He nods eagerly. I chuckle before I say "let's go".
