Sasusaku: The Industry

Chapter 8

Naruto pov:

I somehow managed to actually sneak away from Shion all week, with all the questions circling around me and hinata, they're not all wrong.

I've been seeing hinata ever since the hospital which was only like a week ago, now, i had been around boruto making up well trying to make up for the three years i was absent.

It sucks with how everything works now and days, my team knows just as well as i do that boruto is my son, I genuinely don't see how my image can be ruined when he was something I didn't know about,it was a highschool/summer fling that brought him into this world.

But I can't keep denying him it feels wrong, just how being shion and still loving hinata feels wrong. Getting with shion was only meant to be a distraction to get over hinata as she was with that toneri guy, I don't know how i decided to marry the likes of her.

"Naruto baby, the bakery are sending over the cakes for us to taste test, so be down in 10 okay?"

I groaned and rolled my eyes.

"Yeah whatever y'know" i said back as i leaned back in my chair. I know for a fact hinata feels the way i do, the look in her eyes is the same as to when she would look at me in highschool, how she would look when we danced together. Honestly I'm not even mad that she cheated all that time ago, i had neglected her for the plan to get rid of danzo and had been inconsiderate and insensitive about her injury by talking about the showcase while she had to give up her passion of dance.

Although hinata puts on that strong business woman face, i know she misses the love of her life, which is dance.

If i could drop everything right now and be with hinata and bring her dream back, i would, and we would pass our passion and love of the art of dance onto our son.

He's a bright little man, and not just for his hair and blue eyes which resemble mine, he's bright because of his intellect and observation.

I hate how things are, it tears me apart everytime we meet at a new private location he think I'm finally staying with them.

In private i love them with all my heart but publicly i have to act as if they're a mere nothing to me.

Which will change...one day.

"Naruto get downstairs now!" Shion orderd as i rolled my eyes, where was shikamaru when you needed him to mutter troublesome woman.

"Okay im here" i said uninterested in the cake which was weird of me since i loved food in general.

"Here try this one" she said holding up a form with a piece of cake stabbed onto it.

I opened my mouth slightly as she put the fork in it and i grimaced at the taste in my mouth.

"Ew the fuck is that?" I said.

"It's carrot cake" she said as i gagged trying to remove the taste of said cake the fuck out of my mouth.

"Throw that one away" i said as she rolled her eyes.

Looking at all the cakes i knew i rather been doing this with someone else, it all just didn't feel right with shion, I don't even think we've told one another i love you.

Hinata should be here placing cake in my mouth,hinata should be the one wearing the engagement ring, hinata should be the one i say i do to.

I fumbled the bag.

"Sweetheart, i must ask, lately you've been coming home late or you've been distant as if avoiding me all of a sudden... is something the matter?" She asked as i turned to meet her purple eyes.
