TW!!: Small cussing
~Naruto's POV~
My life is rough. I've lived through it for about 12 years now. I had nobody in my life. Not even a friend. No parents. Nothing. I was called a demon. I didn't understand why. I had little money but enough for me to survive. The villagers hated me. Of course, I don't think much of it but I knew later on it would get to me. I stayed in the forest most of my free time since it's the only place where I'm accepted and loved. I usually stayed by the crystal clear waterfall. It was my favorite place. The rushing water sounded peaceful and it always calmed me down whenever I'm sad or angry or just scared. I was always laying on the grass, listening to the wind that brushed through my hair.
I stared at the clouds, it was the only thing that made me feel happy. Though in the end, I always go back to the village and get beaten by old hags. Gods they smell terrible. I started to walk back home after I was calmed down by the waterfall. I had both of my hands on the back of my head. I was walking for a bit until I walked past a graveyard. It had the most important people buried there. I stopped in my tracks and looked towards the graveyard. There was a boy. He seemed about my age but 3 inches taller. He had black hair and black eyes. I started to walk towards him.
"Hey! What are you doing in a graveyard", I yelled out to him. He turned his head, facing me. He seemed to have a shocked face. I stopped in front of him with a confused face. "Hello~? Are you there~" He seemed to snap back into reality.
"W-Wait... you're talking to me?!" He still seemed shocked.
"No shit sherlock. Anyways, I'm Uzumaki Naruto!" He still seemed surprised. Man, why is he even this surprised. He shouldn't be!
"A-Ahh... I'm Uchiha Obito", he said to me. An Uchiha? But isn't Sasuke supposed.
"But aren't the Uchiha supposed to be dead but Sasuke?"
~Obito's POV~
I stared, starting to sweat a little.
"U-Uh... I'm Sasuke's twin brother!"
"Sasuke only has one brother you imposter." I just stared and decided that I was defeated.
"Alright fine. I'm actually dead." Naruto's jaw dropped open.
~Naruto's POV~
"HAH!? DEAD!?" I was just shocked and surprised.
"Do I seriously need to show you proof.." I nodded, too shocked to speak.
"Alright, just look at this gravestone." I looked at the gravestone. It had a name on it. As I read the name, I started to believe him a little. His name was carved into the gravestone.
"Alright, but that's not enough proof!" He sighed with a hint of despretion.
"Fine. You see that tree over there", Obito said. I looked to where he was pointing. I nodded my head. "I can go through it, see?" He charged at the tree and went through it. I stayed put.
"Ok then. I still need more proof." He went through the tree again. He sighed.
"Alright let's go to the village then." I started to sweat. I didn't want to be beaten up by the old hags again.
"Uhh.. m-maybe not." He just stared at me.
"Why not?" I looked at the ground.
"I'm shy around people." He just stared at me, knowing that I was lying. I can read it off of his face.
"I see, ok then. You can hide in that bush over there!" Obito pointed at a bush. I nodded and ran to the bush, peaking up. Obito followed me towards the bush.
"I'll give you more proof. You're the only person that can see me right now!" I started to float up to a random old hag.
"Wait", I whispered but it was too late.
"OVER HERE YOU STUPID BITCH!" He yelled at the old hag but he didn't seem to notice, basically not hearing what Obito said. Obito floated back to me.
"See~? They can't see me! Only you can. At least somehow", he said.
"Alright, alright! I believe you, dattebayo!" I checked the time and realized I was late to the academy.
"SHIT I'M LATE", I yelled as I started charging towards the academy. Obito followed.
"Late for what?"
"THE ACADEMY!"
I was almost at the academy. Obito was at my pace, still floating. I was inside the academy and I busted down the door to my class.
"I'M HERE IRUKA~SENSEI!" I was panting. Obito tried to hold in his laughter but burst out of laughter anyway. Iruka~sensei looked at me.
"You're late Naruto! And this is the 5th time this week that you busted down my door!" I chuckled and apologized for breaking down the door.
"The next time you break down that door, I will make you fix it!" Mizuki chuckled but it seemed off. But I just ignored it. I went back to my seat and placed my head down on my hands. I fidgeted with my pencil, clearly bored. Obito was next to me. I looked over to him and he gave me that 'watch this' look. I looked towards that front since he walked next to Iruka~sensei. He started to make faces at Iruka~sensei. I snickered quietly so nobody can hear me. He made his faces even funnier which forced me to keep my laughing quiet. But I burst out of laughter anyway.
~Obito's POV~
Naruto burst out laughing. Glad he wasn't bored anymore. This Iruka~sensei guy looked at him and so did his whole entire class.
"What's so funny Naruto", a raven-haired kid asked. He had black eyes and duckbutt hair. I chuckled on how the way he looks. But the girls seemed to squirm. Naruto breathed in and out, trying to calm himself down.
"I-It's nothing", he answered, still laughing, "just thought of a joke." Everyone sighed in disappointment. They turned their heads back to the blackboard. Iruka~sensei sighed and went back to teaching the class. I floated up to Naruto and started to start a conversation.
"Soooo, are we like friends now?" He looked at me with a big smile on his face. He nodded. I smiled back and started to think about things while waiting for this stupid boring class to end.
~ A few hours later, Naruto's POV~
"Alright everyone, you're all dismissed." Everyone stood up. As everyone left a group by a group, I ran out of the classroom. I started running towards my apartment. Obito was behind me.
"Soooo, where do you live", Obito asked.
"Well goggles, I live in an apartment!" I giggled at the nickname I gave him. He gave me a 'fuck you' look. I smiled at him. He smiled back. As we approach my apartment, he said something.
"Well, I guess I can train you a bit. It might be fun", he said to me. My eyes widened up. I was wearing a big smile on my face.
"Training me!? Please do Obito!" He looked at me. He smiled and nodded. I smiled big right back at him. We finally made it to my apartment. I took the key out of my pocket. I unlocked my door and sensed that Obito was shocked.
~Obito's POV~
His apartment is a crazy mess! I thought he had parents too. I looked at him with my shocked face.
"This place is a mess! Why don't you clean it up!?" He looked at me.
"Well, I'm too lazy to clean up, besides it'll end up a mess again anyway." I looked at him with a 'you're a dumbass' face.
"Well, I'm not going to train you until you clean this shitty mess up." He looked at me with a shocked face.
"WHAT!? DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BE ABLE TO CLEAN THIS ALL UP!?"
"Yup, if you want to train." He looked at me with the 'fuck you' face. "Well, better get started!"
