Iruka's Family

Chapter 1

Hi! Please excuse any spelling error. Sorry for the short chapters. Hope you enjoy!

"I'm Naruto's Father."

Iruka had not been prepared in the slightest to hear those words. He had never imagined that this day would come. He didn't know who Naruto's parents were. But He knew they were dead. Or they were said to be. Yet here he was looking into the same bright blue eyes, there was a lack of the mistavis spirit, but they had the same kindness. He looked like Naruto, in more ways than one. But that was not the most shocking revelation Iruka was having. The fact that the Fourth Hokage was Narutos father was enough to shock him. The Fourth had died the night of the attack. And He never heard of him having a kid, a wife yes, but no kid. But then again, these last 3 years Iruka had learned that the unexpected and impossible should be expected.

"I know this is a lot to take in." Iruka snapped back to reality to see the Third Hokage looking up at him. Iruka tended to forget the leader of the village was shorter than him. For some reason however, he seemed much smaller. "I didn't believe it myself when I first heard."

The Fourth started to look behind Iruka and into the house Naruto had lived in all his life. Of course he wanted to see his son. What father wouldn't.

"Is he in there?" The older blond spoke, almost like a plea. Iruka realized how long he had been standing there shocked and tried to remember how to speak.

"He's not, went out to play in the woods." Iruka barely managed to get it out. And he lost confidence when the man in front of him turned his friendly smile into an annoyed grimus.

"Why is he alone in the woods?" The Fourth gridded. Iruka let out a small whimper. He knew Naruto was not alone, but he also knew Naruto had been in the woods alone before. He did his best to speak.

"He's not alone" Iruka stuttered, "He's with...there's an adult with him." The man started to calm his aura. He looked apologetic, like it had been a long day of hearing bad news.

"I'm sorry for assuming, I should be grateful someone was looking after him." That last part he turned to the Third with a look of pure betrayal. Iruka looked down to his feet. He felt like he didn't deserve such gratitude. He motioned to let them all in. He prayed that everything would turn out alright.
