"There is no fucking way, who told him?!" Naruto yelled at the phone, groaning out loudly as Yahiko stood by his side with a blank expression. "What do you mean you don't know? Damnit, this should've never even happened!" Naruto hung up, glaring at the orange haired man at his side.

"Don't look at me like that, I didn't do shit." Yahiko scoffed and looked away from the blond.

Naruto glared at the man in disbelief. "Like hell you didn't." He walked out of the room, taking a seat on the sofa with his head in his hands. "He's going to go crazy if he sees me."

Yahiko followed behind the shorter man, tired of his tantrum. "The safer option is to leave school, it's not like you actually study." He took a seat beside the blond. Slowly patting his back while he spoke, knowing the latter was all ears. "I can get you into an online program if you're ready for that."

Naruto looked at him with a shocked expression, his lips parted slightly. "You would actually do that for me?" Naruto questioned, he didn't think Yahiko was going to be kind enough to help him figure it all out. Turns out he was wrong, Yahiko did have a heart, surprisingly.

Yahiko nodded as Naruto let out a big sigh, he was relieved, for now. "I'll fill in your paperwork at school, but I need you to do something for me." Yahiko looks at him and pulls out a paper, writing something on it as he handed the paper to the blond. "I need you to go to this address and ask for Obito, tell him I sent you there."

Naruto nodded, he felt as though he had heard that name before. "I'll drop you off before heading to your school, let's go." Yahiko got up as Naruto followed after him hurriedly.

They sat in silence during the whole ride. Naruto was too deep in his own thoughts before noticing that the car had stopped. He looked at Yahiko, gulping loudly. Yahiko chuckled and patted his back as comfort. "I told him you were dropping by today, you'll be fine."

Naruto nodded and stepped out of the car to look at the tall building. He was about to ask Yahiko something but just as he turned around, Yahiko sped off. Naruto rolled his eyes and took a deep breath before entering the building. He glanced around to notice that everybody else was wearing suits and business attires.

To any other person, Naruto would seem like an outcast in this place. He was thankful that nobody seemed to pay attention to him, almost everybody sitting in front of the computers, minding their business. He reached the reception, waiting for the lady behind the desk to get off of her phone. When she did, she looked up at him with a blank expression.

"I need to speak with Obito..?" He showed her the slip of paper Yahiko gave. "Yahiko sent me." The lady nodded and got up, assisting the blond into the elevator.

The two reached the highest floor, as the elevator opened, Naruto was surrounded by a large group of upper class. It was clear there was a sky high difference between the people working below. If he thought the people down there were wealthy, then this was definitely the highest class.

The lady led him into an office, knocking before they heard a voice from behind the door. The lady sent him in with the paper and closed the door behind Naruto.

There sat a man with what looked like scars on half of his face. A black eyepatch on his eye, he wore an expensive black and dark gray suit, separating him from the rest of his workers. He gave a bored expression, waiting for the blond to say something.

"Oh. Uh, hi, I'm Naruto. Yahiko said he let you know I was coming by." The blond stumbled when he was met with the daggers coming his way.

Obito simply nodded. "Very well, sit down." Immediately, he opened up his laptop and began typing something. "So, tell me. How do you know Yahiko?"

"Well, we used to live in the same area and one day he kind of just...came up to me and we started hanging out. We lost contact for a while since I moved into a different place but we happened to stumble across each other on social media."

Obito nodded as the blond finished talking. Within the next couple seconds, a knock came from his office door. "Sir, it's ready." An assistant informed, as she turned around and left.

"Well, welcome to the business, Naruto. Let's go." Obito smiled at the blond. Naruto didn't dare to say anything but instead followed the latter quietly.

Soon enough, they entered a room and the sight nearly gave Naruto a heart attack. There was Itachi sitting down on a couch with a book in his hand. He seemed to be shocked by Naruto's sudden appearance too because he got up right away.

"Naruto-kun? What's going on? Why is he here, Obito?"

"Itachi, relax."

"Don't tell me to fucking relax! If Sasuke sees him he's going to rip this place apart!" Itachi quickly ran over to Naruto, inspecting him all over carefully. "Naruto-kun, please don't tell me he did anything to you."

Naruto looked puzzled as he turned to face Obito, who had a small grin on his face. "He didn't do anything to me, Itachi-san."

"Oh thank goodness. But, you really shouldn't be here; this place isn't good for you."

"Is Sasuke here?" Obito asked all of a sudden, as he looked out the window, lighting a cigarette.

"No." Itachi sighed as he let go of Naruto.

"Well, he's here now." Obito chuckled as Itachi and Naruto looked at each other. "His car just parked. Ah, there he is."

Itachi grabbed Naruto's hand and ran towards the door. "Stall him for me."

Obito nodded as he let a puff out.
