Way Back to Your Heart

Chapter 15 - Questions

"Bo-..." I stopped halfway.

I was stunned with what I saw, never in my wildest dreams I have ever thought that I will see such a view. A smile slowly registered on my lips as I continue to walk and admire the two closely.

At the center of the small bed, size enough for a child was Naruto, sleeping soundly with his long legs bent to be able to fit himself in the bed and on top of him was Boruto, the little guy was slumbering peacefully at Naruto's chest. The sight of them made my heart race, I was overflowed with joy that small drop of tears started to flow on my cheeks.

The moment my secretary told me that Boruto is sick I immediately went back to Japan. With the help of the Hyuuga's private plane I managed to return in no time.

I sat on the bedside, and with a delicate hand I ruffled Boruto's shiny blonde hair, worry came to me when I felt his temperature and noticed the small red rash on his small chubby face.

"My baby... poor little thing, Mama is here now" I whispered and turned my gaze to the bigger blonde, and from Boruto's hair I moved my hand to Naruto's and caress the tips of some blonde strands.

"Thank you for being there for our son..." I whispered and leaned to plant a kiss on his forehead.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I froze, my lips still on his forehead. Slowly, I pulled away to meet his gaze.. He was awake... and Naruto is looking straight at me, he has a slight blush on his cheeks as he asked me the question.

"N-naruto kun ... w-what is that?" I stood up and stepped back with sweat forming on my forehead.

Naruto slowly pulled himself up and carefully laid Boruto in the middle of the bed placing the blanket back on the sleeping child.

Naruto then turned to me and pulled my wrist.

"Let's talk outside " he said as he delicately pulled me out of Boruto's room.

We made our way to the living room but we saw Hanabi laying on the sofa watching tv so I signalled Naruto to go back and settled everything at my room.

And as soon as we entered the room I turned and ask Naruto.

"What is it you wanted to talk about?" I asked yet having an idea what he wanted to talk about.

"About Boruto... why didn't you tell me?"

"T-tell you what?" Now I'm stuttering.

"C'mon Hinata, you know what I am talking about - why didn't you tell me that I'm his father" Naruto said trying to control his voice.

"Y-you... How'd you know?" I bit my lip, did Hanabi told him.

"It is not important how... Why didn't you tell me Hina-"

"Because I .. Naruto, we just patched things up.. like what? two days? ... " I hugged myself, collecting the words I needed to continue.

"I hated you, I used to believe that I hate you ..." I paused, took a deep breath before I continued.

"I was on my 2nd month when I found out, a week before I leave for Europe. I am at lost, just turned twenty and need to go to the other side of the world yet pregnant with your child, I didn't tell anyone aside from Kiba ... I was so scared... I don't know what to do, I've been through worst but... but when I saw Boruto, all the pain, all of it was taken away. That is when I made a promise to myself that you'll never found out about Boruto, that will be your price for leaving me... B-but that was before... Because you're with me now" I explained without looking at him, I felt his hands on my arms. Naruto then pulled me into a tight hug.
