My Man, My Money

The King Lies

"How was work?"

I didn't really wanna try make up a lie that had to some what deal with the drug house break in today. Sometimes the guilt of lying to Naruto, was too much.

"That bad aye?" He didn't that cute little snort think he always does when he realizes I don't feel like talking. I could hear the clinking of glass as he put back the wine bottle and instead replaced it with beer.

Soon enough he walked over to me in the living room standing in front of me holding out a bottle, while another rest in his hand. I took it but not before kissing the back of his hand, my way of saying 'thank you'.

He hums as he turns back around walking to the kitchen. He's not gonna make dinner tonight. All I hear is him start to dial on the cordless phone before I go back to thinking about the break in.

"Look buddy I don' know what you talkin abou but what I do know iz dat thiz foo soun' like y'all in some serious trouble."

I glared at the man that say back in his chair, tense. Should be I'm holding M16 right in front of his face ready to fire. I step forward jerking the gun so hits him in the head, "What do you mean..?" I ask in low voice. I glanced around seeing if anyone was wanting to question me.

"Maaaaannnnnnn!" He sighed slouching back in his chair, I re-aimed my automatic at him. "Think abou-t it." He spoke sitting up again, but this time hunched over slouching some, as he rested his elbows on his knees.

"You got half yo money, the other half iz missin'. To me it soun' like it wa' all set up. Whoever got yo other half of money, they wan-t you to find them. It waz all planned out."

I shuffled my gun around, as what he said started to sink in, I started to think of everything else that has happened between- "Boss!" My head snapped up as one of my men jumped in front of me blocking the three bullets. With one of my men laying out on the ground I aimed and took fire-.

"I hope you're in the mood for pizza because that's we are having tonight."
I glance up sitting back as Naruto sat down in my lap straddling me. He took a swig of his beer before clinking clinking his bottle against mine, indicating that still haven't touched mine. "I was thinking beer and Chinese wouldn't all taste that great together."

I quirked a eyebrow at him, questioning his taste because beer and pizza didn't all sound that great either. He shrugged at me as wrapped his arms around me, cold beer being rubbed into my shoulders as warm finger tips played with my hair.

I hummed in approval leaning forward to rest my head on his chest, arms wrapped around his waist. "You're tense, Love." Was all I heard him say into my hair.

I grunted in response, when was I not? I constantly worry and live in stress. It's either work or Naruto and either way it was painful. I hate living like this but there is no other way.

I leaned forward holding Naruto a little tighter, not wanting him to fall off, as I reached forward to set my beer down on the coffee table. I wasn't in the mood drink. He leaned back also setting his beer on the table

I really wasn't in the mood for anything, I just wanted time to stop or to just go back in time and fix everything. I hugged Naruto closer, gripping the back of his shirt, I took deep breaths as I was on verge of cracking, and spilling everything to him.
