the happy woman , naruto uzumaki

[seven]

Part two of three:

A month has only passed by and Naruto could still tell something was off. Lyn was given meds by Sakura to help her get by though Lyn felt no different.

Sighing, Lyn stared at herself into mirror and popped two pills into her mouth, disregarding Sakura's instructions to take one a day at any time you please.

"I thought it was only one?" Naruto question before brushing his teeth.

"Oh...you don't exactly have to take only one." She replies.

He nods knowing she was lying, later on throughout their day, Naruto again see's Lyn take two more pills in hiding.

As he watched her put the pills away, Naruto went into the bathroom, right after taking and took the pills pouring them out into the toilet and flushed them away.

That night Lyn searched frantically for her meds, itching to get this retched feeling off her shoulders.

"Naruto have you seen my medicine?" She asks impatient

"Why?" He looks up at her

Lyn bites her lip "I just need to know..please."

The blonde crosses is his arms eyeing her, "you took two this afternoon. Four is quite enough."

"It doesn't matter how much I've taken, I just need to take them."

Lyn's blood was boiling at this point, she had no need for this interrogation. Huffing she checked the bathroom; hearing a call for her–

"I threw them away." Naruto speaks

Turning around Lyn refuses to believe "I'm being serious—"

A hard slap was planted right across his face. Naruto winces though didn't say anything, he could tell she was breaking.

She then hit his bare chest, muttering curse words as Naruto hugged her tightly, Lyn cried into his neck begging again for the pain to stop.

The couple stood in silence not needing to say anything else. They understood. He understood.
