No Time For Love (Naruto Fanfic)

Chapter 15

The next day Naruto woke up with  the sun shining in his face.

He yawned sitting up and stretching his arms out. That had been a good long rest he had. The best sleep he'd had in a week. When had his bed been this soft and comfortable? Wait a minute.

Naruto jolted in the bed when he came to his senses. The last thing he remembered was crying in the Hokage's arms so how had he gotten home? Naruto blushed remembering that embarrassing moment.

Looking around he realized this wasn't even his room. Where was he?!

"Hello there." Called a soft voice.

Naruto jumped out of the bed at the sound of new voice and settled into a fighting stance.

"There's no need for that. I didn't mean to startle you. I just heard you waking up so I came to check on you. Your in the Hokage mansion. My father in-law brought you here." The stranger explained.

The stranger in question was a woman who looked to be in her late 20s. She had dark blue eyes and black hair cut just below her shoulders.

"Your father as in the Hokage?" Naruto questioned.

"Yes, I'm Mikan. Now follow me please." The women said leaving the room and walking to another room around the corner.

"Here's the washroom. You can freshen up in here. Once your done just call my name and I'll take you to see the Hokage downstairs."

Once Naruto was done freshening up he called for Mikan and she led him to the hokage.

"So do you and your husband live here with him?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, he's getting old in his age and someone needs to watch over him." She replied. "It's us and our son, Konohamaru. I'm afraid you won't get to meet him today he's resting up. Poor boy has the flu." She explained.

"I'm not that old. I'm as strong as I've ever been!" The hokage shouted indignantly.

"Sure you are pops. We just feel better knowing that your safe." A man with light brown hair and dark eyes assured the old man.

Sarutobi waved him off and turned his attention to Naruto.

"Good morning Naruto. I see you've met Mikan. This is my son Reo." Said the Hokage.

The man stepped forward to shake his hand. "It's great to finally meet you Naruto. I hope you slept well I know having to process all that information must have been taxing."

Naruto turned to the Hokage raising an eyebrow. Had the old man told them his secrets too? They may be his family, but he didn't know them and had no reason to trust them other than knowing that they were the Hokage's family.

"We know your the Yondaime's son. You can trust us knowing your secret. Not only am I the hokage's son, but we both are also one of his most trusted confidents. More correctly his right hands." Reo explained.

Naruto only pursed his lips at that. What good did it do giving family members high positions.

"That wasn't out of favoritism. These two are very skilled ninja who have proven themselves worthy of their positions." The Hokage said.

"Would it help knowing that I was also one of your father's former teammates?" Asked Reo.

"You knew my father well?"

"Yes, I was one of his closet friends before he died. He kept his marriage to your mother a secret, but he trusted me with the knowledge. I wanted to adopt you, but the council was in charge and the villagers and elder council rejected my request along with the request of some other people."
