A NEW LIFE

4

It has been a week since Minato let Naru to live with him and began to get used to waking up with his breakfast and coffee. Minato feels happy not to be alone at home, even if he has friends who spend time during the day, at home at night he felt lonely. Naru is a very easy-to-talk person, even if she has moments of mood swings on Minato, but it doesn't bother him, he was surprised at began, but he gets used, especially as Kurama helped him in those moments. But Minato and Naru have become close, that's what Minato believes, and this idea is because Naru lets him touch her when she wakes up in the middle of the night screaming. The first night when it happened he reacted instinctively.

Flashback

It was a quiet night in Minato House when once a scream was heard. Minato woke up grabbing a kunai and immediately appeared in Naru's room, which she was on the floor in a corner of the rooms. Seeing that there is no danger Minato puts the kunai aside and slowly approaches Naru, stops half a meter away from her and kneels with care not to make any sudden movements.

"Naru ..." Minato's voice was gentle not to scare her, but Naru still jumps a little. She glared at him with tears in her eyes, seeing the tears flowing on her cheeks. Minato approaches her lightly and takes her into his arms, bringing her at the same time in his lap. "Shhhh... it's okay. It'll be okay." Minato said. Naru was trembling but she embracing Minato.

"Why don't they just leave me alone ever in my dreams they torture me? ... why me? .....Why can't I be happy?....." Naru whispered through the cry. Something in Minato's mind had struck and a sensation to protect her had gone awry. He gathered her harder to bring her near, Minato whispered to her ear.

"Naru look at me." And Naru looks at him with her ocean blue look in his sky blue, his left hand is cup her cheek. She is getting a little bit calm. "I will protect you, you and your child, I will be there for you. Now to bed, you need to rest and you have to sleep for two ." Minato chuckle at the end. As he helped her stand and make sure she was comfortable in bed, he sat down at the edge of the bed, stroking her back to help her sleep and even the finishing Naru began to shut her eyes asleep again.

"Thank you, Minato." Murmured Naru. Minato stayed for a few minutes after he went back to his room.

Flashback end

Today being free, the two of them will go for a walk. Outside was a sunny day with a breeze, a perfect day. The two were getting ready, being a gorgeous day thinking about going to a picnic on the Hokage's mountain. As they headed for the mountain, Minato heard a yell too familiar, and when he realized who had the only time he has was to catch Naru by hand and to get out of the way. When they turned out a person jumped where they were before. Minato breathes is relief. Naru has her hands on her large stomach waved to see the mysterious person who just standing up from the floor. Naru saw a man a little taller than Minato with long red hair.
