Life is Life

I Walked

After we were both done eating Sasuke guided me through the house. As of right now we are walking down stairs.

"Your house is so big I'm surprised you don't get lost." I can try and make small talk but Sasuke doesn't seem to want anything to do with me.
He just nodded his head.

"Why would I get lost in my own house?" Sasuke asked.
Yeah I guess...... you wouldn't.

"Dunno"

"Here is the movie room, and the game room in the other side of the wall." Wow! This place is like a hotel.

"How many rooms are in this house?"

"Why would I count them?" Sasuke answers with some attitude.

"Why are you such an asshole?" I shot back.

"Why are you such an idiot? And why can't your parents just come get you?" Well, how rude. Ya know maybe I had it coming but still. I don't want to stay here!

"Ya know I don't need this, I don't want to stay here!" I yelled and stormed back upstairs, I'm not going to stay here and get called an idiot by some asshole all because Kakashi feels bad. I can walk.

I put my shoes on and slammed the door on my way out, this whole project is one problem after another and I don't want to be alone with Sasuke anymore. If he can bring his friends, I can bring mine.

I pulled out my phone and walked outside this is all a big mess, and its really dark outside, and really cold. Maybe this wasn't a good idea? All well. I'm not going back now, even if it kills me. I do have some pride.

I walked the sidewalk once again, I'm pretty sure I know where to go but still I had my phone out. My nose and hands are freezing, its gotta be below freezing. I texted my mom and she said she was still up. Thank god.

I saw my house, after walking in the dark and getting scared at literally everything I heard I finally saw my house. I ran and ran, the lights were still on which is a good sign, I cant wait to just get in my bed.

I opened the door and kicked my shoes off, I looked on the couch my mom and dad were sitting on the couch next to each other wrapped in a blanket.

"Why are you home?" My mom asked me, concern was written all over her face.

I smiled and sat on the couch, "I don't like Sasuke Uchiha" That's all I said. My dad nodded his head while my mom shook hers, women am I right.

"Who brought you home?" she asked. I looked away. "Naruto"

"Yeah?" I asked pretending not to hear her question.

"who brought you home?" my dad sat up on the couch clearly waiting for an answer.

"I walked"

"Naruto! Do you know how dangerous that is?" I shrugged my shoulders does it matter? I'm home.

"Why didn't you call?" My dad asked his voice raising ever so slightly, great.

"It was all the way on the other side of town, waste of gas" My mom glared at me and my dad gave me a look of disapproval.

"Naruto. You could've asked we would have picked you up!" I know, that's why I didn't. They can't seem to understand that.

"It's fine, the walk wasn't that bad" I lied. It was hell.

"Its freezing outside!"

"It's freezing inside!" I yelled back, my mom doesn't seem to understand. I'm doing this for her!

My mother got up from the couch and walked into her bedroom slamming the door.

I looked at my father, he sighed.

"I know you don't like this, but life isn't always fair Naruto" I nodded my head, I've already heard the 'we're poor speech'

"I know that! It's not that big of a deal."

"Yes it is! Your safety comes before everything including your mother and I" My father and I think a lot alike. But him and my mom are always worrying over me. They don't need to.

"I'm sorry" I said and walked away, clearly I put my parents through a lot and I know we don't have money and winters are always the worst for us. BUT sometimes I just wish, we could live in a house with heat and so much food we need extra freezers. Like my friends.

I got into my bed and closed my eyes, although the only thing I could see was the asshole known as Sasuke. He seemed so surprised when I yelled at him, I also found out he doesn't have any siblings and his parents are most likely dead. So really, the question is; who's life is good in this world?
