Naruto's POV

After I packed my stuff, I turned to say bye to the rest of the guys and went home with Sasuke. After I got into my apartment, I decided to call my godfather Pervy Sage. He lives in New York, and he's an author of the famous Icha Icha Series. Kakashi-sensei loves his books, and that's what I always get him for the holidays. I've tried reading it but it's frankly disgusting. I have no idea how people like that stuff, y'know?

I dialed up his number, then waited for an answer. "H-hello?" The voice on the other line was tired. "Pervy Sage?"

"Oh, Naruto! How are you doing?" Somehow he didn't sound sleepy anymore.

"Uh, I'm fine."

"So, has school been kind to you?"

"So far, it hasn't killed me. How's New York been?" He moved there from Los Angeles last year for business reasons.

"It's a lot different than California, that's for sure. The weather here isn't as pleasant, which is bad for my research on the beach. And unfortunately, there are no hot springs here either," he sighed. I knew that "research" actually meant peeping on ladies. I haven't been there yet, but judging by Pervy Sage's description of the city, it seemed way moodier than Los Angeles.

"So, any new books coming out?" I was gonna have to give Kakashi-sensei a new gift for Christmas, which is a month away. I give him gifts because he was the first person after Pervy Sage to actually take care for me after my parents death, and he's been like a brother to me, since we both lost our parents as kids. "Well, right now, I'm slated to release a new book on New Year's Day. But I'm mostly done with it, so I'll just have to do some revisions and it'll be ready."

"Hey Pervy Sage, are you gonna be able to give me a copy of the book by Christmas?" Pervy Sage took a while to answer, but then he said, "Sure. If I don't encounter any delays." I mentally rejoiced, since now I didn't have to worry about Kakashi-sensei's present. He's gonna be really happy. He sure loves those books considering he's single.

"Hey Naruto," Pervy Sage said. "I need to tell you something. Your parents told me that they want you to grow up with some responsibility and an understanding on how the working world works, so shortly after your next birthday, you're gonna have to go to work because I'm gonna only pay a portion of your rent. I'm sorry, but it was your parents' wishes."

"Don't worry, Pervy Sage, I understand. I'll look around for a job." It was probably gonna be a drag, as Shikamaru would say, but I don't do much at home other than play basketball or sometimes FIFA or 2k on my Xbox One.

"Hey, Naruto. I gotta get ready to see a businessman right now, so I'm gonna have to end the call now. Hopefully we can talk later."

"Alright, Pervy Sage. See ya."

After he hung up I started just watching some basketball highlights. The Lakers were pretty disappointing that season, so I looked at some highlights of other teams. Pervy Sage was talking about how fun a team the New York Knicks were. I decided to look at some of their games. I knew of them from Linsanity, which happened a couple years ago. For some reason, they didn't resign him though and their coach resigned. Now he's somewhere in Charlotte. I also got to watch guys like Melo, Steve Novak and J.R Smith. And I'm not gonna lie, they were a fun team to watch.

After a while, I looked at the time, and realized that it was time to sleep. So I put my phone down, brushed my teeth, and then went to sleep.
