888Chapter 3:
Naruto was lying on the hard wooden bench in the train station. First they’d taken the stolen Uchiha security vehicle to the city bus depot. Then they’d boarded a bus that would take them into the heart of the central city. The Uchiha family had an apartment on the ‘good’ side of the capital city but that was not the side where Sasuke rented a motel for the night. Naruto couldn’t seem to rest, eat or do more than shake his head.
What they were doing finally caught up with him. He’d left his apartment, his job… Iruka would never know what had happened to him or know that he was going to be a grandfather. A shudder of despair wracked through him. Worst of all he’d taken Sasuke away from everything he loved and held dear. Being an Uchiha was Sasuke’s everything. It defined his friend in every way and he was giving that up to try and protect Naruto and the little baby inside him.
“I can’t… I can’t let you do this Sasuke.” He’d whispered the words once the raven sat next to him, tickets in hand. You need to go home, say you’re sorry, that you just wanted to protect me and the baby because I’m your… I was your friend. They know you have a blind spot for me. They’re your family.” Finally the red rimmed and blood shot blue eyes looked up.
“Dobe. They aren’t… my father isn’t the man I always believed he was. I knew he was a hard man, that the name meant everything to him but I always thought my father was a good man. But what he said to you. What he planned to do. Right or wrong, bastard or not you are carrying an Uchiha and that should have… his grandchild should have meant something to him Naruto. If your baby meant nothing then I’m just his spare. I’m a backup plan in case Itachi steps out of line or dies.” The heartbreak Naruto saw in Sasuke’s eyes mirrored his own. “He was wrong and Itachi was worse. They make me sick and I can’t stand the idea of having to see their faces. You have always loved me. No matter what I said or did or how stupid I got, you were there. Unconditionally my friend and more of a brother than Itachi ever was. That is what family is supposed to be Naruto. That’s what this kid deserves.”
“What about your mom? Sasuke, she doesn’t even know yet. I don’t think she would feel the same way do you?” Naruto looked up at his best friend. Nothing about the woman who had raised Sasuke and so warmly opened her home to him made Naruto believe that she would turn away her grandchild.” “I’ll… maybe once we’re settled we can write or call her and Iruka. You know they can’t ever know where we are right?” Sasuke stood as their train rolled into the station. “Come on. Let’s get you settled and make sure you have a direct route to the bathrooms.” “Mah mah, you’re real funny. You trying being three months pregnant and on a fast moving vehicle. I’m all messed up inside. Hey wait! Oh no I forgot the pills Tsunade gave me!” Turning Naruto made as if he planned to just go back to his apartment. Sighing, Sasuke grabbed the hood part of Naruto’s navy blue hoodie. “Dobe, I grabbed all of your prescriptions when I packed up the bathroom. I told you I’d take care of you both. Now get on the train.” Smiling sheepishly Naruto shouldered his bag and squeezed by Sasuke into the train’s interior. Sasuke had refused to allow Naruto to carry more than his computer back pack and one duffle. The rest was carried by the raven or on a cart. “Yeah, Sas, you did.” Once they were seated Naruto linked his fingers through Sasuke’s. If he was going to do this with anyone; run away from the entire world, try to have and raise a baby in secret… Sasuke was the only person in the world he’d want to do it with. Sasuke was the only person he could trust not to let him screw up entirely. “So where are we going?” The blond watched as they finally pulled out of the station and then pulled the shade down as they gained speed, trying to keep what little was left in his stomach there. “Konoha.” When he heard the startled noise from his best friend, Sasuke shook his head. “I have some people there, connections from university that can help us out. I’m calling in a few favors too.” Sasuke glanced at Naruto who snickered. “I can only imagine who could have gotten themselves in a spot where they ended up owing you one.” Naruto smirked and closed his eyes. “Wake me when we get there yeah?” Sasuke watched as Naruto seemed to just switch off and fell asleep, trusting Sasuke to keep him safe. Squeezing the tanned fingers linked with his own Sasuke spent the next three hours watching Naruto. 888 Naruto yawned once more as Sasuke got the last of their bags off the baggage claim and sighed. “Over there with the high pony tail. That’s my friend.” “If he’s such a good friend how come I never heard of him?” Naruto asked eyeing the bored looking man. “Is he smoking? Go make him put that out. I’m not going near him if he’s smoking. It’s bad for the baby.” Sasuke groaned, carrying their luggage toward Shikamaru and his car. “Please put that out. My friend is pregnant and already being a complete pain in the ass about it.” “Is it yours?” Shikamaru asked without blinking as he opened the trunk. He stubbed his cigarette out and then helped Sasuke load the luggage. “Traveling pretty light, pregnant boyfriend and you’re asking me to produce papers. Sounds like Daddy dearest doesn’t approve of Blondie.” As Naruto came toward him, Sasuke turned his back to the blond and gave his best death glare. “Do not bring any of that up in front of Naruto. I need the papers and accounts and you were my best chance at making this work.” Nodding, Shikamaru held his hand out to the beautiful blue eyed man. Now that he could see him up close, the Nara understood completely why Sasuke was so protective. “Let’s get you two back to my place. You can rest up there while I get the final touches of your new lives together.” Climbing into the backseat of the small car Naruto looked at Sasuke in confusion. “New lives?” “Yes, Shikamaru has worked up accounts, birth certificates and the works. He’s fabricated new identities for us so my father and brother can’t track us or trace us.” He saw the shock written on Naruto’s face and sighed in frustration. “How many times do I have to tell you I am going to take care of you both before you start believing me?” “Sorry Sasuke it’s just… after what I did I didn’t ever expect you to forgive me.” Shikamaru raised a single brow as he turned onto his street and made a mental note that the kid was not Sasuke’s. “Naruto, just shu… let it go.” Sasuke glanced at the Nara from the side and frowned. “Did you have any trouble setting this up?” “No, in fact it was easier for him than it was for you. I was able to use a bit of reality to pepper his background and by making you spouses it adds some credence to yours. The biggest obstacle for you is the loss of your second degree. I had a connection at the school who helped me get your bachelors degree and school records copied into your alias but there was nothing I could do about your Master’s since you went to a different school.” Shikamaru parked in his spot in the building garage. “Come on, I’ll get you guys settled and explain the rest.” Following, Naruto’s stomach growled once they were in the elevator and he flushed when two sets of dark eyes turned to look at him. “Sorry… baby seems to be hungry.” Shikamaru couldn’t help but be charmed by the blond. “I’ve got some stuff but we’ll order dinner in. I’m not known for my culinary skills.” He shrugged by way of apology and unlocked his door, then punched a code into a key pad next to his door before a scan of his thumb was taken, finally allowing the plain looking apartment door to unlock. “Wow, are you yakuza or something?” Naruto couldn’t imagine needing that kind of security. “Huh? Oh no, I’m a specialist. I do security work for a lot of high profile companies. I’m a cleaner of sorts but in cyber space.” He was being intentionally vague and Naruto decided not to ask. Shikamaru led the two men to his guestroom, “This is the guest room. Sorry there’s only one bed. You guys will have to share.” Not looking back, he continued to his office which required another pass code to enter. Naruto was passed a green folder and Sasuke a blue folder. Inside were the falsified documents from birth certificates and high school diplomas to driver’s licenses and even pass ports. “Naruto Namikaze? You used my dad’s name? Isn’t that a little obvious?” Naruto raised a brow, a little annoyed. Having been an orphan he’d spent most of his high school years researching to find his birth parents only to find they’d both been murdered leaving him alone in the world with nothing and hadn’t even been married which was why his official documents all gave him his mother’s name. “No, the less that is actually fabricated the better it helps to strengthen the lies. Look, if the Uchiha’s come looking for the two of you they aren’t going to expect you to go with something easy or obvious. They are going to expect the two of you to have tried to flee the country. Your first names, your birthdates, and your basics are the same. It’s too easy to screw up if you have to relearn your lives. You’re just going to have to keep low profiles.” Looking pointedly at Sasuke he sighed. “No fortune 500 companies and no becoming a television star. You’re going to just lead normal lives.” Naruto snorted. “We’re gonna get busted. Sasuke doesn’t know what low profile means.” He teased looking through all his documents. “We’re going to do fine because I’ve already put in a few applications under my new name. I figured we could get a place here. Konoha is a small place but big enough to get lost in Naru. I’m sure you’ll have no problem finding work.” Sasuke perused his own paperwork. “We should change the pictures. I’m going to have to change my hair. It’s too obvious. Do you have those places for us to get a look at?” Shikamaru turned grumbling. “You know I’m not your fucking housing agent but I got it together. And what jobs Sasuke? I meant it when I said low profile.” “Teaching. Something my father would never expect me to do. Teaching at a high school none the less.” It was no secret Sasuke found teenagers annoying. He’d found them irritating in high school. “Whoa school teacher? Really think you can handle that?” Naruto blinked in complete shock. “They’ll never suspect. The pay is good and they have some very high dollar private institutions here. We’ll need the money with the baby coming.” Sasuke sighed shifting embarrassed. Smiling softly Naruto’s hand went to his belly. “I’ll get a job Sasuke. I promise I can do this… I can take care of us both.” “Well you’re going to be living together. You’re married. So you’ll be splitting it all from now on. Get used to that.” Shikamaru shrugged. “WHO told you to do that?” – “WHAT? I’m married to the Teme?” Secretly it was a dream come true for them both. Shikamaru blinked and then snorted and turned back to his printer handing over the list of available houses and apartments in Konoha. “Thank you for seeing to all of this. Naruto why don’t you shower first. You look wrecked.” Sasuke sighed shaking his head a little. 888 PLEASE REMEMBER TO LEAVE FEEDBACK!!! .
