CHAPTER THREE: …I want my frog back!

Naruto blinked and looked at Sakura, who just said THAT name. She had tears in her eyes. And suddenly everything was clear (Just kidding! It's Naruto after all!). It really was Sasuke in his arms. Now Naruto too could recognize him. Gods! It was so obvious! He's older, taller and… bigger but it's still HIM.

That was when Naruto realized why he was hard. It wasn't because of some pretty boy. It was because of Sasuke! Sasuke! Of all the people in the whole world IT HAD TO BE HIM! Naruto needed to flee. He panicked. He pushed Sasuke off of his laps and stood up.

"I'm leaving…"

"WAIT! NARUTO!"

Sakura had no intention of letting him do what he wanted.

"We need to tell hokage-sama!"

"Fine! I'll go and tell him that Sasuke-baka's back! I'll be right back! I need to leave this place!"

Ino nodded her head not turning her gaze from Sasuke. (She wasn't able to speak due to the blood loss.) Seeing this Naruto took off his coat and covered Sasuke's private parts.

"Now help me to find Kaeru. I'm not leaving without him!"

"Naruto…" Sakura looked at him like he was an idiot (even though he WASN'T!)

"This is Kaeru!" she finished.

"Nope!" - Naruto gave a triumphant smile. - "This is Prince Uchiha Sasuke-baka! And he is naked in lady's rooms! He should be in trouble! I can't wait to see that!"

"Naruto you are an idiot! Kaeru was Sasuke!"

"That is NOT true! I won't accept it! I want Kaeru back!"

Then he left the lady's rooms and went straight to the Hokage.

He stormed into the hokage's room and he bumped into someone in the doorway.

"I'm sorry…"

When he realized who it was he suddenly forgot about the whole Sasuke-situation.

"Shiranui-san!"

"Naruto watch where you're going!"

"Shiranui-san, tell me, do you like girls?"

Genma gave him a false smile and clenched his teeth. He felt extremely awkward. What this nosy kid could possibly want? Could it be that he saw something? Maybe that time when he was drunk and he let Aoba to give him a head… Now this is a delicate situation. But (since he knew that Raidou was still in the hokage's room on the other side of the door) he decided to use his "reputation" and maybe impressed Naruto a bit. This kid was always surrounded by the most important and coolest people. And he grew up to be such a handsome young knight… If Genma wouldn't fell so hard for Raidou he would probably try to hit on this kid. So he tried to be cool to impress him.

"Sure… Naruto…. Why? Do you need some advice? You can ask me anything. I'm a real lady-killer!"

Naruto didn't even try to hide his disappointment.

"You are…?"

"Well… sure. Just tell me, what the problem is."

"You're the problem. You're useless!"

"Try me! Maybe I AM able to help you."

"No. You are not."

"Come on Naruto! Tell me! You can't satisfy her? Is that it? My young friend, woman's body is something you must learn. You must learn every single one of them and believe me, no one in this castle learned even a half of what I did!"

Oh, Genma was soooooooooooooooo smug! Of course it was until Naruto said:

"Wow, did you hear that Namiashi-san?"

Genma's senbon hit the floor.

"Yes I did." - Answered the calm and slow voice behind Genma's back. Naruto could swear that he heard some sadness in Raidou's voice, or maybe something more like disappointment. Naruto clapped Genma's back.

"He's like my Ero-sennin ne? Namiashi-san…"

Genma wasn't able to speak or move and somehow he became paler than… the palest shade of pale. It was odd. It looked like the life just flew away from this poor guy. Naruto wondered, why he had thought that Genma is cool. Kakashi was right! He's an ass and he likes girls so he's out of question. It was wasting of time and Naruto didn't have any time to waste. He was in a hurry. But why? Why did he even come here? OH YES! He needed to get Kaeru back no matter what! Naruto ran - this time successfully - into the hokage's room.

Raidou was still facing Genma's back.

"Genma we should go now. We have a work to do. You can brag about your girls later."

Raidou didn't know that Genma's world just fell apart and that he was just trading over the pieces that left so Genma couldn't even pick them up. Genma wanted to crawl into some dark hole and die. It was so dramatic. But Raidou could somehow sense his friend's suicidal thoughts. He was his best friend after all. He loved Genma with his good and bad sides. A moment earlier he was furiously jealous and if he could he would push Genma into that hole for a painful death. But then he felt his friend's depression and all he wanted was to hold him, kiss him or at least cheer him up.

Naruto wasn't good at preliminaries so he said simply:

"Hokage-sama! Hurry! You must help me to find Kaeru! Please! Come with me!"

"Naruto? Where do you want me to go?"

"First we should go to the lady's rooms because that's where I lost him! And it's a great coincidence because since you'll be there you should see Sasuke! He is there and he is naked! Completely naked! In lady's rooms! And he's unconscious or maybe even drunk! Don't let him to talk out of this one!"

"Take me there immediately!"

Naruto pushed the door open and hit Raidou who was still on the other side of them reaching to touch Genma's shoulder. Genma tried to catch him and they both fell on the floor, but Genma still managed to save Raidou from the pain of a fall. Raidou found himself on top of his best friend facing him. Their bodies were touching and Genma's left hand that supposed to be on Raidou's lower back was actually a bit lower. They've never been so close to each other before.

They didn't notice Naruto and the king walking carefully over their tangled bodies saying "Excuse me…" Since they didn't see them they didn't wonder why or where those two had run in such a hurry. They just laid there feeling their muscled bodies, hot breaths, racing hearts and boiling blood. None of them wanted to stop that but finally Raidou realized how close their faces were. From this proximity his face was probably repulsive. He didn't want Genma to look at his ugly scar. He had no idea that at the same time Genma was dreaming about licking this scar with love and passion. Genma decided that since Raidou did not pull away he must like this situation. He moved his face closer to Raidou's but then Raidou stood up abruptly and turned away to hid his face. Genma let out a disappointed sound which was something between a moan and a sigh. Raidou decided to speak first not letting Genma to say anything about that awkward situation. Raidou wanted to pretend that nothing's happened.

"What's wrong, Genma? Did you hit your head? I'm sorry for crushing on you… CRUSHIG YOU and falling for you… FALLING ON YOU... I'm sorry."

"It's… It's all right… Raidou… I just…"

Genma didn't know what to say. He didn't know what actually could happen if Raidou wouldn't pull back. He looked around and picked what earlier fell from his mouth.

"I just fell on my senbon."

"We've got work to do. Come!… Come on!"

Raidou left not waiting for any answer or for Genma to get up. He just left. He needed some fresh air. He needed to calm down and cool a bit. This stupid infatuation was starting to be painful and this pain was awful. Why did he fell for a guy like Genma? He was popular, sexy and handsome and he was a philanderer. Raidou was nice and scrupulous but also pretty shy and he had his "scar complex". They didn't match. Raidou needed to find someone else. Someone more… average. Someone who would help him to forget about Genma – about his great body, his smell, his hair, his voice, his smile… Raidou knew that it wouldn't be easy.

"Ha! I told you he would be naked!"

"Sasuke…?" Hokage kneeled beside the young Uchiha and touched his face. Naruto didn't like that. He also didn't like the fact that he was there again. He didn't want to see naked Sasuke. It was weird. This boy hated him and he often made Naruto cry when they were kids. And suddenly he appeared out of nowhere and he's so beautiful and… Naruto didn't understand anything and he didn't even want to. He just wanted his Kaeru back so he could leave and not see Sasuke ever again.

"So, where's my Kaeru. I want to go home."

"Naruto… This is your Kaeru. It was Sasuke all along."

Naruto was looking into Sarutobi's eyes for a moment and when he couldn't find there any trace of doubt or joke he believed. Then the tears that were gathering in his eyes finally started to fall. Suddenly he felt like he was ten again – alone and unhappy.

"Please, hokage-sama… Please tell me it's not true. I'll do everything to get my friend back… Please…"

"I'm sorry, Naruto, but it really was Sasukke."

"No it wasn't! Sakura throw my Kaeru on the floor and she hurt him. He must be somewhere! We must help him! He wasn't moving! He needs me now! He needs my help!"

"Sakura… Is that true? Is that why he is unconscious?"

"I… I'm sorry… Hokage-sama! PLEAAAASE help Sasuke!"

"First I need to know, who kissed him?"

"Well…" Sakura didn't know what to say.

"Answer me. It is really important. Which one of you did it?"

Naruto whipped his tears. There was no Kaeru anymore. He lost a friend. It was like some ridiculous fairy tale. He kissed the frog and it turned into… well… a prince. But Naruto wasn't a princess. He wasn't even a girl. And it was Sasuke! His rival and enemy! He didn't want to have anything more to do with him. He lost Kaeru because of that guy. It was like Sasuke would kill his friend…

He finally said:

"It was Sakura."

Sakura made a quiet noise of surprise or maybe something else. Maybe she was just happy. She always dreamed about prince Sasuke and now she got her chance to get him. She would be the one who saved the prince from an awful spell. She would be his heroine and maybe something more! This would be Naruto's goodbye present for her. After all he really cared about her when he was a kid. And maybe that would be also some kid of a punishment for an arrogant prince since he always hated Sakura.

Sarutobi gave him a questioning look and asked:

"Are you sure?"

Naruto shrugged and left the room and then the castle. He didn't wonder where to go. He already knew. There was only one place where he was always welcomed.

Naruto knew Iruka's agenda. Young teacher wasn't very spontaneous person. As always at this time Iruka was in front of the stable and he was brushing his white long haired horse after the ride through the forest. Naruto liked when Iruka was coming back from his horse rides, when he smelled like a wind, sun and trees and around his smiled and relaxed face there were always a few loose strands of his chestnut hair. Naruto liked Iruka's high pony tail but when it was in mess like this he truly loved it. And he loved Iruka. He was his only family. He didn't care that they were not blood related. Their bond was even stronger and better than blood because you can't choose your real relatives. You have to love them because it's your family. Iruka didn't have to love him, but he did and for Naruto it was worth more than anything else in the world.

One look at Naruto's face was enough for Iruka to know that something terrible has happened. Naruto wasn't the one to be depressed without a really good reason. So he didn't even ask. He approached the boy and pulled him into a tight hug. Naruto clung to him like he was going to never let go and then he cried.

They stood there for about an hour. Iruka leaned his back against the tree-trunk and looked at the sun that was setting behind Naruto's back. He wondered what could possibly happen and he did not miss the fact that there was no Kaeru on Naruto's shoulder. Iruka expected that sooner or later Naruto would have to face the loss of his beloved pet. He didn't ask any questions. He didn't need to. The loss of a friend is always painful no matter the circumstances. Besides, Naruto would tell him everything in the right time anyway. So he was waiting patiently for the boy to cry out on his shoulder, to calm down and relax. It took quite a while.

Kakashi decided that those two together against the background of an orange sky were making the most beautiful picture he has ever seen. He activated his Sharingan Eye to save it in his mind forever. He didn't know why Naruto was crying but he wanted to get closer to both them, to cheer Naruto up and join the hug. But he thought that Naruto already had everything he could possibly need: the support of the most loving person in Konoha. He never thought that the said person could also need some strong support and loving arms around him. He didn't know that HE is needed too. He just watched from a distance and he felt like a thief or a stalker. He wanted to have the right to be a part of this.

He looked and listened when Naruto finally spoke:

"Iruka… Remember when you used to sing for me when I was a kid and I cried?"

Instead of answering Iruka started to hum quietly:

"Don't try to live so wise.

Don't cry 'cause you're so right.

Don't dry with fakes or fears,

'Cause you will hate yourself in the end.

You say, "Dreams are dreams.

"I ain't gonna play the fool anymore."

You say, "'Cause I still got my soul."

Take your time, baby, your blood needs slowing down.

Breach your soul to reach yourself before you gloom.

Reflection of fear makes shadows of nothing,

shadows of nothing…."

TBC (And it won't be this sad.)
