Naruto walked out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his dripping wet body. He rubbed his eyes tiredly before he rested his hands on the counter in front of the big bathroom mirror. He was reminded of the events this morning as he stood there and stared at the scars on his chest. Of course Kakashi had ended up staring at it, everyone did. Even his own gaze was drawn to it when he stood in front of a mirror shirtless. His mind summoned up the phrase the kids at the center used a lot.
"Cross my heart and hope to die." He mumbled to his reflection. If they only knew how close to home that sentence struck.
After a while he pushed himself away from the counter and dried himself before he put on a pair of boxers and jeans. He put his towel over his head and made his way to his room like that. He was halfway to his closet when his bed spoke up in an overly excited voice.
"Guess what man!"
Naruto whirled around too fast, tangling his legs in a pair of jeans he'd left lying on the floor and just as he spotted his best friend sitting on his bed he went crashing to the ground. Kiba stared at him in shock before he burst out laughing. Naruto wondered if he was doomed to be a laughingstock to his friends for the rest of his life, they sure seemed to be laughing at him a lot lately.
"Kiba you ass! Are you trying to give me a heart attack!" The seemingly innocent words were out of his mouth before he knew it. There was an awkward silence as he and Kiba looked at each other. He knew his friend was trying to hide it but he saw the boy glance at his chest a few times.
Kiba had quickly learned that certain things people said or did without realizing it were absolute taboo around Naruto. His friend's remark just now usually didn't fit in that category but it had obviously disturbed Naruto in some way. When Naruto pulled his towel down to hide his scar Kiba knew something was off, Naruto never felt the urge to hide his scar from his friend anymore. The dark haired boy decided his good news could wait until he found out what was bothering the blond.
"Did something happen?" He asked his friend.
Naruto looked at the floor before he answered, another sign that something was wrong, he had the habit of looking at the floor or the ceiling when he lied about his feelings.
"No, nothing happened." Naruto said as he stood up and got a t-shirt from his closet.
Kiba wasn't going to let his friend fall into the same old track. He knew the guy almost better than anyone and Naruto had the habit of pretending to be the happiest person in the world when he obviously wasn't. Technically it probably had something to do with the time he had spent being pushed between foster homes and schools when he was younger, not being able to trust anyone when he so desperately needed it, but personally Kiba just thought his friend was a stubborn jerk who refused to admit he had a problem to begin with.
"Fine, if you're not going to to talk to me about it I'll just go ask Iruka. Maybe he knows why you're acting all weird, at least I'm sure he would like to know that you are behaving a bit strangely." Kiba said as he stood up and prepared to walk out of the room.
"Ok, ok!" Naruto snapped as he rushed to his door and blocked his friends escape route. He put his back against the door and slid down it slowly with a heavy sigh. He sat hunched over for a little while before he finally spoke, his voice solemn and barely above a whisper. "I just hate it that's all."
Well it was a start but Kiba still didn't know what was bothering his friend. "Hate what?"
"This." Naruto said as he touched the left side of his chest with his right hand. "The scar... I know I shouldn't think about it and I'm trying so hard but it's nearly impossible when it's all everyone ever notices... Stupid isn't it? I have six scars on my face and people hardly seem to care at all but as soon as I take my shirt off it's all they can see."
"What brought this on?" Kiba asked thoughtfully. He had a feeling something more than his friends panic the other day had happened.
"Kakashi was here this morning. I couldn't see what he was thinking but he was staring at it pretty intently." Naruto said as he stopped staring into his lap and instead fixed his eyes on his orange hoodie that was lying on the floor next to his friends feet.
Kiba looked strangely at Naruto for a few moments, scratching his head in confusion. "Uhu.. I thought you might be getting pretty desperate but I never thought you were that desperate. What did you do, invite him over, sit on his lap and use the clich� pick up line 'Do you want to see my scars'?"
Naruto looked up at his friend indignantly. "I did not! Turns out he's an old friend of Genma's from high school and he asked him to take over Iruka's classes."
"You're shitting me?" Kiba said laughing. "So how on earth did he see you topless? Have a little moment in the locker room?"
"No! I walked down stairs without a shirt." Naruto had no desire to tell his friend he had been pants less as well.
Kiba stopped laughing when he saw the dejected look on his friends face. He sat down on the floor where he'd been standing and looked at his friend more closely. "Look, Kakashi has never showed any signs of disliking you no matter what. As far as I know he didn't show any reaction to your name, he's never glared at you or treated you badly in any way if you don't count the pranks. If I have to be honest I'd say he actually likes you. You saw how he acted with Sasuke and his fan club, if someone gets on his nerves he has no trouble with letting them know exactly what he feels about them and the once he does like he treats indifferently or with a little bit of interest at best. I can assure you he would not buy food for just anyone at the cafeteria or go out of his way to tease someone if he wasn't interested in the person. I know you hate it but not everyone who stares at your scar does it out of disgust or pity."
Naruto sighed again. "I know, it's just an anomaly that draws the eye. If I didn't have any scars I'm sure people would just stare at my blond hair or blue eyes because they're rare." He said as he rolled his eyes. "I'm just sick of it! I wish they could just stare at something else for a change."
As he finished the sentence his eyes landed on his orange hoodie again, it was the one he had designed himself with the burning sun logo. He stared at the design thoughtfully, not hearing the reply from Kiba. If you had a white canvass with a stain in one corner what was the best way to draw peoples attention away from it, he thought. You could always just paint over it but the stain would still be there underneath and if anyone cared to look closely enough they might be able to make it out. The best way to draw peoples attention away from anything was putting something even greater on display. If you painted something big and magnificent in another corner of the picture then people might not notice the stain as much anymore.
"I got an idea." Naruto said suddenly, cutting Kiba off mid sentence.
"Uh.. Alright?" His friend said confused.
"I'm getting a tattoo." Naruto said as he stood up and grabbed his sweater off the floor.
Kiba sat there dazed for a minute before he looked up at his friend. "You are?" Was the only thing he managed.
"Yeah, I am. Let's go." Naruto said as he pulled his sweater on and grabbed his wallet of his desk.
"You're going now?" Kiba asked his friend, a bit shocked at how the situation was turning out.
"Yep, if we go now we should be able to take the train into town before the tattoo parlor closes."
"Well... not that I care about you getting a tattoo or anything, it's your decision and all, but don't you need a permission from your parents to get one? You're not 18 yet."
Naruto stared at his friend clearly annoyed. His friend who not only had to be blessed with a growth spurt when Naruto kept being short but also had to have been born earlier in the year than him and was therefore already 18. "Sometimes I almost hate you."
"It's not my fault." Kiba retorted.
"Yeah, that's why I said almost." Naruto looked at his calendar, it was only about 2 weeks until his birthday but he didn't want to wait until then, he'd made up his mind now for Christs sake. There was no way he could ask Iruka for permission, not that his father would be against him getting a tattoo he would just ask him why he wanted one in the first place and why he didn't just wait until his birthday. Naruto was tempted to call his pervert of a godfather and ask him to come along but the guy was probably out of town again on one of his "business trips" so Naruto was really left with only one option.
"Do you think your mom can come with us?" He asked his friend. There was no way he was asking Genma to come with him either since everything he told his older dad was later found out by his younger dad. Genma always said he didn't want to lie to his lover but Naruto knew the truth. The guy was a horrible liar and a coward when faced with Iruka and therefore told him everything the man might want to know, especially concerning Naruto, as soon as he knew about it so he didn't have to face him when the younger man inevitably found out about the matter later.
"Haha, we haven't done that in a while have we." Kiba's mom,Tsume, was, like Kiba's family in general, a bit wild and free spirited. Often when Iruka had banned Naruto from doing something he needed parental permission to do Kiba's mom had taken both boys and told everyone Naruto was her adopted son. "We can go ask her if you're sure you want to do this. Then I can show you what I bought today too!" Kiba said bursting with enthusiasm.
Both boys got out of the room and hurried down stairs. Naruto called out to Iruka once they got down to the front room that he was going over to Kiba's for a while. His only answer was the volume of the TV increasing, apparently Iruka was hooked on a new soap and didn't want anyone to disturb him. As Naruto and Kiba ran across their back yards the blond boy couldn't wait any longer.
"So what did you buy?"
Kiba just smirked at him. "You'll see." Not being able to contain himself he had to give his friend a clue. "Let's just say we'll never have to worry about catching the train again."
"You didn't." Naruto said shocked. "You bought a car?"
"Yep." Kiba said grinning as they ran past the corner of his house. "Ta-da!" He said as he threw his hands up and pointed at his car.
Naruto stared. Then he looked around and stared again. "Please tell me you car is actually parked behind that one."
"No that's it." Kiba said cheerfully.
Naruto stared at the old Dodge A100 that was standing in front of Kiba's house. The very old, paint faded and rust filled, and did he mention Old, minibus monstrosity.
"You want me to go to school with you in that!" Naruto said, like Kiba had just asked him to accompany him to the prom wearing a pink wedding dress.
"Oi, no dissing the car man. It was cheap and in good condition. Just a few fixes here and there and a new paint job and this will turn into the ultimate chick magnet." Kiba said grinning as he walked over to the car and embarrassed Naruto even more by hugging the hood of it.
"Oh yeah I can see how all the old hippie grannies will swoon over it." Naruto said. Not wanting to put too much of a damper on his friends mood, it was his first car after all, he added somewhat cheerfully. "Well at least it's got space, we could gather up some people for a road trip now."
"Exactly!" Kiba enthused.
After showing Naruto everything from the windshield wipers to the rear door handle they finally headed inside to talk to Kiba's mom. They found her, along with Kiba's sister, bustling about in the kitchen filling up dozens of bowls with dog food. The boys barely had to mention their request before the woman was pulling them out the door almost more excited about it than they were. She kept crying about how her boys were becoming men and that she supported them all the way. And so Naruto found himself sitting slightly dazed in Kiba's new car on his way to the tattoo parlor with the two Inuzuka ladies chatting excitedly in the back, Kiba's sister had decided to tag along as well.
x.x.x.x.x
Naruto walked into the tattoo parlor closely followed by the Inuzuka clan. The man behind the counter was huge and almost every visible part of his skin was covered in blue tattoos, the man obviously had a thing for the color because his hair was colored blue as well. He looked up as the bell rang and greeted them with a surprisingly cheerful yet gruff voice. "What can I do for you."
Tsume walked up to the counter and gave her best grin, one that was probably meant to be nice but always ended up looking slightly psychotic. "Yes my son here wants a tattoo."
The guy immediately looked over at Kiba. "I see, did you have anything specific in mind?"
"Huh?" Kiba looked away from the displays of tattoos lining the walls. "Not me, him." He said as he pointed over at Naruto.
The tower of a man directed his gaze over to Naruto and regarded him thoughtfully, he then looked over at Tsume again and then finally at the two Inuzuka siblings. "Let me guess." He said. "You're not 18 yet, you want a tattoo but you can't get permission from your parents so you got your friends mom to help out. Is that it?"
Naruto froze, thankfully Kiba's mom was a quick thinker so she stepped in. She leaned over the counter and beckoned the man to do the same, once he was closer to her she whispered.
"Look, my blond boy over there... He's adopted, I haven't had the heart to tell him about it. He just thinks he takes after my late husband. So if you could try not to draw too much attention to the fact that he's a bit different I'd greatly appreciate it."
"Oh jeez I'm sorry." The guy said guiltily. He straightened up and looked over at Naruto again. "So.. uh.. did you have anything specific in mind?"
Naruto, who had been standing next to Kiba looking at a picture of a huge dragon, walked up to the counter. "Yeah I was hoping you could do this." He said as he took of his sweater and showed the man the design on it's back.
"You make this?" The man grunted as he eyed the hoodie.
"Yeah." The blond boy said a bit defensively.
The man studied the design more closely, tracing it with his blue fingers as he looked it over. "Cool." He finally said. "You're pretty good. So where do you want it?"
"I was thinking of putting it here." Naruto said as he rubbed his stomach with his left hand.
"You sure? That's gonna hurt." Naruto just looked at the man with one eyebrow raised. "Yeah, yeah. Be a tough guy, but when you're screaming for your mommy in the chair don't say I didn't warn you." The man handed the sweater back to the boy. "I guess it would be best to let Hidan do this for you." He mumbled more to himself than Naruto. He turned around and yelled down a short hall in the back. "Hidan! You have a customer!"
"Fucking hell Kisame! Get some other fucking shithead to do it, I'm busy!" Came the annoyed answer.
The tall man rolled his eyes and mumbled to himself. "Jeez how many times a day must that guy pray to that stupid thing." Then he yelled at the man again. "Just get your ass out here and take care of the customer!"
Naruto leaned to the side and glanced down the hallway as he heard a door burst open. A pissed off looking man with gray hair reaching his shoulders came marching down the hall and into the reception.
"Ok, ok. So which one of you fuckers wants the fucking tattoo?" He asked angrily.
Naruto was tempted to point at Kiba but decided that since he was here he wasn't going to back down now. Besides, that Kisame dude was already pointing at him.
"Fine, fine. Come on." Hidan said impatiently. "Man such a pain."
As Naruto followed him down the hall he couldn't help but be reminded of his friend Shikamaru. All the man needed to do was tone down the anger a little bit and mumble "So troublesome." and they would be exactly the same.
They passed a couple of closed doors before they came to the room Hidan had been in. The guy ushered him into the chair and took the sweater from Naruto to look at the design. "Well that's gonna fucking hurt." He said a little too cheerfully as he started getting everything ready. "So you wanna get it all in one go or do you want to come back again?"
"All in one go." Naruto said firmly.
"Great." The man smirked. "Be sure to scream if it hurts, I love it when they do that."
x.x.x.x.x
Two hours later Naruto walked a little unsteadily back to the front of the shop, fighting the urge to rub his sore stomach. The first thing he noticed was his heavily grinning friend who now had a bandage on each cheek.
"What the hell happened to you?"
"What? I got bored waiting for you so I decided to get some ink done too." Kiba said gleefully.
"On your face? I hate to break it to you but no matter what you do it's not gonna look any better. What on earth did your mom say about it?" He asked his friend.
"I believe her exact words were Well shit I'm getting one too. My sister got them as well."
If Naruto didn't already know that his friends family was a bit crazy he'd definitely think so now. He walked up to the counter and paid the giant blue man. Kisame grinned at him with surprisingly sharp teeth. "Didn't scream at all huh? Bet Hidan wasn't too happy about that. Be sure to come again if you want some more work done. Also if you have some more of those designs don't hesitate to come by and show them to us, we'd pay you for them if you're willing to let us use them."
"Sure, I'll think about it." Naruto said a bit surprised, he'd mainly used his designs for his own clothes before and no one had ever really complimented them. If he could make money from the doodles he made in his free time he'd definitely give it some thought.
Once they got out of the store and headed for the car Kiba stepped up beside him and put his arm around his shoulder. "Man you should have seen the guy who did my tats, his face was covered in piercings, the ones my mom and sister got looked pretty normal though. Oh and I swear there's a guy in there related to Sasuke, except this one was even more stuck up and anti-social." Kiba blabbed on before he got more serious. "So. How are you now? Feeling any better?"
"Yeah." Naruto said with a content smile. "I know it's crazy but.. I don't know.. It's just something I felt like I had to do you know? I can't really describe it but I feel like I've taken all the anxiety I've had for the last few days and just sealed them away."
"Well that's good then man." Kiba said while he studied his friend closely. "I still wish you would talk to someone once in a while. Sealing something away isn't going to make it disappear you know, it's still going to be there waiting to get out." The brown haired boy sighed. "If you ever, and I mean pounding on my door at 3 o'clock in the morning ever, need anyone to talk to you know I'm there for you. And if it means you'll talk to me I swear I won't tell Iruka about it too."
Naruto embarrassed his friend slightly when he hugged the boy on the middle of the sidewalk. "Thank you, but I'm fine really." When that statement was met by a stern look, which was quite comical since Kiba was also blushing profoundly, Naruto added. "Yeah, yeah. Maybe not right this very moment or today and tomorrow but it's getting there. I feel much better now at least than I did earlier today."
"That's good man." There was an awkward silence for a moment before Kiba continued. "Sooo... Mind letting go of me now, people are starting to stare and unlike you I'm not about to come out of any closet any time soon."
"Oh sorry." Naruto said as he let go of his friend, he grinned and rubbed the back of his head nervously. "Hey where is your mom and sister anyway?"
"Oh they went to that store over there." Kiba said as he pointed to a run down building. The old and broken neon sign over the door and the shady advertising on the otherwise boarded up windows clearly marking it as an adult store.
"I... Did so not need to know that." Naruto whined. "Let's wait in the car."
"Haha, I'm just kidding idiot. They're in the supermarket across the street getting us some soda. You should have seen the look on your face dude, you are such a prude."
"Oh yeah, I'd like to see you get through a sex-ed lesson from Iruka with a straight face. He felt compelled to have a little talk with me once he found out I was gay... And I'm pretty sure he was going by personal experience."
"Ok, ok, ok. You win. Please do not say anything more."
Naruto just laughed as he got in the car, his friend just never learned that Naruto would always win in this kind of an argument.
x.x.x.x.x
That night when Naruto was getting ready to go to bed he stood in front of his mirror. He slowly unwrapped the bandages from around his torso like Hidan had told him to, the tattoo couldn't be bandaged for long in order for it to heal properly. After he'd finished he stood there, one hand holding one end of the bandages and the other slowly and carefully tracing the pattern on his stomach. He didn't know what had compelled him to get the tattoo but he didn't regret it.
An image of a nine tailed fox flashed through his mind. It all started with a tattoo and hopefully he had ended it all with one as well.
