FINALLY UPDATED!!
Of Lacking Names
Neji walked into Kakashi's office looking furious. He slammed the door on his way in and threw himself onto the couch. Naruto knew how he felt. He wanted to punch the next idiot who walked through that door smiling. Which happened to be Kakashi himself.
"Hullo Naruto, Neji, Sasuke." he gave them a big smile and Naruto groaned loudly and threw his head back, looking at the ceiling.
"IRUKA " the brown-haired man's head appeared in the doorway.
"Yes Naruto-kun?" Naruto didn't look away from the ceiling and pointed at Kakashi.
"Did he get laid?" he didn't have to look up to know the man blushed. Kakashi just giggled. He sighed again. "Greeeeeaaaaaaaat. This is going to be fun." Iruka hurried off, blushing a million shades of red
and Gaara and Hinata walked in. Naruto looked at Neji. "So, Neji, what's got you pissed?" Neji glared at him.
"Nothing I'm perfectly fine." Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, because people who are 'perfectly fine' go to therapists." Neji jumped up and lunged at him. Naruto grabbed the arms reaching for his throat and threw him to the ground, straddling his hips and pinning his arms above his head.
Neji shivered, Naruto was basically laying on him, his mouth by Neji's ear. He could hear his every breath and it made goose bumps on the pale skin it ghosted over. After a minute of laying there Naruto decided that he was no longer going to try to strangle him and let him get up.
"... Naruto, you do know that Neji is bi...don't you?" Naruto stopped in mid-step and looked back at Kakashi.
"... Well that's just weird and awkward..." he looked down at Neji, who was still lying on the ground, and nudged him with his foot. "I'm not gay, sorry man." Neji snapped out of his trance and got up, glaring at Kakashi.
"What happened to doctor-patient confidentiality?" Kakashi shrugged.
"I can assure you that Gaara and Sasuke are at least bi as well." Gaara glared at him.
"I'm not gay."
"..."
"Sasuke your lack of response is worrying me..." Sasuke looked at Naruto and shrugged.
"You can't really deny something that's true." Naruto turned to Hinata.
". Hinata you aren't a lesbian are you? 'Cuz if you were I'd be the only person in this room that's straight, and that'd be really weird and awkward." Naruto could feel Gaara's glare in the back of his head.
"I'm not gay." Naruto turned to him.
"And I don't believe you. So, Hinata, are you?" he turned back to see her glaring at him. "I'll take that as a no..." Kakashi chuckled and leaned forward.
"As much as I'm enjoying watching this conversation guys... We need to get somewhere beyond establishing your sexual status. So, who wants to go first?" Naruto sighed after a moment of silence.
"Well, don't everybody jump up at once. I'll go." Kakashi nodded to him and Naruto closed his eyes, remembering. "When I was two years old my dad, Arashi, left me on the steps of an orphanage here in town. My
mother had apparently died shortly after she gave birth to me and he was in no shape to take care of me apparently. By the time I was four everyone in that orphanage hated me. They said it was unnatural for me to have blonde hair when my dad was Japanese. About halfway into the year, I was in preschool, I met Gaara." he looked at the other boy out of the corner of his eye before continuing with his eyes closed and face to the ceiling. "When I was six I started getting beaten by the grownups in the orphanage and later that year Gaara moved." he looked at Gaara straight in the face. "I was completely devastated. The one person that understood what I was going through had disappeared and I was left alone. But I'm so happy that you're dad died." he smiled at the red-haired boy beside him and Gaara gave him a small smile in return. Then Naruto returned to his previous position with his head to the ceiling.
"About two months after Gaara left I was put in foster care where I was still beaten daily but I was also raped weekly. By the time I was seven I had developed Kyuubi and when I was eight I ran away from the foster home I had been in." he paused for a second in his story telling, a frown marring his features, seemingly remembering something, but he shook his head and continued. "When I was nine I met Jiraya, a super pervert, on the streets. He took pity on me and gave me money. We kept meeting on the streets and everytime he would give me some money until one day he was walking with his sister, Tsunade-baa-chan, who invited me to go eat with them. I, of course,
did not have enough money to turn down a free hot meal. Baa-chan took a liking to me and when I was ten they got custody of me. That should have been the happy ending but, obviously, it's not. Otherwise I wouldn't be here."
He sighed, remembering how he had met Kakashi and what had happened that night. "I was attacked in an alley on the way home from studying at Kiba, my friend, house when I was eleven. The guys tried to rape me. Kyuubi came out and I'm not completely sure what happened except that he killed all three of them. When I got back in control I was covered in blood and I ran. I ran right into Kakashi, and then he followed me after a short conversation." he nodded at Kakashi, who nodded back, indicating that he remembered. "He spoke to Baa-chan and I started going to him weekly. When I was fourteen I started getting into fights at school and I put quite a few boys in the hospital, and
even a girl or two, after going Kyuubi on their asses. And that leaves us here...nothing interesting happened this last year..." he trailed off and looked like he was contemplating his last statement. Then he opened his eyes and gave them all a big grin.
"...Dobe..." Naruto yelped and covered his head and glared at Sauske.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR ????? "
Sauske looked at him "You tell us all that depressing shit and then give a big smile what the hell is up with that? Shouldn't you be SAD?? " Naruto glared at him.
"What do you want me to do Sasuke-oh-lord -who-knows-all? Get mad? Cry? Punch someone's lights out? CUT MYSELF? Sauske I bet you don't know what its like to be raped every week do you?" by this time Naruto was
in Sauske's face, his voice a low tone. "The reason I smile? I found a way to let go. I found people who truly care and really love me. I definitely found a way to forget about the pain, if only temporarily. A way better outlet than cutting my self." he threw the Uchiha down in disgust, not knowing when he had picked him up by the collar.
"Naruto, you-" Kakashi was cut off by the door slamming as Naruto stormed out. He rubbed his hand over his face and sighed. This hadn't worked out the way he had hoped.
Gaara and Neji sat on different pieces of furniture across the room from each other but both walked to the raven haired teen at the same time and, as if they had planned it from the start, drug him out of the room and outside, throwing him on the ground.
Hinata sat there, stunned. She looked at Kakashi thinking.
What the HELL just happened?
Kakashi apparently noticed her gaze and picked his head up from his hand, giving her a half-hearted smile.
"It's okay Hinata-chan, don't worry about it that's my job. I doubt anything else is going to happen today, so you can go home if you want, just try not to get in Neji and Gaara's way when you go, they might accidentally hit you." Hinata nodded and stood, stretched, and bent back down to grab her bag.
She stopped with her hand on the door and said, soft and almost inaudible, "Until next time..." and stepped out of the
office, missing Kakashi's incredulous look.
outside
Sauske looked up at the livid redhead and the white-eyed boy glowering down at him. "What the hell??" Gaara bent down and picked him up by the collar, slamming him against the wall.
"Why did you do that?" Gaara's voice was low and he was right in Sauske's face.
"Do what -oof" Sasuke glared at Neji. "What the hell? Why are you hitting me??"
Neji shrugged. "Anger management problems, remember?" Sasuke was about to reply when he was slammed into the wall again.
"Answer my question, Uchiha." Gaara said, eyes flashing.
Sasuke looked up at him. "Your little ball of sunshine pisses me off. Happy?" Gaara smirked.
"Very." he dropped the Uchiha and hit him across the face before walking back into the office. Neji kicked the raven-haired boy in the groin and walked after Gaara.
Kakashi walked into the lobby and rested his head on the counter. "Iruka, this isn't working the way it's supposed to. . . ." Iruka looked up from his computer.
"Kakashi, you can't expect everything to happen overnight. You have to give them more time. You of all people should know that . . . ." he walked around the counter and gave Kakashi a hug. "Give it some more time. Everything always works out alright in the end."
