Naruto panted hard as he ran through the park trail. His head phones bouncing on his chest Panic at the disco playing in his ear. His legs were burning and he was barely getting any breath but he continued pushing. His black shorts and orange jogging shirt clinging to him because of sweat. He ignored it as sweat ran down his face. More concerned that he had run holes into his shoes again from all his morning jogs.

Which he never missed almost religiously seeing as it gave him a since of calm and allowed him to think back on his life. Especially after recent... events that caused him great distress. The type of thing these jogs were needed for. He could here his Ex voice in his head now.

"I want to come home Naruto! Let me come home! Please!"

Naruto allowed the memory to play out.

"Get out! Just get out!" The memory Naruto said to his pleading Ex who walked out the front door and closed it shut. A crying (memory) Naruto ran up the steps to his and his hus... ex husbands room. He closed the door shut it and leaned his back against it. A pained expression on his face. He wailed deeply not being able to muster the thought that he might wake his son in the next room.

Naruto face was hard as stone as he continued to run while his mind played the memory over for him for the thousandth time since it happen. His mind shifted to another memory.

"Don't tell me dads' not coming back! Don't tell me that!" Naruto's son said standing up from the table storming off. Naruto reached out for him "Konohamaru wait!"

Naruto's breath had evened as the memories played out. The seriousness of them seeming to have his attention so much he couldn't focus enough to breath heavily. He didn't even notice the burning in his legs as he began running up a steep small hill. He came to a stop once he reached the top. He placed his hands on his hip as he gave his body a short break. The painful memories overwhelming him.


Naruto walked into the barn with his best friend Ino Yamanaka.

"Naruto I love you like a brother, but you have got to get those divorce papers signed and move on!" She said as she walked with him a hand on his shoulder looking at him with affection and worry for her friend. They walked out the barn and into the house. They made their way into the kitchen fixing themselves a cup of tea. They sat across from each other on the wood kitchen counter. Ino looked deep into Naruto's broken eyes leaning close to him.

"It's been nine months. What do you got second thoughts?" Ino asked never breaking eye contact. Naruto shrugged rubbing the back of his neck with one hand.

"I'm having dinner.". He voice a little to quiet to be casual.

"With Neji?" Ino said with realization before she her face formed a disappointed look as she looked away briefly huffing out in clear distaste "Oh you pussy!" She walked towards the counter in her disappointment.

"For Konohamaru's birthday!" Naruto said trying to defend himself. "Honestly Ino sometimes I think your rooting against us!" He said with a scrunched up brow.

"Who's us? You and me or you and him? Because I kind of thought that was done." Ino said making her way back to the counter after grabbing to cups for their tea. Naruto's face showed confusion like he couldn't understand why she didn't get why he was trying to make this work.

"He's the father of my kid." Naruto said as if that explained everything.

"Who cheats with a secretary every time he goes to the home office." Ino countered trying to make Naruto understand he was better off without him. "Brings a whole new meaning to the San Francisco treat." Ino said.

Naruto looked up at her with a tired look "Not funny." Naruto said shaking his head slightly.

"He said she smelled like chocolate chip cookies." Ino said leaning on the counter again. Naruto dropped his spoon back into his bowl of oat meal after that. A disgusted look on his face.

"Goodbye." Naruto said with no real hostility to Ino picking up his bowl and walking away to through it out.

"I'm just quoting his email." Ino said while pouring her self a cup of the finally boiled tea. Naruto turned back to her quickly after throwing away his food.

"You don't have to! Okay?" Naruto said stressed out. "Because it's burned in my mind. Forever!" Naruto finished. Ino looked at him sadly.

Naruto sat down at the near by table. Stress eating the food he was about to throw away. "And for your information he doesn't go to San Francisco anymore. So stop bringing it up. It's not fair." He said taking and angry bite of his food.


(Their in the city now in their family house. I don't really know why they have one in the country and one in the city they mainly live in. The movie never said so just go with me on this one.)

"Tada! Make a wish." Naruto yelled out for Konohamaru presenting him with a birthday cake fresh out the oven that Naruto had prepared earlier that day.

"Happy birthday!" Neji said clapping along with his soon-to-be-divorced husband. But a genuine smile was on his face. Naruto had not even so much as wanted to see his face since his stupid mistake of cheating on him. But now not only did he let him in the house. They were being happy and pleasant together as a family.

"You made that!" Neji said pointing to the cake with a cheerful smile at Naruto. He had missed his cooking especially his sweets. Naruto allowed himself to smile and answer with a slight giggle he knew that look. It was the same one his Neji would always come home with after a long business trip and would miss his cooking. That was really sweet until Naruto had found out what he was really doing on those business trips.

He answered happily anyway not letting his dark thoughts ruin his son's birthday. "Of course!" Naruto said happily. Before he could dig in Neji remembered the present he got his son. Neji stood up suddenly urging his son to do the same.

"Come on. I've been waiting all day. I want you to see this." He said with a big smile. He walked to the other side of the table where their was a large shape wrapped in baby blue wrapping paper and a dark blue bow on top.

"Okay." Konohamaru said trying to hide his excitement over tonight. But the tone was still quite clear in his voice.

"I'll help you." Neji said taking the other side of the present so that they could rip it all off at once.

"One, two, three! Ta-da!" They said together ripping it off to reveal a brand new computer set. With two screens and a new pair of head phones resting on one.

"Oh, my God! Dad!" Konohamaru said happily unable to contain his happiness anymore. He had wanted a computer for years.

"Huh?" Neji said a big smile on his own face at being able to make his son happy. Konohamaru stared to walk around it touching the various parts noting their smoothness.

"It's like a high powered gaming tower with an arctic cooler." He said completely geeking out. "And you made this?" He said in amazement he knew his father was good at these things but damn he'd never really seen his work for himself.

Neji smacked his lips a little in pride before answering. "Three weekends in a row. Triple processor." Konohamaru gave Neji a sudden hug.

"Dad, thank you so much." Naruto watched the scene happily. It reminded him of when they were a really happy family and all the good times they shared. 'Yeah until he cheated on you.' Naruto's pessimistic side said ruining the moment for him.

"Let's do cake." He said cheerfully trying to get his mind off of it. He cut the vanilla white frosting cake with a large knife while Neji and Konohamaru took their seats smiles still in place. Neji started conversation first. "What are you guys doing for Labor day?" Naruto continued to cut the cake as he answered casually.

"I don't know. why?" he asked.

"I thought we'd go camping like the old days" Neji said.

"Mom too?" Konohamaru asked hopefully.

Neji smiled at him "Yeah, of course. That's what I was thinking.". Naruto mouth opened and closed at that before deciding not to speak out at that and just put a tight lipped smile in place. "Yeah that sounds like fun." Konohamaru said not noticing his mother's look. (A/N: Despite the fact Naruto is male Konohamaru refers to him as mother because that's the role he took on.).

"We could catch fish..." He gestured between him and his dad "...and mom you could cook it." He said finally turning to his mom to really look at him for the first time that night.

"Yeah that sounds like a lot of fun." Naruto said sarcastically putting a piece of cake on his son's plate.

"Please?" Konohamaru said with a pleading look. He really just wanted them to do something together as a family like they use to. Konohamaru didn't notice his hand fell on the cake while begging. Naruto chuckled at that

"Look at you, you got icing everywhere." Naruto laughed out pointing at the mess. Neji huffed out a laugh too. "Go clean up." Naruto said. Konohamaru smile laughing a little embarrassed. He was way to old to still be doing that.

"Okay. All right. Be right back." He said in a hurry rushing to the bathroom. As he was leaving Neji took this opportunity to convince Naruto to come on the trip.

"Come on, what do you say?" Neji asked. Naruto sat slowly in his chair having given everyone a piece of cake.

"Um... When were you thinking of going?" He asked getting comfortable. Neji leaned back in his chair as well.

He tried to remember his schedule. "I get back from a business trip the Thursday before labor day." He explain. Naruto immediately became untrusting.

"Business trip?" He asked with a now blank face. Neji unknowing of his mood change continued.

"Yep. Get back Thursday night. We'll leave, three days.".

"Where?" Naruto asked.

"That old cabin we used to go to Mammoth Lakes!" Neji said the last part really loud hoping his son would hear him.

"That sounds great!" They heard being yelled back from the bathroom. Neji pointed towards the voice with a smile towards Naruto. Who simply huffed of breath of exasperation.

"No, I meant where is your business trip?" It suddenly got very quit as Neji probed his cheek with his tongue.

"Let me guess. San Francisco?" Naruto said as Neji finally noticed the angry look on his face.

"It's work. It's not what you think." Neji tried to say. Naruto ignored what he said and continued his questions.

"Does she still work there?" He asked.

"Naruto it doesn't matter." Neji said desperately a sad look on his face.

"Doesn't matter?" Naruto said standing angrily. To prevent himself from hitting Neji he just continued to cut the already abused cake. Before they could say anymore Konohamaru walked in.

"Mom?" He called.

"Yeah?" Naruto responded pleasantly.

"So you coming or not?" He said referring to the camping trip. Naruto walked over to his son placing a hand on his shoulder with a kind and cheerful smile. Complete opposite from how he was really feeling.

"Mmm... You know what? That's the weekend before school starts. So you know, you guys should just keep it a father son trip. You'll have a blast." He said trying to convince his son to just go without him.

"Okay." He conceded.

"Okay." Naruto said back before walking out the room and into the bathroom where he cried trying not to make to much noise so his son wouldn't hear him.


Morning

"Konohamaru! Honey we gotta go." Naruto screamed from the garage were he was lifting the garage door to let the car out. When Konohamaru didn't answer the first time Naruto tapped on the garage side window that looked out the yard to get his attention.

Konohamaru walked pass the window saying "I know." . Once he was in the garage he noticed the door wasn't going all the way up. It kept going half way then down a little then half way up again.

"Mom, the door is jammed." He complained. Naruto looked behind himself sighing in frustration. That door had been acting up for weeks, but had been good the past couple of days. So just when he thought he was in the clear this happens again. Kind of like his marriage when you think about it... No... No negative thoughts today Naruto! Be happy for once Damn it!

"Mom, look, can we just forget it? Because I don't want to see another doctor, okay? He's not gonna tell you anything different." Konohamaru pleaded with a almost tired look on his face.

"He is the best allergists in the valley, okay? We're going." Naruto said firmly leaving no room for argument.

They once again noticed the annoyingly jammed garage door which had yet to stop moving. Naruto turned towards it an irritated look on his face. "You know what? I'll lift the door, you pull the cord." He said getting under the door.

"Okay, Okay" Konohamaru said positioning himself by the car to pull the cord. This was a almost regular routine which he had hoped was over. "Okay, you ready mom?" He asked on top of the car. Naruto was struggling to keep the door up.

"Just pull it up!" he said desperately. The door was made out of a thick metal rather than the usual material of one. "It's too heavy! It's too heavy!" Naruto shouted. "Pull it up baby!" Naruto called out when a man walked up and helped him lift the garage door that was just about to crush him.

"I got it." The person said lifting it almost with complete ease. Naruto looked over at him.

He was dressed in a regular white T-shirt with some faded blue jeans. He was about a head taller than Naruto. He had large muscles and a strong physic. His hair was raven black and kind of short but not so much so that Naruto couldn't run his fingers through it. He had pitch black eyes and almost porcelain pale face. To put it simply he was gorgeous. Naruto was practically gaping until he caught himself thankfully the handsome man hadn't notice.

"I can fix that for you if you want." He said still looking up at the garage door he just pushed up before turning and facing Naruto. Naruto sucked in a quite nervous breath when those eyes turned to him.

"And you are?" he asked politely.

A/N: I know a bit of a cliff hanger I know. But I bet you can't guess who he is.

Konohamaru Whispers: It's Sasuke!
