Where we last left off Sakura and Ino had finally came face to face with blow to blow leading to her running across the road with Naruto getting the repercussions of her actions. What happens next? Enjoy the first chapter as the ride continues!


Deceive

Time stopped immediately after Naruto's words touched Ino's ears. She couldn't believe he had asked her those exact questions. The same man she gave her all to in building a relationship, true love, a family and a home, was now all questioned with the simple cold words of who are you?

The coldness of the doorknob touching the tip of her fingers immediately woke Ino out of her trance and slowly turned to see the stranger laying in the hospital bed with a concerned look on his face. She stepped closer towards him, ignoring Shikamaru who was also looking at her in shock but resisting breaking the awkward silence between them.

Ino continued walking to the edge of the bed until she felt the soft cushion in her hands, "Wha-what did you ask me?" Ino asked Naruto who stared at her as if she was a nobody in his life anymore. As if their whole marriage had never existed. Ino had come to terms that Sakura had ultimately won the war, not Naruto's heart, but the win over breaking up the relationship she had with Naruto.

"I asked who are guys? And why am I here?" Naruto questioned once more, a bit of stress ringing trough his words as he gripped the bed-sheets. "Am I in a hospital? How the hell did I get here?!" Naruto began to raise his voice and proceed to move from the bed but Shikamaru finally stepped in and took hold of his arm before Naruto snatched it away from me.

"Don't fucking touch me! I don't know you, don't grab me!" Naruto yelled, alerting the doctor in the hallway to rush into the room immediately. Naruto's eyes almost bulged out of his sockets when he saw how fast the doctor managed to come in and detain him on the bed.

Naruto started to put up a fight and throwing fists at both Shikamaru and the innocent doctor who dodged every hit. Ino's gasps and cries were all being held in together with the palm of her hand but enough was enough for her seeing her long loved husband behaive this way, "Naruto, stop!" Ino yelled, running over to the side of his bed and throwing her arms around Naruto's neck.

"Naruto, you have to remember me. Remember us? We are married." Ino cried into his shoulder, feeling his lifeless body make absolutely no remorse for her affection. "We have a son together, we named him after you. We go to the park with him and eat vanilla ice cream with chocolate sprinkles on top, your favorite, Naruto" Ino wailed more into his shoulder, feeling her sobs and tears begin to drench into the white fabric of his hospital gown.

"You don't remember anything at all, Naruto? Tell me you remember something, anything at all" Ino stepped back from him to observe his face that just staired blankly right back at her as if he had no soul in him, "Anything, Naruto?"

"No, I'm sorry, I don't" Naruto replied in a softer and more relaxed tone from how he had spoken to Shikamaru. Sure, he may not have known who she was or what the circumstance were, but he had a heart for a poor defenseless woman claiming to have a marriage with him.

Ino regained control of her sobs and turned around, rushing out of the room before breaking down outside in the hallway. Giving the wall a huge hit with a full forced fist, Ino cried herself into her hands wishing everything could go back how it used to be. Unaware she would soon find something even more deadly in her way.

"This was exactly what I was afraid of, amnesia" The doctor spoke sadly, seeing Ino fly out of the room he just focused his attention towards Shikamaru. "The car accident he has been in seems to have damaged his memory, now certain cases are very tricky-"

"What's that suppose to mean? Has he lost his memory completely?" Shikamaru asked, looking down at his best friend for years that was now becoming a long-lost person to him. The memory loss won't only affect Ino, but Shikamaru as well who has hope of some type of recovery.

"Certain cases seem permanent but sometimes the patient recovers and remembers bits of their lives-" The doctor stated, placing a hand on Naruto's limp shoulder, "Placing the missing puzzle pieces of together and living a regular live with most of the important parts of their memories still in tact. It's hard to say what will happen-" He looked down at Naruto who just continued looking at the door that Ino had just bum rushed out of.

"Time will only tell, show him around town and his home, even his job maybe" The doctor made his words seem second guessable but his words were the only hope to hang onto at this moment, time will only have to unravel to see the outcome.

After the doctor told Shikamaru that Naruto would have another day to rest here at the hospital before they could take him home, Shikamaru turned his back against Naruto and tried his best to fight his tears from clogging his eyes. He clenched his fists and raised his face towards the ceiling lights, "This is all my fault, Naruto."

"It's all my fault, I shouldn't even have gone to your house" Shikamaru's guilt began to kick in as well, remembering the main reason he was even heading to the Uzumaki household. Ino. He was on his way to find answers to what this feeling was inside him that was growing more and more after his kiss with Ino. This entire car accident was a sign of his actions being wrong from the start, he should've never crossed the line. Now he paid the price.

Silence filled up the room with the confused blond having absolutely no words to say to him, he was lost himself in his own emotions on how he should feel to how he was actually feeling. "You see, Naruto, I was on my way to your house because-" Shikamaru started confessing before Ino walked back into the room, opening the door with a quickness that startled both men in the room.

"Shikamaru, can I have a private conversation-" Ino began, looking soulless into Shikamaru's eyes with bloodshot eyes after crying herself almost into a coma in the hallway, "With Naruto, that is" She focused her attention towards Naruto who gave her the same look right back.

Without a second thought, Shikamaru made his way out of the room quiet as possible and closing the door behind him. Ino took a deep breath and moved the strands of her blond hair behind her ear and made her way over to the couch next to the bed that Naruto sat in. She placed her hands down on her thighs and looked at the plain pattern of the white floor, trying to find a pattern to her own words.

The tension in the room could have been cut with a simple butter knife with the way it was flowing, as if two shy teenagers meeting up together for the first time on a date were sitting in the same room waiting for one to talk. Ino chipped away at her nail polish, took another deep breath and finally broke the ice.

"So, Naruto-" Ino's voice shook, trying to support it from cracking, "You really don't remember me? Like, this isn't a sick joke?" Ino asked, hoping he would bust out in hysterical laughter and laugh at her pain even if it was a cruel joke.

"No, I really don't know what is going on-" Naruto slowly rolled his eyes, annoyed of having to answer this question over and over with no one seeming to believe his word, "I wish I could tell you what you wanted to hear, but I don't even have a clue anymore" Naruto interlocked his fingers and looked down at the bed sheets again, wanting to wake-up the person she wanted to be in-front of her.

"But Naruto, look-" Ino ran her hand into her shirt and down the top of her bra where she pulled out a small golden locket in the shape of a heart, "I want you to look at this, it belonged to my grandmother who gave it to my mom, and now it's in my hands, Naruto" Ino stood up from the couch and proceeded to walk next to his bed and handed the golden lock to him. She felt his warm hand underneath her palm as he grabbed it, she slowly brushed her fingertips off his skin. Feeling the bit of him pressed against her own flesh was enough for her knees to buckle but the trance quickly broke once she felt the lock completely off her hand.

Naruto took the gold heart-shaped locked into his fingers and twirled it around, observing it closely and noticing it had a small opening lock to it. He looked up at Ino standing over him who nodded her head in approval, wanting him to open it. It took him second to bust open the lock open, seeing two sides of a heart. A small heart-shaped mirror and a cut out photo of a family. His family.

"What the.." Naruto's own feelings got the best of him as he noticed the picture of what seemed to be Ino and himself holding a little blond baby boy. The same little blond baby boy who had a replica of his own features and looks attached to his little face. Ino clenched both her hands together behind her back, hoping that he would have remembered something by the photograph.

Naruto took a look at his own reflection and observed his face carefully. The upper right side of his forehead had small stitches with dried blood around it, his blond hair was a bit messy with the spikes in all different directions and his eyes seemed to be extremely lifeless at the moment. He looked back over at the small family photo and almost felt crushed at the fact that the baby in the photo was really his. The same baby he didn't remember having no relationship with or holding him in his arms.

"Naruto, do you remember?" Ino asked once again with an even more shook voice this time around, "Naruto?" Ino asked again after Naruto closed the golden locket and placed it back in her hands without even looking at her. "Naruto answer me, do yo-"

"No, I don't! Can you please stop asking me that fucking question!" Naruto barked back, making Ino jump out of her skin a couple of steps back from his bed. Naruto removed his sheets off his lower body to finally see his bruised up legs that he moved off the bed and grunted in pain as his body pain began to kick in as he moved with a faster pace.

"Naruto, stop! You need to rest, this isn't good for you!" Ino tried to stop him but Naruto wasn't having it anymore, he wanted answers, he wanted his old life back. Naruto stood to his feet and looked at the IV attached into his arm and snatched the needle out with a loud yell at the receiving end of it. He proceeded to start throwing all the trays of hospital equipment around the room and slammed his fist into the wall behind the bed.

Ino rushed over to the other side of the bed and wrapped her arms around his to stop and comfort him but to no avail did he do so, "Please, leave me alone!" Naruto snatched his arm away from Ino and slammed his other fist into the wall and lowered his head against the cracked wall where Ino heard low cries coming from him, unaware of the doctors rushing into the room with a needle in hand that was injected into Naruto's upper arm while the other doctors tried to hold him down.

The blond beauty couldn't believe the scene happening before her, the same loving man that made love to her up to three times a night who also caressed his son's stomach had become a horrifying monster. After a minute of the liquid injected into Naruto's arm, his body slowly went limp and lifeless and the doctors proceeded to place him back on his bed.

The room remained silence for a second after the doctor placed the IV back in his arm and checked his heart-rate and breather. The doctor made his way over to Ino who had her arms crossed over her chest with her finger tip in her mouth, chewing at her nail in nervousness and discomfort.

"I think you should wait outside, get some rest. This is sometimes very difficult for patients to cope with at times, feeling lost and vulnerable, you know?" The doctor rubbed his hand on Ino's arm for comfort, getting no type of expression back besides watching her look at Naruto who seemed to be fading farther into a memory now.

"Okay, can I just have one more minute alone?" Ino requested, seeing the doctor nod his head and head out of the room with the doctors and nurses that had restrained Naruto from further destroying the room. Shikamaru was making his way out of the room as well but before he closed the door behind him, he turned to hear Ino speak at Naruto.

"I know you can't remember anything for now, Naruto-" Ino got close to his limp body and locked fingers with his hand, "But you are a fighter, you will recover from this, everything will go back to how it was" Ino managed to hold in her tears this time around, having faith that her husband would recover well and remember her and her son all to well.

Shikamaru watched the scene without Ino knowing he was in the room, he had a certain taste of disgust at what he was hearing but at the same time he was rooting for Naruto. What she had told him when he was in the hospital was completely different from what she was telling the unconscious Naruto now. As for her telling Naruto things would eventually go back to how it was, it was all a fantasy that would soon turn into a sick twisted nightmare.

"I'll always love you Naruto, I'm here for you trough thick and thin" Ino squeezed his hand gently and bent over to place her lips against his, wanting to feel the passion they once shared with such fire. Shikamaru quickly slid out of the room with Ino oblivious to his view and walked out a minute after he did, closing the door behind her and letting Naruto rest after his outburst.

"Crazy, eh?" Ino sat next to Shikamaru on the couch where they had rested earlier before getting the news of Naruto's memory loss. Remembering that her son was in good hands of Tenten who was probably worried of her whereabouts, Ino gave her a quick call after excusing herself away from Shikamaru.

"Hello? Tenten, it's me, Ino" Ino spoke into her cellphone after hearing the sweet voice on the other line picking up the phone, it was unbelieavble how so much time could go on between her and Tenten without even seeing or hearing from eachother but as soon as they saw eachother the day before, it was as if no time passed at all.

"Ino! Where have you been? You said you would call sooner, I was worried" Tenten sounded nervous over the speaker of the phone, "What has happened? Are you okay?" Her concern grew bigger as her questions remained unanswered.

"I'm fine, Tenten. Listen, Naruto has been in a huge car accident and-" Ino bit her bottom lip, reality kicking in that this situation was actually happening and wasn't going anywhere for now, "He lost his memory, Tenten." She heard Tenten take in a huge deep breath of surprise and the giggles in the background of Naruto Jr calming Ino as well.

"No need for anymore explanation, Ino. I understand completely, if you want I can take care of Naruto Jr for a couple of days or so if you need" Tenten assured her blond friend, knowing she must have hurt so deeply with such a situation as her husbands memory loss.

"Thank you so much, Tenten. I'm at the hospital now, I'll call you tomorrow." Ino wanted to keep it short, assured that Tenten would keep her word and not further question the hurtful truth she was living now. Ino hung up her cell phone and placed it back in her side pocket, returning to take her seat next to Shikamaru who had his head bobbed back into the seat nodding on and off.

"You okay?" He asked Ino who sat down closely enough to smell her fresh scent he encountered the first time he leaned in to kiss her. Ino nodded her head and placed her hands on her lap, tensed and stiff in her seat, he noticed this, "You look like you need a massage Ino, relax a bit."

"I know, but I'm just so anxious, Shika. I want Naruto to regain his memory, I have hope" Ino replied, feeling almost defeated but trying to stay strong against the words she was telling him. Ino didn't get a reply from him except his touch, Shikamaru began to rub his fingertips against her neck and pressed his thumb on her shoulder-blades, calming her down and making her squirm in pleasure of his massage.

"This feels good, thank you Shika" Ino slowly moaned, closing her eyes and feeling his fingers become more stronger against her back and neck. She started to rotate her back with the circular motions of his thumbs as the massage became more enjoyable.

"Mmmm, this feels so good, harder" Ino moaned out-loud into the cushion of her seat, feeling his hand slide down lower to her bra and cup her breast with ease. Ino's moans started getting louder as his squeezes hardened her nipples and her fluids flowed trough the fabric of her panties.

"You give such good massages" Ino bit on his finger, feeling his lips pressed against her neck, "More, I want more" She groaned louder, not caring who was around anymore in this hospital. She soon felt two fingers slide down her sweat pants and under her panties, quickly inserting themselves inside her with her juices covering the two fingers for more ease.

"Did you miss me?" Ino could not believe the voice she heard in her ear, the voice belonging to the man who was making her feel such lust in the seat she was on. Naruto stared at her with joyful eyes and a sneaky grin, Ino was right, she just knew this whole thing had to be a huge prank.

"You want me to make love to you right here, Ino?" Naruto kissed her neck with more rage, biting and sucking at every opportunity she gave him. Ino was ecstatic that her husband had returned to her. She was ready, to ready, for him to make her body his again.

"What the-?" Ino's eyes blankly opened up to a sleeping Shikamaru next to her with a blanket over his chest, her surrounding became her reality again that she was for sure still in the hospital waiting for Naruto to recover. Her hear raced with what seemed to be so real and physical was all just an imagination of what she wanted. She wanted him, his touch, his lips, everything about Naruto couldn't have been more craved by Ino at the very moment; and with her broken dreams, she drifted back into her sleep.

Minutes to midnight was now approaching, the lobby seemed to be empty and silence with nothing but the nurse at the front desk typing up patients information on her computer while most of them rested in their rooms. The main entrance doors of the hospital slid open as the body censors sensed someone coming in.

The click clack of high heels echoed throughout the lobby as the woman in a trenched coat made her way towards the front desk where the nurse was, the hood of the coat kept her a mystery to the nurse who was observing her getting closer to the desk, her finger over the security button if she tried to do harm.

"Hello, may I help you?" The nurse asked, getting a better look at the woman's face that seemed to be with such a serious look, no answer. The nurse waited another second before asking again, "Um, may I help you?"

The woman slowly removed the hood of her coat and let her long blond locks hang down to the middle of her back, giving a warm smile to the nurse who looked dazed and confused. "Hello, I know it's a bit late, but i have to see my husband Naruto Uzumaki" she told the nurse who quickly brought up his information on her computer screen and looked back at her.

"And you are?" the nurse asked her, oblivious that the woman before her was no other than Sakura herself.

Sakura cleared her throat a bit and adjusted her blond hair away from her face before answering. She was hoping none of her real pink hair was showing trough the blond wig, wondering if her disguise was fooling the nurse enough to believe her next words, "I'm his wife, Ino Uzumaki"


And that's a wrap! *Q's dramatic music* haha! What happens now? Here come's Sakura once again getting involved in what's not hers, what is she up to this time around? What's about to happen with all of this mess going on? We'll have to wait as it unravels next time. Tell me your opinions so far and what you thought of this chapter! Thank you(:
