Going Home; Time to Choose

 

Six Months Later

 

Sasuke's POV

 

Sasuke was reading a book. Today they had downtime the old man had finally passed away and Lord Takayama was succeeded to the throne successfully. It only took them about seven months to complete this mission. He missed Konohoa even though it held so many bad memories. He was ready to go home and sleep in his bed, as well as Naruto's. The only problem was Rei.

 

Naruto had his head in her lap and Sasuke had his head in Naruto's lap as they lie under the tree in Rei's thinking spot. Sasuke liked it when they were all together. These past seven months he hadn't really made any more friends in this village. Nor was he interested in making more friends. He had these two and they were enough.

 

“Naruto please I'm trying to meditate.” Rei scolded.

 

Sasuke saw he was trying to move his hand up her nicely tanned thighs again. Sasuke chuckled he knew it was hard resisting the temptation to bed her. This was not the first time they'd run into this problem. After they decided they were going to try being more than just a team of friends but rather lovers Rei told them she was a virgin. Neither boy wanted the job of taking her virginity. Especially when they didn't know how long they'd stay. Sasuke didn't want to de-flower a girl then leave her village. Not one as special as Rei. What if they didn't see her again? Sasuke stopped there; he didn't like to think about the three of them not being together. Rei was he and Naruto's perfect balance she could be as serious and reserved as Sasuke, but she could also laugh and excitedly eat ramen like Naruto. Her training was more advanced than theirs so she always helped them train.

Sasuke couldn't imagine it just being Naruto and him again. He loved Naruto but she just fit perfectly.

 

Sasuke sighed, “Naruto please.”

 

“She's just so pretty there thinking, I just wanted a little touch.” Naruto tickled her a bit and she started laughing.

 

This only egged him on. He tickled her more and before Sasuke knew it he was somehow sucked into this tickle fest. The three of them were rolling around laughing.

 

“Ahem” Kakashi cleared his throat.

 

“Sorry sensei” Naruto smiled.

 

“It's time.”

 

No one spoke; they knew what time he meant. They were going to leave today. Leave her behind.

 

“Meet me at the city gates in an hour.” Kakashi smiled softly, then turned and slowly walked away reading his book.

 

“Rei,” Naruto started, but she held up her hand.

 

“It's ok Naruto-kun; I mean honestly we all knew you had to leave.”

 

Sasuke could hear her voice shake a bit. He couldn't take it.

 

“Go home with us.” He said softly yet seriously.

 

“I couldn't I have Lord Takayama here and my sisters.”

 

“You told me once that, they weren't enough. Do you feel like we are enough? Do you think you would feel emptier without us, or with out them?” Naruto added.

 

Rei was silent for a moment, “It couldn't possibly work. Where would we live? How would I train? I mean would it even work? Would we start to drive each other insane?”

 

Naruto smiled, “Just try it out. I'm sure Takayama would let you come back if you didn't like it.”

 

Sasuke nodded, “Think of it as a vacation.”

 

Rei sighed, “Let me think. If I'm going to go then I'll be at those gates when Kakashi-sensei said.”

 

She then got up and left looking very confused.

 

Sasuke looked at Naruto who kissed him.

 

“She'll be there Sasuke. She is our girl isn't she? Who could replace us?” He gave Sasuke that million dollar smile. When he did that Sasuke had a hard time not believing what he said.

 

Rei's POV

 

Rei walked back to the house slowly trying to weigh her options. Should she stay here with her “family” or should she go with those two boys she was starting to love.

“Hellooooo earth to Rei.” Her sister Hana stood in front of her waving her hands.

 

“Sorry Hana I didn't hear you call me.”

 

“What's eating you?”

 

“Sasuke and Naruto want me to go back to Konohoa with them.”

 

Hana was quiet. Rei could tell she was trying to carefully word her advice.

 

“Rei we love to have you here. I really do forget that we aren't sisters. But is this what you want? I know you, you are a ninja. Do you really want to share our fate? We are to get married for our country, make alliances and have children. Can you settle down like that? Better yet can you let those two hotties go without regret? I love you sis and I'd miss you soo much. But I'd understand and I'm sure Midori would understand also.”

 

Rei sighed, “But I can't just go. What about Lord Takayama?”

 

“Tousan would understand. He isn't as close minded as you may think.”

 

Hana hugged Rei tightly. She was saying goodbye with the hug and Rei knew. This should be easy. Naruto was right, she'd told him that something was missing in her life but giving up this family was so hard. Naruto and Sasuke weren't the only ones who'd accepted her as is.

 

Hana walked away and Rei was once again walking up to the main house alone.

 

When she finally reached her destination she hesitated to open the doors.

 

“Rei why are you standing outside my office like that?” Takayama said coming up behind her.

 

Rei smiled, “Afternoon Tousan.”

 

“Well don't just stand there let's go in and have tea. You can tell me what's on your mind.”

 

They went in and sat down. Rei was so nervous she was fidgeting with her kimono.

 

“Well?” Lord Takayama said handing her a cup of tea.

 

“Sasuke and Naruto asked me to go back to Konohoa with them.”

 

Takayama sat down and sighed, “I knew this was going to happen the second you started hanging out with that Uchiha all the time.”

 

“I don't have to go, but I was going to ask you if you'd mind.”

 

“Rei as you know I am not your father. I wish I was so that I could protect you a bit longer, but I can't keep you here forever. I can tell that being a ninja is in your blood. If you go with them you can make that dream come true. I can also tell that you care deeply for them.” Takayama stood up and looked out the window. “When I first met Hana and Midori's mother I would have followed her to world's end. I want you and my other two daughters to find that kind of love if at all possible. How can I let you pass this up?”

 

Rei smiled, she ran and hugged Takayama, her father. He ran his fingers through her hair.

 

“I sure am going to miss you Rei and your beauty around here. If you need anything you always have us to come home to. Or if you just want to visit. Don't forget us.”

 

Rei hugged tighter, “How could I forget my family?”

 

Naruto's POV

 

Kakashi arrived late as usual and started walking. The two young ninja didn't move.

 

“Are you guys coming?” he said over his shoulder.

 

“Just give us a few seconds longer.” Naruto begged. She had to come, even if it was to say goodbye she had to be there.

 

Kakashi stopped walking, “Maybe she's not coming.”

 

“She's coming” Sasuke snapped at him

 

Kakashi shrugged and went back to his reading.

 

They waited.

 

Five minutes.

 

Ten minutes.

 

Fifteen minutes.

 

“We are going now. That's an order.” Kakashi said and started walking.

 

The two boys hung their head and followed.

 

The walk back to Konohoa was like a death march. When they stopped to camp the two boys couldn't even carry on a conversation. They just cuddled each other and went to sleep. Finally Naruto spoke as he spooned a half asleep Sasuke.

 

“Maybe she has a good reason and we should just go back.” He whispered.

 

Sasuke rolled over facing the blue eyed boy.

 

“Maybe she just didn't want us.” Sasuke hissed.

 

Naruto could tell he was hurt, she'd hurt him so much it made him angry. Then surfaces the old Sasuke, the closed off one.

 

“Sasuke…” Naruto cooed, but the dark haired boy would hear nothing else. He rolled over just to show how closed the conversation was.

 

Naruto slowly drifted to sleep; he wasn't exactly sure how he was going to fix Sasuke this time.

 

Sasuke's POV

 

Sasuke walked in silence. Looking at Naruto hurt, loving Naruto reminded him that she abandoned them like everyone else. Sasuke's heart was broken.

 

He'd never admit it in ten jillion years.

 

“Hey Sasuke…” Naruto started.

 

Sasuke waved his hand at Naruto, it was a sign he didn't want to talk. He just wanted to walk. He wanted to get back to Konohoa and train. Training was all that was on his mind that this point in time. Training took no emotion. Training never broke his heart.

 

The gates came into view. His mind was racing angrily but his heart said home. Just in time because it started to rain. The rain was freezing it just added to the bad mood Sasuke was already in.

 

There was no one out today; they'd all fled inside from the rain.

 

“Sasuke…” Naruto called again.

 

This time Sasuke stopped. He didn't want to face his boyfriend right now. He wanted to go home alone so no one could see him cry. He wanted to punch something. He wanted to do a lot of things but none of these things meant turning around and looking at Naruto.

 

“Sasuke?”

 

He ground his teeth and turned around ready to yell something insulting at Naruto.

 

“You left me.” Rei said while holding Naruto's hand. They both had Naruto's trademark grin painted on their faces standing at the gates in the freezing rain.

 

They looked perfect.
