Chapter 148 - Chapter 148

"She didn't even tell me where she lives," Naruto muttered to himself with sighed. Knowing he could not leave her here, Naruto gently lifted the woman up bridal style and began his trek to his house. When he got to the gate, Naruto let his chakra flare to open it. Walking into the yard Naruto made a clone to open the door, as he walked in the clone closed it and followed the original. Naruto made his way upstairs and chose one of the rooms, having the clone open it so he could make his way inside. The clone followed him and went over to the bed, lifting the sheets before dispelling.

Naruto gently set the purple haired woman in the bed, taking off her shoes and moving over to place them by the door. He walked back and brought the sheets up over Yugao, who was mumbling Hayate's name in her sleep and looked like she was having a nightmare. Naruto tucked her in and sat down on the bed, running his hands through her hair until her whatever she was dreaming of seemed to subside. The blond shinobi frowned as he looked at the woman; while he had noticed how bad she looked when they had met at the memorial stone, she had not looked nearly as bad as she did now. The bags under her eyes were much more prominent, showing that she had gotten barely any sleep and was probably over working herself with missions. Her breathing was also sounding a little strained, while Naruto was no medical ninja, he was more then skilled in the medical field to recognize that her injuries from her last mission had not healed yet.

Knowing she was a friend of Yugao's, Naruto had explained his history with the purple haired Anbu to Anko and asked if she knew what exactly was going on with Yugao. She had informed him that Yugao had not been doing well since Hayate's death, it seemed that no matter what her friends did nothing seemed to work. Anko had hoped that Naruto could somehow help Yugao, since he had a small history with her and no one else was able to do anything. Unfortunately the blond did not even know where to start, though that did not mean he would do nothing. Naruto brushed some of the hair out of Yugao's face, leaning down he kissed her on the forehead before getting up and leaving.

The next morning Yugao Uzuki woke up with a massive hangover, groaning she held onto her head as she sat up in bed. She slowly opened her eyes, so that they would not get hurt from her oversensitive eyes overloading from the light in the room. It was then that she realized she was not in her apartment, nor in any of her friend's apartments. She looked around and saw that the room she was in was nice, it reminded her of some of the four and five star hotels she had stayed at when dealing with nobles. The bed was a deep crimson color, with soft and plush pillows. On the left hand side was a dresser with a reading lamp on it, farther along the wall was a door that led to a walk in closet. On the other side was a door that was slightly ajar to show a bathroom, no doubt it would be just as opulent as the room she was in now. The carpet looked extremely soft and matched the color of her bed; meanwhile the walls were a light blue that contrasted with the sheets and floor.

As she looked around the room, Yugao tried to remember what had happened last night. She could not remember too much, she remembered going out on another S rank mission and had almost gotten herself killed when they ended up fighting an S rank missing ninja and several Chunin level ninja. It had only been thanks to one of her comrades carrying her back to Konoha while she had only been half conscious and near death from blood loss that she survived. After she had woken up Yugao snuck out of the hospital like usual, she then went to look for her friends in the hopes they would want to get a drink. However she had not been able to find any of them, deciding she did not care Yugao had gone to get drunk by herself. After that things got fuzzy, she remembered a fight of some kind, feeling really bubbly, then feeling depressed and finally feeling completely safe. She was unsure what to make of this; however she knew that whoever had given her that last feeling, which she had not felt since Hayate's death, must live here.

Getting out of bed, Yugao felt her legs wobble a bit and had to wait for a moment to regain her balance. Once she did the young woman checked herself over, and sighed in relief when she noticed the only thing that was out of place on her was the fact that she had no shoes on. Looking around she spotted her shoes near the door, moving over despite the headache she had Yugao put on her shoes. She then opened the door and looked out, one side had a stair case while the other had a door. Not seeing anyone Yugao moved to the staircase, walking down as she made her way to the first floor.

About halfway down the stairs an absolutely heavenly aroma hit her nose, Yugao soon found herself following the mouth watering scent. She stopped where the scent seemed to be and found herself in a kitchen, looking around she blinked in surprise as she noticed who was cooking. It was Naruto wearing a pair of what looked like workout sweats of some kind, flipping some kind of pancake in the frying pan he held. Yugao stayed in her spot for a long while as she looked at what in her head, was a really odd scene. That was when Naruto turned around to put the pancake, which Yugao noticed was flat, down in a dish and saw her.

Naruto gave the woman a large smile, "good morning Yugao-chan! How did you sleep?"

Yugao blinked before remembering her manners, "oh um, I slept fine… how about you?"

"Pretty good," Naruto replied as he poured some batter onto the pan, "why don't you go sit down while I finish cooking breakfast, it should only be another minute or two."
