Sarada's POV:

I awkwardly chuckled and glanced at the both of them. This is going to go south real fast and it's gonna be REAL bad.

"Papa before you do anything that you will will or will not regret later, let me explain something to you." I said. He looked over at me and I could just feel a tinge of his anger go down. I exhaled before continuing.

"No, Boruto did not try and force himself onto me. No, Boruto did not force me to date him (*cough* yes he did *cough*). And no, Boruto didn't harm me in any way shape or form."

When I finished Boruto looked at me questioningly but I mouthed the words 'I'll explain later' to him. See, my father has a set of rules that my boyfriend must abide by to get some kind a blessing from him. Like my boyfriend must have a car, and my boyfriend must maintain a 3.0 gpa and many, many, more reasons.

Anyways, back to reality. When I looked back at my father and saw that he had eyes closed and it looked like a vein was popping out of his forehead. I could tell he was still angry but at least he was calming down a bit. But progress is progress no matter how small.

"Yeah," Bolt said slinging his arm around my shoulder. "Anything me and Sarada have done, or will do, is always to the consent of her."

This caused papa to open his eye with an angry look while mama covered her mouth with her fingertips and giggled.

"Oh my." She said still giggling.

Realization struck us as it finally registered in our minds. Bolt waved his hands in front of him as a light blush appeared on both of our faces.

"W-wait I-I didn't mean it like that! I would never kiss her or anything—wait! N-not that way either I mean, don't get me wrong Sarada is beautiful and all but- I should really shut up."

His last remark made me blush more so I turned my head to the side and held my cheek. Hot. As expected. I probably look like my father's favorite fruit right about now.

I regained my composure and turned my head forwards. "Okay dobe number two. Kitchen. Now." Papa commanded.

"Yes sir!" Bolt said mocking a soldier's tone while saluting. This made my father roll his eyes before both of them got up at the same time and walked towards the kitchen. Just before Bolt disappeared into the kitchen, he turned around and smiled his trademark smile with two thumbs up.

I smiled weakly back and once he was inside the kitchen I whipped my head towards my mother, who was sipping some tea that I have no clue how she got.

"So sweetie, how's school?" She asked innocently, like she didn't know that her husband was about to turn Bolt into prune juice. "I don't think that is the topic of discussion right now." I said through gritted teeth.

"The real problem is that YOUR husband is about to punch Boruto so hard that he'll go back in time to when you guys were kids." She just sipped her tea and simply said, "Go on." I huffed and crossed my arms and legs.

She set her tea down and waved me off. "Okay, Okay I'm joking. Jeez when will you ever take a joke?" She said with puffed out cheeks. "I know how your father gets and I know he won't kill Bolt." At this, I sighed of relief and relaxed for the first time this evening. "He'll just probably injure him really badly. But no worries, afterwards you and I can heal him."

I sighed and rubbed my temples and I could feel a headache rising. I opened my mouth to say something but just then I heard the doorbell ring. Great, just who could that be.

I got up to answer the door and when I opened it, it was none other than Bolt's family. Hinata smiled sweetly at me before speaking. "Hello Sarada, sorry to intrude but we were wondering have you seen Boruto? He hasn't come home and we checked with all of his friends and they say they haven't seen him since school."

I opened the door wider and gestured for them to come inside. They walked in and greeted mama before taking a seat on the couch I was sitting on. "Boruto's actually in the kitchen right now talking with Sasuke." Mama said.

"Oh great!" Naruto said popping up. "Since the teme is home it's now time to mess with him." He then grinned mischievously while rubbing his hands together.

He was was about to walk into the kitchen when he was hit by a blur of blonde. Both blondes were sent flying before hitting the front door, making an evident crack.

Hinata and I rushed to their sides and Hinata held Naruto's head in her lap while I kneeled beside Boruto. "S-Sarada? Why is there t-two of you?" He said waving his hand around the area around next to my head.

I shook my head and moved his bangs out of his face to examine it fully. Good news was that he didn't have a concussion but bad news was that he'd have a black eye and knot at the side of his head.

I felt a light tap on my shoulder and looked up to see a worried Hinata looking down at her son. "How is he?"

"Well." I started as I got up. "It isn't anything severe I'll tell you that." She smiled as her face went from worried to normal. "But he does have a black eye and a small knot on his forehead, all which can be treated with ice."

She nodded and went back to Naruto's side. I took this chance to go talk to the person who had caused all of this. As I walked I saw that Himawari was talking with papa already.

"That was so cool!" Hima said jumping up and down. "Could you maybe do this once or twice or everyday of the week?"

He smiled shortly before ruffling her hair. When I stopped in front of him I cleared my throat and tapped my foot. He looked at me and held his same emotionless expression like he didn't care what he did(which he probably didn't).

"Himawari! Come take your brother to the car!" Hinata called which made her groan. "Okay! Man, I wanted to hang out with Sarada and Uncle Sasuke for a little bit longer." She mumbled the last part.

With a huff she walked over to Boruto and dragged him by his foot towards the front door. She gave us a quick wave and smile before closing the door.

When I heard the engine to their car start up and fade away as they drove out, I pivoted on my heel and stood with my hand on my hip while glaring at him.

He quirked an eyebrow at me and glared back. It was now a glare off and I wasn't about to back down. We glared at each other for about 5 minutes until I eventually got tired and walked upstairs. Papa: 1 Me: 0

"I'm going to sleep now. Oh and don't bother making me a plate for dinner. I don't feel like eating anyways."

Before she could even get a chance to respond, I had already closed the door to my room. As soon as my door closed I could hear mild yelling from downstairs and the sound of something breaking. 

I sighed and walked to the bathroom to take my shower and brush my teeth. As I now lay here looking up at my bland ceiling I couldn't help but chuckle as I realized something.

Boruto was going to have to explain to our friends how he got ANOTHER black eye and I can assume he's gonna make up some crazy story to hide the fact that he got beat up by a guy who has only one arm.

That's the end of this chapter. This chapter is shorter than my other chapters cause I've decided that in order to update faster I won't write like 2000 words because that's A LOT of writing I have to do.

Oh and to everyone telling me to update, don't worry I see your comments but I can't update at the snap of a finger since I usually put a lot of thought into these chapters and I don't like to half-ass it.

Also excuse the fact that I kinda rushed the end of this chapter. I just thought my writing looked soooo ugly and cringy but I guess every author has those moments where they think their writing looks so stupid so yah.

On a side note, happy birthday to the one, the only, ramen loving freak; Naruto Uzumaki!!!! ✨💕🍜

Vote and comment it really helps me a lot 💫
