Chapter 3: Believing in the Moon

"Sasuke, what's happening to me?" cried Naruto, looking at the puddle of blood that flowed from between his legs. A great pain could be felt at the part where the baby should have formed. He couldn't help but cry as the pain began to increase.

"What did you do?" shouted Sasuke, pulling him by the hair so that they were looking at each other.

"I don't know. My body, it suddenly changed back into a man and this happened," said Naruto, tears falling freely. The dark-haired man let go of his hair and he fell in the puddle of his own blood.

"Your body can't withstand all the amount of chakra for too long," mumbled Sasuke, his face serious and deep in thought. "Even with the Kyuubi's chakra, it has been nearly three months of continuous chakra usage. Even though, your chakra replenishes itself in one night, there would be no way it could do it continuously in this situation."

"What does it mean?" asked the blonde, clutching at the part under his stomach.

"You're suffering from miscarriage. The change killed the thing."

----------------------------------------------------------

Reigi played with a strand of blonde hair as he waited for his mother to wake up. He had hoisted them onto the bed after his mother passed out. Now Naruto was lying peacefully on his chest as he ran his fingers through the mass of bright hair. Minutes had ticked by rather slowly but he was sure that the breakfast he had brought up had turned cold.

A low moan escaped the parted lips of the older man as Naruto stirred in his son's arms. Reigi gave a start, his attention immediately on his mother. He looked down at the pale face, a tinge of purple was apparent on his mother's cheek.

"Rei? What happened?" asked his mother, sitting up from his position and tugging on the shirt more securely over his bare body. He scanned the room slowly, waiting for his son to respond.

"I'd like to know myself," said the taller man, manoeuvring his leg so that he was now sitting cross legged behind his mother.

A shaky hand touched the spot that had been abused just earlier on his cheeks. Reigi had to stop himself from reaching out for his mother as Naruto stepped off of the bed, his hand still on his cheek. His gaze fell on the bed and he heard distinctly the sound of the bathroom door being opened before closing. A small click sounded right after, telling Reigi that the bathroom door was locked from inside.

With a frustrated huff, he let his body drop onto his side making the bed creak in protest under him. He chewed on his lower lip, a habit he developed in since he was small when he was frustrated or angry.

He didn't need to be any smarter to know that his mother was silently distancing with him. If it had been any other day, his mother would smile up at him after waking up, not caring if it had been after another abuse from his father or not. But now, what were filled in his mother's face were caution, fear and maybe a slight distrust.

If it had been any other day, his mother wouldn't have locked the door. It was only if his father was present in the room was the lock any useful. The need to crush the lock was building up in him.

He heard the shower being turned on.

Reigi released his bruised lip to let out a deep sigh. If it had been any other day, his mother would try his best to conceal his pain.

He began to regret ever confessing.



Naruto stared at his flat tummy. His previous memory coming back to him making him crouch on the cold floor, his slender fingers balled in a fist and were pressed between his thighs and stomach.

He never told Reigi about the miscarriage. He was always afraid the boy would think differently of him for killing his supposed-to-be elder sibling. Like any other only child, Reigi had once asked him, when he was 5-years-old, that he wanted a brother or sister to play with. Naruto felt knots form in his stomach at the innocent inquiry. He would have liked to but he didn't think Sasuke would have agreed.

He had thought right when, on the same day, Reigi had run into his room sporting a bright bruise on his cheek. Naruto worriedly asked who had done it while he tended to the tender flesh. Sniffling and nibbling on his lower lip, Reigi mumbled, "Oyaji-sama." When asked the reason behind the slap, Reigi gave an indignant huff and began to rant about how he felt lonely and only asked Sasuke if he could have another brother. Naruto once again felt the knots forming.

He ran his free hand through his soaked hair. He felt heat rolling down his cheeks amidst the cold water.

Reigi probably no longer wanted a sibling. His son probably just wanted him now.

The stream of tears increased as Naruto clamped a hand over his mouth to cover his sobs. He was confused, afraid and felt lost. He didn't know how to react now after finding out Reigi actually loved him more than he should.

It all felt wrong. What he was doing with Sasuke and with Reigi. Since when had his life taken a wrong turn to the path of sin?

"I can give you more than the world can offer, Naruto."

His eyes widened at the sudden memory and finally gave up crouching to huddle into the small corner in the bathroom. He pressed his face into his palms and tried his best to rid himself of the memory that was silently engulfing him.

"What?"

He no longer wanted to muffle his sobs.

"Myself."

He heard a light knocking on the wooden door and heard Reigi's voice. He couldn't decipher what his son was saying but from the tone, he knew the boy was worried.

He pushed himself up and let the water run over his tear-streaked face for a few seconds before turning the shower off and padding slowly towards the door. He grabbed a towel and tied it around his waist before unlocking and opening the door to find a worried Reigi chewing on his bottom lip.

"As if that's enough, you bastard."

Naruto couldn't stop himself from smiling at the look of helplessness his son was showing to him. The sin he shared with Reigi will never be the same as how he shared with Sasuke. This sin he will begin to finally accept will always be filled with love. He was sure of it.



Nights with a full moon had always found a sweet spot in Naruto's heart. He liked how something so small could give a huge effect to its surrounding. Without the moon's light, everything else would look much darker, much gloomier and much lonelier. But the moon would gradually begin to get covered day after day by darkness, as if the shadow that covered it slowly began to eat at its life.

The sound of a door being opened made him turn around to see Reigi smiling at him, his hair wet from just having a bath. The smile was returned with Naruto's 'motherly' ones that made Reigi flush a faint colour of scarlet. The door clicked shut and the eighteen-year-old walked over to a vacant chair to drape the wet towel over the back of it.

Naruto left his post on the veranda to stand by the door, just watching his son pull on a black shirt and dark blue pants. The small man then reached for a nearby comb and padded to his son's side.

"Rei, let me," Naruto began, gesturing with the comb. The taller boy took a seat and stared out through the open window as he felt delicate fingers play with his hair. The thin see-through curtain that covered the opened window played gently against the night wind.

Minutes passed in silence as Naruto made the simple task longer by making small braids in the back. Reigi, who was just content on the feeling of those fingers moving through his hair without knowing the real truth, finally broke the silence by letting out a sigh.

"What is it, Rei?" Naruto asked curiously, his fingers still busily making the sixth braid.

"It's just…you," Reigi answered in a low tone. It nearly slipped past Naruto's ears had it not been the silent night. The pale fingers slowed their ministrations.

"What about me?" there was a hurried tone as Naruto worked on undoing all the braids and combing back his son's hair to its normal way.

"I thought for sure you would start avoiding me."

Naruto finally let go of his son's hair and walked to the dresser to place the comb.

"It's getting late. You need to get up early, right Rei?" He said as he walked to the bed, his voice wavering slightly as he tried to divert the topic. He was fixing the crumpled covers when strong arms encircled from behind.

"Don't try to change the subject, Naru-kaa-san," whispered Reigi, his mouth touching the tip of the blonde's left ear. The hands that were in midair released the bedding and let it fall to his side.

"I just don't want anything to change," said Naruto, turning around and detaching himself from his son. He looked into his son's midnight blue eyes, comprehension dawning slightly in the overshadowed face.

"Isn't it too late for that?" asked Reigi, pressing on his mother's shoulder and guiding them back. Naruto's blue eyes widened in shock and disbelief as the back of his knees hit the edge of the bed, making him trip and pull the taller man with him. They fell unceremoniously, Reigi on top of Naruto.

"R - Rei, get off me," the blonde desperately struggled to push his son away but the young man continued to pin the blonde to the bed "Please…"

Reigi finally pulled away far enough to stare at his mother's face. The bright blue eyes belonged to the older man was hidden behind eyelids but water was wetting the long lashes. He released one of his hands and cupped his mother's cheeks.

"Then tell me, Naru-kaa-san," began Reigi, letting his fingers ghost over his mother's cheeks to his neck. "What made you change your mind?"

Naruto kept a straight face even when Reigi harshly pulled him into a kiss, impatience finally overwhelming the young boy at his mother's unresponsiveness. He didn't struggle like he did before, Reigi found out after a thorough exploration of his mother's mouth. He pulled away slowly and stared at the pale face under him. Dark blue eyes widened by a fraction at the look of resolve in his mother; something that was rarely ever seen in the petite man.

He retreated from the prison he had created, suddenly realizing what he had done. His face turned away in shame as his mother too, left his position on the bed. At first, it looked like his mother was about to come his way but as they were an arm's length apart; the man sidestepped him to walk to the veranda.

"Rei, you know I like the full moon, right?" asked Naruto, a warm smile on his lips as he turned to face his bewildered son.

"Yeah, but you hate it when it starts to get covered," the younger man took cautious steps towards his mother, seeming as if he was suspicious of who the blonde really was.

"Do you know why?" Reigi just shook his head and Naruto turned to the bright object hanging amongst the black skies.

"It's because it keeps covering the moon. It keeps tainting its purity," explained Naruto, his eyes still transfixed to the moon. "Just like someone I know."

At this, Reigi gave a start, whirling his head from the moon to his mother. Tentatively, he asked, "Who?"

"Sasuke," Naruto breathed out as a chilling wind swept over them both. "But you know what Rei? It doesn't really matter that the darkness keeps closing in over the moon because it'll light back up. Slow, but it will definitely light back up."

Naruto turned to lock eyes with his son and Reigi didn't need anymore explanation from his mother to understand. Slowly, but certainly, his mother would open up to him; give him a chance.

Reigi leaned lower, hovering very close to his mother that he could feel every breath his mother exhaled. A small whisper of the one word that Reigi wasn't accustomed with but felt linked slipped from between his mother's dry and cold lips before they kissed, under the full moon.

"Dattebayo…"
