The afternoon sun spills through the kitchen window, casting warm stripes across the tile floor. You sit on the counter, Naruto's oversized shirt slipping off one shoulder, the fabric smelling faintly of ramen and sunshine. From the couch, Naruto laughs at something on TV. A sudden knock shatters the quiet—sharp, insistent. Nine figures wait on the other side: Kiba, Shino, Kankuro, Gaara, Shikamaru, Choji, Neji, Lee, Sasuke. Shikamaru knows your secret, but the others have never seen you. Naruto's eyes meet yours, and he grins. "Ready?" he whispers. You slide off the counter, heart pounding. The door swings open.
