By the way...
"This can mean a memory or a text message."
"This means someone is thinking."
"And this means someone is talking."
"...Hey, did you hear me?"
"Huh? No.."
"You never listen to me!"
"It's cause I don't want my IQ to drop."
"Bastard!"
"Heh, I'm only stating the truth, idiot."
"HEY! I'll get you for that!"
"Watch what you're doing, dobe!"
"No way! I told you I'll get you!"
"Let go of me!"
"Defiantly not!"
"OI!"
"This is how it always is with us, these small arguments over hardly anything...but I can't help but smile at them.He really is adorable when he gets all flustered; when his tan skin lightly blushes, the contrasts against his bright blonde hair. When I see that I totally forget about the fight and can't help but stare at how lovely he is, he is absolutely gorgeous. Yet, he has no idea of my true feelings...that ignorant idiot. He is my best friend but being who I am and who my family is and how I grew up, showing my feelings is the absolute hardest. I wish I knew what he was thinking though, that would be so freaking nice! I don't know if I'll ever tell him...from what I know he is straight, with the way he talks about girls no one would guess otherwise. I'm not like those leading parts in movies or books where the person with the crush can't hide it. I hide pretty well actually, I think can hide any emotion I have pretty dang well.
Although, I sometimes wonder if that's even a good thing, is it good to be able to hide every emotion you possess? It kinda makes me feel lonely, no one is able to see when I'm hurt and depressed or when I'm happy and excited. My brother, Itachi, is a genius but yet he can't even tell when I'm upset. But then again, I find it hard sometimes to read Itachi but he also doesn't tell me his emotions either. I tried asking one time when I saw how stressed he was from overworking but he gave me a fake smile and told me he was fine and then he left. Naruto is as easily read as a picture book, he tells me all his problems, I pretend to not listen but I listen to everything he says and I always will, because I love him more than anything and it hurts knowing this cause I know I'll never hold him like I want, I can't love him how I want, I can't be that kind of person in his life and knowing all that hurts so bad. More than anything, even more than when my parents died, and knowing I can never tell Naruto my feelings hurts more than not having parents. He really is my most precious person..."
Sasuke closed the journal he finished writing in and put it up in his safe spot under his mattress. He sighed, he looked at his mattress knowing fully well that's the worst place to hide anything you don't want found but he had no where else except plain sight and he don't know which is worse so he figured at least the mattress covers it up.
He sighs as he grabs the bridge of his nose for his imaginary headache and then walks over to grab his backpack and walk down stairs for a glass of juice, he doesn't usually eat breakfast, 1) Because Itachi always left early for work, he is a nurse, and was the best cook between the two, 2) Because there were hardly ever groceries and 3) Because he wasn't a big fan anyway, he was hardly hungry in the mornings because he so often woke up with a little nausea.
So he finished his glass of cranberry grape juice and starts off to school, he always walks becasue he loves the fresh air and exercise so he walked even if there was a storm, he doesn't mind the rain all that much. Today, he knew, was not gonna be a good day; he sighed, Naruto had a new crush which means, since Sasuke is the best friend, he has to hear about her all day long and it takes every inch of Sasuke's will power to not punch him. Yes, he'd say he has a vicious kind of love. So Sasuke, even though he hated it, was gonna try to avoid Naruto. That would prove difficult since Naruto had three of this semesters four classes. Maybe he should have skipped school today?
Sasuke finally arrived at the school, carefully and cautiously moving towards the school while looking for Naruto. His first class is JROTC and Naruto and him aren't in the same platoon so they sit on opposite sides of the room, and that helps him a lot this morning, there is never time to talk to anyone except for who you sit beside and behind.
Finally, Sasuke made it to class without coming across Naruto. Sasuke sighs from relief as he collapses down into his seat, he looks around at the people starting to flood in but he sees no sign of Naruto, but its normal for Naruto to be late.
Time ticks by and still no Naruto, class began 30 minutes ag- BAM- o, Sasukes jumped at the loud noise, he turns to look and sees Naruto rushing in, Sasuke smiles "Spoke to soon." Naruto's face flushes with embarrassment at shoving the door to hard and being so late.
"Uzumaki! Would you care to explain why you are so late?!" The teacher yells from his spot in the middle of the floor.
Naruto tenses up and looks towards the floor, nervous to actually look at his pissed off teacher, 1st Sergeant Morino Ibiki. "Um...well...I-I was..." Naruto stutters, trying to think of an answer.
Morino looks even more displeased, "Spit it out, Uzumaki."
Naruto lifts his right arm to rub behind his head, his nervous tick, he puts on a grin that would split a normal person's face in two before he replies, "I just lost track of time cause I was talking to a girl." He lets out a nervous laugh before he puts his arm down.
Morino huffs, irritation eating at him, "Just go to your seat."
Even the teachers don't really know how to handle Naruto.
So Naruto starts walking to his seat and he looks towards Sasuke to smile and wave before sitting. Sasuke shakes his head and grins.
Morino decided to allow them to pack up a little early, for that Sasuke was grateful, he had to get out of here before Naruto ran up to him. Sasuke patiently waits for the bell to ring so he could dash quickly to his next class, even though he wonders what the use is considering Naruto had that class with him as well. His next class was math and his teacher always placed the students in seats alphabetically by last names so that put Naruto behind him, but the good thing about the teacher was that he absolutely hated when kids talked in his class so that helped him some, but Naruto was one to break rules, often, so he wondered if it would even help today.
The bell rang and he quickly grabs his bag and jumps for the door. He got outside and practically ran to Mr. Asuma Sarutobi's class. He got in and went to take his seat, it was on the same side as the teachers desk but the second from the very back, Naruto sat there. He layed his head down, needing to rest after running here.
After calming down and he just started staring at the wall trying to think about how to run to his next class without Naruto knowing he was avoiding him.
While Sasuke was contemplating his next move Naruto came into class and went to his seat, he taps Sasuke's shoulder and after he got his attention, whispered, "Hey, why didn't you wait for me after class today?"
Sasuke, cursing Naruto in his mind, just stared as if uninterested at him even though inside he was very nervous, "I'm just really tired today and I wanted to get here so I could lay my head down." He lied.
Naruto looked at him as if suspicious but then smiles and leans back into his seat, "Well, you gonna wait for me after this class then?" Naruto asks hopefully, "I wanna tell you about the girl I told you about some last night." Naruto smiles unknowing that Sasuke wants to ring his neck at that very moment.
Sasuke wants to walk with him but not when he is fancying some gal. So he is gonna lie to him again, "Sorry, I can't. I wasn't able to finish my work for my next class last night so I gotta hurry and finish it before he starts class." He hates seeing that smile come off the blondes face, it looks too good on him.
Naruto looks at him but then weekly smiles, "That's fine, Sasuke. Maybe we'll catch up later then. Like after school?"
Sasuke hates himself for being childish but he just don't wanna hear about this girl. Not right now. He'll hear about it eventually but he just don't want too right now. Sasuke smiles weekly, "Maybe, if I don't have much homework."
Naruto smiles again more brightly and nods, Sasuke turns around when the teacher begins speaking. Naruto has always been like this, every couple of weeks he has a new crush and every time he works up the courage to ask them out, and they all bluntly say no, and that they didn't like him, every time, but Naruto was not one to give up. He would ask them out several times before he'd start crushing on another girl.
Sasuke figures this would be the same so if Naruto found out he was avoiding him then if he could just say that this is the same pattern and that he didn't feel like hearing about another girl who will refuse to date him. It' s harsh to say that but he'll say anything to make sure Naruto don't find out about his feelings.
Sasuke then feels someone tap his shoulder, he turns slightly and Naruto whispers in his ear, "I plan on asking her out today after school."
Sasuke's heart thuds against his chest, no matter how many times he hears that it still affects him. Before Sasuke can reply, the teacher, who must have super hearing, hushes Naruto to be quiet and stop distracting his class. Naruto then snickers and leans back in his seat.
Sasuke stares at the clock, waiting for the time to pass, as it ticks loudly in his ears with each passing second. Each of his classes are a hour and a half long. "This feels like it will be a long day." Sasuke sighs and starts on some math problems to busy his mind.
The bell rings and Sasuke, who practically leaps into the air, grabs his stuff and takes off to his next class, which happens to be art and it isn't that far from his math class and luckily for him, Naruto doesn't have this class with him. Art is probably his favorite class this semester, the teacher doesn't teach too much and he allows them to listen to music most of the time. The teacher is apparently pretty young, not to far off from the students themselves, he is in college or something and is studying to become an art teacher so the school gave him this job to see how he likes it. He doesn't wanna be called Mister so the students all just call him by his first name, Sai.
Sasuke enters his class and goes to his seat, the kids were allowed to chose their seats so he chose the table in the middle to the left and he sat alone, it was more peaceful that way. He watches as the students gather in and sit down, all of them sitting with friends and talking, the teacher finally comes in and tells them to draw whatever they feel like.
Sasuke then grabs his pen and stares at the blank paper wondering what he should draw, he searches his mind for something to draw and what pops in his head is the same thing that pops in his head all the time; Naruto's smiling face, so he draws and draws, filled with joy as his concentrates on that beautiful face.
Before his knows it the class is over, the bell rings, and it's time to go to his next class. Sasuke packs up his things and leaves, he has science next with Mr. Kakashi Hatake, a really strange, perverted, always late for class teacher but he is lenient and doesn't make them work to much which he didn't mind one bit because that means he also gets to sit next to Naruto and that they can talk through class unless the teacher decides to give a test or something. Sasuke prays that they have a test today.
Sasuke walks into class and takes his seat, the "desks" is a long table, enough for two people to sit beside one another or for four to sit together two and two facing each other. Sasuke sits down and waits for everyone to get in and take their seats, he sees Naruto walk in chatting to some girl. Sasuke ignores it and starts doodling in his science book, he feels someone tap his shoulder and turns to see Naruto bent over right in front of Sasuke's face.
Naruto smiles and Sasuke blushes, "Hey, Sasuke. I'ma go sit with that girl over there today." He points towards the back of the class to a girl with long brown hair, soft forest green eyes, pale skin to rival Sasuke's own porcelain pale skin.
She looks to Sasuke and smiles gently.
"Her name is Kirie Goshima. She is the girl I've been telling ya about." Naruto looks towards her, smiles and waves.
Sasuke fights the urge to punch him in the stomach and glare at the girl.
Naruto then turns to Sasuke and smiles at him while putting his arm around Sasuke's shoulders, "Is that fine with you?"
Sasuke wants to say "no" but how can he when Naruto is so happy, he swallows, "This crush should be over soon. Just wait a little while, Sasuke." So Sasuke sends Naruto a sarcastic smirk, "Why are you asking me, dobe? It's not like I care if you sit with your new crush. Just don't come crying to me when she dumps you."
Naruto's mouth falls open and he looks at Sasuke, "Say that any louder, should ya?" Naruto harshly whispers in Sasuke's ear.
Sasuke's smirk widens a fraction at Naruto's exasperated whisper.
"I'll get ya for that, teme. Just watch." Naruto smiles teasingly and removes his arm and walks over to Kirie.
Sasuke watches as Naruto sits next to her and starts cracking jokes. Sasuke sends an unknown glare their way and turns back around. Mr. Hatake decided to read his porn books and so he made the class watch a movie about giant snakes in the dinosaur ages.
Finally, the bell rings and as he gathers his things and gets up he sees Naruto leaving with Kirie. Sasuke's brows furrow as he glares; if looks could kill then everyone within a 20 foot radius would have collapsed.
Naruto is laughing as he nudges Kirie with his arm; Sasuke, not wanting to go to jail for murder decides to ignore it the best he can.
They walk out ahead of him and go the opposite direction from him, he needs to go to his locker and put some of his things up, today is Friday and he had no homework so he wants to put his books in his locker to lighten the load on his back. He walks through the halls to his locker trying to stop himself from thinking about his last class but his brain is determined and the only thing he sees is Naruto's smiling face and those gentle touches aimed towards someone else. Sasuke can feel his throat constrict, "Shit! Not right now! I can't let myself be seen crying in school. Just calm down for now."
Sasuke decides to walk out the doors from the sides to avoid Naruto and Kirie, they most likely would go out the front door. So Sasuke walks towards the doors, most people usually walk out the front so at least he could be alone for a couple minutes, he doesn't want to see anyone right now.
Sasuke opens the door and as he turns the corner to head to the road he sees Naruto and Kirie making out, Sasuke feels like his heart stops beating, the oxygen absorbed from his lungs as if he was hit with a car.
Sasuke is breathless.
Sasuke's eyes widen, tears bursting through. Sasuke sees his most precious person, the one he loves more than anything with his tongue down another person's throat.
Sasuke turns the corner and goes back inside the school, the tears now flowing freely from his puffy, red eyes. Sasuke just stands there in the hallway, he feels like someone had ripped off his limbs, gutted him, and then sat him on fire. Sasuke knew he wouldn't stop crying so he decided to go around the back of the school and go the long way home...
