This is dedicated to all my followers (past, present and future) on Tumblr, especially the ones who inquired about my well-being after I informed them of what had happened. I hope this fic is to your liking!
Sasuke checked his watch for the fifteenth time in a minute. His expression continued to turn into one of annoyance as the hand of the minute hand shifted to two. It was 3:32 on a chilly and windy October afternoon. Where the hell was that idiot?
He had just finished a three hour study session after two hour and a half classes and all he wanted to do now was crawl underneath the covers of his bed and sleep.
Almost on cue, his phone vibrated with the piano arrangement of 'Just One Yesterday'. He quickly fished it out of his left pocket while readjusting is school bag and scarf. Sasuke barely took the time to look at the screen icon of a blond holding his hand in a victory sign as he pressed the 'answer' button and put his phone to his ear.
"Where the hell are you."
"Ehehe…" The voice on the other side was muddled by some sort of background noise, but Sasuke could hear them well enough. "Well, I was about to leave our apartment when Kiba called asking me what kind of flower to send Ino and I had to keep telling him that I didn't know jack shit about flowers and that he needed to shut up so I could leave, but when I opened the door, he was standing there and had this whole bag filled with flowers. So-"
"And so you spent the last fifteen minutes figuring out flowers." Sasuke's words were practically grounded into the cement underneath his feet. It was also at this point where a very familiar car came into view with Coldplay blaring through the car's closed windows.
"… Yeah?" This time, the voice didn't come from the phone, but rather the face of Naruto who had a sheepish smile on his face. Sasuke didn't dignify the other with a verbal response, preferring to rather slam the door shut as he climbed in. Naruto only raised an eye brow. "That bad of a study session?"
"Just drive, idiot."
The drive had started out normal enough, what with Naruto chattering on about Sai's new girlfriend, Hillary, (how the hell did that happen?)
Somewhere in the middle of a conversation (that was mostly one-sided in Naruto's side, but Sasuke preferred to listen rather than speak), Sasuke began to doze, the familiar sound of his boyfriend's voice and his own tiredness lulling him to sleep. For a while, that was all he could hear and Sasuke was fine with that.
He was snapped out of this pleasant drifting between consciousness and sleep when their car gave a sudden lurch. His eyes snapped open the same time Naruto growled an unhinged "Shit! What's that car doing there!?"
Sasuke's eyes quickly scanned the environment, taking note of the illegally parked car (really, the driveway is only three feet away dumbass) and the attempts of cars trying to move into the other lane to go forward. He didn't find much too comment on since this was such a routine thing. While he was usually the one who drove, Naruto wasn't so bad a driver that he couldn't get through such a traffic jam.
As their car moved forward to take its turn to move into the right lane, Sasuke closed his eyes again. Naruto could get through this with ease.
"Oh shit!"
Or not.
Once again, Sasuke's eyes were forced open when their car was forced to lurch; only this time, instead of cars, there was just a car.
"Fuck, Sasuke!" The young man had never been so thankful for Naruto's quick reaction skills because if it hadn't been for the other putting his hand out on his chest, Sasuke could've very well slammed his head against the front window as the left front side of the car slammed into the back right light of the parked car. The hit caused them both to lurch forward and grit their teeth as Naruto tried to steer their car from a direct collision. Their car continued to move forward until it was crossing over both sides of the street. Cars behind and in front stopped, anxious to see if the occupants were fine or if an ambulance was required.
At this point, Sasuke's fingernails were digging into Naruto's hand out of the sheer shock of the event. Naruto was panting heavily, not bothering to extract his hand, as he backed up the car and moved to park it a little ways ahead of the other car. As soon as it was pulled into a stop, Sasuke's head fell backwards against the headrest having been painfully craned forwards for such a long (short) amount of time. What had just happened?
"Hey," Sasuke turned his head to the driver's seat, his eyes meeting the worried blue of Naruto's. "Are you okay?"
On the 21st, my mother and I had gotten into an accident. The very circumstances in this story (even being picked up from school) are pretty much what had happened to my mom and I. When Naruto had said "oh shit" on its own with not attachments, that was my mom's reaction when the car behind us moved ahead of us, clipping her side. While she was distracted by that, the force of the clipping made our car head towards the (illegally) parked car that we were trying to avoid. I might upload a picture of the damage, but for now just imagine that the right passenger seat door was unable to be opened and the right front light had been totally demolished.
I called this story 'hit and run' not only because the car that had clipped us had done just that, but also because the person who had parked their car on the street told the police that we did the same even though we stayed at the site for more than five minutes with my mom giving the man her information for repair and insurance.
If you are concerned about me and mom's safety or health, don't worry, we're both fine. The most we got was trembling that lasted well into the night.
Thank you for reading and lots of love for both my followers on Tumblr and my readers here on FFN. Please leave a review, fav, or follow, do what you do, and certainly have a wonderful day/night.
