A/N: Okay, the sequel to Green Eyes. I actually started writing this immediately after finishing the first story. In fact, I already have the end written. (Strange I know) It's a good ending though. At least, I think so. :P

I hope you enjoy this story. It should be a fun ride.

Warnings: Slash male/male relationships. Possessiveness. Jealousy. Potential violence. (Depends on how mad Sasuke gets. :P) Obliviousness, and just all around silliness. Also, mild language. (Mostly on Sasuke's part. Though I'm sure you can see why...)

Fit to Be Tied

Chapter One

The Plan

Naruto hummed as he walked down the streets of Konoha. He was heading to the training area, but not because he wanted to train. Oh no, he was going to get help for his plan. What plan you ask? Why his plan to make Sasuke all adorably jealous of course.

Naruto rubbed his hands together in anticipation. Making Sasuke jealous had many benefits. Not only did he get to watch the famous Uchiha composure break, but he gets the pleasure of knowing that he was the one who caused it. Hey, he may be his boyfriend now, but that didn't stop all feelings of rivalry. Besides, Sasuke always did interesting things when jealous. A shiver went through Naruto's body as he remembered what had happened the last time. Oh yes, there were definite perks to making Sasuke jealous.

Now all he needed was some co-conspirators. After all, Sasuke needed someone to be jealous of. After much thought, Naruto had come to the conclusion that getting girls to help him wouldn't work. He didn't know that many girls anyway, and the few he did were either already seeing someone or just plain too scary to deal with. So he would ask a guy or two to help. He had a lot of guy friends, and he was technically gay. I mean, he had a boyfriend for crying out loud.

Besides, he had the feeling that guys would pose more of a threat to Sasuke anyway. And the bigger the threat, the greener Sasuke's eyes would flash. (And the more fun Naruto would have.) Yes, he needed a guy for his plan to work.

Which is why he is currently on his way to the training area. There had to be a least a couple of people he knew there and was the best place to start looking for 'help'.

An evil grin stole across the usually innocently smiling face. He couldn't wait.

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

Neji was having a pretty normal day. Get up, shower and dress, study, have breakfast, then train. That was what he was doing right now, training. Nope, nothing unusual about today. Until a certain blonde entered the training area. Not that this was that unusual, but Neji sensed something off about the younger boy.

Though he had sensed him the moment he arrived, he finished a few more practice moves before turning to the ball of energy.

When Naruto noticed that Neji had stopped, a huge grin split his face. Neji was perfect! He and Neji had become pretty good friends and he knew the white eyed boy was not seeing anyone. Now he only had to convince the young Hyuga to agree. "Hi Neji!"

Neji had to hide a grin at the exuberantly waving boy. "Naruto."

The blonde bounced up to the Hyuga like a bunny on sugar. "Hey, Neji, you know about me and Sasuke right?" Naruto asked. Though really, he knew he did. Who didn't? Sasuke had made it very clear to everyone the day after they got together that Naruto was his, and his alone. Ah, Sasuke's jealousy and possessiveness at work. What a lovely thing.

Neji tried not to scowl at the question. Of course he knew about Sasuke and Naruto. That uptight bastard Uchiha had made sure of it. He could still remember how pointed he had been when Neji was around. The Hyuga didn't think that traitor deserved someone as amazing as Naruto. But as long as Naruto was happy, he wouldn't interfere.

Neji nodded. Naruto continued. "We're friends right?"

At that, the older boy blinked. Why would Naruto ask him that? "Of course." He replied softly, giving Naruto a questioning look.

"And friends help each other right?"

"Yes," the long haired boy answered slowly. Where was Naruto going with this? He watched with no small amount of trepidation as Naruto grinned like a maniac.

"Then will you help me make Sasuke jealous!" The blonde asked in one breathe. Really, it was amazing that Neji was able to understand that. But understand it he did. Though understanding what he said and understanding why he wanted that were two very different things.

"You want me to help you make Sasuke jealous?" The blonde nodded his head rapidly, blonde locks flying. "Why? You already know he likes you, why make him jealous?" Really, it was hard to understand Naruto sometimes.

"Because it's fun!" Neji blinked. Naruto elaborated. "He gets all flushed, and his eyes go all steely, and he completely changes from the ice prince he's labeled as. He totally can't keep his emotionless facade. It's great! And he's just so cute!"

Neji stared. Was Naruto joking? "How exactly do you want me to help you?"

Naruto seemed to deflate slightly at that. "Oh, um, well..." Neji just waited patiently. "I guess you would have to, well, hit on me. Around him. You know pretend you like me?" Naruto looked up at Neji with unsure eyes. Maybe this was asking too much?

Neji completely froze at that. Was Naruto giving him permission to hit on him? No, more like telling him to hit on him? If it wasn't for that fact that he doesn't dream, he would pinch himself to make sure.

Naruto rubbed the back of his head, smiling sheepishly. "Um, sorry Neji. I guess that's a little much to ask huh? Just forget about it. I'll just..."

"I'll do it."

Naruto looked up at the pale eyed boy in shock. "Huh?"

"I said I'll do it. I'll help you make Uchiha jealous."

Naruto stared. Neji was really going to help him? No way. "Really? Why?"

Neji almost floundered at that. What could he say? Because I secretly like you and would like to be given an excuse to touch you? Because I would like to piss off that bastard who gets to be with you? No, he really couldn't say that. Or at least not exactly that. So he modified it a bit. "Because you're my friend." Naruto's eyes lit up. "And because I don't really like Sasuke and would like to see him worked up." There, that was very close to the truth.

Naruto simply chuckled. He knew Neji and Sasuke weren't that fond of each other, but he didn't really mind. They always at least tried to be civil when around him, and mostly ignored each other. Though he really didn't understand why they didn't like each other... oh well. It didn't matter. Besides, Neji was going to help him! His day just kept getting better and better.

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

The following day Naruto managed to sneak out to meet Neji when Sasuke was busy with a mission. Bouncing into the predetermined meeting spot, Naruto grinned as he found the white eyed boy already waiting for him. "Hey Neji!"

Neji nodded in response. They were here today to set up there first 'prank'. Seating himself across from Naruto on a fallen tree stump, he gazed at the blonde in front of him. Last night he had been questioning just why he had agreed to help Naruto with his crazy plans. But looking at the adorable boy before him he remembered. "So Naruto," he began when the blonde had finally quit his happy babbling about how fun this was going to be and how Sasuke was going to react and how thankful he was Neji was willing to help. "When would be a good time for me to show up?"

The whiskered boy bit his lip in thought for a moment. "I was thinking. Whenever Sasuke gets back from a mission, we always go out to eat. You know, like a mini celebraton. Maybe you could show up at the restaurant?"

Neji thought for a moment. That could work. "Yes, that would be exceptable, except it would have to be a restaurant without too many people. That way its easier to get close to you two."

"How about the ramen place? I haven't asked for Ramen in forever! I'm sure he'll take me there if I ask. Lately we've gone to places he likes anyway. What do you think?" Naruto looked up at him hopefully.

Neji nodded. "Yes, that would work. Plus, I could maneuver to sit on the stool next to you. It will suit." Nartuto grinned happily at this. Not only was his idea good, but he gets to eat Ramen. Yay!

Neji stood up, Naruto following suit. Halting Naruto with a hand before he turned to leave, the long haired boy locked serious eyes onto bright blue one's. "One more thing. For this to work, you're going to have to pretend that you don't know I like you."

Neji watched as Naruto blinked at the 'like you' part, thought a moment, then looked up at him with a wink. "Right, 'like me'." Naruto chuckled. "I can do that."

Of course you can, Neji thought dryly. You've been doing it for months now already. You have plenty of practice. Not that you know that of course. Mentaly shaking his head at the cute boys obliviousness, Neji looked at Naruto. "Very well. As long as you can do that then I can do the rest. Though I expect some good sparing sessions in the future as payment."

Naruto nodded his head enthusiastically, a wide grin splitting his face. "Of course!"

Neji smiled. Tomorrow was going to be an...interesting day. To say the least.

A/N: There you go. Chapter one of Fit to Be Tied. I hope you liked it. Next chapter: Sasuke, the restaurant, and a flirting Neji. A recipe for disaster. :P

IMPORTANT NOTE: I'm moving in about a week. Hopefully I'll have another chapter up before that, but in case I don't I'm warning you now. After the move I won't have internet access for one to two weeks. So I won't be able to post for a while. However, during that time I'll try and write a lot so when I can post again I'll be able to make up for it. :)

Thanks for reading. Please review! If I get a lot of reviews, I'll make sure to get a second chapter out in time.
