PROLOGUE
"Oi, dobe, how did we get here again?" a young man asked, his dark raven hair dusted with dirt and sand. He wore a school-like uniform including a dark blue tie, a mint blue school shirt and dark gray dress pants. A young man with golden blond hair, now dirty blond, sat next to him wearing the same type of clothes, had his golden head rested on the raven's shoulder.
"The stupid school field trip…" the blonde muttered, wiping sweat off his brow.
The raven sighed and looked away from the blond quietly. It was true. That was how it had all started, just an innocent school field trip to a small deserted town, and the two boys had been left behind.
CHAPTER ONE
"Nya! Hurry up! We're gonna be late now because of you!"
"I hate math and I bet you do too…" It was a normal school day for the two boys. The raven walked after the blonde who was racing towards their classroom.
"Come on Sasuke! I don't like being late!" the blonde said, picking up his pace.
"Fine, go on without me!" Sasuke growled.
"No, just hurry up, puh-leez!" Naruto said, running his hand through his golden hair. Sasuke caught up to him and they raced into their classroom just as the bell went off. Their sensei watched them go to their seats, right in the front and sat together. "Alright children!" she sounded. "As you know we have a major test tomorrow-" and she was cut off by some students moaning. "But anyway, I'm giving you today's period to study these equations for Friday's test! You may have one partner to work with, but that is all!"
Just as the teacher finished, hushed whispers filled the room as students began to talk, but not about math of course. The children began forming groups of four instead of two, ignoring the teacher at the front of the room. Sasuke and Naruto joined their desks together, and then Neji, Shikamaru, and Kiba joined. Their conversation started up right away.
"Oi, did you hear about the field trip to a deserted town somewhere around like 20 miles away?" Kiba started off. Neji said nothing while everyone else nodded.
"You'll be right at home eh, Sasuke?" the brunette poked fun.
"Oh stop. I'm sure you would find a pack of wolves right away!" the raven countered. Kiba snorted in disagreement. Naruto looked from Kiba to Sasuke.
"Don't be like that Kiba-kun!" he said to the brunette. "But besides, when is the trip?"
"Next week on Monday, so in four days and also, my party is on Saturday night. Bring anyone you want, just remember to bring girls too..." he snickered.
"Iie, don't be such a baka..." Shikamaru spoke up. "We all know only a couple people are coming anyway."
Sasuke looked at Shikamaru. Good time for him to speak up. Kiba and Shikamaru were now in a heated discussion, so Sasuke turned to Naruto, since Neji probably wouldn't talk to him.
"You going to dog boy's party?"
"Yeah, p-probably..."
"Ah, you guys close friends?"
Naruto nodded quietly and looked away from the raven, his face a bit flushed. The blonde looked at the clock to distract himself.
"Maa! It's last period!" said the blonde and he put his arms behind his head like usual and smiled. The raven watched him quietly. "Last period, my favorite..." Sasuke mumbled.
Everyone became quiet in the room as they all began to watch the clock. Naruto ignored it slightly and began doodling in one of his notebooks; Sasuke would glance at the clock in between watching Naruto doodle and listening to Neji and Kiba talk about nonsense; Shikamaru had fallen asleep.
"C'mon stupid bell..." Sasuke muttered.
"Remember students! Test on Tuesday! It's been moved! Teacher's meeting is tomo-" she was interrupted by the ring of the bell. All the students rushed to the door to get out, but Sasuke and Naruto sat in their seats until everyone else left the classroom, then they got up and left to go to their lockers.
Soon as they got there, both boy's pulled open their lockers and tried to organize them a bit, putting all their books away for the weekend. "Sasuke, what are you doing tomorrow since we have off?" the blonde asked suddenly. Sasuke and Naruto both had bottom lockers since they were only sophomores. The raven sat up and looked at him. "Eh? I don't know, probably stay at home and relax..." he answered Naruto's question and closed his locker, locking the large lock on it quietly.
"Oh, I-I was wondering if maybe I could come visit..." the blonde said a bit shyly. Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "I don't see why not, but my oniichan might say otherwise but I'll try to work something out, kay?"
Naruto smiled and nodded. "Hai, just tell him a friend's coming over!" he giggled, closing and locking his own locker.
They sat there quietly before Naruto must have suddenly remembered something as he pulled his book bag over his shoulder and pulled open the zipper, pulling out a folded sheet of paper and handed it to Sasuke while closing his book bag. "Maa, I drew it during class for you Sasuke," Naruto smiled shyly. The raven raised an eyebrow and unfolded the sheet of paper to see a detailed picture of... himself?
"Um..." was all Sasuke said at the moment as he looked down at the drawing. It was a pencil drawing of Sasuke gazing off into space, his eyes seeming to look out into the dark and his bangs hung over in his face, the collar of his shirt sticking up on the corners of his face. "Eh, Arigatou Naruto," he breathed, folding it back up and he put it into his shirt pocket. "I'll take it home and put it somewhere safe," the raven said smiling.
The blonde smiled and stood, then reached down and helped Sasuke up. They both smiled at each other and pounded knuckles before they both headed off for home.
OoOoOoOoO

Sasuke sighed as he began pulling his wash out of the dryer and folded it to put it in one of the baskets near him labeled 'Sasuke' or 'Itachi'. He muttered something under his breath as he began to fold up one of his school shirts. The raven suddenly stopped when he spotted something sticking out of the shirt's pocket. It was a worn piece of sketch paper... no...
His eyes widened as he slid out the crumbled piece of paper that had been washed, dried, and ruined. "Chikushou!" he cursed under his breath. It was now ruined, but he carefully took it and put it into one of the pockets in the jeans he was wearing. Sasuke sighed and pushed his glasses up higher on the bridge of his nose gently, then continued folding the wash.
"Oi! Itouto!" Sasuke heard someone call down the stairs. Why couldn't his brother come downstairs and talk? He sighed and responded clearly: "Nani? What is it? I'm busy!"
"Sorry! But your friend, the blonde, is outside in his car!"
"Tell him I'll be right up!"
"Alright!"
Sasuke sighed and folded up the last bits of clothes, put the baskets at one side of the room and raced up the stairs from the basement. He hated it down there; it always smelled like stale water and dirty socks. The raven hoped he didn't smell like dirty socks and musty water!
As he got to the kitchen, he pulled down the sleeves of his baby blue sweater, which was loose fitting and hung off his shoulders, the kind of sweaters he personally loved, with a dark purple T shirt under it with the neck cut so it hung on his shoulders, but higher up than the sweater. He also wore dark blue jeans that were loose but comfortable and not falling off his hips, and he also wore black socks. Sasuke turned a corner out of the large dining room (A/N: his house is pretty big) and into the living room where Naruto sat on the couch.
The blonde looked up at him and smiled. Today, the blonde was wearing a red jacket (A/N: sports kind) with a large orange number 3 on the back and he wore a light orange shirt under it. He also wore loose, baggy, dark khaki pants with many pockets on them. The blonde wore white socks and white sneakers to tie it all together.
"Oi! Sasuke-teme! I see you're wearing your glasses!" Naruto smiled up at him, his tan skin making his teeth look dazzling white.
Sasuke nodded. "So I am," he said, sitting next to the blonde on the couch. Naruto looked at him.
"Your nii-san led me to your living room, and just getting HERE was hard! Your place is huge!" he exaggerated by holding his arms out wide, almost knocking the glasses off Sasuke's face.
"Why do you say that?" the raven commented.
"Well, all I have is an apartment and you have almost this whole house to yourself!"
"Ne, I do, but I have to earn my keep and go to school."
"Maa! That must stink!" Naruto said jokingly. Sasuke shook his head gently and smiled at Naruto. "It's not all that bad though..." he said and Naruto smiled at him, then he looked up when his name was called: "Sasuke itouto... I see you found him..."
"Yes I did Itachi," Sasuke responded, looking at the older sibling who had coal black hair and dark eyes. He was standing on the stairs, looking down at the two. Itachi smiled and waved slightly to Naruto before going back up the stairs to study.
Sasuke shook his head gently as he watched his brother leave. "I would say, 'Let's go up to my room,' but since oniisan is up there, he'd probably yell at us..." he said as he turned to face Naruto. The blonde smiled. "It's alright; we can stay down here if you want."
"Sure, okay."
They became quiet, and then the blonde looked at Sasuke, his face flushed. "Neh, Sasuke..."
"Hai?"
"Um, I came over here to well, tell you something. Erm, I... I-I've been wanting to tell you for a long time, ever since grade school I guess I've felt this way. It's just that I didn't know how you might react, even though it seemed you felt the same way..." the blonde said, trying to hint something to the raven. Sasuke looked at him and pushed his glasses up higher on his nose. "What are you saying?" he asked and leaned in close to the blonde's face. Naruto's face turned a darker shade of pink.
"Boku..."
"Well, if you can't say it... you can show me..." the raven murmured to Naruto, urging him on.
The blonde looked away, his face flushed tomato red, and he took a deep breath.
"Boku no ai anata no desu!" he breathed. Sasuke tilted his head to the side in confusion. Did the blonde just say what he thought he said?
"I love you!" Naruto said as he whipped his head around to face Sasuke, to see his face, but instead, they were too close and their lips crashed together in a kiss, lasting for a few moments.
Suddenly, Naruto broke away and inched away from Sasuke, inching towards the arm of the couch. "I'm sorry!" he said and he sat, his arms wrapped around his knees.
Sasuke looked away quietly, not wanting to answer. "It's fine..." the boy murmured, sighing inwardly as his thoughts leaned toward Naruto. He knew that Sasuke had feelings for him. They had been friends forever! The blonde kept his eyes on Sasuke, but the raven wouldn't look at him. "Sasuke? Sasuke-kun?"
The raven raised his eyes from the ground and looked at the blond.
"Do... Do y-you feel the same? D-Do you feel the s-same a-about me?"
OoOoOoOoO
