So I wanted to do a side story apart from my regular story and it's my favorite couple. Sasuke and Naruto. Wooot!!! Oh, this chapter is totally dedicated to my favorite writer stealth gato. If you haven't read a piece of her work, you need to. Awesome lemons and adorable situations. Enjoy and I don't own Naruto.

My Friendly Protector

"I'm sorry Naruto, I just don't see you as a man."

With those words, Naruto's world fell apart as he fell on his knees, his face a mask of utter disbelief and horror. He couldn't believe it. They had been dating for two years now and were supposed to be graduating this June. They had even gone to their senior prom together and it had been fun, at least for Naruto. They were supposed to be going to the same prestigious college too: Akatsuki College.

They were the top of their class. The perfect couple and were voted most likely to succeed and get married. But that won't happen because Sakura just broke up with him. Well it was still hazy but he was sure. Somehow he made his way back to his house and lay on the bed, under the covers. His cell phone rang and when he didn't pick it up, Sasuke arrived fie minutes later.

"So how did the talk with Sakura go?"

"Oh, it was wonderful," Naruto moaned from under the covers.

"Yep, horrible as predicted. When a girl says, 'We have to talk,' you better buy her a rose, a ring and some chocolates. She might change her mind about breaking up with you."

"Sasuke, you teme, YOU ARE NOT HELPING!!!" Naruto screamed as he pulled off the covers to glare at him.

"At least now I can see your face."

"God, you don't get it. Girls have always flocked to you. You always break up with them and not the other way around. You already dated her during freshman year, did you see this coming? Did you plan this?"

"I warned you, didn't I? You were so happy she asked you out but I knew she was on major rebound."

"Yes, any girl who's ever dated you will have a major heartbreak, we know, and I don't care."

"So she asked you out because you were closest to me and she's just plain jealous of our relationship."

"But you don't understand. I've loved her since elementary school and when she confessed to me, I felt like I've found my other half. I felt so happy and alive. Then today, I just feel…numb…"

"So what did she say?" Sasuke asked with a serious expression.

"You want the blow by blow embarrassment? Well, we had come out of our last period class and was walking toward our favorite spot to have the so-called 'talk'. We sat there a while, looking a the scenery and just admiring the view. At least I was."

"Your girlfriend wanted to talk to you and you are busy admiring the scenery?"

"I couldn't help it. I didn't know it was going to be this serious. If I had known, at least I would have pretended to be attentive."

"Yeah, so what happened, go on," Sasuke inquired as he sat down on the mat, on the floor.

"So we start talking about what a great time we had at prom and how the last two years had been amazing."

"Oh God, here comes the but," Sasuke groaned.

"So she said, 'I'm sorry Naruto, I just don't see you as a man.'" Naruto said as he burst out crying again,

"Wow, didn't see that coming…wait, that sounds like…," Sasuke started as he remembered.

"I'm sorry Sakura, but I just don't see you as a woman."

"Sounds like what?"

"Oh, nothing," Sasuke said with a weird expression on his face.

Naruto who was too busy crying to pay attention went on and on about how pitiful his life is and how he would never get into the college he wanted and how nobody loved him, which was when Sasuke got up from the floor and sat on the bed with him.

"Hey, listen," Sasuke said softly, "We've been friends for how long now?"

"Since kindergarten when the girls tried to dress you up with jewelry and blush?"

"Yeah, uh…we go way back."

"Oh yeah, and your face was all red, I thought it was the blush but when they wiped it off, you were still red in the face. You were totally blushing."

"Uh-huh, and this is about you not about-

"And then everyone started making fun of you and saying what a girl you were, although the guys had strange bruises springing up during the next week. I always knew it was you," Naruto said as he laughed through the tears falling down.

"At least, you're not crying anymore and if you think no one love you, you're wrong. I love you and will always be with you. And now we can go to the same college together."

"I guess so but you would have gotten into Akatsuki College too if you didn't cut class and spend your entire time racing across town on your motorcycle."

"It's fun and you should try it sometime," Sasuke said with his usual sneer.

"No way and I getting on that. It's a straight road to death."

"Chicken!"

"I'm not a chicken, I'm a man."

"Nope, you're not," Sasuke said and then realized what he said as he watched Naruto's smiling face crumble.

"Oh God, that's not what I meant to say," Sasuke said as he tried to placid Naruto.

"Yes you did, even you believe that too. God, I wish I were a girl, I bet could understand better."

"Yeah, but you wouldn't have dated Sakura or be dumped by her," Sasuke said as he laughed.

Naruto cried only harder as he covered himself with his blanket.

College

Naruto gazed about in bewilderment as he walked toward the looming gates of his new college. It was an all boys college and it was such a relief to be away from all the girls and especially Sakura. It seemed that she showed up everywhere he went. Sasuke thought that she was trying to rub it in his face while Naruto thought that she was just being considerate.

"Hey, look where you are going," a boy snapped as Naruto swung around to face him. As the boy got a look at his face, he blushed and patted Naruto on the shoulder.

"Oh, it's my fault. I'm a second-year and it's always so crowed. What's your name?"

"Uzumaki Naruto," Naruto said with relief. He didn't want to get on anyone's bad side.

"Well, you're kind of cute, in a manly way. Would you like to come get some cappuccino after you get yourself situated."

"That won't be necessary," Sasuke said as he moved between them. He turned his icy glare on the other.

"Oh would you look at the time, it seems like it's time to go, see you later Naruto," the boy said as he slowly backed away,

"No! You! Will! Not!" Sasuke said, punctuating every word.

"Of course not, bye," the guy said before running off.

"That was so rude Sasuke-kun," Naruto said pouting.

"A boy just asked you out and you would have said yes."

"Wait you mean, asked out as in ask, ask?" Naruto replied with disbelief.

"Yes you idiot. You probably would have ended up being raped before you know it," Sasuke said with a sneer.

"Ugh, that's so gross."

"C'mon, let's go see own dorm."

As they walked across the courtyard toward the building, Naruto got more strange looks and perverted gestures. It was too bad he couldn't see most of them because Sasuke was in front and glared at anyone and everyone who stared at Naruto the wrong way. They got to their room and entered. Sasuke went to the closet to dump his duffel bag in while Naruto ran to the window to look outside.

"We got an awesome view Sasuke-kun," Naruto said as he grinned.

"Yeah, it's beautiful" Sasuke agreed as he looked at Naruto.

"So, are you a top person or a bottom?" Naruto asked still staring out the window.

The question took Sasuke my surprise and he said the first thing that popped into his mind.

"Top, of course."

"Baka, you're scared of heights so you sleep at the bottom."

"Huh, oh yeah, bottom, right," Sasuke mumbled as he stumbled over to his bed.

"Are you okay, you're all red in the face," Naruto said as he finally turned around.

"I'm fine," Sasuke said.

"Are you sure?" Naruto asked again as he walked over to Sasuke and put a hand on his forehead, clueless to the effect he has on Sasuke.

"Jeez, I said I was fine," Sasuke growled as he pushed Naruto away and unto the floor.

"Ow, Sasuke, I was just worried about you," Naruto said pitifully as he lay on the floor.

"Go take a fucking shower and leave me alone," Sasuke said as he climbed unto the bed and turned away from Naruto.

"Fine, I think you should take a shower too so you feel fresh," Naruto mumbled as he walked out.

"Whatever," Sasuke mumbled right back.

He lay on the bed with his thoughts and emotions in jumbles. How can he be so naïve, is he really that stupid sometimes? Damn Sasuke, get a hold of yourself. You're his friend and nothing more. Even if he agrees to love you, it's only because he's still heartbroken. You'll just be another rebound guy. Besides, he needs time. Like being alone in the shower, naked and soap running down his lean chest and down his navel and toward…AS THOSE FUCKING PERVERTS STARE AT HIM!!!

Sasuke jumped out of bed and stripped his clothes off as he ran toward the bathhouse. As he entered, he saw Naruto pouring water down his back as he tossed his hair backwards. He also noticed that he wasn't the only one staring. There was an older classmen who was reaching a hand toward Naruto and Sasuke pitched his soap at him. He was always good at baseball.

"Sasuke-kun, did you decide to take a bath too?" Naruto said as he opened his eyes. Unfortunately he still had soap on his face and it seeped into his open eyes.

"OH MY FUCKING GOD, MY EYES!!!" Naruto screamed.

Sasuke swore and ran toward him. He grabbed the first bucket of water he found and threw it in Naruto's face. Naruto was still flaring about on the floor so the water hit his hair which released more soapy water into Naruto's eyes. Naruto screamed some more and Sasuke, running out of buckets grabbed him and carried him, bridal style, toward the showers. He turned on the water on full blast and shot it directly into Naruto's face as he murmured sweet nothings to him.

"Sasuke-kun," Naruto whimpered.

"It's okay Naruto, you're going to be fine," Sasuke said as he smiled down at the boy in his arms. Sasuke pulled him closer and pressed his body against his. Both boys were aware of the warmth of the other and unconsciously held each other tighter. So tight they could feel the heartbeat of the other. So tight, each was getting hard without realizing it.

So I'm going to break it into two parts and it looks like a nice place to stop. Hee-hee, lemons in next chappie, tell me what you think. Review.
