That song, that annoying song, it wouldn't stop playing it just kept getting louder. The aggravated blond with a pillow on top of his head vaguely remembered the upbeat song as his favorite, but now it was life's favorite instrument of torture for him. He didn't know what had possessed him to put it as his alarm. Times like these his own stupidity amazed him.
Even though with the irritating sound the young man didn't want to move. He just wanted to stay the rest of the day lay in bed without having to deal with the troubles of the day. Then as the song began again he felt something snap within him. The blond was no longer able to withstand the annoying sound. He brought his tanned hand out of the warm embrace provided by his blanket, and unlocked his cellphone effectively silencing the alarm. The room falling eerily silent, along with the rest of the apartment.
Sitting up on his small and comfortable bed, feet dangling off the edge. Blue eyes blinked multiple times to focus but everything remained blurry. Understanding why Naruto reached over towards his nightstand and grabbed his glasses.
Putting them on, he looked around his own small room. It was as naked as a new born baby regarding furniture, but nothing made the blond happier. He knew the little in the room was completely his own. He smiled at the thought, and jumped off the bed.
"Okay, let's get ready." He said to himself as he rushed to the restroom. Another ordinary day in the life of Uzumaki Naruto. He simply went through the motions of the morning like he did every morning.
A few minutes passing by fairly quickly, he stared at himself in the mirror deeming himself ready with his blond hair patted down and his clothing ironed. He looked at the time, deciding that it was time to go to work he made his way out the door.
The young man took the bus halfway through his destination, but after looking outside he decided it was too much of beautiful day to not enjoy. He hoped off the bus and walked through the various streets that separated him from his workplace. His curious eyes moving from skyscraper to skyscraper. Enjoying the view of the peaceful scenery of the big city. His first stop in the city being a small cafe that stood out in the world of skyscrapers.
"Good morning, Naruto-kun." The girl in her uniform greeted the blond as he walked in. The light steps she took echoing through the empty coffee shop.
"Same as usual?" She asked in her sweet tiny voice.
"Yup." The blond answered looking around, his eyes absently landing at the clock hanging on the wall. The analog clock reading four past twenty. He still had an hour and ten minutes to get to work.
The girl moved behind the counter tucking a stray strand of black hair behind her ear, the flicker of light from her ring grabbing Naruto's attention. "Say, how are things with Kiba, Hinata?" He inquired about the female's husband, the ring reminding him of his friend's marriage. He watched as a smile etched itself shyly on her face.
"It's great." She said earnestly placing the stack of beverages into the blond's awaiting arms. "It doesn't seem to matter how long it's been, it's still amazing."
"That's great to hear, Hinata." Naruto smiled as he began to walk out, but he remembered it was his work day. The blond turned on his heel to confirm, the top coffees swaying slightly. "My shift is still at nine, right?" he asked the female who simply nodded.
Receiving the necessary information, the blond walked out of the shop balancing the beverages while opening the door with his foot. A huge smile on his face as he yelled his farewells towards the pale eyed woman.
Walking the rest of the way Naruto made it to the largest and tallest skyscraper of them all. Going inside he had to close his eyes for a moment as the brightness of the lobby almost blinded him. The janitor in his opinion did too much of a good job.
When the blond managed to reopen his eyes he was greeted by a hoard of squealing and shouting women running past him, causing him to almost drop the drinks. The blond cursed them silently, before making sure that he had spilled nothing. He knew he should be accustomed to it, since they waited every morning at the same time to reach the elevator before it closed.
He ignored the women as they gathered around the lobby. The blond skillfully placed a coffee at the security guard's desk receiving no sort of thanks, and made his way to the higher floors receiving the same ingratitude. It wasn't surprising in Naruto's daily life that no one that he handed a coffee to ever thank him. It was his job after all, the job of a simple intern of the company to do whatever someone bided him to do without receiving any sort of recognition.
The only part of his internship that he wished would be terminated was the Intern's board. The employees on his floor had placed a board above his workspace and would occasionally place multiple sticky notes on it. Each sticky note had an assignment that he needed to do. If he did not do they had threatened to convince his boss to fire him. He looked at the board and read the few that were placed on it.
The copier is jammed. Fix it! That was easy
Clean up the offices! Those damn lazy pigs but manageable.
Suck my dick! Nope. He crumpled the small piece of paper and threw it in the trash can. He had gotten worse, at least today he had none that had to be done in the city. Usually there would be at least one telling him to get doughnuts or some sort of snack from a specific location that would be on the other side of the city. He knew it was just to torture him, in truth the entire idea of the board was made to make his life a living hell but having to waste money on transportation was a problem he was barely making it.
After he had finished unjamming the copier. He made his way into the darkened room where his boss had made his nest. The room was colder than any other section in the building the AC probably cranked into the lowest temperature available. Naruto could almost swear if he stayed in the room any longer he would turn into a human Popsicle.
"Mizuki, I'm here." He informed the man sleeping on his desk, the smell of alcohol invading his nostrils. The man just lifted his head and gave Naruto a glare. Taking that as a cue the blond stepped towards the heat of humanity. Taking all the papers on the desk before he left the room. He noted that the coldness hadn't come from the Ac like he had first believed, but from the cold hearted drunk.
Looking at the papers he began to work. He was used to taking his employer's place. He remembered his first day and the drunk simply telling him to work on the papers. He had never been so confused in his life but he taught himself the art of sales management, and if he did say so himself he was downright awesome at it.
Why did he do the man's work? The blond needed the years of experience and what better thing to have on his résumé than the fact that he worked in the best corporation in the entire country. That would all go to the toilet if the idiot of his employer got fired and dragged him down with him.
Therefore without complaint the small blond would sit down on the floor in front of Mizuki's office and answer phone calls, along with fill out paperwork on the floor. Did he get a desk to do the man's job? No, he did not. Why because his employer decided that wasting money on booze was better than getting the blond a decent work place. If anyone ever did come near him it was to give him more work, or to place sticky notes on the board above his head.
Naruto sighed taking out his mp3 player and putting on his orange earphones. It was time to get to work and music always seemed to get him through the day. Song after song, made time seem to pass by relatively fast. The boy continuously wrote the necessary things on papers and answered calls without a break. After eight hours the blond dropped his pen, massaging his hand to get some feeling back.
"Done." He said as he smiled at the stack of finish work. He stretched his aching muscles. Being in the same position all day was taking a toll on him. He looked around and noticed that there were still some employees left. He thought of the trip back home feeling too lazy to get up.
"I'll just take a small nap and I'll go home." He leaned back on the wall wiggling around to find a good position when he found it, he let his eyes droop. "Just five minutes." He reassured himself.
As time passed by more people left the office to go home. The sunlight the windows let in became nonexistent as night descended. The blond still snoozing peacefully in slumber land.
Naruto felt a nudge on his sides. He tried to swat the thing nudging him away but it continued. He opened his eyes to see a pair of polished shoes in front of him. Confused the blond sat up from his fetal position on the floor, pushing up his glasses so he could clearly see in front of him
A man in a nice pressed black suit that matched his hair and his eyes stood before him. The pale man must have been favored by the gods because they took their time making him. He was drop dead handsome the type of man every women dreamed about.
"Umm...hello?" Naruto greeted unsurely, not sure if he was having a dream or if someone was actually there. "Can I help you with something?" He asked rubbing the back of his neck trying to get rid of the prickling pain from sleeping on the uncomfortable floor.
"Actually, you can. I want to know how a homeless man managed to get into the building." The deep voice emitted from the man surprised the intern wondering if the man even had a flaw, his voice was simply majestic. It took him a while to understand what the man said and when he did his face lit up with a neon like red blush.
"No, you got it all wrong. I have a home. I just finished working and I dozed off." He explained pointing at his work and pretty much everywhere, trying to keep his voice from cracking.
"Hn." The male grunted sitting down next to the blond. "Is this all you did today." The man said grabbing a paper from the huge stacked papers, analyzing the paper the blond had finished. The blond nodded as his response analyzing the man.
"Did you get lost on your way to the office, Dobe? That you decided to just sleep on the floor." Naruto glared at the male next to him. "I don't have an office, teme."
The blond's comment and insult seemed to have taken the man a little back. When he recovered a smirk played on his lips. "What's your name?"
"Uzumaki Naruto. I'm Mizuki's intern." The blond said introducing himself.
He extended his hand to shake the man's hand. Instead the raven placed the papers on them. Naruto withheld his anger like a leash meant for a Chihuahua would restrain a pit bull. Straining a smile, he took the papers placing them aside.
"A simple intern is doing the job of a sales manager?" The man asked, examining the boy next to him. "That's pretty impressive."
Naruto's pride swelled and the grin on his face looked as if it would split his face in half. "You really think so? Say, are you a new employee on this floor? Because see this board if you ever need anything I can bring it to you. I'm like the floor's gopher." The blond said leaning on his knees and talking to the man animatedly. The simple compliment enlightening the boy's mood. "I go to the coffee shop every morning to get everyone something. You're supposed to leave the money on your desk with a sticky note of your order, but one ever changes it. But, anyways, since tomorrow is your first day here, I'll buy it for free. What's your favorite drink?"
Onyx eyes were wide with surprise how did someone manage to talk so much with just a gulp of air. He stared a while longer at the boy tilting his head like a fox, waiting for an answer.
"Black coffee." He responded, the blond pulled down his sleeve and wrote it on his arm. "Okay."
The raven in the spur of the moment took the intern's and wrote a room number. "You can deliver it to me here."
"Sure, what's your name?" The blond asked finally reaching the million dollar question.
"Uchiha Sasuke." The man responded returning the boy's arm. He watched the blond's face for any sort of recognition. When he showed no signs of knowing he was the CEO of the company, the raven smirked.
