For all of you who have read my other story "Forgive Me, I Have Sinned," I kinda have no idea where I'm going with that story so I started a new one. I thought of this one when I received a pen pal, from Mozambique, in English class. Enjoy!


Sasuke and his closest friends—Neji, Ino, Kiba, and Shikamaru—had just gotten out of school and were headed towards the Uchia mansion.

"Welcome home, Sasuke-san!" Kakashi called in a sing-song manner. "Ah I see you invited your friends over. Welcome everyone! Sasuke-san, since they're all here I suppose I'll give you this later." Kakashi said waving a light orange envelope in the air.

"Is it from—"

"Unfortunately yes, but it would be rude to ignore your guests. So it can wait." Kakashi's eyes glittered with mischief. In Kakashi's opinion, Sasuke was as boring as a person could get. So, he took every opportunity he got to tease Sasuke.

"Who's that from? It's a secret girl you never told us about, right? Am I right? Am I? So does that mean you're straight? Is that why you won't date Ino?" Kiba asked pummeling Sasuke with questions. "Man! I always thought you were fucking asexual! Dammit. Here." He handed Ino two hundred dollars.

"Language, Kiba-san." Kakashi warned, although he didn't really care. However, he knew all of them were from highly respected—not to mention wealthy—families. So common etiquette was an important thing in their lives.

"Pardon my rudeness, sir." Kiba said in his formal voice.

"You guys betted on my sexuality!? And two hundred dollars at that?! But since you guys did, Ino, return the money to Kiba. You're both wrong. I'm neither asexual nor heterosexual."

"So are you homo or bi?" Kiba questioned curiously.

"Hn. Figure out yourself." Replied Sasuke curtly as the group of teens filtered into the next room leaving Sasuke and Kakashi alone.

"Give. It. To. Me!" Sasuke growled through gritted teeth. Kakashi chuckled. Sasuke never showed emotion; yet he always became so vicious, then desperate when Kakashi teased him over those letters.

Sasuke swiped the letter out of the man's hands and scurried off to read it.


Dearest Sasuke,

My lonely prince, I was heartbroken when you told me you were feeling lonely in your last letter. I wish I could just appear beside you and hug you 'til that feeling goes away. But, I was so happy when I read the rest of your letter…well except the ending.

I'm so glad you asked me to come and spend the New Years with you! I'd love to come over. After all, we've been doing this for over eight years and never once have we met each other. I've always dreamed of what Sasuke's voice might sound like! Only four more days 'til I come for you! I'm soooooo excited! I love Sasu-sama! Sasu-sama is the best prince in the universe!

I'm sorry to hear that things are going that way with you and Neji. However, from what you've told me, he always complies with you. So I suggest that you reject him next time. Reject him before he has time to mess with your head. Take care, okay? Be safe!

Lots of Love,

Naruto

P.S. +Jumps on Sasu-sama and kisses him full on the lips+


Sasuke walked into the living room, where his friends were mingling, smile still plastered on his face.

"Holy fuck! He's smiling! He's smiling! Is that even possible?" Kiba yelled in shock, then he grinned. "It was a note from your girlfriend you little liar."

Kiba launched himself onto Sasuke, stealing the note and reading it out loud.

"Sasuke-kun?" Ino asked. Everyone stared at Sasuke in a questioning manner as Kiba kept reading.

Sasuke growled in annoyance and took the letter back before the dumb brunette had a chance to read the last paragraph.

"So…you're gay?" Kiba asked cocking his head to the side. Sasuke really couldn't stand looking at that idiotic face anymore, so he shoved it into the black, leather couch.

"Who is he?" Neji questioned. "Why haven't you ever told us about him, Sasuke?" Neji sounded very, very angry. His voice was dripping venom.

"Are you kidding? He's my pen pal! We all got one eight years ago, after Kakashi taught us how to write business letters in English." Sasuke stated in shock. His pen pal was basically his reason to live.

"You?! Out of all people kept your pen pal for eight freakin' years? Damm! I'm beginning to think you are some stranger…wait a minute…who are you?! Where's Sasuke! This is not the Sasuke I know. AHHHHH!" Neji and Ino shoved Kiba back into the couch in attempt to shut him up.

"I couldn't read my pen pal's writing so I discontinued the letters." Ino causally dismissed.

"Too troublesome." Shikamaru sighed, that being the first thing he said all afternoon.

"I didn't like my pen pal." Said Neji.

"Me either!" Kiba cheered with great zeal. "Actually… I just forgot about him. Hahahaha…eh?" Kiba ate leather yet another time that day.

" So if Naru- what's his face, is only a pen pal—"Neji started

"His name is Naruto" Sasuke said coolly

"Naruto, okay. Anyways if he is only a pen pal, why did he call you his prince and what was up with all the lovey dovey stuff?" Neji questioned still holding on to the anger in his voice.

"Yeah, yeah!" Kiba cheered but shut up and stuck his own head in the couch when everyone glared at him.

"Naruto and I—I, I'm not sure—" Sasuke trailed off. He didn't know what to say. He had no idea what relationship the two of them were in. They acted like long distance lovers, but truth be told, they've never physically met. Was there a relationship like that they could classify themselves as? He really did like his dobe-chan, but...

Sasuke sat on the arm rest of the couch Kiba was stuck in while he pondered deeply. Everyone shifted in uncomfortable silence until Neji broke the tight tension.

"Let's leave Sasuke. We can see him tomorrow at school, right Sasuke?"

"Hn."

"Bye Sasuke-kun." Ino called

"Later dude." Kiba chimed in.

"Good evening." Shikamaru said following the others out to say their farewells to Kakashi. Neji stayed.


Neji knew Sasuke very well. They had been best friends ever since they were babies, before Sasuke's life was screwed over. He was the only one in the gang who knew what really happened to Sasuke's family. And like wise, Sasuke knew Neji and his problems with his uncle.

"What's wrong, Sasuke? You know you can tell me anything." Neji insisted in his caring voice, making it almost sound like he was purring.

"I don't know. You knew I still communicated with my pen pal, but I never said much about it." Yes, Neji smiled. He was the only one Sasuke trusted; he was the only one Sasuke showed emotion to. And he liked it that way. He became very possessive over what was his, after his father and his own life had been stolen from him. And Neji decided that Sasuke belonged to him.

He guided Sasuke to his bedroom locking the door behind him. Although it was Sasuke's room, Neji felt that he had a privilege of doing such things since Sasuke practically belonged to him.

"Neji, he's just like me…an orphan, I mean. He's been through the same things I have. I know you're an orphan too, but you have your uncle. He and I, we have strangers. I have Kakashi, one of my parent's friends whom I had never met before the incident and he lives with his adoptive father. Sometimes it's easier to talk to him then you." Sasuke said but immediately regretted it as he saw Neji's anger return to life.

Fear flickered through Sasuke's eyes, so he did the only thing he could think of. He leaned in and kissed Neji lightly on the lips. "But he'll never replace you. You're my best friend."

"Of course." Neji snorted as he laid Sasuke on his back.

Sasuke whimpered.


It was 12:47 am. Neji had left and Sasuke had finished his homework. The raven sat at his desk scribbling away.

Dear Naruto,

My sweet angel, you'll be able to take my loneliness away in a few days. You'll soon be able to rescue me from the darkness. But I thought you'd like to know that I was just as excited as you were to receive your letter. So much that I made a complete fool out of myself today.

With this letter I'm sending you a plane ticket. It's for this Friday. The plane won't depart until 6:45 pm; which should give you plenty of time to rest up after school before boarding the plane. This New Year we won't be alone okay? We'll be each other's family.

I was thinking today what kind of relationship the two of us are in—I know it sounds sappy…especially coming form me—but I decided that we both like each other and we're family we can figure out the specifics later on. What do you think?

I thought you might be happy to know that I took your advice and denied Neji today. Although, I did kiss him to control his anger, sorry, I'm trying. He seemed awfully angry, but at least I don't feel dirty. I'm afraid for his cousin though, because of me she might have to suffer today.

Oh, and before I forget, don't bother to reply, because even if you do, you'll arrive before it does.

Sincerely,

Uchia, Sasuke

P.S. +I grab you and plop you on my lap while I ravish your neck and whisper 'I'm waiting for you, come, come for me'+

P.S.S. In case you're too big of a dobe-chan to get what I said above…I meant it both ways.


Sasuke placed the letter in faded, blue envelope on his desk and hopped into bed. He stared at a photo he had of Naruto before turning out his lamp and drifting of to blissful sleep.

'Goodnight, my angel.' Sasuke thought, even though he knew it was daytime in America, where his little blonde lived. 'I'm waiting for you.'
