Narufan4ev: Well, I'm back with another heart-warming story

Narufan4ev: Well, I'm back with another heart-warming story!

Sasuke: … Let me see the story…

Narufan4ev: Why? (hands over story notes)

Sasuke: I'm checking to see if it's complete crap or not.

Narufan4ev: … Dang you to heck, Sasuke… to heck…

Sasuke: Hmm, as I thought…

Naruto: What?

Sasuke: It's complete crap. What the hell? A BUS story? What does that even mean?

Narufan4ev: You'll see when I write it! I know it's not one of my BEST ideas but I kinda like it… and I ride the bus so BUS POWAH!

Sasuke: Just get it over with…

Naruto: Since I barely got any lines in this dialogue: Narufan4ev does NOT own Naruto and if she did she would not be waiting a week for the new chapter to come out…

Naruto stood calmly at the end of his driveway as he waited for the vehicle he had tenderly named 'the yellow reaper' (more commonly known as a school bus) as it poured. It was the first day of school and man was he excited. Can't you tell by his festive frown and gloomy sighs? Okay so he wasn't that excited… Well, what can you expect? He's a Junior now. He's done this high school thing for two years now and each time it actually meant something. As a Freshman you're excited for your first year of something close to more freedom and (of course) more choices in the cafeteria. As a Sophmore you're finally done with all that underclassman crap and you get to taste what it's like to be an UPPERclassman for the first time. Junior, you're just kinda there. So you can imagine why Naruto was indifferent to this year.

But these thoughts quickly faded from Naruto's head as 'the yellow reaper' came to take him away to the 'educational hell'. Yeah, Naruto named that one too. As the doors opened in front of him he saw a familiar white spiky hair-do-ed bus driver. He broke into a foxish grin as he boarded the bus.

"Yo, Perverted Hermit!" he greeted the driver enthusiastically. Jiraiya turned to return the grin.

"Hey, Brat! How was your summer?" Jiraiya asked.

"Meh, boring… but school's worse!" Naruto answered as he walked down the aisle high-fiving a few of his friends as he went. He finally sat down in an empty seat and the bus began to move.

"Naruto!" a squeaky voice said from behind his seat. He turned to see Konohamaru, Moegi, and Udon cramped into a seat together, all looking up at him with smiles. He turned completely around to return their smiles.

"Hey. You guys are entering 8th grade these year right?" Naruto asked.

"Yep! No more bullies!" Konohamaru exclaimed.

"Yeah! And one more year 'til High School!" Udon joined in. Moegi nodded enthusiastically.

"And then I can drive! It's gonna be so awesome!" she added in giggling. Naruto just sweat dropped at their exclamations.

"Yeah…" he said trying not to crush their dreams. He knew from experience that it wasn't gonna be that exciting. The bus ride continued on with them talking about each others summers and more people piled onto the bus. Everything was fine (Naruto even managed to keep his own seat) until they stopped at a driveway that they hadn't stopped at for 3 years. Everything went silent for Naruto as he abruptly turned towards the window. He pressed his face to the glass to get a clear image through the rain.

"No… it can't be…" he muttered to himself as watched the blurry figure step onto the bus. "It is…"

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura and Ino squealed from the back of the bus and then tried to push each other out of the seat so they could sit with Sasuke. Said Sasuke stepped onto the bus and ignored the two girls as he looked for another seat.

"Damn it! Don't look over… don't look over here…" Naruto muttered to himself trying to keep his head as low as possible.

"Naruto what are you doing?" Konohamaru asked from behind him genuinely concerned for his 'brother'.

"Nothing, I just don't want-"

"Hello Dobe," a cool voice said from beside him. He turned slowly to see Sasuke standing next to him and preparing to sit down. And the bus ride continued on.

"Hey! Who said you could sit there?!" Naruto said to the indifferent Uchiha taking up space in HIS seat. The least he could've done was ask. I mean, it's only polite!

"I did and everywhere else is full," Sasuke said smirking at the fuming blonde.

"I'm pretty sure there's a seat open at the back of the bus!" Naruto responded.

"Well, I don't want to sit there," Sasuke said scooting more towards Naruto. The blond was now squished up against the window in an attempt at preserving what was left of his personal bubble. "I'm much more comfortable here…"

"Hey, Naruto who's your friend?" Moegi asked giggling as she, Konohamaru and Udon peered over the seat. Naruto glared at her slightly.

"First of all, he is no friend of mine and second of all his name is Uchiha Sasuke. He is a bas- a mean person," Naruto huffed as he ignored Sasuke as much as possible. "You wouldn't know him. He hasn't been on the bus for three years, which leads me to ask why you decided to start?"

"My brother went off to college and he used to drive me to school. I don't have my own car yet," Sasuke said off-handedly like getting a car happened everyday.

"You know, your snobbish attitude really pisses me off," Naruto said, vein throbbing. Sasuke just smirked his oh-so annoying smirk and snort without even giving a reply. "Hmph, why did you even sit here?!"

Once again Sasuke chose to ignore him and instead took out his iPod and listened to his songs on shuffle. "Answer me!"

Ignore…

"… I hate you so much…"

And the bus ride continued until they pulled into the high school.

At least now I'm prepared and I know he's gonna be on, Naruto thought to himself as he stood up.

"Hey brats listen before you get off!" the voice of Jiraiya flowed through the bus. Everyone turned to listen to him. "From now on these are your assigned seats. I don't wanna see any seat hopping at all!"

That's when Naruto's world crashed, "Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!"

Naruto blushed as he noticed everyone staring at him and he pushed past Sasuke and scrambled off the bus.

Yes! This is my chance! Sasuke thought to himself, determined. Time to win over one Uzumaki after three years!

Narufan4ev: Well, there you are the first chapter!

Naruto: I kinda liked it…

Itachi: Wait, I'm not gonna be in this story at all!?

Narufan4ev: No I'm very sorry! (Itachi fans scramble out the door)

Sasuke: Do I have to be in this story?

Narufan4ev: Yes.

Sasuke: Damn…

Narufan4ev: See ya next time!
