Chapter 1: The meeting
"Stupid clock!" Naruto screamed into the sky as he sprinted towards the street he thought lead to his new school.
Why today? Why on the first day of school would his alarm clock finally break? Of course, it might have been because of Naruto's constant rage against it for always showing the wrong time, but as long as it had been close to the actual time, he had never minded.
"Iruka-sensei's gonna kill me if I'm late!" Maybe it hadn't crossed the blonde's mind that shouting into the sky wasn't going to get him to school on time, but it didn't matter anyways.
Naruto had recently been transferred to Konoha High from his previous high school where he had been suspended far too many times for his guardian's (Iruka's) liking. Finally, the kind man had snapped and decided to move towns in the middle of the school year!
The boy hadn't exactly been looking forward to the "big move" but now that it was out and over with, he could at least try to get a good start in this new town, right? Key word being "try".
However, since Iruka could only afford so much, they both lived together in a small apartment which was mildly far away from Konoha High, much to Naruto's displeasure. Also, with all the dead ends, cul-de-sacs, and intersections, finding the right streets to the school wouldn't be easy, either. This is what Naruto found out when, in his rush, he ran into the brick wall of a building only a few blocks from the school. There was a loud bang as his head made contact with the stone.
"Itai…" Naruto muttered under his breath, gently rubbing the newly formed bump on his forehead. Looking up, he cursed as he realized this was the fifth dead end he'd run into in the past five minutes. "If that's not the way then maybe…" He ran out of the small alley and was back on the main road in the next few seconds.
Just breathe deeply, and don't get mad. He thought to himself. Even if he was late, he could at least try to control his massive temper and still make a good first impression when he finally arrived.
Finally, he recognized a street Iruka had told him about while giving the blonde directions to Konoha High. Grinning, Naruto ran as fast as he could (and that was pretty fast, even for his size) down the street. His eyes lit up as he saw the large blue-ish gray building that was the high school come into view.
"Yeah! I made it!" He said to himself as he slowed to a walk just a few feet in front of the towering gates that stood between him and the school. This he hadn't thought of. How was such a small kid like him supposed to scale this wall?
He grinned, seeing the stepladder beside the gate. While he couldn't help but wonder who would be so desperate as to bring a stepladder just to make it to school remotely on time, he also couldn't believe his good fortune for having seen it so quickly. In a few seconds, he was over the gate and walking casually toward the building.
Triumphantly, he raised his hand to the doorknob of the doors, and began to turn it….if it would only turn more than a few millimeters!
Damn! Naruto thought. Frantically he looked around for an inconspicuous entry to the building. Sighing in defeat, Naruto realized he would have to go all the way around the school to the principal's office if he wanted to get in. Slowly turning around, he prepared to drag his feet all the way there, when suddenly the front doors opened and a strange looking boy stepped outside.
This boy had a short, black bowl-cut and huge eyebrows, Naruto noted. In a way, he reminded the blonde of a turtle, what with all the green the other boy was wearing and his expression, of course.
"Um…h-hey!" Naruto had to force the words out of his mouth to keep from criticizing the bushy-eye browed kid. "Do you think you could let me in there?" Smile, he reminded himself.
"Why would you want to go inside there when it is so much more youthful and vibrant out here?" The other boy said enthusiastically. Taken aback, Naruto told the boy that he had to get to his classes since he was so late. The boy only looked Naruto up and down, then burst out laughing.
"There's no school today, um….what was your name?"
"Uzumaki Naruto….wait! What do you mean there's no school today?"
"I'm Lee, Rock Lee. And today's a teacher's holiday." Lee grinned and flashed Naruto a thumbs-up sign. "Lucky for you, huh?"
"Y-yeah…" Naruto lowered his voice gradually as he slumped to the ground. No school today? After all that running and those head injuries? Hands shaking, he took the most recent school notice he had gotten out of his pocket.
His eyes skimmed down the list of days where there was no school and….there was today's date.
"…"
Damn. Maybe he should start actually reading the notices he got in the mail from now on…
"Well, if there's no school today, Lee, then why are you here? Did you put that stepladder out there?" Naruto asked.
Lee responded by nodding and saying. "Well, Gai-sensei lent me some training supplies and I just had to return them soon. Wouldn't want to anger my teachers." Naruto nodded in understanding.
Well then. Naruto had no more reason for staying. He said bye to Lee and turned around to begin to find his way back home.
"Sorry you came all this way for nothing, but think of how beneficial the exercise will be for you!" Lee shouted when the spiky-haired blonde was about a few yards away. Naruto waved at Lee without turning around, showing that he heard him, but continued walking. "See you tomorrow, though!"
Lost in thought, Naruto passed the street he was supposed to turn on, and wound up in front of a park. The sky was clear, and since he needed some time to cool down, Naruto decided to take a nap in the park. Why waste his energy getting lost when he could rest in a nice, calm park.
Finally spotting a tree in the sea of grass, Naruto dropped onto his back, his hands behind his head. No clouds, just the big open sky….Exhausted, Naruto slowly fell into a deep sleep.

Sasuke Uchiha cursed.
After finally deciding to ditch school today, he had found out that it was a holiday. It wouldn't have been a big deal, but once Sasuke put his mind to something, he would go through with it. Always. So, since he had finally decided this would be about the only day he would ever ditch (He was an Uchiha, and Uchihas were obedient servants of the educational system, which meant that they never ditched school and never got bad grades) he had to make it true. Which meant it was wasted.
Damn.
He hadn't known what he would have done if he had ditched, but since that plan was out the window, he just decided to walk around the neighborhood.
Dressed in a dark blue turtleneck sweater, and black jeans, he descended down the steps from his house to the street. Where to? He thought. But it didn't really matter, he just needed to blow off some steam, anyways.
He passed the school, he passed the supermarket, and soon he found himself at the local park. Sighing, he stepped onto the narrow sidewalk that led into the park. Kicking a few stones in his path didn't stop his fury, so he had just decided to turn around when he saw something…interesting.
It was a small blonde boy who was lying on the ground, snoring like there was no tomorrow. The boy had three small lines across either side of his face, making small whiskers on his face. Even though the Uchiha had been seriously pissed a few seconds before, seeing this boy so at peace somewhat calmed him. The snoring didn't even bother him. In fact, Sasuke found the boy to be…well, cute.
Sasuke shuddered. Cute? Sasuke had never thought of anybody as "cute" before, not even girls, why would he think it of this annoying-looking boy? However, before he could stop himself, he stepped closer the boy, and leaned over him, he looked so peaceful, so carefree….

Naruto was rudely interrupted from his nap by hearing a rustle somewhere near him. Slowly he opened his eyes, then shut them…..Then did a double-take. Was there a guy leaning over him?
No, no way! Couldn't be. But when the pale face looking down at Naruto neither disappeared nor moved away, Naruto's eyes opened wide and he looked at the face that was no more than a foot away from his.
Pale. Dark, obsidian eyes. Raven colored hair, the kind that when the light hit it right (like it was right now) would make the hair seem to have a blue-ish tint. Naruto had to admit, this boy was handsome, but quickly overlooked the fact.
"Pervert!" Naruto screamed and punched the other boy in the face. Quickly, and without waiting for a response, he got up and sprinted even faster than when he was trying to get to school, continuously screaming about the "stupid neighborhood", with it's creepy perverts, and dead ends. And he kept sprinting until he was sure that he was far far away from that park. Only problem was, now he had absolutely no idea where he was….What a splendid day this has been, he thought.
yep, that's what I have so far...please read and review, I'm still not sure if i should continue this story...
