A/N: hi there, um well, uh yeah........
DAMN NARUTO DOESNT BELONG TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Most Beautiful Smile by Pinky Cat
...a blond haired boy stood still and alone in the only illuminated spot in the entire void of darkness...
Then he began to run as if his life depended on it, only to find that it wasn't working.
He panicked and his face began to crumble, like a porcelain mask.
His ears could hear people whispering about something, and the cold stares on him only deepened the pain when he realized who they were talking about.
The boy shadowed his face with his hands to prevent the others from seeing him. The whispering became chattering, and the chatter became shouting
Then suddenly,
"I DONT CARE ANYMORE!!"
It all became empty and quite again
The youth removed the hands from his face so that everybody could get a clear view of the fox-demon, the bloody red eyes, sharpened teeth and 3 lines on each side of his face.
Naruto opened his mouth to scream
In its place however, came a ringing.
'since when do foxes ring?'
'foxes don't ring, usuratonkachi'
*****************************
Sasuke had been listening to the teacher until he heard someone snoring loudly.
He looked over to his blond haired neighbor.
It was so obvious that he was sleeping, yet the Teachers never noticed, or maybe they just didn't care.
"If he gets a bad grade that doesn't mean that I have to get one too" Sasuke thought to himself, so he his best not to let the snoring deter his concentration.
The lecture, however, was put to an abrupt stop as the bell rang.
It was the sign that break has started.
All of the young, energetic students stormed outside in a mad frenzy, leaving only Sasuke and the sleeping Naruto alone in the empty classroom.
He just couldn't understand how that boy could stay asleep with all the noise around them.
Sasuke sighed and decided to wake Naruto because even an usuratonkachi deserved to enjoy his break.
He moved closer to him only to hear some strange mumbling
"sinc' when d' foxes ring?"
"Foxes don't ring, usuratonkachi"
Naruto took a deep breath and stretched himself.
He opened one of his eyes lazily, only to close it again as he relaxed.
"I had a REALLY strange dream," he muttered in drowsy voice as he scratched his stomach
"Something about a ringing fox?" Sasuke asked sarcastically, trying to start a conversation with the sleeping boy, as to amuse himself.
Sasuke's voice pulled Naruto back to reality. He didn't seem to notice that he was talking to Mr. Perfect
"None of your business, pretty boy" Naruto said quickly as he stood up and shoved Sasuke out of the way.
Naruto shuffled out of the classroom as quickly as possible, trying to hide an embarrassed blush that had made its way across his face.
Sasuke watched him run clumsily out of the classroom, taking in every inch of him.
Sasuke sighed
He had enjoyed the company of the blonde, who always made him smile, like nobody else could. Even if he didn't mean to.
When Naruto was with his very few friends, he would show them his real smile, still not the deepest smile but closer to it than the smile he gave to the teacher if he was late.
All Sasuke wanted to see from him was a real smile from deep within his heart, but he was Sasuke, and sometimes he believed he couldn't even start a conversation without getting one of them angry.
One of them? Naruto was the only one who got angry... he didn't know why, but somehow he felt that boy hated him, yet he didn't give up hope he believed that somehow.....
"Ahhhh Sasuke-kun we were all worried about you!!! Where have you been?"
The boy's thoughts were interrupted by one of his ever-faithful fan-girls with a long brown ponytail.
"Can't you see where I have been?"
Sasuke scowled at her but she pretended not to notice, so she hooked herself in one of his arms and dragged him with her to the Cafeteria.
******************************
Naruto sat on a table with his group of unusual friends. They had started talking, but Naruto remained silent, which was very uncharacteristic of him.
He kept one ear open to listen to his friend, Gaara, as he lay his head in his arms, losing himself in his thoughts.
Naruto wasn't unpopular, everyone knew him well-enough, but he wasn't popular either.
He had always done everything to draw attention to him; he went and talked with everyone and did funny things that basically ruined his grades.
Yet, despite all that, Sasuke just had to blink and all the girls and even some boys would be oozing all over him, which was exactly the reason why he hated Sasuke.
"Hey Naruto!!" Gaara waved a hand in front of him
'Oh, no!! He caught on!!! I need to do something..... Naruto-like!!!!' the boy thought desperately.
"Does anyone want my dessert?" some boy at the next table shouted for the crowd of students to hear.
"I WANT, GIVE IT TO MEEEEEE!!!" Naruto shouted back loud enough so that everyone in the entire school might have heard him.
His friends, including Gaara, looked at him pitifully
Of course he didn't want the dessert, he hated that flavor......
"Here you go," then there was a noise like a cow that had just walked into shit.
The dessert he wanted to claim was now in his face, dripping down to his t- shirt.
The cafeteria exploded into laughter, echoing off the walls and ringing in Naruto's ears.
Still blue eyes looked around.
There wasn't a single person who wasn't laughing, not even his so-called "friends." Some kids were in tears, others were on the floor holding their stomachs and beating the ground.
The whole scene was frozen in Naruto's mind, and for a single second, he wished he could blow up the entire place.......... with everyone in it.
But then......
....he started laughing, too
Naruto only laughed a few seconds, and it was a forced, dry laugh, but he had to.
He quickly bowed to Gaara telling him to wait for him as he was going to the restroom.
Naruto began to walk quickly, and the walk broke into a run.
The restroom was far away, so running would make it faster.
Or that was what he told himself, maybe he just wanted to run.
Naruto let out the breath he was holding when he walked into the bathroom, he checked to see if anyone was there.
Not a soul, which meant everybody was in the cafeteria. The entire school had seen him.
He turned on the water quickly, and began to splash handfuls of icy-cold water against his face.
At first, only a few sobs escaped him, but as the lump in his throat got bigger, his cry's became louder and stronger, until his whole body was shaking with the pain of being laughed at.
Naruto stopped, and looked into the mirror, only to see his now puffy, blue eyes and dripping face staring back at him.
And that's when he saw someone else in the mirror.
Sasuke flinched when he saw Naruto's condition.
Naruto noticed Sasuke's reaction and quickly made an excuse
"You saw that back there, in the cafeteria, right?"
Sasuke just nodded
"Ma . . . you see, I had an allergic reaction."
Sasuke nodded numbly, pretending to take Naruto's excuse.
'"Why does Naruto close up his emotions to the rest of the world?" He thought to himself.
Naruto, seeing Sasuke didn't believe him, continued to build on his excuse.
"See, I always had problems with, uh . . ."
Sasuke couldn't bear it anymore
"I'll tell the teacher that you're sick."
"NO WAY!!! Today is photo-day!! I can't be the only one's missing!!!!"
Sasuke sighed
'Right, today is photo-day, I already forgot about it.....
With that, Sasuke's mind began to work again.
'Today the photos will be taken, and tomorrow will be the voting for the 'most beautiful smile' well at least there's no school, but Naruto is really into it.... I was last years winner, so it could be possible that I win again, but if that happens Naruto will hate me even more.'
A small light-bulb went off in Sasuke's head.
'I got it!!! I just make some real ugly face, my pride wouldn't be too scratched because most girls love me and if Naruto wins then maybe . . .
Sasuke began to smirk
Naruto looked at him oddly
"What are you smirking at?"
Sasuke glanced at Naruto and began to smile even more thinking of his plan, making Naruto feel a little bit woozy looking at Sasuke smile that way.
"Oh, it's nothing, dobe"
"DON'T CALL ME A DOBE, YOU TEME"
"its okay if you call me bastard, dobe"
if you switch that 'b' and 'd', make an 'i' out of the second 'a' and replace 'st' with 'rl'. Yes, then it NEARLY sounded like 'darling' Sasuke was as determinant as ever that Naruto WILL call him darling. if he wants or not..... Sasuke's smirk grew wider and wider "...you're weird" Naruto told him with squinted eyes
A speaker announced that the pictures were to be taken in five minutes and that students should meet with their Sensei's.
Naruto looked over to Sasuke,
Sasuke looked over to Naruto,
"THE LAST ONE TO CLASS HAS TO PAY LUNCH!!!!" Naruto screamed as he zipped out the door.
Sasuke smirked
it wasn't that of a bad idea, he WANTED to take Naruto out to lunch
Sasuke jogged, so it wouldn't look like he did it on purpose
Naruto was about 10m in front, he looked back quickly to see if Sasuke could keep up with him Sasuke wiped his not available sweat from his forehead as if he was pretty tired already.
In that moment, Naruto bumped into someone and fell to the ground
He looked up to the angry person he'd bumped to. He had odd red marks on his face, and was cracking his knuckles.
"WAIT!! I-I DIDN'T.............."
. . . . .
Somewhere else near the tropics..................
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
One aboriginal man spoke to another:
"What was THAT?"
..........................to be continued.................................
A/N: If you didn't know what I meant with the scream, it was Naruto who screamed and it was so loud that the people in the tropics heard it!
Thanks to all people who review, and SPECIAL thanx to my beta MaidenInTheMoon!!!
