Monday

Naruto was fuming! How could that bastard ruin his day! They got a class assignment and Naruto hoped to be in the same group as Sakura. But instead, he got scooped up with none other than the school's biggest ice prick: Uchiha Sasuke.

They were allowed to choose their own groups but as he proceeded to walk towards his beloved Sakura-chan, a hand slipped around his wrist and pulled him back. In front of him stood Sasuke, who said, in a commanding voice, "You'll be my partner"

"As if I would ever choose you, I'm going with- "

"Looks like everyone already chose a partner, guess you don't have any other choice."

Naruto was about to argue but Sasuke cut him of with a smirk. Leaning in closer, he said, without blinking, "Thursday, 6 o'clock, my house. Be there."

He finally released his grip on the blonde's wrist and walked away. The bell rang. It was dinnertime and one pissed Uzumaki walked down the hall.

"What's up?" Kiba asked, when he caught up with him.

"Nothing"

"C'mon, I've known you way too long to believe that."

Kiba was right. They were friends since kindergarten. And Naruto knew he wouldn't let go unless he heard the whole story. "I got partnered with that damn Uchiha."

"That explains a lot." Kiba snickered. They pushed the doors of the cafeteria open and sat on the table Hinata occupied for them.

"Hi Naruto-kun." She said, shyly.

"Hello Hinata-chan. You look very pretty today."

She had put a red flower in her hear that morning. By now her face matched the colour of the flower and she was stuttering a small 'thank you'.

"Stop teasing her." Kiba spoke.

"I just gave her a compliment." Naruto said, confused.

Naruto was so naïve and he still didn't know much about Hinata's crush. So the boys went on disputing about it till Sakura entered the cafeteria and smacked them both across the head.

"Baka! People are looking at you!" She joined the group at the table, picking at her food and telling everyone about some film that she saw.

Tuesday

Naruto had already forgotten about the 'Sasuke' incident. That is, until he passed him by during break. Their eyes met but the cool bastard just looked at him as if he was nothing more than a damn wall. There was no recognition whatsoever in his eyes.

"First he makes me his partner and now he acts as if I don't even exist anymore! Who the fuck does he think he is?" Naruto was about to ask Sasuke –not very politely, mind you- when Sakura caught up with him and began to chit-chat with him about random stuff. Normally Naruto would be very pleased to talk to his crush, but at the moment his only wish was to take revenge on Sasuke.

"Naruto, did you hear what I said?"

"Gomen, Sakura, what did you say?"

"Where you dreaming again? I said I'm partnered up with Ino. You're so lucky you're with Sasuke."

"Do you think so?"

"Are you kidding? I wanted to ask him first but you got him already. He's like the smartest kid in the class and he's soooo handsome!" Sakura swooned; she was almost drooling over the mere image of Sasuke.

"But I didn't ask for it. You can take him if you want, I'll go with Ino." Everything was better than that stupid ice prick, even if it meant that his beloved Sakura-chan would be partnered up with him. He formed no threat, he wasn't even interested the slightest bit in her.

"Do you really want to do that?" Sakura almost squealed.

"Yeah sure."

"Thanks Naruto, you're the best!" She gave him a big hug, which made him turn dark red.

"Let's go ask Sasuke." She dragged him by the hand, almost running down the hall.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura yelled.

"What?" he snapped, and gave Sakura a slightly annoyed glare. After practically running throughout the whole school, Sakura and Naruto found Sasuke at the backside of the library, sitting alone and reading a book.

"Can you please switch with Ino, so I can be your partner? It's alright with Naruto."

"No." He didn't even look up from his book as he answered her.

"But Sasuke-kun-"

"No!" He slowly lifted his gaze from his book and met Naruto's. His eyes were pitch black, piercing Naruto's sky-blue ones. He then switched gazes, looked at Sakura and slowly spoke. "If you will excuse me now, I have more important things to do."

Sakura stuck her nose in the air and stomped angrily away. "Sasuke, why did you have to be so rude to Sakura-chan? Why can't we change places-"

"Naruto." Sasuke interrupted, "Do you really think I enjoy being partnered up with fan girls who drool whenever they see me?"

Naruto couldn't help but think that fan girls actually drool at the thought of him, but decided not to mention it because it wouldn't help his case at all. "No, but-"

"Come to my house tomorrow instead of Thursday. Meet with me after school. I'll make something to eat." Sasuke approached Naruto, stopping a few inches before him, putting his hand on the wall behind the blonde, whispering in his ear. "Don't forget."

Sasuke left a perplexed blonde, wobbling on his unstable legs, and headed to the exit.

When Naruto realized, or thought he realized what had happened, he got extremely angry. How dare Sasuke, intimidate me like that?He was going to get him back, no matter what!
