A raven-haired, onyx-eyed, Uchiha and a blonde, spiky-haired, blue-eyed Uzumaki were out on the training field sparring, the two panting heavily, their breathes uneven. "Hah...hah..." 'Naruto's really strong...I'm going to pass out soon..I'm exhausted...' The Uchiha was out of options, he had already used all of his jutsu, even an electric Chidori had been cancelled out by a spiraling Rasengan. Still, he powered up one last Chidori, the end result being that it was overpowered by the blonde's Rasengan. Sasuke was on his hands and knees gasping for air, with Naruto looming over him. "Hehe~! I win teme!"

Sasuke grunted, mumbling in response, "A-alright...you win..." Naruto smirked, loving that Sasuke had admitted defeat. "Sorry, what was that, Sasuke-chan?" The raven-haired boy averted his gaze away. "I said you win dobe!" The pale face was flustered from their match, it made him look so...cute, Naruto thought. Suddenly a bubble-gum head peeped out from behind the bushes. "Naruto! You baka! Sensei was wondering where you and Sasuke were! Did you completely forget that we had a training session today!"

"Heh, sorry I was just kicking Sasuke's ass!" Sasuke glared at Naruto, his eyes like daggers, the onyx eyes then softening to a sorrowingful gaze. 'He seems so happy when he talks to Sakura, but annoyed when he's talking to me...' Naruto really was the only one who could make him be on the verge of tears, relizing that his eyes were welling up. 'Why do you hate me so much...Naruto...? Why won't you see me...? It's rare for people to like me...still...'

After awhile of gloating to Sakura, she ran off home, leaving Sasuke and Naruto alone together. "Um hey Sasuke..." Naruto began walking over to Sasuke, tripping and falling right on top of the Uchiha's body. A vivid shade of pink appeared on Sasuke's cheeks, he could not let Naruto see he was blushing, Naruto would hate him even more if he found out that he..."G-get off ba-baka!" Sasuke tried to hide his face by turning sideways, but the effort was futile. 'He's blushing...? Why...?' Naruto then lifted his weight off of Sasuke, regaining his stature. "Heh, sorry 'bout that...but I was going to ask you if you wanted to go eat ramen with me later." Sasuke's eyes widened in suprise, covering up the the tiny glimmer of hope they held. "You want me to g-go eat ramen with you?" Naruto nodded saying, "Yeah, I already asked Sakura-chan but she said she was busy..." Sasuke mouthed an 'oh', his heart sunk into dissapointment.

'Of course it was only that...he doesn't even really want to go with me...It feels even more hopeless now...' His cold, unnerving, usual self returned. "Sure, whatever." The blonde's face scrunched up in confusion. "What's with the attitude?"

"Nothing you'd care about."

"W-what? Of course I do! Seriously, what's wrong?"

"Why do you pretend to care Naruto, when you really just hate me?"

"I don't hate you!"

"Whatever. Just leave me alone."

"...Okay, just meet me at Ichiraku at seven o'clock." Sasuke grunted in response. 'Stupid clueless baka...'
