Part 1: Big News!

Disclaimer! I don't own Naruto... BUT LOTS OF "OC"ness.

I wunna do a collab with Hana-Kimi... but idkk
Should I?

"Akatsuki's performing at Winter Ball! Akatsuki's performing at Winter Ball!" Ino screamed, running to the lunch table, followed my Shikamaru and Chouji.

"Sasuke! This is great, isn't it!?"

"Huh? Oh... yeah..."

"Why is he so down?" Sakura whispered to his best friend, Naruto.

"I dunno; he doesn't wunna talk about it..." The blonde whispered back.

"I hope he's okay..."

"Yeah."

"So, how the heck did you find out?! Winter Ball is on the 24th... that's in two weeks!" Sakura said.

"Well, you know my daddy, he knows EVERYTHING!"

"Sasuke, did you know about it?" Tenten asked. "Don't you have contact with-"

"TENTEN! Uh... help me with... getting ketchup... yeah. COME ON!" Sakura grabbed Tenten's hand and led her away.

"Whoa Sakura, what's the problem?"

"Don't talk about him in front of Sasuke," Sakura said quietly.

"Why not?"


"Sasuke's... well, I don't really know, but the last time his name was mentioned, Sasuke started tearing up and he ran off. We didn't see him for a week until he called me."

"But... where'd he go?"

"He didn't say. Naruto and I just met him by the graveyard and walked him home... He was so upset."

"Well I wish you would have told me that before!"

"Heheh, well..." Sakura started. 'I should have... you have a big mouth...'

The girls walked back to the table, also forgetting the ketchup, but no one noticed. Sasuke wasn't there, but Shino said that he said he wasn't feeling well.

"I feel bad for him..." Ino said.

"Well, he's always like that. Always depressed about something..."

"Maybe he just needs a hug! I big, squishy hug!" Chouji said. The table laughed.

"Haha, Chouji you might kill him in the process!" Naruto laughed. "By the way, Neji, you haven't said anything in a while."

"Sorry, I'm a little under the weather as well..."

"Damn. EVERYONES SICK!"

"SHUT UP NARUTO!" Sakura yelled.

"Sorry..." Naruto said. "I'm gunna see if Sasuke is all right. Later."

"Bye." They all said,

"Naruto, text me. Tell me what's up."

"Sure."



-----With Sasuke-------

Sasuke walked slowly down the empty halls. They were always deserted during lunch time and break. His ran his slim fingers threw his silky black hair, sighing deeply.

He really needed a shrink right about now. Someone he could dump all of his thoughts onto, and would tell him what do do - and on top of that answer his greatest question he's ever had to ask himself: Is he -

"Sasuke!" Someone called to him. Sasuke turned around.

"Hey, loser."

"Bastard." Naruto smiled.

"What's up? You look out of breath."

"I was looking for you, I was worried."

"Yeah? Why?"

"Well, Tenten accidently mentioned... you-know-who, and you just left. I was afraid that you'd ditch again."

"Heheh, thanks, but I ran away last three years ago. I'm back now."

"Well, I can see that."

"I just... need to get away from everybody for a while."

"Does that 'people' include me?"

"No, loser. You're an exception."

"Great, cause I wasn't leaving anyways!" Naruto jumped on Sasuke's back, almost knocking the other boy down.

"OW." He stated.

"Trust me that hurt me now that it hurt you."


"Sure it did, Naruto. Sure it did."

"Walk."

"Where?"

"I don't know just walk."

Sasuke started walking straight. They were probably headed outside. Those two and Kiba, Chouji and Shikamaru were all famous for skipping the last two classes of school. Surprisingly, only Iruka-sensei ever took interest in trying to catch them. Everyone else just gave up. Those boys were just hopeless - even if they were all very talented.

Naruto for instance, was great with dancing! Who knew? But seriously. He was so good, he made the varsity senior team when he was a freshman, but he got kicked off because his grades sucked.

Sasuke could play guitar and sing like an angel, just like his older brother. Both boys had voices that really touched people, though only his brother took interest in making music his career. Sasuke only wanted a solid career that didn't include music. He decided this when he was about 11 years old.

Shikamaru and Neji were also good with the guitar, (Shikamaru on the normal guitar and Neji on bass.) They could sing, but no more than as a backround singer.

Chouji and Kiba were excellent on the drums; they just love banging on stuff!

Then there was Tenten, who was great on the keyboards. Sai actually wrote a song for her, and was played at homecoming last year.

Ino, Sakura and Hinata all joined the dance team, since that's what they loved to do. They liked singing and playing instruments, but dancing just made up for it all!

Shino... he couldn't play or sing or dance, but he had the brains. He was more of the 'band manager' type of guy.

Lee on the other, other hand was more of a track and field guy. He just loved going fast!

Any who, let's get back to our boys!


"You know, Sasuke,"

"What."

"I like this position." Sasuke blushed. WHAT!? What does he mean? Oh God... Oh my God... Sasuke's heart was pounding, and his breath got heavy. Don't panic!

"I mean, I don't have to walk." Naruto said, not even noticing how Sasuke's cheeks were flushed with red. Pure red.

"Lazy bum." Sasuke covered up, trying to breathe again without making a scene.

Naruto snickered. "Yeah, I know! But you're really boney. EAT SOMETHING!"

"Shut up, Naruto." Sasuke's blush never went away until they got outside and to the lake about three blacks away from school. Sasuke never put the blonde boy down - he fell asleep!

"Naruto, wake up." Sasuke put him down, but he never woke up. Sasuke sighed. 'Sleep tight... snookums... Wait. WTF!?

Sasuke started rubbing his temples.

"Damn... what the hell's wrong with me!?" He said to himself.

"Probably that you're stressed about something." Naruto sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"How long were you awake?"

"How long was I asleep?"

"I don't know... 20 minutes I guess."

"Hm. I just woke up." He stretched out. "Hmmm... That was a nice nap."

"All 20 minutes of it." They boys laughed. "It's been a while since we've been alone." Naruto said, leaning back. "Usually we're with Shikamaru or Kiba."

"And stalked by girls."


"That's because they think we're all gay with each other - not that that's a bad thing. I love women!"

"You always were a pervert..."

"Shut it."

"Well, now what?"

"What?"

"We're here, now what?"

"Let's take a nap!"

"You just had one."

"You didn't."

"Nope. I'll pass."

"Please, Sasuke-kun?" Naruto said getting awfully close to him, with pleading eyes.

"I will not give into those eyes..." No matter how lovely they are...No! Sasuke mentally hit himself on the head. I'M NOT LIKE THAT!

"Pwety pwease Sasuke!?"

"...Okay fine. But no cuddling or anything."

"YAY!" Naruto said, stripping off the jacket of his school uniform, and wrapping it around his slim figure and lay down in the grass. Sasuke did the same, laying down facing Naruto.

"This is weird." Sasuke said, ruining the perfect silence.

"No it's not."

"I'm cold. We should go back."



"You're the one who said no cuddling."

"Yeah, but if we were at your place, cuddling wouldn't be as weird if we got caught." Sasuke stated.

"You're so pessimistic. Quit looking at the down side."

"Why can't we just go back?"

"Cause we always go to your place or mine. This is funner."

"'Funers' not a word."

"So? Making up words is a form of science. Do you wunna cuddle or not."

"Not."

"Fine. Good Night."

"Yeah..." Sasuke said. Naruto had already closed his eyes, and turned his body so he lying on his back. Sasuke watched as his chest rose and fell at a steady pace, and listened closely to his slow, relaxed breaths. 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6. He so peaceful. Sasuke started sweating. His body was getting do hot just watching this boy sleeping... but it made the butterflies that were locked inside his stomach flutter every time he thought about it. The ravens' hands slowly touched the skin on his stomach and slowly moved their way lower and lower and lower, slowly rubbing against the vulnerable skin beneath his pants. The more he touched and rubbed against the skin, the harder it was to keep still, and keep from making weird noises that one may call 'disturbing'. Sasuke's hands moved up and down, squeezing harder and harder -

"S-Sasu...ke..." Sasuke jumped up, hands slipping quickly out of his pants. "You were..."

"Y-yeah - no! I mean... Naruto! Stop laughing!"

"I--I-c-can't--hel-lp--help- it!!" Naruto's face was turning a bright pink; He was laughing so hard he started to cry. "AND YOU WERE THE ONE SAYING GETTING CAUGHT CUDDLEING WAS EMBARESSING!"

"It's not funny!"

"It's fucking hilarious!" Naruto chirped. "I'm sorry - but I never thought you'd be stupid enough 

to do something like that while I was asleep!"

Sasuke turned away. Naruto was right. He was being stupid - but why did seeing Naruto sleep make him want to do something as rude and creepy like that? Naruto was a boy after all!

Maybe he just needed to go home and take a nap... something!
