Authors note: This is my first FanFiction, I hope you like it.
The characters might seem OOC ( out of character), but I think this story will eventually turn into a SasuNaru.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, Nor any of its character, but Masashi Kishimoto does.

LET ME TELL YOU A SECRET: I'm so in love with Shikamaru; but I love Shino too.
'Hmmm, who to choose,' harmony taps her cheeks, then slowly walks over to Masashi, and grab them from him.
'Hahaha take that Kishimoto,' Happy laughed.
Please leave your comment so I'll know what you think about it.

THE PET
Chapter one
It was another inauspicious day at school for Sasuke, who was sulking and loathing; because of a certain uncouth yellow head boy.
Oh, how he hated the color yellow, orange and blue. Who was he kidding, he loved blue. After all blue was his favorites color; well midnight blue to be exact.
If he saw another flash of yellow or orange; he would surely die from some sort of color defection or a virus or something...
While Itachi was out doing his daily routine, he came across a pet store. This caused an idea to shoot through is mind like electricity, which made him smirk instantly.
" Watch out little brother, I have just the thing for you, " Itachi smirked while looking at their new pet.
When Itachi had decided it was time to go home, he saw a brood looking Sasuke. Not brood to be frank, it was more of an irritated looking Sasuke, sitting at the kitchen Island. The kitchen was the first place Sasuke crash when he had left school; since he was too lost in his thoughts to have a proper sense of direction while his energy begins to drain from his body.
"Hmn," only Itachi could voice a sound that could drain all emotion, from his younger brother's face. Sasuke straighten up himself, trying to make his face as expressionless as possible. It would have been a good mask if Itachi didn't already saw him; but Sasuke doesn't know that.
"Don't let me stop you, little brother," Itachi said looking at Sasuke," Although I see no need for it, when I just bought you a gift."
"..." 'Itachi bought me a gift,' Sasuke mused. 'Somethings up that's for sure.'
" Why..." but Sasuke was cutted short when Itachi finished his sentence for him.
" Did I bought you a gift? Foolish little brother," Itachi lowered his shaking head. " Why wouldn't I."
Sasuke glared at his brother for a long time; before Itachi walked away, towards the living room, shouting over his shoulder." Tallawah (follow me)."
" Fine, " Sasuke snarled, dragging himself off the Island stool." What is it? " Sasuke asked glaring at his brother.
" Patient little brother," Itachi smirked, as he mysteriously pulled a white cloth off the cage, " Do you like it ? "
As wide as saucer l think not. For, it was much, much-much wider. That's how Sasuke eyes were.
O.o Sasuke saw the pet?
o.O The pet looked back.
Itachi was relishing in the moment.
" So do you like it? " Itachi tilted his head looking at Sasuke. " Do you?" he began to whined. Atleast to Sasuke's ears thats what it sounded like he was doing. But to anyone else it would've sounded monotone.
" Hmn, " as much as Sasuke hated or claimed to hate him. He hated to disappoint the guy. Huh? What am I saying, Itachi loves to taunt him, and - and... Oh yes he hated him.
Itachi could read Sasuke more than anything, even though he (Sasuke) tend to act stoic. And even in such character Itachi tends to see him even more readable. Just then the pet began to stretch it's... and a flash of yellow, no wait it was orange. Well where the red and yellow blend it did have a orange coat, especially in the sun light. And that was all it took for Sasuke to lose his sanity.
" Wahhh ! " he shrieked. " O-o-o, Y-ye-ye." Damn those forbidden words, how he hated them.
" Wahhh ! you're self," the parrot voiced. "You're not very good to look at either." This was worth it, ' Itachi taught, as he watched in amazement.
Not that Sasuke was surprised the bird talked, it was just how the bird sound. It sounded like N-Na another forbidden word and not to mention those bizarre colors.
When Sasuke first saw the bird it had blue, no-not light blue, more like in-between sky and navy blue, yeah that blue. Then there was a dash of red, atleast those colors Sasuke didn't mind; seeing that those two are his favorites. He didn't believe that Itachi would buy him something; that he could teach to hate all the forbidden colors, Itachi and a certain someone. Then it began to spread it's wings, 'Damn it.' it was certainly too good to be true. Itachi wouldn't give Sasuke anything that didn't annoy the shit out of him. Wait a minute. How did Itachi know he hated Or and Ye. No he didn't. Did he?
" I haven't introduce you two yet and your already having a lovers quarrel," Itachi smirked triumphantly, which made Sasuke glare bullets at his brother head.
" Luv'rs quarrel my ass, " the parrot chirped, " l wouldn't date you two, even if you were the last two dic' face on earth."
Sasuke would've killed the bird for it's insult; but he had to give it props for offending Itachi, who stared at the bird for its rude comment.
Sasuke's smirk was later erased when Itachi began to patted the bird's head. Well to Sasuke's eyes thats what he interpret, but to the parrot it felt like someone was dropping big stones on its head.
" Now, now, little one, no need to be so blunt," Itachi stated still patting the birds head, who began to peck at his fingers.
" What, will you name it? " Sasuke snarled looking at his brother, since he wasn't in the mood for naming the dead. Well in his eyes it was of no significance to name something that would soon be. For he would, kill it.
" Why so eager for me to name it?" Itachi questioned. "After all it's your bird... but since you insist." At this a bad feeling began to churn in Sasuke stomach." Hmn, lets see... I'll name it N..."
". . ." Sasuke stiffen at the 'N' sound. ' It's all over, ' he taught as he began to chant without realizing, " Not Naruto, not Naruto..."
Itachi glance up at him rather quizzingly, which made his face glow sinsterously.
" Actually l was going to say Naïve creature but -" the pause at but, made Sasuke heart jump.
" But Naruto will do," Itachi gave Sasuke his famous supercilious smile, as he pondered aloud. " That's the name of the kid at your school," he continued, " No wonder you gave it that name, they both have splitting similarities."
" No wonder..I named- the parrot Na..." Sasuke uttered frivolously, then it all hit him with a bang. " I WHAT ! ! ! " he yelled.
How stoical of him. lol.
****§****
" How trouble some," Shikamaru drawled the next day. " How could anyone think of naming their parrot Naruto," his body shivered.
" Hmn," Sasuke grunt, " If you think thats bad, try imaging a parrot thats talks exactly like the dope."
Shikamaru frowned at Sasuke before replying sarcastically. " What did you think I was shivering from, cloud gazing."
" . . ." Shino buzzed.
" Having a parrot maybe one thing, but having one that acts like Naruto may become a problem, " Neji stated.
*..." Garra eyes twitched.
" Hmn, " Sasuke exhaled shaking the disappointment away; then the bell began to rang, signifying that lunch time was now over.
Sasuke had known Shikamaru since the first grade, not that they liked each other much then, but they didn't hate each other either. It wasn't until the second term that they became linkz just after a teacher had assigned them to do a group project. They eventually turn good friends after that, even naming themselves Triple S .G&N which was (Sasuke, Shikamaru, Shino, Garra & Neji). Shikamaru was the only one in the group that didn't fight unless he must. He claims it's too much of a hassle when they got into unnecessary drawls; not that he was in it. He would be on the side line bragging about 'how troublesome fighting is' and so forth. Most of all he knew his friends could tend to their own problems while he tends to some sleep. Lazy ass. They respect him anyways.
All five of them, correction, four of them were known to be somewhat stoic (emotionless freakz); and one was known to be nonchalant ( boring •~° ).A great combination.
(Back to school). They had Biology now.
" Can anyone guess what mammal, we'll be learning about today?" Iruka asked.
" Dog, " grinned Kiba, as the class rolled their eyes.
" No, try again, " Iruka spoked.
" Frog, " Naruto blurted out.
The class began to laugh at him, this caused Iruka to frown as he shaked his head disappointedly.
" Not even close, Naruto. A frog is not a mammal," Iruka explained, irritated by the blonde's outburst. "Ok class, I'll give you a hint. This is a marine life mammal."
" Marine life?" Naruto questioned confusedly.
" He means, from the water, " Chouji said munching on a bag of chips.
" Oh ! " Naruto exclaimed as his pondering face lit up, " I knew that."
Just as Iruka was about to choose someone Naruto piped up again.
" Iruka Sensei, a frog does live in water, so how comes you say it's not a mammal? " he pouted.
" Uh...Uh, " Iruka exhaled as he got ready to lecture the naive blonde. " Naruto a frog is an amphibian not a mammal, try reading your notes for a change, maybe then you'll know the difference between the two."
" Uh... Am-f-by... What? " he said thoughtfully scratching his cheeks, " Um...Never heard of it."
" Class can you name me a mammal from the ocean, " Iruka sighed ignoring the dumb blonde antics, " How about you Sakura, " he pointed on the pink head girl.
" Walrus," she smiled.
" Very good Sakura, but that wasn't the one I was looking for, " Iruka smiled looking around the class. " How about you Hinata," he pointed on the shy milky gray eye girl.
" Um-m a-a do-do dolphin, " Hinata uttered shyly.
" Excellent job Hinata, " Iruka shrieked pleased. " Finally. Class as Hinata has said, we will be learning about dolphins. Did you know that a dolphin new born can stay up to one month without surfacing for air."
" Wow ! " the class exclaimed fascinated by the new information, " We never knew that."
" Well neither did I, now write down these pointers for me, " Iruka announced, " For you just might get it on a pop quiz."
With that said, the class began to groan, which only made Iruka smile; but not before telling them they should study hard.

" How was your day? " ltachi asked from the couch.
" The usual, " was Sasuke dull reply, as he walked to his room, with Itachi following in toe " What? " Sasuke snarled, turning sharply to face his brother.
" Nothing. " was Itachi casual response. " Do you want something? "
" I'm not in the mood Itachi, " the younger boy glare.
" Fine, " Itachi shrugged, as he began to back away, " I just thought, I would give you a hand, in helping you pack. Didn't know it would've been such a bother."
" Help-me-pack, " Sasuke mouthed, as his eyes grew wide. " Wait- does that mean..." Unable to finish his sentence, Itachi chipped in.
" Yes, now do you want me to help you? "
" What. No, " Sasuke growled, " Are they here as yet? "
" Tomorrow they will be, " Itachi inclined. " Now, do you want me to...?"
" NO, " was the yelling response he got, as Sasuke ran up the stairs, while Itachi smirk.
' Damn, why do I have so many,' Sasuke mused, wishing he had let Itachi help; as he ran around his room, grabbing and shoving clothes in his suitcase. It's not as if Sasuke had to pack; but seeing that most of the things here was his favorite, it was hard not to. They had reached the Uchiha Mansion around 9 o'clock; after Sasuke had decided he could leave a truck load of things behind. Struggling to take out eleven suitcase, Itachi pity his brother and began to help him, but not before poking him in the forehead.
" Foolish Little brother, " he apathetically noted. " You didn't have to bring them all."
" It's not all of them," Sasuke hissed, angrily grabbing the suitcase out of his brother grasp. " And I didn't ask for your help."
" How ungrateful of you, " Itachi frowned as he pulled out the remaining suitcases out his vehicle.
" Welcome home Master Itachi. Master Sasuke, " the butler bowed, trying to take the bags from Sasuke who narrowed his eyes at him; but the butler wasn't fazed by it as he still tried to take the bag.
" I'll carry it, " Sasuke growled dragging the bag from the older man grip. This caused Itachi to narrow his eyes angrily at him then sternly stated.
" Sasuke don't be rude and apologize. "
This made Sasuke glare at him, as he glared right back. Not with-standing his brother glare, he apologize and went on his way.
" And to think, I almost forgot you, " Itachi said, walking back to his vehicle, taking out a cage, " Please take his pet, " he noted as he handed it to the bag men, before taking his stuff to his room.
' Don't shqke mi cage so hard moron,' the parrot shrieked as he pecked the bag man hand.
" Ouch ! Cheese and rice, " the man yelped almost dropping the cage. " This damn bird just pecked me, " he complained to his partner.
" Oh, shut up and get a move already, " the other noted.
Hearing the commotion down stairs make Itachi smirked, 'This pet will be a nice addition; to his sweet home, and apathetic family.'
****§****
The blonde was at home but not all alone. He was about to phone Kiba and tell him to come over; but knowing his mom would be cooking again, Kiba would rather eat whatever Tsume ( his mom) offered.
" Naruto get down here," Kushina yelled from the kitchen, which send Naruto to his feet in nano-seconds.
" Its times like these, I wish, I never had her, as my mother," Naruto grumbled, heading to the door.
" Don't be like that Narû-to ," Minato grinned as he placed a hand on his son shoulders, erasing all his he was, but that didn't stop the grin from smearing his face; as he surprised his old man with a tight embrace.
" I see," Minato smiled brighter, running his fingers through Naruto hair. " So you have missed me ."
" You have no idea," Naruto squeezed Minato tighter, as he frowned. " She has me eating vegetable all week and lets not get started on the 'no ramen policy' she had inflicted on me. I feel like I'm gonna die from starvation or something," Naruto drastically explained.
" Heheh," Minato laughed feverishly as he scratched his neck. He knew exactly how Naruto felt, after all Kushina did that to him once. Still Naruto has a better ending; he wasn't beaten to a pulp then admitted in hospital feeding on drips for weeks. " It could've been worst Naruto," Minato shakes his head to erase the bitter memory, as he tried to change the subject. " How was school? "
This caused Naruto to change from sulky to much sulkier.
" I don't know why I have to go to that stupid school anyway, " Naruto pouted.
" Don't be like that," Minato ruffled his hair. " If you won't go for anyone, please go for me." Even though Minato knew it was a low blow, he just had to use it for it...
" Fine, " Naruto pouted, then he grinned back at his dad. "Only because you asked me so nicely."
'Works everytime.' Minato smiled.
" MIN-A-TÓ. NA-RÙ-TÓ," Kushina shouted from downstairs.
" Heheh," they both laughed feverishly, agreeing to get going as they ran down the stairs. "We're here," they chorus out of breath.
" Good," Kushina smiled staring at them both, " Now sit down and eat," she sternly spoke pointing on the plates of cooked vegetable.
" . . ." Two eyes stared at the plate of food.
" YUCK," one disgusted voice, dry vomit.
" WhAt Did YoU JuSt SaY, " a demanding Kushina gritted out.
" Nothing, " Naruto whimpered sulking into his chair.
" Thought so, " Kushina smiled. " Bon appétité."
