A/N- I know it's short, but my chapters will get longer as i get more absorbed by the story. Next chapter will be soon.
Disclaimer- K. Masashi's characters I am sad to say...I really want Kiba! He is so fucking adorable!
Lying in bed, Naruto shivered. He was freezing. Sighing, he rolled out of bed and was halfway across his dorm room, when a voice made him freeze. "Oi, Naruto. What are you doing?"
Naruto shivered again and continued across the room to the other bed pushed against the far wall. Sasuke was sitting up when Naruto poked Sasuke in the arm.
Naruto heard Sasuke's sharp intake of breath when their skin touched. "I'm really cold." Explained Naruto. "I felt that." Sasuke retorted. He laid back down and turned away from the bigger boy. Naruto sighed. "Well?" Sasuke sat back up. "Well, what?" Naruto rolled his eyes. "Can I borrow some of your blankets?" "You know where they're at." Came the reply.
Naruto padded to the closet in his boxers and pulled the pile out. He carried them back to his bed, grabbing a pair of pajama pants and a long sleeve t-shirt along the way.
He climbed back into bed and curled into a ball trying to get warm, wrapping the blankets around him. His stomach was hurting like hell, and he had a killer headache.
His teeth started to chatter uncontrollably. Sasuke sat up after a few moments. "Oi, Dobe! If you don't stop that, we'll never be able to sleep."
"S-stop w-w-what?" Questioned Naruto.
"That noise you're making! It's annoying."
Naruto rolled over and pressed against the wall. "B-but I'm r-r-really c-cold…" Complained Naruto. Sasuke got out of his bed, and made his way over to Naruto's bed, sidestepping clothes and random textbooks that littered his side of the room.
When he reached him, he rested his hand on Naruto's forehead. His eyebrows shot up. It was so rare that he almost couldn't believe it. "You have a fever." He reported. "And," He continued, "A severe case of the chills." Naruto shook his head. "No, n-no w-w-way. I-I'm n-n-not s-sick!" He protested. Sasuke shook his head. "How long were you up last night studying for that chemistry exam today?" Naruto's frowned while his eyebrows furrowed as he thought. "W-well, I h-had j-j-just g-gone to b-b-bed w-when I g-g-got c-cold. S-so I b-borrowed s-s-some of y-your b-b-blankets." Sasuke nodded.
So that meant Naruto hadn't gotten any sleep yet. It was about three o'clock in the morning too. Sasuke shook his head. "I might as well stay here today with you…" He muttered half to himself. Naruto, of course, protested. "No! Y-you'll m-m-miss t-the e-exam!" Sasuke shook his head again. "I can make it up later. I know all of the professors anyways. They were friends with my parents."
"I still feel guilty about making you stay with me…"
Sasuke smiled. As much as he wanted to hold it against the blonde, he couldn't. He was too fond of the blonde haired blue-eyed idiot.
The raven stood up. It was only four thirty, but he was awake, he might as well get dressed and do some extra studying. He pulled a pair of jeans on over his boxers, then pulled an immaculately folded t-shirt out of his dresser.
He placed himself at his desk with his chemistry and trigonometry textbooks and entertained himself while Naruto, finally, slept. Two hours later, at six, Sasuke nearly had a heart attack while his door was almost shattered into splinters with all the banging that was being done on it.
He scowled and threw it open, narrowly avoiding a fist in the face as Kiba went to bang on it again. "What the hell are you doing?! We are so late! Why are you just sitting around?!"
Kiba stopped for a minute, finally noticing the nest of blankets on Sasuke's bed, and the fact that Naruto wasn't rushing around trying to spike his hair and put his sneakers on at the same time.
"What did you do, Sasuke?" Naruto's guard dog snarled. Sasuke held up his hands in defense. "I didn't do anything. He was the one who decided that he was going to get a cold."
"I didn't decide to get a cold, it just happened!" Naruto's head popped out of his nest, rubbing his nose. Kiba grunted. "Sure, sure." He turned to Sasuke. "Don't do anything stupid, got it?" Sasuke widened his eyes in mock surprise. "Me? Why ever would I do something that would upset our beautiful Dobe, here?" "Watch it, Uchiha." Kiba warned, starting to back away down the hall. He really had to get to class.
As he turned to head down the stairs, he called over his shoulder, "I'll be back later and I'll grab some ramen too." With that he was gone. Sasuke sighed. He liked the kid, but he jumped to conclusions way to fast.
Naruto retreated back to his nest as Sasuke shut the door. He headed back to his desk and grabbed his cell. He dialed the number of his guardian, Kakashi and waited while it rang.
Kakashi answered it with a sigh. "What do you need Sasuke?" Sasuke scowled. "You know I wouldn't call if it weren't important." Kakashi nodded even though he knew Sasuke couldn't see him.
"Sure, Sure."
"I need you do let my professors know that I'm not coming today. Naruto is sick and-"
"What?! Naruto's sick? Why didn't you tell me? Is he okay? Does he have a fever? What if-"
"Kakashi!" Interrupted Sasuke, grinding his teeth. "He's fine. He's sleeping. I'm just going to stay here and make sure he doesn't get any worse." There was a sigh from the other end.
"Fine, just let me know if anything happens."
Sasuke nodded. "I will."
"Okay, bye."
Sasuke shut his phone with a sigh. He glanced over at Naruto, noticing that he had stuck his head out again. "Feeling better?" Naruto cocked his head, considering. "I don't have the chills anymore, but my stomach is not very happy. My head throbs like the pits of hell too." Sasuke snorted out a laugh. "That was very descriptive. Thank you." Naruto scowled.
Grinning, Sasuke sat back down at his desk, but couldn't concentrate. He was hungry. He stood up, grabbing his keys and made his way to the door.
He stopped and turned around when he reached it. "Do you want anything to eat?" He asked Naruto. Naruto popped his head back out, still scowling. Sasuke raised an eyebrow. Naruto sighed, relaxing his face. "Yeah, can you grab me some toast and a bottle of water?"
Sasuke pointed to a mini fridge that they had in the corner. "Bottled water in there, and yeah, I'll get you some toast." Naruto glanced at the fridge and nodded his thanks. Sasuke left the room and headed down to the cafeteria. He loaded a tray with food, paid, and plopped down at a seat in the corner.
He scarfed his own food down, setting Naruto's toast aside, and watched the other people in the room. There were two girls sitting by the windows on the other side that were bent over something and giggling.
Sasuke would have bet the shirt off his back that it was a picture of Naruto. Every girl on campus seemed to have one. Didn't they know that Naruto was his? Sasuke swallowed his last bite and stood up to go.
He dumped his tray and shoved Naruto's napkin wrapped toast in his pocket. He stepped out into the bright sunlight, just as two men approached him.
So what did you think? I know it's not exciting yet, but just wait. Review please! ^~^
