I tried to write a Sasu-Naru ...Tell me what you think and I'll update.


Sasuke rested his head and back at the tree with his eyes closed.

He could feel the sun's heat on his legs, and pulled them into the shadowy area where he sat. Thank god for creating trees and forests. He breathed with difficulty as the hot summer day reached the warmest point, and then (painfully slow) getting cooler. But it would take a while for the sun to give up and go to rest. Several hours of sweating and dehydration still lay ahead. Hours of heat, where the smartest move was to stay inside. If you had a good ventilation system, that is.

Sakura and Naruto were going over the long list of excuses that a special sensei might try to pull if he actually came. Kakashi had proved himself heartless by taking them out there, saying that any weather was good training weather. And that, if you wore the right clothes, nothing could stop you. Sasuke snorted, getting a puzzled look from each of the shinobis by his side (which he totally missed).

Yeah, sure. He would rather prefer to wear no clothes, than the right ones right now.

If the were any right clothes. Maybe there wasn't. Damn that Kakashi, he always got everyone to think of stupid and irrelevant things! And the worst thing was that he probably knew that. That lazy show-off.

He sighed and shifted position where he sat, still with his eyes closed. Would the bastard ever show up? He scowled, 'cause when he thought about it, Kakashi was beginning to sound like Gai when it came to training. No one would even try to move in this weather. They must have spent too much time together. All those meaningless contests and stuff.

He opened one eye to see what was going on with his teammates, seeing that Naruto stuck out his tongue at Sakura, saying something that could barely be heard, and earning a very loud slap in his face. The every day talk, then.

He would never try to admit it, but he loved his teammates more than anything. Well, he didn't really want to use the word "love", but it seemed to fit in rather well. He cared about them. Although they always irritated and pissed him off, there was something familiar about them that made him feel at home, or less alone. Not that he were ever alone. But… mentally. And now, when he had discovered feelings for one of them that went beyond friendship, he cared more and more for them both.

And so anger started pulsing through his body. Kakashi was so going to regret this. Getting them out here, and on a Sunday, too. He threw a quick glance at his clock. 12.30. Great. One hour late already. Where the hell was he?! According to Naruto, the town must have had an ice cream crisis, and Tsunade just had to send Kakashi to the Sand village for more. What the hell? But, yeah, okay, it was possible that that kind of scenario would occur. Seeing that if Konoha ever ran out of ice cream, Kakashi would be the one Tsunade would send out on such an, um, important mission. Much to his own winning.

But Sakura's proposal was far more likely. She snorted and said that the bookshop probably got another Icha Icha book, and while reading it, Kakashi lost himself on the road of life. The usual, boring stuff. Surprise me.

Anyway, here they were, in the shadow of a tree, hiding and desperately trying to escape nature in its element, somewhere in the sunburnt Fire-country. And somewhere, a jounin happily read his book, unknown of the hatred that flooded out of his three students, directed right at him. Or maybe he was. Damned that bastard!

"Ma, ma, Sasuke!"

Sasuke glared at the source of the most irritating voice ever. Naruto. He was flapping his arms like some kind of bird, trying to gain his attention. How could he be so lively when it was so damn hot?! Sakura seemed to be thinking the same thing, only her look was far more deadly than Sasukes.

"What do you want, baka?"

Totally ignoring the insult, Naruto calmed down and let his arms rest at his sides.

"What do you think Kaka-sensei will say? I bet my money on the ice cream!"

"He won't say anything." He turned his head away from Naruto and closed his eyes again. "Because as soon as he comes here, I'll kill him"

Naruto thought about that for a moment and then gave up, shrugging. He left Sasuke and his scary thoughts alone for the time being.

Though barely a minute had gone when Sasuke felt something heavy on his legs. He didn't need to open his eyes to know that it was Naruto's head. This might seem a bit strange, but lately, Naruto had grown fond of resting his head, not in his lap, but on Sasukes legs. And he when Sasuke hadn't pulled away (at least not the tenth and eleventh time he tried it) Naruto made it his favourite spot. Sasuke didn't remember when it started, but he knew that it made his fan girls go crazy, and that was enough for him. At least that's was what he told himself. And yeah, it must look weird.

Sasuke felt at ease when he was near his best friend. Their relationship might seem strained, like they were balancing on a thin thread, were the slightest move could make it snap. But no, this friendship was made to outlive any other. And that was the reason Sasuke got up in the morning.

Naruto and Sakura were still talking, but Sasuke barely listened. He was drifting of to sleep when Sakura stood up angrily and darted off. Possibly to look for Kakashi. Sasuke felt no need to get up and help her, so he relaxed once more against the tree. He was fine like this. After ten or fifteen minutes without any Sakura or Kakashi, something in the warm and comfortable atmosphere changed. Sasuke looked up suspiciously. He couldn't tell what it was, but something … He looked down at Naruto and blinked a few times. Naruto's breath had evened, and the steady rise and fall of his chest didn't have that hyper speed like it always had. Sasuke studied him with a frown. Naruto… fell asleep? Awkward.

After a couple of seconds, something warm spread through his chest. He must feel very… safe to fall asleep like this. He didn't know if 'safe' was the right word, but then again, this was an awkward situation. He looked up; scanning the area, but no one was to be seen. He then did what he had wanted to for so long. And yes, Naruto's hair was much softer than he ever could have imagined.

Oh God, that boy was too adorable when he slept.

He didn't know when his feeling towards to fox boy grew so intense and needing. But he did know that even if Naruto always found ways to piss him off, nothing could make him dislike him or make him feel uncomfortable. He was just sad that Naruto was so unaware of this.

It had been so long since love had any place in Sasukes heart. But then, when he was teamed up with Sakura and Naruto, things had changed. At first, he thought he actually did love Sakura, but it hadn't seemed right. He knew himself better than that, and he was far more complicated than he wanted to be. And now he loved this blond, loud and pure boy more than anything. Just because. No more, no less. And the crazy thing was that he felt so damn good about it. It felt good to be feeling, to be alive, when situations like this showed up. Naruto really had the gift to change people, and to the better. He stroked some golden locks away from Naruto's face, leaving that innocent and almost childish face to be admired. Sasuke shifted position, careful not to wake the sleeping beauty. But the numbness in his legs didn't want to go away. Hell he was heavy. Oh, shit. Well, whatever, if anyone saw them like this, they could get ideas and rumours and fan girls crying like babies wasn't something Sasuke longed for. And he had to wake up sometime. Surely. Sasuke sighed and continued to study the other ones face. Doesn't he have strange eyes? All blue and… blue. It was like those eyes… like they couldn't hide anything. There was no shadow in these lovely oceans of… blue. They didn't reflect the pain and loneliness that Naruto must have felt. Must feel.

What wouldn't he give for having the chance to…

Oh no. Oh hell no.

Sasuke wanted to smack himself. Baka. Ahou. If he could see right in to those eyes, right now...

Then wouldn't it be logical if the owner of those eyes could look right into his?

"Sasuke?" Exactly

He wanted to disappear into the earth.

I was caught. Hell no!


I wonder how he'll talk himself out of this one...?

God I'm tired. Hope I didn't make any fatal spelling mistake. I am my own beta. And if I did; sorry. My bad. I think I'll go to bed now... If I get there before falling asleep... Wait and...and...what is it that you say? Wait and...? Well, you'll have to wait for the update anyway. Godnatt, Sverige. And dear readers. If I have any. (Oh shut up, Emmy) I will. I promise. (-my birthday is just a week away-) That's not an exuse.

So, now.

G'night
