I LOVE YOU, I DON'T

Disclaimer: I asked dear ol' Santa to give me Naruto this Christmas but all I got was a sock full of shurikens and kunais and promises of painful death if I ever try to steal Naruto again.
Uzumaki Naruto has always been the village's greatest prankster. One of his best was the graffiti drawn across the Hokage Mountain. Of course, there is always his sexy no jutsu but that was reserved for… emergency purposes only. His other pranks are not to be revealed; hence they come handy in the near future.
Uchiha Sasuke has never been one to lie. Whatever he says, he sees to it that it ends up done with. His words are his actions. When he said he's going to leave the village, he left. When he said he's going to hunt Itachi down and kill him, he did. When he said he's going to revive his clan… well, he hasn't exactly done it yet but he's down that road. Really.
So when Naruto non-chalantly told him "I like you" while they were sparring, in the middle of punching his guts, I might add, he automatically threw back an "I don't" quite quickly, returning the punch with a kick in the chest.
"Can't you see that I fucking care?!" Naruto shouted back heatedly, a couple of shurikens thrown with his statement.
Sasuke expertly blocked them all with a kunai before looking at the blonde, echoing his earlier words coldly. "I don't."
Apparently, it's not that easy to convince Sasuke of his feelings. Ah, the drawbacks of being a prankster. It's like the boy who cried wolf. But who cares about a boy and a wolf? This is Sasuke and Naruto we're talking about. If one Naruto is not enough to convince Sasuke, perhaps a hundred of him would do.
A couple of hand signs and a cry of "kage bunshin no jutsu" later, the training area was full of hundreds of Narutos proclaiming their love for a certain Uchiha Sasuke. The raven replied his usual "I don't" before burning down all of Naruto's shadow clones with his Katon no Jutsu.
Hidden by the thick cloud of smoke of disappearing shadow clones, Naruto took the chance to jump on Sasuke and pin him to the ground. "I'm not kidding, Sasuke."
Sasuke knew Naruto was beyond serious. He may be a prankster but he never jokes about this kind of things. He sighed. Naruto was the prankster, not him. Besides, Uchiha Sasuke never lies. Black eyes met clear cerulean ones.
"I was," a mocking smirk formed from the Uchiha's lips but his eyes spoke differently. "Dobe."
A huge grin was threatening to split Naruto's face into two. "Teme," he leaned in close enough to whisper on Sasuke's ear. "Got ya. I've always known you were gay."
The blonde quickly jumped off of the raven, laughing insanely while trying to evade the kunais and fire jutsus thrown his way. His attempts on assuring Sasuke that he was only kidding when he said he was kidding, if that made any sense, were ignored.
Uzumaki Naruto has always been the prankster and Uchiha Sasuke has never been one to lie. But sometimes, it doesn't hurt to be a little bit of both at the same time.

blissbubbles: okay, that was… short. And sense-less. Gah. Randomness strikes again. XD Unedited (when did I ever edit my fics? XD). And I'm not sure with the name of the jutsus. If I made any mistake, please tell me. Thanks. XD Merry Christmas to all!
