Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.


I think we're together. Our actions tell us so. You care, I care. Isn't that how all relationships go? I'm very confused…but I don't ask. I let my instincts take over. I do what I think I should and do what feels right. Please accept this.


"Man that is it!" Naruto yelled battered and beat up.

"What is it this time Naruto…?" Sakura sighed.

"How could you ask that! Aren't you tired of being assigned as a body guard on a supposedly harmless mission and it becomes something as dangerous as a S-class mission!" He yelled in answer.

Sasuke glanced at him and started to part way.

"Where are you going Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked with her kiss up voice.

"Oh please…" Naruto murmured and looked off to the side with a jealous look.

"I'm going home." He answered simply. Sakura ran after him latching on to his arm.

"Can I come please!" She begged. Sasuke scoffed and rolled his eyes. He looked at her puppy dog eyes and nodded. She yippee-d and followed.

Naruto looked at this sight crossing his arms and looking the other way walking to his own apartment. He couldn't help but feel the pang of jealously in his heart.

'Damn Sasuke! Always taking Sakura-chan away from me…' He screamed at Sasuke mentally. As his trek to his house went on he felt a stinging in his eyes. 'Ugh they should be together! It saves me the pain...' He said now running to his apartment in pure anger.

When he reached his destination he slammed the door close and jumped on his bed and idly started biting the corner of his pillow.

"Damn't Sasuke-teme! Always doing this bullshit!"

"Ouu what'd he do!" A voice rang out jumping Naruto causing him to fall off his bed.

"Kakashi-sensei! What brings you here today!" Naruto said in a sarcastically happy tone.

"Oh my gosh! Naruto! Long time no see girlfriend!" Kakashi said rivaling Naruto's sarcasm with a flip of his hand. Naruto pouted but couldn't help but giggle at the sound. Kakashi chuckled and smiled at Naruto still standing at the window sill. "So how was the mission?"

"Fine…"

"What did you guys do afterwards?"

"Walk back."

"You didn't go hang out or something? Go to each others houses?"

Naruto flinched. "No we didn't."

"You're not very talkative today. Especially since something very exciting is going to happen two weeks!"

"The festival right?" Naruto said all to knowingly.

"No ramen's gonna fall from the sky!"

"Oh my gosh really!" Naruto yelled happily.

"No! The festival!" Kakashi said as if he didn't just get Naruto's hopes up and then send then crashing into a pit of fire. "Make sure and wear something n—!"

"I'm not going…" Naruto said in a broody tone.

"What? Why not that has got to be the only event I wouldn't imagine you not going too." He said in surprise.

"I got nobody to go with." He said in a bored tone laying down on the floor.

"Go with Sakura."

"Pfht she's going with Sasuke probably." He said rolling his eyes.

"True…Hinata?"

"She says she has to go with the Hyuuga family it's a honor." Now counting the cracks in the ceiling. He knew all the reasons he wasn't going to go with all the girls in Konoha so it was a lost cause asking him.

"I see…Ino?" Naruto gave him a disgusted look.

"What you don't like her?"

"No it's just she's the last girl I'd think of."

"That means Tenten's out…"

"Give it up Ka—."

"Sasuke."

"Are you joking!" Naruto said rocketing up from his laying place on the floor. By the time he had gotten up Kakashi was gone only leaving a note in his place. The kanji of 'Mission' was on the scroll. He opened it.

"Take Uchiha Sasuke to the Konoha Festival, Hatake Kakashi"

Naruto's eyes boiled with anger and he threw the scroll out the window. "I can't believe this…"

"Dobe." A deep voice commanded towards Naruto causing shivers up his back.

"Teme."

"Stop throwing things out your window this is the 6th time this week." He scolded throwing the scroll at Naruto's head.

"Itai…asshole." He muttered rubbing his head. Then he realized it was the scroll. "You didn't open it did you!" Naruto started freaking out.

"No."

"Good!" He chirped with a happy smile.

"Sasuke-kun!" They heard a high female voice outside and he visibly flinched. Naruto's face darkened and he turned around placing the scroll on his side table. "Go" He said silently. He heard Sasuke walking away but then thought 'Wait a minute…he never even came i—.' His thoughts were interrupted with a gasp as he felt a hand against his own. "Bye dobe." A surprisingly soft voice said. Naruto turned around to find Sasuke smiling at him. Naruto couldn't help but smiled back and grip the paper in his hand harder. He brought the gripped hand to his heart and nodded.

"Bye teme."
