NOTE:I was gonna post this a little later, but I'm still working on the next chapter to my other stories and I've had this one finished for a bit so I'm gonna post it now.
Hello everybody my name is Trevyler and welcome back to College Days. So last time we had Naruto, Naruko, and Menma heading off to college. This time we'll see a bit of the ride to Konoha University and meet some new characters. I'm still deciding what they should be going to school for too. I'm thinking Chef for Naruto or Naruko. Motorcycle technician or engineer for Menma for reasons I'll explain later. Now I've never been to college myself so, I'm basing this off of my knowledge of college. Still not gonna say what pairings are because that's not important yet. I will say that the main three will all be paired up with someone eventually. Anyway enjoy the chapter!
CHAPTER 2:FRESHMAN
The ride wasn't relatively long or short one, but that didn't make it easier on the three. Traffic made it easy to get separated and Naruto being a chatterbox to Naruko wasn't helping.
The two blondes got along well, but that didn't mean that they didn't have their fair share of arguments.
The car was a definite place for a lot of arguments. They couldn't agree what song to listen to on the radio. Then Naruko smacked Naruto on the back of the head for insulting her taste in music. She scraped Menma's car a little when she didn't pay attention and they both tried to argue that it was the other's fault.
Luckily Naruto fell asleep after the first half of the ride and Naruko got a little piece and quiet. Her brother was a knucklehead, but she still loved him.
Menma was cursing silently at his siblings stupidity. He tried to ignore by listening to some of his favorite metal and alternative music. His siblings called him emo, but he wasn't emo. He just liked the color black and happened to like music that was popular among angsty teens.
He couldn't wait for this ride to be over. He wanted to get to his room and get unpacking. He really hoped he got a decent roommate. Hopefully one that wouldn't bother him too much.
After about two hours of driving, they saw a sign showing that the campus was nearby. Naruko chose this moment to wake Naruto up so that he'd be ready when they got there.
The drive was worth it when the freshman all looked upon the campus that would be their future for the next few years.
They checked in and got their assigned rooms.
Naruto gave a thumbs, "Well what are you guys waiting for? Let's go see where we're staying!" he shouted.
Naruko followed closely behind. Menma chose to fast walk just enough to not lose them. He didn't have all that energy they had unfortunately. They all stopped when they realized that the brothers had to split from their sister to get to the corrects dorms. With a smile, a wave, and a promise to meet up for lunch and/or dinner, they were off. This was where they parted ways with Naruko heading on her own to the girls dorms while Naruto and Menma headed to the boys dorms.
They didn't realize just how big the dorms were until they got their. Naruto and Menma were assigned to the same floor, only a few rooms away from each other. Naruto thought it was nice to have his brother nearby while Menma didn't seem to care that much.
They used the stairs to get to their floor and broke off to go to their separate rooms.
Menma and Naruto stopped at their respective doors before taking a deep breath and opening the door.
Naruto opened the door and noticed that his roommate has already arrived. Although when he noticed a familiar symbol and a head of spiky black hair, his jaw dropped.
He let his things hit the floor, "Sasuke!" he said excitedly.
The Uchiha turned to the door, "Naruto? Is that you?" he asked.
The two rushed to each other and gave each other a fist bump. The two had been best friends, but hadn't seen each other in quite sometime.
Naruto grinned, "I haven't seen you since your family moved that summer before High School. When did you come back to Konoha?" he asked.
Sasuke put his hands in his pockets, "Just a few weeks ago. I needed to be here ahead of time to get used to everything here again. Luckily not much has changed so I basically spent the time making some last minute preparations for college. I also spent some time on dates." he answered.
Naruto snickered, "You? Dates? Come on Sasuke you've gotta be joking. You literally had every girl after you in middle school yet you weren't even remotely interested. Now you're telling me you went on multiple dates." he said as if it were the funniest thing ever.
The dark haired boy shrugged, "Joke all you want, but it's true. A couple years ago I started to grow out of being a loner and tried dating. Needless to say I'm very popular with the ladies." he said smugly.
The blonde threw his arm around his friend, "Well good for you. I was worried you were going to die along. I was even starting to think that people were right when they said you were gay." he teased.
Sasuke scowled, "I am not and have never been gay." he retorted.
Naruto chuckled, "I never said you were." he replied.
Sasuke turned around, "Just to let you know, the bed on the left is mine the other ones yours." he informed.
Naruto put his things on his side while Sasuke laid on his bed with his arms behind his head. Naruto did the same and took a relaxing breath.
The Uchiha looked over to the blonde, "So are you attending alone or did your brother and sister come with?" he asked.
Naruto grinned, "Naruko and Menma are here too. Menma's right down the hall actually. I wonder who his roommate is?" Naruto wondered aloud.
Speaking of Menma, he had just walked into his own room and was surprised by his own roommate.
A red-haired boy with dark circles around his eyes peered up at the newcomer, "Hello Menma. It's a surprise to see you here." he greeted.
Menma nodded, "Yeah. I wasn't expecting you either Gaara." he said in return.
Gaara had a book in hand, "I take it if you're here than your siblings are attending as well. Correct?" he questioned.
The black haired Namikaze put his hands in his pockets, "Well yeah. Naruto is down the hall actually. I assume you'll want to meet up with him." he answered.
Gaara nodded, "Yes. In the mean time you can take the remaining bed. I assume we'll get along fine. I don't remember you being quite socialable and I;m generally quiet so we shouldn't have a problem." he supposed.
Menma nodded with a slight grin, "Sure thing.I'm gonna start unpacking before I meet my siblings if you don't mind." he told the other male.
The red head nodded, "Not at all." he finished the conversation and returned to his book.
These two weren't very talkative so that didn't last long.
And that's chapter 2. Once again if you've got any suggestions for what they can be attending college for, hit me with a review or PM. I like feedback unless it's negative. Also if you didn't get it then Sasuke went from being emo to being a player. So from canon to being like his Road to Ninja counterpart. Gaara and Menma know each other, but as I pointed out, Menma was somewhat anti-social in school so he didn't have many friends. Therefore the only "friends" he really had were Naruto, Naruko and their friends. I was going to show Naruko and her roommate too, but I decided to leave her's a mystery for a later chapter. You'll understand why when it get's there. Anyway Have a great night and I'll see you next time.
