Assassination

Summary: Uchiha Sasuke, professional assassin, known to kill victims in the blink of an eye without a trace of emotion. And he's never failed his reputation. But what if the target he's supposed to kill, is the woman he's fallen in love with? SasuSaku.


Chapter 2 – Meeting

"Oi," Sasuke called, nudging the blond-haired body that was Naruto's.

It was currently 5:30 a.m., and it was time for the two to start their "mission".

Naruto rolled over in his bed, "Ramen…" he mumbled in his sleep. "Lots and lots of ramen…"

Sasuke forced himself to not beat the crap out of Naruto, his patience growing thin.

Is ramen all the idiot ever thinks about? Sasuke wondered when Naruto rolled over on his bed again and mumbled more about ramen.

"Get up, lazyass," called the Uchiha once again in a monotone voice, nudging Naruto once more.

"Five more minutes… I want my ramen…" came the mumbled reply, turning over to the side again.

The raven-haired assassin sighed inaudibly, walking into the bathroom in the rented suite of Naruto's and getting a cup full of ice-cold water.

"Idiot," Sasuke muttered, turning the glass over as the cold water splashed on his partner's whiskery face.

Naruto immediately sat up, shaking his head roughly. "W-What the hell?! Sasuke-teme, what're you doing here?! And where'd that water come from?! And why are you smirking?!"

Sasuke had smirked from Naruto's reaction, "Get ready, we have targets to kill."

Naruto grumpily crossed his arms, "You're a bastard, you know that?"

The Uchiha's hand came in contact with the back of the blond's head, giving him a slap. "And you're an idiot. Now get up, let's go." Naruto frowned as he rubbed the spot where Sasuke had hit him, proceeding to walk over to his suitcase.

Since Sasuke just had a dark blue shirt with a wide collar that had the Uchiha Symbol on it's back along with a pair of dark sweatpants, Naruto decided just to wear ripped jeans and an long-sleeved orange shirt. Then he ruffled his sun-kissed blond hair, letting it naturally fix into its spiky manner.

"Done yet?" Sasuke asked in an impatient tone with a click of his tongue. "You take as long as a girl."

In response the blond killer growled, glowering at the calm man. "Jeez, teme! Give me a second, why don't you?! Order, order, order, I'm not your lackey that follows you around you know! You need me in this mission, I'm the one that's going to charm them, remember?"

"You're not the only one who can charm them, idiot," came the reply of the Uchiha, a stoic expression on his face as he slid his hands in his pockets. He began to walk outside of the inn they were staying at as Naruto followed him closely behind.

"Oh really?" challenged Naruto with a scoff. "You, ice-cube Uchiha Sasuke-teme, can charm a woman?" He snickered, "Yeah, right! When you do, hell will freeze over. And you'll know because you'll be in hell by the time you charm a woman!"

Sasuke grunted, giving the boy a side glance. "You think I can't charm a woman? Apparently you don't know me at all, dobe."

Naruto shrugged, "Just because you lost your virginity the same age I lost mine, before me too, doesn't mean you can charm a woman." He paused and muttered, "You probably tricked the chick or something…" This time he spoke louder, "Hey, how much did you pay her?" The comment earned him a hard punch in the arm. Naruto flinched, rubbing the spot before muttering curses to the man next to him.

"It doesn't matter whether I can or not," Sasuke replied, cracking his knuckles. "Either way I'm going to have to since you can't charm both of the targets." He spoke in a knowing tone.

A sheepish grin came across Naruto's face, "I can charm them both! I can have the two hanging by my arms in two seconds flat! One second for each of them that is."

"You're not here to charm girls, Naruto, we're here to kill our targets," the raven-haired killer replied coolly, looking around their surroundings once they exited the inn they were staying at.

"You take things way to seriously, especially the missions Akatsuki gives us. Lighten up, Sasuke-bastard!"

"Shut up," he snapped back, walking towards a restaurant with Naruto behind him. As they passed, girls walking by them blushed and giggled. Naruto smiled charmingly back at them and Sasuke remained stoic; punching Naruto every time the blond-haired assassin smiled.

"Stop being so friendly. We're here for professional business."

"What if one of the girls are our targets and they changed their looks after they took the photo?" Naruto said, surprising in a clever manner.

Sasuke grunted. Damn, he's got a point. There's no date as to when these photos were taken.

Naruto grinned at Sasuke's clenched mouth, "Ha! I stumped the 'great' Uchiha!"

Sasuke whacked him from the back of the head, and Naruto glared. "Quit doing that!" the blond assassin complained.

In response his associate grunted, "For God's sake, Naruto, you're 18 years old, start acting like it."

Naruto scowled, "I am acting like it! Like the time we got that assignment to that blonde chick and I—"

"I don't need information on your sex life, dobe." Sasuke said, quickly cutting Naruto off.

The appealing man gave a sheepish grin, "Why not? Normal guys talk about sex, and I figured since we're both guys, we should—"

"Shut up," Sasuke said gruffly.

Naruto shrugged, "Fine, if you don't want to talk about my sex life, what about yours, teme?"

Sasuke almost fell over from Naruto's question as they walked along the streets. "None of your business," he said sternly.

The blond eyed Sasuke with distinct cerulean blue eyes, "Oh, really? Maybe you've just never had sex and you're too s-s-scared to admit it," he said in a mocking voice, continuing, "and you never really did lose your virginity, and you just said that as a lie to make yourself look cool. Hah, as if any girl that isn't out of their mind would want to bed you!"

Sasuke glared at Naruto, realizing that he wasn't going to give the subject up unless he gave proof. He sighed, "Remember that assignment we got to that red-haired girl? Her name was Ami or something…"

His partner nodded, "Yeah, I remember. I charmed her and left her with you to kill…" he paused for a moment, "She is dead, right?"

The Uchiha nodded, and a smirk came on his face, "Aa, but before I killed her, I fucked her, five times straight. And there were plenty of other assignments where I—"

"Damn, Sasuke! You sex-hound!" Naruto commented, laughter erupting from the man. "Oh well, look on the bright side, you're not alone! Just look at me for example!" The blond pointed to himself proudly.

"Right…" Sasuke muttered under his breath, before pulling Naruto fiercely and shoving him inside a dark shadow of a building.

Naruto raised his eyebrow, "Teme? What the hell was that for?" Sasuke punched him as an effort to halt Naruto's questioning, causing the said person to growl, "Hey! What are you—?"

"Shut up," Sasuke growled, "the targets are right there."

Naruto cocked his head to the side in a confused manner, peering over Sasuke's broad shoulder to see where the said man was looking at. He followed his onyx gaze to a pair of two girls, the same girls that matched the photos they were given. The pink-haired girl beamed at the dark-haired one, talking consistently as the dark-haired girl nodded meekly and had a light blush on her cheeks.

"Shall we go make ourselves known?" asked Naruto, beginning to walk over to them with an appealing smile on his face until Sasuke jerked him back from his collar.

"Not yet, let's see what they're talking about," his co-worker answered as Naruto nodded at the plan.

The two girls were standing near a grocery store, just at the outside of it. "Hinata-chan," Sakura said, holding up an orange as she talked to the girl named Hinata. "What do you—hey, what're you doing? Come here and help me select what fruits we should get for the party!"

"U-Um, Sakura-chan, its not really mandatory that we bring something…" Hinata mumbled, index fingers pressing together in a shy habit.

Sakura glanced at her, "I know! But it's at one of the rooms in the Hokage's Mansion, I think we should bring something decent, right?"

Naruto and Sasuke, after moving so that they were a few feet away from them but were still hidden, glanced at each other from the set of information they had just received.

"Oh? They're going to a party tonight?" Naruto said, and Sasuke ignored him and continued listening to them.

"Sakura-chan, i-it's 3:00 p.m. right now. The party doesn't start till 7:00 p.m." The Hyuuga informed quietly.

Sakura shrugged commenting nonchalantly, "Yeah, I guess you're right." She began walking, tossing the orange she had held in her hand back into the pile of oranges she had retrieved it from. "Let's just go and find something to wear to it. Tsunade-sama said to be formal."

This is too easy, Sasuke thought. They just gave us all the information we need to find them.

"Ne, that dark-haired girl, Hinata I think her name was, is pretty quiet," spoke Naruto, putting his hand up to his chin as a grin spread on his face, "I like it!" He turned over to his raven-haired best friend, "What do you think of the pink-haired girl? Sakura or something, right?"

The Uchiha shrugged, "She's okay."

Naruto scoffed and nudged Sasuke, "Yeah, right! You couldn't take your eyes off of her!" The said man glared at Naruto who smiled triumphantly in return, "See? I'm right!"

Naruto received another blow from the raven-haired man, causing Naruto to frown deeply, "Stop that, dammit! I'm fucking serious!"

Sasuke simpered at his reaction, "Dobe."

Naruto frowned deeper, yelling in response, "Teme!" The blond-haired assassin got up, brushing imaginary dust off of him, "Can we go introduce ourselves to them now?"

Sasuke shook his head, "Not yet."

Naruto groaned, "When then?!" he whined, "I'm getting bored!"

"Shut up, dumbass. We'll make ourselves known at that party tonight."

Naruto glanced at Sasuke curiously, "How will we do that? Aren't they only going to allow certain people in?"

Sasuke looked dully at Naruto, "Idiot, we've been trained on this before."

The latter person scratched his head, "Really? When? You mean from Kakashi-sensei? I don't remember…"

Sasuke clenched his mouth, Why, out of all of the other assassins, was I paired up with this idiot? Did they want to see me torture? Who the hell in their right mind could even stand him?

"Hello? Teme? Are you spacing out or something?!"

Naruto's outburst brought Sasuke out of his thoughts.

Then again, he does have skills most others do not possess.

"Hn. Don't worry about getting in, I'll take care of that." At the piece of information, Naruto nodded.

At seven o' clock that day, it would be the beginning of the end for their targets.
