Obviously, I was in my house.
But I was in my house, wondering if the person, who I can't call a bastard or dumbass because he was abnormally quiet, was going to bother me in any way possible by coming over.
Not that I wanted him to come over, I just wanted a little notice of anyone who would try to invade my home. Who knows, he might have a family come over and come into my house, making it quickly crowded, which would result in everyone talking to me and I would pass out, scared to death. Then I would freak out on the floor, while they would talk and yell about it, and I would foam from the mouth while their pet dog (They now have a dog) would sink its fangs into me because it would be scared, and I would bleed to death.
So yes, I want notice before I bleed to death, thank you very much.
"Maybe I'm worrying! I should stop." I grabbed my cat figurine "I can take a hot bath... But what if he comes and yells at the door, making me feel bad and freak in the bathroom..." I trailed off "And the dog will bite me and I'll bleed to death."
I looked at the figurine and put it next to the door while I leaned against it "Why is he so quiet?"
Deciding that it wasn't worth the trouble, I promptly entered the living room. Everything was the same, comfy way I left it, no dog anywhere. Maybe I have a fear of dogs now? Why am I thinking about dogs, anyways?
There wasn't much to do. I could watch T.V. but that always turned out to be boring. I could play with myself on a board game, but I always took a side and cheated.
"Blagh."
I paced a bit before taking my phone and calling Jiraya. He wouldn't be busy. Wait, doesn't he own a hot springs? "Hello? Naruto, I'm busy. You know that. Now, I have to go! A woman just screamed and it's my chance to peek!" He hung up too quickly for my liking. No wonder he would be looking at women. The only way he got business was from how high stars the hot springs had.
Jiraya was one of the people I actually let in my house, as with Tsunande. Not much people would come here because they knew how sensitive I was about all of them coming over.
I always was nice, and so some of the people living in the building would come over.
Hinata and Kiba, a couple who lived on the 6th floor, would come up for a chat and Hinata would cook me dinner whenever she felt like it. Ino lived on the 6th floor and came over when people were coming over, and I had Sakura come over couple times. But that was about it.
"Hey there, me and Hinata can't answer the phone right now! But leave your name and number and we'll get back to you!" Kiba's dog, Akamaru, was heard faintly in the backround. He was trained, so no one really cared about if the dog was allowed into the building.
"I'm bored," I went over to the door "Leave the door open."
I laughed and opened it, wanting to meet the man who lived next door. "Hmm." I grabbed a bouncy ball and played with it for a while, before bringing it to the door and throwing it.
'Bang'
I bounced off and I caught it, before throwing it on my lap. I waited a bit, listing intently for any noise. Not hearing anything I threw it two more times and swiftly catching them. I got good at it when I wanted something.
I heard someone stomping. Sounded like angry stomping. Heh, I should run.
Someone opened the door and stepped out "Hello?" a black haired man in sweatpants and a white t-shirt called out, looking twice around before sighing. He was about to go back in before I replied "Hello."
He looked down at me on the floor of my apartment "Who are you?" He raised his eyebrow at my strangeness, before a sneer set on his face "What do you want?"
"I'm Naruto." I gave a small smile "I just wanted to see who lived next to me. What's your name?"
"Well, now you have. And I'm none of your concern, but my name is Sasuke." He leaned on his door "Sasuke Uchiha." He stared me down. I sat there playing with the bright red ball in my hands.
I waited for him to ask what I was doing, but he stood there, staring. He looked like he was checking me out but I could see him twitch a bit to go inside. I talked a bit, making him narrow his eyes "Hello there." I repeated "Wanna talk? You seem kinda... Sad."
He turned around and slammed his door shut before letting out an annoyed grunt.
I remembered his dark onyx eyes, rimmed with a little red. He looked like he had gotten upset by something, and I guess he had by the way he slammed his door right in front of me, even if it was rude.
He might me rude, but I was going to talk to him tomorrow. I knew I didn't want any chances of coming out, but right about now I needed a friend. I needed someone to take my attention away from being bored.
Not that it was shallow, but it would be nice to talk to someone.
It wasn't that loud being alone. I just needed something to break the silence in my thoughts. It's so boring being alone sometimes.
I'll try tomorrow with Sasuke…. Or in a week.

CRASH
"Fuckin' alarm clock!" My deformed voice from sleep yelled out into the empty apartment, making myself get a bit of a boost.
Why did I even have an alarm clock? I broke every alarm clock that set foot in my apartment. Nothing could suppress my anger of waking up; thus sleeping for 3 days straight sometimes.
"Mmhmm. Hinata's food." She always left a plate of breakfast on the floor outside me apartment door, so I wouldn't fall asleep starving. Once I'm asleep, I'm as exciting as a dead person. I tried to practice at snoring when I slept, because of people's 'You sleep like an angel' remarks.
I was surprised at how I couldn't smell it. Usually the aroma woke me up instantly, with it filling the apartment and sticking before I ate it.
I wobbled to the door in my penguin pyjamas (Frog ones were dirty) and opened my door, gasping.
The food wasn't there.
At first I thought 'She didn't have time today' but thought otherwise when Satan's (Sasuke's) apartment smelled faintly at Hinata's trademark pancakes and syrup.
She always made them especially for me. With strawberries and whipped cream, making a happy face with a blueberry mouth.
I growled, grabbing my red ball.
"CLUNK"
I threw it at his door as hard as I could "Sasuke!"
I heard stomps coming towards Sasuke's door, making it obvious that he was angry. His face scowled at me from the door, having an icy glare that would make people shake (I didn't care, though. I WANT MAH FOOD!)
"What the fuck do you want-" "FOOD SNATCHER!" I cut him off and raised my fists "I want my happy face."
"What? Idiot," He leaned on the side of his door, a flash of a smile on his lips "Who said I took anything? Don't accuse people straight off."
"I know you took it." I sat of the floor, curling up and glaring at him. It took my all to keep a pout off of my face. Never knew why I'd pout. "Hinata made it for me. I smell it in your apartment."
"Smell something? Here?" He pointed inside, mocking me.
"Yes, in there. She makes me a smiley face out of a pancake. I don't eat breakfast, you know." I whined, staring inside his amazingly clean house. I could see it now. I would charge in there and eat it and run away, roundhouse kicking Sasuke in his sexy face... mean ugly face.
"Oh, Naruto. I don't like sweet things," He said bluntly "And I don't care about your habits."
"Well, did you eat it? Do you have it?" My stomach growled silently, making me cringe. I didn't eat a lot, since I had a bit of trouble outside my window.
"I told you, idiot. I don't eat sweet things. I also don't like repeating myself," he smiled dangerously "But do I have it? Not for long."
I felt my stomach lurch, wanting to pop out and kill Sasuke.
"It's going to be on the pavement," he waved "I don't like sweet things, remember?"
"Grah! Give it to me!"
"Come out of your apartment, and get it, dumbass."
"I can't!"
"Why not? Since I've been here you haven't even got out from your hovel," He snorted "What, do you have a stupid 'condition' so you can't even come across the hall? Please, Naruto. Don't be a hermit and come over for your pancake."
"My pancake…" I whispered silently "I do have a condition. You're a bastard, you know that? All I wanted to do is be friends! Neighbor friends, ya know? Since I'm someone with a stupid condition, huh? Well, I'm reporting you to whatever police handle pancake situations like these."
"Hn."
"It's not my fault I can't go out," I whispered, going to close my door "I wish I was normal…"
I sat in my bed cuddled with my pillow, just to think for a bit.
Don't get me wrong, Sasuke was harsh towards me, but who cares? I thought about going out anyways. It was just the matter of accidents happening to me.
"Dismiss those thoughts, Naruto," I grabbed my frog purse and made it talk "Stay in. It's better."
"Yeah, yeah." I returned to my normal voice and tossed the green pouch to the floor. I didn't feel down, but a bit like I should pass out. Forever. Never ending sleep. It was just one of those days I wanted to stay in and avoid the world inside my apartment.
Knock.
I groaned and rolled over, not wanting to get up for whoever was knocking at the door. I could leave it for later. I had time for anything (Which is quite sad) and anyone.
Knock. Knock. Knock. Knock-
"What the fuck?" I blurted out and ran towards the door "Fuckin' hell!"
Slamming the door wide open, I saw Sasuke in all his glory holding a plate of breakfast foods "What do you want?" I sneered, grabbing my red ball "I'll throw this at your face, teme!"
"Japanese? Wow, didn't know you were capable," He smirked for a moment and brought the plate up to my nose "But since your food got cold I made you something. I'll be… acquainted with you for now."
"What?"
"You're annoying, loud, and make tremendous noise in the middle of the night."
"Yeah, so? You're not that good either, Mr. Quiet."
"I have no time for anything else," He sighed and narrowed his dark eyes "So I might as well get better acquainted with you. Nothing better to do than… Deal with you."
"Why with me? Who told you to do this," I shoved a piece of fruit in my mouth and Sasuke widened his eyes at me, looking at his hands before at mine. He didn't notice how I snatched it from him a while ago "Who said I wanted to get 'acquainted'?"
"Well, you're the one who suggested it." He moved a bit closer, looking inside.
"What? When did I suggest that?" He sighed and put his hand on the door frame "When you met me, remember? Now are you going to stand there and dawdle or let me in?"
I moved out of the way. I did remember.
"Who said I wasn't busy, Sasuke." I growled and put my plate on the table "Quite frankly you're rude."
"Can you stop repeating 'who said'? I'm not rude, just blunt."
"Mmhmm. Sit on the couch or something," I gestured to my blue couch in the corner. It would be wise to try and make friends "I'll let you in, for now~"
