AND BECAUSE I FORGOT LAST TIME, I DONT OWN NARUTO FOR THIS AND THE LAST CHAPTER

CHAPTER ONE

You were at collage

Working part time, waiting tables

Left a small town

Never looked back

Uchiha Sasuke was not having a good morning. He had spent all night last night working the midnight shift at the Cafe and now he wanted to strangle Naruto for daring to set an alarm lock for him.

Why wouldn't the stupid inconceivable thing just shut up?

Perhaps if he ignored for a little while it would kindly see that he's not interested in getting up today and all he wanted to do was sleep, and shut up!.

Thankfully, the alarm clock seemed to get the message as it switched off and Sasuke too in a deep breath and promptly went back to sleep...

...for about four seconds, before the sound of his roommate banging into his new room send his head spinning. "Oi, Teme!" Naruto yelled as he kicked Sasuke's bed "wake up, didn't you hear the alarm?"

Sasuke groaned and hid his head under the covers. He and Naruto have been friends since they were in diapers, they grew up together and were there for each other their entire lives, they even shared an apartment together as college men. He was like Sasuke's unofficial brother.

But god be his witness, if that Dobe didn't get out in ten seconds flat Sasuke would sadly have to strangle him dead and find himself a new roommate.

Naruto didn't seem to mind his murderous best fiend as he opened the curtains.

Sasuke hissed like a vampire being exposed to light, he really wasn't a morning person. His ebony hair was sticking up in all sorts of odd angels, his face looked smooched from sleeping on his cheek all night and his eyes looked like all they wanted to do was close.

Close like their lives depended on it and Sasuke agreed with them entirely.

"Naruto, why the heck are you in my room, waking me of all people up at..." he looked at his clock and gritted his teeth to stay calm, but his vice was forced "...five in the bloody morning!"

Naruto looked at Sasuke like he was the crazy one.

"What do you mean, get up, were late. Do you have any idea how far away the college is from here, honestly Teme, and you call me and idiot?"

It took Sasuke ten seconds exactly to register what Naruto had just said.

1 second: he blinked

2 second: he yawned and completely disregarded what had Naruto said

3 seconds: he glanced at his alarms clock

4, 5, 6 and seven seconds: he registered exactly what Naruto had said

7 and 8 seconds: all the colour flooded from his face

9 seconds: his eyes widened

And finally, 10 seconds: he shot out of the bed crying "OH SHIT!" as he jumped of the bed with a new vigour and grabbed the towel Naruto held up for him and ran to the bathroom.

Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, SHIT!

How the heck had he forgotten?

Today was his first day at this college. Well this one anyway.

Sasuke used to go to Tokairo University in his home town, a small place near Hokkaido. But he had wanted to travel more, see the world. Do more with his life.

His dad had wanted him to stay in the own, because he was mayor there and it made a better impression if he stayed. It wasn't as if he didn't like his town, he loved it. It was great. It was just that it was too...small.

There was a whole world out there.

So when he and Naruto studied their buts off to get into this college in America, his older brother had stepped in.

Man, he really owed his brother for this...not that he didn't owe him for about a million other things as well but you know, just keeping track. Itachi had gone to his father and somehow with his magic touch managed to convince Uchiha Fugaku to let his younger son go away to college in America.

It wasn't the best college, but Sasuke hadn't really wanted to go to a really fancy college in Washington. He wanted some realism, because it made him feel a little closer to home. Although Tennessee wasn't as cold as Hokkaido it was still nice to see everyone living in towns like back home.

But the problem was, he and Naruto shared an apartment that was eight miles away from the College in the nearest city Konoha, so they had to wake up every morning to get their on time.

And he was making a brilliant first impression by being late on his first day!

He finished brushing his teeth and washing his face and ran out, he looked for a comb to run though the shag carpet that was his hair at this moment.

He ran out to find to his dismay that Naruto of all people was dressed before him. "Get your but in gear Teme!" he said, throwing him his comb.

Really, when Uzamaki Naruto was prepared before SASUKE then things were bad.

And half hour later and they were finally seated in Naruto's truck on their way to school. Naruto was dressed in jeans, black T-shirt and an orange bomber jacket with his green goggles on his forehead. Sasuke, still to this day did not know why he wore those.

"It's called style Teme" Naruto would always say.

But in Sasuke's opinion, if that was style, then he was the Queen of England.

He himself was dressed in jeans as well, only he wore a dark blue polo neck shirt and a black waist coat. His hair was brushed but still spiked out behind him in a way that contrary to popular believes was completely natural for him.

He watched as the scenery went by, it was really actually pretty good. Nothing like the snowy countryside of Hokkaido, but not bad.

There were a lot of farms though. Horse farms, pig farms, goat farms, apple farms you name it. If it was produce, Sasuke saw a farm for it.

"Oi Teme, stop being all silent over there, it's creeping me out, say something."

That was another thing. Sasuke himself was a little unsocial, someone who preferred having one or three people around him at a time while enjoying his personal space. Naruto was extremely social and needed to be around people and felt a little lost when he was alone. And yet they were best friends! What were the chances?

Eventually Naruto began to dive into the town.

It wasn't really a city, more like the biggest town out the lot. He liked it; it reminded him of his town in Hokkaido. Then Naruto pulled up at the college, it was one of those modern buildings with a touch of elegance to remind us of our past. The stone steps leading up to the oak doors reminded him of the stairs you might see before a museum.

Getting out of the truck Sasuke swung his blue backpack over his shoulders and slammed the door shut. Already he had grabbed the attention of a few girls hanging by their car as they looked at him with interest. All blonds and brunettes, Sasuke ignored them. He wasn't interested those phoney types like that.

In Hokkaido, he had had many girlfriends like that, being the mayor's son and one of the most popular boys in high school. They were all made up and plastic, only interested in having something nice to have on their arm to show off to other females, and he found it really annoying.

This year, this time, he wanted something genuine. His aim was to have a good year at college, make some friends, get good grades and get a girlfriend that didn't give him headaches every night.

"So Dobe, where's this pen-pal of yours?" he asked, referring to the boy Naruto had met online and had gotten to chatting with. He had promised to show him and Sasuke around the school when they got to America.

"Dunno" Naruto shrugged "He said he'd be here when he could.

Then they heard someone shout "Naruto, hey Naruto!" they both turned to see a boy with shaggy brown hair and strange magenta tattoo's on his cheeks. With him was another boy in a heavy coat and black sunglasses and a girl with long black hair and gray eyes, she was looking down shyly while trying not to bump into anyone.

"Yo Kiba!" Naruto said grinning "about time you showed up. "This here's the friend I told you about. Uchiha Sasuke."

Sasuke raised one hand and said the opening line of his old science teacher "Yo"

Kiba nodded "Hey, this is Shino" he pointed to the boy "and Hinata" he gestured to the girl. "So where you guys bunking?"

"In this apartment in another town, about eight miles from here." Sasuke answered.

Kiba kissed his teeth "man, that's rough, I live in a town four miles away and even that's tough, do you work?"

"Yeah" Sasuke nodded "I wait tables at this restaurant in this town, Roe's Café"

"I know that place" Kiba nodded "good food, cure girls, and they let dogs in."

"Dogs?"

"Kiba's family own the animal click in the next town" Naruto said slapping the boy on the back. Kiba grinned "Yeah, the Inuzuka care home for animals, my parents pride and joy. Anyway, let's get going, before class starts. Hina, Shino, you wanna come?"

The boy Shino shrugged while Hinata stuttered "O-Ok s-s-since I have n-nothing better to do."

Sasuke nodded and looked up at the college that he would be studying at for the next few years. Then he stopped when something caught his eye.

A girl was walking up the steps with her blond friend. He knew she was her friend because the girl was looking at her with warm expression in her deep green eyes. She was, well beautiful. She had long pink hair, tied back with a white headband. She was tall, but had curves, unlike a lot of the girls there. Her skin had a healthy flush to it; she waked with her back straight due to her holding some of her books in her arms rather that in the pink backpack on her shoulder.

She had a small smile and then suddenly she her face broke out in pearls of laughter at something the blond girl said. And he felt a weird pins and needles sensation. Her face looked so animated; he was astounded by her smile.

She was beautiful, but there were many beautiful girls. There was just something about her that drew him in, perhaps it was how expressional her face was, she was genuine. She was different.

Kiba noticed where Sasuke was looking and laughed "Hey man, don't go making moon eyes at her, she's off limits."

"Why?" Sasuke said "Who is she, is she dating someone?"

To this Kiba laughed "As if! That there is Sakura Haruno, Luke Carsons's daughter, he owns peach farm a little off from this town. She doesn't date, at all."

"What do you mean, she doesn't date." He watched as Sakura, (cool name by the way, Japanese?) walked into the building and she disappeared from view, but that pins and needles feeing he got when he saw her still hadn't gone away.

"What I mean is that girl has never had a boyfriend, she went on a couple of dates what she was in high school, after that she stopped. When ever someone asks her out, she flat out, turns them down."

"Hey, who you talking about" Naruto piped.

"Sasuke was just checking out the girl I told you about, you know? Impossible Haruno."

"Oh her." Naruto nodded "I heard all her friends are either girls, gay or already with someone."

"Yeah" Kiba nodded "Man know your easy on the eyes and all, but just forget about her, she's waaay out of your league. Go find some nice agreeable girl, no one needs someone as complicated as that."

But as they walked into class, Sasuke thought to himself with a smile 'but I like complicated'

Sasuke stretched and cricked his neck as the bell went signalling his last class for the day.

Finally…was what he wanted to say.

"Hey Sasuke" Naruto clapped him on the back "Me and the others are going down to the peer for a bit, you coming?"

"Sorry, can't" Sasuke shrugged "I gotta work, remember?"

Naruto nodded "Bummer man, I feel sorry for you." Naruto was adopted since his parents were dead. His grandfather Jiraiya was a famous novelist who made a lot of money and sent some to him every now and again.

Sasuke however, the one catch to his father letting him go to America was that he would only sent a money package for the school. But anything else like rent, food and thing Sasuke wanted, he would have to earn himself. Itachi tried to help out a bit, bit he was studying business in university himself and didn't have much to spare.

Sasuke didn't mind, though, while he wasn't too happy with his job, he didn't mind working for his meals for once, it was, interesting and real.

So he stood up and waved at Naruto "See ya" he called, before running off. While doing so, he glanced to his right. Luck would have it that Sakura was in most of his classes. She was also packing up her stuff while talking to Ino, the bond girl he had seen that morning.

She disappeared from his view as he ran out to his job.

Tomorrow he would talk to her, despite what Kiba had said about being, 'Impossible Haruno.'
