Sasuke's POV
Sasuke sat in homeroom, waiting for Naruto to arrive. Was he always this late? He wanted to invite him to go to lunch somewhere. When you think about it, he doesn't know much about Naruto. So he figured going to lunch somewhere would be a good way they could talk for a significant amount of time without interruptions. In the meantime, he decided he would continue reading a book he had found in the local library. It was called A million little pieces. It was about a alcoholic for 10 years and a crack addict for 3. He woke up in a plane with his 4 front teeth missing, a hole in his cheek, and a broken nose. When he got off, he signed up for treatment at a facility. The book's about his 6 weeks in rehab.
It was good, so far. He had only just started reading it.
" Hey, Sasuke! " Or maybe he wouldn't read it. He looked up to see a dog-like person standing before him, his hand stretched out. He wanted this person to leave. He looked like he had fleas. Sasuke scooted to the side some to spread some space between the two of them. The person eventuality put his hand down and frowned at him.
" Your not very friendly, are you? " The unknown person said.
Not to dog people...
" Come on! You talk to Naruto, don't ya? Its okay, I'm a friend of his. " Naruto's friends with this guy. Note to self: Give Naruto Anti-Flea products.
" Aren't you going to say anything! " The dog-person said in an exasperated tone.
…....
…....
" go away. " Sasuke didn't like dogs. At all. He very much preferred cats. In fact, he had 3 of them at home.
" Asshole!! Why would Naruto want to hang out with a jerk like you?! " Did this idiot just insult him?
Sasuke stood up and punched him straight across his face so that he slammed into the desks In the next row. Sasuke then proceeded to sit down and finish where he left off in his book. He doesn't like people insulting him. Naruto is the only exception because he insulted him first, and he stopped anyway after that conversation in 2nd period yesterday. Shouts of ' Kiba! ' ran through the room.
So that's what the dog-person's name is. He was almost positive he'd kill him by Christmas.
It was about 3 minutes before homeroom ended when Naruto ran into the room. He put his hands on his knees and was panting as if he ran a long time. However, Naruto recovered quickly and sat in his seat. Sasuke turned to greet him.
" Are you always this late? " Naruto grinned at him and laughed. " Yeah! Pretty much! " He shook his head at him.
" Naruto! You missed it. Uchiha punched Kiba straight into the desks. " Some guy who had appeared to be sleeping the whole time said to Naruto.
Naruto stared wide-eyed at him for a moment before returning to face the other guy.
" Really!! What happened?! Is Kiba okay?! "
" Well, Kiba attempted to get Uchiha to talk after he wouldn't respond to him when he said hello. Uchiha just eventually said for him to go away. Kiba called him an asshole and that's when Uchiha punched him. Shino took Kiba to the nurse's office. There was no blood or anything so he should be okay. "
" I'm glad. " Naruto faced Sasuke and glared at him. " You didn't have to punch him, teme! Jeez! "
Naruto was taking his side? Sasuke gripped the book tighter in his hands. " He insulted me. "
" That's still no reason to punch him into a freaking desk!! " The grip tighten yet again from his anger. He insulted him so he punched him. He is not at fault. So why is Naruto blaming him? He clenched his teeth.
" He deserved it. " Naruto just sighed, shook his head at him and turned away. Sasuke felt like a stubborn little kid who just got scolded. He hated it. He wanted to leave and vent his anger. It was unfortunate that he had no valid reason, therefore he couldn't leave the school. Looking down, and seeing he was about to tear his book in half, forced himself to calm down. He put the book away as 1st period started and stored his anger away for another time.
It was now gym and although there had been somewhat of a tense atmosphere between him and Naruto, it had simmered down enough for Sasuke to ask him about going to dinner someplace. Naruto agreed and decided on 6:30 that night. It would give them time to finished the small amount of homework they had that night and to get ready.
Now, though, they were running laps around the track outside the school. Sasuke was running at a more leaser pace, while Naruto ran almost to his limit racing with Kiba, who had come back from the nurse's in 2nd period, and some kid named Rock Lee who had freaky eyebrows. Sasuke was enjoying the day. It was one of the few remaining warm days before they would remain cold for fall and winter. Most would probably think he preferred the cold to the warmth but actually he preferred the more warmer weather such as in spring. It was ironic to him. A person who causes pain and death preferring the season of life.
The sound of a whistle being blown took Sasuke from his relaxed state and he joined the others in heading back into the school.
He saw Naruto waiting for him by the door when he came out of the locker room. Naruto smiled at him.
" Hey. " He put his hand up in greeting and together they started walking out of the school. Sasuke was turning toward the parking lot but stopped when he saw Naruto going the opposite way.
" Where are you going? " Naruto turned back around. " I just walk home. Its not that far. Only about 2 miles. "
" I have a car. I'll drive you. " Naruto shook his head. " Its fine. I walk home everyday so I'm used to it. " Sasuke walked up and grabbed his hand. " No. I'll drive you. Now come on. " He heard Naruto sigh.
" If you insist. " they reached his car and got in. The ride was pretty silent except for Naruto telling Sasuke the way to his apartment complex. When they got there, Sasuke surveyed the apartment complex. Considering how rich he is and the size of his house, the place was a dump for him. He didn't like it, nor the thought of Naruto living here. Ugh. He was about to drive off when Naruto opened the door and poked his head through.
" Sorry, but, where are we meeting for dinner, anyway? " Sasuke waved his hand to demist the sentence.
" Don't worry about it. I'll pick you up. " Naruto nodded. " Okay. " He watched Naruto leave into the complex before driving off. He had picked a nice, seafood restaurant that he believed Naruto would enjoy. It was cheap ( AN: To him! Rich bastard ) and the food was excellent.
He arrived home and set out what he needed for his homework. Then he went into his kitchen and set out a big bowl of cream and filled their food bowl for his cats. Immediately, the 3 cats came into the room and went for the cream and food. Sasuke sat down on the floor for a moment, petting them while they ate. Their names were Yamiko, a black cat with one white paw. He had violet eyes. Midori, a pure white colored cat with soft green eyes. She was the youngest, and sweetest. The last one was Yumi. She was golden colored with deep, dark blue eyes. She was pregnant with kittens. They were due in 2 weeks and Sasuke was excited. He knew they were going to be beautiful. He had even already bought a bed for them and sat it in a corner in the cat's room. ( AN: Yes, they have their own room. )
He left after a few minutes and sat down to complete his homework. It was fairly easy and it was done within 45 minutes total. He looked at his clock to check the time. It was 5:00 now, so he'll have plenty of time to take a shower, get ready, etc. before having to leave to pick up Naruto. He gathered the stuff needed and walked into his bathroom. He reached into a cabinet under the sink counter and pulled out lavender flavored shampoo and conditioner and Sakura blossom flavored liquid soap before heading to the shower. He usually had a small assortment of different shampoos/conditioners and soaps
( Liquid and regular ) in case he ran out of one or just wanted a different kind.
He tested the water. He liked hot showers. Not so hot that they would burn him, but enough so it would relax him. As he washed, he banished all thought from his head and concentrated on the feeling of the water on his skin and the smell of the soaps soothing his senses.
Naruto's POV
Naruto stood before his closet, clad in only a towel. He was looking through his closet, wondering what to wear. It wasn't a date or anything, he knew that. But this always happens when he goes out with his friends. Even if its informal, he would still like to look nice going out. In the end, he chose a orange shirt, black pants, and an black jacket. He also had on the necklace Tsunade-baa-chan, his grandmother, gave to him. He moved over to the mirror to check himself. He shook his head a bit to ruffle it. Yeah, he looked good.
When he looked over at the clock. He smiled. It was 6:00. Sasuke would get there soon. He was ready and bored, so he decided he would just sit and watch TV until Sasuke arrived.
Sasuke's POV
It was now 6:00 and Sasuke was walking out the door to drive to Naruto's. If he wasn't ready, he'd just wait for him. For his attire, he chose a black, button down shirt with sleeves that came to his elbow and black pants. It was about an 10 minute drive from his house to Naruto's. So, Sasuke stopped by a
near by store to pick up a present for him.
When he resumed his drive, it was 6:20. It didn't take long for him to arrive at Naruto's apartment. He walked into the complex and asked the lady up front what number is Naruto apartment room. Then he walked up to where the room was. Sasuke knocked on the door. He heard some shuffling before Naruto opened the door.
" Hey. Lets go. " He nodded and they left to the car. After they had gotten into the car and Sasuke was driving to the restaurant, Naruto turned his head to face him.
" So where are we going anyway? You never told me. "
" We're going to a seafood restaurant I enjoy. I think you'll enjoy it. You don't have a problem with seafood, do you? "
Naruto chuckled. " Of course not! I love seafood! " Sasuke smirked. " Good. "
They pulled up to the restaurant's parking lot and walked in. Naruto gasped beside him. " Whoa . " It was one of those really nice restaurants that had only the best quality food. You know, the kind only super-rich people can go to. They were seated at a table and Sasuke picked up his menu. He knew what he wanted after a few moments. He looked over it to see Naruto staring astonished at the menu.
" What? " Naruto looked up at him panicked. " What do you mean ' what? '?! I can barely pay for my drink, let alone a meal! " Sasuke's eyes widened. Seriously?
" Your being serious? "
" Of course I am! Not all of us can be rich like you! " Sasuke shrugged. " Then I''ll pay for you. "
Naruto quickly shook his head. " No! No! I can't ask you to do that! Its way to expensive! " Sasuke looked at him with glint in eyes.
" Naruto, this place is cheap for me. I'll have no problem paying for you. "
" Really? "
" I would not offer, if I would not go through with it. " Naruto smiled at him. " Thank you! "
It wasn't long before the waitress came for their orders. Sasuke ordered for them. " We'll both have the lobster and crab legs. Also, I want an order of oysters and an order of clams. " He paused so she could right it down.
" For our drinks, We would like an sprite for me and orange soda for my friend. " The waitress smiled.
" Okay. Right away, sir. " The waitress walked off to put in the orders.
( AN: I know that sound weird to have in that kind of restaurant but there only like 15 and 16. They're not having wine or something. )
" Okay, so, where should we start? " Naruto inquired. Sasuke looked thoughtful before answering.
" Family? " Even though his own family history isn't that good, he was sure Naruto's family would probably be a nice topic for him.
" My parents are dead. " Never mind. Naruto gave a small, sad smile before continuing
" I have adoptive parents, but you already met them. " Sasuke's head tilted in confusion.
" I have? " Naruto beamed. " Yeah! Kakashi-sensei and Iruka-sensei of course! "
…... Now that was something that made Sasuke's normally stoic face show shock. He had never expected the pervert teacher and the bipolar teacher to be together. The scary thing about it was that on some level, it made since.
" HaHa! You should see your face! I'm glad! I got you to show actual emotion! " Naruto laughed until tears formed in his eyes.
" Ow! " That was from Sasuke kicking him from under the table.
Naruto's POV
The waitress came back with there drinks. She told them there would only be a few moments until their food would be ready. Naruto sipped at his drink while waiting expectantly for Sasuke to tell him about his family.
" My parents are also dead. I have an older brother. However, I haven't seen him in a couple of years."
Naruto frowned. " I'm sorry. Perhaps we can find him somewhere. " Sasuke blinked. " I hope it stays that way. " He shrugged. " I don't like my brother too much. Besides, he lives a couple of cities away last time I heard. I haven't seen him because I have no wish to. "
Naruto laughed nervously at the determined look in his eyes. " O-Oh. Okay then. " Naruto thought about which topic they could cover next.
" What about TV? " Sasuke sipped his drink then answered.
" I tend to watch anime mainly. I also read manga in my spare time. You? " Naruto nodded in response.
" Me too. "
" Music? " Naruto thought for a moment. " I like techno a lot. But rock is my favorite. "
" Hn. I like rock best. But it really depends on the singer or band. " Naruto 'hmmm'ed.
" Yeah, I understand. Do you have a favorite song? " Sasuke leaned forward and sat his head on his hands, which were propped up.
" Yeah. ' Happy Birthday ' by The Birthday Massacre. You? "
" Oh! I love that band! Urm...mine would have to be....' Straight to video ' by MSI. "
" Hn. I don't particularly like them, but there okay. Literature? "
" Um...I like all kinds. I'll read a book if it hold my interest. As for genres, I prefer fantasy, but horror/sinister are usually good choices as well. Oh! Do you have a favorite anime? "
" Yeah. Its higurashi no koro ni. "
" I enjoy Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. Its the best. I don't mind higurashi, but its confusing. "
( AN: I LOVE Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei!!! Its the best!!!! I love higurashi no koro ni too. But not as much. )
" I've read the manga. I'll make sure to watch the anime. "
" I already read the manga too. There both good. "
The waitress came back with their food. Sasuke calmly starting eating the seafood. Naruto, on the other hand, dug in and devoured. Poor food...and Sasuke.
Sasuke's POV
Sasuke watch in astonishment as Naruto ate the food as if he were a vacuum. He vaguely wondered if he ever choked. Keeping his outward appearance in his usual position, he paused in eating and spoke.
" Naruto, perhaps you should down before you choke to death. At least drink something. " Naruto stopped eating and blushed.
" Sorry. I'm always like this. Thanks again for the food, Its really good. " Naruto slowed down in his eating and made sure to drink when necessary.
" Your welcome. "
The night ended well enough. The plan succeeded. They knew a bit more about each other and simultaneously, they grew closer. Yes, the night was an enjoyable one. By the time he dropped off Naruto and headed home, Sasuke had even forgotten about his anger from that morning. That was actually a significant point because Sasuke knew he could hold a grudge for a long time.
Sasuke, when he remembered to do so, walked into his room. He reached inside of a locked drawer and pulled a slip of paper. He calmly wrote down the name Kiba on the slip before retiring to bed.
