A/N: here's chapter three, enjoy!
"THAT HURTS! OW OW OWWWW!" Naruto yelled trying to pull away from Sasuke. "Dobe! Of course it will hurt if you don't relax! Just relax!" Sasuke yelled back glaring at Naruto. "Even if I relax-OUCH! Don't pull it so hard you muscle head!" Naruto said grabbing Sasuke's arm. "Muscle head!" Sasuke glared more.
Naruto put his hand on Sasuke's head and pushed him away. Finally both gave up and just sat there panting like they had run four miles. "Naruto, what are we gonna do about this ring?" Sasuke said grabbing Naruto's hand again and staring at the stubborn ring that refused to move. "Are you going to wear it to school?" he asked.
"I have to. It won't come off. But don't worry. I'll be really careful, so that no one finds out about our being married." Naruto said smiling and Sasuke sighed then noticed his 'wife' staring at his left hand so he looked at it and said, "What is it?" "Sasuke-san yours came off so easily. It shows how little you care for me." he said sulking. Sasuke stood up with his school bag. "Don't be so paranoid. Oh, and my name." Sasuke said giving Naruto a look. "Uchiha." said Naruto pouting. "And don't forget to wait a while before you leave. Got it, Uzumaki?" Sasuke said leaving.
Naruto sighed and flopped down to relax while he waited to leave. He looked at his school bag then said "Ah." realizing what he forgot.
Once Naruto got to school he stopped in the hallway to stare out the window. "Naruto!" said person turned his head to who called him and saw long brown hair and pale eyes. "Morning." the person said. "Oh. It's you, Neji." Naruto said smiling. "What's that supposed to mean?" Neji asked frowning. "Ah, nothing." Naruto said waiving his hands in front of him.
"Hey. What time have you been leaving your house lately?" Neji asked eyeing Naruto as he scratched behind his ear. A move he's seen him do when nervous before. "Umm..." Naruto tried. "What's that?" Neji asked with a surprised look. "Eh?" Naruto asked. "That ring." Neji said missing Naruto stiffen because he was to busy staring at the ring.
"Oh it's nothing." Naruto tried to say while looking away, he'd always been a bad liar. "Nothing? But it's on your left ring finger." Neji replied trying to grab the hand but Naruto surprised him by slapping his hand away and holding his left hand to his chest, hiding the ring. "Oh. Ah, ha ha. Sorry." Naruto tried to play it off by laughing and rubbing the back of his head. Neji didn't by it though "Naruto, are you-"
"Uzumaki." a voice interrupted. Naruto and Neji turned towards it, the former being surprised at who it was. "Good timing. I have to show the teacher my answers today in first period. Can I borrow your homework?" Sasuke finished walking up to them. Naruto blushed a bit and smiled. "Uchiha." he said and went over to him.
Neji watched Naruto go then turned his head to meet Sasuke's indifferent eyes with his suspicious one's and, after a minute, he glared. Sasuke just ignored it and led Naruto off to their class
After they got in class Sasuke took a seat in his desk and Naruto walked off to his messenger bag to get his notebook. "Who was that guy?" Sasuke asked resting his chin in his palm. "Eh? Oh, Neji?" Naruto asked back. "Neji. He's in class three, right? You know him?" Sasuke asked looking at Naruto. "My house is near his. He's like a childhood friend." Naruto replied going through his notebook then handing it to Sasuke. "Hmm. What's this?" Sasuke asked when he saw the notebook.
"Eh? Don't you need my homework?" Naruto asked confused. Sasuke looked away, glaring, and said, "I don't have to show it today." Naruto was quiet for a minute before he blushed and smiled. "Ohh. You helped me out." he said irking Sasuke. "Stop beaming." Sasuke growled flushing a bit and making Naruto laugh.
Neji walked into Naruto's classroom at lunch but when he didn't find him he decided to ask a group of three girls next to him. "Hey, you guys. Where's Naruto?" "Uzumaki-kun? Do you know?" a pink haired girl said turning to her blonde companion. "Nope." the blonde replied. " Oh! I think he left with Uchiha-kun just now." said a redhead with glasses.
Neji clenched his fist. "Has Uchiha, been hanging out with Naruto lately?" "I don't really know." replied the redhead looking thoughtful. "Oh by the way, did you see! Uzumaki-kun's ring!" said the rosette. "Yeah, yeah! I heard rumors that he's engaged to an older women." said the ever gossiping blonde. "For real!" asked the pink one. "Gyaaah! So raunchy~!" said the redhead. The conversation went on so Neji walked off.
"So what is it? Bringing me all the way over here." Sasuke said. He and Naruto were in a hallway away from the other classrooms, thus it was empty. Naruto reached into his bag and rummaged around a bit. "Yeah, here." he said pulling out a cloth wrapped obento. "Lunch?" Sasuke asked. "I forgot to give it to you this morning." Naruto replied. Sasuke went as wide-eyed as Uchiha's were allowed and grabbed the box.
"You made this!" he exclaimed. Naruto pouted. "You don't have to act so surprised. I'm pretty good at cooking, you know. And I changed the layout inside so people won't be able to tell that my lunch has the same ingredients. Is that wifely enough for you?" Naruto asked while smiling.
"Hey, how come you can do domestic stuff? Is it a hobby?" Sasuke asked looking at the lunchbox. "Of course not! Before I could be selected as a bridal candidate in the Uchiha clan, I had to satisfy all kinds of requirements. Like different ways of speaking, manners, and the ability to do housework. I... once I knew about them, I went about learning them all in secret. I wanted to be your wife no matter what, so..." Naruto trailed off, looking down and blushing.
"Since when?" Sasuke asked astonished. "When your sister-in-law got pregnant." Naruto replied. "Eh! You mean, before they new if it was a girl or boy!" Sasuke demanded. "Yeah." Naruto replied as if that was nothing. Sasuke flushed lightly then deflated leaning against the wall. "I can't believe you." he mumbled and Naruto laughed lightly.
"Right? Ahh, I guess I shouldn't have said anything about it after all. It's kind of embarrassing." he said rubbing the back of his head. "No, I'm glad you told me." Sasuke said turning to Naruto and cupping his cheek. Naruto looked at Sasuke and asked, "Sasuke-san? Wh-" "What's going on?" surprised Naruto turned around to face the newcomer.
"Neji..." he said and Neji glared at the two. "What is this? Why are you calling him 'Sasuke-san'? Don't you two think your acting weird?" Neji asked and got mad when Naruto didn't answer so he grabbed Naruto's arms and shook him causing Sasuke to get pissed but Neji ignored him. "Hey! Answer me, Naruto! Don't tell me, it has something to do with that ring!" Neji demanded.
"No, that's not it! Anyway, just calm down, Neji." Naruto tried but Neji wasn't listening. "Whatever. I want an explanation! You've never kept a secret from me before!" Neji yelled getting in Naruto's face and quite honestly scaring him a bit when he was was suddenly pulled away and to Sasuke. "That's enough cut it out." Sasuke said glaring. "Uchiha..." Naruto said.
Neji had a death glare on his face and said, "It's none of your business, bastard. Stay out of it." Sasuke reached into his pocket. "I think not." he pulled his hand out and showed Neji his matching ring on his finger then continued, "He's mine. It's none of your business." and Naruto blushed and stared at Sasuke as he pulled him down the hallway, away from Neji.
Naruto and Sasuke were walking over a bridge on their way home, when Naruto suddenly stopped. "Idiot. You're such an idiot. I can't believe you told him just like that. Tomorrow, the rumors might be flying." Naruto said looking down. "Maybe." Sasuke replied indifferently before turning to Naruto with a scowl on his face. "But he pissed me off. He touches you a lot, and calls you 'Naruto'. What's so great about a childhood friend anyway?" Sasuke said.
Naruto blushed and stared wide-eyed at Sasuke. He tried to talk but was cut off when Sasuke pulled him into a hug. "Sasuke-san..." Naruto couldn't think of anything to say so he settled on repeating Sasuke's name over and over while hugging him back when suddenly Sasuke pushed Naruto away, surprising him, then grabbing his wrist and dragging him down the road.
"We're going home." Sasuke stated. "Eh? Wh-why, all of a sudden? Sasuke-san!" Naruto asked majorly confused. "I want to get home quick! I want to get home quick and... cuddle with you properly." Sasuke said completely serious causing Naruto to put his hand over his mouth to hide his laugh, nod his head and smile.
