better late than never...

DISCLAIMER: if i owned Naruto, it would have been sasunarusai in team 7.


Sasuke could not help but laugh gleefully to celebrate his definite victory. Even though all the maids in their mansion have been given him very worried (more like 'frightful') stares all morning, he still could not stop laughing. (I can imagine Sasuke go all 'MWAHAHAHA!' with one of his eyes twitching every now and then… creepy but funny)

But what is it exactly that this psycho-maniac prince is celebrating? Well my friends, this is Sasuke's special day.

This day is especially made to go with whatever Sasuke wants and intends. It's all written in the stars and his palm. Well, at least, that's what all the fortune tellers he consulted for the whole week had said. They would not dare lie to him now, would they? Anyways, his very fortunate day is also being assured by today's horoscope. Yes, indeed… this day is Sasuke's day. The day he would formally make Naruto his and finally get rid of that Sai.


Naruto doesn't know why, but since he woke up this morning, he has been feeling a little… panicky. It's as if something really, really big is about to happen in his life. He shared all of this to Sasuke while on their way to school. Sasuke always fetches Naruto to and from school since he has a very nice car.

"Well, whatever it is… I just hope that it's not something for the worst. Hmm… but then again, what could be worst than the things happening in my life now, ne? I should have absolutely nothing to worry about!"Naruto said.

Sasuke did not say anything. He just gave a quick look at his blonde and smirked ever so slyly.

Naruto was changing shoes when he felt a familiar chill go up his spine. And as if on cue, Sai hugged him from behind and gave a peck on his right cheek. Sasuke growled, but of course, this did not deter Sai. Naruto couldn't stop the deep sigh emanating from his lips. This has somewhat become a morning ritual for him. Sai would always come from nowhere and 'attack' him. Sasuke would always try and scare him off, but alas, it never works.

On their way to the classroom, Sai hung his right arm around Naruto's shoulder which of course, Sasuke roughly shoved off. "Sunshine, let's have some tea and cake after school. There's this newly opened coffee shop near the academy, it'd be of course my treat. You can order and eat whatever you like, including me." Sai eyed Naruto seductively, and Naruto blushed a very pretty pink. "P-pervert! I am SO not going with you!" this exceptionally sweet rejection of Sai's offer, of course, caused Sasuke to do a mental happy dance. (kinda like dora the explorer's 'we did it' dance)


(classes are over)

"My lemon drop, are you all set for our small coffee shop date?" Naruto was taken aback with Sai's appearance. He's uniform was all dirty and he was kinda limping as he approached Naruto and Sasuke at the parking area. Naruto looked sincerely worried as he asked Sai what happened to him. Sai beamed at Naruto. "I'm so happy! You're worried about me… are you finally falling for me my sweet, little Naru-chan?" Sasuke snorted. "As you can see my carrot cake, I got caught up with some misfortunes." Sai shot a death glare towards Sasuke as he said this, which Sasuke generously returned to him with more intensity.

"Well," Naruto said meekly "a-as I have said earlier, I am not going with you. B-besides, you're hurt. You should just go home and rest."

"My kitten, even if I had my leg cut down, I would still go on a date with you" Sai cooed. "Saa, let's go?"

"T-that's absurd! I already said that I am not dating you…" Naruto is now blushing deep crimson. "And please, stop calling me with all those embarrassing girly… petnames!!! I am a very masculine boy for Kami's sake!"

For a while, both Sasuke and Sai looked at Naruto with one eyebrow gracefully raised. And in unision "What part of you is masculine?"

Imagine how deeply humiliated Naruto was that the two guys who seems to be ready to chew each other's heads out actually agreed about something… and it concerns the questioning of his masculinity.


Sasuke could not believe his luck. Well, actually, he is kinda expecting luck to be on his side since this is his day.

It's so nice that Sai went through all of the 'surprises' he especially planned for him. It's much nicer that Naruto was able to dismiss Sai all by himself. But the nicest of all is how Naruto did it. Oh yes! Its beautiful music to Sasuke's ears: "Sai, I'm already dating Sasuke… for a long time now actually. So, you and I will never ever happen."

So that is why now, he and Naruto are eating at Ichiraku's and Sasuke is so very happy that he ordered every type of ramen there is in the menu for Naruto.


Naruto was about to get off Sasuke's car when Sasuke's hand grabbed his wrist to stop him. "Naru-chan, what would you like to do for our date tomorrow?" Naruto stared at Sasuke questioningly. "Oh, is tomorrow inconvenient for you?"

Realization dawned on Naruto. "W-wait… d-don't tell me that y-you actually took the whole 'we are dating' thing seriously?! EHHHHH!!!!! SASUKE, Y-YOU L-L-LIKE ME?!?!"

"No, you moron." Sasuke replied flatly. Naruto blushed and scratched the back of his head cutely. "Oh… so you're just fooling around with me, eh?"

"I don't just like you… I LOVE you." Sasuke said casually.

"Stop that Sasuke, you'll give me a heart attach."

Both of them just stared at each other for about a minute or two.

Naruto was having a monologue going about on his head. 'Oh Kami-sama! Sasuke seems to be dead serious. I can't believe this; my best friend is gay… and is in love with me. Man, am I irresistible! But since when has he been in love with me?! We've been best friends since I can't remember... how did I miss it?! Wait, does this mean that all those hugs and holding of hands are not really friendly? What about the often slapping of my butt to kill the flies gathering there like it is some sort of sacred fly temple… was it just a lie?! Everything that Sasuke does to and for me… was it all with malice?!'

"Naruto, I don't really know if I am gay. You're the only person I have fallen in love with. I have loved you since we were in 1st grade… so yeah, you could say that everything we did together is not so innocent and friendly." Sasuke explained this to Naruto very casually. Naruto is getting more and more paranoid by the second… Sasuke can read what is going through his mind!

Before Naruto could freak out more, Sasuke explained that he just knows his Naru-chan so well that he can answer most of Naruto's questions without the blonde actually voicing them out. Naruto contemplated about the situation for a while. Then asked Sasuke, "So you're Naruto-sexual?" One of Sasuke's eyebrow raised in question. Naruto fidgeted nervously in his seat, "Well, you said that it's only me that you have loved ever since 1st grade."

Sasuke leaned towards Naruto and kissed him lovingly. After literally and figuratively taking Naruto's breath away, Sasuke just smirked his trademark smirk and said "My Naru-chan is a little cocky, ne?" Naruto blushed as red as a tomato. "Your Naru-chan?"

Sasuke captured Naruto's chin, and before giving the blonde another kiss, he possessively said "Yes. My Naru-chan. Mine… mine… mine."

'What have I gotten myself into?' was the last thought that went through Naruto's head before his brain, along with all his other systems, melted into Sasuke's kiss.
