Luckily, he guessed right for Sasuke opened the window sleepily. Not paying any attention, Naruto accidentally threw a pebble at Sasuke's head.
"Ow! What the hell was that for?" Sasuke hissed.
"Oh... sorry!" Naruto whispered loudly .
"Naruto? What are you doing here?"
Naruto smiled. "I have my reasons, you gonna let me in? It's freezing out here!"
"Um, yeah. Meet me at the front door."
" 'K." Naruto ran to the front door excitedly. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and the door opened. Naruto walked in and Sasuke led him into the kitchen. The floors were littered papers and books of all kinds. When they got to the kitchen, the sink was filled with dirty dishes and the table was covered with flour and other baking ingredients.
"Sorry for the mess. It's usually cleaner," he said looking a little embarrassed.
"That's ok. I've got something to tell you anyway," said Naruto.
"Really? What?" asked Sasuke, his face lighting up.
"Well, I really don't know how to tell you. But I know what I want to say, well not really. I mean. . . it's just that I . . .um. . . I-I-I-"
"You what?" asked Sasuke, getting close to Naruto.
"I-I-I uh, um. I can't tell you!" Naruto crumpled into a crying heap in front of Sasuke's feet. "God, I'm stupid! Why does something so simple to say has to be so hard?" he said between sobs. Sasuke knelt down in front of him and tilted Naruto's head up. It was hard to do because Naruto kept forcing it back down, but when he finally succeeded, Naruto wouldn't look at him.
"Hey, look at me," said Sasuke soothingly, "you know you can tell me anything." Naruto sniffed and smiled. Sasuke wiped the last of the tears off Naruto's face and gave him a sympathetic hug.
"I love you," Naruto whispered in his ear. Sasuke held him at arm's length.
"Really?" Naruto nodded. They both smiled. Sasuke gave him a loving kiss. The arm Naruto was leaning on gave out. Naruto had passed out on Sasuke's shoulder.
"Naruto?" Naruto responded with a small, quiet snore. "He must've been tired. Oh well, might as well let him stay now that he's fallen asleep." He pick up the sleeping ninja and brought him to his room. There, he laid him down, took off Naruto's coat and shoes and got under the covers with him. That night was the first night Naruto slept peacefully in two weeks and that night was the first night they both didn't sleep alone.
Naruto didn't wake up until noon the next day and when he did, he got a big shock. He sat up in the bed and looked around.
This isn't my room, there's way too much stuff in here. Here the hell am I?, he thought. Suddenly, the door opened and Sasuke came in. Naruto jumped.
"Sasuke?"
"What?" He sat down next to him on the bed.
"Wh-where am I? What am I doing here?"
Sasuke frowned. "You mean you don't remember?"
"Remember what? What happened?" He was getting worried.
"Well, for one, you're at my house. You came over late last night and threw rocks at my window, and my head, anyway, when I let you in, you told me you needed to tell me something but had a nervous break down instead. Then you told me you loved me. Then you passed out so I let you sleep here."
"Did we do anything after that?" asked, afraid to even ask the question for he only remembered falling asleep last night.
"No. Of corse not! We're not even going out," said Sasuke quickly, feeling a little offended that Naruto would think he would do such a thing. "So what did you want to tell me?"
"Well, I've figured out everything and I think I have come to a conclusion."
Sasuke was getting excited. "And?" Naruto leaned over and kissed Sasuke. His breath tasted minty, giving Naruto the hint that he had just gotten up too. Sasuke leaned back and rested his head on the pillow. Naruto pulled back and Sasuke's lips quivered, wanting more.
"I'm ready," he whispered. A sudden rush of gladness came over Sasuke.
"Really?" he whispered back, his eyes gleaming. Naruto smiled and nodded.
From that moment on, everything changed for the two ninjas. They never wanted to separated from each other for any period of time. Sasuke was practically living with Naruto now and was running out of things faster than before and finally had to go to the store and, of corse, Sasuke had to go with him. When they got there, Sasuke stopped.
"Here, I'll go get the stuff. I know what you need and maybe we can have something other than ramen. How does that sound?"
Naruto blushed. "Yeah, ok."
Sasuke kissed him. "Just stay here. I'll be right back."
" 'K." Then Sasuke went into the store and Naruto just stood there, waiting. Out of nowhere, Sakura came over to Naruto and slaps him across the face.
