It was still dark when he woke up. Like always, he got up even before the first rays of sunlight appeared from the sky. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, his towel slung over his shoulder. He stripped himself of his clothes and got into the shower, hanging his towel on a plastic hook on the wall. He turned the shower knob and let cold water drench his body.
His bath was silent, except for the hiss of flowing water coming from the shower head. After thoroughly cleansing himself, he stepped out and dried himself with his towel. He wrapped another towel around the lower half of his body and continued drying his hair. After walking out of the bathroom, he approached his cabinet and pulled out a neatly folded black shirt and a pair of gray sweatpants. He set them on his bed while he continued drying his hair for a little while longer.
When he arrived downstairs fully dressed, there were already noises coming from the kitchen, telling him that his guardian was already awake. He went into the kitchen and verified his guess. Kakashi was already busying himself with cooking breakfast, which happened to be bacon and eggs.
He sat down lazily on a chair, throwing his large sports bag on another chair beside him.
"Morning, Sasuke. Early as always, huh?"
"Hn," was Sasuke's reply. The gray-haired man placed a plate of food in front of him and smiled. "Pretty early, actually. Soccer practice is not until 7, right? You've still got fifteen minutes."
"I wanted to wake up early. What's wrong with that?"
His guardian shrugged. "I'm just saying. It's obvious you're not in a good mood."
"You know the hell why."
"Naruto-kun still hasn't talked to you?"
Sasuke just frowned and stabbed his food mercilessly with his fork. He did not bother speaking any further to his professor and guardian. He managed to finish half of his food before he stood up, grabbed his bag and left for school.
Kakashi just sighed and took sasuke's plate, dumping the remaining contents into the trash can. "Such troublesome kids," he muttered in a cheerful tone.
He took his cellphone from his pocket and dialed a familiar number. He brought the phone to his ear and listened to the ringing coming form the other line. He smiled widely when the ringing stopped and a voice spoke from the other line.
"Ah, yes, it's me, Iruka-chan!!"

Soccer practice.
He really detested soccer practice. He had to spend almost four hours with people who were annoyingly sweet when it comes to him. Was it his fault that he was a genius at soccer (and academics, extra-curricular, and many more)?
His frown grew deeper. He suddenly remembered that most of his fangirls would probably be there later, waiting for a chance to confess their so-called "love" for him and then ask him out.
When will they ever learn that Sasuke would never like them? That he only had eyes for Naruto?
He stopped for a moment, his frown becoming less obvious.
Ah, yes, he had almost forgotten why he kept going to soccer practice in spite of all that.
"Uzumaki! Stop staring into space and get that ball!" An angry voice roared throughout the seemingly deserted Konoha High. Sasuke stopped just before the gate of the school and watched as a soccer ball bounced out of the grounds. A very exhausted Naruto followed soon after, panting very heavily and drenched with sweat. The blonde chased after the ball and finally caught it in his arms, tripping and falling onto his knees due to exhaustion.
"F-finally…I…"
Naruto looked up and turned to his side. He had not realized that he had strayed onto the road. He tried to get onto his feet, but he discovered that his legs were aching far too much for him to do so. "Oh shit…" His legs were shaking, and he could not even balance himself on his knees.
His blue eyes widened in shock when he heard the horn of a car. His heartbeat quickened. No…Oh god…He tried to stand up again. His feet refused to move. "Damn…" He could see the car coming. A bright red convertible racing toward him at such an incredible speed.
Naruto closed his eyes.
"What the fuck where you doing?!"
The blonde felt warm arms wrap around him, and the sound of the car, he realized, had disappeared. He opened his eyes, feeling hot tears trickle down his cheeks. He was…being carried by someone…
"Aah!!!! Let me go, Sasuke-teme!!!" He tried to squirm and kick his way out of the taller boy's grasp, but failed miserably. His legs were still unresponsive, and his thin arms barely put up a fight. Sasuke successfully fought his protests and easily carried the combined weight of a feisty Naruto and his sports bag. The smaller male's exhaustion finally weighed down on him and his wild movements ceased. His body fell limp and his head rested against Sasuke's chest. However, despite his weakness, he still held a hint of protest. "Lemme go…Sasu…teme…"
Sasuke ignored his words and continued walking into the grounds. He was met by horrified looks from the soccer team, some of whom were gaping and shaking. "Sa-Sasuke-buchou…"
"He almost got run over by a fucking car!!" Sasuke's angry voice made all the team members shiver. "Why is he this exhausted before we even started?!"
"Ah….well…we…kinda…"
"SIXTY LAPS!!!! NOW!!!"
A loud "Yes, sir!!" rang throughout the grounds and the soccer team immediately broke into a run around the soccer field.
After watching them for a few moments, Sasuke turned around and headed into the school building, straight into the clinic. Naruto did not voice out any more protests and stayed perfectly still on their way to the clinic, making Sasuke think that the earlier encounter had shaken him up more than what he had expected. The Uchiha felt a slight pang of worry and quickened his steps.
"Dobe? You still there?"
Naruto did not answer.
"Shit…" Sasuek broke into a run. A few minutes later, he finally reached the clinic. Balancing Naruto and his bag in one hand, he furiously slid the door open and barged into the room. "REITO!!"
He had expected to see Reito Arikupara, the freshman that stood as the school nurse's student assistant. Instead, he found himself facing a different girl; one with long brown hair, instead of the black-haired Reito.
"A-ah…S-Sasuke…Y-you're Sasuke!!"
Fuck. She was one of his fangirls.
He watched in annoyance as the girl gaped at him, her eyes sparkling in glee. "Oh my god…Wait until the others hear this!!"
Sasuke just walked past her and lay Naruot on a vacant bed. "He almost got run over. I think he got pretty stunned. Take care of him."
The girl threw a glance at Naruto's unconscious form and then looked at Sasuke. "Uh…Sure…"
They stared at each other for a few moments.
"Well? Aren't you going to MOVE?"
The girl nodded and walked up to Naruto's bed. As Sasuke watched her look at Naruto, he cannot help but get extremely irritated. She would not stop glancing at him, to the point that she was almost completely ignoring the unconscious boy.
"M-my name is Eiri…I-I've been a fan of you since I came in last year…I think you're really great, Sasuke, and—"
"Shut up and focus on Naruto." His brows furrowed. "Where is Reito, anyway?"
"Uh…Reito went out for a while…"
At that moment the door slid open and Reito walked in, yawning and looking very drowsy.
"Reito."
Said girl blinked and approached the raven-haired senior. "Hey. What's wrong?"
Sasuke threw a glance at the blonde on the bed. "He's very exhausted. AND he almost got run over by a car. Your friend here," he cocked his head toward the other girl in the room," is not helping at all."
Reito turned to the girl and raised an eyebrow. Eiri blushed a dark red and ran out of the room. Reito turned back to her unconscious patient and started examining him. "That girl went in here because she wanted me to give her something for her stupid acne. Girls like her are so troublesome…" She straightened up and turned to the senior. "There aren't any physical injuries aside from his scraped knees. I can't say any more than that. If you want, I can call someone better than me."
"Shizune's here?"
"You know very well she only works during the weekdays."
"Then who? You're the only student nurse I know."
Her eyes widened slightly. "You're telling me she didn't tell you. And I thought you two were such good friends."
"She would be?"
"Sakura. She's training to take up nursing in college, didn't you know? She's already very good."
Sasuke tensed up. "Is she here?"
"I think she is. So, would you like me to call her?"
There was no reply.
"Sempai? Should I?"
The Uchiha wanted to shout. It was frustrating that the girl had no idea about the grave dilemma concerning Naruto, Sakura and him. However, he could not blame her. After all, she did not bother concerning herself with other people's problems.
"If you want, I can ask Kawahi and Schatzi to fetch Shizune. Though, I think that would take them at least half an hour."
"No." Sasuke turned around and walked towards the door. "Call her. Call Sakura." With that said, he slid the door open and walked out. Reito could only stare in confusion. She reached inot her pocket and pulled out her cellphone. She dialed a certain number and brought the device up to her ear.
"Hello? Sakura? This is Reito. Would you mind going to the clinic? We've got a problem."
She had no idea how right she was.
