Best Apart

Chapter Four: A New Room

A/N: It's a short chapter again…But the next will be longer!

Last week of August…

"Ah! Hurry up Kyu! I think my room is around here somewhere!" Naruto yelled as she ran up the stairs and slightly annoyed her sister is going so slow. The red head huffing as she tried to balance the box she was holding with one arm and other a heavy bag. "You are not very helpful Naruto." Kyu mumbled tiredly and climbed the stairs after her younger sibling.

"Come on! I think it's this way!" Naruto shouted and in excitement ran down the hall. Annoyed, Kyu sighed and made her way after the short blonde. "Wait up you hairy smelly beast!" She shouted from behind.

"Here!" Was all Kyu got in response. Walking down the hall she saw her little sister pointing to a dorm with name tags of 'Naruto' and 'Junko' written on them. "Well open it." Kyu said, she seriously wanted to put down the box and bag down to let her arms rest.

Nodding Naruto took out a key and opened the door, once opened they looked around. It was small…two beds across each other, closets close to the wall, and desk that went from one wall to the other. Sort of a dull room really, except for that one side of the room had stuff from the other person's stuff. Kyu didn't think it was a very pretty room but she won't comment on it considering it isn't her that's living there. After a long silence from the blonde, Kyu turned her attention to her. Blue eyes wide and mouth open, Naruto took in the room before grinning widely. "It's great!" She said brightly and took the box Kyu was holding to unpack.

Well that was unexpected….Kyu thought and dropped the bag she was holding to help unpack. After an hour of unpacking Naruto's personal stuff and making the room a little cheery, Kyu decided to treat Naruto out for their last meal together.

"You know what?" Naruto asked suddenly while munching down a piece of hamburger.

Looking up Kyu asked. "What?"

"Sasuke is living in the same dorm as me!" She grinned and took a sip of her soda.

Kyu was slightly taken back but decided not to comment. She heard a lot about this person named Sasuke. And Naruto talked about him a lot over the summer. Things like what type of odd music that this Sasuke has been showing Naruto and weird humorous jokes. Not that she was against their friendship or anything…she was just curious.

As they went back to Naruto's dorm, Kyu gave her sister instructions as how to work the microwave. As strange as that might sound…but the girl needed to be educated on how to make Ramen. Saying her goodbye, Kyu smiled sadly and gave her sister one last hug before leaving for home.

"Dude this place smells funny."

"It's a dorm. Dorms are suppose to smell funny." Sasuke said to his brother as he opened his room door and gently put down his beloved coffee pot that will keep him alive during school on the bed.

Their mother soon came following in after them and gasped as she took a look around the small room. "It looks painful." She said looking at her son.

Staring back blankly Sasuke asked. "What's so painful about it?" He was okay with the room. It was just the same as his last dorm.

His mother on the other hand had other opinions. "It's so small and dull. And the beds are too close together!" She said pointing to the two beds which had barely enough room to pass through it to get to the desks. Sasuke shrugged, not at all bothered by the room.

"You are getting an apartment next year mister." His mother said boldly and went out the door leaving Sasuke and his brother looking at each other oddly.

"I guess she doesn't approve." Sasuke said and put his bag on the bed. His brother shrugged and looked at the door with the name tags on it.

"Well it looks as if your roommate is…Chinese?"

Walking over to the door to see the name tag, Sasuke chuckled. "I guess."

"This year should be interesting." His brother laughed.

"I would think so." Sasuke said. Setting up his coffee maker and making a cup of coffee has been on his mind since they left home. So now is a good time to do just that before unpacking. Beside he didn't bring much.
