So You're In Love With Your Best Friend?
Chapter Three--Block the Fire Escape
Sasuke's POV

o-o-o

Uchiha Sasuke requires nothing to survive, no one to help him, and doesn't succumb to any usual need. Like sex.

I've never really been too bothered about it...

Okay. So yeah, lie. It's only been forty eight hours and I'm crawling off the walls, the minutes ticking away like a clock is embroidered in my brain. And dragging Naruto in the bathroom wasn't my best idea, let me tell you. Once we got there he smirked and kicked me in the balls, shaking his ass right in front of my fucking face. That was low. He's staying at Sakura's... who he hates. He'll probably be crawling back in the next couple minutes...

Yeah, anytime now... any time.

Fucker.

I'm not going to give up, I'm an Uchiha. Uchiha don't have a single crack in their masks. Ask Itachi, that flaming homo. I'm glad I scared Naruto so that they will never meet.

Not because Itachi is dangerous... well, that's what I told Naruto... but Itachi is a little... how do I want to explain this, out there. Yeah, that's it. I live alone simply because of my embarrassment of him.

It all started when we were children...

-

"Aniki where's my - why are there... what are you doing playing with those?"

"Sa... SASUKE GET OUT!"

"Why are you wearing a dress and make up Aniki? Is that part - "

"Get out!"

"But Aniki..."

"I SAID GET OUT DAMN YOU!"

"ANIKI -"

-

That was all I could utter before he threw an eye brow pencil at me, resulting in a horrible accident that followed that will not be spoken of...

There it was. My first clue at such an innocent age that my brother was... "different".

When I was a little older, Itachi invited one of his "friends" over... needless to say, it didn't go very well.

-

"Hey Sasuke come meet Oro..."

"Oro? What the hell kind of name is that?"

"Well, his full name is Orochimaru."

"Why does he look like a child moles - er snake..."

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TO QUESTION EVERYTHING, JESUS!"

"Hi Sasuke... I've heard so much about you..."

"Quit touching me..."

Smack. "Ow! Aniki!"

"Oh... what am I going to do with you Sa - "

"Fuck him."

"What! Where did you find this guy Aniki?"

"...uhm, get in the car, Sasuke."

"NO."

"Saaasuke..."

"Ew. Ah get him off - "

-

I'd rather not remember the rest. But that was the first time I figured out that my brother was really, really weird. Not just clinically insane. And coincidentally, it was also the first time I realized that you could punch someone in the face and they would still enjoy it. Sick but true.

"Sasuke?"

I must have been glaring at Naruto too long who moved up a few seats to avoid me at the begining of class, that I didn't notice Neji (that weirdo) poking my side with a pencil. I feel the sticky substance on my shirt and clench my teeth. Is it me, or is everyone in this school mentally retarded? I'm going to have to say a yes to that.

"What?" I grit out, doing my best to be intimidating and menacing, which pretty much doesn't have an affect on Neji. He's like a brick wall everyone likes to fuck with. But the thing about messing with him, he'll get you back.

"I notice you don't sit with Naruto anymore... " he questions softly, eyeing me.

Hm.

"Yeah, so?"

He opens and closes his mouth a couple times, teeth clamping down on his bottom lip. "Well, are you two broken up- "

"We were never together Hyuuga! I'm," quieter, "not gay..."

Neji mutters something that could have been either, "could have proved me wrong", or "I really wanted that thong". I'm going to go out on a limb here, and choose the latter. Because I am definitely not flamboyant gay like some people.

Shooting another glance at Naruto, I swallow thickly. Gaara's greasy, sickly pale hand is hovering too close to the edge of his desk, like he wants to touch my prop - Naruto. He's glad he hasn't, because... wait - why am I acting like this? I'm Sasuke fucking Uchiha. Girls and boy's swoon alike for my sexy face and taunt body.

Ahh! I swear to god, Gaara just smiled at him. One of those 'I love you and I think you're special please look at me' smiles. ... Going to kill him, going to murder his whole family, going to shove their bodies under the floor board and then they'll learn that Uchiha's mean business.

All conversation, well, attempts there of, are ceased as the shrill bell resounds in my ears, making my eyebrows reach my hair line. Frowning, I whip out my ipod and hook up my head phones, flipping to something stand-able as I roam through the halls, alone. Without that idiot by my side to annoy me. The Cure is the first thing that plays, smashing into my brain. I wince but smile, our song playing... how fucking gay is that, which I am not.

Thank god schools over.

But now I've got to go home to a quiet house. Not that I mind, but... It always takes me back to the day he moved in with me. Funny how silence does that to you...

-

You're twelve years of age, he's just a little younger.

Smiling blue eyes and a sparking smile. All talk and no bite. You frown and glare at the shorter boy, mocking his happy facade, muttering a quick, "upstairs," before following him, and praying he doesn't stumble upon anything valuable.

His parents abandoned him, and that left you. The "best friend". Please. You barely knew him in elementary.

Definitely not happy in the first place, and having to accommodate some loser that (you've only been lusting after half a month) is supposedly your 'best/only' friend.

"OH MY GOD, IS THIS MY ROOM?"

Your ear drums shatter, a hand going up to your ear. Though, even though you're angry, the wonder in his voice twists at your heart, just a little.You squint your eyes at him, hoping he gets the message that you definitely DIDN'T appreciate that. "The fuck," you hiss, bearing your teeth to his smiling face..

He just grins like the dobe he is and shrugs, bouncing up and down on your bed, giggling slightly.

"This would be my room, there skippy."

He pouts, getting down to look around. Your eyes lock with his hands as they ghost across your desk, his face deep in concentration. He picks up a few cds, face blanching. "Ew."

You grit your teeth, walking over and ripping them from his hands. "Don't touch those, they'll get aids or something."

He shoots you a slightly devious look and slips your most prized possession, your From First To Last autographed, a la Sonny Moore, copy of Dear Diary down his pants. Shock, then overwhelming anger, as he dances around, sticking out his tongue at you and shaking his dick. Your hands reach out, and your body moves, but you trip and fall into him, knocking the wind out of both of you.

"Well," he groans, "at least I didn't crack your -"

The shrill crunch follows his sentence. You can hear every single snap of the cd case, and cock your jaw, glaring down at him. "You better fucking run!"

-

That memory pisses me off, more than consoles me. I think I beat his ass so hard he couldn't see straight, and limped to school. We've had plenty more arguments where that came from, anyway.

Pulling into the drive way, I sigh, and turn off the engine, just sitting here. My eyes fall shut, and I flip on the radio, biting my lip at the soft tune. I had long since abandoned my ipod.

Maybe I am... gay. Fuck, the word sticks in my throat, makes me sweat all over.

Everything is serene... quiet... peacefull...

Until something smacks against the window, causing a shiver to course through my body. I groan, and get out, picking up the little thing, only to find out it's a...

Condom?

Is someone up there punishing me, because I'M NOT HAVING A VERY FUN FUCKING TIME!

I look over, and see Naruto's neutral face. Was it him? It had to be. What the hell, I thought he was spending time at Sakura's?

He slinks over and takes my hand, bringing it to his cheek, leaning in close. I think my heart stops a beat when he whispers,

"Need you. Now."

and crushes our lips together.

I smirk, pocketing the condom and dragging him inside.

An Uchiha always wins.

o-o-o

TBC...

Sorry for the long wait, I kind of hit a brick wall with my writing. Or Neji. Haha.

And for those of you still caught up in the Sasuke OOCness. Picture this. His family isn't dead, but his brother is a freak. I think there would be a considerably different outlook on life, don't you? I mean, come on people.

Kthx. Tell me what you think!
