A/n: Sowie :`(. But the good thing is that my exams are now over so I'll be updating faster than ever.

Disclaimer: And no, I still don't own Naruto.

The Gods Were Great Kissers

"What?"

My eyes refocused once more. Itachi stared confused at me from his chair around the table, while Naruto just arched his brow at me.

"Yes?" he asked again. Apparently I was staring.

"Nunhuh." I mumbled some incoherent crap as I wildly shook my head and suddenly found great interest in the plate before me.

"You guys better hurry and eat so that we can get to school on time." Itachi said as he folded his newspaper and stood. "And you better fix this." He hovered his hands over the table between us. "Uh, whatever this is. " He said frustratingly as he ran his fingers through his hair and walked out.

It's been days since that kiss at school, just days; my mind and thoughts have been completely muddled since the incident and I've been unable to put an actual date and time to when it occurred.

Since then, it has gotten a little strange between Naruto and me. Strange,not that we still share room, not that he still sleeps in my bed, and strips in the open, nope, that's not strange at all. What I find weird though is that I find myself constantly staring at him. I'm always staring at him, when he slept, ate, strip, whenever. Of course, it was while he wasn't looking, but I'm pretty sure he caught me in the act once or twice.

But it worries me though, because even though I continue to stare at this kid, I didn't seem to have a problem with it and I'm pretty sure that I should because staring down on a hot, if i do say so myself, blond guy, when you yourself was a guy, had got to be unhealthy.

Since the kiss, we hadn't really talked much. It wasn't a malice, it just got a little awkward for me because, really, I've never kissed anyone before and to get my first kiss from this boy, that I didn't really know, that recently became family, it kind of shocked me, really.

It just made me completely confused and unsure of myself. I've never thought that I've ever questioned myself more than I have during these pass days. I mean, how could one simple kiss have such a great effect on me? So, I've drawn the conclusion that something was definitely wrong.

"Tsh." I pushed the chair back as I dragged myself from my thoughts.

I was the last one to get into the car and as I sat down , my shoulder brushed against Naruto's for just a second and shivers went through my body and my entire being was covered in goosebumps and I looked up at him and one glimpse of his eyes got me lost and stuck in my tracks and the thoughts gone from my mind and the words gone from my lips. He smiled at me and I felt all weak inside. I completely lost myself in that moment, then I straightened up and quickly turn to face the window, trying desperately to hide the blush that found itself on my face. And I swear to whichever god that was doing this to me, that I'd definitely get back at him.

And I thought to myself, that this was just a phase I was going through. Surely everyone who had someone new added to their family was experiencing the same thing...Right?


"Sasuke! Sasuke!" I looked to Neji who had resorted to waving his hands across my face. It has been the third time now that he has had to call me from my thoughts.

"You've got that look again." he whispered, still looking down at his book as if reading.

"What look?" I asked as I copied Neji's tactic of pretending to pay attention.

"You know," he said lowly. "That look you get when you like someone."

"Hn."

Of course he would know that look. Believe it or not, there was once a time in my life when I was normal and I actually liked someone and that person was no doubt, Neji Hyuuga. Yeah, you heard it right, Neji. After my revelation, I told Itachi and that was the first time I ever shared my bed, with Itachi, when he sat down and explained to me that the feeling would pass and I was just falling for Neji because he was my first friend after mom died and since he was really kind.

But of course, Neji didn't take fancy to my feelings either. After a not-so-gentle slap to the face and after he frankly told me off, I was proud to say that my strong feelings disappeared as fast as they had come. And that's how we became best friends. Funny how that works uh?

Really, that slap opened my eyes, literally. I realized that Neji was a cool guy and he would make a better friend than anything else. Anyway, after that hard blow from Neji, I've never really liked another sole and neither was I aware that I had a look when doing so.

"I have a look now?"

That's when he looked up from his pretend read. "Sad to say, but you always did."

"Hn."

"Well, who's your victim now?" he asked curiously, more curious than I'd ever seen him in a long while. Victim? I felt a familiar pain in my cheek bone (you know, where he had punched me so long ago) I can't believe after what he did to me, he had the audacity to think that he was the victim of my feelings.

"Well?" he asked again.

My eyes drifted to the head of a blond. I didn't say a thing, because I myself didn't quite understand this feeling, but I knew that Neji saw, because his eyes tend to see the little things that others tend to over look. I know he saw and I prayed to whichever god that was watching over me, that he would understand.


So we were all sitting around the lunch table when Naruto came with a pink envelope in his hand.

I glared dangerously at the pink envelope, knowing too well what it entailed.

"Oh, Naruto got a love letter." Tenten awed as he sat. "Who's it from?"

"Umm, well." he scratched the back of his head, his face only slightly discolored. "I haven't read it yet."

"Well what are you waiting on?" She urged him.

Shikamaru also looked at it with disgust. "Uh, those annoying love letters." he mumbled lazily.

"Annoying!" Ino exclaimed. "A girl pours out her heart to you and all you can say is that it's just an annoying love letter!"

He looked at her indifferently. "Yeah."

"Shika, you disgust me and a...you know what, why am I even explaining this to someone as shallow as you. You don't even have enough heart to even care for yourself."

"Hn."

"Well I have to agree with Ino." Lee announced. " The Spring Time of our Youth is upon us. It's a time full of peace, joy and unending love. We cannot afford to let it pass us by, So if someone wants to pour out his heart on someone else, I say let him be!" he ended with a shout.

I mentally grunted. How can he manage to walk around spewing such crap and not get his ass handed to him? Amazing.

"Well, the only reason you're able to say such things is because you haven't actually received one." Gaara informed him.

"Well don't you worry about that,Gaara dear."

Gaara grunted at the name Lee chose to call him.

"There is someone out there for everyone, including myself. Someone will definitely fall for my charms." he smiled broadly. I rolled my eyes. What charms?

"Yeah, when that happens I'll put a gun to my head." Gaara said plainly.

"Oh no Gaara!" Lee gasped. "You know that I'm strictly against one taking his own life."

"Get over yourself Lee. I didn't say that I'd shoot." Gaara ended as he shook his head like 'duh'.

"Right." Sakura rolled her eyes. "Keep telling yourself that Lee."

"No,you mean he should stop telling himself that and maybe he would cease from saying such crap." Kiba added.

"Maybe." Lee mumbled as he pretended to be hurt.

They laughed.

I shook my head in wonder at the direction that the conversation had turned as I eyed Naruto while he read the letter.

"So, what does it say?" The girls, all , but Hinata asked. She didn't seem as eager for the details and if I knew my anatomy right, I'm sure that no one's face is ever to reach that shade of red she was now flaunting. I was sure she was about pass out. "Who's it from?"

He looked up and his eyes rested on Hinata for just a sec before he was answering the others."It's a love letter alright." She nearly died, but I'm sure no one else other than myself and Neji noticed it. "But there isn't any name attached to it." He scratched his head.

"Wooh, a secret admirer." Ino sang. "So cute."

" Way to go Naruto, you haven't even been here for two weeks full and already you have people dying for your love."

"Well, yeah, you know." he scratched his head again.

Already I've figured out that, his scratching of his head was his give away. He was lying.

"Well it's a shame you can't meet her." I heard Neji from my right joining in the convo. I'm positive he was being sarcastic.

"Not really." he said, without scratching his head. "I already like someone."

I tried not to react, and it proved to be of much difficulty. And it really shouldn't, since I shouldn't care who this kid liked. A kiss didn't mean anything. And I shouldn't like him. I could already hear Itachi telling me that I was misunderstanding my feelings . I mean, sure his lips were soft and nice and sure that kiss made my knees weak, but I'm sure there were may others with lips that could do that. There was nothing special about him, god or no god. I didn't react, because, it's not as if he was talking about me.

"You don't say." Neji added as he looked at me."Who is it?"

"I won't say."

"Pretty?" Kiba asked. He nodded.

"The only problem is that I'm not sure if the feeling is returned." Naruto sighed. I tried not to react but I couldn't help the heat that rose to my cheeks.

" Oh, It's complicated.?" Kiba asked and I thought that he couldn't have used a better word.

Naruto smirked. "I guess you could say so, but trust me, I'll be fine."

Another thing happened after that kiss, my number of female fans increased drastically. I wasn't even aware of the amount of girls that attended this school. They didn't attack me anymore though, even Naruto seem to have gained a few of his own.

Well, when he said he was going to stop it, he most certainly did, which further increased my belief that he was some sort of powerful creature, because only a god could stop girls from throwing themselves at me,Sasuke Uchiha.

" Well you guys still hadn't told us what cause the commotion in the hallway last week." Kiba mentioned and immediately I was a 100% focused.

"Yeah, what happened guys?" Neji mocked annoyed, as he shoved me in the side, still upset that I hadn't tell him from the beginning.

"Nothing really." Naruto responded, saving me from answering.

"Nothing." Sai eyed us especially me. "That's not what the rumors are saying."

Everyone looked to the black headed freak. Sai remained quiet, a small creepy smile appearing on his lips.

"What are they saying Sai." Shikamaru asked, not curious, but as if bored with the suspense.

My eyes idled on Naruto for a while, trying to find any kind of reaction, which he did not give by the way. They were curious, but I for one was not ready to hear these so called 'rumors', which by the way, had a fat chance of being 99.9% truth.

"Well." Sai began as he leaned forward, resting his pale hands on the table. "From what I've heard, apparently, Sasuke and Naruto were making out in the corridor."

Silence.

Ok. I changed my mind, it's only 97% accurate. We weren't making out, I wasn't even kissing back for Pete's sake. I was simply pushed against a locker and had my lips attacked and molested. You must be sick if you call that making out.

Kiba cleared his throat awkwardly and Neji eyes could bore a hole in my face. His eyes were not saying that he thought it was true, but neither were they doubting the possibility.

"Rumors! That's what they are, just disgusting rumors!" Sakura shouted as she stood next to Naruto.

"Yeah, Sasuke would never."

"Is that true ?" Sai asked me. I narrowed my eyes at him. He never liked me. Don't ask me about our friendship, for not even I know. "Tell us Sasuke." he challenged.

The focus was now on me.

"No, it's not true. We didn't make out." I answered truthfully, for in fact we didn't.

"So are you implying that something else happened." I didn't answer. He turned to Naruto. " What about you blondy, what happened?"

"Well..." he started and I prayed that he was as smart as the gods in the books. "It might have happened...Somewhat."

All eyes widened. Somewhat? Neji nudged me in the side and I would have face palmed myself, if it wasn't for the fact that everyone was watching me.

My eyes widened too. Somewhat? Why the hell did he say that?

Naruto gave no further explanation and another sweep of silence engulfed the lunch group.

"Interesting." Sai smiled. "Very interesting indeed."

"So...ummm, how's the weather kids?"Kiba asked to clear the tension, break the silence and part the awkwardness in two.

A nervous chuckle, followed and a blooming conversation began and it was as if they didn't just hear that Naruto and I might have been doing something intimate, which we shouldn't be doing, since we were, you know. Even though it shouldn't matter since he was supposedly helping.

I looked to Naruto who was also engaged in the chatter and I almost thought they had forgotten. But I realized that it was foolish of me to even start to believe that.


"Ummm, are you two ...okay?" Itachi asked as he exchanged looks between Naruto and me. Dinner was over, but I wasn't too sure if I wanted to be alone in my room with Naruto. I don't think I could trust myself alone with him or be held responsible for my actions either.

"Dinner has been over for awhile now..." He looked between us once more. I stared at Naruto and he looked back at me. " You guys should really think about going to bed soon."

I got up first, only because of the confused look on Itachi's face. I really couldn't bear to see him like that. Naruto followed close behind me as we headed up the staircase. I was the first to get into the room and I almost turned to lock the door, but I concluded that that would be very childish of me, so I left it open.

"So..." he said as he closed the door behind him and leaned against it.

"So...what?" I questioned.

"You're just gonna stay silent about it?"

"What's there to talk about?" I asked. "You only did it to get rid of those girls right. Mission accomplished."

"Yeah...but." He looked down.

"But what?" I raised my voice, for all this silence about the kiss was actually making me very frustrated. "There's not much here to talk about."

"So you don't care that you lied to your friends?" He asked from the door.

"I didn't lie." I said defensively. "We were NOT making out!"

He laughed. "Well that's not what rumors are saying."

"Listen to me." I warned as I walked around the room searching for something that I've yet to know that I have lost. "I didn't ask for anything of you okay, and neither do I want anything."

"You don't?"

" I don't." I looked up as he pushed himself off the door.

"Hn." he smiled and again I was unsure about myself.

"Well just to let you know." He said playing with his hair. " I've caught you staring at me on many occasions. I can't possibly be that gorgeous. Can I?" He ended with a smirk. "You sure you don't want something?" he asked again.

The suggestive nature of his question scared me; I took a timid step back.

"Naruto...really, I don't." I mumbled retreating even further from the approaching blond.

"You didn't like it Sasuke?" he asked as he stood before me.

"Naruto...no...I" I tried to take another step back and my voice broke as my back hit the wall. Why on earth did places seem to get smaller when you're trying to escape?

"Wanna like it?" he asked as he practically leaned in on me. I subconsciously licked my lips as I looked to his and the words left my lips.

"My eyes are up here." he said as he lifted my chin so that I was looking directly into his eyes. His eyes were so blue and I swore that they held some kind of controlling power in them, which could be the only plausible reason as to why I was still standing here.

"If my memory serves me right, you weren't kissing back last time, were you?" He asked innocently as he spoke by my ear.

"No..." I barely managed to say as my breathing became uneven.

"You wanna try this time? he asked and without waiting for a response he placed his lips on mine for the second time.

And his lips on mine felt right. And the breath built up in my chest and my legs felt weak and those butterflies fluttered around in my stomach again. And I loved it, and hated it. And I hated myself for loving it so much because I knew I wasn't like this and if it was any time three weeks ago I would have hated this. And I swore the gods must have replaced me with an alien. And though I wasn't so sure what a good kiss was suppose to feel like, I was pretty sure that this was one. He kissed me...and by god , did I kiss back. For who was I to resist such welcoming temptation, he was a god and gosh...

The gods were such great kissers.


A/n: Well there it is. I'm not too sure if I like this chap, but I promise the next will be better.

Flame, review, whatever you do, do.
