Disclaimer: I own nothing, not even a crumb that's too small for a mouse.

Yes I know this chapter is really small but we had career day when I wrote it and most of it was outside and we weren't allowed to take anything outside. Also I'm trying to make it so I can write one chapter a day..

_Note_ Sorry if this is so late. I completely forgot about uploading it. It seems I'm not being reminded enough, no enough people sending reviews or something. However thank all who added this story to favorites or story alert.

___________Chapter 4___________

"This place is a mess."

"Thirty-seven." Naruto muttered under his breath. That was the number of times Sasuke had complained about Naruto's apartment.

Naruto and Sasuke had been back in the apartment for only an hour and already he was getting on Naruto's very last nerves. As soon as he had walked in, he took one look around and started complaining about everything. How small it was, how undecorated, and even how Naruto shouldn't have a calendar with girls in swimsuits on his wall. To tell the truth, Kiba was the one who gave it to him and he only used it for the date.

The worst and majority of Sasuke's complaints were from the mess.

It was however, tremendously funny to see Sasuke brushing around Naruto's apartment and cleaning it. It was only too easy to imagine Sasuke in a maid's costume with his foot in the air, dusting the window seal. Naruto's sides hurt as laughter built up in his gut and traveled up his ribcage to finally bellow out his mouth in a deep vibrating laugh. A few seconds later he was on the ground rolling and laughing his ass off.

Sasuke, realizing that Naruto was laughing at him, suddenly felt red and anger swelled up inside of him as Naruto's laughter had. He was laughing at him! Not to mention that he wasn't helping Sasuke clean the mess. He put his hands on his hips to yell at Naruto, but only succeeded in completing Naruto's mental image of maid Sasuke. Counting to ten, eyebrow twitching as Naruto laughed even more, he calmed himself.

"What's so funny, Naruto?!" He said taking slow breaths to take every word carefully and adding venom to the emphasis on Naruto's name. Naruto calmed himself enough to sit up and wipe a tear from his closed eyes, still laughing here and there.

"You and your girly habits, Mrs. Uchiha." Naruto grinned a closed mouth smile, muffling some laughter that otherwise was bound to come out.

Sasuke's eyes widened slightly. He took his hands from his hips, realizing that he'd made it worse by doing that. Boys didn't do that and men especially didn't do that. Being called Mrs. Uchiha really made him feel insulted.

"Girly habits?" Sasuke asked through clenched teeth, eyes closed to hide the furry now growing in them.

Naruto grabbed hold of his stomach, still grinning, and nodded very quickly. He knew he found the weirdest things funny, but this was Naruto after all. The creative genius who invented the sexy jutsu. The mastermind behind so many great pranks and such great improvises such as throwing shadow clones at the enemy and charging blindly into a fight. Oh yeah! He had imagination alright! After all, Sasuke was really girly.

Sasuke smirked and folded his arms across his chest.

"So you're saying that I'm the feminine one?"

Naruto just grinned and nodded, eyes screwed shut resembling upside 'u's , tears still forming at the corners of his eyes.

"Then I hate to inform you, but at least I don't look feminine. " Naruto stopped laughing eyes widening.

"Nuh uh. I don't look feminine! Take that back, Mrs. Uchiha!" Sasuke raised an eyebrow.

"You only deny it because you know it's true. Blonde hair, emotional blue eyes, and your figure is so feminine that I bet you make Ino jealous. You could probably do your harem jutsu without any chakra if you had any breasts. Not even getting to how you act. How you always make everything so emotional and cry or stick to your friendship speech, like friendship really matters. You want to call me girly?" Naruto was mad now. How dare he! Cocky bastard! Naruto was about to respond when Sasuke added, "Friends are weakness and weakness is unwanted and unimportant. I'd rather do without either."

An unwanted and awkward silence filled the home as all the laughter died down. The boys stared at each other for a moment, both upset all of the sudden as if they could see into each others soul and didn't like what he saw. Saw their souls through the windows to the souls. The eyes.

"Sasuke?"

It was the middle of the night before either of them spoke. Naruto had silently pulled out a mat ,if it could even be called that since it was so small, on to the newly cleaned floor for Sasuke to sleep in. Neither of them were asleep , otherwise there wouldn't be such a thick tension, even if Naruto didn't realize it.

No answer.

"Do you really feel that way?" Once again, a painful silence was the only response he could get from the male on the floor. "Was our friendship so meaningless to you that it didn't matter to you at all? Are we friends?! Were we even ever friends?! Answer me!" After a few minutes, Naruto gave up hope that Sasuke would answer. "Damn it! "

Soon, Naruto turned to the opposite side facing away from Sasuke. Anger subsiding with hurt, Naruto murmured under his breath trying to make sure Sasuke wouldn't hear him, though he was surely convinced that he was asleep.

"You were my first friend. When we fought Haku, he told me something. He said true strength came when we were fighting for our most precious person. You were mine"

His breathing steadied as he fell asleep angry. Sasuke waited until he was absolutely positive Naruto was asleep, he answered:

"I'm sorry Naruto. You were mine too…And you still are…"

We made progress in this chapter! Yay! BtB (by the by) Sasuke might say sorry… after no ones listening. We never know cause were not listening! =P

Preview:

Naruto had been wrong before so this wasn't a first, but this was very surprising. Somehow it seemed to be odd for Naruto to be wrong. In this case at least.
