Hello everyone, how is everyone doing?
Aekidna: Thanks.
inuyasha16451: Thank you.
WCDragonS. : I will see how I can incorporate that. I will make it stem off a bet involving grades if anything.
Chidori95: Sasuke feels soft when it comes to Naruto because he knows that Naruto is a straight forward person with no ill will but he can't help get snappy when someone tells him what to do. But he knew he hurt Naruto's feelings so he knew that was going to be the only way to talk to Naruto again. Yeah when I rode the roller coasters at Six Flags for the first time I nearly shit myself and kept my eyes close the whole time.
Here's a new chapter enjoy.
Naruto had a rough week at school and it was all because Sasuke by no means would leave him alone. He couldn't get that damn dream out his head and wanted to cry because Sasuke wasn't helping him by no means by bothering him every day.
"Naruto, we're going to do the next challenge tomorrow?" Sasuke asked as Naruto got in his car.
"I guess what is it? I still can't believe you didn't skip at all." Naruto said buckling himself in.
Despite Naruto not wanting to be around Sasuke he was still in the car with him because he was supposed to spend the night. Why he decided that he would never know?
"You know I don't have to sleep over, right?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah but if I don't have you spend the night you will try to avoid me like you did all week long." Sasuke said smirking.
"I didn't avoid you, you wouldn't let me." Naruto said slipping up.
"So, you were trying to avoid me?" Sasuke asked smirking even more.
"No," Naruto said trying to hide his smile.
Sasuke was honestly shocked by Naruto's smiles and they made him more nervous to be around the blonde. He wouldn't tell the blonde that though and not only that but he didn't understand the feeling himself so how would he tell the blonde. All he knew was he didn't like the blonde trying avoid him.
"Liar," Sasuke said chuckling starting his car and driving off.
They didn't talk on the way to Sasuke's house. Naruto could honestly say he was nervous as hell to be alone with Sasuke he wasn't sure how it was going to go.
"You know you were avoiding me and I know you were avoiding me and that's why I bothered you even more." Sasuke said with a smirk.
"And you won't know the reason no matter what you do." Naruto said smirking.
"I don't care at least you admitted you were doing it. What do you want to do tonight? We can go hang out with Suigetsu and Jugo tonight." Sasuke asked.
"No Sai? Doing what?" Naruto asked.
"Sai has to work tonight and the rest of the weekend for that matter. I don't know yet it depends on what they would want to do. As a matter of fact I don't think Jugo is available. Would you like to play the game at my house? I know my mother told me she was making you dinner." Sasuke explained.
"I don't care what we do but maybe we should do our homework before playing any games." Naruto said.
"Really? You always do the right thing don't you?" Sasuke asked.
"It's not about doing the right thing. It's more about getting it out the way and not having to rush to do it later on. If I do it on the first day of the weekend I don't have to worry about it later." Naruto explained.
"Yeah, yeah Mr. Goody two shoes." Sasuke said as he went into his driveway.
They both got out the car when it was parked and walked in the house no one was in at the moment. It seemed Itachi decided he wanted to be out for the weekend by his own friend's house. His parents weren't coming home until around six when his mother was planning on cooking so Naruto and he were at the house alone and that left Naruto extremely uncomfortable because what he has been dreaming of lately. It got worse as the days went on.
"Come on, I will show you to my room." Sasuke said putting his keys into the jar that was by the door in the hallway.
Naruto wordlessly followed Sasuke down the hallway to a room that was across a dining room and kitchen area.
"Your room is downstairs?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah, I didn't want to be in the upstairs room. It's bigger down here anyways." Sasuke said shrugging his shoulders.
It honestly felt like there was more to that and Sasuke wasn't trying to say what he felt about it.
"You don't want to know why?" Sasuke asked as he opened his door setting his bag down on the floor.
"If you want to tell me I will listen but I don't make it a priority to get into other people's business." Naruto said.
"But isn't that what friends do with each other? Get into each other's business." Sasuke asked curiously.
"I wouldn't know, I never had a friend to say and I never really had business to tell." Naruto said partially lying.
"You said you had one friend before what happened with him?" Sasuke asked actually curious.
Naruto wasn't sure how he felt about talking about Gaara after what happened with them. It always made him feel bad no matter who he talked to.
"I don't really want to talk about it." Naruto said turning his head to look at the wall.
"Fine, you don't have to tell me. The reason I moved myself down here was to get away from my father since my room was next to there's and because it's easier to sneak out being down here on ground level." Sasuke said also not telling the full truth.
"Figures it would be something like sneaking out." Naruto muttered not believing the whole statement but thought it would be best to go along with it.
By the relief sound Sasuke gave him he was glad for that so he just left it alone. Naruto started to walk around the room and noticed there were a lot of shelves and wondered why.
"Why are there so many shelves in here?" Naruto asked looking back at Sasuke then glancing at some pictures on the shelves and books.
"Because this used to be the library my dad studied in." Sasuke answered.
"Why didn't he take the shelves down?" Naruto asked as he saw the twin size bed against the window.
"Because he thinks I am going to go back upstairs." Sasuke said yawning lying on his bed.
"Why don't you just tell him you want to be down here because you like it better?" Naruto asked.
"As you know Naruto my father and I aren't on talking terms for me to tell him that." Sasuke said sighing.
"Well..." Naruto didn't even bother to finish just shrugged his shoulders and walked back to the desk area so he could see what was all on it.
There were a lot of pictures of him and his friends. There was even a picture of him and his family, one with his brother and father and the last picture Naruto saw was the one with him in it. It made Naruto blush to think Sasuke did the same thing he did.
"What are you doing over there?" Sasuke asked as he watched Naruto move around his room.
Sasuke couldn't help but feel oddly satisfied to have Naruto in his room.
"I will get the blankets that you will be using later. Are you by chance hungry or thirsty? I can get you something." Sasuke said standing up and heading for the door.
As much as he liked it he felt oddly overwhelmed by Naruto's presence in his room.
"Yeah, I would like something to drink." Naruto said nodding his head as he looked around.
Sasuke left out the room without another word. Naruto went to the bed area next since he didn't get to it. Honestly it seemed like the room wasn't equipped to be a room for anyone to begin with. Naruto got comfortable by the bed and the scent that was all Sasuke's was oddly comforting. He figured it wouldn't be a problem to lie back while he waited for Sasuke to come back in the room so he did. He didn't actually think he would fall asleep.
When Sasuke came back in the room it was like fifteen minutes later because he had to call his mother about the extra blankets for later when Naruto went to sleep he didn't expect the blonde to already be sleeping on his bed when he walked back into his room.
"Naruto?" Sasuke called out softly not really trying to disturb the blonde but still trying to see if he was awake.
Sasuke set the blankets down on the little couch he had to the side by the wall in his room. It did use to be a study. He would eventually bring his television in here so they could play the game. He walked up to the bed to look at Naruto as he slept. Naruto looked like he hasn't been getting much sleep that much to Sasuke anyway he could tell so he was just going to let him sleep. He went to his desk and grabbed his computer before walking back by Naruto taking off his glasses then making himself comfortable next to Naruto only to fall asleep along with him.
"Sasuke, wake up." Naruto said as he tried to pry Sasuke's arms from around him.
Naruto hasn't been getting good sleep ever since he has been dreaming about Sasuke. Now that he is in the face of his desire he luckily didn't dream of him.
'Thank god,' Naruto thought but now he had a different problem and that involved getting the Uchiha to let him go.
"What do you want?" Sasuke groaned letting Naruto go subconsciously.
Naruto didn't care if Sasuke noticed or not he just wanted to get up.
"Why did you let me sleep that long?" Naruto asked.
"Because you looked like you were at peace." Sasuke said yawning then started to wipe at his eyes to get the sleep out of them.
"Well thanks but can you show me where the bathroom is?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah," Sasuke said getting up his hand going in his hair shaking it.
The only thing Sasuke missed about his room upstairs was the fact that he had a bathroom in his room now he didn't. He always has to use the bathroom that happens to be downstairs.
"I will be back in my room." Sasuke said after he showed him yawning and walking to his room.
Naruto didn't say anything just ran into the bathroom and started thinking about his decisions that got him in the position he was in to begin with.
'I should have just gone home now I am stuck here.' Naruto thought to himself.
He started washing his hands then went out the bathroom and ran right into Sasuke.
"What is it?" Naruto asked.
"Hn," Sasuke grunted and walked past Naruto closing the door.
'Okay that was weird bastard.' Naruto said.
Naruto walked back to the room and waited to do anything until Sasuke walked in the room.
"When is your mother supposed to be coming home?" Naruto asked.
Sasuke looked at his phone to see what time it was.
"She should be here in a few minutes. Why did I have drool on my neck?" Sasuke asked as he sat on his bed.
"You drool," Naruto said grabbing his book bag so he could pull out his homework.
"What are you doing?" Sasuke asked yawning.
"My homework," Naruto said.
"Would it kill you to do it another day?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, why don't you do your homework and give your parents a heart attack from seeing you do it?" Naruto asked as he sat on the floor by a table that was there.
Naruto didn't hear anything but turned around when he heard Sasuke get up and go to his book bag sitting next to Naruto so he could do the homework with him.
"So, you're actually going to do your homework?" Naruto asked glancing at Sasuke.
"I don't have anything else to do especially if you're not paying attention to me." Sasuke grumbled then smirked. "And it would be nice to see my parents faces when they catch me doing my homework with you." Sasuke said making Naruto laugh.
"Figures, I knew you were a bastard." Naruto said laughing at him.
Sasuke loved Naruto's laugh but he was never going to admit that to anyone.
A half hour passed and Naruto was showing Sasuke how to do his English homework when Mikoto came in the house. The two teens were so engrossed with each other that they didn't even notice her take a picture of the two of them.
"Hello boys," Mikoto said making them both look up.
"Hi Mrs. Uchiha," Naruto said standing up.
"What homework are you doing?" Mikoto asked smiling at Naruto.
"He's helping me with my English." Sasuke answered.
Mikoto was shocked by Sasuke's response because she didn't think he would be honest about Naruto helping him.
"He gets it easy." Naruto complimented.
"Because you're a better teacher than the one I have." Sasuke said smugly.
"Thanks, I guess." Naruto said sitting back down next to Sasuke.
"Yeah, yeah." Sasuke said then glanced back at his mother. "What is for dinner tonight?" Sasuke asked.
"You didn't go out to eat tonight?" Mikoto asked shocked.
"Nope, Naruto and I have been here the whole time and you said you wanted to make him a dinner." Sasuke said.
"Oh, well we will be making fish with rice." Mikoto said with a smile.
Naruto smiled at her and then Mikoto walked out.
"Why does dinner seem to be forced?" Naruto asked as they heard her in the kitchen.
"Because I usually don't eat dinner with them." Sasuke answered as he continued to do his homework.
"Oh," Naruto said leaning back because he was already done with the few pieces of homework he had.
"Naruto, I already have an idea of what we can do tomorrow." Sasuke said as he finished his English homework that he was doing.
He pulled Naruto's Math homework out of his folder and started to copy until Naruto took it away from him reprimanding him with a swat on the hand.
"Do your own homework. Oh, really what is that?" Naruto asked.
"Have you ever ridden a motorcycle?" Sasuke asked tilting his head to look at Naruto.
"No, I haven't." Naruto said.
"Would you ride one with me tomorrow?" Sasuke asked.
Naruto pondered for a little bit. Honestly, he wasn't sure if that was a good idea but he didn't want to seem like a pussy to Sasuke.
"Fine, I will. Where are we going on it?" Naruto asked.
"I haven't decided that yet but we can find somewhere fun." Sasuke said with a smirk.
"Boys it will just be us three eating tonight." Mikoto said from the kitchen making Sasuke get up.
"Why isn't father going to be here?" Sasuke asked sounding irritated to Naruto.
"Because he has business with Naruto's father that makes him unavailable tonight." Mikoto said.
"Then you don't have to cook if you don't want to mother." Sasuke said.
"If you two don't mind me leaving I would like to go and spend some time with Naruto's mother Kushina." Mikoto said.
"It's fine, go have fun. We can cook for ourselves." Naruto said with a smile.
Sasuke looked at him in confusion like Naruto was growing two heads.
"Really?" Mikoto asked happily. "You two will be fine?" Mikoto asked as she walked out the kitchen.
"Yeah we will be fine. Go and have fun." Naruto said.
Mikoto was out the door in a second kissing Sasuke on the cheek quickly. Sasuke just glanced at Naruto like he was asking what they were going to do now.
"Don't worry so much I know how to cook." Naruto said standing up.
"Really?" Sasuke asked slightly shocked.
"Yeah, I used to cook for my friend because his parents never cooked him lunch for school." Naruto said carelessly telling Sasuke a little bit about his past that he didn't want to talk about to anyone.
"Why don't you talk about this friend?" Sasuke asked.
"Because there is nothing to say." Naruto said.
"You just said something about him." Sasuke said sitting down while Naruto continued to cook the food that Mikoto left for them.
"Yeah it was a slip up." Naruto said.
"Are you guys not friends anymore?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"I don't want to talk about it." Naruto said.
"Why?" Sasuke asked.
"BECAUSE I DON'T OKAY!" Naruto screamed getting irritated.
"Fine," Sasuke said slightly irritated walking to his room leaving Naruto in the kitchen by himself.
Naruto felt bad the moment he heard the door shut. Why couldn't he just talk to Sasuke about Gaara? He just didn't want to talk about his failed friendship. Maybe it was because he felt like it was his fault that their friendship failed to begin with but it wasn't something he liked talking about.
Naruto just continued to cook because he couldn't exactly walk away to talk to Sasuke because he didn't want to set the house on fire. It was like Sasuke knew because he came back out and sat where he was before with his homework in his hands. Naruto couldn't help but smile at the look of Sasuke doing his homework.
It was a few minutes before Sasuke decided he wanted to speak again.
"I'm sorry for bringing up your old friend. I just thought we could open up more to each other. I do want to know the things you like. I do really think that's real friendship. Talking is the only way we're going to be able to be real friends." Sasuke said not looking up to see Naruto's reaction.
"You don't have to apologize. I would have gone over to you if I wasn't cooking but I didn't want to burn your house down. It's just hard for me to talk about since it was hard to deal with when I was there." Naruto voiced softly.
"Is it one of the reasons why your parents decided to move here?" Sasuke asked.
"I guess," Naruto said shrugging his shoulders not really sure.
"What happened?" Sasuke asked.
"I only had one friend in Suna his name was Gaara. I met him in elementary school the only one to not judge me for being smart." Naruto said smiling as he thought of the past.
"That sounds stupid." Sasuke said.
"Yup, but that's how people thought of me. They thought I thought I was too good for everyone. That's why no one wanted to be friends with me. Then everyone started to try something toward me and my brother protected me, fighting for me. I hated it." Naruto said.
"That sucks," Sasuke mumbled as he watched Naruto. "So why did you start making food for your friend?" Sasuke asked.
"Because he asked me to. I used to make my own lunch because my mom was always busy with my siblings so I thought it wouldn't be much of a problem to make his too. We became friends eating lunch together. It started to get to the point where we were always together and I was happy to finally have a friend because I knew no one would understand me like Gaara did. Then one day when I was going to the roof where he used to meet me I heard a conversation I wasn't supposed to. I asked Gaara about it and he told me. I thought it was serious and told my father even though Gaara told me not to tell anyone. When Gaara found out the next day that I said something he told me he wasn't my friend anymore and threw some pretty harsh words at me along with the lunch I made for him. I went home after school sad and then my father told me that we were moving." Naruto said as he set the food on plates. "I was relieved to hear we were moving because Gaara wasn't talking to me and it was so bad in high school for both me and my brother. I think that's why Kurama didn't want to go to school anymore. It got to the point where he couldn't even stop the bullying." Naruto said as he handed Sasuke his plate of food.
"What did you tell your dad?" Sasuke asked.
"That Gaara was being beat at home. That his dad even tried to kill him several times. I just wanted him to be safe but I guess I did the wrong thing for my friend." Naruto said putting his head to the side.
Sasuke reached over to Naruto making Naruto look up.
"You didn't do anything wrong. In my opinion you did the right thing. If you didn't do anything I would have questioned your friendship with me. What would you have done if one day he was dead because you didn't say anything?" Sasuke said.
"Thanks, I would have been sad and disappointed in myself." Naruto said as he handed Sasuke a fork.
"It's no problem, maybe one day Gaara will understand why you did it and forgive you." Sasuke said.
"A week before we left he got taken away from his dad and had to go live with his grandma. He told me he would never forgive me." Naruto said.
"He will," Sasuke said.
Naruto didn't really get why he believed Sasuke after that but he did. He knew there will be a day where he was forgiven. That was the end of the conversation between the two as they ate in silence. It was hard to get out of the awkward way the two complimented each other. Naruto didn't understand why it seemed so easy to talk to Sasuke to begin with and the fact that Sasuke was willing to comfort him made him happy.
"Now can we play the game?" Sasuke asked as he finished his plate.
"Yeah," Naruto said shrugging his shoulders.
"Good, I'm going to bust your ass now." Sasuke said going toward his room.
Naruto grabbed both plates and washed them really quick. He didn't notice Sasuke watching him from his doorway or the fact that there was a soft smile on the Uchiha's face from seeing Naruto wash dishes like it was his own house.
"Let's do this now." Naruto said wiping his hands off and walking to Sasuke who was still in the door watching him. "What?" Naruto asked an eyebrow rising.
"You looked like a house wife." Sasuke said chuckling at Naruto and his pout face.
"Fuck off asshole." Naruto growled out.
"I think I had enough of you talking shit to me." Sasuke said attacking Naruto pinning him to the wall in his room.
"DAMN it gets off me." Naruto growled.
"Nope, I dealt with a lot from you this week I think you owe me an apology." Sasuke said putting all his weight on Naruto.
"What the hell are you talking about bastard?" Naruto snapped.
"There you go again, being such an ass for no reason. Should I punish you?" Sasuke asked tilting his head to the side.
"Damn it Sasuke stop it. I don't know why you're doing this but I will bite you on the ear if you don't get off me." Naruto threatened.
"Nope this is how it has to be Naruto. You're just a naughty child. Daddy has to punish you." Sasuke said taking off his belt hitting Naruto one good time shocking Naruto.
"Don't hit me with your belt." Naruto growled out trying to hit Sasuke back but failing.
'What the hell is wrong with him?' Naruto thought to himself.
"Well I am the dad and I have to punish naughty children." Sasuke said sadistically.
"NO FUCKING WAY!" Naruto screamed pushing Sasuke away enough to be able to let him run away.
Naruto didn't see the smile on Sasuke's face. Sasuke couldn't help getting Naruto out of his comfort zones. It was just a precious sight to see the blonde not acting like a robot and that's all Sasuke wanted.
"I'm just playing with you Naruto. Help me with this problem then let's play the game." Sasuke said walking with his homework in his hand.
"What do you need help with?" Naruto asked me popping his head from where he was hiding.
Sasuke couldn't help but smile because he thought Naruto looked absolutely adorable.
"Come help me really quick." Sasuke said gesturing for him to come to him.
Naruto came out and fell into Sasuke's trap pulling Naruto to him. They played around for a few hours before they decided to lie down because Naruto was worn out.
"Naruto, are you glad you came here?" Sasuke asked as they lay next to each other.
"Yeah," Naruto whispered softly.
They heard Sasuke's parents coming in the house.
"What are we doing tomorrow?" Naruto asked as they listened to Fugaku complain about Mikoto drinking too much with Kushina.
"We're going to ride my motorcycle." Sasuke said chuckling softly when Naruto jumped up.
"You can't be serious?" Naruto asked.
"I am, now lay down." Sasuke said pulling Naruto down holding him into his body.
Naruto didn't know how to feel but struggled to get out until he heard Fugaku in the hallway and stopped moving.
"Be quiet or he will come in here to talk to us." Sasuke whispered in Naruto's ear.
If it wasn't so dark Sasuke would have seen the blush on Naruto's face.
"Sasuke, are you sleeping?" Fugaku asked.
"I'm about to be but Naruto is." Sasuke said holding Naruto tighter.
"I heard that you went to all your classes today I just wanted to tell you that I'm glad you're getting on the right track again." Fugaku said softly as to not wake up Naruto.
"Thanks," Sasuke said not sure what else to say.
"Well good night." Fugaku said and closed the door.
"You got half of what you wanted." Naruto said softly as he tried to move again so he could see Sasuke's face but Sasuke wouldn't let him move at all.
"Damn it Sasuke let me go." Naruto said as he struggled.
Sasuke let out a soft chuckle but held on tighter and put his head into Naruto's back making Naruto stop moving altogether.
"Just go to sleep Naruto." Sasuke said and that was the last thing that was said between the two.
The next day Naruto woke up to Sasuke completely on top of him. If Naruto wanted that is a really big IF he could just move his lips onto Sasuke's that's how close they were to each other but he didn't want to be what he kept telling himself.
"Sasuke get off me." Naruto whined pushing at his friend.
"Hmm... why?" Sasuke asked groaning and moving around on Naruto enough to not let Naruto go.
"Because I need to use the bathroom and I can barely breathe you asshole." Naruto growled out only making Sasuke chuckle.
Sasuke moved after a couple minutes of Naruto struggling when he realized he was starting to get a problem with having Naruto under him. Naruto ran to the bathroom and didn't know what to do about his little problem that Sasuke created so he just waited it off.
Sasuke noticed it was ten o'clock nowhere near the time he wanted to be up but since Naruto woke him up he has to deal with him all day.
"Naruto, what are you doing in there? Whacking off?" Sasuke asked making Naruto come out the bathroom with a bright blush on his face. "Were you?" Sasuke asked.
"No, you bastard, that is highly inappropriate in someone else's house." Naruto said.
"I would do it in your house if I needed too." Sasuke said making Naruto get a face of disgust that humored him to no end.
"That's just vile you monster." Naruto said still not out of Sasuke's way.
"I would use your towel to wipe it off too." Sasuke said in a suggestive way.
Naruto's mouth dropped he couldn't believe what he just heard and didn't think he wanted to understand it either.
"You're a monster." Naruto said stomping on his foot and walking back to the room.
Sasuke couldn't stop the chuckle that came out his throat as he held onto his now sore foot.
"It was so worth it." Sasuke said shaking his head as he went into the bathroom.
Sasuke was quick in the bathroom but not quick enough to stop Naruto from starting to cook them breakfast. Naruto was a monster in the kitchen but it was a good monster when Sasuke said it. He couldn't believe he found someone he thought cooked better than his mother. He said once that if he finds someone who cooks better than her he would have to marry that person and now he was considering marrying Naruto. That ass helped too in his opinion.
"What are you cooking?" Sasuke asked sitting by the counter.
"Eggs, toast, and bacon because I couldn't find sausage." Naruto said not looking at Sasuke.
"Big baby, just deal with bacon." Sasuke said.
"I am, now shut up." Naruto said irritated by the words Sasuke said.
"Since you woke me so early you have to spend the whole day with me." Sasuke said.
"You should have told me that would be the punishment and I would have never woke you up. This is what you call cruel and unusual punishment." Naruto said smirking at Sasuke's glare.
"Haha, very funny asshole." Sasuke growled.
"Oh, but I was so serious." Naruto said turning to him with a smile on his face.
"Sarcastic little shit." Sasuke growled standing up because now it was his turn to mess with Naruto.
He knew Naruto enough to know that Naruto doesn't like people in his personal bubble unless he initiates it.
"Move Sasuke," Naruto complained as he tried to get out from between the counter and Sasuke.
"Sasuke, what are you doing to Naruto?" Fugaku asked as he walked into the kitchen to see his son pinning his best friend's son against the counter.
Naruto kneed Sasuke in the knee and smiled at Fugaku as Sasuke tumbled down.
"Fugaku sir, I made breakfast if you would like some." Naruto said giving Fugaku a big smile.
Sasuke glared at Naruto for kneeing him and offering his breakfast to someone else.
"Is there enough for all of us?" Fugaku asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee wondering who made it.
"Yes, I made enough for everyone because I felt bad that Mikoto drank so much with my mother. I made that too I hope it's to your liking. I don't normally make it at home because my mom is normally awake before all of us." Naruto said.
Fugaku took a sip and couldn't help but think the coffee was better than his wife's he won't tell her that though.
"Thank you that would be nice to take breakfast to her. I'm sure she would be grateful for it." Fugaku said as he watched his son watch Naruto like how he did his own wife.
'I think I may need to talk to Minato about my boy having a thing for his boy.' Fugaku thought to himself.
"I can bring it to her if you want me to while you eat." Naruto said with a smile.
"That would be nice. It's up the stairs at the end of the hall straight ahead. The door is already opened a crack so you will know which one it is." Fugaku said as he watched Naruto move around setting a plate up for his wife.
Naruto was out the room with Sasuke about to follow but Fugaku called him back making Sasuke watched the door.
"You like him?" Fugaku asked.
"Yeah he is amusing to mess with." Sasuke said.
"That's not what I mean Sasuke." Fugaku said.
"I don't know what you mean." Sasuke said as he popped a piece of bacon in his mouth.
Naruto walked in so the conversation stopped. Naruto looked happy and Sasuke wasn't sure how he felt that he didn't create that happy smile on his face.
"I will serve you guys now." Naruto said ignoring Fugaku when he said he could do it himself.
Sasuke didn't even bother say anything because he already grew used to this from last night when he tried to help him.
"Fugaku just sit down your getting in my way." Naruto demanded like he was reprimanding a child.
'He reminded me of Kushina and Mikoto just now it was slightly scary.' Fugaku thought to himself.
"Father its best to leave Naruto to do what woman do best." Sasuke said with a smirk.
Naruto turned around so quickly with a smile on his face that made Sasuke oddly nervous.
"Sasuke, I will burn you if you call me a woman again." Naruto said making Sasuke flinch at the hardness and seriousness in Naruto's eyes.
"Okay, calm down you two." Fugaku said as Naruto handed them both plates and Naruto served himself.
As they ate their food in complete and utter silence the two Uchiha men realized Naruto was a better cook than Mikoto Uchiha and neither was going to make a comment about it in front of her ever. They were all broken out of eating from a loud bang upstairs and running coming down the stairs.
"Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze you are a delightful chef and I want you to always cook for me. You know how rare it is for men to actually be good cooks. I am ashamed to say these two don't know anything about this. Itachi might have a chance but these are cooking dead. You should please teach them." Mikoto said pleading with him.
"I think cooking should be done with feeling so I don't think Sasuke will ever know how to cook." Naruto said making Mikoto chuckle and Sasuke choke on his food.
"I don't want your cooking lessons anyway. I bet you couldn't teach anyone anything." Sasuke said not thinking about last night.
"That is not what you said last night when I helped you with your homework." Naruto said with a smirk appearing on his face making Sasuke blush.
Mikoto and Fugaku made eye contact noticing something between the two boys not really sure if the two noticed it themselves.
"We have to go." Sasuke said putting his plate in the sink and grabbing Naruto.
"We have to wash our dishes idiot." Naruto said trying to pull away but Sasuke wouldn't let go.
"Just go Naruto I will clean the dishes for eating your delicious meal." Mikoto said.
"Time to get ready Naruto." Sasuke said as they entered the room.
"Can I take a shower?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah," Sasuke said as he got his clothes ready. "I will take a shower upstairs while you take one downstairs." Sasuke said walking out the door.
Naruto ran to the bathroom with his clothes prepared to take a shower and wanting to get ready. They both were done in about the same amount of time. Naruto was still unsure on riding a motorcycle with Sasuke but he wanted to hear Fugaku say he was proud of Sasuke again so he could want to go to school without doing all of this. He felt how happy Sasuke was at hearing that despite always claiming he didn't care about his dad's opinion Naruto knew that to be untrue.
"You ready to go?" Sasuke asked as he walked into his room.
Naruto only had his pants on while he toweled off his hair. Sasuke wanted to touch Naruto's body but shoved his hands in his pockets to prevent him from touching him.
'What the hell is wrong with me?' Sasuke asked himself in his head.
"Yeah I'm about to be I just want to finish drying my hair so I don't get sick." Naruto said.
"Come here I will do it." Sasuke said gesturing to the bed.
Naruto did carelessly, he didn't really think it was anything that is until he sat in between Sasuke and Sasuke started toweling Naruto's hair did Naruto start to feel unsettled by the position they were in. Sasuke was tempted even more to touch him.
'Damn what the hell is going on with me?' Sasuke thought as he wiped the water dripping down Naruto's back.
"I think we're done." Naruto said getting up going to his bag and pulling his shirt out his bag.
"Do you want to use one of my coats? The wind is going to be blowing and you don't want to get cold." Sasuke said with a smirk.
"Sure," Naruto said as he fixed his shirt and put his shoes on.
"You don't look as proper as you usually do when you're in school. It amazes me when you hit that transformation mode." Sasuke said humor lacing his voice.
"I don't transform." Naruto said.
"Yes, you do," Sasuke said pulling out a coat and handing it to Naruto.
Naruto put it on and it oddly fit Naruto perfectly and suited the way he looks.
"Let's get going now." Sasuke said after pulling out his own coat.
As Naruto walked to the door Sasuke couldn't help the amount of pride that welled in him seeing the Uchiha symbol on Naruto's back. He wanted it to stay there.
"Sasuke get your ass moving." Naruto said already out the door.
'He only cusses at me.' Sasuke thought biting his lip and moving forward to Naruto.
"Listen to what I have to say Naruto. First you have to hold on to me. Second don't let go and if you feel like you're going to slip hold on tighter. Third don't move around too much because it can tip the bike. Fourth we will be going fast so get ready. Now are you ready?" Sasuke asked and Naruto shook his head no. "Too bad," Sasuke said throwing his helmet at Naruto.
"Could there be more incentive then you just staying in classes all week? I could lose my life and don't like that thought." Naruto said as he put the helmet on.
Sasuke chuckled at that. "You will be touching my magnificent body Naruto that is incentive enough." Sasuke said smirking.
"I don't want to touch it." Naruto said.
"Fine I will not skip for two weeks." Sasuke said.
"That's not incentive for me." Naruto whined but nodded his head as Sasuke got on his helmet.
"Just get on the motorcycle after I do." Sasuke said.
Naruto did as he was told.
"Hold on Naruto." Sasuke said and the moment Naruto held on to Sasuke's waist and was secured tightly the bike moved and Naruto was screaming while Sasuke was laughing.
It amused Sasuke to no end as Naruto screamed he couldn't help it. He just moved faster through the city as he came to the mountain forest area to his favorite area in all of Konoha. He was taking Naruto to his secret place that only Jugo knew about because it was also his secret place.
Naruto screamed the whole way on the bike. He couldn't tell Sasuke to stop going fast because he couldn't even stop screaming. When the bike started slowing down Naruto had a death grip on Sasuke's waist and had his head down so he couldn't see the world around him.
"Naruto, would you get off?" Sasuke asked with a chuckle.
"I can't move." Naruto mumbled shaking.
"You were that scared?" Sasuke laughed out.
"Fuck off bastard." Naruto said as he tried to get off the bike.
Sasuke bit his lip to prevent him from laughing. Naruto got off with a little struggle since his legs were asleep.
"Sasuke you bastard help me my legs are asleep." Naruto growled struggling to properly stand.
Sasuke couldn't hold the laugh in that time and chuckled freely.
"Fuck off Sasuke." Naruto grunted as he got the feeling back in his legs thankfully.
Naruto finally looked around to where they were noticing the wilderness around them and that they were above the city.
"This is beautiful." Naruto said going to the post that were blocking anyone from falling off.
"Yeah I love it here. It's my favorite place in the city." Sasuke answered sitting down by the post.
"Really? Why did you show it to me then?" Naruto asked sitting down next to him.
"Because I felt like it." Sasuke said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"Well it's beautiful." Naruto said softly making Sasuke blush.
Too bad Naruto didn't see it. The silence was peaceful between them they just took in the surroundings and the presence from each other.
"I have been wondering this for a while but where did you get those marks on your face?" Sasuke asked touching Naruto's cheek softly. "If you don't mind me asking." Sasuke said.
"I don't mind." Naruto said as he looked lost in thought.
Sasuke was about to say forget about it when Naruto started talking.
"I got into a situation back in Suna from being friends with Gaara and it led to people cutting my face." Naruto said making Sasuke freeze up.
"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked positively angry.
"I was friends with an outcast and he had a lot of people after him wanting to hurt him and one day they caught me. My brother found them and almost killed them with Gaara. After that I told my father about what was happening to Gaara and bam we stopped being friends." Naruto said.
"It was all because of who you hung out with?" Sasuke asked.
"Basically," Naruto said nodding his head.
"You've been through a lot for this Gaara guy and he didn't see how much you cared about him." Sasuke said slightly irritated.
"Yeah I guess you can say that. I hope one day we can talk again but I don't think it will happen." Naruto said leaning back so he was lying on the floor.
That was the end of the conversation after that and they both enjoyed the peace between the two. They enjoyed how it felt to be around the other and how they interacted with one another. It felt perfect for Sasuke especially but he didn't really understand why.
"We should get going now." Sasuke said not really wanting to because he really liked being around Naruto but he knew Naruto would eventually want something to eat because the blonde could eat for three.
"Yeah," Naruto said biting his lip.
Sasuke was shocked to see that it looked like Naruto didn't want to go.
"I can always bring you back here you know?" Sasuke said making Naruto smile.
"Really?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah," Sasuke said with a small smile.
The smile Naruto gave Sasuke made his heart jump more than Sasuke liked. The drive down the mountain was quiet maybe because Sasuke wasn't speeding like before but it was the calmest he has ever seen Naruto. It was getting really weird for him and he felt oddly like they were dating and didn't know how to respond to that at all.
"The breeze feels good right now." Naruto whispered by Sasuke's helmet.
"…" Sasuke wanted to say something but his words were caught in his throat as he thought about what he wanted to do to Naruto.
"Are we going to your house first because I left my stuff there?" Naruto asked as they started driving through the city.
Sasuke just nodded his head because he couldn't talk even if his life depended on it. When they got to Sasuke's house Naruto ran into the house to get his things while Sasuke put his bike in the garage and got into his car.
"Sasuke," Naruto called to him.
"Hm," Sasuke grunted.
"Do you know where my shirt for school went?" Naruto asked.
"No, I will look for it when I get back later." Sasuke said.
"Okay thanks," Naruto said going back inside and then running back out with Mikoto walking behind him and waving to Sasuke.
Sasuke waved bye to his mom and drove right out the garage and headed to Naruto's house.
"Thanks, Sasuke, this was fun." Naruto said making Sasuke have to hold back a smile.
"No problem." Sasuke said.
When they were outside of Naruto's house they were unsure of what to do.
"I will talk to you tomorrow." Sasuke said.
"Yeah," Naruto said moving to open the door then remembered the coat. "Oh, your coat." Naruto said starting to take the coat off.
"Its fine you can hold it for me." Sasuke said stopping Naruto from taking it off.
"Okay, thanks for the night. Really Sasuke I haven't talked to anyone about Gaara to anyone so thank you for hearing me out." Naruto said.
"It really was no problem. You can talk to me about anything." Sasuke said with a soft smile coming to his face.
"Thanks," Naruto said and got out the car.
Naruto walked into his house and the first thing he noticed was that Itachi was in the house and all his siblings were in the dining room. He finally realized he was hungry when he noticed they were eating enchiladas.
"Did you guys save me some?" Naruto asked making everyone jump because he came in quietly.
"We did but Itachi ate them because we didn't think you were coming home." Kurama said apologetically.
"That doesn't mean give my food away you asshole." Naruto growled making him walk away.
"Is he wearing my brother's coat?" Itachi asked puzzled because he knew that was his brother's favorite coat.
"Damn those bastards didn't save me any food." Naruto said.
It took Naruto a half an hour before he decided to just call Sasuke.
"What is it?" Sasuke asked with humor in his voice.
He was hanging out with Suigetsu at an arcade though Suigetsu was flirting with girls. Normally Sasuke would to for the hell of it but lately he hasn't even been interested in that.
"Are you busy right now?" Naruto asked hopeful.
"Why? Do you miss me already?" Sasuke asked.
"No bastard, I was wondering if you... wanted to... never mind." Naruto said.
"What is it Naruto?" Sasuke asked curious
"Your damn brother is at my house right now and ate my food now I don't have anything to eat." Naruto grumbled.
"Why don't you make something?" Sasuke asked.
"Because my mom doesn't like it when she makes dinner and we make something else afterwards." Naruto said.
"So, what are you trying to ask me?" Sasuke asked.
"If you will go out to eat with me? I don't want to go alone and I still don't know what the good places are but if you're busy its fine." Naruto said.
'He wants to hang out with me. WILLINGLY!' Sasuke thought. "Yeah I can go with you as long as you don't mind me bringing Suigetsu." Sasuke said.
"Are you with him now?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah, I don't want to bail on him now." Sasuke said honestly.
"That's fine then just please come get me before I die of hunger." Naruto whined.
"Okay okay, but under one condition." Sasuke said.
"What is it?" Naruto asked.
"Wear my coat." Sasuke said.
"Fine it's comfortable anyway." Naruto said not really understanding why Sasuke was telling him that.
"Okay I will be there in ten minutes." Sasuke said.
"Okay," Naruto said hanging up.
Naruto got back on Sasuke's coat that was on Naruto's desk chair. He liked the coat despite it having the Uchiha symbol on it.
'Does it feel like he owns me with the symbol on my back?' Naruto thought to himself.
"Where are you going?" Menma asked at the door.
"Sasuke is coming to get me so I can get something to eat because you know how mom is." Naruto said.
"Does that mean you're not coming home tonight?" Menma asked.
"No, I'm coming home right after I eat." Naruto said to his little brother.
"Good I want to show you some drawings I made." Menma said.
Naruto looked excited and brightened up when he heard his brother say that.
"I am excited to see them then." Naruto said giving his brother a warm smile making Menma smile himself.
"NARUTO! SASUKE IS OUTSIDE FOR YOU!" Kurama screamed.
"I will be back okay." Naruto said and ran down the stairs to Sasuke.
In the car Sasuke's eyes got shockingly darker at the look of Naruto wearing his coat.
"You actually let him wear your coat?" Suigetsu asked shocked.
"Yeah, he needed to wear it." Sasuke said.
"For your guys ride together earlier or for a different reason Sasuke?" Suigetsu asked not in the least bit convinced it was just for the ride they had.
"Shut up," Sasuke said as Naruto hopped in the back seat.
"Thank you," Naruto said.
"No problem, why is my brother at your house anyway?" Sasuke asked.
"I don't know he seems to be getting along with Kurama lately." Naruto said.
"There not the only ones to be getting close." Suigetsu mumbled making Sasuke hit the brakes so Suigetsu flew into the dash board.
"You should really be wearing your seatbelt." Sasuke said like he didn't just do it on purpose.
That was the last time Suigetsu said anything the rest of the car ride in fear of Sasuke doing something else to hurt him. They went back to the arcade to eat some pizza that was served there. Naruto and Sasuke ate the pizza while Suigetsu chatted with girls.
"Sasuke who is he?" A girl approached the table.
"My friend," Sasuke said.
"Naruto," Naruto said holding out his hand to the girl.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Sara." Sara said.
"Nice to meet you too." Naruto said not really interested in the girl but not a rude bastard.
It was like fifteen minutes of them three sitting there having random conversations before Sara asked Naruto if he had a girlfriend after he said no she said did he want one and Naruto once again said no. It didn't really shock Sasuke but it made him really happy.
"Are you gay?" Sara asked.
"No," Naruto said neutrally.
"I think it's time to head out." Sasuke said looking at the time.
"What time is it?" Naruto asked.
"Ten," Sasuke said.
"Damn it, I have to go." Naruto said getting the coat back on and walking out the establishment.
"He has the Uchiha symbol on him. Is there something going on between you two?" Sara asked looking toward Sasuke who just glared instead of answering.
"Suigetsu come on." Sasuke hollered over.
Suigetsu got up and walked to him saying hi to Sara then followed Sasuke out the door. Naruto was already at the door waiting for the doors to unlock. The ride to Naruto's house was silent especially when Suigetsu got dropped off first.
"I really appreciate you helping me today. Sorry for ruining your plans today with Suigetsu." Naruto said as they pulled up to Naruto's house.
"Suigetsu was checking out girls anyway I was glad to have the company." Sasuke said not looking toward Naruto.
"You're not as bad as you make yourself out to be Sasuke." Naruto said chuckling.
"Hey I have been being nice because of our deal." Sasuke said trying to reason his niceness.
It was a light chuckle that alerted Sasuke to look Naruto's way to see the smile he was longing to see since he first seen the smile. It was always directed toward someone other than him but tonight it was him who created it. Naruto's head was tilted to the side and Sasuke couldn't block the butterflies that entered his stomach at the moment but at the same time didn't want to.
"I will see you later." Naruto whispered kissing Sasuke on his cheek before he could stop himself.
They pulled apart shocked and didn't know what to say. Both were blushing bright red and Naruto made a break for it jumping out the car and running to his house. Sasuke on the other hand leaned his head against the steering wheel to even out his breathing and will away the blush. As he tried that he couldn't help but feel the smile creeping on his face.
'Things could only get better from here.' Sasuke thought.
That kiss on the cheek set off a chain of events for the near future for both of them.
