Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Naruto... Sadly...
Hello~! I want to say a quick thanks to my reviewers.
IMPORTANT: This is the last SasuNaru story I will be posting. From now on it is NaruSasu! (Until I start liking SasuNaru again)
Sorry For Grammar Mistakes... I do them a lot. -_- But! Nobody is perfect!
Sasuke grabbed his beeping alarm clock and threw it across the room. Two days. For two days he has been listening to Naruto talking about Inari. No matter how many times Sasuke tells him that Inari isn't the bastard, Naruto doesn't believe him. If he has to listen to his idiot talk about another guy for one more day, Sasuke was going to explode.
He got up slowly debating whether or not to go to school. He didn't want to hear Naruto talking about Inari, but he didn't want Inari to make a move on his boyfriend. There was only one thing Sasuke could do; go to school and deal with the torture.
He took slow steps to his wooden writing desk in the corner of his room where a folded paper laid. Sasuke couldn't help but smile as he picked it up. He carefully unfolded the piece of paper and began to read it once more.
Dear Bastard,
Who is this guy you are talking about? I mean, who is he to you? I'm not jealous or anything, but as your boyfriend I do have a right to know. You talk about him quite a lot. I'm just wondering who he is.
Yeah...
Anyways!
I am so worried about my math and civics class. I have a test coming up on each class. I have no idea how I am going to pass them. I have no idea what my teachers are teaching me. I could use some advice right about now...
Thinking about you, Naruto.
Sasuke sighed as Naruto kept blabbering nonsense about Inari. Sasuke wanted to run, get Genma, then proceed to slam his face against the wall for taking Raidou away from class, leaving Naruto with lots of time to talk about you-know-who.
"I wish there was some way to spend more time with him," Naruto said as he bit on the eraser of his pencil.
Sasuke rolled his eyes as soon as that comment left the blond's mouth. "Whatever," he muttered.
"Is something wrong?" Naruto asked, oblivious.
Sasuke looked into the blond's azure eyes and sighed. There was noway he could tell the blond the truth. "... Nothing's wrong."
"Are you sure?" Naruto questioned, not really convinced with Sasuke's answer. "You've been acting differently for the past few days."
Sasuke opened his mouth to give Naruto a sarcastic remark but stopped. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Well... you haven't given me one of your witty comments. You also haven't really been talking to me..." Naruto bit his lip as worry set in. "Are you sick?" he asked as he reached over to put his hand on Sasuke's forehead.
Sasuke's heart accelerated at the thought of the blond being worried about him. However, he couldn't handle the thought of Naruto thinking about another man. His body reacted on it's own and slapped the tan hand away. Naruto showed shock, confusion, and hurt by the action that he just did. Sasuke could hear the whispers of the other students, guilt started to arise slowly. He looked at Naruto and said the words that he truly didn't want to say, but he needed to. "I'm sorry."
Naruto looked at him and showed a small smile, "It's okay."
Naruto was frustrated. He didn't understand why Sasuke was acting so cold toward him. He was really worried about him. Every time he tried to help him Sasuke would just push him away or give him the cold shoulder. He didn't know what to do. All he knew was that he wasn't in the mood for anything, not even fifth period with Inari.
The blond sat on the sidelines not really wanting to play basketball. He was trying to come up with a reason as to why Sasuke was acting like this. He couldn't come up with any. There must be someway to get him to open up to me, Naruto thought hopefully. I just have to think of a way... think...
"Hey, Naruto," a familiar voice said.
Naruto looked at Inari as he sat down next to him. "Hey..."
"Is everything okay?" Inari asked.
"Yeah..." Naruto lied not wanting to bring Inari into his problems. "Everything is great."
"You're lying."
"How do you know that?"
"I can tell," Inari said while giving a smile.
Naruto felt his face heat up. "Um... I'm just having trouble with Sasuke... that's it."
"O-oh." Inari's smile fell. "I-I, um, I can't help you there."
"What?" Naruto asked bewildered. "What are you talking about?"
"You know..." he said nervously.
"Know what?"
"I'm not-"
"Not what?"
"Gay," he said in a low voice. "I'm not gay."
What? Naruto thought to himself and then everything clicked. "Sasuke and I aren't dating! H-how did you know that I-"
"Whew," Inari said as he smiled. "That's a relief. My friend has this huge crush on you and now I can tell him that he still has a chance."
What...
"I should have known that you guys weren't dating. You two are like polar opposites. I mean, Sasuke's a emotionless-"
What?
"-cold hearted-"
What?
"-bastard."
Naruto jumped up from the floor and looked down at Inari. "Shut up!" he yelled causing the whole gym to become silent.
"What," Inari said as he got off the ground.
Naruto's fist clenched. "What? What? You can't just talk about my friend like that! You don't even know him!" he yelled at Inari. "Sasuke isn't emotionless, and he isn't cold hearted. He's far from that! Yeah, he might come off as an asshole or a bastard sometimes but he isn't always like that! He laughs at my stupid ass jokes. He's always helping me with everything; he's a great guy... He's one of the most kindhearted people I know... If you guys even gave him the slightest chance to look behind those gorgeous looks of his you might actually understand!"
Inari rolled his eyes. "I've known him longer than you have, Naruto. He's an asshole."
"Inari! Naruto!" The substitute yelled. "Detention!"
Naruto felt his anger rise even higher. He felt his body react on it's own. He pulled his fist back and launched it forward.
Naruto walked into his father's class after school with a ice pack for his fist that still hurt. However, the pain was nothing compared to the look his father was giving him. It killed... Naruto was wondering why his father had to be the teacher who was watching over them during detention.
"Naruto," his father said sternly as Naruto gave him the detention slip.
"Hi," Naruto said in a small voice.
"I am really disappointed in you, Naruto," he responded. "Go sit down."
Naruto turned away from his father, full of shame. He looked around the classroom to see Inari near the door with an ice pack and a really, really dark purple bruise around his right eye. There were a few students in the middle of the class sleeping. What surprised Naruto the most was seeing Sasuke all the way in the back looking out the window. Naruto didn't have to think twice, he quickly sat next to Sasuke. Naruto looked at Sasuke, who didn't even seem to notice him there and if he did, he was ignoring him. Naruto frowned.
"I will be right back," Naruto's father, Mr. Namikaze, said. "Don't do anything reckless."
Once Minato left, Naruto turned toward Sasuke and said his name. "Sasuke..."
Sasuke ignored him once again.
"Sasuke," Naruto whined. "Look at me." He heard Sasuke sigh softly and then he turned to face him. Naruto stared into Sasuke's onyx eyes, his heart started thumping against his chest furiously. He opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. His heart beat started to become louder. He was sure Sasuke could hear it. Naruto didn't even know why his heart was beating like crazy.
"Inari," Sasuke started. "Is over there alone. It looks like he needs comfort after what happened to his eye." Sasuke was obviously hinting Naruto to leave him alone, but the blond didn't care. The raven stared at him wondering why he hasn't left. "You know what they say," he blurted out.
Naruto looked at him wonderingly. "What?"
"Be careful what you wish for..."
"I didn't wish for this!" Naruto yelled at him.
Sasuke stared at him slightly wide-eyed. "I thought you wanted alone time with Inari."
The blond shook his head. "I don't care about him. I was talking about us."
Sasuke didn't know whether to be happy or worried. So, he settled for both. He was happy that Naruto didn't care about Inari, but he was worried about what Naruto was going to say next. "What about us?" Sasuke questioned.
"Is everything okay between us?" Naruto asked. "I mean, you're my only friend-"
"No, I'm not your o-"
"-Yes you are! And, you haven't been talking to me. You've been ignoring me and giving me a cold shoulder and it hurts Sasuke. It really does..."
"I'm sorry," Sasuke said sincerely as he pulled Naruto into a hug. "I've just been having a lot of things going on lately."
Naruto's heart skipped a beat as Sasuke wrapped his arms around him. His heart thumped painfully against his chest. He didn't understand what was going on, but it felt weird. He's never felt like this before.
Oh god, Naruto thought to himself. Am I having a panic attack for almost losing my friend? Pfft. I am so weird.
Naruto chuckled as he pulled away from Sasuke.
"What's so funny?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"Nothing," he replied with a huge smile.
"If you don't mind me asking," He said to Naruto. "Why are you in detention?"
Naruto looked at Inari then back at Sasuke. "Ha-hah."
"You're joking." Sasuke smirked as Naruto shook his head from side to side. "Why?"
Naruto felt his face heat up. "He was talking about you."
Sasuke showed a small smile to his idiot sending Naruto's heart soaring. "Thanks."
"W-why are you in detention, Mr. Perfect?"
"Well, after class Iruka wanted to talk to me. That's why I couldn't walk with you to lunch. Anyway, he started talking to me about... something... and I couldn't hold it in. I exploded. I cursed at him and now I have a detention for today and the next four days of school."
Naruto's mouth dropped. "Five days? What the hell? Why five days?"
"A day for every language I curse him out in..."
Naruto couldn't hold it in. He laughed. He laughed so hard that everyone in the room turned to look at him.
