Chapter 6-Naruto's Charms part 1

Sitting on the couch, Sasuke reads his book comfortably. It's already past noon and the weather seems perfect for lazing around. The rhythmic flutter of the window curtains echoed around the house with the gentle afternoon breeze caressing every living thing with its sweet embrace. The ticking of the clock that lulls the weary soul to sleep and happy chirping birds exhilarate an aura of peacefulness.

All this was felt by our number one silence lover. Especially, when an adorable blond is sleeping peacefully right on his lap. Everything is perfect.

Bringing himself to a contented tiny smile, Sasuke felt very comfortable on his current position. Reading while taking nice little sips from his tea, nothing can compare to this small haven he made for himself. It's been a while since he enjoyed silence like this. Going back on reading, his other hand is busy playing with that sun kissed hair owned by the sleeping boy. It was after their lunch that Naruto felt sleepy and decides to take a nap on the couch. Without anything to do, Sasuke decided to read a book and sit beside Naruto only to be used as the blonds' pillow which is not so bad actually.

Weaving his fingers through those locks, he realized that he liked the feel of Naruto's hair. Even though he won't admit it, he find it so soft and silky to the touch that you can't tell because of the spiky style the blond always had. Thinking about some past occurrences, now he knows why some people liked ruffling the blond's hair.

Those 'hair molesters' was the term Sasuke calls them sometimes. Wondering why he feels so possessive over such a trivial thing, he thinks of people who he doesn't want to touch Naruto's hair.

But why actually? It's not like he owns Naruto's hair… or specifically Naruto…

Thinking into some other things, he remembered Naruto using his puppy dog face during their lunch earlier and he is too cute that time! He had to collect every ounce of his self-control not to jump and ravish him above the-…. What is he thinking?!

Sasuke's grip on his book tightened and just like an intuition, hit himself hard on his head.

"Ow!" scolding himself for forgetting that his book is the hard bound leather type that really hurts when you get hit it by it, his frown deepened when he realized that this kind of mistake is something Naruto would do not an Uchiha like him. He frowned again and glared at nothing.

Surely he's not thinking perverted thoughts on Naruto! He's his bestfriend! And also a guy like him! Having unnecessary feelings toward the blond will be just so… wrong! Something's really off with him since they started this plan of his. Maybe it's a caution! For what actually?

Having enough, he closed his book and placed it on the coffee table beside his tea. Maybe he's just reading too much into these things. Maybe he just needs to clear his mind.

Feeling his legs go numb, he decided to wake Naruto up. Placing one hand on Naruto's shoulder, he slightly shook the boy and waited for a reaction.

Nothing.

He shook him again, this time with his two hands and all he got was a simple grunt.

He shook him again twice as hard and even called the blonds' name, but he continued sleeping.

Feeling quite mischievous, Sasuke pushed Naruto off him thinking that would wake the idiot up. However, he continued to sleep even he's already on the floor now.

Feeling a little annoyed, Sasuke stood up and in a loud voice said that if he won't wake up soon, he'll burn all his precious ramen collection.

As if on cue, Naruto's eyes opened wide and Sasuke smirked.

"Just try and I'll burn your precious dark chocolate collection too." replied Naruto threateningly, glared daggers and went back to sleep. Sasuke's smirk faded…

'What the he-…'

Sasuke's right eye twitched, his fist twitched, his upper lip twitched, his eyebrow twitched, his body twitched, his angry nerve twitched and Sasuke snapped. His twitching right fist went straight to Naruto's head.

THWACK!

"ITAAAAAI!!!"

Sitting up instantly, Naruto covered his head with his two hands and rubbed the now forming bump on his head.

"That hurt, teme!"

Looking up to face the smirking Uchiha, Naruto did what the most sensible thing a man like him can do.

Stick out his tongue.

And that was it, Sasuke launched towards Naruto and a fight began. Punches and kicks were given to both parties. Wrestling here and struggling there, bickering and yelling until it all stopped when Sasuke effectively pinned Naruto on the floor.

"Don't just blurt out other people's secrets! Usuratonkachi!"

Naruto thrashed to make Sasuke let go but the Uchiha's grip is strong.

"Shut up! Teme! You're the one who started it!"

"So what! Everyone knows you like ramen, idiot! What would you do if someone heard it and spread it around?"

"It's not like you'll be in grave danger if other people knows about your obsession with dark chocolate..!"

"Idiot! Then those "fangirls" will give me dark chocolate everyday! And our efforts pretending to be a couple so that they will back out will be ruined. Besides, it's bad to have too much of a good thing. "

"Not for me..! If I get ramen everyday I'll be the happiest man of all!"

Sasuke rolled his eyes, feeling his anger ebb away, he got off Naruto.

"Hn, whatever dobe. Get up now or I'll strangle you. "

Naruto pouted at this making Sasuke feel strange again. Darn it, why does Naruto always look so cute when he pouts? Shaking his head, he took hold on Naruto's hand and pulled him up forcefully.

"Aiyaa! You don't have to be so forceful you know? You're such a-…"

"bastard… yeah..yeah… " Naruto pouted again and Sasuke flicked his forehead. Smirking, he turned around to clean the mess from their previous fight which is surprisingly not really that much since his empty cup was just turned over and the coffee table is upside down but his book was nowhere to be found.

Turning around to ask Naruto if he saw the book, Sasuke saw Koharu instead.

"And why are you in that form?" raising a naturally shaped eyebrow, Sasuke eyed Koharu suspiciously.

"Because, I need to practice so that I can do Koharu's character correctly when I change into her!"

Sasuke grunted and turned around to arrange the coffee table while Naruto who's now Koharu smiled slyly from behind.

'Operation: Charm Sasuke, begin! I know he likes the female me. He just won't admit it! (insert evil laugh) But, it's kinda weird…It's like he likes me, but he doesn't like the me but the me who is now me. Okay…I'm now confused. Never mind…Get on with the plan! '

"Ne, Sasu-chan… Let me do the dishes…" said Koharu cutely. Sasuke stared at her, she is already wearing an apron with an expectant look in her eyes. Koharu blushed when Sasuke walked closer to her and leaned down slightly so that they were face to face.

"I'll wash my cup myself, and why are you wearing my Mother's apron anyway? Get that apron off of you and give it to me." ordered Sasuke.

Taking the apron off from Koharu and wearing it himself, Sasuke proceeded to wash his teacup. Koharu just stood there dejected.

'Damn! Apron Allure is a failure!' thought Naruto.

'Next plan!'

After finishing washing his teacup, Sasuke turned around to ask Naruto again if he found his book but Naruto is nowhere to be found.

"Now, where did that dobe go?"

"Aaaah!"

"Naruto?!"

Rushing towards where the cry came from, Sasuke found Koharu sitting on the floor of the balcony.

"What happened?"

"I-…I slipped…" sobbed Koharu.

"Geez. You're just clumsy as ever, Naruto."

"I'm not Naruto!"

"Hn?"

"I said, I'm not Naruto now! I'm Koharu! Ouch!"

Wondering what the blond meant Sasuke sat down beside the blonde and looked for injuries.

"What part of you hurt, Koharu?"

"My-…My ankle… I think I sprained it…I can't stand."

Sasuke nodded and carried the blonde bridal style. This surprised Naruto, making the female him blush. Being daring, Koharu wrapped her arms on Sasuke's neck. Sasuke looked at her and Koharu smiled beautifully. So beautiful that even the coldest hearted person in the earth would swoon.

Sasuke just stared at her with surprised eyes.

Seeing Sasuke's face, Naruto did a victory dance inside his mind. However, Sasuke suddenly let go of his female body and rushed inside the house. He crouched down the sofa and pulled out something.

"Hn. Finally, here's my book. I thought I lost it."

Then, Sasuke proceeded towards the Uchiha's study room to return the book leaving a pissed Koharu on the balcony.

'Darn! I thought I had him! My calculations failed! I thought he will fall for my charming smile and then accept his defeat! Darn!'

Coming back from the study, once again Sasuke can't find Naruto or even Koharu. Deciding to look in the kitchen, there he saw Koharu rummaging through something from the fridge.

"Yup! Found it!" cried the blonde girl.

"What is it that you 'found' actually?" asked Sasuke, looking behind the counter. Koharu jumped a little from hearing Sasuke's voice.

"Uhm…ano…heheheee…"

Sasuke walked up behind Koharu and peered down her shoulders.

"Is that-… Hn. Whatever." Sasuke walked back, sat on one of the stools and placed his elbow on the counter to support his chin while staring at Koharu boringly.

Koharu stuck her tongue out playfully and brought out a bowl of chocolate cream puffs. Sitting comfortably on the stool that is conveniently beside Sasuke, she placed the bowl in front of her and began digging in. Every time she eats one cream puff she makes a very satisfied sound, trying to sound seductively but in Sasuke's opinion she sounds like a cat purring annoyingly.

'Hehehe…Just take a look at me Sasuke… Plan: Cute Chocolate Covered Girl,begin!'

Koharu continued eating happily while smearing her face with chocolate intentionally thinking that Sasuke will be seduced by her. I mean, who wouldn't be? Here, a very cute girl covered with chocolate who wouldn't want to lick her? Sometimes his ideas are kinda lewd. Guess it's from hanging out with Jiraiya too much.

Feeling conceited, Naruto continued his plans.

(which are all failures, by the way…)

Meanwhile, Sasuke eyed Koharu disgustingly. Why, there's chocolate in her hair, her cheeks, her nose, her mouth, everything!

"What a messy eater and to think he said he'll practice being a girl." muttered Sasuke.

"Didja jusht shay shumthing, Shashuke?"

Sasuke rolled his eyes and grunted. Leaning forward, Koharu takes her advances to Sasuke. Batting her eyelashes and making her pouty chocolate filled lips. Koharu moves forward determinedly, only to find a table napkin tossed at her face.

"Clean yourself up, moron. You have chocolate all over you. Usuratonkachi."

"Hey, don't call me that! Teme!"

"Take a shower. You're all dirty and sticky."

Shocked that her advances didn't work, Koharu snatched the table napkin away from her face, growling, she stomped off to the bathroom to take a shower. Muttering about 'stupid clean freak bastards'. Shaking his head, Sasuke frowned at the mess Naruto made, growling, he decided to clean up.

Thirty minutes passed… Then an hour… two… three… Sasuke was pissed! How long does that girl shower?? It's been THREE FREAKING HOURS ALREADY!!! He already finished his book (to pass time, he read the book again.) he already washed his dishes (which is only a mere teacup), and… Well, there's nothing else, most of time was consumed by his reading.

Wondering what took the blonde long, he decided to take a look. Climbing up to his room, he heard soft snoring. Opening the door, he saw the door of his bathroom wide open with a bathrobe hanging on its knob. Grimacing at how even changing clothes, Naruto can be so messy. He went inside his room and found Koharu's sleeping form on his bed already dressed, it's kind of weird to see a girl in your bed. Mostly it was always Naruto or… well, it's always Naruto.

The now setting sun reflected from the glass doors of the balcony gave Koharu a gentle glow that even Sasuke took a double take just to check if that person sleeping there is actually Koharu. But, it's not… It was Naruto…

Mesmerized by the view and realizing that it's gonna be dark soon, Sasuke just stood there quite unsure of what to do. How could Naruto look so charming even when he's sleeping? Staring at the boy, his feet unconsciously walked towards him. Realizing what he had done, he just sat on the corner of his bed and stared at the sleeping boy.

"He just slept earlier, and now he's still sleeping. That is just so you Naruto…"

Sasuke smirked, he knows that even that boy is the most energetic person you ever knew, you will be surprised that he's favorite hobby aside from eating ramen is sleeping. He's like a lazy energetic fox. But, from the looks of it, he's a lazy, energetic, cute and a very charming fox.

He drew his attention to the rising and falling of Naruto's chest, tracing Naruto languidly with his eyes, he found that the blond did develop a very nice body, a result from all those rigorous training and missions. Looking up at the blond's face, he was taken aback by a pair of blue eyes staring back at him. Flushed that Naruto caught him staring, he thought of a good excuse but found none. He's a genius, darn it!

Naruto shuffled a bit rising up groggily to sit up straight. Rubbing his eyes to get rid of sleep he saw someone sitting in front of him. His eyesight is blurry so he couldn't make out who it is, but judging from the dark hair and the black shirt, he recognized the person.

"Sasu-…Sasuke?" his voice was cracked a bit but the person in front of him seemed that he heard his call.

"Yes,dobe?" the answer seemed shaken but Naruto ignored it, must be that he' still sleepy that he's hearing is kind of off the wall.

Naruto wanted to retort of being called a 'dobe', but he yawned instead making his blue eyes glossy with tears. Sasuke stared at Naruto in awe but hid it behind his stoic features while he looked at the now stretching blond. Stretching upwards, Naruto's shirt raised up a little slightly showing his nice, toned and tanned stomach.

Sasuke tried to divert his eyes away from Naruto but found himself staring again. Naruto rubbed the sleep away from his eyes again but his sight is still hazy.

Blinking a few times, his eyesight is now clear and the first thing he saw was Sasuke looking at him with a slight blush on his face.

"Sasuke? Are you alright? You're kind of red."

"…"

"Sasuke?"

Remembering that he had to make Sasuke fall for his charms, Naruto changed into Koharu quickly. Seeing that Sasuke is still inside his own little world, Naruto decided to grab the opportunity. It's not usual to see the Uchiha looking quite vulnerable.

Crawling closer to the Uchiha, she made his way towards him and rested her forehead on Sasuke's forehead.

"Ne, Sasuke-koi… You don't have a fever…" said Naruto in his most girly voice, batting his eyelashes as an added effect. He felt Sasuke tense up and he smirked victoriously thinking he successfully charmed Sasuke.

Meanwhile, Sasuke's mind went blank after he saw Naruto stretch adorably. However, he regained his self awareness back when he felt a warm thing touch his forehead. Blinking a few times he found his sight blocked by something or someone. He realized it was Naruto so he tensed up a bit but, when he heard Naruto's voice, he knew Naruto changed into Koharu. Which piqued his interest why Koharu is kind of, well if you look at it, she looks like she's just being clumsy but from Sasuke's previous experience about Naruto's girl transformations… this kind of thing is somewhat flirting in Naruto's book.

Pulling himself away from the blonde, Sasuke leaned slightly towards Naruto who is now Koharu.

"Well, as much as you hate it. I'm perfectly fine my dear." said Sasuke while his arms encircled the thin waist of the blonde. Looking at Koharu he smirked a little and pulled the girl into him. A small 'eep' came out from a Koharu as she landed on Sasuke's lap.

"Now tell me, Koharu. Why are you flirting with me this whole afternoon?" shocked by Sasuke's question, Koharu tried to escape Sasuke's hold but he just won't let go.

Sighing, Koharu bit her lower lip while thinking of an excuse but decided to just tell the truth.

"Well, you said I have pathetic charms so I just want you to fall for me and take back what you said. Teme." Crossing her arms over her chest, she looked like a pouting six years old who was forbidden by her mother to eat ice cream.

"Hn. Idiot."

'So he was just teasing me huh? I thought there was really something's wrong with me earlier… Getting troubled and all…'

Wanting to get back at Naruto, two can play at that game so Sasuke tightened his grip on Koharu. He looked at her blue eyes and smiled. Koharu was caught off guard by that sudden breathtaking smile that she kind of lost her balance when Sasuke pulled and landed straight on Sasuke's chest. Clouds of smoke covered them for a while and when it cleared, there stood Naruto on his original male form looking red and huddled in Sasuke's arms.

"Naruto…"

Naruto's heart quickened, how could Sasuke say his name in such a gentle but seductive way! Trying to free himself from Sasuke's hold, he heard Sasuke call his name once again.

"Naruto, if you want me that much. Then, who am I to decline such an offer?" Smirking, Sasuke cupped Naruto's chin upwards and leaned in slowly.

Warning signs flashed inside Naruto's mind as he panicked. From what he sees now, Sasuke is going to kiss him and his heart is beating so hard he can't breathe. One thing to do, he must escape or else he really doesn't know what to do. His plan backfired!

"Le-let go!" Naruto pushed Sasuke off him and ran towards the door. But, Sasuke was quick and grabbed Naruto's wrist which stopped the blond from running away. Naruto turned around looking all flustered making Sasuke let go, surprised at the blonds' reaction.

"Where are you going?"

"Home!"

And with that, Naruto ran.

"Dobe, that was just a-…

joke…"

Sasuke didn't have time to finish what he was saying because Naruto was nowhere in sight and all he could hear was running footsteps and the slamming of the door.

~Owari~
