Chapter 7
Summary: Naruto and Sasuke have been going out for a month now. Sasuke thought they should go a step further. How you ask, well you'll see.
"Hey Naruto?"
"Yes?"
"I think you should come over to my house and meet people." Naruto looked at him. Then he laughed and hugged Sasuke as hard as he could. Which is not very hard.
"Awesome, so does this mean I get to meet your brother?" Naruto asked excitedly,
"Duh." Sasuke smiled at Naruto and the way he got so excited over the little things.
Of course this meant a lot to Naruto. He doesn't have a mom or dad, or any siblings either. He knew Sasuke's parents died in a car accident when Sasuke was young, but he still had Itachi. Naruto had Iruka but that still wasn't a family. Getting to meet Itachi was like adding a new member to the family.
"So what's the special occasion?" Naruto asked,
"Nothing." Sasuke looked down and smiled.
The day went just like any other. Naruto went to his classes, Sasuke went to his. They sat at lunch together and went to the office at the end of the day together. Now they were preparing to walk home.
Naruto went to put books in his locker when he noticed a note flutter to the ground. Naruto put his books in his locker and bent down to retrieve the paper. He opened to see some pretty hand writing. He knew it had to be a girl's.
Meet me at the front of the school, early. Make sure you're alone. S.H.
Naruto read the note several times before he closed his locker and folded the note again. Who is S.H.? He thought. I guess I'll find out tomorrow. His mood was to great to let anything else bother him.
While walking home Naruto told Sasuke that they can't walk to school together because he was meeting someone there early. Sasuke nodded and kissed Naruto on the cheek in response. Naruto took this as a 'yes'.
The next morning Naruto was up and out the door. He wanted to meet his mystery girl. He had Sasuke but it was still kind of exciting. He also couldn't wait to get today over for the weekend. He gets to go to Sasuke's for the first time and meet Itachi. He gets to meet Itachi's girlfriend, Hana, as well. Nothing could spoil the moment.
He arrived at the front entrance to see that no one was there. He looked around then noticed someone walking towards him. He couldn't tell who it was through the dim light of the early morning. The street light was still on so when said person walked under the light Naruto could see their face.
"Oh. Hi Sakura. I didn't think it would be you to leave me the note." He smiled a little and rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Why?" She asked. Her serious look never faltering.
"Well, um, I didn't think you liked me." He answered while fiddling with his fingers. Sakura looked at him sternly and said,
"I don't like you." Naruto looked at her like he didn't hear her.
"What?" he asked a little nervous.
"You heard me. I don't like you. Why would I, I mean you took Sasuke away. When clearly you don't deserve him." Naruto went to speak but Sakura cut him off.
"He is hot and sexy. You, well your nothing. He deserves someone that will equal his hotness. I wouldn't even mind if Ino-pig got him, she's more of an opponent. Also don't try to deny you're together, I saw you guys hold hands on the way to and from school." She kept poring on the insults. The angrier she became the harsher the insult. Naruto just stood there.
"A guy going out with a guy it's disgusting. You probably made him feel bad because you're a loser so he couldn't say no. You don't even know anything about him. You probably don't even know his birthday is this weekend!"
Naruto felt like the first set of insults were cuts to his skin. Now the others felt like salt being thrown on after. It was true he didn't know a lot about Sasuke. Sasuke isn't one to talk about himself and he and Naruto haven't been together long. Then Naruto remembered the question he asked Sasuke, about what the special occasion was this weekend. That idiot. Why didn't he tell me?
Sakura was still ranting when she ended it with a stabbing sentence.
"You two don't belong together, so save the humiliation and break up with Sasuke." With that she turned and walked away. Naruto stood there not able to move from the hurt. The lights then came on in the school and the doors opened. Naruto ran to the bathroom. I don't want to cry. Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry! He arrived at the bathroom not able to anything but cry. He was thankful that he was early so that his face would clear before anyone saw that he'd been crying. He cleaned his face and left as if nothing happened.
"Naruto, Naruto, NARUTO!" Sasuke shouted causing Naruto to jump.
"Are you ok you have been zoning in and out all day." Naruto smiled at the questions thinking, Sasuke is always worried about me. I must cause him trouble.
"What was it you wanted Sasuke? I'm sorry."
"Are you still coming over this weekend?"
"Yeah."
"Cool, your friends are going to be there too." He smiled. Naruto Smiled back.
"Well here's my stop." Naruto said gesturing up to his apartment.
"Are you sure you're ok?" Naruto looked at Sasuke's concerned face. Don't cry. Don't cry.
"Yeah everything is cool." Naruto lied. He kissed Sasuke on the cheek and went to his apartment. He watched Sasuke walk to the end of the street and disappear around the corner. He then ran to his room where he began to cry.
Naruto woke up the next day and seen the he slept through his alarm. He got up to start getting ready fast when he heard a knock on the door. He ran to open it before the person could leave.
"Naruto? Are you going to my house in your pj's?" Sasuke laughed. Naruto smiled.
"No, sorry I slept through my alarm. Could you go ahead without me?"
"Sure, I mainly came here to see if you were ok. So, I will see you at my place." Sasuke kissed Naruto and took off down the stairs. Naruto stared after. He went back inside and became teary eyed. He grabbed his phone and texted Sasuke, even though he just left. Grabbing his coat, Naruto, left his apartment. He didn't worry about what he looked liked, not where he was going.
Later at Sasuke's party, Sasuke was pacing back and forth in his living room. He looked up at the clock. Naruto was to be here half an hour ago. Sasuke paced faster. He has never been this worried. He knew Naruto was late to things, but not like this.
"When is Naruto Supposed to be here?" Hana asked coming out of the kitchen. Sasuke never stopped pacing.
"He was to be here half an hour ago." Sasuke paced some more not even noticing his brothers annoyed look.
"All I know is that if you don't quit pacing you'll wear a hole into the ground." Itachi was already annoyed about wearing a tux. He didn't own many but the ones he did have were so uncomfortable.
"I will not. And I told you, you don't need to wear a tux. Naruto won't care."
"Well excuse me for trying to make a good first impression." Itachi countered, Sasuke stopped pacing and sighed.
"Sorry, I'm just really worried. Maybe he's not coming." Sasuke looked out his living room window, disappointed. Then Itachi's girlfriend walked in from the kitchen.
"Aww Naruto-kun isn't coming? I really wanted to meet him." Hana complained. She was a fan of Sasuke and Naruto and supported them. Itachi tugged on his collar and said,
"Me too. Damn this tie."
"GO TAKE IT OFF!" Sasuke yelled. He was tired already. Hana walked over to himand tousled his hair.
"It will all work out."
"Yeah." Sasuke looked down at his phone. He noticed that there was a message from and hour ago. It's from Naruto. He quickly read the message with Hana reading over him. What the hell does this mean? Message: Sasuke I'm sorry. I just don't know what to do.
"What does that mean?" Hana Asked as Itachi took his place beside her, in casual close. They both had looks of concern on their faces. Sasuke looked at his phone. He texted Hinata, without answering Hana, thinking she might know something.
Hinata was on her way over to Naruto's after receiving Sasuke's text. His words made her worry. She didn't get Naruto sometimes. He's with Sasuke, what is the problem now? Then she began to wonder if he's sick. With each thought she walked faster till she began to run, like an over protective mom. Out of breath she arrived at Naruto's to see that his lights were off and the door locked. She peered inside and seen no one. He's not home. She fumbled for her phone. She texted Sasuke back and forward the same message to Kiba, Shino, and Shikamaru. Help me look for Naruto. Everyone began their search.
Damn it Naruto, where are you? Sasuke ran up the street to the Ramen shop. Naruto wasn't there either. Everyone searched separately and now in groups. Kiba and Hinata, Itachi and Hana were in groups. Shino, Shikamaru, and Sasuke were going separate, hoping to cover more ground. They have been searching for hours. Checking every place twice, still coming up with nothing. Sasuke was worried that Naruto might have left the village, and then he had a thought. He texted the others, their answers coming back 'No.', Sasuke took off to the school. Please be ok. Please be ok, please be OK! Sasuke repeated in his head, while his speed increased. He came up to the school to see it locked. He knew Naruto couldn't get in without a key and Sasuke was the only one with a spare, considering he was the student body president. Sasuke continued his run up the road to the park that was near.
He ran to the edge where the fence began and decided to jump it. He ran through the empty baseball field, past the soccer goals, and up to the swings. Every time he saw Naruto before going to ball practice he was sitting on a swing. At this time all of them were empty, but Sasuke remembered one time when a kid on his team hit a home run with their only ball. He offered to go get it and stumbled upon a small clearing, not far from the original swing, back in the woods. He saw Naruto sitting on the only wood swing, attached to a tree, in the park. Naruto was looking up at the sky and, to Sasuke, looked peaceful.
Sasuke went over to the clearing remembering exactly where it was. He stumbled out of the bushes and into the clearing. A certain blond haired, blue eyed boy stared up at the sky. Oblivious to Sasuke walking over to him. Sasuke came up behind him and heard the sniffles of an earlier cry fest. Sasuke took a deep breath trying to calm his shot nerves before he spoke.
"Naruto?" He spoke softly, careful not to scare the poor boy even more. Naruto jumped none the less. His head turned around so fast it looked like it would snap itself. Noticing every inch of the blonds face. Anger quickly rose in his body making him want to erupt when he saw Naruto's sweet feature's covered in salty tears. Tears I could have caused, he thought.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying? Man, you scared the shit out of everyone!" Sasuke caught his voice before it went up anymore. Naruto just looked at him and lowered his head. Going to the front of Naruto, Sasuke kneeled down.
"Naruto, what's wrong?" Sasuke lifted Naruto's chin so their eyes would meet. Naruto's eyes filled with tears once more. His shoulders shook as he explained,
"I'm not good enough for you." Sasuke looked at him dumb struck.
"What are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about how your too good for me. My grades are average, sports aren't my specialty, and EVERYONE loves you."
"I'm not perfect. Naruto I-"
"NO! Don't try to explain anything; it would just hurt me more. Just please tell me that you didn't go out with me because you couldn't say no." Naruto sobbed, He put his head in his hands.
"Naruto look at me." Sasuke removed Naruto's hands from his head.
"What brought all this on?" Naruto took a deep breath but still cried when he explained.
"We hardly know each other! I didn't know that your birthday was this weekend. Why didn't you tell me? Sakura made me sound horrible when she-"
"Sakura? Is she the one who started this?" Naruto nodded. Sasuke pulled Naruto into a tight embrace.
"I don't think about our differences, Naruto. Also we haven't been together long enough to REALLY know each other. And I can say no any time I want." Naruto looked up, tears flowing down his face. Sasuke smiled at his cute Naruto.
"So do you think we should break up?" Naruto whispered. Preparing himself for heart break.
"Hell no. we just need to get to know each other. And we'll start by meeting my family." Naruto smiled. Sasuke really is too nice. He and Sasuke stood up and began walking away. Sasuke stopped and pulled out his cell phone. Naruto looked at him with a confused look; Sasuke only smiled and kissed Naruto on the lips.
Hinata felt her Phone vibrate in her pocket. She pulled it out and looked at it. Kiba noticed her sigh in relief and smiled a wry smile.
"Sasuke found Naruto. At the park of all places." Kiba sighed in relief as well.
"I'm glad he's ok. What's wrong with that idiot?"
"I don't know, but I intend to find out. Thanks for helping Kiba." Hinata stood on her toe's and kissed Kiba on the cheek. He looked at Hinata and they blushed together.
"So, Hinata, do you want to go to Sasuke's party with me?" Hinata looked excited. She flung her arms around Kiba.
"Of course! I've been hoping you would ask." Kiba seemed dumb struck until Hinata kissed him again. He decided to kiss back but on the lips. This took Hinata be surprise, but soon she was smiling into the kiss. After they separated Hinata grabbed Kiba's hand and ran to Sasuke's house to join everyone.
"Everyone here now?" Hana asked glad everyone was safe.
"Yes. Thanks for the dinner Hana-Chan." Naruto thanked,
"It's ok. I'm glad you're ok, oh, and call me Hana. Hana-Chan sounds weird. She smiled. Sasuke leaned over and whispered,
"She would know all about weird."
"What was that?" Hana asked obviously irritated. Itachi came up behind her and wrapped his arm around her.
"I'm sure it was nothing." Everyone laughed. They talked, played some lame games, and ate some food. Hinata asked Naruto what happened but he wouldn't say. She asked Sasuke then, he explained about Sakura and her running her mouth. Hana overheard the conversation.
"Ok. Where is this girl?" Hana asked with fire in her eyes.
"Yeah it's time to kick some ass!" Hinata put in while cracking her knuckles menacingly. Naruto seemed worried when he found out they knew. He looked at Sasuke for assistance but it seemed Sasuke didn't care if they did. Itachi stepped in then,
"Hana you can't. You may look young but if you fight a young girl you will be put in jail."
"With Naruto still going out with Sasuke, Sakura will be emotionally upset.." Shino pointed out.
"Yes, she's already been beaten and lost." Shikamaru stated. This calmed Hana and Hinata. Hana sat next to Itachi and Hinata next to Kiba.
"By the way are you guys going to be at Sasuke's party tomorrow?"
"We are but I don't know about Naruto." Shikamaru answered. Hana was disappointed.
"Well he's going to have to." Hinata stated. Naruto looked horrified.
"Why? You know I hate big groups!"
"Well remember the little comment you made. The one where you would join a big group when I had my first kisses."
"Yeah, so what about it?" Naruto looked at her as she smiled and leaned against a blushing Kiba. Kiba smiled, and then it dawned on Naruto.
"No way, Kiba, Hinata?" Hinata smiled and nodded her head,
"He asked me to Sasuke's party too."
"I'm screwed." Naruto sighed and put his head down in defeat. Sasuke laughed at Naruto's choice of words. He put his arm around Naruto reassuringly.
"Don't worry I'll be there and so will your friends."
Akiko: Thanks Hana for joining us.
Hana: You're welcome. People are probably wondering who I am.
