EC: Ok, we'll start now "

Naruto was dressed in his usual clothes and got ready the same way he did everyday. He just ran his fingers through his hair when there was a knocking at the door. Naruto opened up to see Sasuke wearing black clothes and freshly cut hair. It got a little long during the chuunin exams and got it trimmed yesterday in preparation for today's date. Naruto was a bit impressed the Uchiha cleans up well. Naruto smirked. The great Sasuke wanted him, Uzumaki Naruto; it was too funny. It did give him a great boost of confidence to know that two of Konoha's most eligible bachelors wanted and picked him over all the people in Konoha, not to mention the Kazekage of the sand village wanted him. He wondered where they would go today, but was shaken from his thoughts at the present that was shoved in his face.

"Do you want it or not?!" Naruto looked at the small box and tilted his head. "What's this?" Sasuke looked away. "What does it look like stupid? It's a present!" Naruto stared at him. "But…why?" Sasuke looked back at Naruto. "Your birthday is today isn't it?" Naruto rushed to a calendar and saw that it was indeed the tenth of October. Naruto ran back to Sasuke and took the gift shyly and looked at the floor blushing. "Yea, thanks…I…never got a birthday present before…thanks." Sasuke waited for him to open it. Naruto stood there staring at the small wrapped box. "Are you going to open it anytime this century?" Naruto opened the tiny orange box and saw that inside there was a small ring. This ring was decorated with a spiral, and in the middle of the spiral was a small imprint of a fox's head. Naruto smiled at it. 'It's kinda cute…' The fox had red ruby eyes and a small black onyx nose. The rest of the ring was made from silver.

"Wow…this is…thanks…" Sasuke looked sideways at Naruto and turned his head away. "If you don't like it, I can get you something else…" Naruto shook his head. "No it's nice. I'll wear it now." Naruto took the ring and placed it on his middle finger on his right hand. He smiled at it again. He was having fun already. "Hey Sasuke, why'd you get me a ring with a fox on it?" Sasuke stared back at Naruto, not really expecting the question. "I thought you kind of looked like a fox…the whiskers and all…I guess…" Naruto smiled inwardly. 'Of course he wouldn't know about that…' Naruto smiled and gave Sasuke a small hug. He was so happy to have gotten a gift that he forgot himself for a moment. Once he realized what he was doing he pushed away from Sasuke, who at the moment had a blush crossing his face.

Sasuke knew Naruto, and anyone who knew Naruto would know how to please him. There was one key to pleasing Naruto that everyone around him knew, especially those close to him. Naruto smiled and followed Sasuke closely, but refused to hold his hand. They walked onward and Naruto smiled more and more as they neared the ramen stand. However, he frowned slightly when Sasuke passed the ramen stand. He thought for sure that he would get lots of free ramen from this deal. "Hey Sasuke…" Sasuke turned around and a faint smile crossed his face. "Later Dobe, right now I'm taking you someplace different. You'll get ramen later…promise." Naruto perked up and was interested as to where Sasuke was taking him, but the entire way Sasuke remained silent.

They reached a cave and Sasuke looked around. Picking up a thick long stick, he used a jutsu to create fire and burned the tip slightly. He walked into the cave and held out his hand. "No choice dobe, hold my hand or risk falling or getting lost…" Naruto frowned and turned his head to the side. "I'll risk it." Sasuke glared and grabbed his hand anyway. "Don't be stupid…. Stupid!! Don't take unnecessary risks like that…" Sasuke quickly turned away to hide the blush in his face and they continued into the dark tunnel. Naruto began to worry; they were in the middle of the forest and in a deep dark cave. He was thinking that right now Sasuke could do anything to him since there was no light and he had no clue as to where they were. They walked further and further into the cave and it got darker and darker. Soon Naruto couldn't even see his own hands, all he saw was the light Sasuke had, Sasuke's hand holding the stick, and some of his hair.

Naruto could hear many drips and drops coming from water, and noticed that his feet were splashing water as they walked. Sasuke stopped and turned around. Naruto couldn't see his face, but he didn't like how they had suddenly stopped in the middle of nowhere. Sasuke squeezed Naruto's hand tighter. "Close your eyes." "Are you kidding me? It's already dark and you want me to close my eyes?" "Just do it dobe!" Naruto shook his head. "Not until you tell me where we're going!" Sasuke smacked his forehead. "Just trust me, it's a surprise." Naruto decided to go against better judgment and closed his eyes. "Ok they're closed." Sasuke smiled in the darkness and led Naruto further down. They walked into more and more water, and Sasuke finally stopped when the water reached their ankles. Naruto noticed through his closed lids that it had gradually gotten lighter and couldn't wait to see what was causing the light.

Naruto opened his eyes and gasped. There was a beautiful area in front of him. There was a pool of water, and surrounding the water was a bright greenish bluish glow created from the surrounding rock. There were several pointy rocks above them where water dropped into the pool of water creating a soothing sound. Naruto looked all around and saw Sasuke in the glow of the rocks. "Is this what you wanted to show me?" Sasuke nodded "I thought an idiot like you would like the glowing rocks here, but they don't glow outside…so I had to show you in here." Naruto smiled "Thanks Sasuke…its pretty…" Sasuke looked at Naruto and enjoyed the way the lights from the rocks played on Naruto's hair and face. Sasuke smirked and couldn't wait. "There's something even better after." Naruto turned to look at him and saw how close Sasuke's face was to his own. Sasuke leaned in and was about to kiss him when Naruto suddenly turned. "AAH? What's that over there?" Naruto pointed in a random direction, hoping to find something there. Sasuke peered into the darkness. "Is…hey…Someone's there…" Naruto looked at Sasuke. "What?" Naruto was honestly surprised. He hadn't noticed anyone at all the entire time. Sasuke narrowed his eyes. "Come out!"

Neji stood incredibly still behind the large rock. His foot hit a rock after he had twitched. He twitched on reflex because Naruto had pointed him out. Cursing in his mind, Neji held his breath. "Well maybe I was imagining something…" Naruto's voice echoed loudly in the cave. "No no, I heard SOMETHING…" "Aww c'mon Sasuke! I want ramen!! It was probably water or something…" Sasuke sighed loudly. "Okay fine dobe, let's go get ramen…" Naruto whined, "Don't call me that bastard!" Neji heard their footsteps as they left the area. Luckily for Neji, his byakugan was able to detect a shortcut to the surface that Sasuke was unaware of. Neji used the alternate tunnel and got out in the open forest. He would have to walk for several minutes to reach the opening where Sasuke and Naruto would come from, but it was worth it to make sure nothing drastic happened on their date.

Sasuke lead Naruto to Ichiraku's and they sat down at the small ramen bar. Naruto smiled happily at the thought of being treated to ramen because it was a "date". He snickered. 'If I had known I could have gotten free ramen like this I would have done it sooner!!' Naruto's squinted eyes and grinning mouth was a sign to Sasuke "Dobe, what's so funny?" Naruto merely grinned wider. "Oh nothing, I'm just having fun." Sasuke sighed and figured Naruto was happy with getting free ramen. Sasuke looked to his right and saw a young couple next to them who were also on a date. He looked at them and could have sworn they bickered in a familiar way. He shrugged it off and ordered the ramen for himself and Naruto.

Gaara and Neji sat next to Naruto and Sasuke. Neji whispered angrily at Gaara "Why am I the woman?!" Gaara merely glared at him. "Because I'm not." Neji huffed and crossed his arms. Neji mumbled. "Fine as long as you do what we promised!" Gaara rolled his eyes. He would have done it even if Neji hadn't said anything. Although he had to admit he wouldn't have thought of it himself. He would have been more direct than Neji. Sasuke began his move once he had finished his bowl of ramen. Naruto was still eating, consuming his second bowl of ramen while Sasuke began to snake his arm around Naruto's waist. Gaara concentrated and used his sand to break a leg on Sasuke's chair, sending him to the floor before he could get his hands on Naruto. Neji tried not to snicker and Gaara smiled evilly, making sure to erase all evidence of his sand. Sasuke looked around, then at his chair and quickly turned to the so-called "couple" and sneered. Meanwhile, Naruto was laughing at Sasuke, pointing his finger at him at the same time. Sasuke stood up and dusted himself off. He smirked in the couple's direction and dragged Naruto off after paying for the food.

Neji and Gaara knew Sasuke had figured out who they were, but they were more worried when he didn't do anything to them than if he had attacked them outright. The smirk on his face merely caused them more worry. They quickly followed him and hid in the foliage to hide while Naruto was walked to his small apartment. "So now that Gaara's at a hotel it's a lot easier on me. Having the three of you at my house was troublesome…" Sasuke smiled "You're starting to sound like Shikamaru…don't tell me you like him!" Naruto looked at Sasuke as if he had grown a new head. "Sasuke…you…joked?!" Sasuke rolled his eyes. "No I was serious." Naruto chuckled a bit. "Are you trying to be funny to impress me?" Sasuke stiffened and blushed a bit. He looked away "Don't be so full of yourself."

Naruto grinned and finally opened his door. 'Okay so he's a bastard, but it wasn't so bad…' Naruto shook his head. 'Ah I can't think that way! No, I have to focus! I like Sakura-chan!!' Naruto looked up at Sasuke, his thoughts causing him to stare blankly at the dark haired man. Sasuke smirked and leaned in, placing an arm on each side of Naruto, blocking him in the doorway. Naruto snapped from his thoughts only to find Sasuke inches from his face. Turning red, Naruto shouted. "W…What are you doing?!" Sasuke whispered. "Good night kiss…" Naruto's heart pounded and he stood in shock as Sasuke placed his lips on Naruto's. While Sasuke closed his eyes, Naruto's were wide open in shock. The kiss deepened when Sasuke placed his tongue into Naruto's open mouth and placed his arm around Naruto's waist. The kiss ended abruptly when some sand got between them and pushed Sasuke away from Naruto. Sasuke glared in the direction of Gaara and Neji who were currently glaring at the Uchiha. Naruto took his chance to run inside. "Thanks for…er…I had fun see you later bye!!" Naruto rushed the sentence and slammed the door. He stood behind it, his heart still racing and slumped to the floor. 'Maybe this wasn't such a good idea…' Naruto thought as he held his head in his hands. Naruto looked up with a determined look on his face. 'I refuse to fall in love with a man! EVER!'

EC: OH GOODNESS!! It's finally OVER! Ah a little side note by me: The fox ring idea I got cause of a comic I saw where Sasuke hugs a fox, thinking it looks a lot like Naruto, who happens to stumble upon the scene. It's soo funny!! Ah but really this fic was too long cry
