Gomen

After crying over his stubborn seme for what seemed like forever, Naruto glanced at the clock sitting on the stand by his bed. The clock read 12:00 on the nose.

"Almost time for school. Great stuff, not!" Naruto grunted to himself, yawning.

Naruto walked to his bathroom, which was right across the hall, and started to brush his teeth, all the while thinking of how to avoid Sasuke at school. Naruto spit and washed his mouth out, remembering the harsh words of his seme over and over again.

"Naruto, you're taking this thing going on here way too seriously. We're just lust bunnies for one another is all."

I'm not gay…"

Naruto's eyes welled up with tears, but Naruto was able to choke them back. Naruto dried off his mouth with the back of his hand as he walked back to his bedroom to change. Naruto pulled on a pear of worn jeans and a tight black shirt that rose high enough so that you could see the beginning of his washboard abs.

"Yo, Naruto! We're gonna be late!" Kiba called to him, unaware of what happened a little while ago with Sasuke and Naruto.

Naruto waved out of his window at Kiba, only to catch a glimpse at the rude Uchiha standing next to Kiba, his glance to the floor. Naruto jerked his hand back, shaking his head.

"No, you go ahead. I'm gonna be a while here…" Naruto trailed off, turning his back to the two of them.

Kiba shivered at Naruto's cold tone.

"What's his problem?" Kiba asked Naruto's back, raising an eyebrow.

Sasuke's gaze turned to Naruto's back, his eyes lowering at the thought of what he'd said to Naruto that made him leave. Sasuke shook the thoughts from his head, the thoughts still residing in the back of his head.

"Let's go, Kiba. He'll get there sooner or later." Sasuke retorted coldly, making Kiba wonder what was wrong with Sasuke now.

Kiba was about to ask what was wrong with Sasuke, but wasn't able to because Sasuke continued to walk towards school. Kiba caught up, trying to catch a gaze from the sad Uchiha, but to no avail. Sasuke stared straight ahead, hoping that he wouldn't cry over Naruto at school.

"Hmph, like I'd walk with him after…" Naruto cut himself off, wiping his eyes with frustration.

Naruto also remembered the day before, when they made love yet again. The breathless moans coming out of Sasuke's mouth as Naruto ravished him with his tongue. The sweet words Naruto received afterwards as Sasuke drifted off to sleep. The morning conversation…

"Quit that! You're such a baby!" Naruto scolded himself, walking to his front door. Naruto opened the door, closed it behind him and locked it, sticking the key in his pocket as he headed for school.

"Hey, Naruto!" Sakura yelled to him, jumping up and down at the sight of him.

Naruto raised his arm at her, waving slightly. Sakura ran towards him, and then turned around so she could walk with him the rest of the way. When Naruto didn't way anything for most of the walk, Sakura nudged him in the side.

"What's the matter? Did you drink bad milk again?" Sakura asked, tugging on the back of Naruto's shirt when he didn't stop walking.

"Nhn…" Naruto replied, not even looking at Sakura.

Sakura rolled her eyes at the response.

"Jeese, you sound like Sasuke this morning!" Sakura complained, making Naruto stop in his tracks.

Sakura jolted when Naruto looked at her, the coldness in his eyes sending chills down her spine.

"Hey, what's your deal? Did you get in a fight with Sasuke or something? I can't help you if you don't tell me anything!" Sakura yelled, placing her hands on Naruto's shoulders as she faced him.

"Don't…say that name today…alright? I'm not in…the mood to hear…that name…" Naruto asked, continuing his walk.

Sakura shrugged, walking beside Naruto as they neared Kakashi-sensei's classroom. They entered, looking around to see if Kakashi-sensei attended yet. Since there was no sensei period, Naruto thought that Kakashi was just late.

"You sure you're okay?" Sakura asked again, tilting her head at Naruto.

Naruto smiled and nodded, walking up the stairs to sit next to Choji.

"Hey, you don't sit here usually…" Choji pointed out.

Naruto then pointed to the board that read:

Sit wherever today. All we're going to do is have a free day.

Choji let out a quiet oh and walked over Naruto to go sit next to Shikamaru, whom was kissing Ino feverishly. Naruto sighed, putting his feet on the desk and leaning back, knowing that hopefully no one would come sit by him. Sasuke sat quietly by Ino and Shikamaru, getting more and more annoyed with the sound of their lips smacking over and over again. So Sasuke finally decided to move somewhere else. When he spotted an open spot by Naruto, he was quick to take it. Naruto's legs were now under the desk, while his head was in his crossed arms, which were resting on the top of the desk. Sasuke sighed, pulling out a piece of paper out from under the desk.

A/N OMG HOUDINI!

Sasuke then wrote on the paper:

You still pissed?

Sasuke stuffed the paper under Naruto's arm, startling him into sitting up. Naruto read the note and pulled out a pen, writing down:

Yes. So I'd appreciate it if you didn't talk to me.

Naruto passed it back, resuming his position he was in before. Sasuke sighed, looking over at Naruto's back. Sasuke then leaned on Naruto's back, whispering into his ear.

"You can't hate me forever, ya know…you know you want me…" Sasuke whispered, annoying Naruto even more.

"You're the least desirable item in this room, Sasuke. How about you go find another 'lust bunny' to play with?" Naruto stated, looking into Sasuke's onyx eyes with his sky blue.

"That was harsh…" Sasuke retorted, sitting back up and folding his arms across his chest.

"So were you when you said those things. Your words just can't be up and forgotten, Uchiha. You hurt me, and now you're gonna have to deal." Naruto spoke harshly, saddening Sasuke more then he already was.

"Naruto…I already apologized. How else can I prove it to you that I'm sorry?" Sasuke asked, almost pleading.

Naruto smirked in thought. "How about you jump off the school roof? That'd prove it all to me." Naruto requested, tears tugging at his eyes.

"Fine, if that will prove it. I'll do it." Sasuke answered, getting out of his seat and exiting the classroom.

Naruto's eyes widened as Sasuke left the room, making Naruto so nervous that he got up and ran out of the classroom. Naruto ran out to the front of the school, squinting to see if Sasuke was really going to jump off of the roof. Sure enough, Sasuke came into view, stepping onto the ledge with only inches before he'd fall right off.

"Sasuke! What are you doing!" Naruto screamed, tears running fiercely out of the corners of his eyes.

"I want to prove this to you! If this is the only way…then I'm gonna do it!" Sasuke yelled back, walking a little further onto the ledge.

"Sasuke, please! Don't do it!" Naruto cried, his bottom lip quivering violently.

"I love you…" Sasuke whispered as he let himself fall as if he was going to do a belly flop into a pool, the frantic screams Naruto were making getting louder and louder as he neared the ground.

THE END
