Hekki bottom everyone
How is everyone doing? I am feeling a bit shitty lately and there is a lot of things going on around me so I am trying my best to finish all my stories before I start working at my new job which I won't be able to write as much as I usually do.
Reviews:
Mistress-Otaku-Uzimaki-Fox: He doesn't know but I think the separation helps them both in my opinion.
Guest: Naruto is used to getting the cold shoulder from Sasuke whenever Sasuke doesn't want to talk to Naruto but at this point, he is getting emotionally invested in Sasuke so he is starting to get upset with the things Sasuke usually does. He didn't leave without telling anyone because he did say goodbye he just didn't tell Sasuke that he was leaving. I personally think you can give someone the silent treatment and still help them. He was upset because Sasuke didn't want to talk to him. Don't get me wrong I am not siding with Naruto on this one because I think Naruto got irritated way to quickly without listening to Sasuke but I think that's because he likes Sasuke a bit more than he wants to admit to even himself. Sasuke explains that later why he reacted that way to Naruto in this chapter so I won't get into that.
Guest: Yeah it was like a minor breakup but I feel like it was needed so they can realize that they really do like being around each other. Sasuke does have experience and it will be talked about in this chapter so I won't respond too much to that one. Naruto also accepted his feelings easier because of how his family in which you will also read about in this chapter. It was already Sunday when Naruto started to avoid him so it wasn't like it was much and plus after they tend to hang out on the weekends its always Sasuke to not talk to him for a while so it was normal in a sense. When Naruto feels like Sasuke isn't going to talk to him he won't talk back. But if you read the part where Naruto came into the class irritated he still spoke to Sasuke he just was pissed off already. It wasn't because of Sasuke at that particular moment it was over the Gaara situation at home. If Sasuke wanted to talk to Naruto Naruto would have immediately talked to him. I think Naruto is quick to anger because he already knows his feelings for Sasuke. Yeah, Naruto really wasn't mad that morning at Sasuke because he actually had time to think about it when he got home but the second argument was because he was being accused over something he didn't really understand. For Naruto, he doesn't understand other people as much as the others but he still does try for the most part. I think you will see that in this chapter.
Enjoy the chapter.
It has been about a week and a half almost two weeks since Sasuke stopped talking to Naruto and he wasn't going to lie he missed the blonde a lot. He missed being around him and he missed his laughter. All he ever got now was disdain and it hurt him. He hasn't been able to talk to Naruto or even get the chance since Naruto was avoiding him too. He wanted to call him so many times but he never did.
"Sasuke," Itachi called into his room seeing his little brother laid out on his bed playing with his phone.
"Sorry I'm just bored," Sasuke said as he got up.
"Why don't you do your homework?" Itachi asked.
"I already did it all," Sasuke said shocking Itachi.
"You did? Good job," Itachi said sitting on his bed next to his brother. "What's wrong?" Itachi asked nodding his head at his brother.
"I haven't talked to Naruto in a while," Sasuke said not seeing the point in lying.
"Naruto, you really haven't talked to him. Wow, that's quite shocking... I'm not going to lie I thought that kiss was an accident but maybe it meant more to you then you think. What's really bothering you?" Itachi asked.
"I want to talk to him but I don't think he will talk to me if I tried," Sasuke said annoyed looking away.
"You miss talking to him," Itachi said.
Sasuke didn't look at his brother but he wanted to tell someone how he felt.
"I can't talk to him, not after that argument we had," Sasuke said.
"Just go and talk to him. I'm sure he is feeling pretty shitty himself. He doesn't even leave the house anymore unless the little Hyuga girl pulls him out with Neji." Itachi said.
"Really?" Sasuke asked shocked. "He won't even look at me at school and we have class together. I even make a habit to go to the classes he is in to see if he would talk to me." Sasuke said.
"You two should just talk to each other," Itachi said getting up to go to his desk.
"Yeah maybe I will try tomorrow," Sasuke said standing up.
When Sasuke got to his room he looked at the sweater he took from Naruto and couldn't help but think about how he never gave it back to Naruto while Naruto gave him his jacket. He just stared at the sweater that was on his desk chair. He really needs to give that sweater back if he isn't going to talk to Naruto anymore.
The next day when Sasuke got to school he saw Naruto with Neji and Hinata. He was shocked that Kiba and Shino weren't around but didn't say anything.
"You still haven't talked to him?" Jugo asked walking up to Sasuke.
"I am going to try today," Sasuke said quietly and walked into the building.
He felt eyes on him but he didn't look back because he was honestly scared to see who was looking at him. He could only hope that it was Naruto.
Naruto felt like shit. He felt like he lost another friend and not only his first friend but his first crush. He knew Sasuke wouldn't like him in that way but still, he wanted to be close to the Uchiha even if it was just friendship.
Naruto watched as Sasuke walked into the school with Jugo and he couldn't help but want to follow but Neji and Hinata kept him grounded in that spot thankfully.
"I have to go you guys," Naruto said not being able to take it anymore chasing after Sasuke.
Sasuke was already heading into their first class when he caught up to him. Naruto was panting holding his legs exhausted.
'Exercise more,' Naruto thought to himself glancing up to see that he was the only one in the classroom with Sasuke.
Sasuke froze when Naruto came into the room. He could feel his heart beating at a quick pace and he was scared.
"Sasuke, I need to talk to you." Naruto said still panting as he made his way to their desk.
Sasuke bit his lip and Naruto had to look up to not focus on it. Naruto never really ever had this feeling before so he was scared and he didn't know what to do.
Sasuke nodded his head "I need to talk to you too," Sasuke said as Naruto sat down.
"Do you want to start?" Naruto asked.
"If you don't mind?" Sasuke asked.
"By all means," Naruto said.
"I'm sorry, it's just that... Suigetsu kept making comments making me annoyed. I took it out on you when all I wanted to do was apologize for how I acted to you over the weekend after the kiss. I didn't want to argue with you," Sasuke said.
"What was the big deal though that day it happened? It's not like it was our fault," Naruto said confused. "I just don't get why you... cold shouldered me. I don't get things like you do. I haven't had many friends and you forget where I come from. Literally its not a big deal to be kissed or to kiss someone even if they're the same gender," Naruto explained how he felt.
"Naruto your family isn't like mine and not only that we were raised differently. Your family is far more unconventional and accepting mine not so much." Sasuke said.
"Itachi didn't seem to care before he found out it was an accident," Naruto countered.
"He has something wrong with him that can't be explained psychologically." Sasuke said nodding his head.
"That I won't deny but still what did I do?" Naruto asked chuckling but got serious quickly.
"You didn't do anything I was just... embarrassed," Sasuke said feeling guilty now.
"Do you always get upset when embarrassed?" Naruto asked playfully with a small smile that Sasuke found he missed so much more than even he knew.
"I guess when it comes to you," Sasuke said with a smirk making Naruto blush and turn away. "So are we good now?" Sasuke asked.
"Yeah," Naruto said softly as he turned forward in his desk. "I didn't really want to avoid you or stop talking to you. I just didn't know what to say and I was scared that you wouldn't want to talk to me," Naruto said as people started coming in the class.
Sasuke laughed gently. It was so gentle that it caught Naruto off guard making Naruto look at Sasuke who had a small smile on his face as he looked at Naruto.
"I was to," Sasuke said shocking Naruto making him look away quickly.
Sasuke smiled one more time before he started doing his own thing. He found it nice that Naruto chose today to talk to him when he was feeling the same way. It meant that they thought alike and Sasuke noticed that Naruto was really trying to understand him unlike a lot of other people.
"I like hanging out with you it keeps me on my toes and the time that we didn't hang out I was losing my damn mind in my house," Naruto whispered.
"I thought you hung out with Hinata and Neji?" Sasuke responded.
"How did you know that?" Naruto asked shocked.
"Itachi told me," Sasuke said embarrassed to know that.
"Did you ask or did he tell you?" Naruto asked with a big smile on his face that Sasuke was happy about but embarrassed about.
"He told me," Sasuke grumbled.
"Why would he tell you?" Naruto asked laughing now.
"Shut up," Sasuke said his head going down on his desk but Naruto could see the blush on his ears.
Sasuke looked to the side to see the laughter emitting from Naruto and couldn't help but be happy to hear it again.
"Hey, I really am sorry for what happened," Sasuke said grabbing Naruto's hand to get his attention and to stop his laughing.
It was a sweet gesture that no one seen and the two were in their own world.
"I'm sorry too," Naruto said with a smile holding Sasuke's hand tighter.
They let each other go slowly but it was a sweet moment between the two of them.
"How is the tattoo?" Sasuke asked with a chuckle.
"Oh that... my mom was livid," Naruto said.
"What? They all found out?" Sasuke asked shocked his head lifting quickly.
"Okay, I forgot about it and came out of my room with no shirt on and my mom happened to be there." Naruto said.
"Oh dear... tell me more," Sasuke said amused but worried.
"They asked where I got it and I said where but then I convinced them to not shut the business down and then they asked me when I got the tattoo and I told them." Naruto said.
"Was I brought up?" Sasuke asked worried.
"You were but... I lied," Naruto said shocking Sasuke because he knew Naruto never lied for anyone.
"Let's begin class everyone," the teacher said bringing everyone's attention to the front.
Sasuke wasn't listening to anything though he was just shocked to hear what Naruto said and he didn't understand why but he was so elated by it. Naruto lied for him and with Naruto that is a big deal. Sasuke really had the sudden urge to hug Naruto but he composed himself as much as possible.
The bell for the class ended and Naruto smiled nodding off to Sasuke who was taken back when Naruto walked out the door.
"I'm glad you two made up he was really depressed about it," Hinata said.
Sasuke smirked but it wasn't his usual cocky one it was softer almost like a smile. He was happy to hear that.
"Yeah I'm glad too," Sasuke mumbled and got up to catch up to Naruto.
Naruto was already long gone by the time Sasuke got out there and he suspected that Naruto was embarrassed and that he was going to have to catch him when he could later in other classes and at lunch.
Sasuke was annoyed by the time the end of the day came Naruto managed to escape him every single time he tried to catch him. Naruto had no choice at the end of the day because Sasuke was waiting for him at his locker.
"You were dodging me?" Sasuke asked annoyed but he couldn't stop the sheepish smirk that appeared on his face.
"Okay yeah I was, I was embarrassed after what we talked about earlier." Naruto said his hand going in his hair.
"Why?" Sasuke asked approaching Naruto instead of waiting for him to come up to him.
"Fuck... because I don't normally... lie and I know you know that," Naruto said blushing brightly making Sasuke smirk.
"I was happy to hear that you lied for me but I think we have more pressing matters if we're both going to ignore each other every time we get nervous or embarrassed," Sasuke said as his hand pulled on a strand of hair in Naruto's face.
Naruto was shocked but he couldn't ignore the smile on Sasuke's face. It was directed at him and that made him blush more but instead, he hit Sasuke in his side to get Sasuke away from him.
Sasuke laughed pulling Naruto to his locker so they could get going.
"Get your stuff so we can get going," Sasuke said with a smile.
Naruto got his stuff quickly and followed Sasuke out the door of the school as they ran to his car.
"Where are we going?" Naruto asked.
"We're going to hang out without doing any of what we normally do," Sasuke said.
The two did multiple different things and they found they enjoyed hanging out with each other without there being a deal going on. Sasuke paid for them to go bowling and suprisingly Naruto demolished him with getting at least five strikes. It was amazing. Then they went to eat with each other talking about what they did when they didn't hang out.
"Let's not ignore each other anymore okay?" Sasuke said as he pulled in front of Naruto's house.
"You know when I got out the car I thought it would be easier to just ignore you and but it was so much harder than I thought. I was actually surprised I didn't cave before today with trying to call you," Naruto said.
"Me too," Sasuke said and the car got quiet.
The two felt it but before anything could happen Naruto jumped like he was startled and got out the car.
"I will see you tomorrow," Naruto said with a smile making Sasuke smile back but there were questions along with the smile.
"Yeah see you tomorrow," Sasuke said pulling Naruto into a hug. "Don't ignore or avoid me," Sasuke said before even he realized what he was doing.
Sasuke pulled away getting a nod from Naruto and then the blonde ran out of the car and toward his house. Sasuke then realized what he did and blushed bright red but he couldn't help the smile that appeared on his face. Or the smell of Naruto's hair and shampoo.
Naruto got into the house and ran right to Kurama's room running right in the room.
"Naruto?" Kurama said shocked and confused.
"Is Itachi here?" Naruto asked.
"No he's at home," Kurama replied shocked. "What's wrong? Are you on good terms with Sasuke again?" Kurama asked not sure what was happening.
"I like him," Naruto blurted out.
"Yeah I know I am sure he likes you too," Kurama said confused.
"No Kurama I like him as in like like," Naruto said going toward his brother.
"Oh," Kurama said then gestured for his brother to sit down. "When did you realize it?" Kurama asked.
"I noticed it a while back but I realized that it's just getting worse. How do I stop these feelings? I am scared I am going to slip up and tell him how I feel I don't want him to know would if he doesn't even like me back?" Naruto rambled.
"Naruto he already acts differently with you compared to others he hangs out with maybe he does like you and just doesn't know it." Kurama said.
"It's impossible I know he likes girls. Suigetsu mentioned how Sasuke was sexually active," Naruto said.
"That doesn't mean he doesn't like you," Kurama said.
"I am scared that if he finds out I like him he won't be friends with me anymore." Naruto said sadly.
"Is that why you have been getting angry a lot all of a sudden when it comes to him? You got mad about the cold shoulder thing but he does that to you a lot and you usually brush it off," Kurama said.
"Okay, I admit that I overreacted that day we accidentally kissed but he acted like I was the one to plan the kiss." Naruto said.
"Naruto its fine I'm not talking shit I am just telling you that you have been getting mad a lot over him. I think you are going to get eaten alive if you keep this to yourself because this is your first crush," Kurama said.
"What should I do then?" Naruto asked.
"I would say don't ignore or avoid him but put physical distance between you two. If you blush every time he touches you that would be obvious," Kurama said.
"So refrain from physical contact? How do I explain that?" Naruto asked.
"Oh yeah, you two have a lot of physical contact for some reason. I am telling you maybe he likes you too just doesn't know it yet," Kurama said.
Naruto sighed putting his head into his hands.
"You will be fine little brother don't worry so much," Kurama said patting his back with a smile.
He was happy for his brother for many reasons. Naruto never really ever liked anyone and he was happy to know his brother had feelings for someone.
"You will be fine Naruto," Kurama whispered hugging his little brother.
Sasuke on the other hand was just getting home and he couldn't ignore his instincts on why he wanted to hold the blonde. He had the feeling all day and he really couldn't explain it or understand it. He saw the sweater on his chair and grabbed it. It smelled like Naruto still and that made him oddly happy and he didn't understand why. He put the sweater on and fell asleep at his desk as he did his homework.
Itachi walked into his room an hour later finding his brother wrapped in Naruto's sweater and sleeping at his desk. Itachi only knew it was Naruto's sweater because Sasuke didn't make a habit of wearing other people's stuff and he seen Naruto wear the sweater. He went to his brother and started getting him out the sweater until Sasuke swatted him and pulled the sweater closer to him. Itachi just chuckled and let the sweater go and picked his brother up laying him on his bed. As he was walking back to the door he smirked because he just thought of something great turning back to his brother he pulled his phone out and took a picture of his brother. Then tried to pull the sweater away only to take a picture like that.
'Oh this is going to be fun,' Itachi thought to himself leaving the room texting Kurama immediately with the pictures.
Back with Kurama Naruto was sleeping on Kurama's bed curled into his brother when Kurama got the message and he couldn't help but laugh softly not to wake his brother.
"I think I might be right in this situation," Kurama whispered as he looked down at his little brother with a smile.
Naruto and Sasuke were going to work through what they were feeling and they weren't sure what it was going to happen out of this but they sure they wanted to be around each other.
Reviews...
They are both revealing their feelings for each other but its slowly happening. Like I said in previous chapters Naruto already knew he liked Sasuke but Sasuke is a different story because he has never felt what he is feeling before so it's new to him.
I thought the part that was cutest this chapter was when Sasuke wouldn't let go of Naruto's sweater.
What do you think was the cutest scene this chapter?
