-1Taku: I'm on a roll this week! This'll be my fifth chapter uploaded in less than four days. O.o

Naruto: Shut up!

Sasuke: Na-Naru-chan?

Naruto: He made us leave when it was getting good!

Taku: I didn't want you two screwing in the middle of my room!!!

Naruto: Well thanks to you we didn't get to finish cause I lost my mood!

Sasuke: Dobe, you didn't lose your mood, you fell asleep as I carried you.

Naruto: Yeah but that wouldn't have happened if he wouldn't have made us leave!

Sasuke: Wow…you actually made a good point.

Taku: Sasuke, help me out here! We've both seen what he can do when he's sexually frustrated!

Naruto: I. Am. Not. Sexually. Frustrated!!!

Taku: Shit…

Sasuke: X.x You know you're a dead man now, right?

Taku: -whimpers and begins to write will- Yosh…

Disclaimer: The only part of Naruto I own is his non-existent brain.

A/N's sorry note: To everyone that's still reading this, I'm sorry it's repetitive!! I kinda ran out of ideas and stopped writing the chapter half-way through and came up with the other half off the top of my head. It's like a review and a filler…

Chapter 9- Happy Birthday To You pt. 3

As we hold each other and stare deeply into the other's eyes, I let him go. No, he vanishes. Everything around me goes dark and I'm left. Standing alone in the darkness that surrounds my being. This can't be! Where did everything go? What the fuck happened? I run. It doesn't seem to matter though. No matter what it feels like I'm running in place. I stop and look around. There's a voice now. Yes, it's faint, but it's here. Who is it? Oh how it sounds familiar. I begin to run again, looking for the source of the voice. It seems tat the farther I go it gets louder. Still, I can't quite make words yet. Though now I can tell it's a males. He sounds a lot like somebody too… Why is this taking so long!? I don't even know where I'm going! God, if this is a dream…please wake me up!

Sasuke…

I hear my name being called.

Sasuke…

There it is again! Suddenly, I am violently thrown onto my side.

Sasuke?

The voice sounds worried now. Almost in a panic. Heh, reminds me of Iruka.

Sasuke!

Gosh, could it get any -ahhh, where'd the orange come from? In front of me is an orange blur not more than twenty feet away. Or at least where twenty feet would be if I wasn't in this place. I get back up and run to it. As I get closer it forms into a body. With yellow spiky hair, deep blue eyes that could drown god himself, and a slim, tanned framed body. Naruto? My brain asks as I stop in front of said blonde. I stare at him. Nothing about his appearance seems strange, yet I feel as if something is wrong. Finding my voice for the first time in what seems like forever, I speak.

"Naruto, what's wrong?"

His stare is distant and full of confusion, while his facial expression is blank as a white piece of paper.

"Why…why choose me? He questions. Sadness replacing blankness in those beautiful cerulean orbs.

Sasuke!

The voice calls out. "Hang on a minute!" I call back. "Naruto…"

"Sasuke, why me? Out of every we know, you want to be with me? Why? I mean, I'm a complete loser, a retard who can barely pass as a ninja, I'm a-"

"NARUTO STOP IT RIGHT NOW!!!!" I shout out in anger and close to tears. "Yes…you can be stupid sometimes. But you're also totally beautiful to me, have a wonderful personality, despite the ramen obsession, and no matter what happens you still have the greatest outlook on life. It's way more amazing then anyone else's. Even though you get shit-talked by the villagers and cap almost every day, you push through. You live and make due with the struggle." I say getting really teary eyed and losing all anger in my voice.

Sasuke, can you hear me?

"Yes already! Shut up for a bit!" I call out before returning to Naruto. "And not to mention…" my voice gets lost.

Sasuke, listen to me right now!

The voice cries out again, almost frantically. I try to speak again, but can only mouth the words I've longed to say to the blonde in front of my eyes. Naruto disappears again. So do I. A brightness fills my field of vision. Rolling over, I cry out in frustration.

"I never got to tell him how much I love him!"

"…Never got to tell who, Sasuke?" the voice asks calmly now.

"Naruto…" I reply while rubbing my eyes to quickly get the tears to go away.

Then it hits me. It's Iruka's voice. The whole time it was Iruka who was calling out my name. He was trying to wake me up. So…it really was just a dream. No…a nightmare…

"What was that, Sasuke?" He asks again.

"I never got to tell Naruto why I love him so much…" I mumble out rolling into my pillow.

"Kakashi, we need to talk. Now." Iruka says angrily.

Didn't this just happen? Am I still asleep?? I ask myself while the two adults walk outside my room. I try to sit up-well more like trying to wake up fully in general. Remembering this part from my dream I sit back and wait. After a few seconds of stretching I get to the door. Pressing my ear against it I hear what I thought I'd hear.

"-hasn't been giving Sasuke the time of day away from training and missions." and after Kakashi finishes they head downstairs.

By this point my head's going crazy. Hurriedly I go to my window. Sure enough there's the picture fragment of Naruto's beautiful face. Considering this to be a little much I plop down on my bed and ruffle my hair up. Ok, by this point I was getting ready to leave. So is that what I should do? No, not from the village…just to Naruto's party. I'll leave Lucy and Ricky a note. I think to myself as I get up and change. Before I jump out my window I make sure I grab his gift and a pen and paper. Unlike my dream I don't just appear at his house. No, I have to endure every second that goes by. Every second means I'm that much closer to finishing my dream. Only, in real life.

Finally, after what seems like the longest walk of my life I am in front of his place. Earlier then last time too. Everyone's in the living room goofing off. He is so hilariously stupid. I think watching Naruto dance with no rhythm or care. That's one more thing about the blonde I love, his ability to be so carefree yet serious at the same time. I set myself under the street light getting ready to write the note. It hits me. I don't know what I wrote in my dream! The wrong thing could keep them together…

Deciding to wing it after debating for two more minutes on what to write I put down:

Naruto, I love you. The kiss back three months ago wasn't an accident, but it wasn't supposed to happen then. Now you hate to be near me and it's all my fault. You and Kiba…you make a good couple and I'm not happy to say it, but I'm happy hat you found someone for you. Hopefully you and Dog-boy will put these to good use. Happy birthday Naruto.

-Love Sasuke.

After I check it over, I put it underneath the gift and walk away. I could have knocked on the door and ran away, but what would the hurry be for? He'll have Kiba looking for me in no time. If everything happens like the dream anyways.

A short walk later and I'm at the part. Only…no one's here. I look where Iruka should've been standing and he's not there. There's no way they're still at the house fighting. I woulda thought they'd be here by now. Or is it just that I'm early? A few feet away is a bench, now my destination. Sitting down, I take my backpack off and drop it next to my feet. I seem to be waiting forever. It's not exactly warm this time of night either.

Was it just a dream? Am I that stupid…to think that it'd actually come true? But what about Kakashi and Iruka's fight?? Was that just a coincidence? I just want a sign, something-anything to let me know everything I'm doing is right!!

"PLEASE JUST SHOW ME THAT I'M NOT FUCKING CRAZY!!!!" I shout out so loud I hear birds in nearby trees fly away.

"Sasuke, why do you think your crazy?" comes a voice from behind me.

Out of reflex I stiffen up at first. At hearing the voice a second time I wish I wouldn't have.

"Jeez, Teme if I would've known you'd be so tense around me maybe I shouldn't have wasted my time. …I guess you didn't mean what you meant in the note…"

"Naruto, wait!" I say, probably sounding desperate.

Quickly, I jump up and sprint over to him and wield him around to face me. Hurt and betrayal cover his features. Good job Uchiha. Way to make him feel wanted.

"You just took me by surprise, that's all. How'd you know I was here?" I ask, trying to sooth him.

"I um….asked Kakashi. Iruka and him where on their way here looking for you. They should be here any time."

"Where they still arguing by any chance?"

"Not a whole lot, why? Is that why you came here?" he asks me, staring me down. I almost immediately look at the ground. It's too hard to look into his eyes and not want to reach out and pull him towards me.

"Ye-yeah…that's the first time they've fought for a while and it….it just got to me. Fuck it's cold." I say slightly shivering.

"Here, take this," Naruto says as he unzips his jacket and slides it over my shoulders. "It'll warm you up."

"Naruto…why?

"Well you said you were cold stupid."

"No…I mean, why are you here? Why now, after these past few months of ignoring me and shit? Why aren't you back at your place with Kiba?" I almost spat out the last one but kept it controlled.

He takes a while to answer. As if he was deciding on what he was going to say to me. His hand goes inside one of his pant pockets and he pulled out my present for him.

"After…everyone left Kiba found this on my doorstep and over-reacted a lil' bit."

"A little bit? What'd he do?"

"Well after he read the note and opened it he got really upset at you for trying to win me over. I tried to calm him down…then we both said some things and I basically said I didn't want to be with him anymore."

"Naruto, I wasn't trying to win you over. Those rings-"

"Yeah, I know they were for Kiba and me. Don't worry about it. I don't think we would've lasted long anyways. He's too prude."

"What!?" I blurt out.

"He would never kiss me or anything. I always had to beg him. The closest we got to feeling each other up was when we hugged and crap."

"Woah….who woulda thought. Naruto. Konoha's goofiest lil' pervert."

"-gasp- Shut up Sasuke. At least my name doesn't have 'uke' in it!" he laughs out at me.

"Oh, I can show you how much of an uke I can be dobe." I say stepping closer to him.

"Really now? I was always under the impression you were a cold distant teme that hid his emotions." the beautiful blonde in front of me says while too, stepping forward.

"Well…for you…if you'd let me…I could make an exception or two…" I whisper to him so he could barely hear and had to lean in.

"Hmmmm, so I take it this isn't the only thing you wanted to give me for my birthday?" he asks, laying his fox grin across his smug little face.

"That's only the first half. Here's the second." I finish with pulling him towards me and pushing my lips down onto his.

A passionate battle ensues. He willingly opens his mouth and uses his tongue to teasingly guide mine into his cavern-like mouth. Playfully, we wrap our tongues around the others fighting it out. He loses and I dive my tongue back into his mouth while he sucks on it. This seems to go on forever until we're forced to break apart due to lack of oxygen.

"Heh…

"Heh heh…wow"

"Sasuke…

"Yeah?"

"I just want to say I'm sorry for what I put you through. Kiba and I…that was to piss you off. I mean, you always are mean, rude, selfish, and constantly showing me up. Then out of the blue you kiss me. It just took me by surprise…Then when I stopped talking to you, Kiba fessed up that he liked me too. I was like in heaven for some reason so I said yes. But whenever I was with him my mind always drifted back to you and it didn't feel-"

"Right?"

"…Exactly."

"Dobe, I don't care. Just tell me you like me back and kiss me again and I'll let everything from back then go." I almost beg him, knowing that he'll do it even if I hadn't asked.

"I think that works. Sasuke Uchiha, I Naruto Uzumaki, like you very much!!!" He shouts out triumphantly.

We both laugh and then I pull him into another mind blowing kiss. This just seems right. Him and me. I feel his arms wrap around my waist and I wrap mine around his neck and tilt my head more.

"Is this why you weren't in your room earlier? You came to the park to make-out with your teammate?" I hear Kakashi's voice say.

Just when I was about to step it up a notch too. That sonofabitch! He always ruins the moment. Naruto and I break away, both blushing quite noticeably. Ahead of us Kakashi and Iruka advance towards us.

"Fuck, Sasuke, are we in trouble?" Naruto whispers to me.

"Well, I don't know about you, but Sasuke has some explaining to do." Iruka says, border lining between angry and relieved.

"Didn't you guys get my note?"

"What note?" Iruka looks puzzled.

"I left it on my door. How could you not see it?"

"Kakashi went upstairs first….You didn't tell me there was a note?!"

"Aheh….well ya see-"

"Kashi-kun, just be quiet. No sex for a week." Iruka states bluntly.

"What!? That's not fair, I didn't think it was important!"

"And yet you calling out 'Sasuke's gone, we need to go find him!'. Yeah mentioning a note woulda been nice instead of making me worry all this time!" Iruka shakes his fist at Kakashi threateningly.

"Aheh…right, who wants to go home and eat dinner?"

Taku: Wow, I think that that's quite possibly the worse cliffhanger ever.

Naruto: Thank you very much. -licks ice cream-

Taku: Heh…any time. Just don't ever scare me or Sasuke like that again.

Naruto: I don't know what you guys freaked out about. Me with a chainsaw isn't that scary, is it?

Sasuke: Naruto, if you EVER pick up another chainsaw I'll never give you head again.

Naruto and Taku: WHAT?!!?!?!

Taku: Don't you think that's going too far? I mean, that's one of the best part of being an uke!!

Naruto: Ye-yeah listen to him, he makes a good point!

Sasuke: -bursts out laughing- You guys are so gullible. That is going to far. Especially when you could get me back Naru-chan.

Naruto: -Throws ice cream and hit Sasuke in the face- That's not funny bastard!

Taku: Wow…you guys need counseling. Badly.

Sasuke and Naruto: SHUT UP!

Taku: Righty than, can do. Everyone hit the cute lil' review button, I gotta go!
