Day 12 - Fear
Naruto ran through the hallway until he reached his own room. As he entered he slammed the door behind him, leaning up against the closed door, panting.
Sasuke looked up from his book and raised a delicate eyebrow at the blond. "Quick," Naruto said, as he locked the door and stepped closer to his roommate, "eat this!" before Sasuke had the chance to react, Naruto shoved one of the cookies in his mouth.
Sasuke coughed, biting down on the slightly salty and sweet cookie.
"Dobe, what are you doing?" Sasuke asked as he swallowed and held the rest of the cookie in his hand. He really didn't like sweets.
"I accidentally ate Hinata's cookies from the oven, so I'm hiding the evidence, so she won't kill me,"
"Sure, eat more of her cookies that will help the situation," Sasuke said sarcastic, handing the rest of the cookie to the blond.
"She won't know it's me,"
"Who else would it be?"
"I don't know…. Chouji?"
"He's visiting his parents, dobe," Sasuke said, turning the page of his book.
"I panicked, okay? I walked in on Kiba and Hinata again," Naruto mumbled the last word as the heat was starting to rise up in his cheeks.
"Haven't you learned anything from the last time?" Sasuke was about to laugh but decided against it.
A knock was heard on the door.
"Oh no! That's her!" Naruto rushed under Sasuke's duvet to hide.
Sasuke rolled his eyes as he closed his book and stood up. As he unlocked and opened the door, his eyes met with eyes much darker than Hinata's pale ones he was expecting.
"Did Naruto eat all of Hinata's cookies just now?" Kiba asked.
Sasuke sighed and moved to the side, "come in,"
The moment Kiba, followed by a limping Hinata got inside the room, they immediately saw Naruto under Sasuke's duvet, still a few cookies in his hands. Crumbs around his mouth.
Naruto jumped up, sitting in the floor and bowed. "I'm so sorry, please don't kill me," He said, trying his hardest not to look directly at any of them, still embarrassed by walking in on them twice.
Kiba walked up to the blond and smacked him on his head, though he tried not to use too much force.
"Ouch," Naruto whined.
"Naruto, those cookies were for the children," Hinata said with a way too polite and stiff smile for comfort.
"Huh? I thought it wasn't allowed to give then sweets and candy," Naruto mused, completely forgotten about the situation he was in.
"Only in the weekdays, we were planning to deliver them in the weekend," Hinata said with a soft voice.
"Oh," Naruto's heart sank. "Okay, I'm sorry Hinata, is there anything I can do to make it up for you?" All four got a déjà vu when he blond said the words, although they didn't say anything.
"You bake a new batch of cookies," Hinata didn't miss a beat, she knew the blond too well.
Naruto's eyes widened, "I have to bake?" Naruto had never baked anything before and was fairly certain that he was not good at it.
"Absolutely," Kiba said with a grin as he was about to help Hinata out again.
"And Sasuke, you make sure it's done properly," the brunette pointed at the young Uchiha with a grin on his lips.
"Hn," was all he replied as he crossed his arms.
Why am I pulled into this - again? Sasuke thought as he looked at Naruto who was still sitting, on the floor.
