Little Mermaid, Naruto Version

Chapter 12

Previously:

Naruto and Sasuke both escaped from the estate without Sakura or Ino noticing. They are both currently having a boat ride, unaware of their company; one is there to help her achieve her goal and the other is there to ruin her chances with Sasuke.

"I'll make sure you don't win, little princess," Anko smirked.

She had to make sure things went her way, "Make sure they don't kiss."

"Yes, Master," her pets chorused.

Naruto watched the calm lake from her place in the boat. She had half laid out with her head resting on her left arm while her right hand dragged along the water, creating ripples with every movement. It was nice to spend so much time with Sasuke even if she couldn't speak.

"Dobe," she heard him call out. She turned her head and glared at him. When would he stop calling her that?

"It's not like I know anything else to call you by," he defended while sitting down across from her. Naruto splashed him slightly and he slapped her leg.

Guess my name, she mouthed out and Sasuke was able to understand. Ever since the incident at the kitchen he had been paying closer attention to her mouth. He told himself it was so he could read what she was saying but he couldn't help but notice how she would bite at her lip at times, moisten them, and even pucker them while she was pouting.

"You want me to guess?"

Naruto nodded and sat down properly. She placed her arms on her lap and placed her chin between her hands. She wondered how long it would take for him to guess it right.

"Karen?" She shook her head. It wasn't even nice.

"Hime," she shook her head. She was a princess though.

"Chizu," he guessed again and she shook her head.

Sasuke couldn't help but look around when he heard some noise. It wasn't any of the animals and it had sounded like someone's voice. Naruto had also heard the quiet whisper and smiled. Kiba was always there when she needed something and helping Sasuke figure out her name was great. She actually hadn't seen him yet but she could recognize his voice anywhere.

What's the harm in trying, "Naruto?"

She smiled happily and nodded, Thanks Kiba.

"Naruto, that seems to suit you, dobe," Naruto sighed. He had her name already so why did he still insult her. That had been his excuse and she decided to insult him as well.

Bastard, and she stuck her tongue out at him.

"What did I tell you about that tongue of yours," Sasuke warned.

She smirked and did the same gesture once more but what scared her was that Sasuke smirked back at her. Before she knew it Sasuke had attacked her and was now holding her mouth roughly with his hand. She had managed to 'put away' her tongue before he reached her and now he was left with holding her by her jaw.

"Pretty swift."

Sasuke watched as she was holding herself up. He was above her again and he smirked at their position. He could probably get used to this, especially if her reaction was always this amusing. Last time she had been glaring at him and puffing from their run. This time she was blushing and trembling from trying to hold both their weights on her arms. Her eyes were staring into his own and he couldn't help but lean closer to the lips that were only a few inches away. He wanted to taste that appendage that always seemed to insult him and feel that wonderful frame of hers against his own.

Splash!

Before he did anything the boat had tipped over and both of them ended up in the water. He was the first to emerge with Naruto right after him. He looked around and couldn't see anything that would have caused the boat to tilt. It wasn't their fault either because they weren't leaning over it.

He turned back to Naruto and saw her shivering. He heard her sneeze and made that his cue to flip the boat over. He helped her get on first seeing as she was cold and then managed to get himself on again as well.

"We should probably…head back," he whispered and saw her nod her head.

Anko couldn't believe it! That brat was doing better than she expected. She hadn't thought that the human would be bold enough to kiss her but she had been wrong. If her little pets had been a second later then she would have lost her way to power! She had to change this now!

She headed to her cabinet and started tossing potions out. If she didn't act quickly then she would loose everything once more. She had lost her reign of power once by the hands of that brat's mother and she wasn't going to loose again to her. She finally reached the end of her cabinet and grabbed the last potion in there.

"I won't make this easy for you Naruto. Be prepared, because I'll make sure you belong to me," she laughed and began to make her move.

Those pesky girls that she had seen arrived weren't helping like she thought they would. In fact, they were making things turn in favor of Naruto but once she finished this new concoction everything would turn back to her.

She would destroy them.

As they headed back to the estate Sasuke couldn't help but notice how Naruto kept shivering and sneezing. He wanted to already be there so that she would be warmer but if he hurried the rush of air would be bad for her and surely make her sick. He glanced behind their seats and noticed he still had his spare clothes.

"You should take off your dress and put those on so you won't get sick," he informed her while pointing at the bag behind him.

Naruto reached over for the bag and inside was an extra pair of men clothing, "I usually have an extra pair just in case something happens. You should change."

You? Naruto asked.

Sasuke just waved her off and turned towards the road. Naruto just sat there with the clothes in her hand and then she heard Sasuke again, "I'm not going to look so hurry up."

Naruto blushed. She hadn't even thought of that possibility and now that he voiced it she became nervous. She moved to the back and began to peel away at the wet clothes she was now sporting. If he said he wouldn't look then she believed him. He was a jerk at times but she didn't think he was a liar.

As she shed the dress off she took the clothes out of the bag and sprawled them out on the space behind Sasuke. She grabbed the shirt and easily fitted it over her head without having to unbutton more than two of the buttons. After that she stretched out her legs and grabbed the pants.

She fit both her legs into the pant holes and tried to pull them up but she didn't have too much space. She looked around to see where she could stretch her legs up on and couldn't find a place…until she looked at Sasuke.

Sasuke had been trying not to look back at Naruto while she changed. It was actually a hard challenge and that surprised him. He had never had the desire to see a woman undressed but as Naruto changed in the carriage he couldn't help but want to take a peek.

"Oomph."

Sasuke felt himself move forward as two feet pushed up against his back, "Naruto…" he warned.

She pushed once more and he heard as the fabric of the pants moved along her legs. He sighed and stayed firm so that he wouldn't fall forward and so she could properly change into her clothes. After one more push against his back she moved and sat down beside him once more.

He glanced at her and felt himself heat up. She looked perfect wearing his clothes. They fit her big but just seeing her adjust the pants' length and the shirt's sleeves so that they accommodated her own stature made him feel satisfied. He hadn't known her before he found her so he couldn't say this was the first time she had worn another man's clothes but the way she was made him believe it was and that made him feel superior.

He didn't want to think about someone else having touched her or even getting so close to her. He felt weight on his shoulder and noticed her now sleeping face resting on his shoulder.

He didn't move or wake her.

Sakura and Ino had both been looking around for Sasuke for hours now and they hadn't seen him anywhere.

After Kit, Itachi's new guest, had escaped them they had been searching nonstop for Sasuke without any luck. They had asked staff from the manor but nobody knew where he was at. They had even asked Itachi about his whereabouts but even he didn't know. They headed to the kitchen to see if Keiko knew anything about him.

"I'm sorry Lady Haruno, Lady Ino but Master Sasuke has gone out," Keiko said while continuing to clean the kitchen.

"Where did he go?" Ino demanded. Both females had a feeling Kit was probably with him since she couldn't be found anywhere either. Her room was locked but it was too quiet for someone to be there.

"He went out with Lord Hiashi to discuss some business a while ago."

That calmed them both down. If Sasuke had just left then the probabilities of him being with Kit were slim to none. After all Kit hadn't been seen since this morning.

"Tell me about Kit," Sakura demanded. "Is she Sasuke's new fiancée?"

Keiko sighed inwardly at their persistence, "No Lady Haruno. She is merely a guest."

"Yet she is treated like royalty. I recall that dress belonging to Lady Uchiha, Master Itachi's wife," Ino accused.

"Yes, she lent them to her. When Miss Kit arrived she was in rags so Lady Uchiha gave her some dresses from her younger years."

Sakura glared.

"Where did that wench come from?" she demanded.

"I'm sorry. I don't know. Now if you would let me continue with my work," Keiko replied and walked away from them.

Both of them decided to head off their own way. Sakura headed to her room while Ino headed to the living room so she would be the first to encounter Sasuke when he arrived.

When Sakura waited in her room she was constantly watching out for Sasuke. Her room was clearly facing the entrance to the estate, seeing as their was a wall that surrounded the whole village so that the water wouldn't drown them when it became violent. However, as time passed she couldn't help but drift off until she was sleeping to deep to notice anyone's arrival.
