Midnight: MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Bow to me my followers and bask in the glory of my fanfiction! MWHAHAHAHAHA! –Cough- Hehe, been reading way too many Dark! Harry fics. Anyway, chapter 13 is here! And Hari's Harem poll will close in a week. Also I took Kakuzu off the poll cause no one voted for him –holds kakuzu plushy close pouting-. Okay on with the SHOW!

13. Day off
It is July and the weekend and Team Gai's day off from missions and training. So, naturally like any pre-teen, Hari was sleeping in. Or so the newly turned thirteen year old thought. Unknown to the sleeping pre-teen, two mischievous eleven year olds were sneaking into his room preparing to wake him up. (Ever since the massacre, the two Uchiha's have been staying with the Umino's on weekends or when Itachi has an away mission. Sasuke and Naruto had become quick friends and were now best friends. Sasuke protected his long haired friend from bullies and evil jealous fangirls.) Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other grinning evilly as they crouched at the foot of the bed preparing to jump. Unknown to them, Itachi stood in the doorway watching their antics in amusement. The two boys counted silently to three before jumping onto Hari with a strange war cry. Hari let out a squeak (which he would deny later) and fell out of bed tangled in the sheets. The petite pre-teen glared at the giggling eleven year olds. Itachi shook his head and chuckled silently as he walked on.
Hari huffed as he got up off the floor. 'Well there goes my plan to sleep in,' he thought smiling softly as he studied the two children jumping on his bed. Time and family had changed the two boys. Naruto smiled genuinely. The blond grew his hair out to his waist 'to be like his nee-chan.' (Naruto and Sasuke had started calling Hari that much to Hari's chagrin and Iruka and Itachi's amusement.) He didn't wear such a blinding shade of orange anymore. Now he wore black shorts, a pale orange sleeveless shirt with a fishnet shirt under, a black leather chocker and pale orange gloves. Sasuke still wore what he always had. (Midnight: you know what I mean, the outfit from the show when he is in the Academy.) Though he grew his hair out to his shoulders and pulls it back with a leather tie. (Midnight: I decided I would be nice to Sasuke but I will bash Sakura to the ground. I don't like that pink banshee. Does anyone mind if I pair Sasuke with Hinata or would you like it if I paired him with another male (not Hari or Naruto)?) The two boys were thick as thieves and loved to prank people. Sasuke was carefree and open around his (pseudo) family and in private but he kept up an aloof appearance in school and when he was in the village. Hari shook his head at his two little brothers and laughed.
"Come on," Hari said, "Let's go eat then go to the park."
"Yay!" Naruto shouted before dragging an amused Sasuke out of the room to the kitchen.

Hari laughed silently as he watched the two run around the park. Naruto had got Sasuke to play Ninja Tag with him. It was funny to watch. Hari looked around the park and spotted Shino and Lee. He waved at the two boys, who waved back (Shino giving a small wave and Lee waving wildly). Shino was sitting under a tree by the swings and it looked like Lee had just stopped for a break from jogging by the swings. Hari got up and made his way over to his two friends.
"Hey, Lee. Hey, Shino," Hari greeted smiling brightly at the two not noticing the twin blushes.
"Hello, Hari," Shino replied shyly to the shorter boy. (Even though Hari is older he is shorter than most his age and Naruto's age.) (Midnight: Nah, Hari's just short. Plus even in the show Shino is tall for a 12 year old at the beginning.)
"Hey, Ri-chan," Lee smiled blushing abit darker. The three friends talked, Hari not noticing the glares Shino gave Lee or the subtle glares Lee returned, as he talked to them. Watching them from the monkey bars, Naruto and Sasuke noticed the glares though.
"Hey, Sasu, do you think Hari-nee will ever notice them crushing on him?"
"…No," was the grunted reply.
"He is kinda dense. Think one of them will make a move?"
"No."
"Think Hari will realize that he likes them both?"
"No."
"Think he will be able to choose between them?"
"No."
"Should we do something?"
"If they don't."
(Midnight: Sasuke is still the non-talkative person we all love or hate.)
-limit breaker oops I mean line break-
Midnight: Well that was ch. 13. Hoped you liked it. –sigh- Hari is soo clueless. I will update Love and Magic soon though the oneshots for the Percy Jackson xover and the Code Geas xover will have to be re-writen since I am unable to find the file I had them in. I will be posting one-shots soon though as I re-write those two. Take it away Itachi!
Itachi: Review and you will get Pocky. –looks at pocky stash shiftly- Maybe.
