Chapter 13: Heading Out to Orochimaru, FINALLY!

Naruto begins to grogilly open his eyes, feeling utterly exhausted, he began to leave the warmth of the bed sheets, shivering at the cold breeze. He walks up to his mirror, then stops at the sight of his scar, he lifts his hand to the reddened flesh thinking of the night in the bathroom. 'I guess I should forgive Sasuke for last night, he was only curious of my scar, anyone would' he thought to himself.

=Maybe you should just let that fester in him for a while, it was after all insensitive of him= Kyuubi suggested.

'You have been telling me I should just hook up with him already, what the hell' Naruto wondered.

=Yea, well it doesn't mean I don't like to see him suffer, I am a demon, it is what I do best you know?= Kyuubi informed.

'What ever, well I still think I should forgive him' he repeated.

=Don't worry about it, like the kid would ever hate you of all people.=

'Oh for the love of, would you stop SAYING that!'

=You still haven't figured out who he likes have you?=

'No, I have not, and don't you dare say it is me.'

=But you ARE the one he likes, hell I asked him myself.=

'How can I believe you, you said it yourself your a demon.'

=Blame it on your personality and the fact that I live in your mind, I just cannot stand to see you in pain unless I personally cause it.=

'Still, you would do it just to piss me off.'

=Would you just THINK for a second, and not just believe that everyone in the world is gonna hate you, damnit everyone, except the pink bitch, just absolutely loves you, that Hinata chick fucking STALKED you for years for the love of god.=

'But what in all of earth tells you that HE loves me.'

=Think back would you, they may be small but he has shown signs of being fond of you, like the kiss for example.=

'That was an accident, and he was gaging.'

=Yeah, so were you.=

'I was pretending because we were in the middle of class, I didn't want everyone to hate me more for being a gay.'

=And he wasn't? Think if you can remember his face, any small details= Naruto then closed his eyes and thought back to that day.

Flashback

Naruto was just pushed by one of the students in class, he opened his eyes to see the pale face of the young Uchiha. Before the Uchiha's eyes went wide in horror, he saw the pale lids closed, not scrunched but lightly closed, it was only for a short second, but it was there. Then after he pretended to gag, he looked over to see the prodigy with a small smile on his face, then he was being attacked by crazy fan-girls.

End Flashback

Naruto's eyes went wide as he came to his realization, 'S-Sasuke, he-he looked like-like he.'

=Now do you get it?= Kyuubi growled.

'He, he does like me, I think'

=Wanna find out?= Kyuubi asked, as Naruto was gonna answer, the door to his room began to open, revealing the raven haired youth.

"Naruto, I am ready, we should be leaving soon" he informed, as he was about to walk out the door, Naruto called out to him.

"U-um Sasuke?" Sasuke turns.

"Yes?" he asks.

"A-about the person you told me you liked?"

"Yeah, did you find out?" 'Please tell me you did'.

"I don't know, could you tell me about them" he asked nervously, Sasuke smirked a little.

"Well, I knew this person for a while since we were kids I believe, we both knew about the others hardships, but we delt with them our own ways. As we grew we spent more time together, especially after we became gennin, they would always mess something up so I would always have to help them but make it look like I didn't care" he explained with a caring face. 'That sounds like, but then he could mean Sakura' Kyuubi growls 'Hey hey, I said it could be just thinking of the possibilities, wait, he hasn't...'

"You haven't told me the gender" he asks, Sasuke looked at him 'Didn't think he would pick up on that, he has grown, I was hoping to not make it obvious but...'
"He is a boy" he says, Naruto thought all the air in his lungs suddenly flew out 'T-then it-it must be...'

"Ummm, S-Sasuke?" he begins "Is the person you-you like" he swallowed nervously then breathed to calm down. "Is the person you like, me?" he asked finally, Sasuke looked at the blonde as his face began to turn red.

"Hn" he sighed as he smirked "your not entirely right" he informed, Naruto began to panic 'Oh FUCK, I sounded so conceted, I knew he didn't like me, I must have imagined everything, he must have been talking about Kiba or or...' he looked away on the brink of tears. This went unnoticed by Sasuke, he realized what he must be thinking and he walked up to the small shivering blonde. "Naruto" he called the blonde closed his eyes tightly.

"I-Im sorr..." before the blonde could continue he felt a hand pull his face in a the direction the raven was, and a pair of warm lips being placed on his, he opened his eyes to look into deep onyx ones before the pale lids slowly closed while his stayed wide open. After a moment the tall raven pulled away reluctantly not wanting to lose the warmth of the other, as he stared into cerullian eyes. "Wha..." the blonde wanted to aske but was interupted by thin finger being placed on his lips.

"Naruto, I do not like you" the blond was going to question him until he was pulled up into a warm embrace. "I love you Naruto, everything about you, everything you are for so long I have longed for you, it almost killed me to see what my wrath brought to you" he says in a whisper. He then pushed the blonde forward to look into his eyes, "I will not force you, but I will try to prove my love, and hope that you will return my feelings" he says, Naruto looked up at him then lowered his head to look at his chest.

"I-I do care for you Sasuke, but I cannot put my full heart and trust into you, we can start slow and see how that fairs, but what ever happens after that will be proven by how well things go" he says.

"That is all I ask" he says as he pulls him into tight thankful hug, "Now let us get ready to leave so we can go home" he informed. Naruto nodded and began to pack, 'Maybe going back into the past was not too bad, wonder how we are doing right now in the Forest of Death' he ponders as he leaves his (Yes his) blondes room.

Meanwhile (The time may be off, I think Naruto and Sasuke are still unconscious but right now is the scene where they are fishing in the river)

Naruto stands at the edge of the cliff as he dives into the river, he swims around till three fish came up. Sasuke then throws the Kunai to hit all three fish, Naruto comes up for air then he hears Sasuke's voice.

"Come on dobe, do it again, I can eat three fish" he orders.

"Hey why don't you try diving into the water and I will catch the fish" he yells.

"Oh Sasuke" calls the bi-I mean pink haired, no wait yeah bitch calls "I could use one of your fire-balls for the fire-pit."

"Augh, do I have to do everything around here" he groans.

"What was that" the blonde calls angrily, as Sasuke walks by there is a faint blush on his face. 'For once I can thank her for squeling my name, I thought I was gonna jump him, looking at his bare chest all wet and his perked ni...' then Sasuke stopped and slapped himself before he got himself hard... too late. 'Damn, alright alright, umm, Kakashi naked, eww, still didn't work, Sakura naked, yup that did it' then he continued.

Back with Naruto he begins to exit the water, 'Awww, I was hoping to see Sasuke all wet, god why did you give Sakura a mouth' he whines in his mind. At the camp, Sakura suddenly sneezes, 'I must be a popular subject, Sasuke must be telling Naruto how he can't have me, hehe.'

Naruto likes Sasuke bitch!

Btw, I forgot to tell you this before, I do actually like Sakura, but there are a few reasons why I am totally bashing her right now.

One is she was a total bitch before shippuden, and still is kinda a bitch, but she gets ALOT better in shippuden, two is she has to be a bitch in this series.

So Sakura lovers, I am not a total hater, but she is not too bad I think, but I do love Sakura bashing, so do not hate me T-T.

And thank you for the suggestions piratepenguin666, I may once in a while flash to the past Naruto and Sasuke.
