Chapter 13: This Year's Prom King and Queen Are…
Sasuke was sitting in his room wondering if it was a good idea to go to prom. He wasn't in the mood for socialising and all he wanted to do was lock himself away in his room and sleep. It was his mother who persuaded him that it would be good for him to get out of the house for a few hours. Sasuke's father had been working more than usual so he wasn't around much in the mornings either. His mother did the best she could to encourage and cheer him up as she knows how much his new friend Naruto meant to him. He heard a knocking on his bedroom door.
"What is it?" he asked, fussing with his shirt. He hated getting dressed up.
"Sasuke dear?" his mother entered holding a small blue dress flower.
"I aint wearing that if that's what you've come to ask" he said scowling at the flower in her hand.
"But all of your friends will be wearing one. Do you want to be the only one without it?" she said smiling at how handsome her son looked in his suit.
"And how do you know what everyone else is wearing?"
His mother had gotten a call from Shikamaru earlier that day telling her about Naruto's release. He asked her to keep it a secret from Sasuke for now and he requested that he wear a blue flower. Even though she stated that there was no way he would wear it he urged the importance of it. She wasn't sure the reason why but she assumed that if Shikamaru was going through this much trouble to get him to wear it, it must have some meaning.
"Here, it will suit you" she said as she placed it in the top pocket of his suit jacket. "I'm really proud of you, Sasuke. I know how hard it's been this year without Itachi around and your father… well, your father being the way he is. Especially since you lost your friend for a while too"
"I didn't lose my friend for a while mom, I lost him forever" he snapped out, remembering the words Naruto had exchanged with him before he went to prison. "He made it very clear he wants nothing to do with me and to be honest who can blame him"
"Why would you say that?"
"Look at me. He way out of my league"
"Am I right in thinking he was more than a friend?" she asked carefully, feeling glad that Sasuke was finally opening up a little to her. She knew Naruto was more than a friend to her son because they didn't exactly act discrete about it whenever they were at the house but she really didn't mind. She saw how happy the blonde made her son and that's all she ever wanted for him. She never judged someone for their mistakes and their past, god knows her family have done their fair share of those and she just wished Naruto didn't break his heart before he left.
"Listen to me Sasuke. I know how much Naruto means to you and I can't promise you that everything will always work out the way you want it to but I can tell you that I fully believe if something was meant to be, it will be"
"What does that even mean?"
"It's something you have to learn and discover on your own. What I'm saying is, just don't lose hope okay?"
Sasuke sighed and straightened his flower. "You know… there was a time during English class where the teacher had totally started rambling on about their love life. Me and Naruto were texting back and forth making jokes about everything and anything to pass the time"
"Are you sure you should be telling your mother about you texting in class?" she teased.
"Yeah well, I'm graduating now so I guess it doesn't count, right?!" he said, laughing slightly. "Anyways I'm not sure how we got onto the conversation but we started talking about what our favourite things were"
"Sounds like an interesting conversation"
"Yeah. Since he never let me date him, I guess this was the next best thing on getting to know him. That day I was wearing a blue shirt instead of a black one. It was the day where I was in a hurry and I didn't even notice I'd put on the wrong shirt. He smiled at me and sent a text which said, blue is so your colour"
"It's true. I've always told you that you suit more colours than black!" his mother responded with a smile.
"I know it was just a simple compliment but for some reason it made me happy that he'd even noticed. Then I said the most embarrassing thing back…"
"Do I even want to know?" his mother asked, blushing.
"It's nothing like that mom! Jeeze… no I had said, the only reason I'd wear blue on purpose is because it would match your eyes"
"Oh Sasuke"
"I blushed so hard after that, it was so damn lame"
"It's not lame, it's cute"
"I honestly could say anything to him and it wouldn't feel weird or awkward. I felt like I could tell him anything" he said now with a sad expression on his face. He really missed that idiot and he hated that the simplest thing such as the colour fucking blue reminded him of Naruto so damn much. "I just wish he would let me visit him… just so I can see if he is alright"
"Don't worry about that right now okay? Just… try and enjoy your night. That Shikamaru really cares about you too you know that right?"
"I guess…"
"Good. So you wouldn't want to let him down! So turn that frown upside down and just have fun okay?"
"I will try mom. I will try"
Sasuke drove across town on his way to pick up Shikamaru and Kiba. He assumed everyone would be drinking tonight and the last thing he wanted was to consume alcohol and not be in control of what he was thinking or feeling. So the raven thought it would be a good idea to put himself as the designated driver. When he drove through the neighbourhood he slowed down and stopped when he passed by Naruto's parent's house. The neighbourhood itself was quite noisy and he had got a lot of people staring at him with him sitting in an expensive car. It reminded him of the first day he met Naruto and he had driven down here by accident. Naruto had told him not to park his car here because of how rough the place was, that's when they became friends. These last few months had been difficult and he had thought about the blonde regularly but… tonight for some reason he found himself thinking about him way too much. He started his car again and headed to Kiba's.
The boys had spent around 2 hours at the prom and they were just about to announce king and queen. Shikamaru had noticed that both Naruto and Sasuke were in the running for it even though Naruto was expelled, it seemed the prom committee wanted to at least involve the blonde in the prom which had to miss. He thought it was a sweet gesture but he didn't bother telling Sasuke that.
"Have you voted yet?" a student asked as she was walking around with a ballot box.
Taking a look at the ballot paper he noticed something rather odd. "Hey, why is it that Sasuke and Naruto's name are written on the same line? There's only one box for it. Do we have to write the name?"
"Oh! No actually we thought that because if Naruto won he obviously won't be able to accept it so we figured it would be a good idea to put Sasuke there too"
"That… still doesn't make any sense" Shikamaru said scratching his head.
"Well since those two were you know… close, we figured he would want to accept it in his place at least"
"Yeah… you really don't know Sasuke at all do you?"
"Technically it's a joint vote. They both win if you tick that box so it's like, you vote for both of them"
"That's kind of… odd. But then again it's nice of you to include Naruto in this way so I guess I can get behind that. Although if Sasuke and Naruto win, you do know Sasuke will most probably hate the fact that the attention will be on him" Shikamaru ticked the box that was labelled Naruto and Sasuke. He thought it would be pretty funny if they actually did win, although he knew Sasuke would have a totally different reaction.
"What are you doing?" Sasuke asked, coming from behind Shika.
"Thank you for your vote!" She said, scuffling away.
"You voted for someone?" the raven asked, not knowing why the man was bothering with such things.
"Ah… the girl was bothering me it was the easiest way to get rid of her" Shikamaru lied. "Have you… seen the ballot cards?"
"I don't see the point in it. How long are we staying anyways?"
"They're announcing king and queen in about 10 minutes after that we'll head over to Kiba's"
Sasuke nodded. He just wanted to get out of here because for some reason a lot of people kept looking over at him and staring as if they were talking about him. He'd mentioned it to Kiba but he told him they were just probably gossiping about Naruto. Kiba knew it was because Naruto and Sasuke were on the ballot cards but Shika had just told him not to mention it to him unless he saw it.
"Thank you for your patience but we have counted up the votes and we are ready to announce this year's prom king and queen"
"It's so troublesome how seriously these girls take this" Shikamaru whispered causing Sasuke to smile slightly.
"And the prom queen is… Sakura Haruno!"
"Seriously?" Shikamaru said laughing. "Naruto would be totally booing if he were here"
"I thought he liked her?" Sasuke asked.
"Eh, he used to but after she kind of got popular he didn't really care much anymore"
Sakura got on stage smiling feeling all excited. She couldn't believe that people had voted for her. "Thank you so much this is so unexpected" she said as Kiba rolled his eyes.
"She's so full of herself, she knew she was going to win I saw her walk around telling people to vote for her" Kiba said.
"Alright, congratulations Sakura! Now we come to your prom king… and the winner is… Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha!"
"… The fuck?" Sasuke said narrowing his eyes at the announcer who was staring at him with a nervous face.
"Oh shit" Kiba responded, trying to hold back his laughter. "Well go on Sasuke, get your crown"
"Is this some kind of sick joke?" Sasuke snapped not amused at the situation at all.
"It's alright Sasuke, it's just a bit of fun just go on" Shikamaru said, trying to shoo him to the stage. Everyone was staring at Sasuke waiting for him to go up on stage. He felt so humiliated. Why didn't anyone tell him they had put his fucking name on that stupid ballot card and why was it joint with Naruto? It must have been some sort of sick joke.
"C-congratulations Sasuke!" he said handing him the crown.
"I'm not fucking wearing that" he snapped, causing Kiba to laugh very loudly.
"Aw c'mon Sasuke you'd look great in a crown!" Kiba shouted, surprisingly causing the raven to smile. He snatched it out of the announcers hand and walked back off the stage.
"If you don't stop laughing you'll be wearing this crown up your ass, Kiba"
"It is a little bit funny you have to admit. Naruto would've teased you about it" Shikamaru smiled.
"Why did they put our names together. Is someone trying to make fun of me or something?" Sasuke asked, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Nah, I guess it was just because Naruto wasn't able to be here. I'm sure it wasn't done maliciously"
Sasuke sighed. "Can we go now?"
"Sasuke!" Sakura shouted running across the dance floor as the music started playing again. "Congrats!"
"Uh… yeah"
"Come on you have to dance with me!" she said excitedly. Sakura wanted to milk this moment as much as she could.
"Why the fuck would I do that?" he snapped out.
"Uh, duh… the king and queen always dance together"
"Well I'm sorry but I'm breaking the tradition. I'm leaving" Sasuke said, as he stormed for the exit.
Shikamaru and Kiba ran out after Sasuke. He was waiting at his car fiddling with the crown in his hand. "Please let's get out of here before she proposes to me or something" Sasuke teased trying to lighten the mood he just ruined.
Shikamaru looked at his watch. "Come on, we'll head over to Kiba's"
They pulled outside Kiba's at around 9pm. A lot of people were due to flock the place after they had left prom. Sasuke admitted that he was actually having fun being with Shikamaru and Kiba as lame as the prom is, he was glad that he didn't lock himself away in his room to wallow in self-pity. Sasuke locked his car and waited for Kiba to unlock his front door. When he did he walked back down to the steps. It was quiet since they were the only ones here at that moment. Sasuke looked at both Kiba and Shikamaru confused as they both just stood there.
"Um… aren't we going to go inside?"
"Actually, we need to stop by the store to pick up a few crates of alcohol I forgot" Kiba said, standing uncomfortably close to Sasuke.
"Um… alright that's fine. Although I wish you would have told me that before we arrived here, we passed like 30 convenient stores just driving to your house"
"Yeah well… I only just remembered" Kiba explained, getting even more close to him.
"W-what are you doing?" he said as Kiba took his hand, "Kiba that the fuck?"
Kiba pulled Sasuke's car keys out of his hand and unlocked the car. "Actually do you mind staying here? I can just drive to the store with Shika to get the alcohol"
"You're not driving my fucking car, do you even have a licence?"
"Sure I do!"
"Give me the keys, it will take me 2 minutes to drive us"
"Just… stay here Sasuke, we can manage" Shikamaru added.
"What is going on?" the raven asked feeling slightly uncomfortable with the situation. "Are you guys stealing my car or something?"
"No! I just… need you to stay here whilst we go to the store. Someone needs to be here in case people arrive!" Kiba said getting into the driver's seat. Shikamaru walked around the car, patted Sasuke on the shoulder. "Just wait inside, we won't be long!" he said as he got into the passenger side.
"What the fuck? Wouldn't it make more sense for me to drive MY car and for Kiba to stay at HIS house and wait?" Sasuke asked, still so fucking confused at their logic to this.
"We can't have the king running all of our errands now can we?" Kiba teased. "Besides, you've been the designated driver all night, trust us. We won't be long" he said as he quickly pulled away messily, making Sasuke feel very uneasy with Kiba driving his very expensive car. Sasuke was left standing outside of Kiba's alone watching his car been driven away in the distance.
"The fuck just happened?" he said as he walked into Kiba's house. All of the lights were off and the only light that was on was coming from down the hall and through the kitchen. He noticed the back garden was all illuminated with blue and white lights. He had to admit when there wasn't gangs of drunken idiots flying around the place, Kiba's garden actually looked kind of… nice. He walked over and opened the sliding doors to the back garden which were surprisingly open. Sasuke wondered why his parents kept this unlocked. As he walked outside he noticed something at the back of Kiba's garden which he hadn't noticed before. It was kind of like a mini band stand but it was surrounded with plants and lights. He'd never really seen it like this before considering every time he had come to Kiba's there were always far too many people running around. The pool even looked bigger when there was nobody bomb diving into it.
He walked out into the garden, kind of liking how peaceful it was. There were voices that were coming from the front of the house from the noisy neighbourhood but that didn't really seem to bother him.
"Blue really fucking does suit you, Uchiha" a voice said from behind him.
It startled Sasuke for a second and he didn't turn around. But he recognised that voice. But it couldn't be because… that voice… would be impossible to hear. He felt his body go a little paralyzed and he didn't want to turn around. Instead, he had come around to him.
"Look Sasuke, we're matching!" Naruto said as he walked around the still raven close to his face. The blondes blue eyes sparkled against the twinkling lights. The warmth of his presence eased Sasuke out of his stillness as he reached out his hand curiously to touch the man's face, making sure he wasn't just hallucinating.
"Y-you… you remembered that?"
"I remember everything we talk about, Sasuke"
He stroked the blondes cheek with his index finger gently, causing Naruto have instant Goosebumps all over his body. Every time he touched him, every slight bit of contact felt like electricity.
He moved his hand off Naruto's face and brought it down to his chest. "This flower… it's from you?"
Naruto nodded. He knew it was going to take more than just a flower to make it up to Sasuke. But he figured it was a good place to start.
"Sasuke Uchiha… will you be my date?"
To be continued.
