Author's comments: The introduction ended up being longer then I expected. I'm still trying to define the personality of the two main characters (Sasuke and Naruto). At least Ino and Sakura are introduced in this chapter, and Tenten is mentioned. Again, thank you Hntaineko for your above excellent English skills!

What is wrong with me?
The door swung open, everything was moving in slow motion. Naruto's heart pounded in his chest, he was both excited and scared with the prospect of who his new roommate was. As the teenager entered the room, Naruto looked him over and felt a slight shiver go trough his body. The boy was dressed in black jeans and a black shirt that hugged his upper body. He had four piercing's in his left ear and dark blue eyes, almost black. His hair was jet black and he was very well built.
Naruto became almost shy, for the first time in his life he didn't know how to act or react. The boy with the ebony hair looked down at Naruto who was still lying in his bed, and gave him a sly grin.
"You must be my room mate...?" He said as he trailed his fingers trough his hair before reaching out his hand. "I'm Uchiha Sasuke, nice to meet you."
Naruto stood up "I-I-I'm Uzumaki N-Naruto." he said, stumbling in his own words as he grasped the hand of the boy in black. His handshake was firm and strong:
Naruto looked him square in the eyes and tried to crack a smile, but was too entranced with what he was looking at that all he managed to do was give a crooked lip. Then he began laughing nervously, as he realized they had been shaking hands longer than necessary. He quickly pulled his hand away and sat down on his bed again.
Sasuke looked at all the boxes in the room "I guess we better start unpacking then?" He walked over to his side of the room and began going trough his things, placing clothes in the cupboard.
Naruto found himself staring at the boy "Yeah, I guess we should..." he began hooking up his computer and sound system. "S-So, Sasuke, what kind of music do you like?" He looked at his new roommate and smiled. This time he was more confident and didn't stumble as much as the first time he spoke to Sasuke.
Sasuke looked at him and giggled "You know, that stutter is kinda cute." Naruto began to blush, when he realized this he quickly turned around and hid his face behind the computer faking having to plug in a cable. Sasuke just smiled. "Well, anyway, I like most music. I really like Linkin Park, Evanescence and other groups like that. But as I said, almost everything goes down well with me." He licked his upper lip and smiled just as Naruto poked his head out from behind his computer at the last sentence.
"Um, I-I like Linkin Park too, I actually have their latest CD, want me to put it on?" What the hell is wrong with me Naruto thought. Why am I stuttering so much around Sasuke. He's a boy for crying out loud.
He put on the CD and turned the volume up. Sasuke just looked at him smiling while continuing unpacking his things. After about an hour, they where both done. They laid in their beds exhausted. Sasuke was looking at the ceiling, Naruto was lying on his side looking over at Sasuke.
"Why am I looking at him like this...?" Naruto thought to himself "He's a guy. A hot guy. But a guy." He shook his head and closed his eyes.
Suddenly he felt something touch his face. "It can't be.,," he though. He opened his eyes and there he was, Sasuke was sitting on his bed looking at the sleeping blond. He was stroking the blue eyed boy's chin and moved up to his hair. Feeling the golden locks between his fingers.
"W-W-What are y-you d-doing S-S-Sasuke?!" Panic struck the boy as he looked at the raven haired boy smiling down at him.
"Relax, I know you want this. I knew it the second I saw you." Sasuke bent down slowly "It's ok, you'll like it, I promise..."
Their lips met, and Naruto was surprised at how soft Sasuke's lips were. He didn't understand why he felt like he did, it was like a warm blanket had just been draped over his entire body. He felt Sasuke's tongue slipping into his mouth as the kiss became more passionate.
Just then he heard someone call his name, his eyes opened wide and he was actually looking at Sasuke standing by his bed looking at him.
"Naruto... Naruto! Get up sleepyhead!" He said as the spikey-haired boy began rubbing his eyes.
He must have fallen asleep, that would mean that everything was a dream. Knowing this made Naruto kind of mad. Both because he had just had an 'erotic' dream about a boy, and that it was just that, a dream.
"Let's go check out campus," Uchiha said as he looked at his new friend "No point staying inn all day. Especially no point in sleeping." he began laughing at Naruto as he saw that the boy was dazed and most likely not fully awake yet. "So, are you coming or not?"
Naruto snapped out of it and looked up "Huu? Oh, sure, why not. I guess I have nothing better to do anyway."
Both boys left their room and locked it. "So where to first then?" Naruto said looking over at Sasuke as they walked down the corridor. "I'm kinda hungry, how about we get something to eat?" his stomach began grumbling. He thought about how a steaming hot bowl of ramen would hit the right spot at that moment.
Sasuke giggled at the noises Naruto's stomach was making "Sure, I could go for a little food myself."
As they entered the cantina in the main building of the campus, they where both in awe at the size of it. Both of them picked up what they wanted to eat and drink and paid for it. Naruto bought three bowls of ramen and a can of coke. While Sasuke on the other hand bought a salad and a bottle of water.
They found a seat and began to eat. "So... I don't mean to be rude or anything but... are you like, you know, a vegetarian?" Naruto managed to say in between his slobbering over the ramen.
Sasuke took a sip of his water "No, I just don't want to eat anything 'heavy' right now, I felt like eating a salad. Why, would that have been a problem?" He looked at his ramen eating friend, it was like watching a eating frenzy.
"No, no problem. I was just wondering." Naruto stopped eating long enough to look at Sasuke and give him a reassuring smile.
As they where sitting there, two girls came walking up to them. One of them had long blond hair and the other had short pink hair. They where both very cute and wore some designer brand which was overly expensive thought Naruto.
The pink haired girl giggled as she looked first at Naruto then at Sasuke, still having her eyes on Sasuke she asked "You are Sasuke right? Do you mind if we sit here?" Before the boy managed to answer the girl, they where both sitting in front of the two boys, they where also staring only at Sasuke.
This made Naruto kind of jealous, but not at the fact that the girls were staring only at Sasuke, but more because they where staring at Sasuke period. He felt himself flush when the pink haired girl opened her mouth.
"By the way, I'm Haruno Sakura, and this is my best friend Yamanaka Ino" the blond girl gave Sasuke a big smile and waved to him. "I don't know if you remember us, but we went to junior high together." Sakura said brushing her hair away from her face, still looking at the young Uchiha.
"I remember. You two are the ones that followed me around all the time. What was that about?" Sasuke shot back before he took another sip of his water.
Both girls blushed and giggled. "That would be us." They both sat there eating, but still transfixed at the heartthrob. It was as if they didn't even give Naruto a second thought.
Naruto at first felt angry with them, but then when he realized that the girls actually didn't notice him, his spirit withered, he was feeling that same helplessness form in his body like before. He didn't know how to react, but decided to leave the lovebirds alone. Since they didn't actually care if he was there or not anyway.
"I-I'm... I-I mean, I have to g-go." He stood up and began walking away, leaving his two bowls of ramen and the rest of his coke.
He felt the tears coming back to his eyes, sometimes he felt like they were the only things always coming back to him. His existence didn't actually matter now, he thought. The first time he meet Sasuke, even if it was just a couple of hours ago, he actually, for the first time in his life, felt as if somebody actually 'cared' about him, what he thought and what he said. Just as Naruto cleared the entrance to the cantina he felt someone grab his arm.
"Naruto. What's wrong buddy?" That voice, that angelic voice. It was Sasuke, he had actually come running after him when he left, but why?
Naruto turned around and looked into the other boys dark, and soft eyes. "I-It's nothing, I-I just have t-to do something..." The smaller kid looked down as he turned around and walked away. "S-See you later..."
Sasuke was somewhat shocked at his new friends behavior, he didn't actually know how he should react to it. What was up with Naruto, he hadn't known the boy that long, but he still felt something of a bond with him. He thought back at his own comments and behavior when he talked to him when they where unpacking.
Maybe he should have just come out and said it right away, that he - the proud and joy of the Uchiha household - was bisexual. That way he might not have 'shocked' Naruto so much with his behavior. He did find the kid cute, with all his stuttering when he was shy. His golden hair, and of course his clear blue eyes. Sasuke had noticed that he actually felt lost when he looked into them.
Sasuke looked as the younger boy walked out the main entrance. Sasuke had in fact admitted it to himself he was bisexual when he was 12. Might be young, but he still had feelings for people of the opposite and of the same sex. As this thoughts wandered, he remembered back to when he was 12 and had his first same sex experience. Although it was only a kiss, it was his first, and it made him feel all tingly inside.
He shrugged, turned around and headed into the cantina again and over to the two girls sitting there waiting for him.
As the spikey-haired boy walked across the campus ground heading for his dorm, he began thinking about what just happened. Sasuke actually came looking for him, worried about him. This was the first time in his life someone did this, and he was both happy and confused. He also began thinking about his reaction to the two girls, and his 'feelings' for the black clad boy. What was wrong with him, he had never had feelings for a boy before. In his old school he had a crush on a girl named Tenten, he had it for three years, never daring to do anything about it. It might have been for the fact that Tenten didn't even know he existed, and that he didn't want people to make more fun of him.
Just then a word flashed trough his head. "Gay... Am I gay?" he asked himself. He did find Sasuke really hot, and whenever he looked at his new buddy, he did feel a tingling inside himself. He also felt that his worries went away whenever Sasuke talked to him. And that dream he had, what did it mean?
He reached his room, laid down on his bed, and he started crying into his pillow because of his feelings. He was so confused and didn't understand anything. He managed to fall asleep, even though his mind was still in turmoil.
To be continued...

Author's comments: Yeah I know that Naruto is kind of a unhappy kid right now. But it will change. Just have to do him like this until I set the tone of why he is like this. He has had a hard life and it doesn't get easier when you think you might be gay or bi. Also Sasuke isn't really like he is in the series, just yet. So that would mean *gasp* arrogant Sasuke is coming later on!? ;) And again, more characters are coming! Who might their teachers be?
