That lil' Game

by: shar xei-kun

Notes: Heh.  I shouldn't have started another fic just yet.  Well, what could I do???  I was practically dying of boredom here, and I want to think more of an idea for my other Naruto fic.  So, here I go, another spring of an idea.  I hope no one will kill me. ;;  Also, the title was quite weird so maybe somebody up there still likes me...

Whatever things: Anyways, this goes for my pals and all Naruto fans, basically. ;;

()Naruto's thoughts()

==Sasuke's thoughts==

Disclaimer: Obviously, Kishimoto Masashi owns Naruto, so there's no way I can own this kind of anime, though that would be nice. T-T;

Warnings: swearing, shounen-ai (or yaoi? you choose.) and mild lime (or anything in the citrus family, I guess?).

Chapter 1: Surprise, Surprise

==()==

The whole team 7 was in Ichiraku, eating the all-famous food, Ramen.  Naruto, of course was so happy everytime they eat in here almost everyday.  His teammates, Sasuke and Sakura, were really that hungry so they have to eat ramen...again.  Kakashi, their sensei did not mind at all.  He'll be able to eat that certain noodle while reading his all-famous Icha Icha Paradise.

"Oi, dobe." the raven-haired boy called out. "How were you able to eat the same food everyday?  I mean, don't you get tired?" he was obviously want a change of food.  And it somehow registered in the blonde's mind.

"For your information, bastard" he focused on the word 'bastard' while he was telling that.  Sure Sasuke pisses the blonde too much, so Naruto put emphasis on the word 'bastard'.  "Ramen has different flavors, you know!!" On certain terms, the blonde was right. 

"Baka.  You don't get what I mean." The raven-haired boy sighed irritably, but hey...he should've expected that from an idiot like Naru-chan....Naru-chan??? ==Oh, well.  He invades my life and now my thoughts...!!!  Goodamn it.  I should do something about this, or I'll wake up being an idiot the next day.  What a nightmare!==  "What I mean is, don't you eat anything other than all flavors of Ramen???"

"That would be nice...." The blonde tilted his head to one side, while looking at Sasuke with those azure eyes of his.  ()Duh, I know what he mean by that...damn.  I like him looking like that.  Pissed off...how cute!!!  Fuck that, did I just say cute???  Damnit, I need to shovel up into rationality this brains of mine before I ended up in his bed.  Shit!!!!  What the hell did I just thought? Forget it, Naruto.  He can't and obviously can't be yours, clear?!?!?!?!?()

"Dobe?  Dobe!!" The raven-haired boy snapped his finger to get the blonde out of his musings.  Sheesh, he was probably thinking too much.

The blonde flinched.  Oh, yeah.  Musing again.  He saw a curious look in Sasuke's ebony orbs.  Aw, that's normal for him...but this curiosity look IS strange.  "Wha-What?!?" he shouted, almost choking on the ramen that he was eating.  Kakashi patted him at the back, and after a few moments, his choke vanished...gradually. 

"Surprises really doesn't fit you sometimes, eh Naruto?" he said while ruffling the blonde's hair, smiling.  Then, he resumed his reading of Icha Icha Paradise.

The blonde blinked.  He resumed on his grumble for food, not bothering to ask the genius bastard himself, when one of the attendants in the restaurant called his attention for the moment.

"ea, aht?" he muffled in those piles of noodles on his mouth, looking up.

Sakura rolled her apple green orbs.  "Total idiot." she muttered.

The attendant flashed a grin, knowing that Naruto would like what he's going to say.  "We're going to have a contest on Tuesday."

"Contest on what?" the blonde had finally cleared off his mouth so he can say something clearly before he spits it out on either Sakura, Kakashi or worse.....Sasuke.  He might start a killing frenzy if he did that.  The last time that happened was almost a total disaster when he accidentally sneezed it out on Sasuke and Sakura.  The two fumed up and almost cut his life short at that time.  If not for Kakashi, he'd be dead by now.

"A ramen contest." The attendant said, grinning. 

"Really?!?!" He jumped off in excitement.  "What's the catch??"

"A set of kunai and shurikens.  5 shurikens and 5 kunais.  Makes it ten."

A grin came out of Naruto's face.  "Ok, I'm going in!!"

The attendant blinked.  He didn't know that Naruto could agree on such a thing that fast.  Then again, this is Uzumaki Naruto you're talking to.  "But, first things first, you must have a partner.  I'll explain the rules on Tuesday.  Be sure to have a partner then." Then, the attendant went to the kitchen to do his work.

"Partner???" he mainly questioned himself.  He hates partners when it comes to ramen...especially if a certain Uchiha is your partner in contest.  Naruto accidentally sloted in his hand to his shuriken holster on his right leg. 

()Maybe the prize will fit me well...geez, I forgot to buy new shurikens for my holster...the last time I bought one was last month...if I know, I bought 8 shurikens...now there are only 2 left...goddamn!!!  I have to win that set, or else I'll spend my money again on those things...but...who will be my partner???  Maybe Sakura-chan.....no..she practically hates me and she'd just beat the shit out of me even before the contest starts....so much for being an amazon girl....Kakashi-sensei?  Hell, no....he'd just be late again....the contest will start at 9 a.m....he'll come by 10.... Sasuke?  aaaah!! no, hell, no, no and never!!!! That hot bastard!!!  He'd just steal my set away!!! Wait....hot??? Fuck that, I should focus on tuesday anyway.  But who will be???()

All these thinking (or musing) by himself made his head ache in mere seconds, snapping him out of thoughts.  And all of that thinking left him a bit startled...and annoyed..

His teammates and Kakashi-sensei were gone...

He slammed his hand on the table in anger...those bastards left him alone to pay this??? ()What a team.  They'd let me pay on all these bowls??? How about my food for the next weeks of my existence???()

And just then, an attendant walked towards his direction...probably to make him pay for the bowls!!!  Talk about when you're eating too much!

()Oh god.  Ohgodohgodohgod.  The hell?  Here we go... oh gods, don't make me pay for this shit...I'll end up eating absolutely nothing in the next two weeks!!!()

"Oi Naruto," the attendant pulled out something in his pocket-a piece of paper, to be exact.  "The black-haired friend of yours gave me this." he handed the piece of paper to the blonde kitsune. "He said I would give it to you before you left here...and by the way...he was the one who paid for the four of you."

The blonde's jaw dropped open.  The hell?  He thanked the gods anyway for not making him pay all of those bowls.  Oy.  "Well, thanks.  I'll be here on tuesday."  And he walked away, trying to find where the hell Kakashi and the others go.  Then again, they were not taking missions at the moment.

Suddenly, he remembered the paper the attendant gave him.  He pulled out the paper from his side pocket.  And before even he opens it, he took off his jacket revealing a black tight shirt inside.  And because it is tight, his lithe frame was discovered.

()Then again, I shoudn't have taken off these jackets...oh well.  And hey, It's fucking hot in here!!!!  It's not like someone will notice me anyway.()  He folded his jacket and jumped off to the trees to rest.  It's more better than in the freakin' hot street.  ()At least it's a bit cool in here.()

He finally opened the note.  It was pretty short, but it made his hairs stand on end.

Meet me at the bridge at 4.

Don't you dare to be late.

-S-

"S?  Who the hell is this???"  He cocked an eyebrow.  "Oh, well.  Better go."  He looked at the clock.  3:15 p.m.

He jumped off the tree and passed by his house to leave the jacket.  It's hot so he better not take it with him.  He looked at his wristwatch again.  3:30 p.m.  He better jump off his apartment and go to to the meeting place.  A bit far and if not fast enough, he'd be there by 3:45 p.m.  What a bummer.

Finally, he arrived at the bridge.  No one's around the bridge...also unusually quiet...how weird.  Something is wrong...terribly wrong.

()Is this a prank or anything?!!()

 He mentally shouted.  Because of his deep musing to himself, followed by curses, he didn't felt the familiar presence behind him, a very, very familiar one.  And this 'familiar one' is also the same person who wrote a small message for the blonde. 

==Here goes.  Hope you'll be surprised, Naruto-kun.==

The person behind Naruto hugged him by the waist, snapping Naruto out of thoughts. "What the-?"  The hug was so tight he couldn't move and for some reason, it scared him...

The person behind him nibbled on his ear.  Aw, great.  He couldn't help it. "Ne, Naruto-kun...." he said in his low voice that somehow seems so seductive.  "I guess you're early, huh?"

Seductive as it was, but that scared the shit on Naruto's part, making him tremble and hairs standing.  "W-were y-you the one w-who..." If not on the tight grip on him, he would've fallen to the ground.

"Hai.  I was the one." the voice spoke again, his hot breath cascading the blonde's ear, making the blonde tremble even more and turned a deep shade of red.  "Don't you recognize me?" 

"Sure I have met you before, right?" The blonde tried to squirm but it was no use.  The harder he squirm, the tighter the hug would be.  And all his thoughts were jumbled when the guy behind him let him loose.

All of a sudden, the seductive voice he heard earlier turned into an icy voice.  "You're such a dobe, Naruto."  The blonde turned around quickly to see who just surprised him out of the blue.

 He blinked at the sight of the guy before him...he just seems so...familiar... he's wearing a black polo with the half of the buttons unbuttoned, revealing his well-toned chest.  Not to mention his tight pants with the shuriken holster on the right leg.  But hey, those dark eyes and raven locks...

"Sasuke?!!!" his instinct was right.  It was the Mr.Perfect, Mr.I-don't-give-a-shit...

Uchiha Sasuke.

And the sight of a raven-haired beauty before him; not to mention what happened between the two of them earlier made him blush a bright shade of red on his cheeks.  And what made him blush more is the fact that Sasuke was staring at him...deeply and the weird smirk plastered on his face?  The fuck?!

()What the hell is happening to me?!()

==()==

Me continue? Me stop? ;

Hope somebody up there still like me…

I'll be back with the second chapter of this and the third chappie of my other Naruto fic!!!

CIAO!
