() 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; All I own is a membership at the Shinobi Academy site (ugh.  I forgot the exact URL address).  It's pretty cool.

Warnings: swearing, shounen-ai (or yaoi? you choose.) and drunken people.

Chapter 2: Click on Tuesday

==()==

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

Naruto is still staring at the person who surprised him earlier.  That smirk on the other's face really made his hairs stand on end.  Worse, it was his archenemy!!!  A hot archenemy, in this case.  Hell as it was at his case right now, he needed to ask that bastard what the heck did he want from him and needed to meet here in the bridge.

However, on Sasuke's part, seeing the horror in the blonde's face was really amusing.  Yep, amusing.  His little surprise on the dobe really did work.  ==Well, well, well.  Looks like the dobe doesn't wear his usual orange jacket...but hey, freakin' hot in here!!!  For some reason, I think he should wear this sleeveless outfit more often...his body really looks that nice with it...slim and well-muscled...probably a powerhouse in bed...what a fuckin' second...

POWERHOUSE IN BED!?!?!?  Dammit, Sasuke, you're thinking too much!!!  By the way, stop referring yourself as another person!!!== He mentally cursed himself.  The raven ninja's eyes widen because of his thoughts and a few choice curses.

"Sasuke?" the blonde waved his hand in front of the staring raven-haired shinobi. 

No reply.

"Sasuke!!!"  That's it!  Naruto literally pushed Sasuke out of the bridge and into the stream of water beneath them.  It was not that steep, but enough to injure you for there's a patch of mild sharp stones under and the impact.

The raven-haired shinobi jolted back to reality when he felt his body was going down and the things he saw were rotating.  He felt an arm pushing him towards the stream so, he pulled that arm together with him.  It means one thing...they both fell into the stream.

A big splash was creating when they fell; droplets of it went into their faces.  They were both gasping for air for their very lives.

"Shit, shit, shit!!!" the blonde kitsune reached the side of the stream, his breath calming.  But there is one problem, however.  Why oh why he felt heavier than usual...? As far as he knows, he really isn't gaining weight because of his hyperactiveness...oh well... blame Kyubi for that matter... but still.  Why does he feel HEAVY?!?!

A cough snapped him out of thoughts.

() Oh, shit.... shit, shit....SHIIIT!!!!!  Can't be...()

Naruto looked up to see who was coughing...and it scared the shit out of him!  It was Sasuke who was coughing and...

...and...on top of him??? 

() Dammit... if it weren't for his stupid fucking note, I wouldn't even end up in a stream with a guy on top of me! Worse, he was sitting between my legs!!!!  Fine...gather all info up... first he gave me a note...a stupid fucking note to meet here!  Second, he surprised me with a hug and that stimulating voice of his.  Third is this... goddamn!!! What the hell is he trying to do with me?!???  I know he's hot and all.... but, he's never go for a hyper, noisy guy like me...he's a guy for Pete's sake!!!

Wait...hot and all???()

==What the fuck...this dobe let me fall into this stream?!  Ugh...On the other hand, my plan is doing so far so good.  I know he's a homo for some reason, after I saw him with Neji the other night in the bar... And hell...I won't let that white-eyed freak have my Naruto...never will be...==

Whoa...seems like the raven shinobi has a different thoughts about the dobe this time.  But first, he needs to get out of the water and out of their position at the moment.

==I have to get the hell out of this position before I do something I regret! ==

In mere seconds, he got himself out of the freakin' stream and Naruto follows moments later.  He still have the horror look in his face after all happened to him...and he definitely needs a rest before he gets cold and all.

"Naruto-kun??" he snapped his fingers in front of the blonde to get him out of dreamland.  The blonde jumped out of surprise and it seemed that in his mind, things are starting to click into place.

"Eh?" Naruto blinked...and sneezed.

Seeming to notice that Naruto was nearing to catch cold anytime, he knocked the blonde on the back of the head to knock him off for a while.  Then, he carried the blonde into his arms and headed back home...before both of them gets sick.

==()==

Naruto opened his eyes.  It seems like he had fallen asleep or something.  All he knows is he was in the bridge last time and then, he's already here.

() Where...am...I? ()

He sat up on the bed, and roamed his azure orbs into the room that is obviously wasn't his.  The room is apparently bigger than his; the ceilings and walls are colored black while the curtains are colored blood red.  The bed that he was lying on is made up of silky navy blue sheets and the pillows are also of the same color.

All his train of thoughts was cut off when he heard his stomach growl...perhaps he needed food now?

() Oh, great.  I'm hungry. ()

He rubbed his stomach to rub it for a moment before he looks for food somewhere.  He looked at the wall clock.  8 p.m.  He jumped out of bed to look to roam around the room for the moment...until he came across the full-length mirror beside a cherry wood desk.

"Wait...am I just hallucinating or is this is for real???" He walked back to the mirror to take a look at himself.  And the answer came with a scream and curses....

He's completely naked.

"FREAKIN' SHIT!!!!  WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED TO ME???  WHY AM I NAKED?!?"

His stomach dropped in horror when he heard a click on the doorknob.  He immediately went back to the bed, slid under the silken sheets and pretending to be asleep.  The door opened, revealing Sasuke with a black robe walking in the room.

"Naruto-kun, wake up."

No movement from the blonde who's still sleeping.

"Oh well." Sasuke just shrugged.  "I can't wake someone who is already AWAKE."

The blonde opened his eyes.  "Quite right."  He sat on the bed with the sheets pooling around his hips in a seductive way.  He leaned against the black headboard, crossing his arms.  "Now...WHY THE HELL YOU STRIP MY CLOTHES OFF!!!!?" he shouted, almost breaking a few windows. 

==How am I supposed to explain this to him?  I mean, he's wet and all so...==

() Oh god.  Now why did I shout that out?  It's impossible for him to do it, right?  But if he was the one who took it all off...s-surely he hadn't seen??()

The raven ninja blushed, swallowing his saliva before he started explaining.  "You were wet and you're nearing to catch a cold so I brought you here.  If you were stupid enough not to know whose house...it's mine.  Your clothes were still wet so you have to stay for the night and by the way, your food is on the table if you're hungry.  Got it?"  Whoa...smooth on explaining that one.  But still...he has to explain that.

"So it was you all along...and you have seen it?" Naruto crossed his fingers under the sheets.

"Yes."  He tried not to look at the blonde's hips, because it may cause him to take Naruto without warning or anything else...good thing he has a rational mind to control disturbing images in his mind before it turns into reality.

And after all that, Sasuke just went out of the room without saying a word after what they have argued...if arguing is what you call it.  Meanwhile, because the blonde's stomach was complaining again for the nth time, he went to the cabinet to find something to wear so he could go out of the freakin' room and get his food.

He opened the cabinet only to find a sleeveless Cypress green kimono, which he guessed that, belongs to Itachi once.  He also guessed that the room he was sleeping earlier belongs to Itachi, too.  Anyways, no time to lose, he needed to wear that kimono and eat!

He immediately springed out of the room, noticing that Sasuke was gone for a while.  He didn't care about Sasuke for the moment; he needed to find the kitchen---fast!

() Dammit, where's the kitchen?  Does it LIKE hiding from me?!()

He finally reached his destination--the kitchen.  He immediately spotted the food on the table, which he recognized it was the food Sasuke mentioned earlier that he cooked for him.  His azure eyes twinkled at the sight, but he really didn't care what the hell is the food he was going to eat tonight.  He saw a Japanese plate, full of something round with a somewhat fish or something at the center of it, which he guessed was sushi.  Then, beside it is a soy sauce and a cup of tea---apple tea to be exact.

He sat and tasted one of the sushi on the platter...and gods, it taste so damn good!!!  It tasted so good Naruto almost shouted to the world that it was so delicious. 

"Oishiiiiii!!!!!" He immediately wanted more.  He continued eating it until a voice distracted his grumble on food.

"Wow, I'm surprised that you like sushi very much."  Sasuke was on the other side of the table, watching him.  Why oh why he hasn't noticed before that bastard?!  "I made it myself."

Naruto blinked.  He didn't imagine that the bastard in front of him could make such delicious food.  Then again, he was living alone so he probably learned to cook a long time ago.  But anyways, why the hell the bastard was still watching him while he was eating???

The blonde set for a glare and swallowed his last sushi before he started to speak.  "Whadd'ya want?!"

Sasuke just laughed...something he hasn't done in years.  "Why?  Would it kill you if I stare at you all night long?" 

"Not really."  The blonde was still glaring at the raven beauty who's still staring at him...it really sends shivers up and down his spine.  Out of the blue, he remembered the note Sasuke gave him this afternoon.  What the hell does he want anyway?  "Anyhow, about the note...what the hell is the reason you made me meet with you at the bridge???"

"Oh!!!  That..." The raven-haired shinobi returned to the usual smug expression. "Um.... can I be your partner for the contest?  I have my own reasons." Whoa...it must be hard for him to tell all of it...and Sasuke was the person Naruto expected to be his partner for the contest!

Naruto's jaw dropped.  "WHAAAT???"  () Oh gods.  He?  My partner? I'm dreaming, right?  NEEVER!!!!() He cocked an eyebrow.  "You want the set, right?  Oh well."

==Oh well????  What the hell that one supposed to mean??==  "So what are you trying to say, Naruto-kun??"

A wink from the blonde was his answer.  "8:45 a.m.  OK?"  () Am I a masochist?  Leave it to the gods what will happen on Tuesday.  GEEZE!!!!!() He immediately drank his tea until it was empty and without a word said, he went out of the kitchen and went back to the room.... he's sleepy again.

Meanwhile, Sasuke was left in the kitchen looking around for something to make him sleepy.  He found one, though.  It was a jar that was placed inside one of the cabinets.  It was not really big, but when he smelled it, he knew already what that was.  Sake.

==Fine...==

==()==

Sasuke looked at his watch.  11:55 p.m.  5 minutes before midnight.  He needed sleep and he already felt it.  He's also very, very, very drunk.  He started to stand up and walk back to his room to sleep.  The problem is, he can't see things clearly.  Also, his walking was unstable.

Still drunk, he finally reached his bedroom.  He took off his shirt and shorts, only left with his boxers.  He slid under the sheets until he was finally snuggled under it.  The only thing that bothered his mind is...he feels that he had walked inside the wrong room.  Ah, well.  He ridded his mind of doubts before he closed his eyes.

He wrapped his arm around something soft and warm, and pulled it close to him. 

==So soft, so warm...A blonde furball...I love it...==

And so he drift off to dreamland.

==()==

Notes: EEsh.... talk about furballs...a blonde one at that! blushes Holy Shit!!!  This chapter really had my brain drained...I had writer's block for three days straight!!! X.X;;  Anyway, gomen nasai if I have no lime in here, whatsoever……I'll try to do more spice in the next chapter---It'll be up to you if I will continue or not!!! n.n
