(author notes): I made Sasuke so evil-like in chapter 4! Eeeek! I didn't mean to. I'll try to make him good again here....oh and sorry if I said that Sakura meant cherry blossom. It means cherry tree. But I remember hearing it was cherry blossom somewhere.....

{Sasuke's POV}
Chapter 5- Jealousy, Food, and Asking a Boy to go Shopping
How could I be so fucking stupid! Naruto isn't gay! He ran away because of me...shit. He likes girls, and I am no girl. I feel like...damn! I want to go after Naruto, but what'll he think?
{Sasuke's Vision}
Sasuke: "Ahh...Naruto...look I'm sorry and it's just tha-"
Naruto: Wha?! Stop coming after me, you stalker! You stole my first kiss, my second. And next you're probably going to take my third, fourth, fifth, and maybe even my virginity!!!
Sasuke: I wouldn't do that, Naru-
Naruto: Gah! Stay away from me! (crosses two kunais) Stay away! I've got god on MY side! GOD! Help protect me from this sinful creature!!!
Sasuke:....
{end vision}
....Whatever. I have to see Naruto before Neji. Vision or not. I was such a jerk. I then ran around the village trying to sense Naruto's chakra. After a while I sensed a spark of Naruto but it vanished as soon as I reconized it. It seemed to be coming from the school. I was running at high speed before this pink and yellow blur each grabbed me by the arms in attempt to stop me. Sakura and Ino. They got in the way, AGAIN.
"Sasuke-kun" they cried simutaniously. It's quite annoying. I tried to leave but they only tightened their grip. How shitty is this?
"Tell me that giant forehead Sakura is LYING! TELL ME SASUKE!"
"....Will you let me leave if I told you that she was?"
"But...but Sasuke...I- what happened in the Ichiraku then???" Why do they have butt in anyways! This is my business not theirs! And Naruto! I have to go see him! Damn these people!
"Ok do you want me to say it, Sakura, Ino? Huh?! Didn't you notice how I never liked anyone in my "fanclub"? It was because I WAS GAY and I still AM! Now will you let me go?"
As soon as they heard it in their OWN ears, they let go in shock. I didn't spare a second to get away. Girls can be scary sometimes, and I mean it! They looked like zombies with make-up on when they're surprised. Wait. Don't I have to face the ENTIRE fanclub later on? Shit. Well anyways, I continued my search for Naruto again. His chakra was being sensed more and more clearer as I headed toward the academy. But, there was a second source of chakra accompanying it. It didn't belong to Iruka, so Naruto ran to our former school for a different reason. I couldn't put my finger on who possesed the chakra. When I was in sight range of Naruto, but completely hidden away I saw someone else there. He was a bit taller. Then I saw white eyes, Neji. I can't believe that I forgot about him! The fate bastard!
They were talking and laughing. Something in my chest started to ache. It hurt. Was this-it is....No way! Me, Uchiha Sasuke, was jealous. Ok, well now I know that that's possible. They were enjoying each others company...the last time that I remember doing that with Naruto was...well never. I then felt something warm roll off my cheek and onto the grass. Another came from the other side. I'm crying? (touches face) Shit. I AM! The last time I cried was about 8 years ago...I'm crying because of this? I'm displaying emotion...whatever. I decided to continue watching anyways as my heart throbbed in pain. I supressed tears. It hurt so much.
{Naruto's POV}
Neji got into that wierd girly pose as we prepared to fight. I just stood there. HA! I can beat him with my hands tied behind my back because I have the ninetails! (cough) But I prefer not to use no hands. Anyways he activated the eyes with root looking lines around them and I started off by charging into him. Not a very smart move, Naruto. But OF COURSE I was prepared! I was about to use bushin-no-jutsu before I smelled something. Something like...RAMEN!
"Ah, Neji, can we save this for later?"
"Hm? What why?"
"Something smells like ramen! It smells good!"
I used my nose to lead me to the tasty smelly "thing". Neji just stared at me stupidly with a grin on his face muttering stuff about fate and destiny and bloodlines and cute and blonde! Talk about wierd... My nose led me toward a tall bush not so far away. When I walked closer the bush twitched. I walked up again. The bush twitched again. Stupid Sasuke! He probaly casted some jutsu to make plants fear me! I'll show them fear!
"SOOOOO bush? Are you scared to face my wrath because of...Sasuke's EVIL jutsu?!"
"Naruto. Fate didn't tell you to talk to a bush."
"Eh, I don't believe in that junk. But I KNOW that there is something wrong with this bush. It's the only one fearing ME due to Sasuke's evil spell!"
"You have bad observation skills."(glares at bush smirking)"Even if Naruto doesn't see you, I do."
I just stuck my tongue out at Neji. I could see the bush too! Did he think I was blind or something? Well back to me. I was ready to jump onto the bush while it was continuously twitching in fear! HA! I knew I was strong enough to be the kyuubi. I shot into the air in aim for the freaking plant that seriously reminded me of Ukki-kun....DAMN that plant!!! A black...er...let's call it thing....a black thing flew out of the bush and ran away for dear life. I glanced back at Neji for an answer...I could've swore that I heard him mutter Uchiha while smirking. Did he think that thing was Sasuke? Why would "the great" Sasuke hide in a voodoo victim bush? It must have been a wolf making out with the plant. Don't ask me how it's possible but I CAUGHT that Ukki-kun with a wolf in my recent mission.
(sigh) "Naruto do you want to go back to the village?"
"Yea I'm starved! I need to go to the Ichiraku again.... Wanna come?"
"You're hungry? ALREADY?"
"Yea. So what destiny dude?"
"Destiny dude???"
"ARE you coming or not?!?!"
Strangely enough, Neji agreed. He must have been hungry! We then ran together toward my favortest place in the world!
{Neji's POV}
Naruto and I soon arrived at what Naruto calls "heaven". Naruto's vision of "heaven" must be filthy. I didn't know why I agreed to all this. My mouth unconciously talked on its own. But, I only like Naruto as a really close friend that shouldn't be touched by Sasuke but with all this happening "really close friend" must have another meaning... I cautiosly stepped into the restaurant or booth, whatever word you want. Did I forget to mention that ramen isn't very pleseant to eat in my POV? It tastes like cardboard especially the instant ones. How can Naruto eat such food?
"Neji! What do you want to order? There's miso, beef, chi-"
"Err...I'm not hungry Naruto. I'll just take a glass of water. Is that fine?"
"Wow...I didn't know people could refuse the "almighty" ramen!!!"
Allmighty? Naruto could never stop humoring me. Everything about Naruto made my knees weak but when it passed I have the most treasured times in my life. I then received my glass of water and Naruto gobbled down his "cardboard" when it was placed onto the counter. I glared at my water. It looked clean...but still. I pushed the glass away and started to think about what happened in the forest. Sasuke was watching us. I couldn't believe how a ninja like Naruto not see Uchiha? Naru-
"Yo Neji! I've been speaking to you for the last 3 minutes. Did you hear what I said?
Damn I spaced out!
".....How tasty ramen is and how I was a-able to resist?"
"Damn straight! Wow you really did listen!"
........I STILL can't believe that I fell for him?! AGH! I can never get a straight answer for this! So...I continued dazing off nodding while Naruto would ask me questions every now and then. I guess and get them right. What a wierd guy, yet he's my wierd guy...
::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::
{Somewhere outside of the Konoha village borders}
30 minutes have passed...as two girls stood there, frozen in their thoughts.
"Are you absoulutely sure you heard Sasuke-kun say that?!" questioned Ino who was still not believing her ears.
"Ino...maybe we should let him go. This is the third time Sasuke had to consolt me." sighed Sakura, giving up hope.
"Because....you....big foreheaded Sakura....have SERIOUS problems in your love life!"
"And what does that mean, INO-PIG!!!"
"See! Serious problems! Cause you don't know what it means!"
"Sasuke-kun's gay...we should stay out of this. We'd only get in the way." [like Sasuke said before...]
"NONSENSE! We have to tell someone...what about that older girl....uhh...Tenten! She had a thing for him too! She DESERVES to know."
"That's gossiping. Ino-pig."
"Hey Hey! Weren't you gossiping when you told me about Sasuke?!"
"....." [she has a point]
"So come on big forehead Sakura!!! Let's go tell older girl Tenten."
"Why do you talk like like that?"
"Cause it's fun!"
"Ino...what did you eat for breakfast?"
"I didn't have breakfast...I had a bag of sugar!"
"....."
::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::
{Neji's POV}
I was sitting there lost in my thoughts unconciously looking at Naruto. The thing is, Naruto noticed but didn't care...he should if he were straight...is he gay? Anyways, I stared the entire time when we were in the Ichiraku. An hour passed, and NARUTO WAS STILL EATING his "cardboard soup". Yuck.
"mm...hey...Neji...do you want to leave yet? Cause I'm...ready(slurp)"
He asked me leave...he asked me to leave! I've been sitting here doing nothing and ASKS me to leave. Hell, I've been wanting to leave 55 minutes ago! But hey Neji...keep cool...you're the Hyuga genius that fate has chosen to beat out the Uchiha.
"Fine. I'll be going home. Bye Nar-"
"Whoa...leaving so soon? I thought you said you wanted to hang out the entire day?"
"I did? I didn't."
"....err...Then I THOUGHT you did. So do you want to?"
Naruto is practically asking me out! What the hell?! Say yes! Say yes! Fate is telling you to SAY YES!!!
"Yes."
"You do? The Neji I know doesn't ever say yes!!!"
"YES I do..."
"I thought you talk about destiny."
"I still do."
"....uh....Stop making me look bad!!!"
"Look bad? I am?"
"STOOOOOP!!!"
I don't get it. How am I making him look bad. Naruto doesn't seem to make much sense, still cute though.
"Where do you want to go, Naruto-kun?"
"How bou-did YOU just use "kun" on me??? YOU, Neji, the ice hearted bastard, called me Naruto-kun. The only people who used kun along with my name were Hinata, some teachers, and Uchih-!"
"Sasuke used "kun" right in front of you?"
"He did....but....it was a taunt...and you didn't let ME finish! Uchiha Ita-....you know...I'm just embarrassing myself."
"Well that was a taunt too..." Whew. That was close. I just want to take it slow...unlike SOMEONE else...like Uchiha or Uchihas. Whatever.
"Nooooo it wasn't...I know taunt and that was NO taunt. You MUST have another reason for saying it...do you?"
What in the name of fate?! How did Naruto get SMART during the years?
"Uhh...[think of something ANYTHING] I accidently picked it up from Hinata since we live together???"
"oh.....hehe...I forgot."
He obviously forgot that she lives on the OTHER SIDE AGAIN... Naruto began to think, bright blue pupils wondering to the upper left side of the eye. Ok...when you look to the upper left side...you try to remember something. Oh crap.
"SO where are we going Naruto?!"
"Huh? OH yea lets go SHOPPING!"
He then flashed that irresistably alluring smile. He must be joking! Shopping?! WHY SHOPPING?! Naruto then stared at me with "those" eyes. I wanted to refuse...but "those" eyes! They reminded me of a baby fox...well looks like I need to listen to fate fot thr answer to this question. Fate is always right! Fate is telling me to...uhh (tries to listen to fate in head)...go shopping. Fate thinks I'm a girl, I'm positive that it does! First, I grew up having long hair and was told to NEVER cut it...really girly smooth hair... Next, I like a boy. Now, fate is telling me to go SHOPPING! What next? Will I start getting PMS and grow feminine curves?! Fate is starting to make mistakes.
"....fine...."
"Alright let's go!"
Why the hell does Naruto want to go shopping? I KNOW he knows better! I was about to ask, but I was being dragged...to go shopping. Oh how fun.
"Why are we going shopping and whay are YOU dragging ME?!"
"Eh? Oh sorry it's just that you walk too slow." He then just had to let go, NEARLY making me trip OVER him but instead I fell right ON TOP of Naruto. Every second I stayed in that position the more our faces were heating up. It wasn't a normal "fall over" position...my knee was inbetween his legs and our noses were barely touching each other. Don't ask me how we ended up like that, but I have a suspician that fate wants me to go faster instead of "taking it slow". We continued staring not moving an inch. Heck I wasn't even sure if we were breathing. I saw his eyes again, those bright blue eyes, I felt as if they put me in some sort of trance. A trance I didnt want to snap out of.
"Err...N-Neji can y-you get off me now?"
"......Huh? Oh. Ok." I slowly stood up trying to get the blood out of my face. I hope someone didn't see me blush...oh just great. Me. Hyuga Neji. Is starting to blush because of the village outcast.
"Come on! I wanna get you a gift!"
Naruto wants to give me a gift? Wait. Naruto gives out gifts?....He isn't as greedy as I thought.
"W-why Naruto?"
::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::
{back with Sakura and Ino-3rd POV}
"Ino we're just running in circles! Tenten is nowhere in this forest!"
"You sure big foreheaded Sakura?" Ino answered pointing at Tenten, who was at a distance, with targets and dummies surrounding her.
"Haha. Didn't your sensei say that you had EXCELLENT observation skills?"
"Shut up Ino-pig..." retorted an extremely annoyed Sakura.
The two girls then ran over to Tenten, one faster than the other. Ino was ready to spoil the secret while Sakura was afraid to get a talk from Sasuke.
"Hey your name is Tenten right?" asked Ino who was suspicious of this person.
"Yea. I thought you knew me...Ino. What about my name?" replied Tenten as she threw a handful of kunais at a wooden target.
"Well....you see....Sasu-....hmm....how should I put this? Help me out forehead girl..."
"Oh no. I'm not getting into this." answered Sakura, still fearing the thought of Sasuke telling her to butt out. [Ok...if Sasuke-kun asks...I'll say it's Ino's fault...I'm not getting into this at all....maybe if I do that, Sasuke will go un-gay and will finally go out with me...hmm]
"Oh I see what's going on...big foreheaded Sakura is running out of ideas and she's trying to cover it up!" Ino said while smirking at the pink-haired girl, "Don't worry about it Sakura. It's perfectly normal to lose your IQ when you get dumped!"
"Umm...do you guys have a reason to see me cause I'm leaving to visit Tsunade," intterupted Tenten as she packed up her weapons and training objects.
"Yea! Let me just tell you this SHOCKING secret! Lets see....you have a thing for Sasuke-kun right?" started Ino, ready to burst from the excitement of telling someone else.
"Err...yea so what? You angry or something?"
"Oh noooo!" slurred Ino who seemed perky today, "It's just that we figured out that Sasuke-kun is..."
"Is...." questioned an annoyed Tenten.
"Sasuke-kun is gay!"
"That's all?"
"What do you mean THAT'S ALL?! Are you crazy?! She just said that SASUKE, the hottest guy in the world was GAY!!" yelled Sakura, angry at the reaction the girl gave.
"Quit yelling. I knew Sasuke was gay, anyways most hot guys turn out gay in the end. What did you expect me to do? Faint? I don't play girly girl."
[GIRLY GIRL?! Who does she think she is? We are no girly girl! Wait until I have the chance to take over...but I CAN'T HOW SAD!], mentally screamed Inner Sakura while the REAL one stayed quiet trying to calm her mind down.
"You knew Sasuke-kun was gay? HOW? WHEN? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ANYONE!" screeched Ino, angry that Tenten didn't tell anyone.
"Well Ino. When I MET Sasuke for the FIRST time, I noticed that he was gay since he payed A LOT of attention to Naruto. No one else seemed to notice besides me. And I don't gossip."
"My gosh Sakura. She has better observation skills then you do!"
Sakura just glared while Tenten was about to leave. She didn't want to waste anymore of her time hanging out with a bunch of gossiping girls when she could be with the BEST female ninja in Konoha! Ino was just standing there not knowing what else to say. Obviously her sugar level has finally dropped.
"Well Tenten...do you have anyone else you're looking out for?" asked Sakura, curious to know the next hottest guy.
"I'm thinking about...Neji. From what I've seen, he is positively straight." replied Tenten as she left not knowing how wrong she was.
"Hmm...Sakura. Do you want to tell someone else about Sasuke's problem?"
"No."
"Well too late I've decided already! But who should we tell?"
"I don't want to be involved."
"What about...Hinata! She must have fallen for Sasuke too! In fact I bet all the girls in this village like him! No one can resist his charms!"
"But Ino-pig! Hinata likes Na-"
"Come on! Let's go!" yelled Ino as she dragged a struggling Sakura away.
::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::
{Naruto's POV}
"W-why Naruto?"
When the destiny dude said that...I stopped in my tracks. I really didn't know the reason myself. Hmm...just think all the way back when you recently met Neji. Oh yea...I sneezed in his face...that was scary...but what was even worse was that I sneezed on him again. I was so scared that I nearly wet my pants...hehe. The next morning he kissed me...uhh...I'm thinking way too far back into the past...(cough) even if it was THIS MORNING?! HOW SLOW DOES THE DAY GO BY?! Wait why did he kiss me...I can't believe I forgot about this morning! Hold ON! Maybe Neji...NAW he couldn't...but it makes sense. He agreed to fight with me when he usually rejects everyone else. He eats ramen with me when he usually prefers to be alone. He uses "kun" in my name and makes a lie when he is usually the ice bastard that speaks of the truth only. He lets me drag gim around when he usually beats up anyone who touches him. He AGREES to go SHOPPING with me when he knows that shopping isn't really a guy thing! But this is Neji we're talking about...the ice bastard...the DESTINY DUDE! Ok. Ok. Just forget about it Naruto. It makes your head hurt.
I'm talking to myself. I can't believe I'm mentally talking to myself! But, remember EVERYTHING is Sasuke's fault.
"Naruto I'm waiting for an answer."
"Eh? Uhh..." ...Think of SOMETHING! ANYTHING! Think Naruto think! Wait. I don't think very well...TRY to think Naruto! TRY to think! .....That's it!
"It's for giving me those orange sleeping things! So I'm paying you back!"
"You. Naruto. Pay people back. I don't believe you."
"Err...YOU! NEJI! Will be the first person I ever payback!"
"Wh-"
"Baka, you ask to many questions fate freak! When someone offers you a gift you kindly ACCEPT it!"
"Yes. But you're offering to go shopping with you."
Ah forget Naruto! Your wise words doesn't get to the brain of the destiny dude, fate freak, bird-and-cage, and whatever! Just drag him off to some store. Drag him. DRAG HIM! Then I dragged him while he was talking about the bird and cage and open door again! After a few stuggles and attempts to get away Neji FINALLY calmed down and was walking as smoothly as I was. I couldn't help but feel someone watching us. Eh, must be that wolf that's out to get me for interrupting his make-out session with a bush. A BUSH! What kind of kids will they get? Hairy seeds?
::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::-----::
(more author notes): ACK! I'm sorry for updating later than usual! I was out of town and out of a computer! My beta-ed also replied late. I TRIED to make Sasuke sound less evil and Sakura less bitchy. What I got was some pathetic Sasuke and a bitchier Ino. I feel like shit. Bleh. (Yami: Like hell you do! You barely let me write anything!) Oh yea another note...I'm sorry posting chapter 5 and taking it down! showed the HTML code when I uploaded the chapter! Eeek sorry!
