Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto…It's not mine. Nope…Waaaaaahhh cries
A/N: Ok, my cat jumped out of the window and landed four floors down and my sister got hit by a car! I'm really worried right now so I'm sorry in advance if this chapter is kind of sucky…And lame…Bah. Someone up there must hate me. Also, it might be a little bit rushed because my holiday is almost over and I won't have much time to write on the whole process of Naruto falling in love. So I just made him realize he has feelings for Sasuke in this chapter (sort of). Sorry if it seemed to be moving forward too fast.
Chapter 2 - Sasuke's house
The two figures followed Naruto to his home. Naruto didn't even sense he was being followed. Naruto actually found the one thing which was perfect but of course, he didn't have enough money to buy it. He gave up searching for a cheaper gift and went to his apartment. He entered and felt his legs ache from walking all day. He plopped onto his bed and fell into a light sleep.
Outside, the two men watched the blond through the window.
"I can't believe he fell asleep! What do we do now?"
The other smirked. "Just watch." He said and opened the window to Naruto's bedroom as quietly as possible. He jumped inside and walked over to the bed. He bent over to the sleeping boy and whispered something in his ear. Naruto mumbled something in return and his eyelashes fluttered open slowly. Before he could see anything, the figure beside him disappeared.
The man that looked through the window saw the whole thing and couldn't understand what just happened. He feared that Naruto might see him and dropped flat on his stomach. His friend appeared next to him and suppressed a laugh at the sight in front of him.
"I didn't want to be seen! Don't mock me!" The man on the grass got up and brushed his pants. He shot a nasty glare at his friend.
"Hey!" He waved his hands in front of him in a defensive manner. "I wasn't doing anything. Now let's see if it worked." He looked over to the entrance door. The other man followed his gaze to the door that flung open with Naruto running to the distance.
"Plan A – success." He said and clasped his hands together in glee.
Sasuke walked over to his door. It has to be one persistent girl, he thought to himself. Someone was pounding on his door without giving up. He tried to ignore but they wouldn't go away.
He opened the door and was greeted by Naruto's toothy grin.
"What do you want?" Sasuke glared at him angrily. He placed one hand on the door and the other on the door frame.
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Naruto's grin widened.
"Why should I?" He said coldly. Naruto pouted in return and his eyes got watery.
Sasuke groaned and opened the door further, gesturing Naruto to enter. He gave in to the puppy eyes. He couldn't stand seeing it, it made him feel like he wanted to hug him.
Naruto skipped inside his house happily. "Ya know, I thought there'll be fan girls waiting outside or something. How'd you make them leave?"
"I asked them to go away." Sasuke sat down on the dark couch in his living room.
"You asked them? Didn't they want to give you gifts?" Naruto raised an eyebrow and sat down next to his rival.
Sasuke just shrugged and pointed at a pile of presents inside the trashcan and outside of it. Naruto frowned. 'Will Sasuke throw away my gift too? Maybe I really shouldn't get him anything. But I just have to ask… If I ask him what he wants maybe he won't throw it away because he wants it, Right?'
"So what are you doing here, dobe?"
"Stop calling me dobe, bastard!"
"Okay, dobe."
"Bastard!"
"Dobe." It was never boring with the blonde around, Sasuke thought. "Well?"
"I came to ask you something." Naruto looked away nervously. Why was he even doing it? He didn't even need to get him something.
"What is it?" Sasuke rested one arm on the back rest of the couch.
"I-It's your 18 birthday today…" Naruto stammered a bit.
"It would seem so."
"And I wanted to buy you a gift but I didn't find anything I thought you'd like so I came to ask you what you want and it was stupid because I can just get you anything but I wanted something special and there was this voice in my dream that sounded really familiar that told me to come and ask you what you want because you have something you really really want but what is it you really really want?" Naruto said everything in one breath.
"What I really want?" Naruto nodded. He heard a voice in the back of his mind, 'You know what you want.'
"There's nothing I want." Sasuke ignored the cries of the voice to do something to Naruto. Smell him, taste him, kiss him…Sasuke shook his head. His heart started thumping in his chest. Why was Naruto sitting so close? 'You could lean closer and just…' 'No! There are other couches, he can sit anywhere.' Sasuke argued with his voice. He continued shaking his head. Talking to the voices in your head is the first sign of insanity.
"Why are you shaking your head?" Naruto tilted his head to the side which made him look like a confused puppy.
Sasuke glared at Naruto who looked at him utterly confused. 'He looks cute, don't you think? Wouldn't you just like to take him to your room…And well, you know the rest.' The voice in his mind continued. Stupid voice! It was planting naughty thoughts in his brain. Sasuke fought the urge to jump on the blonde right then.
"Uh. Sasuke, you ok? You don't look so good. Your face is kinda red." Naruto brought his palm to Sasuke's forehead to check if he had a fever. Sasuke grabbed his hand before he touched him and held it in the air. Naruto blinked again. Their hands were in mid-air for what seemed like forever. He wanted to escape Sasuke's grasp, but he was frozen in his place.
Sasuke slowly brought their hands down, still staring at those entrancing blue eyes in front of him. Naruto's hand was on the couch and Sasuke's hand covered his own. Naruto looked more than confused. Sasuke was acting really strange.
If Sasuke wasn't too caught up in the moment he would have sensed that they were being watched.
"Ara…Aren't they rushing things just a tiny bit? I didn't think it would be so easy to get them together." One of the men said quietly as he peeked at them through the window.
"Sasuke had feelings for Naruto for months, I think. And I think Naruto feels something too."
"Oh, really? How do you know?"
"I don't know, I think. Sasuke and Naruto got closer during the years. It's obvious that they care for each other. They don't consider each other just rivals anymore but best friends too. Also, Naruto once said that there is one person in the world who he cares for more than anyone else. Who else can it be? He got over his crush with Sakura-chan years ago and Sasuke is the only true friend he has."
"Hmm…Don't you think he meant that he cared for him like a friend? What makes you think he will like Sasuke more?"
"Don't know...But I have a feeling he'll fall in love with him soon."
"Wha-what are you doing?" Naruto swallowed hard. His heart was beating so fast, he felt as if it's going to pop out of his chest any minute.
Sasuke bent over to Naruto whose body refused to move a muscle. Sasuke was mere inches from his face and their noses were almost touching. Naruto could feel Sasuke's breath on his face. Sasuke pierced Naruto with his intense gaze and a visible shiver went down Naruto's spine. Sasuke was so close. 'Is he going to…Kiss me?'
Sasuke smirked evilly and backed away. "Scared you, dobe?" Sasuke took his hand off Naruto's and now rested both arms on the back rest of his couch.
Naruto's heart was still beating in an unusual rate. He tried to say something; he wanted to yell at Sasuke. Hell, he wanted to kick his ass! He tried to speak but his voice wouldn't come out. He only managed to open his mouth and close it again a few times, looking like a fish.
"I want you…" Sasuke made a pause and smirked some more. "To go home, Naruto."
Naruto was still in a state of shock. Sasuke was just playing with him but Naruto couldn't help the funny feeling in his stomach. Now he got a chance to notice how beautiful Sasuke really was. He looked almost angelic with his pale skin. Over the years he became even more handsome.
'Wait! Stop right there! I DID NOT just think that Sasuke is beautiful!' Naruto Sasuke was his best friend! Not to mention, he was a guy. There was no way in hell he was attracted to a guy.
His line of thought was broken when Sasuke got up and looked outside the window, with a kunai in his hand. He thought he saw two people outside but now couldn't see anything unusual.
Naruto used this chance to rush to the door and leave as quickly as possible. He ran towards the Ninja Academy and stopped breathless when he got to the playground. It was empty because it was already late in the afternoon. He sat on the swing he used to sit down on so many times before when he was a child.
He started rocking slowly back and forth on the old swing. He looked down at his hands as he tried to come up with a logical explanation to why he had a tingly sensation all over his body when he thought about Sasuke.
Naruto hasknown Sasuke for many years now. They were teammates, rivals and friends. Sasuke was Naruto's best friend which he trusted more than he would like to admit. If they were only friends then why did Sasuke seem like he was going to kiss Naruto back then? 'Argh! I don't like Sasuke that way! I'm straight!'
The only thing Naruto came up with was – hormones. (A/N – Silly Naruto and Sasuke blame it all on hormones.) They're both teenagers after all. Sasuke was teasing Naruto, which wasn't the first time and Naruto's hormones just decided to wake up at that moment. It was the most logical explanation. However, Naruto felt like he was missing out on something.
"Something on your mind?"
"Iruka-sensei!" Naruto smiled when he noticed his former sensei approach.
Iruka smiled and looked down at Naruto. In reality Naruto was about the same height as Iruka since he got a lot taller as the years passed, but when he sat down he looked like a small kid again. It made Iruka smile. "Is there something on your mind?"
"Nope!" Naruto faked a smile and rubbed the back of his head sheepishly.
"Maybe there's someone on your mind, then?" Iruka grinned inwardly as the teen looked up to him with a shocked expression. "Sasuke, perhaps?" He continued.
'Am I that easy to read?' Naruto asked himself and nodded slowly to Iruka.
"Do you want to tell me what's bothering you?" Iruka looked a bit concerned as Naruto's smile faded to reveal a small frown.
"I don't know what's the matter with me. He was just teasing me and I just…Ugh, I don't know!" Naruto buried his face in his hands.
Iruka patted Naruto on his shoulder reassuringly. "Are you going to his surprise party in an hour?"
"He told me to go home. I don't know if he wants me there."
"I think you should still go." Iruka said with a smile.
"But I didn't get him a gift. Not that he deserves one, that bastard…" Naruto said the last sentence quietly but Iruka still heard him and chuckled.
He shoved one hand in his pocket and searched for something. He took his hand out and placed a small item in Naruto's hand. Naruto's eyes widened and he looked at his former teacher.
"Iruka-sensei, how did you know?" He asked quietly, still staring at his hand.
"You can pay me back later, I know you wanted it." Iruka ignored the question and waved before he performed a few seals and disappeared.
"Thanks Iruka-sensei. I hope he'll like it." Naruto said to no one in particular as he stared at the shining object in his hand and smiled widely.
A/N: Eeep! I didn't like this chapter at all! It felt really rushed in my opinion. I feel like the characters were really OOC T.T But anyway…Tell me what you think and I might edit it. I removed the part about Naruto's age. It's beenso long since I saw Naruto so I completely forgot about it. Thanks Hana!
Thanks everyone who reviewed! You all made me feel really good and fuzzy. I'm sorry I can't thank you personally but I'm kind of in a hurry. Please feed the author and review some more. Love ya!
