Three in a Row

.:.Last Day At Lee's House.:.-

It was an afternoon when Lee left the house with Naruto to some noodles at the Ramen house. Lee checked how Sasuke was doing before leaving. Seeing that Sasuke was asleep, he closed the door and followed Naruto who was already marching his way to the ramen house.

"You know, I was thinking if I could ask master Kakashi to stay a few more days in your house. I feel comfy in ther-" Naruto was cut by Lee.

"Nu-uh. You broke three of my plates in two days. How many more do you intend to break… or what other chinaware do you want to break, hmm?" Lee walk past Naruto.

"Heyyy, that's mean of you to say that. AS IF I really wanted to break all your stuff!" Naruto pouted as he tried to catch up with Lee.

"Not as if but more like YOU ARE wanting to break ALL my stuff."

"Eh? You're very Sakura-ish today. Like you have your 'period' or something." Naruto teased and played with his pocket.

"HA-HA! Very funny…"

"OH! OH NO!" Naruto's hands wandered frantically over his pocket. His eyes showed a mix of sadness and worry.

"What?" Lee blinked and anxiously watched Naruto's actions.

"MY WALLET! IT'S…" Naruto's hands sunk deeper into his pockets. "IT'S! IT'S! NOT HERE…"

From worry, Naruto's expression changed into puppy-eyes plus teary-teary appearance. Lee sweatdropped. "I'll go back to get your wallet."

"NO! NO! I'll do that. I don't want you to get tired just to get my wallet for me. Unless you're too concerned about me. AWW… Just like how a seme would care for his dear dear uke." Naruto taunted.

Sweat filled Lee's face. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! FINE! GET IT FOR YOURSELF!" He walked twice as fast as he did earlier.

Naruto can't help but laugh. He excitedly went back to Lee's house. 'Finally… One afternoon with Sasuke!' As he laughed his way back, he found a penny. "OH.. How lucky of you Naruto. Very lucky indeed." He whistled and stopped by a flower shop.

"Here you go…" The owner of the flower shop handed out a single piece of rose to Naruto.

"EHH? Is that all there is for the penny!"

"Boy, what do you expect, a bouquet? Go home and give that to your mom. You might have stolen that penny from her anyway." The owner went in the shop and closed the sliding door at Naruto.

"Wha… I should've bought a cheaper one then. ARGH." Naruto held the rose and continued his path to Lee's house.

…

After a few minutes of walking, Naruto finally reached his destination. He opened the front door with the duplicate keys. He tried to push the door but he can't, so he put the rose's stem between his lips to use both hands on pushing the door.

First attempt to push it, failed miserably but the next was successful. Successful to the point that he threw himself in and landed directly on the floor. Or was it the floor? He landed on something warm and firm.

"Looking for this?" Sasuke winked at Naruto. Next, with the use of his lips he bit the rose off Naruto's and dropped it down the floor. The next thing was heaven for Naruto. They went through a rampage of kisses before Naruto could even answer Sasuke's question.

"Uh… so you hid my wallet on purpose just to…"

Sasuke planted a kiss on Naruto's lips again. "Yeah. I was kinda guilty for making you feel bad. I'm not going to apologize though, words may not count but actions will…" Sasuke started to unbutton Naruto's shirt.

On the other hand, Lee was already feasting on a hot bowl of ramen. As he sipped the soup from the bowl he remembered Sasuke. It didn't bother him that much because he saw Sasuke asleep when he left. He placed some more noodles in his mouth when the scariest thought entered his mind. He remembered that Sasuke held something in his sleep.

'That might be… Naruto's wallet!' Lee's face was indescribable. "NO! NO! NO!" Lee gripped his chopsticks firmly and beat it hardly on the table. The people in the Ramen house eyed him confusingly.

The next thing that echoed in Lee's mind was Naruto's words: 'Just like how a seme would care for his dear dear uke…'

"NO! YAOI!" Lee uncontrollably shouted.

The men in the counter giggled. Neji was also passing by when Lee had uttered his most feared word. Neji only showed Lee a smirk then continued to walk past the Ramen house.

Embarrassed, he ordered some more ramen and ate almost five bowls. At the last sip, his imagination began to betray him. A message was sent to his brain, telling it that Naruto and Sasuke are probably doing –something- in his house or worst, his bedroom.

In Lee's Head—….

"Naruto?"

Lee walked in his house and found Naruto's shirt on the floor. A few steps more he found Sasuke's undies. He nervously trailed to his own room.

"Na… Naruto? Are you in there?" He said as he slowly and gently pushed the door open.

"Itai… Naruto…"

"Shh… Everything will be fine, Sasuke. Trust me."

"Hnn…"

"Uhh.."

"Mhmm…"

Sounds came from behind the door. Lee's hands were shivering as they continued to push the door open.

Next thing was, Lee's eyes grew wider than the usual then he lost consciousness.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Another shout came from Lee. Bothering everyone in the Ramen house.

BLAG! Lee fell over his seat.

"Are you okay?" Kiba asked Lee and reached his left hand to him. Lee was about to hold Kiba's hand when he saw what Kiba's right hand was holding.

"WHAAAAAAAA!" Lee ran away with rapid succession.

"Eh? Odd, ne?" Kiba smiled at Chouji.

"Hehe. You forgot to let go of my hand. It scared him." Chouji smiled back at Kiba.

….

…

Lee was seriously scared of coming home and discovering something that he didn't want to find out. He decided to walk a bit in the park. At least, it was calm there. No one or even nothing to remind him of the yaoi issue.

He sighed as he sat on the bench. Closing his eyes, he tried to clog the bad thoughts with happy memories. Like perhaps his trainings with Sir Gai or that time he and Sakura had the chance to go on a date. A grin appeared right on his lips.

That was ended by something he started hearing from behind the bushes.

"Are you mad at me or something?"

"No. I'm just busy that's it."

"Too busy to be with me?"

"Not that."

"Then what?"

"Just shut up and give me a kiss."

"Mhmm!"

The familiar voices scared the hell out of Lee. He slightly had an idea of who the people behind the bushes were. But the thing is, he didn't want to believe it. Lee backed off a bit then ran away 'again.'

Neji eyed the running Lee with dismay. "Great. Now he found out and he's going to tell everyone about us."

"Like I care. Come here." Gaara pulled Neji back to the bushes to continue their 'thing'

"Naughty…"

….

….

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM! WHY ARE THEY ALL SO NOT NORMAL!" Lee was so careless, he almost fell in the canal. Thinking that he was going to fall, he walked a few steps away from the canal and ended up stepping on wet cement.

"SHI… ARGH!" Lee had no choice but to face his fears and go home or he'll end up like some memorial statue.

Lee didn't want to discover anything so he closed his eyes, covered his ears as he opened the door with full force.

"Hey, Lee… Oi? Lee!" Naruto shook his friend.

Lee slowly opened one eye and then did the same thing for the other. The image that came into his view was Naruto who had his shirt on. And it seemed more like Naruto was still in search for the wallet.

"Naruto! Just you?"

"What do you mean 'just me'? I'm all alone in this house, except for that ghost you told me right there on the other room."

"Oh yeaaaah. Of course! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Lee laughed idiotically and started inventing reasons to cover up for what he saw that day.

"Kiba was only holding Chouji's hand because… blah blah… and that wasn't Neji and Gaara in the bushes. Probably some kids playing in the park… ahahahahaha!" Lee proceeded to his room.

"Huh?" Naruto scratched his head and then noticed that one of his buttons snapped out. He smiled naughtily and went to his room.

Before Lee reached his door, he walked a few steps to check how Sasuke was doing. Then and there he discovered that Sasuke was asleep. Lee went closer to check what Sasuke was holding in his hands.

Lee didn't see a wallet but rather a hanky. Relieved, he went to his own room.

Sasuke stood up and pulled the small rose petals from the handkerchief and turned red.

So what really happened that afternoon wasn't just in Lee's head after all…
