Chapter Nine:

Three days till…

"Kakashiiiiiii," whined Iruka, "Where are you going?" The lazy nin gave his lover a smile.

"I still have duties to do, I am their teacher after all." Iruka nodded and returned the smile,

"Checking up on Sasuke? I'm sure he's fine. I mean Naruto was taking care of him yesterday." Iruka sat up from the bed and eyed Kakashi who stood in front of the closet, pulling out his clothes.

"I have a feeling," he said as he tugged his shirt over his head, "That Naruto spent the night." Iruka's eyes quickly widened,

"W-W-hat!" The brown haired nin's jaw had opened wide, "No, no, no! Not my poor i-innocent Naruto!" cried Iruka as soon as he saw the amused look on Kakashi's face. The jounin laughed as he put on the remainder of his clothes. He walked around the bed to Iruka's side and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Iruka was still in shock. Kakashi stuck a hand in his grey hair,

"Iruka..." Large brown orbs looked back up at him,

"You don't think... Naruto would... y-you k-know... do you!" Kakashi let out another laugh,

"What? You think after seeing us make out, he was just going to sit around? He's probably trying the exact same move I was using on you on Sasuke right now."

"N-No!" cried Iruka in horror.

"Yes," said Kakashi, a perverted look gleaming in his eye, "And that's why I better get going." Then with a quick peck on the lips, Kakashi was gone.

"I don't see the point in my coming," said Shino as Kiba dragged him down the streets of Konoha.

"But you have to come," insisted Kiba, "You're helping me help Naruto before it's too late!" Shino sighed,

"Why is it so important that we help him anyway?" Kiba stopped walking and turned around. He gave a quick scan of the street before he spoke, no one was around. He gently covered Akamaru's eyes as he leaned up to give Shino a kiss on the lips. A tint of pink covered the dark haired boy's cheek.

"Not everyone is as happy as we are," said Kiba with a smirk. Akamaru gave a slight bark, in other words meant: 'stop making out in front of me!' Kiba gave a slight laugh,

"Sorry Akamaru." He uncovered the dog's eyes and let Akamaru jump out of his arms and onto the ground. Kiba felt the warm contact of Shino's hand as it brushed his own. Slowly, their hands intertwined,

"I am happy," said Shino softly, holding onto Kiba's hand ever so tightly, "And one day, we won't have to hide anymore." A smile on Shino's lips as he leaned forward,

"Kiba-kun! Shino-kun!" cried a voice interrupting them. They both quickly jumped apart.

"Ah… Sakura…" said Kiba slowly, exchanging looks with Shino. The pink haired girl had appeared from nowhere and ran up to them.

"Hey! Have you guys seen Naruto?" she asked with hopeful eyes. They both shook their heads,

"No, we were just about to go to his apartment. He's not there?" said Kiba. Sakura shook her head disappointed,

"I was just there. And I already checked the training grounds. I can't imagine any other place he'd be except Ichiraku's." This time Shino shook his head,

"We passed by there a moment ago. Naruto wasn't there."

"Oh," said Sakura, even more deflated, "I was hoping to talk to him… I haven't seen him since yesterday when he went off to go look for Sasuke." Kiba and Shino looked at each other again.

"Sasuke, eh?" said Kiba with a smirk.

"Yeah, why?" Sakura looked up, a slight curious look on her face.

"No, no, no. Nothing," said Kiba, "Good luck with your search Sakura. Shino and I are gonna go." Sakura nodded and smiled,

"Well if you see him, tell him I'm looking for him!"

"We will." Kiba led Shino away from the pink haired girl and ahead to an unfamiliar route.

"I see where you're taking me," said Shino after a minute. Kiba laughed,

"Maybe the idiot has realized it already but it can't help to… motivate him a little more."

Sasuke finally let go of the breath he had been holding in for so long. Naruto just kissed me! His inner Sasuke screamed, kissed me! His heart was pounding loudly in his ear. He had never been kissed before, well sure, there was that time at the academy, but that didn't count. It was harmless, unintentional. This wasn't.

Naruto had wanted to kiss him. What did that mean? His fever wasn't the only thing causing him to burn up now either. What the hell was going on? An Uchiha was always in control of their emotions.

What does this mean? Thought Sasuke, maybe I'm just imaging things. Maybe it's this goddamn fever. I mean, why the hell else would Naruto kiss me? It wasn't like it was on the lips of anything.

Sasuke unconsciously brought a hand up to his lips, I wonder what it would be like to kiss…

GODDAMN FEVER! He screamed in his mind as he tried to block out certain images that are… well not pg-13.

Stop blaming it on the fever, smirked inner Sasuke, you know you want him to kiss you.

Shut up! Sasuke cried back, why would I want the dobe to kiss me? Just because he's cute, has those mesmerizing eyes, untouchable blonde hair…

GODDAMN FEVER! Sasuke screamed to himself yet once again. He could hear Naruto's footsteps as he was walking back to the bedroom. Sasuke relaxed his body and pretended to be asleep again.

"Still not awake yet?" he could hear Naruto saying. Sasuke felt the weight change on the bed as Naruto sat down.

"I changed the towel for you. It seems like it's cooling down your fever a bit but your still burning," said Naruto. Sasuke wondered if the blonde always talked aloud like this. He could feel the blue orbs staring at him intently, he suddenly felt very naked. Well, he was pretty much naked, except for his pants and boxers.

A pounding knock came at the door. There was a sudden shift of weight on the bed.

"I wonder who is here," thought Naruto aloud as he ran off to answer the door. Sasuke was asking himself the same thing. Who would visit his house? There was only person who Sasuke could think of that would come to his house.

"Sasuke-kun." Maybe Sasuke really was delusional; he could have sworn he just heard that pervert's-

"You're more decent than I'd thought you'd be. Don't tell me you guys didn't do it yet?" Sasuke's eyes snapped open,

"Kakashi-sensei!"

"WHAT!" There was a sigh,

"I don't like repeating myself. I said, have you done it yet?" Kiba said impatiently while crossing his arms. He watched as Naruto's eyes widened and a faint blush that appeared on his cheeks in embarrassment.

"C-Come in," said Naruto as he held the door opened and gestured for Kiba and Shino to follow him. Naruto led them into the kitchen and took a seat on Sasuke's counter. Kiba and Shino followed suit and did the same. Then there was an awkward silence as Naruto looked down in his hands.

"I'm guessing no then," said Kiba. Naruto nodded, embarrassed to admit the truth.

"I h-haven't kissed anyone yet." A smirk appeared quickly on Kiba's face,

"What happened to Sasuke?" Naruto's head snapped up to look at the brown haired boy,

"What are you talking about!" he demanded flushing visibly, "W-Why would I kiss Sasuke!" Shino let out a sigh and finally joined the conversation.

"Cause you like him." Naruto quickly jumped off the counter, face as red as a tomato.

"I-I don't like Sasuke! I'm his r-rival! We hate each other!" he yelled back quickly. Kiba only laughed,

"Rival? More like lovers," he teased the blonde.

"Why you…"

"What? You can't deny that you want Sasuke. It's written all over your face!"

"Shut up!"

"Naruto and Sasuke… sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-"

"I'm going to kill you!" screamed Naruto as he leaped to pounce on Kiba but was intercept by Shino.

"Naruto, calm down," he said as held back the struggling blonde, "And Kiba, stop teasing him. You think he's going to listen to you while you tease him?" Kiba gave a slightly guilty look.

"Fine, fine…" he grumbled.

"Good," said Shino. He turned back to Naruto who was still thrashing wildly,

"Let me at him!" he cried eyeing Kiba.

"Naruto! Just listen to us first! Then you can attack Kiba."

"Hey! Some boyfriend you are!" cut in Kiba. Shino only smirked,

"It's your fault for teasing him."

"What? Are you jealous?"

"No…"

"You know I'd much rather tease you."

"Kiba…"

"Shino…" Kiba jumped off the counter and began walking towards Shino. The bug nin let go of Naruto and reached out his hand to find Kiba's. Slowly, they came together and-

"STOP WITH THE CORNY LOVE SCENE! I'M STILL HERE!" yelled Naruto. Shino just shrugged and continued hanging onto Kiba's hand.

"So what? We're only giving you a demonstration of what it could be like if you and Sasuke got together," stated Kiba. As Naruto was about to protest Shino cut him off,

"Look Naruto. I really couldn't care less who whether or not you like Sasuke, but Kiba insisted I come and talk to you. The sooner you listen, the sooner I can go home and make out." Kiba turned towards the dark haired boy,

"Heh. I always knew you were hornier than me." Naruto looked at them in disbelief,

"I'M STILL HERE!"

"Anyway, Naruto," said Kiba, "How many days left till your birthday?" Naruto's chin lifted slightly as he searched his mind.

"Well… one, two, three… three! Three days left till my birthday!" announced Naruto triumphantly. Kiba laughed,

"Well then, you have three days left to get kissed…" Kiba turned to Shino, "That's not a lot of time, is it?" Shino shook his head,

"Not at all." Naruto huffed,

"What are you two trying to say? I can't do it?" demanded Naruto. Kiba smirked,

"But can you Naruto? Since having found out three weeks ago, I seem to believe nothing has happened. Nothing. What makes you think you can get kissed in three days when you couldn't in three weeks?" taunted Kiba. The blonde's eyes began to squint, his face distorting in anger.

"I can so do it! Just you watch Kiba! And you too Shino! I'll do it! Or else my name isn't Uzumaki Naruto!" declared Naruto, hands on his hips a determined look on his face. Kiba sighed; Naruto's ever changing personalities was definitely tiring.

"Good for you Naruto. Only one problem." Blue eyes trained on him,

"What?" This time both Kiba and Shino smirked as they looked at each other,

"How you gonna get Sasuke to kiss you?" said Kiba.

"Kakashi-sensei," said Sasuke glaring, "Get out." The lazy nin only smiled behind the mask, it was quite a surprise to find his pupil sick in his bed. Then there was the fact that his other student was nursing him, taking care of him to get him better.

"Now, now Sasuke, you shouldn't be exerting yourself in this condition. You should really lie back down." Sasuke huffed and stayed as he was, continuing to eye his teacher.

"I mean it, get out. I want to be left alone." A flicker of amusement flashed in Kakashi's eyes,

"Left alone? Then what is Naruto doing here then?" The bed sheets began balling up in Sasuke's hand.

"Naruto came here to see why I was sick. Now he's left. And so will you." Kakashi stepped into the room and quickly found a wall to lean against before looking back at his student.

"Sa, Sasuke-kun, if I remember correctly, I did send Naruto here to check up on you." Kakashi's lips curved up as his smile grew, "But that was yesterday. Do tell your favourite teacher what you two have been doing until then."

Sakura had almost given up hope. She had tried everywhere. Everywhere she could think of, but yet she still hadn't found Naruto. She wanted to talk to him, and possibly get him to confess he liked her. If he did, then Sakura would of course say yes, go out with him and live happily ever after. A confident grin spread upon her face.

Now, if only she could find the blonde, then everything would be okay. But where was he? She had gone to every possible place she thought he could be. The academy, the training grounds, the Hokage monument... just about everywhere.

Except.

Sasuke's house. Sakura let out a slight sigh, she hadn't talked to Sasuke since that time. Since that time they fought. What would he say to her? What would she say to him? He knew she wanted to date Naruto but for some reason he didn't approve. It didn't make any sense. Wouldn't she be the one person he would allow?

Sakura's fists started clenching. WHAT THE HELL IS HE THINKING! Screamed inner Sakura, HE HAS NO RIGHT TO TELL ME IF I CAN OR CANNOT DATE NARUTO! With the thought of a missing boy fuelling her rage, Sakura picked up her skirts (not literally) and ran to Sasuke's house.

I'm going to get to the bottom of this, thought Sakura, and I'm going to make Sasuke understand that Naruto and I are right for each other. The female nin quickly approached the Uchiha compound and made her way towards the front door.

Calm down Sakura, she told herself, you're only going to make peace. If he refuses, then you declare war. She let out a breath and,

"Hello is-" she began but was cut off by a familiar voice that belonged to a certain blonde.

"K-Kiba! W-What are you talking about? I am so NOT going to do THAT!"


Ahhh! I have slightly died… but I'm coming back to life. To tell you the truth, I've fallen in love… Just like Sasuke and Naruto have. I know that's no excuse but... hehe
