Chapter 5

And if a girl walks in

andcarves her name

in my heart

Iturn and walk away

Neji paused, taking in the spectacle in front of him...but only for a second before he quickly crossed the room, grabbed Sasuke's collar, and heaved the other brunette across the room. Sasuke hit the wall with a thud, all his breath coming out in a loud 'oof'. Naruto scrambled up off the bed, and tried to hide as much skin as possible with his torn shirt.

"Get...The...FUCK...Out..."Neji grunted, trying, unsuccessfully, to reign in his anger. He clenched his hands, nails drawing blood. This bitch had better leave right now, or a week later, someone would finally notice the smell, and come in to find a lovely little smear of Sasuke across the wall.

"This doesn't concern you." said the brunette as he gingerly picked himself off the floor.

"That might be a little more convincing if you weren't in my room. Neji shot back. Both boys glared at each other for a while, until Sasuke backed down, and sidled out of the room, shooting back one last glare before closing the door.

"Naruto...what the hell was that?" Neji asked as he turned around to face the blond, but instead of an answer, he got an eyeful of naked-Naruto-chest, seeing as how the smaller boy had given up on trying to salvage the shirt and just chucked it on the floor. A rush of blood went to his...nether regions (author giggles at this point) and some almost came out his nose...Scratch that, it did, as Naruto flopped back down on his bed, stretched out and looked up at him with his "come hither" eyes. Yet Neji was too busy staring to notice. Naruto did, though, and laughed a little at Neji's predicament.

"Well, you see, it really is a long story..."

Well, it turned out to be a really long story, filled with useless information that was typical to Naruto, but the gist of it was that Sasuke and Naruto used to date, with Naruto emphasizing the "used to" part, and that Sasuke's brother, who had killed Sasuke's whole family ('So that's where he gets it from!' thought Neji), was now trying to devastate his little brother's life, and was now trying to get to everything that was near and dear to him... which somehow included Naruto, though Naruto obviously left the other boy. Neji wondered if Sasuke still had feelings for Naruto, which would explain the glares, if his bitchy personality didn't already.

"Well, that's about it..." Naruto finished.

Neji blanched. "Is that all you have to say when there is some sort of psychopathic killer, who had no qualms in just randomly killing his whole family, is now targeting you!"

"What do you want me to do, write a will?" Naruto retorted.

If possible, Neji got even paler. "And you're telling me that Sasuke ripped your shirt, and was mounting you on MY bed just to warn you about this?"

At that Naruto flinched, and looked at the floor, "Ahh, y..yes" He stuttered out, blushing faintly, which Neji thought to be endearing. "...Sorry 'bout that..."

Neji. in turn, just leaned forward and lightly touched his lips to Naruto's. Naruto gasped at the sensation, and then kissed back, revealing in the pleasure of the contact. Neji pulled back. "You know I was worried shitless when I walked in here to find that bastard on top of you, and then you go and tell me that a serial killer is after you because of him, and you expect me not to kill him..." Neji remarked lazily.

"Hey, I got first dibs!" Naruto shouted in his ear, causing Neji to jump at how loud that idiot could be. As he moved backward to look at Naruto's face, the blond grabbed his arm and pulled him down into a kiss, a slow luxurious one, with enough time to take a breath in between so they could keep kissing like that forever. Neji lost all coherent thought, and the next thing he knew, he was pinning down the blond onto his bed, as the smaller boy squirmed a little in his arms.

"Knock Knock! Pizza's here if you guys want some...and I know Naruto's in there!" Kiba's annoying voice rang throughout the room. Naruto groaned and shoved a petrified Neji off him.

"I'm hungry, will you lend me a shirt so we can go out there and get some pizza?"

"Sure" Neji grumbled, his body protesting at the loss of warmth. He shuffled on over to his dresser and pulled out his one and only orange shirt and chucked it at the boy. The only reason he had ever bought that shirt was because it reminded him of that little idiot, and was pleased to hear Naruto's little exclamation of joy at seeing the divine color. "Neji, I didn't know you liked the color orange!" He said excitedly.

"I...Nevermind..." Neji was pretty close to telling him that little secret, but didn't know how the blond would react. But by then the blond was already bouncing out the door towards the smell of pizza.

"Sure, it's not ramen, but pizza really is a nutritious food, you see, you've got the carbs, the dairy, the meat, and fat categories down with one little piece, so you really can't go wrong!" Naruto was explaining his outrageous diet to a very uninterested Kiba, who kept making side glances at Neji as if to say "dear god, help me!" but Neji wasn't going to save the boy anytime soon, his silent revenge at how Kiba had interrupted them earlier while they were...uh...yeah...making out.

"But ramen on the other hand..." It was going to be a looooong night...

The next day at school was an almost pleasant experience. He had gotten to go and play cards with Naruto and Tsunade-sama again, under the facade of finishing the paperwork they were assigned as punishment. It was almost lunch time as they finished up, Naruto the grand champion, Neji in second, and Tsunade deadlast. Who would have thought Naruto to be so very good at gambling...

They were both heading to the lunch room when Naruto suddenly blurted out that he had to pee. As he raced of to the men's bathroom down the hall, Neji followed behind at a slower pace. When he reached the door, he stood outside waiting for Naruto to come out. Suddenly he had a very bad feeling as he felt something tug at the sleeve of his uniform. He whirled around to see a girl standing behind him, looking extremely shy as she shoved a letter into Neji's face, and started babbling.

"Neji-sama..i've..I've always liked you...and ...I hoped..." Neji started to reply to her when all of the sudden she threw herself at him and attacked his face with hers. Coincidentally, this was the exact moment Naruto exited the bathroom, ready to make some disgusting comment that was hilarious only to him. Neji watched Naruto's face when he saw the girl kissing him. He thought he saw something spark in the younger boy's eyes, but it was gone before Neji could figure out what it was.

"Hey, get a room!" Naruto remarked loudly instead. This brought the girl that was clinging to him back to reality. At least she had the decency to look mortified. Neji turned and started to walk away from the girl.

"N-Neji-s-s-sempai?" She blustered out, talking to the boy's back. Neji was just going to ignore the girl, as he always did, but Naruto nudged his arm and looked up at him admonishingly. 'Naruto...sometimes I hate what you do to me...'

"I'm sorry, but I don't like you that way. He said coolly

"I-Is there somebody else...t-t-that y-you like!" The girl blurted out again. Neji was surprised at her audacity. Then he looked straight at Naruto and said, "Yeah, there is..."Naruto blushed.

The final bell had rung, signaling that school was over for the day. A very bouncy Naruto followed Neji across campus to his dorm. "End of the daaay!" Naruto sang, loudly and very off key. "End of the day! Eeeend ooooffff the DAAAAAAAAY! NOW IT'S TIME TO PLAY" Sometimes Neji wondered about this boy.

"Hey Neji-kun, aren't we nearly done with the class trip papers yet?" Naruto asked excitedly.

"...No."

"Hey! why not!"

"...because we're not...we still have to get everything finalized, then make sure we have all the student's permission slips, and other such menial tasks"

"And you have to do this all the time?"

"...yes."

"...sucks to be you"

"That's the understatement of the year"

"Huh?"

"Nevermind..."Neji looked away from Naruto, and focused on opening the door to his room...how he ever got here while staring at Naruto(Author says: More like molesting him with your eyes, perv) the whole time he would never know.

Both boys entered the room and Neji locked the door behind him. Naruto was just about to question him when there was a loud banging on the door.

"Hey Naruto! You in there! I KNOW you are! Where's that damn money you owe me!" Neji nodded at the door, as the boy outside had unknowingly given him an excuse.

"...Oh...I see...good idea..."

Neji smirked at the little flush that had appeared on the boy's face.

"NARUTO! GET OUT HERE DAMMIT!"

"Shut up Konohamaru" Naruto responded weakly to the boy that was currently making a fool of himself on the other side of the door.

Neji's smirk widened as he cornered Naruto against the wall beside the door. "What was that 'oh...I see' about?" Neji pressed a little closer. "What did you think I did that for?"

Naruto looked into the almost predatory eyes of the boy above him and squirmed. "Umm, well...umm"

"Oh, I know EXACTLY what you were thinking...and...I think you have the right idea..."

Naruto flushed a crimson red when he heard Neji's words. His eyes widened to an unhealthy size and Neji enjoyed every minute of teasing the boy. He bent down to kiss him, and to his surprise Naruto responded by kissing him back, hard. Neji gasped at the sensation, and Naruto took that opportunity to slide his tongue into the other boy's mouth. As Naruto started whirling the tip of his tongue against his Neji let out a loud moan. Naruto attacked more fiercely, until he breathlessly pulled away and said "b-bedroom"...Neji was floored
