Chapter 2

"MY GOD HE'S A GAY CLOSET PERVERT!"

Sasuke stood at the door, rolling his eyes.

"Welcome to Itachi's room dobe. You can sleep here."

"WHAT! Your brother was a gay closet pervert bastard too?"

"What makes you think that?"

"He had Women and Songs."

"Presents from fangirls and aunts. I got them too."

"So who gave him the entire Icha Icha Yaoi Paradise series that was under his bed? Jiraiya said they're rare collectors items. He doesn't like doing whole volumes without any nekid women at all… What are you doing?"

"You can't find these anywhere! I thought Kakashi had the only full set. Wow, he even had the art book!"

"Um, Sasuke?"

"What?" The Uchiha didn't look up from the manga, eerily reminant of the copy-nin.

"I wasn't serious. I didn't know you're actually a gay closet pervert."

"Yeah yeah. Don't bug me, I'm busy." Sasuke then proceeded to take all the yaoi to his own room, while reading of course.

Naruto collapsed onto Itachi's bed, glad at least to have Sasuke out of his hair. It was really weird to be sleeping in this bed. The target sleeping in the would be kidnapper's bed. Which sounded kinda wrong. Oh well. He went and found some pyjamas and put them on and went to bed.

"Dobe, you didn't brush your teeth." Sasuke yelled from the next room.

"Teme! I don't have my toothbrush or anything. You never let me go to my house and get stuff. If I was a girl, or you, I'd be pretty pissed."

"What was that?"

"I said, do yo have an extra toothbrush?"

"Of course I do. I put it out for you."

Naruto grumbled, but got up and ambled to the washroom. Itachi's bed was really comfy. He'd been just drifting off to sleep before Sasuke started yelling at him… Oh well, it was for a good cause. He liked to keep his foxy grin in top condition.

In the middle of the night, Naruto sat up and said, something is not right. (I also don't own that line, it's from Madeline.) He heard footsteps approaching his room. The door flung open and Sasuke bolted in and hopped into the bed under the covers.

"Uh, Sasuke?"

"Hold me Aniki, I'm scared."

"BWAHhahahahahahaha… Can't breathe, so funny! Hahahahaha! Sasuke, you sounded so cute! Do it again!"

Sasuke rubbed his eyes. "Aniki, why do you sound like Naru…Eeeek! I'm sorry Naruto, I had a nightmare, and you're wearing his clothes and and…" He started getting sniffly. "And you're in his bed and th-this is where I come when have um, nightmares." Sniff.

"Sasuke are you crying?"

The two boys looked up at eacother. One was in tears and mortified. The other had the roundest, cutest, disbeleiving eyes ever to pity Sasuke Uchiha. Naruto threw his arms around Sasuke protectivly.

"It's ok." He said, getting teary too. "I never used to have anyone when I was scared. But now I have you. And you have me. It's ok."

"Naruto get off me."

The blond let go and laughed. "I guess it doesn't take you long to go back to normal. But I like you better when you're all scared." He smiled.

Sasuke smiled too, a secret kind of smile.

"Sasuke?"

"What?"

"You went 'eek'. Like a mouse."

"If you tell anyone, I'll kill you. And whoever you tell."

"Awww! Not even Iruka? Or Kakashi? Or Sakura?"

"Anyone."

"You're no fun."

"I'm your nutritionist, I'm not supposed to be fun."

"So we can't be friends or more?" Snort. "I mean, anymore?"

"Yeah, whatever dobe."

"Um, are you leaving any time soon?"

"No."

"Oh, um, well would you?"

"No. I told you, this is where I come. And this is where I'll stay."

"Fine."

"Fine."

Silence ensued for quite a while.

"Your feet are cold teme."

No reply came, for Sasuke was (apparently) asleep.

"Aaww! You're all docile and sweet when you sleep!" Naruto whispered.

"Go to sleep Naruto."

Sigh. Naruto played with Sasuke's hair, it seemed very soft. "You've got pretty hair."

"I know. Go to sleep."

"You like it when I play with your hair though, don't you?" Not really a question, more of a statement.

"Hn."

"Sasuke?"

The dark haired boy turned over to see Naruto's face. "What?"

"Do you have a cush on me?"

Sasuke turned back over. "No."
