Note: I don't own Naruto. But I love Uchihas. x)

The blonde yawned, covering his mouth. It was his turn for guard duty. ANBUs were supposed to have guard duties at least once a week. He was alone as his partner, Shikamaru, was on annual leave. He was told that someone else would be assigned to Shikamru's post.

" Christ, the substitute must be a newbie, lost somewhere." thought Naruto, the blonde. He glanced around. Whilst the rest of Konoha sleep peacefully, he had to do guard duty all alone. Usually, he and Shikamaru would talk about anything under the sun, slacking at duty. It was close to 3 a.m now, and the substitute still didn't reach yet. At 4 a.m, Hyuuga Neji and Hinata would then take over his duties.

"First thing that I'm gonna do when I wake up, is to ask Grandma Tsunade is which freakin' substitute was supposed to come, and I'll beat him (or her ) to pulp!", Naruto swore.

"Oh really?"

Naruto spun around. It was Uchiha Sasuke, raising one of his eyebrows.

"So you'll beat me to pulp then, Naruto?" Sasuke asked, mockingly.

"Yeah, I will," Naruto replied, " What makes you think I won't?" Sasuke smirked and walked towards him.

"Sorry, I was held up in an A-rank mission. Kakashi couldn't bare to leave the spy's hideout as there were many Come-come paradise books there." Sasuke rolled his eyes.

Naruto laughed, forgetting about Sasuke's late coming. They did their guard duty routines like walking round Konoha, in case any suspicious activities were held. Naruto asked Sasuke about all his missions. Naruto became an ANBU, but wasn't allowed to take missions, unless there was a lack of manpower. This is because Tsunade was afraid that the Kyuubi in Naruto might unleash again, if Naruto needed more strength.

"You aren't missing much Naruto." Sasuke said. "All these missions are nothing compared to the mission we had when we faced Zabuza."

"Yeah right," pouted Naruto. " You're just being nice, like Tsunade told all of you to."

Naruto then turned away, back facing Sasuke. Sasuke turned his back to Naruto and said nothing. He wasn't good at conversation anyways.Soon, Naruto's shift was over. Neji and Hinata then took over. Naruto and Sasuke then got down from their watch posts and walked back to their homes.

"Hey, dobe."

"Hm?" Naruto became used to Sasuke's habit of calling him dobe.

"Want to head over to my house for a drink?" Naruto looked at Sasuke quizzically. Sasuke never invited people to his house, the grand Uchiha Mansion. However Naruto agreed and followed him home.

TBC.
