Sorry about the short chapters. I'm trying to get better but I've been depressed because right after I posted the last chap. my dad sent the cow I've been feeding for a whole year that had become like a pet to me to the slaughter house…then tried to make a joke about it! But then my friend got me a Gaara and Kakashi cosplay outfits!
Disclaimer: I'm not putting anything sarcastic here this time because I found out through your comments that some of you really do read my random comments that I put up here while typing the story to stop from getting writers block…so I don't own Naruto…god damn it I started rambling again!
Chapter 6: Curiosity
"You are so lucky that your class is right next to my locker or you would be shit out of luck. You're already troublesome enough as it is." Shikamaru stated in a dull tone hoping to get rid of the blond nuisance that had attached itself to him with the threat of him fallowing him around for the rest of the day. "Alright your class is right their. Now leave me the hell alone for the rest of my life."
"I'm not making any promises…Thanks for showing me how to get here, even if I did have to kind of black mail you to." Naruto said as he skipped happily into his next class. Shikamaru happily embraced the silence that fallowed, that was until a loud shout, "I'll see you around alright!" and with that the blond once again disappeared from sight.
'Didn't I just basically tell him I never wanted to see him again?" Shikamaru thought as his left eye began to twitch. "How troublesome…" he murmured to the air as he rummaged through his locker before finally locating the item he needed and walked at his normal pace to his next class.
Sasuke paused in the hallway turning his head in the direction he thought he heard the voice coming from.
"Hey, what's the matter with you? Why'd you stop walking?" the long haired boy with clear eyes asked his somewhat friend.
'Damn, I'm out of it. I guess I just can't get my mind off thinking that Itachi and Naruto are plotting against Me.' he thought while shaking his head, trying to clear his thoughts away from his paranoid thinking process. "It's nothing I just thought I heard Naruto." he said without really thinking and realized too late the power those few words held.
"Who's Naruto?" the other asked in a sly tone while Sasuke winced at the expected question, once again realizing his mistake all too late again. "Ah, I see. How cute Sasuke has a girl friend…" the other paused a second to think and to enjoy the other's miseries. "Wait a second. Isn't Naruto a boy's name?"
Sasuke had begun to storm down the hall again when those words left his friends mouth. As soon as he heard them though, he turned around and glared, "Neji, enough. We're going to be late for trigonometry." and with that he turned leaving his friend standing.
'Hum, this Naruto must be really interesting if Sasuke getting all hot and bothered over one little comment. Seems like things are going to get interesting around here…' he thought as he moved quickly to catch up to his friend.
'I'm so bored who is this person anyway… And why is he looking at me…' thought as he lowered his head to the desk in hope of stopping the intense glare. It didn't work… "What is your problem? Why are you staring at me?" Naruto shouted as he glared at the other boy.
The other merely blinked as he continued to stare. He had jade green eyes and flaming red hair. He had no eyebrows and some strange tattooed. His uniform looked like it only met the minimal of requirements with its torn edges not to mention the black choker with spikes. 'Why the hell did I decided to sit here?' Naruto briefly looked around the room. 'Oh right, their was no other place to sit…'
"Alright class it seems that we have a new student today. Why don't you stand up and introduce yourself." the young chestnut haired teacher stated while glance back at the blond haired boy with a kind smile on his face, making it impossible for Naruto to tell the teacher to go fuck himself.
He stood up with a huff, "My name is Uzamaki Naruto, it's nice to meet you all." he said with his head bowed, which caused him to miss the look of pure shock that crossed the strange redhead's face.
"Come on, just tell me who Naruto is?" Neji pestered as they ignored their trig teacher.
"Will you just cut it out. You wouldn't even know him anyway." Sasuke said stubbornly as he stared at the equations that were being put up on the board.
"So it's a guy though." Neji stated innocently enough, even though he was trying to hold back a laugh as he saw his friend flinch. 'He's letting his mask slip a lot today…I just have to meet this Naruto person.'
"Wait…did you guys say Naruto?" a dull voice asked from the desk behind Neji's.
Sasuke looked back slightly curious as to why the lazy genius would bother speaking, let alone ask about Naruto.
"Yeah, what you know him or something?" Neji said looking back at him, hoping that he would contain more information than his friend who refused to talk. Sasuke huffed, 'Like he had any way of knowing Naruto.'
"I think that's the name of the new guy that was just in my health class. He had blond hair, blue eyes, and weird whisker like marks on his face. He was also one of the most annoying person I have ever met, he honestly never shut up. Does the Naruto you know sound anything like that?" he stared at the Uchiha hoping for some answers to some of his questions.
'That's impossible. There is no way their could be someone who sounds so much like my Naruto but Naruto himself. But he's at home with Itachi…Damnit Itachi!' the whole time Sasuke was thinking Neji was watching his expressions, 'Now I really want to meet him.'
Sasuke suddenly stood up and made a run for the door but that's were his trig teacher drew the line, talking he could take but trying to skip out of the room was pushing him too far. "Uchiha you best find your way right back to your chair this instant!" Mr.Asuma yelled at him causing Sasuke to think clearly and like a zombie walk back to his chair sitting their before he turned around again.
"Do you know what class he has this hour?" His voice was cold and serious, Neji and Shikamaru both flinched in fear.
"It's English with Iruka, he asked me to show him were it was at." Shikamaru said really regretting that his curiosity had for once gotten the better of him. 'I'm never getting involved in a conversation again…'
Sasuke gave them both one finally glare before turning to his homework not really even seeing it though. He only saw his brother's smirking face that morning. 'He's so dead when I get home… him and Naruto both!'
Naruto got a chill down his spine but decided to ignore it. "God this book is boring…" he whined as he closed the book but quickly picked it back up again as soon as he Iruka-sempai glaring at him. He looked over at the weirdo again, "Hey, does it get any better as you read on?" Naruto had decided at that moment that it was rude to ignore someone even if they we're a little weird…
The boy turned to him surprised, as was half the class. "…Not really." was all he said as he turned and begun to ignore the other. The whole of the class, including Iruka, was stunned and gaping at the boy as if he grew a second head. All of them thinking the exact same thing, how the hell had Naruto managed to get him to talk?
Naruto saw no problem since he was new and knew nothing. "Hey, so what's your name anyway?"
The boy turned and blinked at him, shocked at this stranger's boldness. "Gaara." was all he said as he stared at the familiar but stranger person next to him.
He blinked back before a grin broke out a crossed his face. "Cool! Mine's Naruto! It's nice to meet you Gaara."
Everyone in the classrooms breath was taken away as the saw the beautiful purity of that one smile. Naruto simply went back to reading his book, not noticing anything different.
"Itachi could you tell me again why I'm here and what the hell where doing." Kisame asked in an irritated tone. He had been friend with Itachi since high school and use to his hair brained ideas but this one just shot over his head.
"Why, we're preparing for Naru-chan." Itachi said in a sweetly creepy voice as the gleam in his eyes returned.
'Every time I have asked since he called me yesterday to meet him at the mall he had said the very same thing. Why do I even bother trying to get a straight answer from him? Although I am beginning to feel sorry for little Naruto…' Kisame thought for about the fifth time that day as he once again listened to Itachi's orders. 'He really wants to have this ready for Naruto tonight, poor Naru-chan…Damnit now he's got me calling him that.'
