Chapter Nine
Sasuke stumbed over a rock stupidly, and whimpered, falling to the cement of the cold sidewalk. "Ohh, owwww." He slowly pushed himself up, and looked around. "Hunh? Where'd Naruto go?" He bit his lip, and glanced around the deserted area, half-expecting to see the blonde boy somewhere. "Um? ...Crap."
Breathing heavily, Naruto reached the small abandoned treefort he called his hideout, and glanced back. "Hm. Looks like Sasuke couldn't handle my speed," he said with a slight laugh. He leaned against the outside wall, and crossed his arms, waiting for the other boy. "Sasuke sure is taking his sweet time," he muttered, sighing.
"Damnit, where'd he go?" Sasuke hesitantly took a step ahead, eyes darting around. "Oh, boy... Naruto?" A few people glanced at him, wondering why that boy would be looking for the annoying little blonde. He ignored the stares, and ran in the direction he last saw the other boy heading.
Teme. Where the hell did you get off to? Naruto sighed, and started back through the trees surrounding the run-down hideout. After wandering back out into the city, he ran into a few people as he searched for the other boy. A taller, black haired boy with a monkey tail passed by Naruto, mumbling something under his breath frantically about someone named 'Suki'. Wait. A monkey tail! He turned on his heels, and gazed at the boy a moment. "Hey!"
Tenjero jumped, and looked back, brown eyes looking surprised and angry. "Yeah, what do you want, kid?"
He stared at the boy a moment, then blinked. He'd seen him around before, but couldn't recall a name. "Might you have seen a... a boy my age with black hair, and-"
"No."
"But-"
"No." Tenjero started off again, running a hand through his spiky black hair, sighing and trying to remember what he'd been walking around here for.
"Okay then. Whatever," Naruto muttered, shaking his head with a slight sigh. He turned around, and ran straight into his would-be lover. "Oh! Sasuke! There you are! I found you!"
Sasuke glanced down, seeing Naruto. He raised a brow. "Suppose you did."
Naruto hugged him, nuzzling against him. The raven-haired boy gazed around, and blushed slightly, seeing a few passing and giggling, whispering to each other. He pushed Naruto away gently. "Come on, show me this place you were talking about anyway."

A/N;
Yeah, I figured I just needed an update.
My internet shut off on me, so I was writing, then my computer just had a tizzy fit on me and wouldn't work.
I had to have someone come down and look at it for me. xX
Tenjero is one of my friend's (Nicole Ham) characters. And Suki is mine. Thanks for lettin me use Tenjero, Nicole!
The idea for Sasuke to get totally lost was one of my other friend's (Kristina). Ah, what wonderful friends I have. XD
