Since I have no Internet connection, I'm going to type now and read later.

Naruto was waiting nervously outside the restaurant Sasuke had said to meet him at. It was one of those restaurants where you had computers and Internet access. It was one of a few of this type of restaurant in the city. However, his mind wasn't on this or Sasuke. His mind was on Gaara.

He wasn't stupid. Contrary to popular belief, he was fairly intelligent, at least when it came to some things, like Gaara.

Gaara had family problems, and that was an understatement. Naruto knew for a fact that whatever was under that bandage, it definitely didn't come from a fall. However, he could also tell when Gaara wasn't in the mood to talk, so he let it slide. He hoped Neji would help, somehow.

"You okay?"

Naruto was pulled out of his reverie by the appearance of Sasuke.

"I'm great, just some passing problems."

"Like?"

"Nothing major. Not worth sharing. Let's eat."

Sasuke examined Naruto's face. He could tell Naruto wasn't really as unworried as he was letting on, but it didn't really matter. They had more important things to talk about right then.

"Come on then. You've gotta see this."

"What?"

"You'll see."

They went into the diner; they were soon seated side-by-side in front of one of the many computers in the diner. Sasuke typed in the URL for the school's unofficial gossip site. The new hot topic, two pictures, and a small article. The pictures were of Sasuke and Naruto's sudden kiss at the exit of the dance and of Gaara and Neji at the park.

"How'd they…" Naruto's question trailed off as he read the small accompanying article.

Your star reporter and her ever-present camera has caught two moments to go down in highschool history. The two top jocks, the guys who rule the dreams of young girls everywhere, are totally gay. This reporter saw it with her own eyes and caught it on camera for all to see.

So, what do you think? The two top jocks and two complete nobodies together. The social ladder has been seriously disrupted, so what do the students think?

A new forum has been opened for further discussion.

"What…"

"Oh, it gets better."

Sasuke clicked on the link to the forum.

"Twenty-one pages!"

"I think it's a new record, but I'd have to check."

"Wow."

Naruto began to scan the millions of posts as Sasuke walked off to order some food for them. As he expected, there were many different opinions expressed, but they could be pretty much summarized into a few categories.

Complete Intolerance:

Posted by Sexy Bl0550m: I can't believe those jerks. It's crazy. They shouldn't act the way they do if they're gay. It's not normal. It's not right. They should be forced to leave the school.

Denial:

Posted by Babygirl21: There's no way this is the truth. I've loved those guys forever. It's all just a misunderstanding. That's all.

Jealousy:

Posted by GuyinBlack: I can't believe how lucky those two are. Landing the hottest guys in school. I'd love to get a piece of that.

Acceptance:

Posted by Laz3: it's their own decision. Besides, it's too troublesome to worry about anyway.

And finally, the largest category, Mild Tolerance:

Posted by Himynameis: it doesn't really matter. They like who they like. Well get over it. I don't like the idea of it too much, but as long they don't get overly couply in front of me, it is just another thing to be ignored.

Naruto continued to read the posts, and by the time Sasuke returned, he was smiling widely.

"What's wrong with you dobe?"

"Hey, that's not very nice jerk."

"Loser."

"Asshole."

"Oh, so you're expanding your virginal vocabulary now?"

"Idiot."

"I know I'm an idiot. Now, what's got you so happy?"

Naruto's grin widened.

"I never thought I'd be the hot topic on a gossip site. It's rather amusing if you ask me. These people have nothing better to do then talk about us."

"So it doesn't…bother you?"

"Why would you think it would?"

'I don't know…"

"Hey, I like you, you like me, and that's all that matters. I don't really care what the world thinks."

"You don't?"

"Not really."

"Thankyou… for that."

Mentally, Sasuke breathed a sigh of relief. He had been rather nervous that Naruto would want to break it off, but then now, he realized how dumb that fear had been. It also didn't take Naruto long to figure this out.

"You didn't think I would stop see you or something. Did you?"

Sasuke was taken aback. How did he figure it out? Naruto easily read his expression as a yes.

"Man, you really are an idiot."

"Hey!"

"You really thought I would leave you over something like this?" Naruto gestured towards the screen.

"I live in a world in which appearance is everything. What was I supposed to think?"

"That I like you, and I don't give a damn about them."

"I see, but what if that wasn't the case?"

"Well it isn't."

Naruto slowly leaned towards Sasuke, and Sasuke met halfway. The kiss was short lived.

"Look Ino the queer come out in public even!"

The two guys broke apart to see Ino and Sakura standing in front of them.

"Yeah Sakura, looks like the losers raised a rung on the social ladder. Now their, man-whores instead."

"Shut the hell up."

Sakura's mouth, that had been about to make another snide remark began to close as Naruto, who was now rather pissed off stood up from the table.

"You know, the last I checked, you guys weren't exactly in a much better category. Sluts. Get over your yourselves. He's mine. Got it? All mine. So, get your skinny two bit asses away from our table so my boyfriend and I can eat lunch in a bitch free atmosphere."

Sasuke mental note: Never piss off Naruto. Hey wait, did he just say I was his? I kinda like the sound of that…

Sakura and Ino stood there dumb founded. They had never been insulted so many times by one person before. They made a swift retreat, not saying another word.

"Nice."

"Thanks."

"So, if I'm yours, does that make you mine?"

"Maybe…"

Sasuke leaned towards Naruto's ear and whispered softly.

"I like the sound of it, my Naruto…"

Naruto leaned in closer so he was right next to Sasuke.

"So do I."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Shall we note, I don't hate Sakura. It's just really fun to make her into a bitch, and as for Naruto's little rant, well I'd just love to say something similar to a few choice people at my school.
