Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, or any of the characters. Yet…shifty eyes

Thanks for the reviews, I really appreciate them! So I know I won't be writing this fic for no reason, I'll only write the next chapter if I get at least one review the previous chapter. If no one's reading it, why write it? So be sure to review if you want me to continue. And there are going to be two point of views starting this chapter. Naruto wakes up to find everyone acting completely opposite their nature. It's not really a different world, or reality just..yeah. So…

Naruto's POV: The opposites reality/world/place

Sasuke's POV: The original reality/world/place

Hope you got that, little hard to explain. XD On to Chapter 2!

Chapter 2: Bumped Heads?

--- (Naruto POV) ---

My good dreams are interrupted by an annoying, ongoing beeping noise. Realizing that it was my alarm clock, and I had to get to school in an hour, I reach out a hand and hit the "Off" button. I get up and get ready for school, putting some bread in the toaster, fixing and gelling my hair, brushing my teeth, putting on the usual orange clothes, eating the popped-up toast, and rushing out the door.

Iruka gets to school much earlier than I do, so he can clean up the class room a bit and get his classes for that day ready. When I get to the main entrance to my high school, I'm expecting to see Lee, Neji, Kiba, and Shikamaru all sitting around waiting up for me as usual, but they're not there.

I pause and look around for a few seconds, students moving around me and into the building, to see if they were going to jump me or something. No sign of them. So I join the students trailing inside and instead of my four usual friends, I'm greeted by Hinata-san, probably the shiest girl in school, walking up to me and punching me playfully on the shoulder and grinning from ear to ear.

"Hey, Naru-chan!" she all but yells. "What took you so long to get here this morning? You kept us all waiting, come on!" With that, and another punch to the shoulder, she walks off to homeroom (Iruka) that she shares with me. What exactly is going on? Hinata and I have barely said ten words to each other all year and she never acts like this. She usually has trouble getting out the first word out of her mouth, while she nervously taps her index fingers together and blushes.

She leads me to the back row and to the corner of the classroom, where Shino, Gaara, and Chouji are all sitting in a group and waiting for us to join them. Shino is a quiet guy that wears sunglasses, even inside, and has a little bug fetish. Chouji is nice; we talked a few times but not much. He loves to eat. And Gaara is what surprises me. He's what you would call a bully. He tries to pick a fight with anyone that gets too near, so we all know to stay away from the raging pale boy with blood-red hair, eyeliner, and a kanji meaning 'love' on the left side of his forehead.

Hinata, showing no sign of hesitation whatsoever, strolls right over and takes a seat on her desk across from Gaara. I, however, do not have a death wish; so I just stay standing there staring at them like they're on drugs. Which they probably are.

Hinata looks me and then away, then does a double-take when she realizes that I'm not going to move an inch. "What's wrong with you, Naru-chan? Are you feeling okay?" The others give me weird looks as well, and I shuffle over to them and take a seat.

The others get into a conversation about last night's TV show. I don't even try to listen; I just look around the room and try to figure out what the hell is going on. I spot Sakura and Ino sitting in the front of the glass, pouring over a… What the hell are they doing reading over Orochimaru's biology textbook like it's the seventh Harry Potter? Sakura turns her head slightly, and I notice she's wearing glasses, and that students coming in were avoiding them like the plague. Whatever…I'm not sure I want to know.

"Kiba, Shikamaru, Lee, Neji!" I call out, finally spotting my friends enter the classroom. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Gaara, Shino, Chouji, and Hinata look at me strangely. "Why weren't you at the entrance to the school?"

My friends stop and stare at me strangely, along with the rest of the class. "What are you talking about?" Kiba asks, talking over Gaara's, "Why are you being so loud?" and leaning away as if I was about lunge at him and kill him or something.

I don't know what to say to this, so instead I just let my jaw drop. After a few seconds, I gain my thoughts back. "What's with everyone? Is this some kind of stupid prank! If so, it's really stupid! Like," I spin around and point at Gaara, "you! Since when are you so social? Yeah right," I snap. I'm not exactly having the best morning.

Shino chooses this moment to stand up, clasp his hands on my shoulders and shakes me roughly. "Naru-chan, calm the hell down. Did you get up this morning and bump your head? And like Gaara said, quit being so loud. It's not you."

Once again, I'm speechless. Since when am I so loud? I know the reason a lot of people hate me is because I'm so loud. It's just me. Loud, annoying, and optimistic equals me. Naruto Uzumaki. I give up and choose to play along, if this was a game. Something still didn't seem right.

"Yeah, sorry guys. I'm just…" I trail off, leaving an odd silence in my group of "friends." Kiba, Lee, Neji, and Shikamaru are sitting across the class room, shooting odd glances at me every few seconds. Iruka hasn't arrived yet.

I snap to attention when Gaara pokes me. I jump and flinch, but Gaara just laughs. "Funny, Naru-chan." I zone out again, the rest of Gaara's sentence drowned out. What's with this Naru-chan all of a sudden? It's really irritating. "Naru-chan?" I pay attention to Gaara, who's been asking me if I've seen Sasuke.

"Why would I know where Sasuke-teme is? I don't keep track of that bastard," I huff, crossing my arms and leaning back into my chair. Chouji, oddly not eating something, gives me an odd look. I'm getting a lot of those this morning.

"Bastard? Did you two have a fight or something? You guys are so close, I've never heard of you getting into a fight with each other once."

"Friends? With him? Yeah right," I once again huff. Just then, the door slams open and the topic of our conversation runs in, grinning. I haven't seen him smile since we were seven. Before I can blink, Sasuke jumps at me and hugs me tightly, cutting off my air supply.

What.

The.

Hell?

The rest of the class is starting to take out their math books, pencils, and calculators, as if this happens everyday. Hinata, Gaara, and Chouji just shrug. "Guess they're not fighting," Chouji mutters.

"Ohayo!" Sasuke yells to the class. Right in my ear. He's now sitting on my lap, his legs wrapped around my waist, and I fight to keep a blush down.

Iruka strolls into class, his eyes closed while he rubs the bridge of his nose. Without even looking at us, he says, "Alright class, settle down. Sasuke sit down. And not on Naruto-kun's lap. Turn to page 225." With that he picks up a marker and begins to write on the board. This is going to be an unusual day.

--- (Sasuke POV) ---

I stroll into my homeroom, early as usual. Even Iruka-sensei isn't here yet. I have always been an early person. I wake up at five in the morning, even on days there is no school. And I'm always in homeroom before anyone else, even the teacher.

I sit in the back row, scanning through today's lesson, when I hear the door open. "Ohayo, Iruka-sensei," I say in a bored, monotone voice that I always talk in. He makes us say that, even though I hate talking, period.

"Oi, Sasuke-chan. You're here early." My eye twitches at being called Sasuke-chan, and I look up and I'm surprised to Naruto. For once, he's not wearing orange. He's wearing a light-brown hoodie with slightly baggy jeans.

"If you value your life, dobe, don't ever call me that again," I snarl, returning to my scanning. Instead of turning red and yelling insults at me, which always results in a verbal fight between us, he just looks at me and then sits in the desk to my right.

"Bad morning?" Naruto asks, resting his chin on his hands and looking at me from out of the corner of his blue eyes. I glance at the scars on his face; he's had them ever since I can remember. Three thin lines, like whiskers, on each cheek. They're kind of cute, but I'd sooner die than say something like that out loud.

Before I can realize it, Naruto's face is right in front of mine, barely an inch apart. "Oi, Sasuke-chan. Are you okay, do you need to go to the nurse?"

I narrow my eyes dangerously, giving him my signature glare of death. "I suggest you get your face away from mine and stay out of my business, usuratonkachi." For a moment, there's a flash of…worry?...in Naruto's eyes then he sits back down in his own desk.

The room is filled with dead silence until the other students, along with Iruka-sensei, arrive. "Ohayo, Iruka-sensei!" the class choruses, me not included. I just stare straight ahead, but Iruka doesn't seem to notice, thank God.

Wonder what's with the blonde dobe today? He's not loud, obnoxious, and hyper as usual. He's…normal.

I barely stop myself from groaning when Kiba, Shikamaru, Lee, and Neji walk over and sit at the desks around Naruto's. "Hey, Naruto, what are you doing over here next to this asshole?" Kiba laughs, raising his hand up for a high-five.

Naruto just stares at Kiba, then looks around the room and notices some other people. To my surprise, he gets up and walks over to Hinata, Shino, and Chouji, who was eating chips.

"Hey guys, why is Gaara sitting by himself? And something's wrong with Sasuke," he says, settling himself into a desk next to Hinata. A blush spreads immediately up her cheeks and she plays with her two index fingers.

"H-h-hello N-Naruto-kun," she whispers, while Shino nods to Naruto, looking like he could care less why he was over there talking to them. Chouji, loving the chance to get to know him, grins and says good morning.

Naruto looks at them strangely. "Um..guys? What's wrong? Gaara's sitting by himself looking deadly, Sasuke looks moody, Hinata's blushing, Shino's quiet, and Chouji's eating chips. What's up with everyone?"

Shino just glances at Naruto; at least I think he does. It's hard to tell behind his sunglasses. The rest of the class is listening in as well, while Kiba and Lee look confused beyond belief. Even Shikamaru and Neji are showing emotion, with their jaws hanging open slightly in disbelief.

"N-Naruto-kun," Hinata whispers, the blush never fading away. "Gaara-kun al-always sits b-by himse-himself."

Now even I'm confused beyond belief, and it seems so is Iruka-sensei, who's Naruto's guardian. He's staring at Naruto, as well. Kiba decides to jump up, walk across the class room, grabs Naruto's arm and drags him back over to the others. They pass Gaara, who's been acting like he hasn't been listening but he has, and he sneers at Naruto, who looks unfazed at this.

"What's wrong with you, man? Did you fall out of your bed and hit your head on the side of the bed again? Only harder?" Kiba whispers harshly. Naruto just cocks his eyebrow and shakes his head. He opens his mouth to say something, when the bell rings and Iruka-sensei starts class.

I let my thoughts wander as he lectures, but half-way through class I'm surprised, again, when Naruto raises his hand and gives out a correct answer to Iruka-sensei's question. He's acting very different. Not loud, not jumping around, answers a question correct in class. It's like he's not even Naruto, it just looks like him.

When the bell rings, signaling us to leave for the next class, Naruto stands up and turns to me again and smiles. Not his huge, toothy smile where his eyes squint up, but a real one. "I'll meet you in the locker room, okay, Sasuke-chan? You can tell me what's wrong, I'll help."

I just stare at him, shocked. Not knowing what to say, I glare at him. "Hn," I grunt, walking away towards the door. Sakura and Ino, as usual, choose this time to cling to my arm and squeal.

Before I can get outside the classroom, I notice Kiba and them asking Naruto questions. "Why are you talking to Sasuke for, man?" I feel Sakura yanking on my arm, pouting. But once again, that unwelcome feeling that's both unwanted and unneeded tugs at my heart when I hear Naruto's answer.

"He's my best friend."

Well, here's the end to chapter 2. Hope you enjoyed, and I'll repeat myself. If I get at least one review for this chapter, I'll continue to write the next one. Why bother writing a story nobody reads? Constructive criticism is welcome, but flames aren't.

Reviewer Responses:

Guardian of the Hell Gate- Sorry for not including Glomping Sasuke in chapter 1. You see him in this chapter, and I promise there will be more. ;)

Vwcasey- Ahh yes, sorry. I'm a Kakashi x Iruka fan, as well as Sasuke x Naruto. There will be some yaoi in this story, I'm sorry I didn't put it in the summary. I changed that though, so people won't be offended. Once again, I'm sorry if I did offend you, and thank you for your review. )
