A/N: I got bored. And so I came up with this… and I just had to write it. It just seemed so cute! Note, the timeline will be extremely inconsistent. Like, one chapter might be when Sasuke's five and the very next chapter will be when he's one. Also, for story purposes I might have to alter the timeline, like having Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan when Sasuke's like, one or two. Just for story purposes. So if you hate things like inconsistent timelines and things happening when they shouldn't be, I'd suggest reading a fanfic that doesn't have these things. 'Cause I'm not changing it so… too bad for you. But enough about that, let's get on with the important stuff..

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, any characters, etc. Masashi Kishimoto owns them. And I never will.

Anyways, enjoy chapter one!

Chapter 1: Sasuke (tries to) make a friend!

"AAANNIIKIII!" a little Sasuke screamed out. It's amazing how a four year old could be louder than a forty year old.

"….What?" Itachi asked, drowsily.

"Will you play with meee!" the little boy asked, with the cutest little puppy dog face.

Itachi looked at the clock. 7:50 AM, it read. Hid brother had to be crazy. Couldn't four year olds wake up at a decent time like everyone else? "It's too early. Let me go back to sleep." he moaned.

"COME ON! PLAY WITH MEEE!" the spiky haired kid shouted. Itachi was struggling to fight the urge to throw Sasuke out the highest window there was.

"Don't you have any friends that could?" he asked, trying to get back to sleep, hoping he'd fall unconscious.

There was a long silence. Sasuke was blushing so hard, that it made the rest of him look paper white, even though that didn't take much effort, because he was already pretty pale.

"You don't, do you?" Itachi continued. Now the upper half of Sasuke's cheeks was fire hydrant red.

It wasn't that no one liked him, he was just very shy. He waited for someone to come over and talk to him, but it just never happened. So basically he spent his recesses at school sitting alone on a swing, which was pretty embarrassing because he was the only preschooler without a single friend. He always relied on his brother, but he just couldn't figure it out that his brother wasn't going to play with him like a toy.

"Uuumm…. no." Sasuke replied, practically whispering the 'no' part.

"Fine, then we're going to find you a friend…. in an hour or two," Itachi said, falling right back to sleep. Sasuke just annoyed everyone else until the time came.

And guess what happened an hour later?

Sasuke ran into Itachi's room and jumped on him screaming "Aniki! Wake up!"

"What!" he said, jolting awake in pain.

"You said you'd find me a fwiend!" he informed, eager to have a playmate his age. (BTW, the 'fwiend' isn't a typo. I purposely made it that way.)

"Okay… just hold on. Let me get dressed," Itachi replied.

And so ten or so minutes later, they headed towards the park. "We're going to find Sasuke a friend," Itachi told their mom. "Okay," she replied.

The two boys looked around. It wasn't even nine, so there were very few kids around. But eventually, they spotted Kiba.

"Hi Kiba," Sasuke said as he ran to the boy. He looked kind of freaked out.

"Um… hi?" he replied.

"I like your dog," the Uchiha continued.

"Thanks," Kiba replied.

"I have a pet cat," he said, trying to make conversation.

"I hate cats," the boy replied.

And from that point, Sasuke had absolutely no clue what to do. He didn't ask his brother, because it would be suspicious, and he never saw him have anyone over. After a silent moment, and wondering why Kiba was still there, he decided to cut to the chase.

"Will you be my fwiend?" he asked. He was obviously hoping for a yes, but somehow felt he was going to say no. He waited for the moment to come.

"Why?" Kiba questioned. Sasuke took a breath of relief as he wasn't entirely going to say no yet.

"Because I have none and I wanted to know if you'd be my friend." he said.

"But I just met you," the dog lover replied.

"But we go to the same school," Sasuke said, trying to convince the boy. He never knew it was this hard to make one single friend. No wonder Itachi didn't have any!

"But still…" Kiba said as he walked away from the brothers.

Itachi sighed as they went to find another potential friend. Then Sasuke saw Shikamaru and ran up to him.

"Hi, want to be my fwiend?" he said, panting.

"Fwiends are too troublesome!" Shikamaru replied.

Sasuke was starting to lose hope. But he wouldn't give up yet! He'd try one more time.

As they continued walking around, they found Neji, and Sasuke approached him.

"Hi, will you be my fwiend?" Sasuke asked, practically begging for him to be his friend.

"No." Neji bluntly replied and walked away as soon as he finished his single word.

Sasuke sat on a curb, starting to cry, though it wasn't too obvious because his hands were covering his eyes. "It's no use! I'll never make a fwiend!" he said, practically having an emotional breakdown.

Itachi didn't know what to say. He never had to comfort anyone before. He put a hand on his younger brother's shoulder, saying, "Its okay… you'll make one sometime."

This didn't make Sasuke happy, however. His face was soaked with tears. This caused some people to stare at the two boys, though somehow once they saw Itachi they looked away and continued on with their lives. Then Itachi told Sasuke to get up wand he took the sobbing boy home.

"How did it go? Did you make any new friends?" the Uchihas' mother asked.

"No he didn't," Itachi sighed. Mikoto looked at Sasuke who was still crying. "Why don't you go play with him?" she said.

"Do I have to?" he asked.

"Yes!" she commanded.

And then the brothers went in their humongous backyard and played.

A/N: I hope you liked it! I thought it was kind of cute. I'm pretty sure this is the longest chapter I've ever written to date. Anyways, please R&R!

That's all for now!
