Postsecrets: The Naruto Chronicles

Disclaim: I don't own Naruto, and I'm not making any profit aside from my happiness!

With Naruto

While wondering why in the world Kakashi was wearing a ferret suit and looking for Gai, Naruto was also being amused with Lee for banging his head on the table. Sadly Sakura had to come along and stop Lee from said head-banging.

"Lee! Snap out of it! Now!"

"Sa-sakura?"

Sakura sighed. Why she was even in this classroom, she knew not. However, it had something to do with trailing a very strange blue ferret. Past that, she could not recollect.

"Lee! Why in the world are you banging your head on a desk?" Sakura asked/ screamed at Lee.

"B-because…" Lee started to tear up.

"Because-?" Sakura prompted him to continue.

"Because Gai is sick!" Lee exclaimed, before once again hitting his head on the table.

Sakura threw Lee a look, before once again pulling him up from the table. "Lee, if you keep hitting your head, I think you'll lose all of your brain cells."

"What's the point in living if Gai is sick?" Lee once again exclaimed, in agony.

"Lee, stop it!" Sakura yelled back. If Lee's screams weren't drawing enough attention to them, Sakura's yelling made everyone's eyes turn to them.

"Sakura… Y-you care!" Lee exclaimed, before throwing himself onto Sakura.

"Get off of me! I don't care! I just don't want you to die!" Sakura said, as she attempted to push Lee off.

"That means you do care!" Lee just hugged her tighter.

"No! I don't care!"

"But you said that you don't want me to-" Lee said, and was cut off.

"I don't want anyone to die!"

"Not even that girl?"

"What girl?" Sakura asked, confused.

"When you were drunk, you mentioned a girl… Called her a pig, too…" Lee said, sort of fading out as he spoke.

"Ino-pig? Well, I hate her, but I don't think I'd want her to die."

"Oh… Whoops."

"What do you mean, whoops?"

"I sent some woodland creatures to her door."

"How will that kill her, might I ask?" Sakura asked. She was clearly disturbed.

"Don't you know about how when little woodland creatures are sent to your door, you have bad luck?" Lee asked, in shock.

"Not… really…" Sakura was still disturbed.

"Well, I'll protect you from any strange woodland creatures, Ms. Sakura!"

"Lee…"

Poor Naruto had no choice but to stand there, listening about Lee's stories with woodland creatures. Maybe he had some problems when he was a child?

With Ino

Ino opened the front door, to get the mail. She saw a rather large box, addressed to her.

"What is this?" she pondered, as she opened it. She thought it best not to open it indoors, because of the rattling and scratching she heard.

A head popped out of the box. Then two heads. Then three. Before Ino knew it, twenty heads had popped out of the box.

"What the hell?" she looked at the heads once more. "Squirrels?"

The squirrels jumped out of the box, and latched onto Ino. As she got up to walk, the squirrels followed her. As she started to run towards the house, the squirrels kept up.

"Look, I'm sure you're very… nice squirrels, but I need to get into my home," she said, as she slowly back away from the squirrels.

The squirrels followed.

"Dad!"

Ino's dad came outdoors. If Ino was yelling that loudly, something must be wrong with the flowers. And if something was wrong with the flowers, he was out of business. His flower shop couldn't sell grass, after all.

However, when he got to the scene, and saw the squirrels, he laughed. "This is a picture-perfect moment!"

"No, it's not! These squirrels won't stop following me!"

"Oh, really?"

"Yeah, really!"

"Seriously?"

"Seriously!"

"Well, I think that they won't hurt anyone."

"They're hurting me!"

"How?"

"By staring at me!"

While the father and daughter argued, the devilish little squirrels were crawling up a tree, devising an evil scheme.

In fact, the head squirrel thought it was so evil, he grew a mustache. After all, a bad guy isn't a bad guy without a mustache.

With Sasuke

Shino was still mourning over the great loss of his policy debate box, Hinata was trying to comfort him, and Kiba was laughing. Sasuke could not believe the morons in his debate class. He thought this class would be the serious, quiet class.

He should have known better, when he heard the teacher was Iruka, and Kiba was in the class.

"M-my… debate…" Shino was very sad, and then, he lashed out at Kiba. "Who the hell do you think you are? This was my box."

"Shi-shino, don't hurt Kiba, p-please!" Hinata was freaking out. It wasn't often Shino got angry.

Kiba immediately ceased laughing, and began to put Shino's box back together. "Heh… heh?"

Shino glared at Kiba. "That's a start. Now, get me lunch."

"It's ten in the morning! You want lunch?"

"It better be pizza." Shino spoke in a silent manner.

"O-ok… Just don't hurt me!" Kiba ran away.

"P-perhaps you sh-shouldn't h-have b-been s-so hard on h-him…" Hinata said, stuttering.

"He deserved it," Shino said, as he began resorting files. "What was he thinking? A file about fungus should not be mixed with Darfur."

Sasuke had finished sorting his box, and just stared at the scene. He and Shikamaru were to be partners in crime for this semester. He prayed Shikamaru was not that insane.

At lunch

"Lee! Get back here!" Sakura yelled at Lee.

"What is it, Ms. Sakura?"

"We're going to attempt to make some progress with Sasuke and Naruto! Don't eat with them."

At Naruto and Sasuke's table, Naruto was complaining about eating lunch with only Sasuke.

Overall, nothing happened at the lunch, aside from Naruto spilling some skim milk on Sasuke's black shirt. As Sasuke walked to the bathroom, he received several questionable stares about the white stuff.

On their way home

Sasuke was still a little angry about the milk incident, which Naruto seemed to show no remorse over.

"So… Anyways, today I learned Lee had issues as a child," Naruto was still rambling about Lee. "Sasuke, are you listening to me?"

Sasuke stopped in anger for a moment. Of course he was listening to Naruto, even if Lee's childhood matters didn't worry him. "Yes."

"Then what'd I just say?" Naruto asked.

"Something about Lee's childhood issues."

"No! I said 'today I learned Lee had issues as a child'. Geez, weren't you listening?"

Sasuke turned towards Naruto, and stopped his words with a kiss. He started to lick Naruto's lip, who proceeded to let Sasuke in. After a few moments, he pulled back. He smirked.

"B-bastard!" Naruto was blushing.

Sasuke smirked. Naruto tasted yummy. "I'm not a bastard; my parents were married, thank you."

"Well, I-I d-don't c-care. I don't do it with guys!"

"Well, what was last night?" As soon as Sasuke said those words, he regretted it.

"The other side of the street."

"Huh?" Sasuke was confused. He did not like being confused.

"Walk on the other side of the street."

Sasuke wasn't to be swayed that easily. "I'm sorry, Nar-"

"Fine, if you won't, I will. And tell Iruka I'll be at Kiba's." Naruto turned heel, and started walking towards Kiba's home.

"Naruto…" Sasuke decided to give him some time alone and also walked on his way to the place he lived.

Later that night

It was 9:30, and Naruto still was not home. Sasuke and Iruka were both sitting in the kitchen, worried about Naruto. All of a sudden the phone rang. Iruka literally ran to pick up the phone, while Sasuke was still staring at the door.

"Hello?" Iruka sounded worried, despite his efforts to keep calm. Even though Sasuke had said Naruto would be at Kiba's, it wasn't odd for Naruto to lie. Especially to Sasuke.

"Hey, Iruka!" It was Naruto. Iruka sighed with relief. As soon as Sasuke heard Naruto's voice, his vision automatically switched from the door to the phone.

"Ah, Naruto. Hey." Iruka was obviously calmer, but Sasuke still looked as though he'd explode any moment.

"Could I stay the night here?"

"Naruto, it's a Thursday night, and you have school in the morning!"

"No, school's out tomorrow, remember? You just have to go in because it's a teacher workday."

Iruka sighed, remembering this. He hated teacher workdays with a passion. "Well, I don't see any harm done."

"Really? Thanks, Iruka!"

"Just be safe, ok?"

"Ok! Bye, Iruka!"

"Bye, Naruto. Love you."

"Love you too!"

With that, Iruka hung up the phone, Sasuke looking at him like he was insane.

"What was I supposed to do?" Iruka looked at Sasuke.

"Well, it's my fault. You should have told him I was sorry," Sasuke said. He got up and went to his room, and slammed the door shut.

"Iruka, what was that loud slamming noise?" Kakashi asked, who had poked his head out of his own room.

"Nothing. Just a hormonal teenager."

"Sasuke or Naruto?"

"Sasuke. Naruto is over at Kiba's," Iruka said, still a little sad about the lack of time he'd be spending with Naruto over the weekend.

Kakashi sensed the 'Iruka is sad' waves, and quite literally picked him up.

"Arg! Put me down!" Iruka was trying nearly everything to get out of the taller man's death-grip. Then he remembered.

"Put me down or the porn gets it."

"Now, now. You can't be serious," Kakashi whispered against Iruka's hair.

"Don't try me. You know I'm home more than you. I could strike at any moment."

Kakashi thought about it, and all the sides to the conflict. Side one said that if Iruka was serious, he was screwed. Side two said it would be nice to hold Iruka. And maybe he could do the screwing later. Side three just thought about porn.

Side one won out, but side three was a close second. Kakashi put Iruka down.

"Thank you, Kak-" Iruka was cut off by a kiss to his lips.

Kakashi made the kiss very short. As soon as he ended the kiss, he ran as quickly as he could to his room. He needed porn.

As Iruka heard the door shut, he stood there. Then he blinked.

"What the hell?"

He was answered with silence.

With Naruto and Kiba

"Thanks for letting me stay here, Kiba," Naruto said, as he stole a coke from the mini-fridge.

"No problem. But, might I ask what was going on to make you stay here?"

Naruto immediately blushed. "N-nothing."

"I think it's s-something," Kiba said, as he mock-stuttered Naruto.

"Well…"

"Well?" Kiba was very intent on hearing the reason. Hinata was supposed to come over to his dorm tonight. Naruto was the only thing keeping him from her.

"Kiba!" Lee burst in through the window. "Operation Sasunaru is going horribl-" Lee stopped in his tracks, realizing Naruto was in the room.

"Sasunaru?" Naruto looked at Lee, with killing intent in his eyes.

Kiba decided to attempt to cover. "No, he said 'Sassy are you?'! It's an attempt to get the girls to be less sassy!"

"No, I said Sasunaru," Lee said, oblivious to the cover-up.

"God damn you, Lee."

"What'd I do?" Lee looked confused.

"You revealed our plan."

"What plan?" Lee asked, still confused.

Kiba caught on, or so he thought. "That's right, there is no plan! Ha ha!"

"No, I remember a plan, now!"

Kiba realized there was nothing to catch onto. Lee was a moron. "Just shut up."

Naruto stood up, and bowed. "Thanks for trying to cheer me up, but I think I've overstayed my welcome. See you Monday." With that, he left.

"Do you think he realized we have a plan about him and Sasuke?" Lee asked.

"No, I don't. And you know what else I think?"

"What?"

"I think that leprechauns exist."

"I'm not the only one!"

"Lee."

"Yes?"

"Go home."

With Iruka

Naruto walked into his home. It was 11:06, but he wasn't the only one up. He smelled some cinnamon in the air. Iruka must be awake.

"Ah! Naruto! You're… home?"

"Yeah, I decided coming home would be a good thing. What're you baking?"

"Oh, I'm making some cinnamon rolls, and some chocolate chip cookies. Anything else you want?" Iruka asked.

"Nah, I'm good. Can I help?"

Iruka smiled warmly. It had been a while since Naruto was willing to bake with him. "Of course you can."

With Kiba

Hinata was sitting comfortably in Kiba's lap, while they watched a movie. "Kiba?"

"Yes?" Kiba said, kissing her ear.

"Do you think Naruto and Sasuke will ever get together?"

"I'm not sure, but I think anything is possible."

"I love you."

Kiba reassured her with a kiss. "I love you, too."

With Sasuke

Sasuke was still not asleep, because of the noise Iruka's cooking had made. However, when he heard Naruto's voice, he became happy. He wondered if he should go down to join them.

The door of the room next to him opened, and closed. Kakashi had evidently joined them. Sasuke hoped Iruka wouldn't give him too hard a job. After all, Kakashi wasn't known for his cooking skills.

He turned over on his bed. If he went down there, it would mean he was part of a family. It would mean the people in this house would be close to him. Would he really take that risk? After losing his own family by a murderer, was it wise to hold others close to him? What if the murderer cam back? What if… What if Naruto was hurt? There were so many 'what-if's floating around.

But, what if he never did get close to anyone again? Would that mean his brother won? Either way, it didn't look good. Maybe he should just use common sense and stay in his room.

However, something was going against all common sense as he got up, and opened the door. He walked down the stairs, and joined the cooking.

Even though he was covered in flour and dough, at the end of the night, with Naruto lying beside him, Sasuke felt at home for the first time in 9 years.

End Chapter

Well? Did I use good character development? Did I? (notices reviewers are pissed) Ah, I should probably tell you why I didn't update, huh? (reviewers nod) Ok, I have quite a few reasons.

One: Dance competition. As some of you may know, I dance competitive Irish dance. The next-to-last weekend of May, I had a competition, and I couldn't miss it. If I did, I think S-chan woulda killed me. The thing is, I had to stay (Mom and Dad were in Ohio) at a very Christian friend's house of mine. She was being confirmed into the church, so I spent a great deal of my weekend helping with that. I planned to update on Sunday, after my mom picked me up. However, her flight got cancelled, and I ended up staying at my friend's house until 2:00 AM. I had school the next day, so I couldn't update without killing myself.

Two: Right after the feis (competition), I had exams. The Monday I was in school was spent studying. The Monday night was spent studying. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: studying. Sorry about exams, everyone! Blame the school!

Three: Sleep. During the school year, I become deprived of this wonderful phenomenon called "sleep". I usually spend my summer sleeping away. Especially right after exams.

Four: Gaia. I've become obsessed. I'm sorry all, but there is some time I have to spend with my Gaia account! I hadn't been on in a while, so I got back on, and there were about 5 million things I needed to do! Avi art, friend requests, and all that jazz. So, I was attacked (noez!). By the way, if you wanna donate, send it to Demonchild203, with an underscore between Demon and child(it might make me update quicker!)

Five: Writer's block. I had no inspiration, and I had no cheese (Sibbie should remember this (hint: write this song for us, please.). Basically, I was not inspired to write anything. Until today!

So, I be sorry… But, to reply to you under-appreciated reviewers/ awesome people:
