It's been just about week since Sasuke has been to school, and he has spent that time well; just laying in his bed staring at the ceiling. He didn't even cry these last few days, he was just in such shock and disbelief that the only thing he was able to do was lie in his bed and stare at the ceiling.

Sasuke's face was blank, he appeared almost unfeeling but on the inside he was burnt and angry. He didn't know who he wanted to kill most, Naruto? or The Gum on The Bottom of His Shoe (AKA, Kirie Goshima)? Sasuke was defiantly hurt but he usually turns his hurt to anger and boy was he angry. But yet, he doesn't know if he is really angry at himself for letting Naruto slip away or angry at Naruto for being an oblivious idiot or Kirie for existing.

When Sasuke got home from school a week ago, Itachi was already home and Sasuke had just started walking towards his room. Itachi tried to speak to him and ask how his day went but Sasuke couldn't hear anything, he was just thinking about Naruto and the girl. Itachi got worried and tried to speak more but it didn't work, Itachi then grabbed Sasuke by his arms and asked him what was wrong and even though Sasuke had heard him, he didn't trust his voice and he didn't feel like talking anyway so he walked past Itachi and to his room.

And Sasuke was starting to get annoyed, Itachi had not stopped trying to pry answers from him but he had not spoken a word these last few days and Itachi was starting to worry so much he was scared.

Sasuke lied there in his bed, in the dark, just thinking about everything; his feelings, Naruto, how he can murder and leave no evidence, going back to school and Kirie. To say his brain was cluttered would be an understatement. Sasuke wanted to just forget everything for the time being, he wanted to just rest, his brain hurt. No, scratch that, everything hurt and he was tired.

Sasuke sighed and looked towards his phone, it was atop his night stand on the right side of his bed, he had turned it off after seeing Naruto and hadn't turned it on since then. He wonders if there are any texts but he is scared he'll see Naruto's name. He doesn't know if he can deal with that right yet but he wants to see what Naruto might have sent; like what he thinks of Sasuke's sudden disappearance. So Sasuke turns on his phone to reveal 9 messages from none other than Naruto and a few others from other friends. Sasuke scrolls through all the messages, they read:

Naruto

"Sasuke, u weren't at school today. U okaaaay?"

"Sasuke! What's up with u?"

"U sick teme?!"

"Answer ME! Dammit!

"SASUKE! THE HELLLLL?!

"bastard.."

"OIIIIIIII"

"Why won't u answer me, teme?"

"It's been a week already...If u don't tell me what's up, then I'm comin to ur house tomorrow, ya hear?!"

Suigetsu

"Sasuke, u sick or somin?"

Kiba

"What the hell u doin? Talk to Naruto, dumbass... he is driving me crazy!"

"Oiii! Dumbass!"

Sasuke sighed, what the hell was he supposed to do? Sasuke set his phone back down and leaned back onto his bed again stretching out his limbs but crossing his left forearm over his eyes as he inhaled deeply, what the hell was he doing? Crying over Naruto? Why was he being so fucking weak? This has got to stop, he might be in love with Naruto but he is tired of all this sissy stuff, all this crying and being depressed. Fuck all that. He was going to walk straight into school tomorrow, talk to Naruto, act like nothing has happened and stop being so damn weak.

Sasuke walked into school the next day and when he saw Naruto he almost went running back home. He turned around and started to walk back but stopped himself, "Shit! This is stupid. I'm not supposed to be this weak, fucking hell. Just turn around Sasuke, just Turn. Around." Sasuke turned back around with a determined look on his face and walked straight up to Naruto and started walking beside him as if he hasn't been gone for a week. He stuffed his hands into his pockets as his tried to control his mind and body.

Over the past week Naruto has been driving all his friends crazy, not only over worry but also being clingy since Sasuke was not there. Naruto had texted Sasuke several times and never received an answer back, so today he had made the choice that if Sasuke didn't come to school then he was going to his house to find out what the problem was.

Naruto was walking to his first class when he felt someone walking beside him, he turned his head and saw Sasuke, casually walking beside him as if he hasn't been gone for a week. Naruto stops and his eyes widen, his mouth opens slightly and he turns fully around to look at Sasuke.

"Sa-Sasuke?"

Sasuke stops and turns around to look at Naruto, his face showing no emotion. "Hn?"

"What," Naruto stutters, his face showing much confusion, "Where the hell have ya been bastard!?" Naruto screams having gotten over his momentary shock.

"Hn."

"Is that all ya gotta say, teme?!" Naruto says stepping closer to Sasuke.

"I was at home, dobe. I was sick." Sasuke replies rolling his eyes.

"Sick? What was wrong? Are ya okay now?" Naruto asked more seriously, finally showing his worry.

Sasuke internally smiles, seeing Naruto show so much worry over him is sweet. Why must he be dating that girl? "It was just the common stomach flu. Nothing to worry too much over." Sasuke replies turning around and walking towards their first class.

Naruto jogged up next to him, "Well I'm glad you're okay now," Naruto said pushing Sasuke in the shoulder, "you had me really worried, ya know." Naruto gave one of those 'I'm really worried about you but I'm glad you're okay' kinda laughs but then smiled brightly at him, the kind of smile that Sasuke loves. "Oh hey, do ya wanna sit with me and Kirie today? I really want you to meet her, she is also excited to meet ya." Naruto asks with a hopeful smile on his face.

Sasuke looks at Naruto, staring at his face. That bright blonde hair that just complements his skin tone, those beautiful kiss worthy pink lips that just shine when he licks them, and you can't forget those bright baby blue eyes that just by staring into them you get put into a trance. And he has got the most beautiful smile in the universe, the kind of smile that is brighter and warmer than the sun, that's so extremely kind and loving. But not only is Naruto beautiful but just who he is that is his true beauty and the biggest reason why Sasuke fell completely and madly in love with him.

Naruto taps him on his forehead, "Earth to Sasuke. Ya still there?"

Sasuke realizes he was just staring and that they had stopped walking, embarrassed he shakes his head and replies, "Yeah, I just zoned out. What is it you asked?"

"I asked if you wanna sit with me and Kirie today at lunch and in science?" Naruto laughs.

"Great...I guess I don't have much of a choice. If I ever wanna see Naruto then I'll also have to get use to being with Kirie." Sasuke silently sighs, wishing he was at home just reading a good book. "I suppose that'll be alright." Sasuke says finally replying.

Naruto pouts, "'You suppose' huh?"

Sasuke narrows his eyes, "Yeah. Problem, dobe?"

Naruto pouts even more, "You are supposed to be excited Sasuke, ya know! She is my girlfriend! Don't ya wanna meet her?" Naruto says wildly moving his hands in the air as he talks.

"I do wanna meet her." That was true, Sasuke wanted to meet her to see what kinda horrible person she is but he is defiantly not excited. "Let's go, I don't wanna be late."

Naruto smiles, satisfied with Sasuke's answer and heads off to their first class.

So far the day has been going well, it's almost like old times, just Naruto and Sasuke but now it's time for lunch and Kirie has their lunch period so Sasuke has to go sit next to the two lovebirds and be social.

"Yes! Finally! Lunch time is here! Lunch time is here! Lunch time is here! ." Naruto sings placing his hands behind his head as he walks.

Sasuke laughs at Naruto's excitement, "What's is the lunch bag?"

Naruto smiles and looks at him, "Homemade food."

Sasuke licks his lips, "Kushina's homemade food?" His stomach growls.

Naruto laughs and nods. "There is enough if you wanna share. You know she tends to go overboard with cooking food." Naruto smiles more brightly.

Sasuke internally pumped his fists in the air, "Yes, please. I love her food."

Sasuke followed Naruto to the table where Kirie was sitting and sat down across from Naruto who was sitting next to Kirie.

"Kirie! Hey! How is your day?" Naruto excitedly asks his girlfriend.

Kirie smiles warmly, a small that you know belongs to a girl looking at the boy she really likes. "It's going great, thank you. And you, Naruto?" She places her hand on his upper arm and looks at him.

Sasuke glares.

"It's going really good for me. Thanks Kirie." Naruto blushes a dark shade of red, not use to having a girlfriend or having anyone show any interest in him. "Oh yeah! Kirie, this is Sasuke. I told you about him. My best friend!" Naruto smiles as he points to Sasuke.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet you Sasuke. Naruto has told me a lot about you. I'm Kirie Goshima." She puts on a big smile, one similar to Naruto's but not quite as huge. She sticks out her hand to shake Sasuke's and chuckles some.

Sasuke shakes her hand and introduces himself, "Sasuke Uchiha, pleasure."

Sasuke watches as Kirie and Naruto delve into conversation and cracking jokes. Sasuke just listens and sometimes comments, actually including himself. And the more he gets to know Kirie the more he understands why Naruto likes her, they are similar. She is beautiful and kind, outgoing but also cute and shy. Sasuke smiles to himself as he watches the love of his life with his girlfriend but he can't find it in him to be mad or hateful, because Naruto is happy and Kirie is a great match for him. Sasuke smiles more brightly, showing his pearly whites. For the first time since he fell in love with Naruto, he is happy that he is with someone like her, someone who treats him with love and kindness, who is patient and caring. Someone who Naruto loves. So Sasuke, smiling brightly, showing an emotion on his face that he has never shown before, laughs, knowing everything will be alright. He knows he'll make it, because he wants to be part of their life, sharing jokes and laughs with them.

Naruto and Kirie look at Sasuke, Naruto face twists in confusion at Sasuke's random happiness and smiling and Kirie, not knowing how unsociable he is, just smiles, happy that Sasuke seems to like her.

Sasuke smiles and laughs as he looks at their faces, finally feeling a weight drop off his shoulders. Finally feeling relief.

Naruto smiles so brightly it was almost blinding, the happiness Naruto felt could not be described with words, for he was incredibly happy that Sasuke was smiling.

And Sasuke was happy with Naruto smiling.

HIIII! How did you like it? I figured Sasuke shouldn't hate on her and just enjoy life with Naruto no matter what. But I do have some plans for the next chapters, I want this tho be pretty long.
