A/N: Hey I'm sorry guys that this chapter took a little while to get up here. I'm still helping my friend move and I've also been feeling a bit under the weather lately so I just haven't been in the right state of mind to write anything. I'll try and get more chapters up soon and also my other stories that I've been sort of working on. I might try my hand at a few song fics…
A/N: Yeah um….song fics failed…I ended up moving too. Started working full time….yes all the time and haven't had inspiration for this story in years. But the other day I randomly starting watching Naruto from the beginning and felt the spark again. So I re-read over my story a couple times, listened to Naruto op's and ed's then BAM I was writing! Old school writing too, with pen and a notepad, sitting in front of the tv watching Naruto.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto nor any of the characters affiliated with it. I do however, own this slowly progressing story concept and the character that I created.
The New Girl Ch. 7
Sudden Separation
The next morning Sasuke woke from the most restful sleep he had ever had, with the most pleasant feeling, the warmth of the person he loved.
'He's so fucking cute when he sleeps, I just want to take him right now. But I think I'll let him sleep, maybe I'll make him some breakfast in bed. Yeah that sounds good, I'll do that.'
Now that he actually thought about it that was the first time he didn't wake up in the middle of the night because of the nightmares. Wait… he didn't even have those nightmares last night! Almost every night Sasuke would wake up in a cold sweat, dreaming of the night his brother Itachi killed his entire clan and left him alive. Most of those nights he never could go back to sleep either; he would sit and try to think of the reason why his brother left only him alive.
Okay he needed to stop thinking about that right now, it was making him feel angry and he didn't want Naruto to wake to an angry Uchiha. Right well to the kitchen then; he gently pulled his arm out from underneath Naruto's head and climbed out of the bed. He dressed at the foot of the bed, watching Naruto sleep…quite loudly. He knew Naruto snored, but damn he was rattling the whole bed!
'Oh well, I still love the dobe, I'll just have to make sure I fall asleep before he does so I don't have to listen to him.'
FREEZE! 'Did I just imply that he would be sleeping with me more often? That would be nice, but I doubt the dobe would want to, let alone stay at my house ever after last night. I'm surprised he didn't sneak out and race home as fast as he could after I fell asleep.'
He walked down the hallway toward the kitchen still thinking those thoughts and mumbling to himself.
'I think I'll make French toast, yeah that sounds good. I hope Naruto likes this type of breakfast food. That would suck if I made him something he hates. Heh that was such a dirty word… suck.'
He hummed quietly to himself as he cooked the French toast, eggs and bacon, moving soundlessly around the kitchen as he did. 'Hn, smells pretty good if I do say so myself' he smiled at the corny phrase.
Naruto woke with a jolt, his eyes snapping opening. 'Wow what a strange dream!' he thought. He yawned as he crawled out of the large bed, then realizing that Sasuke wasn't in the bed headed out of the room.
He smelled bacon and eggs and his stomach growled angrily. 'Smells good...'
He meandered into the kitchen just as Sasuke was piling the food onto some plates.
"Morning sunshine," Sasuke said smiling at the blond. He set the plates down at the table and went to grab some silverware.
"Morning," Naruto mumbled rubbing the sleep out of his eyes and sitting down at the table.
As soon as Sasuke handed Naruto his silverware he dug in, scarfing down the hot eggs, bacon and French toast like he was a starved homeless man having his first meal in days.
"Maybe I should have made more," Sasuke murmured as he sat down and started to eat his own food.
"It's really good, thank you," Naruto said, wiping his mouth with the napkin Sasuke had set next to his plate.
"Hn, you're welcome dobe." Sasuke mumbled as he took a drink of his OJ. "So…um what did you want to do today?"
Naruto blinked and stared at Sasuke confused. 'What do you have in mind?' he thought with a little smirk.
"I uh do…." The blond began, but was stopped short when his phone rattled off with a rather annoying ringtone. "I should get that…" he trailed off.
'Damn of all the things to happen!' Naruto mentally screamed.
"Huh, Iruka sensei? Yeah, good morning…nani? A mission?"
Sasukes heart sank hearing the conversation and the direction in which it was heading.
A mission meant that Naruto would be away for who knew how long. Away from Sasuke and any chance there could be for them. Time apart would certainly leave them both enough time to think things through rationally and the brunet doubted that was a good thing.
"Yeah I'll be there soon. Yeah I'm leaving now." Sasuke heard the phone snap shut and Naruto dragging his feet back to the kitchen.
The brunet tried to put on a clueless facade.
Naruto sat back down at the table and downed his orange juice before speaking. His mouth was suddenly dry with a foul taste.
"That was Iruka sensei….I uh guess I have a mission and I was chosen specifically for it." He stopped and sighed, closing his cerulean eyes. "He didn't give me details and I'm supposed to go meet him right away. Which probably means the mission might take some time."
He opened his eyes again to look into Sasukes eyes, hoping for some kind of reaction. As if he was expecting the brunet to tell him not to go.
Sasuke blinked a few times, "Well that's great, congratulations. I guess I'll see you when you return?" He phrased the last part as a question, unsure of how the blond was feeling.
"….yeah…okay..I'll see you when I get back then." He pushed away from the table, almost a little too roughly and stood up.
"Bye Sasuke." He said turning away from the other boy and walked toward the swinging door of the kitchen.
"Hn." Was all the blond heard as he pushed through the door.
Sasuke was in too much shock and didn't move to get up. Instead he sat there as the silent tears began to fall into his lap.
Naruto did not look back as he made his way to the front door as fast as he could manage. As he jerked the door open he sobbed as frustrated tears spilled from his eyes against his will. This time he didn't bother to close the door gently. He let it slam as he forced himself to run from the mansion and put as much distance from his feelings as possible.
