Authors Note: Heyo! Thank you for reading the second installment of this experimental story. :) It feels weird to be writing again and especially to be writing something that people can...see lol Everything I've ever written has never seen the light of day, and is typically super emo. Anyways, read on! Please comment some feedback! 3
This one is short, sorry I've been super busy 3
Disclaimer: Obvi- I don't own Naruto and if I did I wouldn't live in such a shitty apartment.
Chapter 2:
BAM! BAM! BAM! Naruto startled awake his heart in his throat BAM! Naruto rolled off his bed and hit the floor covering his head, chances are the gunshots were on the ground and not on the second floor, but the instincts took hold before logic did. After about ten seconds and no more gun shots, the blonde man got up, heart still beating out of his chest "Fucking shit" he mumbled walking over to his bedroom window that faced outwards towards the street, where he saw two things; a car full of bullet holes, and a white lady across the street looking out her window who was most likely calling the cops. Naruto rolled his eyes, drive by shootings weren't exactly common and you don't really get used to them. However this neighborhood and all it's quirks was why his rent was so cheap. Grumbling some more quiet profanities Naruto looked at the old alarm clock on his nightstand, 11:00am. He shrugged and grabbed his bong off the bottom shelf, and the lighter next to it.
Everybody in the apartment complex that the Uzamaki boy resided parked in the back parking lot, since there was only street parking out front. This meant Naruto could take up the sidewalk working on his dirt bike. It was a beat up old thing, it had about ten years on him being a hand me down from Kiba's older cousin. But he loved the damn thing to pieces, quite literally. He didn't use it for competitive purposes but more for off roading. His favorite thing to do on sunny and warm weekends was to make the hour drive up to Ashford with his friends, and go out in the woods and take their Bikes over the uneven terrain and get drunk off cheap beers. Other than that quirk Naruto was more of a city boy.
Naruto wiped the sweat off his forehead leaving a greasy black stripe on it, setting his wrench down and sat down on the concrete looking over his shoulder at Sasuke's apartment building. To his surprise he found the man to already be outside sitting on the front porch steps. Sasuke was holding a book in his lap but clearly wasn't reading it as he was already looking at Naruto when he looked in his direction. Grinning Naruto got up and brushed his greasy hands on his basketball shorts. "Hey neighbor" He said in his raspy voice, walking in Sasuke's direction before resting his arms on the chain link fence across from the man. Sasuke smirked at him "Hey" he said coolly, dog earring the page in his book and closing it, setting it next to him. "I don't think I've ever seen you outside of your place, besides when you're coming and going" Naruto said. Sasuke shrugged and leaned back on his hands, exposing the black v-neck band shirt and black joggers he was wearing. "I like watching you work on your bike" he said in a voice so slow and velvety that Naruto almost couldn't hear him. Sasuke seemed to be a lot of opposites when compared to the blonde. From what he'd seen from his small view of the man's apartment he was much cleaner and organized. However Naruto may have pegged the man all wrong, he had assumed he was as boring in the music department as he was in the television one. But the rock band shirt proved his own theory wrong. Naruto was feeling the urge to learn more about the neighbor he had been dreaming about for so long. It was a feeling akin to meeting someone famous. You feel like you know them but you don't really, you only think you know what you've seen. However he wanted to know everything, where he worked, where you grew up, if his parents were nice or mean, how he ended up on this side of town. He wanted to know it all and the urge was not going to be satiated by small talk across the lawn. Swallowing his nervousness and fear of rejection he said something that he'd been picturing himself saying for months. "Can I take you out to get some lunch?" Sasuke seemed like he was trying to hold back a grin, masking it with that cool exterior he showed so blatantly. "Sure".
After Naruto had out away all his tools he rushed up into his apartment to get ready for what seemed to be a surprising turn of events. This thing that he had been thinking about since Sasuke moved in was finally happening, he finally got a date. He told Sasuke he definitely needed to freshen up before they left and Sasuke agreed with him. Taking a hasty shower and throwing on a pair of jeans that didn't have holes, and an orange tee shirt he shut off all the lights as he made his way through his apartment to the front door, he rummaged through the hallway closet for a few minutes before finally finding his spare helmet, if he was gonna finally take him on a date he wholeheartedly planned on showing off.
Sasuke looked beyond skeptical looking at the bike Naruto had pulled out of the basement, of which the landlord had so graciously let him use. It wasn't a dirt bike like the other one, same sort of style but with all the things needed to make it street legal, and enough room on the seat for another person. Naruto took the bus instead of the bike more often because of the rain, but today was hot and sunny. Perfect day for a show off date. "Look, I promise you I've been riding since I was 7 years old, you're gonna live" Naruto said chuckling at the raven haired man's skeptical face. Seeming more begrudging than happy Sasuke took the plain black helmet that had been extended to him. It was a helmet that covered his face, the visor on it had a colorful film over it. Sasuke slid it over his face and Naruto watched as he fumbled with the chin straps at the bottom, chuckling again Naruto came closer to him, "Let me" he said softly. Naruto's hands brushed against his neck as he clipped and tightened the straps for him, he smirked when he felt Sasuke's neck grow warmer and what he thought was a chill run through his body. Once he was done he put on his own helmet quickly and got on the bike, cutting it on and patting the seat behind him for his date to hop on. Sasuke did so, putting his hands on Naruto's shoulders. Grinning through his helmet Naruto gunned it, revving it loudly before he took off down the street, swerving around to avoid the potholes. This made Sasuke wrap his arms all the way around Naruto's slim waist, another win for the blonde.
