Secret Friends
Disclaimer... I own none of this except the idea for the story.
Chapter1: School
It was Friday at last. Naruto jumped from his bed. One more boring day at school and he was
free for the weekend. He dressed for school and got ready to meet his best friend Hinata. He scarfed
down breakfast, knowing Iruka left it for him before leaving for work. He saw a note.
Naruto,
I will be leaving early so I couldn't cook you breakfast. I will see you in school. Please make sure your
homework is in your folder today.
Love,
Iruka- sensei.
Hinata was waiting outside for him.
" Hey Naruto," She said in her oh so quiet voice.
" Hey Hinata. What's up?" He asked her.
" Mom Says I can sleep over tomorrow. Is Sakura still coming too?" Hinata announced.
" Yep she is," Naruto nodded.
They talked all the way to school, about random things like homework and Hinata's new crush,
Kiba. When they got to school and went to their lockers they saw the brooding Uchiha. He silently stalked past as he always did. His eyes glanced at Naruto for a second. Then Kiba walked up to them. He slipped his arms around Hinatas shoulders and grinned.
"Hey guys," He smiled.
" Hey Kiba," Hinata stuttered through her blush.
" Hey Kiba," Naruto grinned at Hinata.
" Hey Naruto I was wondering if I could steal Hinata for a few minutes," Kiba grinned.
"Sure," Naruto smiled and watched as Kiba dragged her away.
He went to class to find Iruka. The man was in front of the class talking to Kakashi, his boyfriend and collegue.
" Hey guys," Naruto took his seat in the front.
" Hey kid," Kakashi ruffled his hair playfully and smiled.
" Naruto, I will be late tonight but I threw dinner together and will be home in time to put it in the oven," Iruka smiled.
Naruto nodded, his attention was brought to Sasuke who was stalking past him. He just walked right past barely brushing his shoulder against Naruto's. Naruto blushed. Why won't Sasuke look at me he thought to himself. Hinata took her seat next to him before the bell rang. She was beat red and Naruto grinned.
"He asked me out!" She whispered.
" Awesome," Naruto grinned.
The bell rang and they fell silent. Six hours and then freedom. Naruto and Hinata snuck out Hinata's ipod. They put one earbud in and turned up " Best Friend" By "Aqua". They were even making faces and having fun. The lunch bell rang three hours later and they got their stuff. They went to the lunch table that they always sat at. Kiba came up behind Hinata and hugged her. He sat next to naruto where he always sat.
They talked all through lunch hour. Iruka and Kakashi ate at the staff table but they kept an eye on their adopted son, Naruto. They saw the Uchiha kid watching Naruto too. He didn't eat just sat there with his hands folded.
Sakura sat next to Hinata and smiled. Her and Hinata were kind of in a fight. Not a big one but a silly one.
" Hinata, I just wanted to say... I am sorry. I was wrong," Sakura smiled.
" It's okay Sakura. I am sorry for being really childish," Hinata apologized also.
They hugged and it was over. There would be no problems at Naruto' sleepover. Sakura got up and went to find her girlfriend, Ino. Hinata and Kiba were now sitting together talking. Gaara and Lee were making out as always. Tenten and Shikamaru were fighting over something just so they could make up later. Naruto realized how lonely he felt. He wished he could have someone to love. After seventeen years he'd never even been kissed. He knew part of the reason was because he was gay but why else?
Back in class naruto felt someone watching him again. Everyday it was the same but no one was ever looking. That or they were rather good at hiding it. The final bell rang for the days end. Naruto said bye to Iruka and Kakashi. He figured out why Iruka would be home late. Just the look in their eyes was enough to know.
Hinata and Naruto walked home. They playfully sung all the way. Butchering some of the best music ever made on purpose. Hinata dropped Naruto off at his door and gave him a goodbye hug.
"I'll be on AIM later. So tyr to go on okay!" she yelled over her shoulder.
" Okay," Naruto climbed the stairs to his apartment.
After watching some television Naruto clicked his computer on. He signed into AIM and clicked on Hinata's screenname.
Naruto: Hey Hinata
Hinata: Finally I've been waiting for like an hour.
Naruto: Sorry I was engaged in other things.
Hinata: Watching TV
Naruto: Yeah. So what's up
Hinata: My mom is driving me insane. She is making Neji stay over this weekend and I have to clean for him to stay.
Naruto: Want me to come help. I can call Iruka and ask.
Hinata: No brb okay?
Naruto: Kay
Naruto was sitting and waiting for Hinata When a strange IM popped up.
CrimsonPrince: Hello. Is this Naruto Uzumaki.
Naruto: Yeah who is this.
CrimsonPrince: CrimsonPrince
Naruto: 0.0 Yeah but your name.
CrimsonPrince: That's not important. So may I ask you how are you doing?
Naruto: Fine.
CrimsonPrince: Good. So you might know me. I go to your school.
Naruto: Is this Kiba messing with me again.
CrimsonPrince: No.
Naruto: Look man, I'm not supposed to talk to strangers.
CrimsonPrince: Dobe we've already established that we go to the same school
Naruto: So that doesn't mean I know you.
CrimsonPrince: Trust me you do.
Naruto: Who are you. Dobe! That nickname sounds so familiar.
CrimsonPrince: I'll see you tomorrow.
Naruto: Whatever.
Hinata: Back
Naruto some weird guy just messaged me. He said he knew me from school.
Hinata: I'm coming over until Iruka gets there just incase.
Naruto: Are you sure that's okay?
Hinata: Okay! of course I am worried about you.
Naruto: I'll see you in a few
Hinata: Okay I'll be right there.
Naruto saved the conversation with CrimsonPrince for Hinata to see. He re read it and strangely enough he was intrigued and wanted to know who this was. He thought maybe he should talk to this person more and see if he could figure it out. Maybe he just had to get more hints.
"Naruto," Hinata poked her head in.
" Hey Hinata," Naruto spoke from the kitchen.
" Naruto let me read it," She smiled.
Hinata's pale eyes skimmed the message picking it apart. She had no idea who it was.
" Naruto, I have no idea," Hinata shook her head.
" okay let's just hang out and watch TV," Naruto smiled.
Hinata nodded her head and they sat to watch TV. Iruka came home and cooked dinner. Hinata went home and they ate. After that Naruto was getting ready for bed. He walked into his room and scratched his stomache. He clicked on his mail to read it. He had a message from the CrimsonPrince that read: Sorry for freaking you out before. I was just wondering if you wanted to be my AIM buddy. So anyways i'll see you tomorrow. Bye.
Sasuke Uchiha waited anxiously by his computer. He finally received a message from naruto Uzumaki. It read: yeah I guess you could be my AIM buddy just no more trying to psych me out anymore. Okay. Bye. Naruto )
Yes finally a way to get closer to Naruto. Instead of just watching him from afar now he could talk to him. This might be good after all. Although he could've been a little smoother during the conversation. Oh well it was fine now.
