Secret Friends
Chapter 2: Sleepovers and Surprises...
Disclaimer... Unfortunately i own nothing... My life is sad.
Naruto spent all day preparing for his sleepover. Iruka said even though he would be out Naruto could have Hinata, Sakura, and Ino over for a sleepover. He put out snacks and drinks. He cleaned the entire house to get to ready. He clicked on his computer. He found another message waiting for him.
Hey Naruto,
It's me Crimson Prince. I was just wondering if you could talk for a bit. I am bored and all. So maybe I'll speak with you later.
Crimson Prince.
Naruto felt his heart skip a beat in excitement. He clicked on his AIM icon to sign on. Then an IM popped up.
ShyButterfly72: Hey Naruto like my new name. It was Kiba's idea.
Naruto: Hey Hinata what's up?
ShyButterfly72: I'm going to invite you to a chat with me, Sakura, Ino, Neji, and Kiba.
Naruto: Okay
Naruto received his chat invite and clicked accept.
Naruto: Hey guys. What's up?
ShyButterfly72: Hey Naruto. Not much. Can't wait for your sleepover.
Dogluver72: Hey Naruto. So Hinata is going to sleepover your house?!
Naruto: Yeah. Do you want to come for a little bit?
Dogluver72: Sure.
Ino'sSakura blossom22: I can't wait either! It should be fun. We'll watch movies and eat until we throw up.
Sakura'sBabyGirl: Me either except I won't throw up.
Destiny'sSlave24: Yeah so...
Naruto: Hey Neji. Still obsessed with destiny.
Destiny'sSlave24: yeah it's just a habit...0.0
Dogluver72: so anyway I am really bored. Hey Naruto can I come over now?...
Naruto: sure Kiba. Maybe you can help me think up a new screen name.
Dogluver72: Okay be right there.
Dogluver72 has signed out...
ShyButterfly72:... He didn't even say bye. Meanie!
Ino'sSakuraBlossom22: Oh well... SO I hear that Sasuke Uchiha is going out with someone. Or interested in Someone.
Naruto: Kiba's here I got to go bye...
Sakura'sBabyGirl: Bye
Shybutterfly72: Bye
Ino'sSakuraBlossom22: Bye Naru-chan
Destiny'sSlave24: Bye
Naruto has signed out...
ShyButterfly72: Sakura you know kiba wasn't there yet. He probably got upset and all. You shouldn't have told him.
Ino'sSakuraBlossom22: Sorry I didn't think... Oh Now i feel bad.
ShyButterfly72: Let's go see if he's okay
Sakura'sBabyGirl: Sounds like a plan.
Ino'sSakuraBlossom22 has signed off.
Sakura'sBabyGirl Has signed off..
ShyButterfly72: Come on Neji...
Destiny'sSlave24: ...
ShyButterfly72 Has signed off.
Destiny'sSlave24 has signed off...
Naruto sat in front of his computer. His heart sank slowly. He clicked on the screen name of the only person still signed on.
Naruto: Crimson Prince... are you there?
CrimsonPrince: Hey what's up.
Naruto: I feel slightly depressed.
CrimsonPrince: Why?
Naruto: Well there's this person I like and He might be going out with someone.
CrimsonPrince: Awww but there are other guys out there who would like you... I'm pretty sure that this boy isn't' the only one who you could ever like.
Naruto: That's true but I really like him. Lately he won't even look at me except for stupid little side glances. I miss him because I want to be his friend!
CrimsonPrince: I feel bad for you. Maybe he likes you and doesn't know how to show it...
Naruto:How would you know?
CrimsonPrince: Because I've been jaded by people I liked before. It hurts but if you learn to move on it will work out. We never truly get what we want in life. You need to know that!
Naruto: well that's depressing!
CrimsonPrince: Remember when you feel alone I'll be here for you.
Naruto: I don't even know you yet i find that comforting...
CrimsonPrince: That's usually how it works. Confusing eh?!
Naruto: My friend is here... But I'll talk to you later.
CrimsonPrince: That sounds good. Hear from you in a while bye!
Naruto: Bye
Naruto ran to answer the door after saving the AIM conversation. Kiba grinned and walked in.
" Hey Naruto," He smiled.
" Hey Kiba what's up?" Naruto replied.
" Nothing just came bye to hang out. Want to play a video game. I brought a new one," Kiba offered.
" Sure," Naruto Started hooking up his game system.
Then there was a knock on his door. Naruto gave Kiba a quizzical look then went to answer the door.
" Hey Naru-chan," Sakura smiled.
" Hey guys. You're really early.
" Yeah we came to see if you were okay," Sakura said.
" Sure I'm fine," Naruto nodded.
With that he and Kiba began to play a game while the others watched.
Sasuke...
Sasuke read what he and Naruto had discussed. So Naruto liked someone. Well that sucked because Sasuke was still hung up on him. Well at least he could still talk to him. He stared at the screen as his heart sank into his stomach. Why did this always happen to him. He knew Naruto was gay and he had a crush on him too. Sometimes he was upset seeing as he wanted to restore his clan but when he looked at his Naruto he didn't care anymore. So why was it so hard to get his attention?
" Grrrr," Sasuke growled in frustration.
He got up and put on his shoes. Maybe a walk would clear his head.
Naruto...
The sleepover was well underway. The snacks had been gone through already. Naruto decided to go pick some up. He said he wanted to go alone. Maybe that would clear his head. As Naruto walked into the store he giggled. Temari was working the counter. She and Naruto also had so much fun just messing with each other. He decided to get his food first, then go bug her. As he turned around he walked into something solid.
" oh I'm sor...," He began.
" It's okay," Sasuke looked down at him.
Naruto felt a blush creep up his neck and onto his face. Oh no this can't happen now.
" Well I've got to go," He said and turned to go down the aisle.
Sasuke stood still ad looked after him but he continued walking with his head down. When Temari saw him walk to the counter she smirked.
" Hey homo," She said cheerfully.
" Not now, I'll explain later," Naruto walked away from a very disgruntled Temari.
Sasuke...
Sasuke felt something hit him. He looked down to see Naruto. Naruto stuttered out a half apology before he turned and left. Oh man he was right there why didn't he do something. Sasuke turned and left the store. So much for the walk clearing his head.
Naruto...
Naruto ran back to his apartment. What's wrong with him, he just walked away he was right there. Thoughts of the Uchiha filled his head and he blushed again. He opened the door and set down the stuff. Sakura was sitting on Ino's lap and they were cuddled up. Hinata and Kiba were sitting on the couch kissing. Oh the world is against poor Naruto-Kun.
He set up the chips and went to his room. He clicked on CrimsonPrince's screen name.
Naruto: Are you there? I think the world is so against me right now!
CrimsonPrince: I am away right now... Be back in five!
Naruto: oh man. Okay talk to you later.
CrimsonPrince: WAIT I'm here.
Naruto: Oh thank Goodness...
CrimsonPrince: Why do you think the world is against you?
Naruto: It's a fairly long story.
CrimsonPrince: I've got time...
Naruto: Well I just ran to the store right.. And I bumped into this guy. He is really Emo like. Well I was halfway through my apology when I just froze and blushed. I don't really understand why though. Then After feeling like I've been kicked in the stomach I come home to my friends being all couple like. I hate life sometimes.
CrimsonPrince: Let's not be to hasty here. I know you feel lonely, which is normal but It's okay because there is someone special for you out there too. You just have to wait for them to find you!
Naruto: Thanks that's really wise. Are you like an old guy stalking me.
CrimsonPrince:No but if I was that would be creepy...! Any way I've got to go but I'll be back later for now just have fun. Oh and I bet the guy in the store was probably a little shaken up too. Don't worry.
Naruto: Okay bye.
CrimsonPrince: Bye )
Naruto looked at his computer and smiled. He really felt connected to this mysterious CrimsonPrince person. He began to wonder who it was. Maybe they were down on their luck and love too. Hmmm, Anyway Naruto decided to get back to the party. He felt a lot better now.
Sasuke...
Sasuke felt a smile cross his face. What a rare thing for the dark and moody Uchiha to smile. Yet when he talked to Naruto he felt his heart lift.
" Bye Naruto. Love you," He whispered before going to lay on his bed and think. More like plot how to make the blond boy his.
