*~*Chapter 18 – Final Task*~*

Authors Note ~ Alrighty peoples of the Naruto yaoi loving kind. You see since my way of updating is getting it to my friend Melissa, I wouldn't be able to update over Christmas break. Sooo I typed these two chapters in the same day as an early Christmas present for all my lovely readers. I hope you enjoy it! Bold sentences are thoughts!

SASUKE"S POV- I woke up to the birds chirping and Naruto was there, in my arms just like he belonged there and I couldn't help but think he did. I held him tighter; I'd forgotten how warm his embrace is.

"I missed you so much." I whispered into his ear.

"I missed you too." Naruto replied

I leaned in and kissed him softly but then the warmth suddenly disappeared. The warm lips left mine. I opened my eyes to see why he pulled away only to be met with a pillow. There wasn't any Naruto. I threw the pillow. I sighed in aggravation. It was only a dream. Then I remembered something. Today was my last task. I got up and showered and clothed myself. I ate something quick for breakfast and ran out the door. I was in a really good mood today because I would no longer have to be away from my Naruto when I was done. I met up with Kakashi and Iruka at our meeting spot in front of the Hokage and my joy was automatically killed when I found out my task.

"I have to do what!"

""You have to help out at the Yamanaka's flower shop. Ino's mother is sick today and she needs help. You have to do anything Ino asks you because today she's your boss."

"Anything?"

"Anything." Tsunade said with finality.

"Ok I can do that."

"Goodbye Sasuke." "Oh and by the way Iruka and Kakashi won't be coming with you."

"Ok goodbye lady Tsunade."

I walked to the flower shop. When I got there I was hugged from behind by someone who smelled like flowers which meant one person… Ino.

It was like it never registered in her head that I'm gay. Gay and seeing someone.

"Hey Sasuke." Ino said in a flirty voice.

"Hi." I said unenthusiastically.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Could you help me move those pots over there?" She asked pointing to a space across the store.

We worked for most of the day peacefully. Or so I thought.

"Sasuke?"

"Yes."

"Let me get this straight, you have to do anything I say?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Then her eyes slatted like an evil cat. She looked ready to jump her pray and that just happened to be me. I don't like that look on her face. It usually means something bad is going to happen.

"Come here Sasuke."

I did as I was told and stood in front of the blonde woman.

"Kiss me." She demanded.

"What the fuck?" I turned around and walked back to the opposite side of the store.

She looked at me expectantly.

"Hell no! I'm not single you crazy bitch!"

"But you don't have a choice." She stated evilly

"Why not?"

"Because you have to do anything I say. If you don't you fail this job."

"But I –"

"But nothing."

I don't think I ever wanted to slap a girl this bad in my life. I can't do it, I'd be betraying Naruto, my whole reason for this task.

"Come here and kiss me. You don't want to fail your final job because then everything you've done would be for nothing."

I growled at her but went to her to which she squealed with delight.

She closed her eyes and leaned forward a bit.

Man I really don't want to do this. What if she thinks I kissed her but I didn't really?

I smiled and put my out my pointer and middle fingers. I kept them together but then licked it just to get then a little moist. I smirked. Just like lips. Then I pressed them to her lips. When I did she blushed. Then I pulled them away and wiped my lips with the back of my hand like I had kissed her.

"Gross." I said sounding disgusted but on the inside I was smiling because she actually thinks I kissed her. Problem solved. What she doesn't know won't hurt her.

She was looking at me and blushing still.

"All you have to do is help me close shop then you're done.

Then I helped her clean up the flower shop then lock it up.

"Bye Sasuke."

"Hn."

Then I went to see Lady Tsunade to tell her I'm finally done. I was walking to the Hokage's tower. The sun was setting and I was in a great mood because tomorrow I would get to see my Naruto. Little did I know that Ino was calling all her friends telling them about the "kiss".

I walked into Tsunade's office to find that she had fallen asleep with paperwork all around her.

"Tsunade! Wake up!"

She jolted awake. "What the!" Then she saw me.

"You brat! Why did you wake me up! What do you need that's so important?"

"I'm done." I said a full blown smirk taking over my face.

"Ok, you're team is meeting tomorrow morning for training. You can tell Naruto the good news."

""What good news?

"I've accepted it. You worked very hard. I'm impressed. You make Naruto happy so I guess that's all that really matters."

I smiled at the thought of Naruto.

"Goodbye Tsunade."

"Goodbye Sasuke."
