A Moment is an Eternity.

Chapter 8 - Jealousy

A few days later, Naruto's fever finally broke, he could go back to school. He couldn't wait for it. He wanted to catch to his friends, to everything he had missed when he was sick. As much as he hated to admit it, but he actually missed having the fan girls swarmed him to ask him questions about Sasuke. He made it to the class early on time. A lot of his friends surrounded him, asking and concerning about his health. Naruto was really glad that so many people actually care.

The blond boy didn't notice that two dark eyes were watching his every move. Sasuke didn't like it one bit at all when the blond got all these people around him, he kept his cool and tried to show his discomfort.

'Grrr, they better not be touching him or else.'

The crowd finally dispersed, leaving Naruto talking to Neji one on one. Sasuke finally snapped when he saw how close Neji was to Naruto, he walked angrily over to the two boys chatting happily. Naruto's laugh didn't seem to calm the foul mood from Sasuke. The raven-haired teen stood behind Naruto, Neji saw Sasuke then he knew something isn't good coming up, two pale arms wrapped around the unsuspected blond. Naruto felt a pair of lips were licking and sucking on his neck. He knew it was Sasuke, but he didn't understand what is Sasuke doing. The Uchiha shot Neji a dirty look then smirked, he went back to molesting the blond in front of everyone.

"Sasuke.." Naruto finally spoke. "What the hell are you doing?"

"What do you think I am doing?"

"Hintana just called me, I'm going to go Naruto." Neji backed away from the couple, uncomfortably.

"You're acting like an indecent person bastard, now get away from me." Said the irritating blond.

"So, it's true." Sasuke released the blond, he whispered coldly.

"What are you talking about?"

"You like Neji don't you?" Naruto couldn't believe his ears. His blue eyes showed a hint of hurt.

"Don't be a moron, he is my friend, nothing more." The smaller boy gritted his teeth.

"Oh yeah? Why didn't you move away when he was flirting with you?"

"Don't be stupid Sasuke. We were just talking."

Naruto sighed, then looked deep into the stupid dark eyes.

"Do you trust me Sasuke?"

Silence.

"I do…but I don't trust him." Sasuke pointed at the innocent Neji who was now talking to his cousin Hintana.

Naruto sighed again. "You possessive bastard." He shook his head then took his stuffs away from his desk and moved it in between Sakura and Ino. Sasuke just stood there watched his boyfriend sat far away from him. He cursed himself for being such an asshole to his angel.


Naruto and Sasuke didn't speak to each other for the rest of the day. Naruto was mad while Sasuke sulked and reflected back on his words and action toward the blond. They both were struggling to catch some sleep, but sleep won't come to them. Naruto sat up and looked at his alarm clock. 1:23 a.m. He reached out for his cell phone, after a moment of thinking, he flipped it open, dialed a number that he got used to. Before it could ring, he closed it quickly.

'Damn it, damn Sasuke.'

Tossed the phone down to table next to his bed. He closed his eyes, trying to get some sleep again.


Sasuke knew he had hurt Naruto, he must make up to his boyfriend somehow. After a period of turning and tossing, the next thing he knew he was in his car, driving around in the dark streets. Only a few cars here and there. He turned on the radio, the ambient music were playing in his car, like a sweet muse, the music gave him an idea to make up to his blond. Flipped his cell, he dialed a number that he never thought he would call.

The phone vibrated loudly against the wooden table, it woke the tired Naruto up. Lifted the cell up to ear.

"Hello?" He said sleepily.

"Naruto?" A female voice was talking in the other line.

"Yeah? Who is this?"

"It's Sakura, I know it's late, but that boyfriend of yours asked me a favor. I couldn't refused, I am sorry Naruto."

"No don't worry about it, what did he want you to do?"

"He told me to tell you turn on your favorite radio station. It wasn't very clear I'm sorry. Good night Naruto."

"Nightie Sakura." They both hung up. Naruto reached over to his alarm clock, and tuned it to his favorite station as he sighed and wondered what that ass is up to now.

A song was just finished playing, then a female voice spoke clearly on the air.

"Welcome to the T's Goddess Lounge, who have I tempted in this late night?"

"Hn. Hi," 'Sasuke?' "I would like to request a song for someone please." Naruto could hear the male voice wasn't at ease at all. He could tell how uncomfortable Sasuke would be right now. He couldn't help but snickered.

"Maybe I ask who is someone of yours?"

A clear throat sound could be heard. "My boyfriend, Naruto, we had a fight today. If you could please play a song to let him know that I'm sorry."

"Sure thing honey, good luck on making up with your boyfriend."

"Hn."

A soft soothing song played on the alarm clock. Naruto smiled, he thought he was the idiot one in the relationship, but sometime, the one that was in control can do stupid thing. He was glad though, glad that Sasuke was human after all, not some symbol of perfection. He grabbed his cell and called Sasuke.

"Dead-last." Sasuke was happy that his boyfriend called, he kept himself from leaping with joy.

"Bastard!"

Silence.

"Sasuke…?"

"Hn?"

"Meet me in front of my house."

"Okay."

Stood in his pajama, Naruto waited for Sasuke for around five minutes. The car slowly stopped in front of him. He hopped in quickly. He gave Sasuke a soft peck on the cheek. It was dark out, so Naruto didn't see a small tint of pink of the porcelain skin.

"Just drive, follow my direction." Naruto spoke softly. Sasuke nodded.

Soon the car stopped on a small hill above the city. Naruto stood silently, he watched city and the sky. It was a lovely view, the city was sleeping peaceful without any disturbance. Many dots of light acted like shiny jewels that had been sewed onto the black cloak. They seemed to be imitated the shining stars that appeared on the clear sky. Sasuke turned off the car engine, then he stood next to Naruto. The blond boy pulled the taller one in a warm embrace. They both enjoyed the comforting silence, the only sounds made were breathing and heartbeats.

"I am still mad at you…" A soft voice broke through the silence gently.

"I know, I'm sorry I'd hurt you." Sasuke hugged Naruto tighter. The blond chuckle at the gesture.

"He he, you're a selfish possessive bastard."

"But I'm all yours."

"I only belong to you, Sasuke." Naruto tip toed up and placed a soft kiss into those perfect lips. Sasuke gladly accepted before he let out a small whisper. The whisper couldn't be heard because they both were lost in the kiss, but it was there.

'I love you, my angel.'


A/N: For this chapter, there was an original version. I made Naruto slapped Sasuke really hard that blood came out of his mouth, Sasuke retaliated back by broken Naruto's wrist. Yeah..it was a bit too strong on drama, too much emotionally and physically hurt there, so I decided to do something mild.
