Flashback….

"Haku?"

"Yeah, yeah, you win the million-dollar question, idiot. Sheesh, you really had to ruin my day, didn't you? If I had known that would happen, I would have just hit you wit my shoe—DEAD ON!!" Haku snarled through clenched teeth while rubbing his forehead with his left.

I really couldn't help but snigger at how childish or poutish his snarl looked like. Yup, it's Haku alright. Long Ebony hair that softly cascades to his hips ( He hates barber shops FYI ), soft hazel eyes that can cast a glint of mischief when opportunity arises, and that shapely figure that could make cheerleaders want to strangle the lights out of him for being so –eherm- girly.

" Hey Haku, lookin' pretty today. Want to make a perfect impression on the men?" I really couldn't help but smirk at how his eyes could go from soft to dangerous in a matter of milliseconds. He just hates being called a girl.

"If you didn't notice--faghead" He smirked. I winced at that nickname. God, I hated it. Ever since 7th grade, he thought my hair looked so gay that the only thing missing was me happily skipping down rainbows and singing along with all the happy fairies. Urgh! Remind me not to think like that ever again.

"….I'm quite the stud while you were gone those long, happy years doing God-knows-what. Besides, the chicks here dig guys that look metro." He said in a matter-of-fact tone while making a GOD-I'M-SO-HOT poise. Show-off.

"Hmmph…" was all I could muster at that moment. What happened to passed with flying colors? But then, luck was definitely on my side…..

"Hey there gorgeous. Wanna join us for lunch? Hot girls like you shouldn't…."

"What?!! Who the hell are you calling a chick? Do I look like a chick to you? You need proof? I'll show you proof!" Before things got –steamy- for bypassers, I quickly had to drag a fuming and fumbling Haku away from those dumb-struck jocks while trying to give them my most apologetic smile.

"What's your problem Naruto? Did you see the way they looked at me? Like a fuckin' piece of meat!! Let me go! I'll beat those bitchslackers to pulp!" It's so hard trying to put some sense into an enraged Haku. Call him a girl and he'll rip you apart. Quit struggling will you…..

"Haku, calm down. It was just an accident. Look, I'll treat you to lunch, just calm down. Sheesh! You sound like a drama queen…" It's so fun to watch his venomous glares he's sending my way after that comment. I just love being an asshole….

"Don't you even start with me, Blondie." With that, the glares softened- Thank God…- replaced with a smirk…This isn't good.

"You know…" Haku leaned forward, brushing his lips across my right ear, "…you're pretty hot yourself, Na—Ru—To" Did he just purr?

"Oh, I didn't know you were so into me, Haku. Gorgeous me must finally be rubbing into your….OUCH!! You didn't have to hit me that hard!"

"Hehe. Serves you right M.M ." I just hate when he looks all smug and all…..Wait, did he just call me Marilyn Monroe? Why that little shit…

"What did you just call me?" He shrugged. "Was that Marilyn Monroe you called me a while ago…" He smirked.

He then feigned shock—and innocence. "Oh no, Naruto. What ever do you think of me? Do I look the kind of guy to call you names of dead people…? I'm hurt Naruto. Why do you always break my heart….HOLY FUCK! Don't hit me that hard you little runt." I could always do a little victory dance inside my head….

"Little? Last time I checked, I was 3 inches taller than wittle-ol-Hawkuuuu" I just cooing out his name.

"Fine" Haku finally slumped…" just get me lunch. You promised" Ha! In your face Haku. Naruto1, Haku0
