19. Moneymaking

Before this chapter starts, let's make a small test: Do you still remember chapter 4? No scrolling back! Do you remember? It was named "Hot Chocolate". Let's just pretend you all remember what happened.

The point is, in that chapter Sasuke was waiting for a telephone call. And that call had a purpose: Money. Even ninjas need it. And since they had no missions and Sasuke didn't want to use the Uchiha inheritance, they needed that money.

But Sasuke wasn't sure if he needed the money so much, that he would do this. It was the living hell.

He was in a goddamn Santa Claus costume. Oh the humiliation.

Small children were running around him and pulling at his clothes, while he sat on the big throne-like chair and glared at his companions. Those traitors seemed to enjoy it!

Naruto was chasing one of the brats around the room, both laughing loudly and Sakura was playing Hide and Seek with a group of little girls. Sasuke slouched back in his chair and let his cap slide down his eyes. Welcome blackness greeted him. But the noises still reached his ear. He frowned.

Then something sat on his lap.

'No! If another one of those devils comes to annoy me, I'm going to kill them all!'

"Ah, no need to be angry, Santa, it's just me!" He heard a happy voice and someone pushed up his cap.

"Those little lambs will be scarred for life if their idol, Santa Claus, puts on such a bad face!" Naruto teased, grinning widely.

"I don't care."

"Now that's one bad attitude!"

"...I really couldn't care less."

"Awww..."

"Do you want to wear that friggin costume?" Sasuke asked and pulled his fake beard off his face.

"I'm already an elf!" Naruto motioned to his green costume and tights.

Sasuke got an idea.

"Fine! I'll be happy now-"

"Yay!" Naruto shouted and glomped Sasuke, but Sasuke pushed him away.

"Under one condition!" he insisted and Naruto's face fell slightly.

"Okay, what is it?"

Sasuke leaned forward to Naruto and whispered something into his ear. Naruto flushed red.

"You pervert!" he hissed and slapped Sasuke on the shoulder, but Sasuke just grinned.

"You know you love me," he laughed and pulled Naruto close.

"Who said so?" Naruto replied with a smile and slung his arms around Sasuke.

They closed the small distance and locked their lips in a small kiss.

"Why is Santa kissing his elf?"

Suddenly they both were back into the real world, where a bunch of kids were standing curiously around them, goggling the kiss.

They shot apart and laughed sheepishly, rubbing the back of their heads.

But the worst was to come...

"NARUTO! SASUKE!" Sakura stomped towards them, steam emitting from her nostrils and ears.

"Run!" The boys cried simultaneously and ran for their lives.

Miz: What did he ask for?

Kathy: He liked Naruto's outfit... much... ::perverted grin::

Miz: O.O ... Oh how I hate that girl... ::mumbles:

Kathy: I heard that!

Anyway, review if you still love me :3 Till then!
