Yay! updates! everyone loves updates! :p anyways. I'm finally getting to a good part! . hope you enjoy!

There is a lot of point of view changes in this one... sorry!

Naruto's POV

To Naruto the festival was amazing. Seeing the smiling faces made him happy. Also in the last five years of his life he made loads of friends that he kept running into.

At the moment he was conversing with Kiba. Word seems to go around fast in Konoha because he was asking Naruto about Sasuke. "So Sasuke's back in Konoha eh? What are you going to do about that Naruto?"

Akamaru stood tall next to Kiba, wagging his fluffy tail. Kiba still wore that same jacket that made him look like an Eskimo when he wore the hood up even after all these years, but today he wore a fancy, brown yokata for the festival.

"Why would I do anything about Sasuke?" Naruto asked confused.

"Well you know. You have been searching for him all these years now, and he suddenly just shows up back in Konoha. What does the Emo jerk have planned ya?"

It was true that Naruto had went after Sasuke ever since he left, and honestly it excited Naruto that his best friend was finally back, but what if Kiba was right. Maybe Sasuke was just there to do something to hurt him again?

The Kyuubi grumbled a small protest to Kiba's words but Naruto was lost in his own thoughts again. 'If Sasuke is here to kill me I will be read for him.' Naruto decided to himself.

Sasuke's POV

Sakura had hunted Sasuke down and was now hanging on him lovingly. "Oh Sasuke I missed you so much! You have gotten so much stronger now! Is it true you killed Itachi? What are you going to do now?"

Sasuke didn't speak a word but looked very annoyed towards Kakashi, whom just sat there in amusement at Sasuke's torture. After an hour of Sasuke denying taking Sakura on a date at the festival she got bored and went to find Ino.

Chuckling, "she's as spunky as ever for you Sasuke."

Sasuke gave a glare than replied with no emotion, "She can try all she wants, I'm not interested."

Kakashi smiled, "I know you're not interested in her. You have someone blonde in mind." Sasuke pretended not to hear Kakashi.

Iruka then came up and hugged Kakashi. Kakashi hugged back and gave Iruka a small peck on the cheek, making Iruka blush brightly. "Not here Kakashi!" he whispered harshly.

Kakashi smiled under his mask. "Oh come on. The only person in this village who doesn't know we are together is Sasuke here, and he was bound to find out sooner or later!"

All Sasuke could do was sit there in surprise. He didn't expect what just happened. Was he going insane or did his two sensei's hug, kiss, and say they were going out!?

Iruka blushed more, "how are you anyways Sasuke?" Iruka was trying hard to change the subject.

"hnn." Was all Sasuke said. Not that it is any different than usual but this time it was really all Sasuke could say without showing emotion towards what just happened.

Iruka smiled, "It is good to see you all the same."

Iruka then turned to Kakashi and started talking of some business about the new young ninja in his classes. Sasuke blocked them out as he began searching the crowd for Naruto. Over by one of the gaming stands Sasuke's eyes caught an orange kimono with blue swirls and knew instantly it was Naruto. He looked back at his sensei's, both were equally distracted with the conversation and weren't paying any attention to Sasuke, so he took his opportunity and started slowly towards Naruto.

Naruto was attempting to get a hoop over a small, green frog figure, but had already missed two out of the tree times.

"Alright! I will get it this time!" Naruto cheered for himself.Sasuke had decided he would watch from afar and approach Naruto at the perfect time. Naruto tossed his last ring. It flew through the air and caught around the frog's fat head.

"Yatta! I did it! Woo!" Naruto cheered. The man took the frog off and handed it to Naruto, congratulating him as he did. Naruto kindly thanked the man and went off to get some sweet dumplings.

While Naruto stood in line for the dumplings Sasuke took the chance to get some rice balls for himself since it was only two stands away and he could still keep Naruto in sight. Once Naruto had his food he went over to a bench and started eating happily. Sasuke went to a small grass patch about thirty feet to the left of Naruto and ate his food too.

As they both ate, and Sasuke watched Naruto, Hinata timidly approached Naruto. From what Sasuke could tell she was bright red and looked like she was about to pass out, she handed Naruto a blue and orange mask. Sasuke knew quite well that Hinata liked Naruto for some time and would do her best just to build up the courage to talk to him, so as far as he was concerned, she shouldn't be near Naruto. All Sasuke could do right now though was watch in anticipation as they conversed. He angrily bit on his rice balls, glaring all them while in their direction.

Neji's voice was suddenly heard over the crowd calling for Hinata. Quickly she nervously told Naruto good bye and left. Sasuke silently thanked Neji for calling her before she managed to work up the courage to ask Naruto to possibly hang out, or worse Sasuke lost control and attacked her.

Naruto's POV

Naruto was alone again, and since it was starting to get dark he decided to go to the forest and hunt out a good tree to watch the festival fireworks. The fireworks were always Naruto's favorite part of the festival.

'It sure was nice of Hinata to give me this mask.' Naruto inspected it closely. It was similar to an Anbu mask. This one was a fox with an orange pattern on it and a blue base. It matched naruto's yokata very well and he smiled as he put it on his back.

Naruto looked up and saw the sky was now turning orange from the sunset, 'oh right, the fireworks!'

Naruto continued the search a bit longer, he finally settled for a particularly tall tree that had a nice flat top to rest on. Naruto smiled, "perfect!" He jumped up to the top, careful not to fall. He then watched the rest of the sunset and waited for the fireworks. As he layed in the tree he put his hands behind his head like a pillow, and started thinking of Sasuke.

'I wonder if he is enjoying the festival too. Better yet, I wonder what he's doing back in Konoha. If only I could just ask.'

Sasuke's POV

Speaking of Sasuke, he was off just out of sight, watching Naruto's every move.

'He must be getting ready for the ceremonial fireworks.'

Just as Sasuke finished this thought, as if on cue, a huge BOOM went off and a burst of red exploded in the sky.

"Whoa!" Came a cry in from Naruto up in the tree. Soon others followed the first explosion, green, bright orange, electric blue, light purple and more. Sasuke could hear Naruto's 'ooh' and 'ah' and just had to smirk. 'Glad the Usuratonkachi is enjoying this.'

After about half an hour passed and Sasuke decided to confront the blonde. He hopped from tree branch to tree branch, trying not to startle Naruto. Of course Naruto was too impressed with the fireworks exploding to notice Sasuke. Another 'ooh.'

"hnn. Enjoying yourself Dobe?" Naruto jumped from the sudden sound of Sasuke's voice.

"Sasuke! What are you doing here?" Naruto's voice shook a little.

Coolly Sasuke questioned Naruto, "Am I not allowed to watch the fireworks too?"

"Of course you're allowed to watch!" Naruto stated defensively. "Anyways, where is Kakashi-sensei?"

Sasuke hid a frown; he wanted to avoid the topic of his chaperone."He had something to do."

"Oh." Was all the dumb blonde knew what to say. Naruto had hoped Kakashi would be the safe guard of Naruto having to be alone with Sasuke, but as usual that plan failed and Naruto was alone with the one person in the village he'd rather not be with.

The Kyuubi stirred in Naruto's stomach with excitement, he knew Sasuke had some hidden intention for being here with Naruto and the tension only made him more restless. Either he was going to get a good show or he was going to get to fight the Uchiha. It didn't matter to Kyuubi as long as he got some kind of action.

'Stop it!' Naruto pleaded for the Kyuubi to sit still. It wasn't enough every hair on his body was standing on end. Oh no, now the Kyuubi kept pacing in his stomach too.

Sasuke decided to sit down next to Naruto and watch the fireworks in silence. His heart was secretly pounding against his chest. Being so close to Naruto made him nervous beyond belief. Sasuke couldn't help that though. It wasn't always this way.Before he had left, Naruto was just the dumb blonde in his team that Sasuke wanted to be friends with. He didn't realize, No, he didn't accept that his feelings for Naruto was deeper until he spent those lonely nights at Orochimaru's thinking of the Dobe.
