Chapter Two - Look, don't touch.

Sasuke was asleep. Keyword being; was. He opened his eyes to glare at his cell phone lying next to him on the night stand. The screen was flashing and an annoying ring would sound every two seconds. The boy glanced past the irritating piece of technology to look at the time.

4:27 AM

Growling, Sasuke snatched the phone off the stand and flipped it open. "What could you possibly want at a time like this?" he hissed into the phone, resisting the urge to scream.

"Just checking up on you, kiddo. You know, say good morning!" Asuma chuckled from the other line.

Now, instead of resisting the urge to scream, Sasuke wanted to hurl the phone right out the window.

"So, you all settled in yet?" the man asked.

The raven sighed. There was no escape now. "Yeah. I unpacked a bit yesterday morning after the meeting, then fell asleep for a bit and finished unpacking later."

"Good to hear. So how's the school?"

"Fine. Looks a bit high-class though. How did you afford this?" Sasuke asked.

He heard a sly chuckle from the other end. "I have my ways."

The teen was silent, as was Asuma, for a few minutes. "So, is that all you wanted to say?" the raven gritted out.

"Hm...yeah, pretty much!"

Sasuke groaned in frustration, then pulled the phone away from his ear to hang up.

"Wait Sasuke!" he heard Asuma say from the phone.

Sasuke put it back up to his ear.

"Be careful today. It's not the same thing, going to school as a boy and a girl. Be on your guard."

Sasuke paused. 'Strange...' Asuma is hardly ever this serious, was he really worried? "Yeah, see you." he mumbled, then hung up the phone.

He looked outside and saw that it was still dark, but his alarm would go off in thirty minutes anyway, so it was no use going back to bed. Stretching out his arms, Sasuke made his way to the bathroom, grabbing his clothes to get ready for the day. He showered quickly, and while he was drying his hair, he wondered how one would wash a wig. Did they even need washing? After time, dust would eventually gather in it and make it smell funny, so it would need some form of cleaning.

'Maybe you can wash it like you do with regular hair...' Sasuke thought to himself while he sat on his bed, brushing out small knots in the tresses of the fake hair with his fingers.

A sudden noise broke the silence of the morning, causing the dark-haired teen to look up. He waited for a bit, then heard the noise again. He stood to look outside the door, but just as he was about to open it, he remembered his little "condition." Cursing, he threw on some baggy clothes, strapped on the bra, despite how much he hated the idea of wearing one, and quickly opened his door.

He peered down the hall to his left. All the doors were closed with no sign of them opening anytime soon. There was a dull thud, like someone fell over or something, and Sasuke turned his head to the right. He quirked an eyebrow to the sight of a brown-haired boy stumbling along the wall. He looked almost drunk, judging by the way he was walking, so Sasuke carefully sneaked out of his dorm and followed the boy. He kept a safe distance between himself and the other boy while he followed the latter down the hall. After a few minutes, Sasuke decided that enough was enough and he was going to head back, until the boy stopped at a door. He froze.

The boy knocked and it opened a moment later, revealing another face of a boy, this time with a bit lighter colored hair. "Hey, do you have any idea what time it is? What the hell were you doing out so late? You know, we could get into major trouble for that..."

"I know, I know. Chill, okay? I was just fooling around in the girls' dorms." the brunet answered.

The sandy-haired teen sighed. "You can be such a dick sometimes...huh?"

Sasuke's breath caught.

"Huh? What is it?" the brunet looked around until his eyes fell on Sasuke. That's when a foreboding feeling began to settle in Sasuke's stomach, and the brunet put on a sly smile. "Ohh..." He took a step in Sasuke's direction. "What's a girl doing in the boys' dorm hall at a time like this?"

'Boys' dorm?' Sasuke recalled passing a staircase that lead downstairs into the lobby, and remembered that that staircase was the divider to the two dorms, the girls' and the boys'. 'That's right...I'm a girl now, aren't I?'

Suddenly, the brunet boy was approaching Sasuke very quickly.

"Makoto, what the hell are you doing? You could get in trouble if someone catches you fooling around with a girl at this time." the sandy haired boy urged, following behind his friend.

'Fooling around..?' Something about that phrase didn't sit well with Sasuke.

The brunet, Makoto, continued to smile at him while talking over his shoulder to his friend. "Will you just chill, Keigo? Go back to the dorm if you're so worried."

'Go back to the dorm...that's a great idea.' Sasuke quickly spun on his heel and took a step back in the direction of his own room. But Makoto had reached out just as he was turning and latched onto his wrist.

"Where're you going, sweetheart? Stay and talk for a sec, will you?" Makoto said slowly, yanking Sasuke's wrist back towards him.

"Makoto!" Keigo insisted.

"Shut up and go back to the dorm!!" said-teen growled, then turned back to his captive. "What's your name, babe?"

Babe? 'Ew...' Sasuke wanted to throw up on the guy, but settled for glaring at him.

Makoto's smile slipped from his face when he saw the glare he was receiving from the girl. "Not talking, eh? What are you, shy? I can fix that..." He backed her up into the nearest wall and pinned her captive wrist above her head, holding the other with his free hand.

Sasuke gasped quickly when his back hit the wall and something inside him snapped. His knee connected with the boy's stomach and he lurched forward. Sasuke slid away from him and twisted an arm behind the boy's back, slamming him into the wall. "Don't touch me...ever." Sasuke growled.

Makoto chuckled softly, his face pressed against the wall firmly. "Alright, alright. You don't have to be so harsh..."

Sasuke frowned and shoved himself away from the boy, turning again to head towards his dorm. What he wasn't expecting, was for the boy to return seconds later, grabbing his wrist again and spinning him back towards the boy. Sasuke was shoved backwards and landed on his back, knocking the wind out of him. A second later, he felt a weight on top of his body and immediately knew that this Makoto guy hadn't given up yet. And neither had Sasuke, but his head was still spinning from the fall, he couldn't move.

"Makoto, stop it!" Sasuke heard Keigo shout. It sounded fuzzy.

"So you like to play rough, do you?" Makoto sneered, leering down at the girl underneath him. "Well, let's just see how rough we can get..."

Uzumaki Naruto stood in the bathroom, running his hands under the cool water flowing from the sink. He yawned loudly and turned off the water, drying them on a paper towel. It was 4:35, which means it was time for Naruto's early trip to the bathroom that he took every morning. The blonde boy lazily scratched his stomach as he exited the bathroom and lifted his other hand to yawn again.

"Nn?" he blinked when he saw three people in the middle of the hall in the boys' dorm. Once his eyes had focused more, he had recognized the trio as Makoto and Keigo, two of the trouble-makers in the school, and a dark haired girl he had never seen before. He soon also realized that the girl was obviously in need of help, considering her position on the floor underneath a boy. He quickly ran towards the group.

"Hey!! Just what do you think you're doing?!" Naruto exclaimed, causing both Keigo and Makoto to look towards him.

"Ah, great..." Makoto mumbled.

"Naruto...we were just-"

"Get off her...now!" the blonde commanded.

Keigo took a step back, but Makoto didn't move. If anything, he leaned down further on the girl, causing her to wince and attempt to squirm free.

"And what if I don't?" Makoto dared.

Naruto pounded his fist into the palm of his other hand, snarling, "I'll pound your face into raw hamburger meat, after calling the school board and getting you expelled for sexual assault!! How's that sound?!!"

Makoto didn't move for a moment, as if challenging Naruto's threat, then scoffed and stood up.

Sasuke immediately sat up the moment the other boy's weight was lifted.

Makoto smirked at Sasuke, causing him to involuntarily shiver. "See ya around, sweetheart." he cooed, leaning down and trailing a finger down Sasuke's face and chin. He stood and sent a glare at Naruto. "Freak." he mumbled, then disappeared behind the door to his dorm.

The two stood, or sat, in silence for a few seconds, then Naruto coughed lightly in his hand. "Aah...sorry about that. Those two are real jerks..." he rambled, scratching the back of his head lightly, then offered to help the girl up.

Sasuke stared at the hand offered to him and was tempted to take it, but he quickly pulled his hand back and placed it against the wall, using it to help himself up.

Naruto blinked at the girl's strange behavior. "So, uh...you're not hurt, are you?"

"No." Sasuke answered quickly.

"Oh, good." the blonde laughed nervously, then glanced at the girl. She had a dream-like look in her eyes as she stared blankly ahead. "So, where's your dorm? I'll walk you back..."

Sasuke's eyes instantly took on a look of panic, but he quickly dismissed it. "No, that's fine. I can go alone." That said, he turned and passed the blonde boy, walking swiftly towards his room. Seconds later he heard the an echo following his footsteps, and he quickly became annoyed. Sasuke was about to protest against the blonde but was cut off.

"So, what were you doing out of your dorm at this time of night? And in the boys' hall too..." the blonde asked.

Sasuke bit his tongue to keep from answering. Who was this guy that he felt the need to know the reasoning behind Sasuke's actions anyway? He didn't need to know! The raven sighed and stopped in the hall. "Why are you still following me?" he asked evenly.

"Eh? I'm walking you back to your dorm!" Naruto explained simply, after realizing that Sasuke had stopped a few feet behind him.

"I said I didn't need you to escort me." the raven gritted out, hands clenching at his sides.

The blonde narrowed his eyes slightly, then a gasp escaped his mouth suddenly, causing Sasuke to look up. "You..." the blonde gaped, "You're that girl from this morning."

3...

2...

1...

Shit.

"Ah!! Hey, where are you going?!!!"

The dark-haired girl had darted away so fast, Naruto had to do a double-take to make sure the girl hadn't suddenly disappeared. Instead, she just ran away. And damn, that girl can run.

"Hey!! Wait up!!!" the blonde called loudly, despite how early it was in the morning and by now the whole floor must have been awake.

"Don't follow me!" Sasuke shouted, making a mad dash towards his dorm.

Only 20 more meters. He could see the door. So close. So...

Ironic.

That rug just had to be placed there, hadn't it? At the top of the stairs, where you could wipe your feet before entering the dorm halls. In fact, why not make it a banana peel, make it even more comical! 'It's karma...it has to be.' Was Sasuke's final thoughts before his foot slipped on the rug and his body plummeted toward the hard floor. This was it. He could already feel his skull connecting with the ground, creating tremor that would rock his entire body and a numbing pressure inside of his head. He closed his eyes and braced for it.

And braced for it.

And...why was there a lumpy, albeit soft, floor underneath him instead of a hard, flat one? And why was there a pair of arms around his waist? And why was there yellow spikes poking at his eyes when he tried to open them.

'Karma...' Sasuke thought again as he heard a groan from under him.

"You know...you shouldn't run so fast. You could cause an accident." the blonde chastised, wincing as a headache pulsed through his brain.

The raven finally realized the...extremity of his position, meaning that he finally realized that he was lying atop another boy with their legs entangled in a suggestive manner. He gasped and immediately tried to lift himself, but found his waist locked in by a pair of tan, strong arms. "Nnh...let go!" he commanded, bracing his upper body on his arms.

"No," the blonde insisted. "You're just going to run away again! I want to talk to you!!"

"I don't want to talk to you! You have 5 seconds to let go, or I'll-"

"Will you stop freaking out?! God damn, just hear me out for 2 minutes!!"

"Not in a position like this I won't. You have 3 seconds left."

Naruto suddenly smirked and tightened his grip around the girl's waist, watching her face panic slightly. "Why?" he asked evenly.

"2 seconds." she growled.

"Does it bother you?"

"1 second..."

As Sasuke lifted a fist to knock this jerk into next year, their positions suddenly switched. The blonde used Sasuke's instability to flip him over onto his back, pinning his arms by his head and straddling his waist.

"Now will you listen?"

Sasuke was speechless. His wrists twisted experimentally only to find that he had no chance of escape. This boy was strong. He sighed and closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath, then opening them again. "2 minutes." he muttered.

The blonde's face lit up like a sun ray breaking through the crying clouds on a rainy day. It was...refreshing. No, that's not it. Well, it was but Sasuke wouldn't admit that. Either way the boy had a nice smile. Why was Sasuke thinking about his smile? He wasn't even smiling anymore, he was talking! Better listen to what he's saying...

"...wanted to apologize for before. I know we got off to a bad start, but I want you to know that I didn't mean anything by that! It was an accident, I swear. So...if you can forgive me, maybe we can start over?" The sun-kissed teen cracked a nervous smile down at Sasuke. This guy had some smile. It was almost blinding.

Sasuke stared up at him for a few seconds longer, before responding quietly. "Well, that depends..." he admitted.

"Depends on what?"

The raven's lips curved up slightly and his eyes became amused. "Depends on how long you plan to stay on top of me like this."

The blonde's face flushed a few shades, before he quickly backed off. "Ah! S-Sorry, I didn't mean to-"

Sasuke gave a small chuckle as he sat up and moved to get back on his feet, but stopped when he saw a tan hand placed in front of his face. He looked up to see the blonde boy smiling down at him again. That smile was...

Naruto blinked stupidly at the spot the raven was at momentarily, before she stood, without taking his hand, and began walking towards the girls' dorms. "Wah-?! Hey, wait!!"

He quickly ran after the girl just as she turned to face a door to her left. "Wait! Wait a sec!" he called, cutting in front of her and blocking the door.

She gave him an annoyed look and pulled back her hand that was reaching for the door handle.

"I just- uh...wanted to- uhm..." Naruto stammered for words, but decided against it and stuck out his right hand.

Sasuke stared at the hand outstretched to him for the third time that day. 'Maybe..just once I could...'

"Uzumaki Naruto." the blonde announced, flashing that million-dollar smile once again.

It couldn't help but bring a smile to the raven's own face. It cracked through his pale mask for merely a second before he bit his lower lip to hide it. He grasped the blonde's hand in his own. "Uchi-" Sasuke quickly bit his tongue and covered his mouth with his free hand.

"Huh? Something wrong?" Naruto asked.

'Shit.' Sasuke had to come up with something quick. "U..uchiki...na."(1)

The blonde gave him a confused look.

"Sorry...I'm just...shy, I guess. I'm not very good at meeting people. My name is Yuzuru Saki." Please buy it, please buy it, please buy it, please buy it...

A look of realization dawned on the blonde boy and he let out a loud, "Oh! Okay, I get it. Nice to meet you!"

Sasuke shook his hand awkwardly, pondering how intelligent this guy really was.

"Well, I have to get back to my dorm. I'll see you later, then!" The blonde waved and bounced off towards the boys' dorm again.

Sasuke watched him go, then opened his door and leaned against it once he was inside, sighing loudly and pulling off his wig. He wiped the back of his hand against his forehead and gritted his teeth. "Damn...that was close." He couldn't believe how many openings he had left on his body back there. He let himself be cornered and pinned down twice. One of the boys had even advanced on him and if that Uzumaki kid hadn't showed up when he did...

Sasuke shivered.

He just about blew it back there. If not for Naruto, Sasuke would have been found out. He owed the blonde his life. Literally, because this school was the only thing stopping his homicidal brother from hunting him down and disemboweling him in front of a public building. Nonetheless, Sasuke had to step up his defenses. Asuma was right when he said that being a girl wasn't the same as being a boy. He was receiving different vibes from the other students than he did when he wasn't feigning his gender. He was going to need to be on-guard all the time, or at least for the first few weeks of school.

Naruto unlocked the door to his room and stepped out of his shoes on the inside of the door.

"Hey, there you are! I was just about to get off my butt to come after you. You fall in or something?" Naruto heard a loud voice call from the bedroom.

It was his roommate Kiba. He sat on the couch watching in front of the two beds watching TV.

Naruto chuckled and sat down next to the brunet. "Aww, how cute! You were worried about me, weren't you?"

Kiba lifted a foot and kicked Naruto off the couch, receiving a satisfying thud when the blonde hit the floor. Kiba watched the boy sit up laughing, he seemed unusually happy today. He planted a foot against Naruto's forehead, but instead of pushing him back, he just held him there.

"What's with your face?" he asked, leaning his head against his hand that rested on the arm of the couch. Kiba was never good with questions, in fact, he had a tendency to be crudely blunt at times.

"What? What's wrong with my face?" Naruto asked, using the palms of his hands to press against his cheeks and distort his mouth in a goofy manner.

Kiba laughed, which made Naruto grin widely at him, then shook his head. "No, dude. You came in all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and wearing a huge grin. Something good happen?"(2)

The blonde boy blinked then averted his bright eyes to the floor. "No. Not really." he mumbled smiling.

He received another kick from Kiba, who had a knowing grin on his face when Naruto looked up to glare at him. "There's no use trying to hide it, dude. I know you like the back of my hand."

"You haven't washed your hands since the 5th grade." Naruto joked.

"Hey!!" Kiba launched himself at the blonde, educing a wrestling match between the two which ended in Naruto face down on the floor with his arms twisted behind his back. "Now, tell me what happened!"

"Ow!! Okay okay! Let go!!" Naruto whined.

Kiba backed off then resumed his position on the couch, waiting for Naruto's answer.

"Well," the blonde hesitated. "I met a girl."

"Oh god! She didn't agree to let you fuck her, did she?" Kiba received a pillow to the face seconds later.

"I'm serious!!" Naruto shouted.

"Okay, okay! Sorry!"

Naruto pouted for a few seconds then continued. "Anyway, some guys were picking on her, and she looked like she needed help, so I stepped in."

Kiba's eyes suddenly took on a hint of worry. "And how did that go?" he asked.

"It went fine. They went back to their dorms right away, so I didn't do anything really. I just, kind of, stood up for her, I guess." Naruto scratched his chin and looked to the side.

"Who were the guys picking on her?"

"Makoto and Keigo from class 3-B."

The brunet sighed and stepped of the couch, sitting next to Naruto on the floor. He placed a hand on the bright blonde hair and ruffled it a little. "You have to be careful, Naruto. You don't want something to happen like-"

Naruto swatted away Kiba's hand and shouted, "But I didn't do anything! I just threatened them a little!"

"I know. And it's good that you didn't do anything, or you might have lost it again." Kiba raised his voice a little. It was really the only way to get Naruto to listen to him.

The blonde frowned and looked away. So he had a little bit of a criminal record. It was no big deal and it happened over 2 years ago. Every once in a while his temper would flare, but it wasn't anything serious like before. He attended anger management every Wednesday, and still does, and it helped. Why didn't people trust him anymore? Even his friends seemed cautious around him after the incident.

"Whatever," Naruto stood from the floor and made his way back towards the door. "I'm going down to get breakfast."

"Well, hold on. I'm almost ready so I can come with. Just give me a few min-"

"Don't worry about it." Naruto suddenly slammed the door closed before Kiba could finish.

The brunet stared at the solemn door before scratching his head in a stressed-out manner. 'Maybe that was a bit much...' He sighed and finished getting his uniform together so he could catch up with the boy in the cafeteria, maybe even apologize.

"Naruto..."

(1) "Uchiki na." It's an adjective meaning shy or bashful. I needed a word that started with "Uchi" so it could be used as a slip-up, as he was about to say "Uchiha," but able to be recovered to. Yeah...whatever.

(2) Bright-eyed and bushy tailed. I'm sure you've heard this term before, but my mom used to use it all the time to describe me when I'm in a really good mood.

Hey hey! You stuck around for Chapter two! That's a good sign, yes? So, now we have some of my plot bunnies beginning to dig their way to the surface. Hur. Hur. And our poor Saki is already having boy problems, though not quite the kind she was expecting, and it's not even the start of her first day of class! See you guys next chapter!!!

(P.S. I have a three-day break in school soon, so I'll try to get the next chapter out sooner! REVIEW!! kthnxbai)
