Day 1
Naruto was nervous, really, really nervous. He had to live with his secret love interest AND couldn't lie? This just plain sucks.
Sasuke and Naruto were walking from the Uchiha manor. They had just finished moving Naruto's few things into his house. The two decided to go out to eat seeing as neither felt like cooking, (especially in front of the other.)
"So let me guess," Sasuke said as they were walking, "you want ramen." That's all the blond idiot ate!
"Ew! I hate ramen." Sasuke stared at him, baffled. Naruto always ate ramen. That's the only thing he ate! Why would he eat something he didn't like?
"Then why do you always eat it?"
"Because ramen can't be spoiled by a jutsu unlike any other food. It's the only thing I'm able to buy that isn't rotten." He said with a chipper tone. Just because he couldn't lie doesn't mean he couldn't pretend to be happy. Naruto stopped and turned to Sasuke, "but I love Ichiraku's because the people are so nice! They feed me fresh food and don't call me a monster or anything!" He smiled and then continued walking as if nothing had just happened. Sasuke had an eerie feeling that he was going to learn a lot more about the blond than he had ever thought possible within the next three days.
"Okay then," Sasuke said while struggling to keep his monotone voice. "Let's go there." He pointed to a nearby restaurant that neither of the boys had noticed before.
"Sure, but I can't promise that I'll eat." The raven-haired boy gave a curious look before dismissing it as they made their way inside.
"Welcome to the Crook Brook Café!" an overly friendly waitress says. "Table for two?" Sasuke nodded and the waitress led the boys to a semi-booth in the back. On one side of the table was a cushiony booth for two and on the other was the wall. Secluded, forced to be together, and cozy…it was definitely made for couples. "My name's Suki and I'll be your server tonight. I'll return in a bit to take your orders." The boys nodded and took their seats, Sasuke on the inside and Naruto on the out.
"So, Sasuke, have you been here before?" Naruto asked trying to converse with the dark-haired boy who was really close to him. As if he wasn't nervous enough.
"No, you?"
"Of course not! I only go to Ichiraku's!"
"Why's that if you don't like ramen?"
"Because, they're the only ones who won't feed me rotten food." The blond said with an obviously forced smile.
"Why is that?"
"Everyone else thinks I'm a monster." Sasuke was about to question him more when Naruto cut him off. "Please don't ask why Sasuke. I don't want you to know yet." Said boy nodded in understanding.
Dinner was pretty quiet after that. None of the food was rotten. Apparently the girl didn't know who either of them were, which suited them just fine. They ate without talking and kept it that way until they were waiting for the bill. Sasuke, of course, was paying.
"So…" the normally silent Uchiha started in his own brilliant way. "What interests you?"
"Lots of stuff! Training, studying, practicing,…" oh god, it was a bad idea to ask him that. Now he'd never stop! Wait, what did he just say?
"Wait, what was the last one?" Sasuke said, now completely paying attention.
"You…" the blond said while blushing madly. He wished he could die now.
"Me?" Sasuke asked while leaning in closer. "I interest you?" Naruto managed to say yes before coughcough 'gracefully' falling out of the booth and onto the hard floor and startling the poor waitress.
"Uh, sorry to…interrupt things. Here's your bill." She quickly said before running of to take care of her minor nosebleed. Sasuke paid and then helped the blond up who instantly took off towards the Uchiha manor.
"Naruto," Sasuke says as he enters his living room. Naruto was sitting on the couch. He finally caught up to the boy after he had run away from the restaurant. "Naruto, are you alright?" Said boy turns and looks at him with another forced smile.
"No," he blatantly states, "I don't want you to know certain things about me, but you will eventually. This really sucks." Sasuke felt bad for him.
"Naruto," he says again as he moves to sit next to his blond friend. No, not friend, it's much more than that. He hadn't realized it before, but this is much more than friendship. "I'm sorry. I really wish I could help you." They sat in silence for a while before he continued. "Is there anything I can do to comfort you?" He hadn't ever had to comfort someone before, so he was clueless as to how to do it.
"Yes, but you won't want to do it."
"I'll do it, whatever it is." Sadly, Sasuke ad spent too much time around Kakashi and dirty, yet very appealing, thoughts entered his mind. Oh crap.
"Hold me, please." Naruto looked up into Sasuke's black eyes. The blond looked like he would cry. The raven grabbed the blond and held him tightly. He really was sorry for the bundle of sunshine in his arms.
"Anything, I'll do anything for you." It was true, too. He'd do anything to make Naruto happy. He missed that heavenly smile that made his stomach flutter with butterflies and made his heart race.
"Thank you, Sasuke." The blond said as he moved to sit back up, but was stopped. "Huh? What is it?"
"Naruto," Sasuke avoided looking anywhere near those hypnotizing blue eyes, "Do you…do you like me?"
"Oh, it's more than like, much more!" The blond's chipper voice said before he blushed a red that put Gaara's hair to shame. He then stood up and ran away into the maze known as the Uchiha manor. God must hate the poor blond.
"Naruto!" Sasuke called. He heard the blond enter a door, so he couldn't of gotten that far. 'Oh great,' he thought to himself, 'Only a dobe like him could get lost in this place.' That was an understatement. ANYONE could get lost in his house! "Naruto, where are you?"
"I'm not sure!" a muffled voice says from the other side of a nearby door, "I think I'm in your room….DAMN IT! WHY DO I KEEP ANSWERING?!" The raven-haired boy chuckled slightly at this. Naruto could be so cute sometimes….wait, did he just call Naruto cute?
Sasuke makes his way to his bedroom and opens the door to reveal a small blond boy cowering in the far corner by his bed.
"Naruto," blue eyes look up in fear, "I'm sorry."
"It's fine," his voice cracks, "I just really wish I hadn't said that."
"Why not?" Sasuke asks as he sits on the corner of the bed by Naruto.
"I wanted it so that if I ever decided to confess my feelings that I'd do it by choice, not like this."
"Well, it still can be. You haven't actually said the words."
"Thank you," the blond then dove into Sasuke's arms. "I love you. I've been in love with you for a long time and I've never had the courage to say it!"
"I love you, too." Seeing as they were 'overcome by emotions' AND because they were now on a bed together they decided to 'show their love.' Bow chicka wow-wow!
Well, Day 1 seemed all right. Day 2 will be a little more…interesting. Mwahahahahaha! Or actually…Kukukukukuku! Sorry for not having a lemon and for maybe rushing it, but it makes sense later on. I'll try to update this weekend, but it really depends on when I'm home alone. Like I said on my page my mother and I share a computer and if she sees this stuff…I'll be dead. Ja ne! I hope to update soon!
