~Story 2: Nap Time~
Sasuke had just gotten home from training and was planning to take a shower, but instead he laid down on the cool wood floor of his porch and fell asleep. Meanwhile Naruto was getting ready to head home from training when he spotted a small book lying under one of the trees near by. Walking over he recognized it as Sasuke's sketch book and picked it up. He was the only person in all of Kanoha that knew about the Uchiha's secret passion for drawing. Tucking the book under his jacket he walked down the hill and headed toward his dark haired team mates house. He knocked on the door, but no one answered. Slowly reaching out he turned the knob and walked into the house.
"Sasuke? Are you here?" Naruto called. He walked through the house looking for his friend, but couldn't find him. Thinking that Sasuke might have decided to go somewhere for lunch Naruto headed back to the front door. As he walked past the sliding door that led onto the porch he noticed that it was open. He looked down at the floor and smiled. There on the floor of the porch lay Sasuke asleep in the sunlight. Naruto walked out onto the porch and knelt beside his sleeping friend. Reaching into his jacket he pulled out the sketch book and placed it next to the dark haired boy. Looking down at his friend as he slept Naruto couldn't help but smile. For some reason being around Sasuke made Naruto feel safe. He felt tired as he watched the slow rise and fall of his friend's chest and leaned forward resting his head on the older boy's chest. He moved the rest of his body so that he was laying beside Sasuke with his head on his chest and he let his eyes slowly drift shut. When Sasuke woke up he immediately noticed a slight pressure on his chest and looked down to see a mess of blonde hair. For a moment he considered pushing Naruto off of him, but when he went to move Naruto grabbed his shirt in a tight fist and rubbed his head against Sasuke's chest trying to regain his comfortable position from earlier. Sasuke couldn't help but notice how cute his friend looked bathed in sunlight and he smiled to himself. After a few minutes Naruto's eyes opened and he looked up at the dark haired Uchiha. Realizing that they were both awake now and he was still lying on Sasuke, Naruto got ready to jump up and apologize, but he felt Sasuke reach down and put a hand on his shoulder. Naruto stopped and looked up at Sasuke in surprise.
"It's been a while since I had company. You can stay Naruto; I don't mind." Sasuke said looking down at his blonde friend with a smile. Naruto returned the smile and closed his eyes again. As the blonde went back to sleep Sasuke reached over with his other hand and grabbed the sketch book from the spot where Naruto had placed it. He smiled as he held the book out in front of him.
"I knew you'd be the one to find this and bring it back to me. It's what I was hoping for." He said quietly, putting the book back down. He wrapped an arm around Naruto's shoulders and let himself drift off into sleep again.
