Chapter 2: Notice me, Professor
The alarm was ringing for a while. Naruto just didn't want to get off the bed.
"Damn it… Kiba didn't stay here this time to wake me up…" he murmured and closed his eyes again. It was ok if he didn't go to class this time, it's not as if he had Sasuke's class. After all, it was Thursday… Or wasn't it. Naruto checked his phone to make sure what day it was. The minute he opened the screen his eyes popped out of his head.
"HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT'S FRIDAY! MY BABY IS WAITING FOR ME!" he yelled and jumped out of the bed. He quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower. There's no way he would let his baby see him in this kind of shitty hangover state.
"Damn it, I shouldn't have gone to the bar with Kiba yesterday!" he scolded himself and got inside the bathtub, still feeling a bit dizzy from all the alcohol he drunk. The water was freezing cold, but Naruto had no choice. He had to be clean and fast.
"F-f-f-f-fuck you, K-k-k-k-kibaaaa…" he murmured, trembling from the cold water. As soon as he was done with that, he brushed his teeth and went to his wardrobe to find some clothes.
"Let's go with cute and sexy today." He said excited and picked some black, ripped, skinny jeans, a black tank top and an orange plaid shirt. He quickly dressed up, grabbed his back and got out of his apartment. He run as fast as he could to the bus stop and managed to get on the bus right on time. He sat in a seat and sighed in relief. A minute later and he would have missed his baby's first hour.
Sasuke had reached the university and was currently inside his car in the parking lot. He was there for about ten minutes and he still didn't want to go out. The reason for that…
"GOOD MORNING, PROFESSOR UCHIHA!" he heard a loud voice from outside the car and almost spilled his hot coffee everywhere. He turned slowly with wide eyed to face the loud terror outside the car. Uzumaki Naruto was his source of headaches for the past two months and especially today he was the last thing he wanted to see. On the other hand though, he was also the only thing he wanted to see. Sadly though, it seemed like Naruto wasn't in a bad mood like last time, which meant that he wouldn't shut up for the following five hours. He sighed desperately and got outside of the car. The young blonde boy was waiting for him with a huge smile on his face, almost like a dog with a wagging tail. Sasuke shot him an annoyed glare.
"Seems like all your troubles vanished, considering how loud you are first thing in the morning." he commented and started walking away. Naruto followed him happily.
"You told me to deal with it and I did… I mean I still am. I'm dealing with it. Right now. Generally." He said and Sasuke could notice a hint of blush on his cheeks.
"Good. Can you deal with it, right now, generally, away from me?" he asked him and checked his phone. For fuck's sake, he was already checking the time.
"No can do. Somehow, I always feel calm when I'm around you and I can think better this way." the blonde boy said in a somehow proud way. Sasuke arched an eyebrow.
"So you can actually do that?" he told him sarcastically and scoffed. Naruto pouted.
"Don't make fun of me!" he yelled in his ear. Sasuke's eyes widened a bit in surprise before he turned to glare the boy.
"Keep your voice down for once." he strictly said and rubbed his head. He wasn't much older than the boy, but it felt as if he had to deal with a five-year-old.
"Can I ask you something, Professor Uchiha?" Naruto suddenly said in a serious tone. Sasuke looked at him.
"Is it bad to have feelings for a person of the same gender?" he asked him while staring at nothing. Sasuke looked at him confused.
"Where did that come from? I never thought you were the type of person to care about such things…" he told the younger boy. Naruto chuckled in a sad way.
"I'm glad I look that way to others… But sometimes I do wonder if things would be better if I just liked girls… I just get really bothered by these thoughts, you see." he told him and for a minute there Sasuke wanted to pat the boy on the head.
"It's fine to be who you are. There's nothing wrong with it. If someone finds it wrong then he just doesn't know anything about that. There's a lot of bibliography in case you want to research it. If you have any questions you can always ask me." he told him. Naruto looked at him with sparkling eyes and hugged him excitedly.
"Thank you so much, Professor! I'll make sure to search everything about it!" he told him and smiled brightly at him. Sasuke was frozen and couldn't take his eyes of that face. He just stared at him dumbfounded and tried his best not to attack the annoying yet adorable blonde boy. Naruto seemed to realize how awkward that situation was and quickly let go.
"I uhh… I-I'm so s-sorry…" he mumbled, blushing like crazy and quickly run away. Sasuke remained there for at least three minutes trying to grasp the situation. Things were getting bad. He had to put some distance between him and his student immediately if he didn't want this to get out of hand.
Naruto was running as fast as he could. His face was burning and his heart was about to explode. What the hell did he do? Did he actually do that? Did he just hug him for no reason? Was that the best day of his life or not? Suddenly he spotted his two dear friends in the distance.
"HINATAAAAAAAAAA! KIBAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" he yelled and jumped on top of the brunette boy, falling on the ground.
"The hell man!? What's wrong with you?!" he yelled at him and pushed him off him.
"You'll never guess what happened! HINATA!" Naruto yelled again and grabbed the poor girl by the shoulders. "Your advice worked! We were talking just now and not only did he listen to me, but he also gave me an advice and I EVEN HUGGED HIM… Although, I'm not sure if he appreciated that, but DAAAAMN! THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!" he said as fast as he could. His two friends were looking at him as if he was an alien, but in the end Hinata just smiled sweetly at him and hugged him.
"I'm so happy for you! Just keep it like that!" she told him happily. Kiba was still rubbing his butt from the fall.
"Yeah, congratulations on having a normal conversation with your teacher. Way to go buddy." He told him sarcastically. Naruto glared at him.
"Don't ruin my happiness, you asshole!" he said and started analyzing the whole situation to Hinata. Kiba rolled his eyes, but also stayed there to listen to his stupid friend.
About ten minutes later it was time to go to class. Naruto got inside first, as always, and greeted Sasuke with his usual cheerful smile. This time though, it seemed like Sasuke had reverted to his usual self and he simply ignored him. But this time Naruto was also even more determined so he wasn't going to give up like that again.
"Professoooor, you are supposed to greet us back when we greet you." he told him and approached him. Sasuke sighed.
"I greeted you in the morning, now sit down." he told him strictly. Naruto smirked mischievously.
"No, you didn't. You never told me good morning." he said and waited with a big smile. Sasuke glared at him.
"Sit down, Uzumaki." he told him again. Naruto didn't move an inch and kept on waiting with that smile on his face.
"Uzumaki!" Sasuke said even more strictly.
"Give up, Professor… He won't leave unless you say good morning. He used to do the same thing to me." Shikamaru said. Shikamaru was always quiet and never really talked to anyone. Not because he didn't want to, but mainly because he was bored and he found it troublesome. It had taken some time for Naruto to finally become friends with him. Sasuke sighed.
"Good morning, Uzumaki. Please, have a seat." he mumbled, obviously annoyed, but Naruto seemed more than satisfied with that.
"Yes, sir!" he said and quickly went to his seat. It seemed like this way he would leave him alone easier, so Sasuke decided that greeting Naruto was something unavoidable. At least he wouldn't get persistent this way, which led Sasuke to other kinds of thoughts. He shook his head, trying to get rid of these thoughts and quickly started the lesson.
Things generally went easy that day and Naruto didn't ask too many questions, which was something unusual. It seemed that actually greeting him and having a small chat with him was enough to shut him up for the rest of the day. Still, there was something bothering Sasuke for a while. Even though Naruto generally paid attention to the lesson, he would often see him scribbling on his notebook. Sasuke knew that the young boy liked drawing and he was actually quite good at it, after some research he did on that notebook while Naruto wasn't in the class. But, still, this time he was drawing more passionately than other times. The first thing that passed through Sasuke's mind was to check Naruto's notebook at break time, but he quickly shoved that thought away. He had told himself that he had to put some distance between him and the boy and looking through his stuff wasn't really going to help with that. His curiosity, though, made him look at him all the time, which led to a lot of eye contact that day. Sasuke couldn't deceive himself anymore. Things were going really bad for him…
"Kiba, did you see that too? Please tell me that you did!" Naruto asked his friend excitedly when they were at the cafeteria. Kiba arched an eyebrow.
"See what?" he said with a mouth full of food.
"I'm talking about Sasuke! He was totally looking at me all the time!" he said as calmly as he could – meaning really loud.
"Dude, chill. Although he did seem to be looking at our direction quite a lot today." Kiba said, finishing his sandwich. Naruto's eyes were sparkling.
"I know, right?! Damn, I really don't want this day to end! It's the best day ever!" he said happily and started jumping up and down.
"Wow, calm down, Spongebob. How about you go back to your Plankton and leave alone with Hinata for a while?" Kiba told him. Naruto stopped and stared at him dumbfounded.
"Dude, you like Hinata?" he asked him surprised.
"And then you call me an idiot… Just go already, she's coming!" he told him sarcastically. Naruto nodded his head and left quickly. His Plankton was waiting for him.
Once he reached the class he decided that it would be fun to surprise his cool Professor a bit. He carefully opened the door, so that he wouldn't hear him, but what Naruto saw was something different from what he was expecting.
"What are you doing, Professor?" he asked dumbfounded. Sasuke jumped a bit and put down Naruto's notebook before he turned to face him. They both stared silently at each other surprised, one in a good way and the other in a really bad way. A huge smile was about to form in Naruto's face, but Sasuke quickly found an excuse.
"Uzumaki! I've been wondering what you've been doing in class all day today, but I never expected to see my portrait in there. No matter how good you are with a pencil, this is not the place for sketching! Don't let this happen again!" he told him strictly and quickly moved to the front desk. Naruto was taken a bit aback, but something inside him made him feel like this was not just a scolding. He softly walked closer towards his Professor and looked up at him with his big sapphire eyes sparkling.
"You know, Professor… I'm not good only with pencils… Maybe I should show you the rest of my talents as well, seeing how interested you seem to be." he purred in a cute voice and softly placed his lips on his Professor's. Sasuke's eyes widened before he grabbed the younger boy from his waist and pulled him closer for a deep kiss. It took him a few minutes to realize where he was and what exactly he was doing. That moment he quickly pushed the boy away. Naruto's face was literarily burning up and his eyes looked hazy. Sasuke was panting hard, trying to calm both his heart and some other parts of him down. He glared sharply at his student and took a step back.
"Don't you ever – EVER- do that again." he told him and quickly got out of the classroom. Naruto remained there, touching his lips and trying not to forget that incredible sensation.
