Temple- *giggles*

Kenny- Wonder when She'll wake up?

Temple- Hopefully when we're far away.

Kenny-Embers gonna kill you

Temple-You brought the firecrackers, paint, eggs, and pudding!

DISCLAIMER- I don't own Naruto, but if Ember wakes anytime soon… she did it!

Kenny-Swearing

*SQUEE*

Naruto was as still as he could be. Sasuke tried to coax him into responding almost desperately. What was he supposed to do? This was Sasuke, his new friend, the kid who he felt like he knew forever but had only known for half a day. This wasn't right! This wasn't supposed to feel right! He just met Sasuke! NONE OF IT MADE SENSE! As if realizing Naruto's panic Sasuke stopped and backed away.

"Sorry…" his voice was hoarse.

"…" Naruto didn't know what to say.

"You don't have to study with me, I'll ask Kakashi to switch us with some other partner."

Sasuke waited to see if Naruto would say anything but the blonde had suddenly found his shoes more interesting than conversation. With a defeated sigh Sasuke continued walking down the vacant road towards his home, leaving Naruto behind. The younger stared down, counting the scuff marks on his shoes several times before looking up. Sasuke was gone and storm clouds had moved in. When the first drop landed on his cheek like a teardrop Naruto finally began walking back towards the city and his own apartment.

*SQUEE*

Naruto plopped down in his seat beside Kiba with a tired look on his face. Hoping to take advantage of their teachers tardiness Naruto rested his head on his arms and fell asleep. To his extreme dismay his friends would have none of it. Not while he looked ready to cry.

"Naruto are you okay?" Sakura asked after the not-so-subtle prompting of Kiba.

"Just tired…"

"Why didn't you sleep in detention like usual?" Kiba questioned.

"The teacher is creepy. Orochikaku or some weird shit like that," Naruto yawned, his eyes still closed.

"That's Tenten's teacher, Orochimaru," Sakura informed.

"Hey, where's Sasuke?" Kiba asked.

Naruto couldn't help but look up and around for the raven boy. True to his word Sasuke wasn't there. Naruto felt as if his heart was squeezed painfully. He didn't understand the feeling but when Kakashi walked into the room the blond felt his heart drop. Through the rest of the day Sasuke did not show up and Naruto's mood never lightened. When English came around Kakashi asked if Naruto wanted to switch but the blond simply shook his head and mumbled something about it not being fair to pair up two different boys for a make out scene when he was the gay one. Somehow Naruto suspected Kakashi had already known this. Naruto also received another detention for sleeping. The next detention wouldn't be held for a few more days so Naruto returned home on time.

Things past like this for two more days, and each one Naruto was more tired and cross than the day before. The third day when Naruto walked in he immediately spotted the stoic raven. He stood there for a second staring until Sasuke glanced up at him. When this happened Naruto turned away and walked towards his seat beside Kiba and Sakura. The two friends exchanged worried looks.

"Naruto, why aren't you sitting with Sasuke? A few days ago we never saw you apart," Wondered Sakura.

"Yeah man, it was like you two were an old married couple," Kiba snickered.

"Don't say that," Naruto snapped.

"I was just kiddin' Naruto, calm down," Kiba said hurridley, raising his hands defensively.

"Unless… Naruto, are you gay?" Sakura asked hesitantly. Naruto immediately blushed.

"O.M.G! YOU ARE!" Sakura shouted.

"Keep your voice down," Naruto hissed.

"Sorry, but you are gay then?" Sakura tried again.

"Kinda… I mean I've dated a boy once but I've dated girls before and since then,"

"Are you and Sasuke, ya know, dating?" Kiba asked.

"No," Naruto said quickly.

"Then why are you avoiding him?" Sakura asked.

"Why aren't you freaking out!!? I'm gay you two," Naruto growled, trying to change the subject.

"Don't you know the saying: A gay guy is a girl's best friend?" Sakura smiled.

"I've seen Akumaru hump just as many male dogs as he has females, tables, and other people's legs," Kiba snickered, an indignant growl came from Kiba's bag.

"So your okay with it?" Naruto asked.

"Of course!" His two best friends said in unison.

"Now go get your man Naruto!" Sakura cheered, pointing at Sasuke.

"H-he's not my man…" Naruto blushed.

"Then why are you avoiding him?" Sakura questioned firmly, "You do like him right?"

"Yeah, I think I might. I don't know. Is it right to like him so much after meeting him?"

"Love at first sight! So kawaii!" Sakura glomped Naruto.

"I thought that was only in movies," Kiba scoffed.

"No, my parents were in love at first sight, they believed they were soul mates," Sakura beamed.

"Right…" Kiba chuckled.

"Naruto, you have to go and confess you love for Sasuke, right now," Sakura ordered. ((see people she ain't so bad, it was the long hair I think, blocked her good sense of judgement!))

"Confess his what?" Kiba choked, "Sakura you sound like one of those actresses on those soap operas my old babysitter used to watch."

While his friends ranted Naruto thought about his inner turmoil. He'd hate to admit his feelings for Sasuke but it almost physically hurt to stay away from the Uchiha. Was Sakura right? Could it have been something so ridiculous as love at first sight? Naruto glanced over to Sasuke. The dark haired boy was glaring holes into the blackboard. Naruto frowned and studied the pale features of his friend. The angular jaw, the light pink lips, the dark, endless eyes, long bangs framing his perfect… OH NO (((YES)))! Naruto was in love with Sasuke Uchiha!

By the time Naruto came out of his shock induced stupor the bell had rang for lunch and his friends were waiting for him. All throughout lunch all he was able to do was pick at his food. Even if he had tried to eat any of it he would probably vomit. His stomach was doing flip flops and he couldn't help the sweet smile from trying to inch across his face. Of course his friends now knew about his sexual preferences (NO PREFERENCE! JUST SASUKE) and were fine with it.

"Naruto, look," Tenten pointed towards the table where Sasuke had sat alone. Well, he had been alone. Ino had walked over to sit across from him. She flipped he long hair and giggled. Sasuke paid her little attention but Naruto's blood was boiling.

'Whore' Naruto thought to himself.

"That bitch is hitting on your Sasuke," Sakura hissed.

"Cat fight," Kiba snickered as fire entered Sakura's glare.

"My guess is your planning on going over there and clawing the girl's eyes out," Shikamaru sighed with little enthusiasm.

"Damn straight," Sakura snarled, "She can't just take Sasuke away from Naruto!" Said blond blushed fiercely.

"Sakura, you lack any tact," Said Shikamaru.

"You tell her pineapple head!" Kiba cheered.

Shikamaru shot a half-hearted glare at Kiba before sighing, "I have a better idea…"

*SQUEE*

"HEY INO-PIG! YOU BETTER STAY AWAY FROM SASUKE!" Came a snarl. Sakura was storming over to the table, her shoulder's squared and her fists balled.

"What are you gonna do to stop me Billboard brow!?" Ino barked back.

"Slut!"

"Big forehead!"

"Whore!"

"Bitch!"

"Mayakashi!"

The two girls leaped at each other snarling like animals. If it were a cartoon then one of those little scribble balls would have appeared to block out some of the really harsh punches been thrown. It was hard to tell who was biting what and where one fist ended and skin began. During this Kiba snuck in and yanked Sasuke out of his seat.

"What the fuck Inuzuka," Sasuke snarled.

"Trust me, your life is on the line, and mine too." Kiba hissed while pulling a confused Sasuke from the scene.

Kiba ran out of the cafeteria and down a few halls. Sasuke was seriously wondering if he would have to get stitches where the dog boy was tearing his arm out of his socket. His eyes widened when Naruto appeared around the corner. Kiba slowed down and Naruto grabbed Sasuke's other hand. Before Sasuke could say anything he was being towed again. It didn't matter as much this time, maybe because the love of his life was holding his hand. Naruto suddenly turned and pulled Sasuke into an almost-empty room. Kakashi was standing by the door with the keys.

"Thanks Sensei," Naruto grinned.

"Thank your friend Shikamaru for the bondage tips…" Kakashi chuckled darkly as he made his way out of the room. Naruto locked the door behind him. Sasuke stood idly.

"What's going on? Inuzuka said my, quote, life is on the line," Sasuke finally said after a few awkward seconds.

"Oh yeah, well, Kiba can overexagurate," Naruto chuckled, scratching the back of his head nervously, "I'm glad he did though."

"Why? Earlier you wanted nothing to do with me," Sasuke said bitterly.

"Who said that!? What am I supposed to do! We met once when we were little kids for like ten minutes! We hung out for a day, Sasuke! You kissing me after knowing each other for a full school day does not merit in a return kiss!" Naruto ranted.

"If all your gonna do is yell at me for what I've beat myself up over for the past three days, then I'm leaving," Sasuke growled.

"I wasn't done! I would have known you for four days but your whiny ass decided to skip two of 'em so now when I do this I can only say I've known you for two days and go against my own damn principles!" Naruto scolded before reaching up and yanking Sasuke's head down so their lips met.

The first meeting was gentle and a bit hesitant. Sasuke blinked in surprise before laying one hand at the small of Naruto's back and tangling the other in his sunny locks pulling the blond back to deepen the kiss. Naruto moaned, a skillful tongue snaked its way into his mouth and began to explore the wet cavern. Naruto sucked on the wet appendage and tried to shove it back inside Sasuke's own. Sasuke let out a husky chuckle at the blonde's attempts to be dominant. He pulled away and wiped the saliva from his chin.

"Damn I love you," Sasuke grunted. His words sent fire through Naruto's blood.

Naruto pulled at Sasuke once more, this time the kiss was fierce and hungry. Throwing caution to the wind Naruto wrapped his arms around Sasuke and started to grind against the elder's leg, his mouth seeking the junction between the raven's shoulder and neck. Sasuke pushed Naruto against the door and groaned at the feeling of the younger boy's arousal press against his leg. Sasuke's rational mind was being overridden with pleasure that centered around three things, Naruto, their current situation, and what type of bondage tips Shikamaru knew that would be useful. Sasuke dipped his fingers into Naruto's shirt and ran them up the blonde's torso. Naruto's breath hitched as Sasuke's thumbs brushed over his sensitive nipples. Naruto arched his back and let out a lustful moan, his hips gyrating wildly, and his breaths becoming pants. He was so close to completion. Just barely there, a few more seconds. Then… the bell rang.
