Chapter 2: Punishment

Sasuke's mind is all set for the kill, really.

"OI! WAKE UP, TEME!".

How could one person seriously be that loud? He blames that blonde woman for this.

"TEME! GET THAT LAZY ASS OF YOURS UP!".

Steam was slowly rising from his head. Is a roof capable of burning with anger heat?

"YOU'RE NOT EVEN MOVING AN INCH, EH?".

Oh, God! What he'd do to be able to kill him?

"YOU DESERVE THIS!".

Suddenly, light blinded the poor Uchiha as it went through his eyelids. Who's to blame him for his actions? A shout erupted in the mansion. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT, UZUMAKI!".

The blonde gave a victory grin. "Sup! Welcome back to the land of the living, teme! I had to inform you that I was heading out!".

"YOU WOKE ME UP FOR THAT FUCKIN' REASON!".

"Of course! So what kind of ramen do you want for breakfast? Oof!". A flying pillow suddenly decided to make its way to the blonde's face. "What the hell was that for, huh?".

"Why the fuck did you wake me up for that!".

Naruto suddenly gave an evil smile then turned on his heel, leaving the room. "This is just the beginning of your sufferings, Uchiha...Oh! And if I were you, I wouldn't try making a run away from me! I might take long...need to get some other stuff at home...see ya, teme!".

A door slam was the only sound Sasuke heard to signal that the blonde had left. He grumbly placed a pillow on top of his head, shielding himself from the very bright sunlight, as he cursed the blonde woman also known as the Godaime Hokage.

Few minutes ticked by, and the raven hair knew that the pierced light from a while ago had already infected him to consciousness. Gaaahh! Damn dobe! Never mind what he said yesterday that he missed the dobe's childlike personality. He missed nothing of him. Might as well get up!

The young Uchiha headed for the kitchen and made himelf some tea. So far, it hasn't been 24 hours yet, and the blonde is already giving him some serious headache. Just last night, the dobe wouldn't stop yapping about his unfortunate mission, and just when the Uchiha thought he would soon be able to get some shut eye, the blonde informed him that he'd stay in his room, whining more, until he'd be drained of energy. Oh boy was that a long night! You wouldn't even believe how much energy is stored into that blonde dobe. Sasuke's attempts to make the blonde leave his room was useless . Soon, his sleep only came to him about during midnight...not! The blonde was a noisy sleeper even if they're one room away, making Sasuke really wonder if the wall that separates them was really that thin and if Naruto was doing things on purpose.

"Gaaah!", Sasuke grumbled. He could already feel the bags under his eyes and the weight of no sleep at all. Aspirin. Yeah, that's what he needed. Oh...right. Nothing but tea in the house. The raven can't believe his luck. Well, it was his fault anyway. Before they headed for his mansion last night, Naruto had asked him if there's anything he wanted to buy. Through his annoyance of the blonde's annoyed chatter, he didn't bother to speak a word.

The Uchiha just began to massage his temples. It soothed him a bit. Well, he needed a better place to rest other than the cold chair he was sitting on. He slowly made his way to the couch and lie down. It would probably be best to rest while that dobe's gone!, Sasuke thought, I just hope he'd come back a bit later... With that, the raven-hair fell into slumber.

Naruto leapt through roofs with a grin just like always. I pissed of that teme real good, didn't I? I wonder how long it will take it him to talk...seriously, he really needs that aspirin soon... The blonde chuckled under his breath as he made his way to his favorite place in Konoha, Ichiraku's.

"Sup, Teuchi-san! Ayame-san! Some pork ramen, please!".

"Naruto-kun! Nice to see you! You just came back from a mission right?", Ayame asked.

"Yup! Why? What's the matter?".

"It's on us today...", the girl said with a smile.

The blonde blinked. "You's do that?".

Both Ichiraku employees nodded with an amused smile.

Naruto soon shot his fists into the air. "Alright!".

"Naruto, what's with that bag of instant ramen?", Teuchi inquired, seeing the packed items, "Shouldn't that be the one you're eating?".

The kitsunce pouted. "Awww! But nothing beats your ramen, Teuchi-san".

The older man gave a smile, then headed back to the boiling noodles, then presented a bowl to the awaiting blonde. "1 pork ramen...with extra pork...enjoy!".

The blonde soon started to chow down on his meal while saying something incoherent like, "Thansh Chuchi-schan!".

After some few minutes and 2 stacks of bowls of 10, Naruto began patting his satisfied belly, and began to take his leave as he waved, saying, "I needed that! 1 stack for what I missed during my mission, and the other stack for my current mission...". He rolled his eyes.

"Oh, Naruto?", Ayame called out in a low voice.

The blonde turned to the girl with a smile still intact. "Hm?".

"Uhhh...I'm not sure if we should bring this up...but...we're sorry...for...uhhh...what happened...".

The smile was quickly replaced by a thin line, until the blonde's bangs already covered his now darkened face, while his fists clenched on the plastic bag he held. It only took a few seconds for the blonde to get back to normal and give a small smile at the girl. "It's okay...please don't worry about me...", he said in a low voice.

With that, the 2 employees of Ichiraku's watched the blonde head off to who knows where.

After the encounter in the Ichiraku's, Naruto darted to the place where he always stayed to think ever since he was little - the Hokage's Mountain, on his father's head. He let go of the bag behind him and sat down, his knees wrapped in his arms while his face lie tilted on them, his eyes gazing on the whole of Konoha. After a while, he decided to lie flat, his back to the formed stone, as he watched the blue skies that mirrored his own eyes. He sighed. It's not their fault...of course they'd be worried...I shouldn't have looked like that...Damn! Now they'd have to worry a whole lot more...(sigh)...I thought I've moved on... The blonde started to shake his head as he slapped both hands to his cheeks and murmured, "Forget about this! I need a nap...I'll get my stuff later...". With that, caramel eyelids slowly went down.

Sasuke scrunched his eyelids as he began to gain his bearings. It seems it's already been about 2 hours he'd been sleeping...and damn he's starving. As much as he didn't appreciate the blonde's presence and it wasn't what he really needed as of the moment, he was the one who went out. I wonder what he said about trying to leave... Should he try? What the fuck! What made him want to try to do something out of sheer curiosity? Oh well...there's nothing else to do is there? Is trying to get out to search for him called leaving? Eh!

The raven-hair got up after a few seconds and headed for the door, dressed in a plain black shirt and black shorts. When he got out, nothing much really happened; it was as if Naruto just wanted to threaten him. The Uchiha pocketed his hands, until he felt the wind suddenly knocked out of him. What the hell?

"Naruto?".

There standing above him, holding a plastic bag of instant ramen on one hand, while the other was groggily rubbing his eye, was a certain blonde who had quite a punch. "You really had to try that, did you, teme? Who knew you'd get to that...trying things out and all...I mean, really!".

The Uchiha continued to stare at the blonde. "How did you know? And I believe you shouldn't blame me...you've been gone for 2 hours...where the hell have you been, anyways?".

Naruto just gave a small smile as he brought out an offering hand. "You spoke at last, teme?", the blonde gave a yawn, "2 hours? Seriously? Sorry...".

Sasuke took the tanned hand and eyed him suspiciously as soon as he stood up, and said in a low voice, "What's with you?".

"Hm?".

"You're suppose to make my life miserable...you should be saying things like...maybe you should have been there longer so I would have starved to death or something...", Sasuke shrugged.

"Oh...", Naruto suddenly lowered his eyes then turned back to the raven-hair and brought out a hand paired with a sincere smile. "Let's start over again...I'm sorry for the annoyance I gave you on purpose...you probably didn't want any part of this anyways, did you?".

Now Sasuke was suspicious. He raised his eyebrow, gazing at those cerulean eyes. "No, seriously, what's up?".

Naruto brought down his hand and suddenly wacked the raven-hair's skull, then headed back into the house. "You should be thankful, teme...I had other plans before I decided to make a peace treaty! Take the bag for me...there's an aspirin in there! We both know you need it! Don't deny it, Uchiha!".

Sasuke followed on after the blonde with a hand on his head, still unsure if he should believe in him, and what was in those hands of his.

As soon as Sasuke shut the door behind him, he went and searched for the blonde, only to follow a scent that directly came from the kitchen. "Naruto?".

The blonde's head suddenly spun to the source of the voice, then stepped aside and gave a yawn and said. "It's stir-fry beef and vegetables...unless you want ramen, that is?".

"You cook?". Sasuke made his way to the pan, not noticing the blonde suddenly stiffen, then tasted the meal, "Not bad...".

"Yeah...sure...I'll be in my room", he gave a yawn yet again, "Damn I'm really tired! I woke early to do stuff...but now that I hold no grudge on you, I guess there's no point...", Naruto said.

"Again, why?", Sasuke asked, turning to the blonde.

The blonde just shrugged. "Nothing's gonna happen, right? It's not as if we'd be relieved of this in the first place...", he said, until his voice slowly disappeared as he went further down the halls.

The raven hair just sighed and decided to start feeding his starving stomach.

After a few minutes, Sasuke cleared his dish away and decided to take that aspirin now. He headed for the plastic bag that was lying on the couch and found no aspirin. Was this another joke? But he said he's done with them... He frowned. There's probably more to what he said, though... He didn't know why he thought of that, but he just felt like it was right. The raven soon decided to head for the blonde's room, coming up with a theory that Naruto may have drunk some of the aspirin.

When he reached the room, he found the pills in the bedside desk. The dobe could really fall asleep quickly... He gave an exasperated sigh and slowly made his way. His eyes suddenly fell on the blonde. He didn't know why, but he was already silently examining his face. It gave a very calm and relaxed expression, an expression Sasuke probably only saw now. Sure the blonde was very happy with how he seems to annoy him, but he seems more peaceful whilst in slumber. Sasuke continued to gaze on the tanned face for who knows how long, until he froze.

The peaceful face suddenly scrunched up, brows arching as if signaling near awakening. The raven's heart suddenly increased its pace, afraid that the blonde might wake up and he was still there, staring...yeah, how how could you possibly explain that? I don't know, Naruto, my eyes landed on your face since I found it really interesting and cu - what? I - I didn't think that! Shit! Sasuke suddenly felt his face heat up as he slowly made his way out, pills at hand, until for a few seconds, Naruto didn't seem awake, instead, to the raven-hair's shock, tanned hands clenched into fists and tears sprung up.

To the Uchiha's confusion, his insides tied up in knots, feeling uncomfortable at the sight in front of him. Unconsciously, he made his way closer, a pale hand reaching up to dry the salty tears that fell. All of a sudden, things took a turn to 'what-the-hell!' road, and Sasuke made his way out.

Meanwhile, a certain blonde's tanned face lost its sad and troubled look, and was suddenly reverted back to its serene look, a smile visibly present.
